interesting article and i like the application of the "Kelly's formula" if that's what it is called but it seems to me only early adopters are the only parties that can actually apply it. I also would not agree with his price drop expectations as there is a growing demand for bitcoin which can not be compared to 2014...unless he is a whale trying to send a wave of panic to buy himself cheap btc.

Cloudbet is much better now. instant withdrawals. fast grading always a minute after..
I have also used them many times before but after seeing lots of problems they have recently I have stopped using them and I think they also have KYC policy just like sportsbet.io I am placing most of my bets with nitrogensports these days after directbet stopped accepting bets. The cessation of directbet.eu held the betting is very influential on the gamblers,They are confused to choose other options, because so many have any constraints of it, both in terms of withdrawal, deposit, bets, and so forth. I really don't understand why DB is closing and probably prefers casino games. The good thing of DB is they don't require people to create an account although creating an account on a betting site is also good as it will make faster and avoid the charges and blockchain traffic. I really do not understand why the left either because frankly speaking they had a good relationship with the bitcoin community and their services were top notch and they might not have had the best market of games but as a community they still got the traffic, we had a lot of trust in them and now the only race horsing bookie left is 1xbit and soon we shall have more KYC sports bookies and bitcoin will no longer be fun.

At the time I knew bitcoin about two years ago, I thought it was something that can be used for fun. I would earn bitcoin and head to a gambling site. I treated bitcoin as something which can just be used for fun. As we speak, I regret when I remember the amount of bitcoin I lost in the name of gambling. If I was wise enough, I would have saved the bitcoins and right now I would have been a billionaire. Bitcoin is now a force to reckon and you can longer consider it as something for fun.
that is what most of us did when faucets were popular back then...faucet-->gamble [Repeat] it was all about fun then as the community grew with time i guess our needs and prioties grew and was nolonger about fun Atleast i know most people even gamble more carefully now with the raising bitcoin value it would be a good investment option to go with btc.

Hi Dev am a little puzzled here if SunContract sore purpose is to Decentralize the Energy Market and probably remove the middleman somewhere along the way doesnt that just transfer the middlemanship to who ever has the energy buying power or holds SNC contract...i know project has a lot to offer than removing middleman/men.

First logo is nice and well thought of... i like the concept of having the slanting graph Second and third should come in, in their respective order. A little detail would have made the 3rd one a master piece but came short. All the best to the designers.

The longest time I had to wait was about 3 days and that was the same time everybody adopted the 1 confirmation protocol after the blockchain was hit with transaction malleability attacks it's almost been 24 hours for me, sent through armory to betcoin.. says STILL pending. I used the usual fee that armory recommends.
does the type of wallet really matter when it comes to sending out your bitcoins??? I know most people denounce blockchain.info wallet for its low fee suggestions... aslo being the cause of some delayed confirmations

So far it was best way to hold it. The problem is that no one knows what will happen in future, as you know there is no 100% sure investment.
Agreed. You can not be 100% sure about your investment that a profit will come your way but if you do not try don't expect your money to grow magically. It could rise more, it could decrease, something could happen with bitcoin itself, laws could prohibit it, etc..
Everything is a risk. That's why only invest what you can afford to lose. In my opinion, to eliminate those risk, thou must also invest in altcoins so that if bitcoin dumps, you still have an altcoins that can make your recover from the loss you have got from one investment.
And the good part of investing(holding) in bitcoins is they are low risk unlike most assets or services but hoping that altcoins will absorb your bitcoin losses is a gamble

A lot of people are very excited and optimistic right now so $3000 is an easy target, don't forget that the market heavily relies on the emotions of the people. However if there were to be a sell off at some point it would only be a good opportunity for me to buy more since I'm going long on bitcoin.
I have a feeling that $3000 will be reach before this third quarter ends. And if pushed hard even before this semester ends. There is RSK for bitcoin and this should push bitcoin to another milestone, and the hype of Australia removing tax and accepting Bitcoin. The lights on the scaling issue, this is all contribute to bitcoin hype. no need to hype for this , bitcoin already surprise us each year with its innovation and stability , have high hope its reach 5000 soon , probably also be the best things on current technology We need the hype to keep our key players excited and to splash their money into cryptocurrency and i have a good feeling before the end of the year we shall get to see 5000 dollars as word goes round about bitcoin being among the best digital investments of our time...

As far as I can tell... the only 'advantage' Jaxx has is that it is "multicoin" and has "shapeshift" support built in... and some might say that "it looks pretty". However, if you're not interested in alts or converting your coins, and you prefer function over form, then Jaxx effectively has no advantage.
For storing BTC longterm, I'd have to recommend cold storage using an offline Electrum wallet (air gapped computer or USB stick Linux distro with Electrum installed)... or a secure paper wallet.
As OmegaStarScream has pointed out already Electrum has no issues at the moment while jaxx is still a new product as far as i know and the only advantage i find in jaxx is its portable especially with the chrome extension and you also have access to your private keys and can add an extra layer of security using 2fa..

So basically whenever bitcoin goes up, altcoin goes down and vice versa?
Yes technically if bitcoin goes up. Then we can say that many altcoins would goes dump becuase of many trades selling their altcoin and will affect theprice of it. And they will buy bitcoin as soon as it's lower and sell it high. So after bitcoin pump they will their bitcoins in higher and buying many altcoins that have affect in bitcoin pump It is not as simple as the thread title said . Actually the cryptocurrency market is so complicated to understand and hard to predicted. I can say it is feel like random market and even manipulateable , so the topic is wrong for me personally. Yup. It is obvious and most of the newbies know about it. The BTC price has become the base price for all other altcoins and if BTC rate has doubled over time then the altcoin exchange range could not be the same, think like that, So it is quite obvious. thats one fact for sure, Bitcoin price is the base price for all other altcoins, but bitcoin value is not directly proportional to what altcoins are valued for... I say this because in most cases when bitcoin price dips its no guarantee that altcoins will enjoy a rally as response to a dip. Maybe when bitcoin price goes high , its time to buy weaker/cheaper altcoins and not dumping the alts.

There are so many company here in bitcoins industry BTCJams is almost 0.01% all of there so don't worry bitcoins have a future many store's world wide accefted bitcoins as a payment.
precisely, BITCOIN is here to STAY! Big players like btcjam closing gives room to new players who have leant from the mistakes of such founding companies and that will will be no reason for bitcoin to die along...or i see are improved services, with controlled risk and from here on out bitcoin lives on.

Any ideas what could happen to your BTC holdings if your storing them on an offline hard wallet and want to sell them 5-10 years later? Would there be code issues where the BTC you have now will not be recognized or cashable at that that time ?
Of there will be compatibility issues with the old software but as long as the software/hardware developers of the wallet are still in business a simple update should fix that and just in case of a possible hard fork remember to store your private keys as the best option to your stack of coins. Im curious because I bought a hard wallet but have no idea how usable the BTC version i have today will be in the future?
Once in a while you need to check on whats happening in the world of bitcoin just to make sure you investment is safe.

In my opinion the best methodes to earn bitcoins online are the signature campaign, trading, and selling your skills/services or goods online for btc. You can use them or just focus with one if you haven't the time or the needed knowledge about the other ways.
Signature campaigns are a proven source of bitcoins with a minimum skills needed unlike trading which needs skill and a good eye for price movement. you also earn bitcoin in gambling, but if you try the gambling make sure that you are ready for the consequence of this.
Gambling is a high risk game and i honestly think this should be for people who dont mind spending/lossing Also, you can use lending of bitcoin but before you lend your bitcoin make sure for the collateral and be sure that you lend to the trusted people to less the risk you want to take.
Depending on which platform you choose to lend out your btc this should be a slow way to grow your btc and maybe low risk in some instances

If you are good are what you say you want to uncover this should turn out to be a great service
but is this limited to bitcointalk or you are flexible enough to expand your services to getting scammers on other service providers like paxful or localbitcoins etc

BIT.AC is a CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION on 22017-05-05 18:44:58 – they cleaned out both my ETH wallet 0x5527b5e52d8aaaaf4bee4013f8267dbbc12a2dbf and BTC wallet 1Ep5ExFj2tZCwME24hcPFrrvRqoo49FPEy IT HAD TO BE AN INSIDE JOB – because these transactions bypassed BIT.AC's 2FA security CODE system. And even though the wallets were emptied without any notification on May 5,2017 (according to the Blockchain https://etherscan.io/) the BIT.AC WEBSITE told me that at 1am MAY 21, I had COINS (equivalent to 1.44584 BTC) worth $ 2883. On May 27 I tried to transfer coins and suddenly my account was frozen with NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. IT HAD TO BE AN INSIDE JOB. BIT.AC is a CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION GOODBYE COINS If what your are insinuating is true you can open a scum accusation against the named party to warn others using the format below: What happened:: Scammers Profile Link: Reference Link: Amount Scammed: Payment Method: Proof of Payment: PM/Chat Logs: Additional Notes: And in case you need help on how to fill it up check this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260073.0 you just might have a longshot of getting your coins back, good luck mate.

This seems to be really really nice project. But promotion on Facebook is also one of the best ways to promote an object. Also you can use other social platforms for promotion also
Yeah this is very nice project. You have a good point that promotion in different social media makes attract many investor to invest in this project. I hope this SunContract will have a facebook campaign. By performing a facebook campaign you can have many investors. There are now many users of facebook. By promoting this project in the facebook I know it will be a good way to make progress. majority crypto user like this use twitter if compare facebook so efective twitter campaign in promotion Yeah. I read a lot about the twitter campaign. They say there are more crypto user in twitter but there are also crypto user in facebook. That is a good idea if they will create a facebook campaign. both platforms can be used to easily reach the targeted audience and potential investors and i honestly think this project will be an easy success because one way or another we all need energy the only task at hand is getting word out about Suncontract to get the ball rolling
