141  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: CMC and coingecko on: November 12, 2019, 01:40:27 PM
Both are useful tools but CMC is more popular than Coingecko! Coingecko has something unique features like Exchange trust score, ICO review and many more but CMC only has token price chart, trading view and exchange rankings which also have in Coingecko! But CMC has some strong rules to get listed there where any coin/token project easily can get listed in Coingecko, that's why it has more coins listed than CMC! To me, this lot of token listing is a drawback in Coingecko!
This is true, Coingecko provides you more information about cryptocurrencies and also on Coingecko you will find also more coins, that are not listed on Coinmarketcap.
But, I am used to use Coinmarketcap website, like most people here and that is why I use Coinmarketcap more often (everyday)  Cheesy.
I have used both sites for checking the daily turnover and volumes for the major altcoin pairs but the CMC information is more reliable. The requirements for listing the token in CMC are not simple and the $100k daily volume altcoins can apply for listing in this site. The Coingecko has more choices and the simple, smooth user interface attracts the traders too.

I don't think it's 100% accurate because we are witnessing fluctuations in the vue of bitcoin and altcoins will only improve when Bitcoin's price increases without any dump, But as you mentioned if we want to go for long term investment then this is the right time to buy altcoins when it's low.
I also think it's inaccurate in the first point its true we need altcoin that can be used and produced in real terms ,still about altcoin prices it all depends the interest in value of bitcoin ,future no one knows whether to up the altcoin season or there will be a dump first before alt season
The correlation among the altcoins is lower than correlation between BTC and altcoins, the higher BTC price can happen with two ways: Fresh cash flow to the crypto market and selling the altcoins for buying the BTC. The altcoin season depends on the few seasonal factors and market conditions should improve the chance for this possibility.  Long term holders don't care about the seasonal market fluctuations.
143  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Saving for a House! on: November 11, 2019, 02:02:16 PM
We are saving for a house down payment of 40K.  I don't want to leave it in the bank as there is a old judgement they can take any time so i want to store it in crypto as we grow it over the next 6 months.  Is a stable coin the best option?  Thoughts?
For the long term investing, buying the top altcoins and BTC can bring a good profit after a few years. Compound interest can be used for increasing the stack of holding cryptocurrencies, you need to make good research for choosing the potentially better projects. You can join the IEOs after taking your profits from the profitable altcoin trades or buy the promising altcoins for strong crypto portfolio, as you can see there are alternative choices depending on your experience, risk management.
144  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Traders who never bother to learn how to trade on: November 11, 2019, 01:03:30 PM
I think most of the new traders are just attracted because of the possible profits and not with the passion on trading. They think its a good vehicle to get rich quick even with when they have zero knowledge about basic trading. Some think its easy because of the “buy low, sell high” sounds easy but its not, theres more than that phrase.

There are articles our there that says 96% of traders lose their money due to bad trade. That means out of 10, theres only 1 who are successful. I wonder how the study are made since not everyone are open to discuss their trade, most will just keep it by them selves.
And that is another problem, one basic advice that most of us have received at one time is to do what we love and the reason behind it is obvious you will have a tendency to be better at what you love simply because you will dedicate more time and effort to it since it is not only a way to make money to you but your passion, but if you do not like an activity then you will not do the same and you will never be as good.

In this market it is easy to see many traders that only care about making profits but they are not interested in the process of generating those profits, like studying different trading methods, reading books and testing their strategies, and without that you cannot be successful.
For them, buy sell and hold is already enough to make profit. That is why not much new traders who can actually analyze market and then trading with their skill. Even to pick a coin to buy, they rely on luck. And for now a lot of people really confident with that way of trading, and then blame bitcoin when they lose.
They only care about profit and altcoins are tools for them to make money in this market so those traders often lose a lot of investment. In my opinion, it takes a lot of factors to become a good trader in this market and must always analyze this market daily to make many new investment decisions. They may not succeed in doing this but in the long run they will gain more experience when investing.

I am often very important in this matter, and every altcoin has its own value that you need to research carefully because things are not always easy and there will be times that make you have a lot of difficulties.
Blaming the market conditions is a common symptom of Trader's fallacy and the more their account profitability curve tends to go down they lose the weapon for controlling their emotions. In bad situations, they jump from the last altcoin trading position to another and this is kind of behavior similar to the revenge trading. Understanding the value of crypto-asset they hodl is not enough in the bear market, they simply cant handle the consequences of losing trade series.
145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WILL Bounty campaigns Ever Keep to their Rules and Regulations on: November 08, 2019, 11:59:50 AM
The contradictions happen a lot in the bounty campaigns, the unanswerable questions still exist in the bounty activities. Getting paid is the last step for the bounty hunters, the shady tricks by the team are ordered to the bounty managers. Delaying bounty distribution, lowered bounty allocation, banned participants for illogical reasons and more problems are usually solved according to with discretion of the bounty managers which is not fair in most cases.
146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good projects/hard to reach softcap on: November 07, 2019, 09:14:46 PM
I think they often ask for too much money and get greedy. Especially when they go into the millions. You simply do not need that much and they being greedy. No wonder the cap is hard to reach. Good projects do struggle but that is because idiots support crap and lose their money and never come back again.
It is not only about greediness, but the market conditions also force the team for collecting as much as possible investment amount. The simple rule is to be able to pay the development funds for the next planned period otherwise the delayed roadmap is inevitable. Soft cap reached projects usually slowly climbs to higher points if they can survive under bear market conditions. Struggles are the salt of the receipt and each project crosses these choices.
147  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scam Projects and Bounty . Way forward?? on: October 22, 2019, 11:54:58 AM
The scammers have a lot of knowledge in the bounty section compared to the scammers on the Telegram channels. Bounty payments are not paid according to the agreed bounty allocation but the bounty managers don't want to comply with the rules they put on the first lines of bounty thread. Without taking the chance of being participants in the bounty campaign, earning passive income looks impossible.
148  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When Litecoin dips really low in price, I am buying a LOT! on: October 21, 2019, 12:20:14 PM
I am not sure the price of LTC is currently affordable for buying a lot, the situation can change to even worse if the market participants don't want to wait for the pullback on the crypto charts. The difference between the previous and recent years can speak for itself and considering the changes in the altcoin market buying the worthful coins looks a better investment to me.
149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: stick to the same option or switch to another option? on: October 19, 2019, 04:14:07 PM
There are no 2 options for the crypto investors, the choice is up to the investor depending on the personal experience and the trading skills. The quick-rich altcoins don't exist anymore in the bear market, the limitation of the getting rich suggests to avoid the scam-Ponzi projects at all costs. To be a conservative investor, having proper time management skills for the timing correct market trends and the advanced level of money management are essential.
150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Useless altcoins must remove from the whole crypto market on: October 19, 2019, 02:53:48 PM
Clearing the market with natural selection is the best possible option IMO. Using liberal choices will not give the expected results due to the unpredictable market conditions. For importing the market demand-supply and clearing the scam projects with agreeing small(scam) exchanges can save the crypto industry but I doubt it will give the same effect in the short term. for the long term, we need regulation and the audit companies from the professionals.
151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sell your altcoins and tokens TODAY, save yourself the frustration on: October 18, 2019, 11:51:48 PM
the same thought keep coming to my head. sell off, sell off. honestly, this is the greatest advice on this platform. guys altcoins are hopeless are the mean time. maybe we might have another round of bull market just like the 2018 bull run. for now. make your money and convert it to btc. that is the only way out of this misery.
The truth have the similar exit nodes in the crypto industry, for making money buy-sell activity doesn't need to be high. The daily volume of the small market cap altcoins doesn't exceed 30% of the daily volume of the crypto trading AFAIK. Converting the profit to the top altcoin can reduce the risks but the risk tolerance depends on the deep factors planned by the investor himself.
152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Camouflage bounty manager? on: October 18, 2019, 10:08:41 PM
Not all bounty managers are scam practitioners, we have very good bounty managers on this forum that takes bounty job very seriously and they stand by their words as well, i think once you fall victim to a bad project its your call to learn from your mistake to advance
The existing problems in the bounty management make the arguments more constructive and stronger. The developers should not be able to change the term and conditions of the bounty campaign after the end of the ICO/IEO. Ending the agreement with the bounty participants can take the small piece from the reputation but the team doesn't care about the deceived bounty hunters and the reputation during the listing on the exchanges.
153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ???? AFRAID OF NEW PROJECTS !!! ? on: October 18, 2019, 09:41:49 PM
Why do you think that everyone is afraid that some of the new projects
some people without doing any research,    They despise a project, which makes other people agree.
is this lack of literacy in the study makes them fail ?
Does this lack of information bring down a project, that MAY have a bright future ?
Because peoples don't want to take big risk. So more then 90% ICO/IEO projects will turned to scam. Better invest in Bitcoin or Ethereum because of low risks.
Thinking about the recent market conditions, the situation changes constantly and following the every new trend is not appropriate for everyone. Ticking time is the major concern of the crypto investors and taking the decisions based on past experience can lead to a huge loss or less profit from my experience. The bad things happen everywhere and every investor must understand the concept for considering the fundraising goals.
154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Many ICO / altcoin scams? on: October 16, 2019, 09:04:07 PM
I was so frustrated with the current ICO and IEO projects, even the IEOs that were successful and listed on exchanges became scammer. It's best to never be greedy for profit and never try to join IEO
I don't think the IEO scam accusations are more than ICO's scam accusations, the difference suggests to join the IEO. Black chains covered the ICOs, so as a majority of the crypto investors I prefer to believe in the IEOs. The scammers can take out the hands even after the token is get listed. Breaking the exchange rules and delisting from the exchanges are the nearest steps to call the project scam.
155  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you lend in cryptocurrency? on: October 16, 2019, 08:35:21 PM
Sometimes I still lend money to my friends with cryptocurrency, the electronic currency I use to lend is Ethreum. I chose Ethereum simply because it's fast and in my country it's very easy to sell into cash.
It is easier to lend your money to someone specially if you knew who it was since you can guarantee that they will pay you in no time.

To me lending crypto is easy of course if know who will going to lend it. This is some kind of low-key business to me or partially making money while earning and accumulating bitcoin primarily.

It's still not bad though since I've got a limited customer only. Grin
The disadvantages of the fluctuating value of the cryptocurrency affect the profitability of crypto lending businesses. The passive income can ruin the business of the lender if the borrowers don't pay in the time. Knowing the consequences and having calculated risks will ensure the profits in case of having a trustworthy business partner. It is not bad to lend in altcoins but the collateral rate should be over the 120% AFAIK.
156  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Huge rewards, less value or Less reward, big value on: October 16, 2019, 01:43:25 PM
It is not all about the rewards they offer but the success of the project  itself, since the bear market started after 2017 bull run its a bit hard to find good campaigns as most of them have no concrete plans on how to survive during the market down trend that will led for their token to fall its price.
if a project has no way to survive when the market goes down I think they have failed in developing their project, and it needs to be recognized that many projects fail when the market goes down that makes the project die. the concept of a project must indeed be perfect in any condition or they will die.
I don't think you will be able to prove this in any kind of market condition. The fact is simple and the smooth market conditions give an opportunity for the useless projects to use unforeseen circumstances and use it for the development but the teams care about doubling or tripling the initial starting investment amount in a short time. That is the reason the strong projects tend to stay away from when the investors ask about the big exchanges, the working appliance of the "roadmap machine".
157  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: My list of 5 Sleeping Giants of 2020 :) on: October 16, 2019, 01:12:50 PM
From the mentioned coins, I strongly believe in the future potential of BNB, ADA. There is no need to find the altcoins from the top 50 coinmarketcap list, the potentially good altcoin are the coins which are not found by the majority of the crypto traders. Therefore, the daily volume and marketcap of the mentioned type coins have a low interest by the crypto investors. I prefer to make a portfolio by dividing my holdings between the top and low volume altcoins.
158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I talk about market problems? on: October 14, 2019, 10:05:32 PM
I just want to know, about market issues.
1. Reasons that make you survive or still believe in this market?
2. Is this what is called a market cycle, I mean back to the time before bitcoin reached the highest price in 2017? or maybe like 2014, 2015 or 2016? because I'm not there yet.
3. Why has the recent rise in bitcoin prices not affected the market situation for the better or had an impact on the rise in altcoin prices?
4. In your opinion how to overcome the market situation so that it can be stable again?
1) The reasons are obvious: HODL which defines why investors don't look back when they add the new altcoins to the crypto portfolio.
2) Market cycles repeat, learn to trade the chart patterns before they get formed. The ATH prices are not the next target of real crypto HODL-ers they look for $100k before 2021.
3) The dominance of BTC may affect the total market behavior and the altcoins have trading pairs in the BTC or ETH.
4) No idea, everything builds upon the skill and market experience of the investor.
159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why we buy new token or coin? on: October 14, 2019, 08:26:26 PM
What is the most reason to buy new token or new coin, to trade it in the market or to spend it if there something to spend it?
I am talking here that token or coin already listing in exchanges.
And not tokens exchanges such as BNB.
What you think?
What I witnessed the majority of the volume is fake by the trading bots, never fall to the illusion that all volume indicators show the interest domination by the day traders. The day traders buy X token and they wait for the correct exit price which can be observed with different trading tools. After closing the last trading deal jumping to the next altcoin will increase the profitability. I call this one of the reasons in the daily reality that traders observe on the different crypto exchanges.
160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Libra partner drop out on: October 14, 2019, 06:31:30 PM
Visa, mastercard, ebay, paypal, drop out from libra..
will libra still continue ...? why one by one partner liba drop out.? https://twitter.com/coindesk/status/1182747730248118280?s=21
As a huge social media company, the road can not be completely closed for the Libra project. The consequences of the dropped partnerships will show a bad effect but I doubt the developers will not continue to do what they are planning to do for the future of the Libra as a stable cryptocurrency. The payment processing merchants also will not think about to make a new partnership with Libra in my opinion.
