This topic deserves a pump to warn this community.

Making profit while the market is going down is not waking up the bear, you’re simply just making profit because you’re doing the right thing and seizing every single opportunity you see to grab some profit. But if you’re talking about Waking up the bear then that’s something that happens occasionally, there are times the market will go up and there are times the market will also go down. You just have to know the right time to seize the opportunity and invest, so that as the market is going up you will be making the profit you need.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best USD stablecoin? Tether, USDC? on: July 03, 2019, 12:00:44 PM
If you wanted to store USD on your cold storage for, let’s say one year, which stablecoin would yo trust the most to still be worth 1 USD in a year?
I ask because I simply don’t trust Tether. I think the day could come where it is either regulated out of existence, or it’s lack of USD reserves causes it to crash and burn.

I’m thinking USDC is the best way to go, because it is backed by a real US company (Coinbase) which has had real longevity in crypto. It can be stored on a ledger nano in my ether wallet. I just feel like it’s going to be around in a year, it’s Coinbase.

Any thoughts or advice?
Tether is the most popular stable coin… but the way I am seeing it now they might be going no where, though they still remain at the top as the number one stable coin with the biggest market cap as well. There are lots of criticisms against them… ranging from being part in manipulation and many others. If you don't want to make use of tether, there are many others. There is PAX… Pax has been doing well and I have seen a lot of people say good about it. Haven't seen any bad review about them yet, maybe cause I haven't taken my time to research about them. You can also check out this other one that is called TruseUSD (TUSD).
4  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: KYC procedure in online casinos does more good than bad or the other way around? on: June 21, 2019, 08:39:59 AM
If the main intention is to prevent under-age players from participating in gambling, then I would say that KYC will be having hardly any impact. I have seen kids as young as 12 years using the Tor browser in my city. Don't you think that they will be tempted to use illegal gambling sites (where KYC is not required) in case the legal ones ask for KYC?
Kids like that are the main reason why it has become a thing of necessity for all sites to have KYC regulation. Don’t worry, its just a matter of time and I believe it would become mandatory for all genuine site and every gambler would have no choice than to adapt too this and for those who still find it difficult, they might be left between the option of either obeying or going to play on scam sites while they stand the risk of losing their money.

For those minors, by the time there is 100% compliance of all sites asking for KYC before license, they would have to wait till they are of gambling age or otherwise go to play on scam sites and lose all their money.

As it is now, you are looking at the lapses in some of the previous P2P exchanges and you want to work on those lapses to make your own project fill such gaps. It is not a bad idea, as long as you can come up with something usable and you are able to keep to your promise of a better customer support and something that would aid top traders when it comes to getting their disputes settled. I know a lot of platform, for instance like Remitano that has been doing this well, probably, it is not a bad thing to get to see more in the long run to create competition.
6  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling Versus Traditional Gambling on: October 08, 2018, 12:43:57 PM
I prefer traditional gambling, coming to the casino meeting people and playing there for me is very fun.
Probably the biggest difference is that you can not play traditional gambling in many places. Many countries do not allow casinos to be opened and all you usually have is sports betting in many countries and some do not even have that. So people go back to online gambling.

However even if I was living in las vegas out of all places, I would still sometimes gamble at home because it is just easier to open up your pc and gamble. The good part of online is the ease of gambling whenever you want in any state you want. I can gamble while eating and watching a show as well. Traditional is still more entertaining tho.
7  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: DO YOU BUY WHEN THE PRICE DROPS SHARPLY ? on: October 06, 2018, 11:19:11 AM
Good day, mates.

My strategy is to buy coins when the price drops sharply.

Sometimes I fail, because the price drops more than I expected.

But, to prevent this worse situation, I put 30% of my budget at the time of initial investment.
If the price getting down again, I put 30% more.

With this strategy, I am getting some money so far.

In conclusion, I recommend you guys to buy coins when they drops rapidly.
After sharp drop, there should be sharp rising.  Cool
I can’t stay for long without checking out the what’s happening with the Blockchain and the price of Bitcoin at the moment. I do invest money when price drops sharply, but not all the times, I only do when my mind tells me this is the right time.

When I buy in, the price will slowly get back up to a higher and then start dropping again but slowly this time; this is when I sell out and then wait for it to go down to the main lowest it will be for that year.
8  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin volume is still rising ? on: October 02, 2018, 08:37:00 PM
Volume just moves up and down but if you think its still going up after seeing what happened during December then you are delusional. It was 3-4 times bigger than this even more at times. The bigger volume means the price is going up, its a circle, if the volume goes up the price goes up and if price goes up the volume goes up.

Considering bitcoin is a new tech that people are still getting into and there are still not even close to regular investment methods we can clearly say the volume for daily movement can go as high as 100 billion a day for trading purposes and when that happens I am sure it will reach 100k levels as well.
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What number would ETH and BTC reach for this coming bull? on: October 01, 2018, 10:05:54 AM
While the whole world keeps shitting on their pant crying they are losing money.P/s this post is for those who can handle the heat only ,noobies can keep crying

What value will they reach?i predicted Btc won't be higher than 15000usd ETH may go up to 2-3k
You can you tell about how long can you expect another bull runs will come again? In my speculation it will not even higher than 15k. We are being so close with the next halving time and i can predict another bull run or big bubble will come before the halving time for bitcoin. it may come a few years again.
There is even no coming bull at the moment unless the OP is focusing on the long term, which we know in the next 4 to 5 years, there would have been a lot of huge development as well as demand for the market which would make the possibility of a huge price to kick in.

For this year however, I really would not expect much and if we are able to have some huge movement at all, we might just see around, $10,000 - $15,000 based on the technicalities of where we are at the moment.
10  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: June 02, 2018, 05:46:30 AM
the greatest is an addiction. when it has been defeated and wants victory to be back, then the gambler will keep returning to the table and bet again. it will continue. and the impact is, they will become lazy to work.
There are very few people seen in this world who behave like crazy people because I think it’s better for the person to avoid the thing which is being avoided by majority of the people. definitely, it contains some sort of danger in it that’s why the people before you were not trying and a normal person would also not try because sometimes accepting other people advises is a good thing.
What is funny is that people understand the consequences but they still try it anyway. It is not like they are crazy but they are just simply not ready to face reality that no matter what, luck cannot always play out to their advantage all the time and that affects their judgment and mentality a lot that they simply forget themselves and get engrossed in their gambling activity until they face the huge consequence.

At least if anyone wants to gamble, they should do it with sense. One fact is that it is not everyone who gambles that will always end up getting screwed as you have said, some simply do it for the fun, but those who tend to look for something they can never find in gambling such as making profit or making a lot of money like it is an investment are always the ones who end up facing the crazy fix that gambling puts them at the end of the day as they tend to find it very hard to control themselves.
This is how stupid human beings are or we can say how lazy and sloppy people turn out to be.  All they want is to have money for survival without putting any efforts. Like there is going on some charity show in casinos that they will make all the players rich financially settles people. Anyone who is greedy or fails to control his love for money but do not want to work will end up gambling and most probably, he will be losing what he had before.
Gambling is just like a self-suicidal for anyone who is there in the world of the gambling. It is because of the reason that all those who are busy in gambling are putting all their money and rest everything which they have on stake and that they are losing their money every single time they gamble. In spite losing of this much of the money, they are still unable to get rid of this thing as this is an impossible sort of thing for them to do.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you play online casino? if Yes... on: June 02, 2018, 05:15:27 AM
Online casinos can cause some problems also. They may run away with you money. Or their systems might be fixed so that they keep all the profits. This is quite common with websites offering card related games online.
Business is business and no matter whether it is online or land based, the owner is always trying to get money out of customer’s pocket. If this was not the case then I am afraid people would not have any interest in establishing their own business or these people would have been poor. If a gambler is of the opinion that online gambling is done with honesty then he is fooling himself only. There is nothing like honesty in this world.
this is what business says in business, when the gambling company lets its players get big profits early on, and that will end in defeat. this is what we usually talk about, that should not sit too long in one casino game, the lucky ones in onlie gambling, are those who know when it's time to stop
No business of the world thinks about customers. All they are looking forward to is their money. Gambling is no different and I think, this is pretty much understandable. People do business in order to generate big revenues not for charity.  As far as those gamblers are considered who stop this activity after losing a certain affordable amount, that kind is very rare in reality. Majority chases the loss or stops when it’s too late.
There is nothing in this world like any kind of service which you are getting for free. This concept of online casinos is no doubt very much appealing but the ones who are running such sort of the websites are earning a lot of money as they keep their share in every single earning which any of the gambler make while paying there. You need to go for that online casino which gives you the maximum advantage.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best Time to Sell Altcoins on: June 01, 2018, 06:22:43 AM
Hy guys. Most of the time I use to trade with altcoins and I use to sell altcoins when they are above ICO price and giving some profit. I do not hold atlcoins for long time. What if you have some altcoins, what will be your strategy to use that coins? Is there any specific best time for every altcoin and when it is going well and we should sell ?? 


the time we should sell coins are when the we see any new development and updates about the project. its sometimes involved with the new updates following with the news between one coins and another.
That was cool. As far as the price surges up due to this, it is very sensible to sell out coins during this time. All a trader or investor is interested in is just profits. He cares less about what is going on behind the scenes. Honestly, the right time to sell out coins is before a decrease appears in the value of an asset during the pump phase. This is what is have learnt rather observed so far. Moreover, a person gets too many chances of doing so.
13  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The future of BTC, ETH and LTC? on: June 01, 2018, 05:41:53 AM
Previously, I believed BTC, But last time, that belief is no longer. I'm afraid BTC is down

That's what they feel about the decreasing price of bitcoin, many people would afraid and most of them are newbies like you that didn't know the ability of bitcoin. You should know on what's the bitcoin potential and you need to know that it's price are too volatile.
This is the main reason why most of time we tell every new users to make good information and get knowledge about bitcoin before they go to invest in bitcoin, the reason behind this is that when bitcoin will be at decreasing level so they will not be afraid and will not mistake for selling at panic price, as bitcoin has high potential to overcome all lose within months but patience is key to get that success.
True when you learn to be patient for what may you want in the future you could ever be take on it in the future evwrything will be as good as people wanted for when blockchain gives more.
Everything in this crypto world is going to be fine and amazing. This is not much far from this time. We would be seeing a monarch of this price for bitcoins and other altcoins and the huge interest of people in crypto world. This all is just coming in few years. Break with your dreams and hold on. The best time is just about to come in few years. And the life would be ready to change.
14  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does holding long term can be worthy despite of unpredictable market? on: June 01, 2018, 05:09:50 AM
If you have the build up confidence towards your crypto assets then there's no need to make a nonsense stress towards to some crashes as it is normal in the crypto world, if you believe you are not holding a worthless coins then it is time to buy and accumulate more of it while it is on the cheap state or else you will regret not to profit out of the bear market season.
And somehow this becomes natural that whenever you are putting confidence in your coin, you always smash out those fuds coming to you about your coin. But we need to build that confidence. And that comes with best possible learning about your coin in which you are going to invest in. we all must do this and only then, we can have a better ending result. Believe in your coin.
15  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't hold your coin on exchange for long time. on: May 31, 2018, 06:01:28 AM
I agree with you, if we holding coin on the exchange will be many risks like coin hack, exchange stopped and other problems.
I recommendation use hardware wallet like ledger or trezor because of high security.
But you must keep the 24-word seed to recovery.
Even with the exchanges our funds were secure. For this we need to select the best exchange service, because one with the best reputation will never let their users get scammed or get into any security issues. Holding on exchanges and different trading platforms were good for daily traders.
This is not a problem if you are holding coin on any exchange for a long time because the exchange is yours and you will need to handle that so where the risk or difficulty will occur? The best choice is to trade without any friction and to sell rapidly if you are in profit.

You will must be holding coin for a long time if you bought the coin on high price and then waiting for the price to go higher. So this is a false decision to buy coin in a high market, you need to buy in a low market so as to remove and prevent yourself on holding coin in an exchange for long time.
16  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Suggestion for trading on: May 31, 2018, 05:32:30 AM
suggestions for new players who just got to know trading and have just become a better trader you read some articles that can provide information to you to be able to know the right time to buy and the right time to sell coin.
Always trade with a valuable coin in case of crypto market and do not go in complications but simply follow the market rules according to the current market because market situations change with times. Do trade with an authentic source and never follow others strategies because you have to look into the current market, if you are just following strategies without judging market situations then you may face with difficulties.
17  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Master the trading on: May 31, 2018, 04:56:07 AM
it really can not be said, because the proficiency of a trader will depend on themselves in how they can properly research and can learn from the experience that has been passed.
In order to master and boost up your trading process or business you need to adopt and follow all those strategies which are using as examples in the market which indicate and clear all those trading processes in the past that produced excellent and huge profits. Now follow all those strategies according to the current market conditions and apply the relevant strategy.
18  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you approve this strategy: sell alts buy btc? on: May 30, 2018, 05:29:27 AM
I read this article, but I want to see opinions, would you sell all your alts to have only bitcoin now ? I don't think this is recommended

https://cointelegraph.com/news/buy-bitcoin-sell-your-altcoins-says-pioneering-wall-street-blockchain-analyst
I think it’s right. Bigger profits comes from investing only on Bitcoin than investing on several altcoins at a time, and that’s based on my own experience. The price of Bitcoin fluctuates heavily than every other cryptocurrencies in the market and let’s assume that you invested $60,000 right now, you will make bigger profit from it than when you invested the $60,000 in altcoins. But I’m not saying that this happens all the time, but it is most likely to happen.
19  Economy / Economics / Re: Choosing the one | What I think! - Real Job or Full Time Crypto! on: May 30, 2018, 05:02:06 AM
It depends if your full time in crypto gives you ten times salary than your real work then you can choose crypto. The only thing  that we are sure about crypto is if it will still continue its existence in the future. There so many benefits of a real job in the long run.
That depends on your location. There are countries where $500 is worth hundreds of thousands, but if you give that $500 to someone living in the U.S it won’t be sufficient for them. So I will prefer to quit cryptocurrencies completely and work in companies like Microsoft, Apple and Google where I will be getting paid hundred thousands of dollars as a programmer. So it all depends on. Your location.
20  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When do you know its time to Stop? on: May 26, 2018, 05:36:12 AM
I should stop when my money runs out. but I just want the victory to come to seize the defeat yesterday. quite difficult to stop. the only thing that is most effective is to get away from a gambling environment, and focus on work.
Every gambler says this that he would end up with gambling when he has no more money to play gambling but when it really happens, they start taking loans from people and banks as well in order to continue with gambling and they start making fun of their lives as well as the people related to them. Recovering back the money lost in gambling is just like passing a camel from needle’s hole.
