1281  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Deutsche Bank predicts cryptocurrency could replace fiat by 2030. on: December 28, 2019, 01:32:53 PM
2030 is about ten years from now. And definitely 10years is really a promising year for cryptocurrencies and bitcoin in particular to make more difference in the financial market. The last 10years of bitcoin has  been progressive so far. I believe it may replace fiat by 2030 if not totally maybe 50% of it.
For me 2030 is still early for cryptocurrencies, having it now seems to be broken. I have been dealing with digital payment processors, note that it does not use any crypto yet but it always has a problem or error, some kiosk are not even working or if it does it sometimes fail. Indeed the the decade of bitcoin and other crypto has been progressive and changed different aspects in terms of financial but 10 years from now seems unclear for crypto to replace the fiat.

After I knew China is doing digital fiat, it seem possible to see the adoption of digital currencies in less than 5 years actually. And its not just China that is doing it right now, several countries express interest into digital currency. If you could related what happen to internet adoption, it did took a decade but after people learned about its potential its been adopted everywhere down to the smallest business. I say 10 years is even too long starting from now.
1282  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Vs ETH Vs XRP Vs LTC which one will you invest and why in 2020? on: December 27, 2019, 09:14:30 PM
I personally feel these are the four best coins available for investment in 2020.

My first preference will always be Bitcoin and in 2020 I plan to accumulate more every moth systematically. 50 perecent of my total investment will be into Bitcoin, the reason is halving.

Since I expect the price of Bitcoin to rise in 2020, I also expect the same for ETH , XRP and LTC. I will divide the rest of 50 perecent investment equally to these three.

I am not planning to invest everything in one go. I will invest every month to get different positions at different price point. What do you guys thinks?

Do you also agree with the choice?
I would not expect the prices of alts to rise along with Bitcoin. Bitcoin gets projects, investors, and attention. Altcoins used to have that stuff, but they disappointed people, so there does not seem to be a reason to give them a second chance. Okay, Ethereum is alright, I guess, but the latter two don't look to me like they're gonna make it. I'd invest in Bitcoin and Bitcoin only. I mean, I have minor investments in LTC, IOTA, XRP, TRX and perhaps a couple of smaller coins I don't even remember since 2017, and I'm not selling them, since it does not make any sense to me, but I'm not buying any alts anymore.

My personal favorite is Bitcoin and I am going to invest 50 percent of my total investment into it. But, I am also trying to diversify my portfolio and the coins that I have listed have been promising until now. I am still not sure about XRP, there are others that I might look into.

Those are just suggestions from them, you still can have XRP if you feel like its best to have it. You know, XRP is on the top of the chain and there is a reason why its been there for so long.  BTC will still be the first choice. ETH offers passive income this time when ETH2.0 is launched as well so its a good token to hold.

The reason why I shill for it is because I have some XRP which I bought since its price were less than $0.05,  but its true that XRP can be huge as well.
1283  Economy / Economics / Re: Coming Changes Bitcoin will be backing USA dollars on: December 27, 2019, 08:57:26 PM
The gold will crash and Bitcoin will be backing Up USA dollars so USA dollar will be tokenized and each USA dollar will be backed by bitcoins.

The Bitcoin was made to be new age gold so Bitcoin never meant to be money!


Its Coming 2020 and yes that will be happening



Aside this being written off as a conspiracy theory, I see no basis for this to happen at all. The current currency we have come to value is backed by gold. Take gold away from the currency, its as worthless as anything other piece of paper. Now to say gold is out of the picture, it would be something else maybe technology, power, science or any other precious metal but not bitcoin. For one reason that bitcoin is not a physical currency that can be stored in a location to attract value by such and because it cannot be 'owned' proprietary makes it another issue of concern. Lets focus on real issue in crypto space and not wishful thinking that would lead no where.

The currency we have today are not backed by gold, its just declared by the government to have a value. This happened during the time of Nixon as far as I know when there was an economic crash too. I could be wrong but the way government are printing more currency, its definitely not how it looks.

I don't think we can scratch the idea that BTC could be a reserve for fiat because after all, we don't value gold nor use it to buy something during economic crash. We are still going to resort to fiat until government says its worthless just like what happen to Zimbabwe.

Kevin does look like Ryan Gosling.

Moving to Decentralize tube sites are wise thing to do, the consequences though is that there isn't much traffic from them and monetizing will be much difficult compare to those with youtube and adsense account. Maybe this time they can just upload their content on youtube and at the decentralie exchange as well but consider introducing these PeerTube, LBRY, BitChute, and DTube to their youtube subscribers.
1285  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Top 3 Cryptocurrency Marketplaces on: December 27, 2019, 07:40:57 PM
I'm only aware of open bazaar but with open sea, why it is on number 1 on your article? And the same goes for the origin protocol. I don't know these marketplaces that you are suggesting.

Why not include the forum's marketplace categories? there are a lot of trades that's happening there.

A marketplace is a place where you can exchange crypto for products. Don't think about it as a place you exchange cryptos as that is more of an exchange concept.

Opensea - You can purchase ERC-271 tokens (items on the blockchain)

Origin Protocol and Open Bazaar - You can get items for your crypto.



When he mentioned marketplace the thing that came into my mind is exchange. I thought I'm gonna see binance on the list, so meaning marketplace mentioned is where you can purchase tokens or products that accept crypto tokens too.

Is these marketplace are well known to be honest never heard of it aside from Origin Protocol which come to my mind since Ive read of them before.

Same with me, when people mention the marketplace, people will immediately think that it is an exchanger and that immediately crossed is Binance or Huobi. Regarding opensea, I don't know him yet and maybe in the near future it will be a good marketplace for cryptocurrency adoption

Exchanges was also  the first in my mind when I read the article. Despite it being the top 3 as they only few of us knew except that Openbazaar. If all these three are going to survive when cryptocurrency can be massively adopted anywhere, this may just be a household name just like ebay or craigslist. But this is if they are going to be supported with fiat gateways.


1286  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What kind of crypto trading do you recommend with $50 investment? on: December 26, 2019, 08:42:45 PM

Not enough to trade and profit. $200 would be a considerable amount o begin trading on BTC/USDT probably just buy 1BNB with it so you can trade on binance. The only signal to watch out is the overbought and over sold thru RSI and I guess a trader will profit with little by little until the accumulated BTC are enough to trade with leverage.
1287  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Outside bitcointalk project exposition, on: December 26, 2019, 06:42:22 PM


Your team were accused of having a fake members and plagiarized content, its really hard to get away with such accusation when there are proof of it. Your team will have a hard time convincing investors to buy the token on exchange. Some teams actually give up when they are already painted with negative rep and accusations that is hard to dispute. You can take it outside bitcointalk but investors will find the page eventually if they search about the project.
1288  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: List of Coins that will start Staking features in 2020 on: December 26, 2019, 04:56:54 PM
It seems like a lot of great coins are starting to get into POS scheme. I am not a fan of stacking, because you need an insane amount of coins that you need to have and rewards are not worth it in my opinion.

Not for some tokens. For ADA you can stake just how much you can have, I saw a post in their thread they can stake with just 2K ADA on their wallet. And with its price right now that is just $0.04 you can afford to buy 5K more of it to ensure your profit when ADA's product will be launched. I'm sure the token will be valuable in the future. Its marketcap already is making its promise for its investors.
1289  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Potentially good project on: December 26, 2019, 03:06:55 PM

Projects like this only works if the team is honest but in reality we have no way of knowing that. Don't take it hard but its the truth.

Having a farm means its going to be a centralized project and when something happen to the farm everything gone back to zero, this farm is no way near to safety when it comes weather unlike having a POW coin. But check out the ZRcoin project. Its one example that project like yours can somehow be successful.
1290  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coins or Utility Tokens? on: December 25, 2019, 02:55:20 PM
If the new coin still will work as a store of value coin while no one is mining it, I'd just go for the token with utility that I can invest since it can be added  on DEX. Token build as ERC20 can be added on DEX, you can dumped them whenever you want. A coin developer will have to wait til an exchange will be interested in adding its coin. Both of them can be dumped eventually and all that will be left are the loyal supporters of the project ( likely the dev team)
1291  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 10 Best performing cryptos of 2019,what have you played? on: December 25, 2019, 02:11:25 PM
Ethereum is the best cryptocurrency that I played in this current year. When the Ethereum got crashed last february where its price is at around $100, I bought bag of them. These kind of crashed is the perfect opportunity to buy ethereum as much as we can. I manage to sell it at around June where its price became $330 per each. It gave me 200% plus profit in these kind of strategy. There are many momentum cryptocurrency in the year 2019 and many traders see that kind of opportunity.

Just an example how volatile even when the token had been supported by a lot of users here in the forum, its still going to be dumped since the early investors got it for less than $1 compare to the new investors coming into the market.  It did perform well in the first months but was dumped eventually since investors are now expecting its ETH2.0 I guess them dumping ETH is a chance for new investors to also join them staking by next year.

One coin that is very much interesting is the Chainlink (LINK) which has been also going up just like the Huobi Token(HT) competing BNB.
1292  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: List of Coins that will start Staking features in 2020 on: December 25, 2019, 09:13:54 AM

There are some other tokens that I think are also going to be staking too but not on the list, VTX I think will also be staking. Enigma isn't very popular but it was create 2017, it had survived the bear market and I guess it will have bright future. Cardano I think already allow those who had their ADA on their wallet during the snapchat. Must be time to invest on it to stake your coins.
1293  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Halving Block Reward Countdown on: December 22, 2019, 06:52:50 PM


The more I wait the more it feels 145 days to be too long of a waiting time. I'd rather not think of halving for now and enjoy the days where we can still accumulate some altcoins. The reason most of us wants the halving is because of the awaited bullrun which probably will happen few more months again after the halving so another months of waiting.
1294  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH price in 2020. on: December 22, 2019, 06:14:56 PM
recovery for SURE imo, the only real question is: when?  will ETH go into "2.0" in 2020? some people say not! Sad
The release of the complete upgrade will be delayed by the blog the ETH team released recently, it is never any easy process to completely change the protocol in a short period and expect everything should be fine.

IF it does, i think that will signal the recovery process, somany are stacking for PoS right now
its only miners dumping as most of them really overextended to get in on this "legal money printer" revolution this last year or two Sad
If you think that many are stacking the coins to have a monopoly on getting the rewards in the future why do you think that the miners would sell off their coins, they can stake the coins and even dominate the reward portion in that process as the user with the highest stacking will have the monopoly in getting the rewards.

While they are stacking, the whales are also thinking of making those who bought 32ETH to dump what they have because the Constantinople is crashing and POS might not be possible. Its unsure whether going to ETH2.0 will finally be over without some problems, there are people who were claiming its not possible to solve the scalability with sharding and all.

When the word about 32ETH came, people outside crypto suddenly are buying ETH. I hope they hold during the dip.
1295  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: MoneroV - SCAM - Fake team on: December 22, 2019, 06:04:32 PM

They just created a new thread today which I checked this project was actually created last year, its only now that you finally checked it. Good job.

I did try to check it if I can invest to it while its cheap knowing that its supply was limited top 27M unlike the XMR. The coin is on two exchange with low volume too which is made me think it isn't worth.

There might just have some deal done with him and Apple sort of a compromise that made a penalty lighter, he after all helped Apple learn the vulnerabilities of their system and probably made sure he didn't copy anything like that of the flapenning.  But why only $75K, he should have ask millions if he just have to commit this crime. $75K is nothing to Apple.
1297  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance Singapore Blocks Withdrawals to Privacy-Focused Bitcoin Wallet on: December 22, 2019, 03:57:28 PM
So, this means Binance can detect coinjoin transactions as they please and block the user without giving proper explanation?

I understand this is for security but can't they at least let them withdraw and then block them for using the services before the issue is sorted? Things like this make smaller and scammy exchanges keep ripping off their users.

Most probably. Multiparties are almost like mixing the coins, receiving party does even know who send the coins and this could be considered by binance as the same thing with that of Catxolotl user. But I agree the coins must be returned back to the user at least or this will be used against everyone who send coins to any exchange who just want to do the exit scam. Centralize exchange wants transparency and they really will have to know where the coins are from. They are big surveillance system.
1298  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Outclasses Other Cryptocurrencies as an Investment Option, Here’s Why on: December 21, 2019, 06:33:23 PM

When it comes to a discussion about bitcoin outclasses other cyrptocurencies, you can't disregard the technology behind it and only focus on it being investment option. The technology aspect has to explained and why they prefer to have bitcoin instead of other crypto because its where BTC dominates the most.
1299  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] ETERBASE: Europe's Premier Digital Asset Exchange on: December 21, 2019, 04:59:49 PM
I've witnessed the start of Eterbase and I think that you're going good in traction.
Of course, you are doing good by listing, but one thing to be clear people are kept complaining to the bounty manager that some of the bounty hunters have not received their bounty reward yet. So how long it will take to distribute the tokens to bounty hunters and already 6 months have been passed away.

That should be the responsibility of the bounty manager, as far as I know, but it is very unfortunate if Eterbase breaks the promise about payment. Sad
I did not participate in this bounty, but I am also concerned
I thought that it was distributed well because I've received my reward months ago.

I am one of the bounty participants and didn't receive my bounty as of now, even whenever I ask in the bounty telegram the bounty manager is not at all responding. Based on their previous payments I have joined in this Etherbase bounty and why they are taking too much time for the distribution?


All were distributed in our eterbase account already.  You must have missed it but I think sapta had done it right by the tally but its the eterbase team that distributes the tokens. They must have missed the ones who only joined in the mid of the campaign, upon checking you only joined on the month of July.



1300  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong granted patent for sending BTC thru email on: December 21, 2019, 02:05:16 PM
if a bitcoin transaction using a username might be a lot cooler too, I might be able to think positively in this way the transaction would seem to be great if some coinabse users often make small amounts of transactions using bitcoin, so it doesn't pile up on the bitcoin transaction network, but I say before this it still didn't look great if it was done only for coinbase users
he has been fighting for this patent since 2015, so it's natural that many use something similar every year. If coinbase wins this patent, it means that all other services can still use it, but by following the fixed rules of coinbase.

I still think this is no different from the branch address system, but I don't know the details. What is clear is this feature will benefit users even though they can no longer avoid KYC etc.

I didn't know he was on it since 2015. If he was the first to have introduced the concept then he deserves the patent. Congrats to Brian Amstrong.

Its just surprising to see how many developers today have created innovations that weren't really patented in the name of opensource. Now that he got it patented then this will just be for Coinbase alone and they can sue which project uses it. I can really think of paypal when making transactions base on our email ID.
