The links you have posted cannot be found. All 3 of them is not visible. Well anyway you do not need to worry about the news. If you keep on reading news which are talking how bitcoin will crash or the extreme bearish predictions then you will end up worrying. But I suggest that you should not just stick to that kind of news you should also try to read bullish articles so that you will not lose hope on btc.

Good afternoon. I would like to hear your opinion. I've been reading the forum sufficiently long, but I rarely write. I had one question. Why is the forum divided into 2 teams that angry with one another? The first support bitcoin and hate all altcoins. All of this for them is only garbage. Others like altcoins and do not understand what the problem have first. I have a question for the first camp. Why? Take for example Zilliqa, Tomocoin, NEO, DragonChain, etc. People who bought them in large quantities became richer. Why do you think this is garbage? Bitcoin is a legend, but some altcoins are worth paying attention to, aren't they?
First and foremost let us discuss how many alternative coins are out there in the market. You are lucky if you have jumped into a coin who luckily increases its value but what if its value decreases or there is no growth at all. Another thing is that you want to buy a certain coin in its cheapest value available and that is during the ICO, but there are many scam ICO's anywhere and a large percentage of ICO does not end up successfully and ends up in a failure. There are also coins that after their market crashed they did not go up anymore and become stagnant. With these reasons it is much better to invest on bitcoin rather than on altcoins. If bitcoin crashes all other altcoins crashes but if bitcoin increases in value not all altcoins increases in value. This is one of the reason why people prefer bitcoin over altcoins.

a days before i was giving 0.30 - 0.60$ for Transaction fee on Blockchain today i woke up and i found it 2$ and when i send big amount it goes up to 10$ on regular not even priority. Does anyone have an explanation for this ? Check these picture to understand what i'm talking : https://imgur.com/a/6sjgg3qThis is one of the problems we are facing on bitcoin. Transaction fees when sending to an external wallet is huge and it is really troublesome. But these problems are soon gonna be out of the picture when the lightning network is already implemented. Lightning network guarantees faster transaction fees with a very low transaction fee.

First thing I want to advise to you is that you should do some research about cryptocurrency and bitcoin on google and watch some videos about it on you tube. In the beginning everything seems complicated but as long as you spend your time researching and involving yourself with this topics then you will start to comprehend it. Try first learning the basics such as the history, how to make wallets, how to make transactions and how the market works. Then later on try also reading more advance materials.

From my own experiences, you should divide your capitals into 3 parts, one for long-term investment into a crypto that has a “clear and bright” future; another for surfing; and the last one as backup money for an unexpected situation.
What the author mentioned in this statement is the same with my strategy in trading or investment. But instead of dividing my capital in 3 parts I am dividing my capital into 4 to 6 parts. In my experience this kind of strategy is really effective and is useful during the price drop of bitcoins since if the value continuously goes down you will still have the resources to buy more in the most cheapest value in the market.

Hello everyone! Trying to do a little list of the bitcoin fork that between all are worth claiming. Hope you find this 3d useful. I was having a look to this list of all Bitcoin forks .... man if they are a lot -- What do you really need to know? --Well, first of all, many of them are pointless:D Anyway, if at the moment of the fork (the relative block) you own the private key of an address containing BTC, you can use it to claim the new forked coins. What you need to do:- Verify you own the private key of the BTC address (wallet address, not an exchange!) - (Wait for the fork) *(all mentioned forks below already happened)- Move your BTC to a new address - Import the private key (now BTC empty) on a wallet that support the new forked coin to claim it. - CLAIM -This detailed HostFat's guide on Bitcoin Cash claim can be used as main reference for all forks, mainly because the suggested method/wallet ( Coinomi) as for today supports all the main fork i think are worth claiming In fact, the only forks that today are worth it claiming are:- BCH - Bitcoin Cash http://bitcoincash.orgForked at Block 478559, 1 August 2017, 1BTC:1BCH ( BCH link coinmarketcap) Complete guide on how to claim BCH by HostFat: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2062488.0- BTG - Bitcoin Gold https://bitcoingold.org/Forked at Block 491407, 24 October 2017, 1BTC:1BTG ( BTG link coinmarketcap) Also BTG can be claimed on Coinomi, or alternatively you can use Exodus as reported on official btg site. Who owns Ledger Nano S can follow instruction on this page- BCD - Bitcoin Diamond http://btcd.ioForked at Block 495866, 24 November 2017, 1BTC:10BCD ( BCD link coinmarketcap) (the fork on which i found less info). Not supported on Coinomi; looking at wallets suggested on their site, the preferable seems to be Bitpie On this page you can find how to add an asset on Bitpie and on this other page how to import your private key to claim forks. - BTCP - Bitcoin Private https://btcprivate.org Forked at Block 511346, 10 March 2018, 1BTC:1BTCP (+ Block 272991 Fork ZCL) ( BTCP link coinmarketcap) Bitcoin Private is also supported on Coinomi. Alternatively you can use Electrum wallet or the Full-Node desktop walletSpecial mention - BTX - Bitcore https://bitcore.cc/Not literally a fork; they developed their own blockchain starting from BTC snapshot at block #492820, 2 November 2017 ( BTX link coinmarketcap) Also Bitcore is today supported on Coinomi. All details on BTX can be found on their ANN 3d https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1883902.0Probably for most people this is a foregone selection, but still, everyone agrees these are the only btc fork worth spending some effort for claiming? Anybody claimed others? Any particular experience to share? (mainly about BCD, found really few info on that) I am not really worried as to the fork and I dont mind what forked coins will be successful or not. The one thing I am sure of is that I am keeping my btc in yobit so that when a fork occured I will surely receive the forked coins equal to the amount of btc that I have in my account. Thus in all exchanges I prefer yobit since everytime there is a fork, there is free money.

I have the same opinion with those who have commented before me. The possibility of having the same wallet address is 1 is to 1 million thus it is very rare to panic about something which happen very rarely. But if you are really worried then you create your wallet online so you will not to think about those kind of unnecessary problems. Just remember that if you cannot solve your problems just select other options.

I do believe that Morgan Stanley's research is very helpful. It provides us with good statistical data and analysis that allows us to visualize how the cryptocurrency exchanges by placing the rank of an exchange versus the trading volume that it makes. Moreover, I also agree that a more lenient and attractive regulations are what the cryptocurrency market needs. Super strict regulations is not healthy to exchanges and it may cause a shutdown but a well defined regulations will not only strengthen the market but also increases the number of users and businesses accepting it.

As we all know that bitcoin is the king of the crypto universe because it is the first and original cypto currency, and it is undeniably responsible for the invention of blockchain technology, because of the discovery of blockchain technology which is the main reason of the growth of the alternative coins, altcoins are generally defined as “bitcoin alternative."
Bitcoin is more suitable for the title “The origin of crypto” rather than “King” of crypto because not all alts are going to bow down to bitcoin. Ethereum is one of the example and the centralized coins in the market. Although all alts are the alternative of bitcoin but it doesnt mean that all alts are going to be attached on bitcoin. Anyway i dont understand what is your point on this topic. Bitcoin is really the king of cryptocurrency world and even Ethereum bows down to bitcoin. If you noticed that during the price crash of bitcoin the ethereum market also crash down. This is not only happening to Ethereum but to all alternative coins in the crypto market. This is inevitable and the truth about bitcoin. Though in the future we will not know if there will be cryptocurrency that will overcome bitcoin.

I can't escape to notice that many users here on forum have terrible rebbelious fear of governments. Like government is some evil devil that will destroy Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. But is this realy so, do such claims have any reasonable ground at all?
To my opinion the cause for something like that is again ignorance. I think that regulation that is mentioned in many countries is often mixed with centralization which is something that is not natural to Bitcoin because it's functioning totaly different than fiat currencies. Also some warnings to people that Bitcoin is volatile and risky investment that come from national banks are often interpretated as hostile behaviour towards Bitcoin and attempts to make people not to use it.
Is there any hope that Bitcoin users and governments will find the common language and help Bitcoin together to be more accepted in economy, especialy by businesses and to become more "legal" everywhere?
Possibly those people have huge amount of bitcoins and they are afraid that they will be questioned by the Anti-Money Laundering Agency. Or another reason could be is that they are just afraid of the huge taxes that will be placed by the government. And lastly there could be a misunderstanding about the role of the government that is why they are thinking too much.

if I analyze the character of bitcoin, I can conclude that bitcoin has the potential to be a non-discriminating currency.
everyone can use bitcoin without knowing the boundaries of limit, group, skin, religion, region, and even economic conditions.
and this is against with the current financial system today. a service of a domestic or foreign financial institution must be using KYC rules, the financial institution must obey with KYC rules to reduce the risk of money laundering, or suspicious activity.
and bitcoin does not limit the transaction system, and bitcoins use a key pair called the public key and private key. and therefore many people judge that bitcoin will be the place of criminal transactions. this is the wrong statement. even though this problem can be solved. because the transaction data bitcoin stored safe and difficult to manipulate.
I also think the same with the fact that anyone can join in this market and does not even look at your asset or resources. All are free to join. Also even in bitcoin exchanges you can even trade using a small amount of dollars unlike stock exchanges that have a minimum of 100$. Bitcoin does not discriminate the poor from the rich and everyone is welcome unlike banks that discriminates people who wears rugged clothings.

In this VERY special episode, we interview Marco Robinson who’s the Creator of the World’s 1st asset-backed cryptocurrency, NAKED. You may have seen Marco on your TV screen as the STAR & CREATOR of Channel 4’s hit TV show “Get a house for FREE”. Marco is also a best selling author and creator of BIGluv, the world’s FIRST charity using Blockchain Technology. Listen to the podcast episode here: https://www.cryptopulse.co.uk/episode-20/or subscribe to us on iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/id1333545783This is a good move and I think a charity using crytpcurrency as a mode of donation could hit big. It would have a fast collection since it can even collect donation all over the world without even passing the banks. I just hope that those donated cryptocurrencies will not crash its value so that the donation will not go to waste.

Coindesk is a popular news site, that just recently posted an article on Omisego and had a scam airdrop link. Lots of people are upset over this as they should be, including Vitalik and Omisego who are boycotting this year coindesk consensus meeting. Another issue is that in response to this, Peter Rizzo who is the Editor in Cheif has been quite unprofessional about this.
What are your thoughts?
That is just a proper move for Vitalik and Omisego afterall there are several fake news that are posted in the coindesk website. I was also surprised that they even another huge fake news against omisego. Vitalik had posted all of those evidence he have on twitter and thus he said that he will boycott such coindesk conference.

How I heard about bitcoin started early 2015 when I was searching for means in which I will use to earn some money to help support my schooling because I'm an undergraduate. So I was introdue into an online business by a friend called MMM (As of then I never knew it was ponzi) the way it was presented (mouth watery bonuses) made me to engage in it fully and started marketing it. I became successful at it made some cool cash too.
When it became famous in my country I decided to explore all its benefits then I saw an advert of BItcoin I picked interest because it was offering 50% ROI monthly while my local currency was 30%ROI. So then.my journey began in the Cryptocurrency world. I became fully a Cryptopreneur January 2016 after my wanna be cryptocoin called TBC (thebillioncoin) failed me. I have made some few mistakes afterwards but I can proudly say, me picking interest in Bitcoin (cryptocurrency) from a Ponzi biz, is one of the most smartest move I have ever made in my life.
How did you hear about bitcoin? I Wanna hear your experience
I have heard about bitcoin since 2009. I also remembered MMM and luckily I did not lose any amount of btc that time since after a month I withdraw my btc and convert it to cash. Some of my profit in MMM was invested in perfecthash.com but eventually that site was a scam. So after I was scammed I started collecting faucets and then I keep on researching on how to increase my earned btc. I eventually ended doing up some affiliate marketing to newly created investment and gambling sites. Then I was hired by a certain website due to my effort and then I found out about signature campaigns. Then later on I was doing some trading and even become and ICO consultant and a social media promoters for newly developed coins.

That was one of the funniest thing that Andreas Antonopolos have said. Thanks for posting it here and let us remember those things and informed those who have not heard that yet. Andreas has made a big point when he said that those who are laughing at bitcoin today will be forced to join bitcoin at a later time and will have regrets themselves while we are happy and living in riches.

If this flow of bitcoin market will continue up to December then people will never again think that bitcoin is really a bubble. It is much safer to invest now knowing that the market is stable. Though there are signs in the chart that bitcoin could go back down to 7700$ but this will be just temporary and its a good move. I just hope that there will be no instant bullish moves on bitcoin that will cause again another overvalued bitcoin that will end up in a crash.

I have seen all the bitcoin hold for many profits in the future. What do you do for this and say?
Bitcoin has proven itself for how many years already since 2009. Many have become instant millionaires and many stories talks about rugs to riches. Many are also dreaming for that to happen thus they are holding their bitcoin and wait for the near future for bitcoin to not just hit the moon but to hit Pluto instead. If in case bitcoin could hit a million dollar per coin then many will become a millionaire and billionaire once again.

I have been compiling a guide (for everyone and my team) on how to protect yourself from online scammers here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3415026.msg35714276#msg35714276And I am yet to find an definitive answer to how to protect yourself from DNS Hijacking. From my understanding, this type of hijack can happen either on your own machine (simple, if your machine is compromised), or from the website level (more sophisticated attack). Any ideas / tools / methods you use to detect / prevent such attacks? I have already read your tagged post on this forum before and I agree with you pertaining the Trojans that attacked one's pc, infiltrate and hacked important datas stored in the PC. There was a very famous trojan mining software that enters your computer and mines cryptocurrency without you knowing, aside from that they are accessing your important information on your pc. The best way to protect yourself from that Trojan is to install Bit Defender on your computer. It is effective against Trojan.

Revisiting the taxation code for using cryptocurrency is really a big leap for France. The impact on cryptocurrency holders is very positive and this may bring forth an increase numbers of people to use cryptocurrency and bitcoin. If we look into their new code on taxation on cryptocurrency we can say that it is just, fair and proper. Thanks to the researchers who made the French Government to revisit and place proper taxes to bitcoin. I salute you guys!!!

I involved myself in cryptocurrency especially bitcoin because I wanted to earn more to feed my family and to provide them with their necessity. I was drowning in debt before and btc did not disappoint me but rather it changed my life around. I have paid my debts and I have financial freedom compared to before. Because of this experience bitcoin has become a part of my daily living.
