When it comes to percentage increase, the road to $50,000 may be possible because just like last year, the price did increase more than 10x from its lowest value during the year but when it comes to its actual value, it would be less likely to reach $50,000 because many people are disappointed with how the prices turn out. Many investors pull out of the cryptocurrency market and we can see its effect in the ICOs that are barely able to reach softcap and many just cancelled their projects because they cannot get enough investors.


It is still early to say that there are no good news this year given that we are still in the ninth month. Nevertheless, if we believe that our coins would be valuable one day then we should keep holding it and while there is a chance, we should trade small amounts so that even if we have small profits, it will be accumulated and who knows, maybe we would be able to get back the value that we lost and then keep going.

Businesses cannot just easily shift to cryptocurrency because there are so many things to consider that would be vital to the flow of the business. Money is the blood of the business that's why it should flow continuously. Unfortunately, not everyone accepts cryptocurrency yet and only a small percentage of them accept it so fiat is still needed.

For me perhaps, I still need to convert my cryptocurrency to fiat when I need to buy something especially if it is a store that do not even accept credit card transactions. Technology in the current world cannot do all transactions online because some places doesn't even have enough electricity so it would be less likely for them to use a digital currency that they don't know anything of.

Those who are not struggling about money would say this things because they can afford what they wanted. When they don't have enough money yet, I am sure at some point their goal is to have enough money to have a comfortable life and when the time comes that they are financially free, they need to find a new goal because after all, what we yearn in this world is happiness and satisfaction and if you don't have a goal in your life then your soul will be weaken.


Money is just one way of achieving your goals in life to become happy. If you can see around us, there are people who are so rich but not happy and those who just have enough but their hearts are filled with joy. It is also about the mindset of the people being satisfied with what they have.

When it comes to trading, you should always stick to your plan and be consistent with it so that you will know if it is effective or not. It will also make you control your emotion since you know what to do in whatever circumstance it may be. As for OP's strategy of aiming for 1% a day, it is not that hard given the volatility of prices. The issue here is whether you can maintain to have this profits because you may gain 1% but on that day, you can also lose a lot. Well, as long ass you have a cut loss strategy as well then it would be good.

Experience is also a must when you decide to do day trading because it is not for those who are faint-hearted who would immediately back down when they see a big red candle. It requires courage knowing that anytime the trade may not go in your favor.

Basically, etherdelta and forkdelta is just the same. I agree that these two exchanges sometimes took a long time to conduct transactions than IDEX but the advantage is that it has lower fee and most if not all ERC-20 tokens are listed there as long as the team allowed their transactions in there unlike in IDEX that needs to be listed there first before you can exchange your coins.

If I will choose between the three, I would choose IDEX because I like their interface and they have a good chart base on trading view if you want to do some technical analysis. They also have a warning prompt every time you do transactions which is an advantage over those two that would immediately conduct transactions after you click buy/sell.

When the price is at the point wherein I bought it, I would not immediately sell it but I would set a percentage loss and when that price is reach I would just sell it and wait for the time when the price is looking good for buying when the volume is building up and it seems like price is consolidating. Many manipulators sometimes sell off their coins so that stop losses will be triggered and they can buy more coins.


Those who are used to FUD would take this opportunity to buy coins at a low price while those who are new to the market would panic sell. They would eventually learn their lesson the next time there is a FUD and time will come when traders would mature and FUD would not be that effective anymore. The ones selling then are those who wanted to buy lower that's why they are selling even if they are at a loss.

Dedication is what we needed and it should start from the people here in the forum. We are already a community and we should help each other in making a cryptocurrency industry progress. When we knew of something that may be of help to someone, we should not hesitate to share it because who knows, if you share something then others would share something to that will help you in your decision making may it be in purchasing something or investing.


Bitcointalk is a great place to start learning cryptocurrency because one can easily navigate the forum since it is separated by boards. When you are here in the forum, you are not only learning but also earning as well which most of the people are looking for in here. We should not spread FUD but we should check in depth the issues first before we share it to others.

So far, I have good experience with Kucoin as well thankfully. All my transactions went through smoothly and I rarely see any complaints related to the exchange. Aside from Binance, they are the exchange that I want to trade with. I will also add Bittrex because my transactions are going smoothly with them even if there are so many complaints with them. There are coins that can only be traded in their exchange so I have no problems with them.

Regarding the issue of their office, it was already addressed that they are in Singapore and as long as many trust the exchange, I will continue to trade with them. I don't keep a large amount in any exchange though because there are always risk involved when the coin is not in your wallet.

There are hundreds of indicators out there and you can apply it all to your charts but would still be wrong about the movement of the coin. The thing that you should focus on is the strategy that you are comfortable with. Consistency is the key and sticking to your own strategy would be the way to be profitable as long as you stick to it.



Babypips is the best website that I can recommend to start with because it is a comprehensive website and step by step process so those who are new to trading would not be having a hard time understanding it.

This is a good marketing strategy to make the people be aware of bitcoin and I hope this would inspire other businesses too to have other kinds of strategy for the people to know that bitcoin does exist even though it is in the form of chocolate. A food would be a good pick because it can attract all ages. The price may be a little confusing but still whatever makes the people be aware of it then it is good.


At least even if kids do not understand it yet, it is already instilled in their minds that bitcoin does exist and sooner or later, they would be able to remember it and check what it is. This is a really good strategy getting the attention of all people in all ages.

I hold now because I can't just sell it at this level anymore so I am just hoping for a bounce. I do trade small amount so that at least my losses would be lessened. Even if overall it's a bear market, there are still bounces that we can take advantage of and I am minimizing my risk by always having a buy and sell price may it be take profit or cut loss.


I am holding a lot of coins too that I think would not be able to recover even if bitcoin would be going up again because some of them have no activities from the team and some are just abandoned. Some are still active but due to market situation, it just keeps going down.

In this bear market, many people give up and I would assume many would learn their lesson to always have a trading or investing strategy for that matter because if you have those before even buying a coin then you will not be frustrated seeing the price go down by the minute. It hurts to see that you are losing the value of your coin that's why you should know when to cut loss and then buy back when the market is somewhat stable. It takes a brave heart to trade especially in cryptocurrency when the prices are so volatile.


Well, OP has the option as well to just focus on one coin but then he should have a trading strategy in the first place. If he would focus on one coin then he should study the previous movements of the coin. It may be going down but there are times when it would bounce so he can take advantage of the small profits because it would be accumulated eventually.

It would depend on what is your financial status because those who are already has financial freedom would not be motivated by money. Well, except for some who aren't contented with what they have and they want to have more of it. When you are having financial problems, you will be more motivated to do something just to earn money but it would depend on your conscience then if you will be doing it in a legal or illegal way.


Those who are comfortable with their life and has already reach the financial status that they wanted would find other goals which would make living more enjoyable. Those who love their niche wouldn't mind of they are earning a little because it's what makes them happy. Basically, it would boil down to whatever makes them satisfied and happy.

If you want to let the managers know then better post it in their thread or write to them personally but then I bet, they wouldn't reply to you because they are too busy dealing with their own job. I though hope though that the managers would be able to address such issues because it would make them not trustworthy because they don't follow their own rule. Some managers are reputable though because they are strict and know their priorities.


There are managers who are doing a good job. It would be more advantageous if the reporting would be done on a google form so that there will be no need to post the report in the forum. It would be easier as well for the managers though to directly count it in the forms than check  in the thread but the problem is that there is so many cheaters who fill up the form claiming thee work of others as theirs.

As what is posted by OP, the choice to receive the salary in bitcoin is an option because they cannot just easily force it to their employees to just exclusively receive it in bitcoin since there would be employers who would not be interested in it. This is the advantage of having a company owner who is a cryptocurrency enthusiast because he knows how to introduce bitcoin to others which is through salary.

However, I am just concern in the part wherein they would deposit it in a cryptocurrency exchange because what if the exchange is hacked then their coin would be gone with it. It would be better to deposit it in the bitcoin wallet of the employees.

I do agree with the Chinese government when it comes to crackdown because there are so many scam ICOs out there. Scammers are taking advantage of the fact that there are no applicable regulations yet when it comes to implementing those ICOs so they are creating tokens out of thin air and hire some people who would create a website and a whitepaper for them. We are just lucky somehow that we have a community who would warn investors.


We can somehow reduce or totally eliminate the scammers if there are regulations because we will know the people behind those projects and they would be traceable. There are still legit ICOs out there who has brilliant ideas and would be a big help for the people to have ease of transactions.

We should make our mistakes be the stepping stones to become better in the future but unfortunately, only a few would recover from such failures especially if you have high hopes at the beginning. I am guilty of being impatient before because I want to earn as fast as possible and then the adverse effect happened wherein I am chasing trades always so I lose a lot then and decided to stop for a while. It's been months before I get back because I study trading again and learned from those who are successful with it.

I learned that the biggest challenge when it comes to trading is psychology. It is something that cannot be learned instantly but it would be gradual in which you can control or master your emotions in due time because you have rational thinking.

It would be a matter of accuracy then on his prediction. When you are trading, there is a higher chance of being able to predict accurately when you have a basis of your trading like when you use technical analysis or fundamantal analysis or the combination of both in which case the percentage of getting it right is higher.


You can also have the option to just buy a little bit of it in regular intervals so that you can have cost averaging. Through this way, you will not be affected that much by the price volatility and you can adjust your regular investment amount as well. Nowadays is a good buy but I don't suggest to buy it in a single price but in percentage.

Yes, it is one of their strategies to persuade people to still be positive about the market because many have left since the bear market especially those who lose a lot buying near all-time high of bitcoin. Given the situation right now, people are not so encourage to invest in cryptocurrency but a news like this would light a hope that somehow those losses would become profits in the years to come.


I doubt that as well but who knows, maybe it would come true. There are 7.6 billion people in the world currently so it may mean that majority of the countries would have already adopted cryptocurrency. It may be less likely but then again, bitcoin keeps surprising us.

There are times when the sell off is just a strategy of those big holders of the coins because they just want to protect their funds to further losses that's why they decide to sell their coins. Whether one is a legit or scam ICO, people still need fiat to finance their day to day operations because not every merchant accepts cryptocurrency that's why we can see a bearish market for ethereum.


It may also be one of the strategy of the traders who is shorting the market because they know that once the candle starts to go red and becomes bigger, there is a higher possibility of panic selling that's why a further downfall is most likely and it is more profitable for them. As for those ICOs, they are learning from this bear season that they should look for other ways to leverage so that they can still be profitable whatever market it is.
