The world of cryptocurrencies has exploded like never before in 2017. The price of Bitcoin has catapulted to over $7000 for the first time in its history. There has also been an increase in the number of initial coin offerings (ICOs). According to CoinDesk, since Jan 2017, ICOs went from roughly $300 million raised in total since they began in 2014, to $2.7 billion raised as of October.

Many banks love the blockchain technology.
In my country, our banks is learning about it and trying to adopt the technology, but they're like hating bitcoin.
I don't know why, but wish our banks adopt it fast, too.

Hi Im trying to log into Blockchain.info I can access my CP but I cant see my Balance , its frozen and another panel showing $0.00. Was about to do a split second transaction and get back to other things , now Im stuck. Anyone experienced this today or even before ? Thanks

A trend has been started that bitcoin is now used only for raising income by buying and selling it but we are ignoring its most important fact that it was created to be used as currency and if it can be used as the currency it would really help community to enjoy its eases and regions who are accepting btc must have to start it as currency this will automatically boost user no's as well a prices,

Yobit does have a lot of scam coins in their exchange and i am sure they are ones who come up with those coins and hype them in the chat section and then dump when people invest in it and that coin is dead and they will move into a new one and this is happening for a long time.

I know this means initial coin offering.  I also know there is a section of it on this forum.



So what i want to know is this.  When something like this occurs and you want to take part in it, say whatever coin it is, how do you do it?  And when you do, do you need to give them a btc deposit on how much of that coin you want?  When would you know how much that coin costs? 



The thing is i want to use an example of a few coins.  For example, i know waves and shift are sort of new... well waves is not that new but shift is.  Well if i heard about waves, i probably would definitely buy this coin because it sounds very good.  Yes i know that sounds foolish to say.  But when waves and shift came out, how many shares do most ppl buy when it comes out?  Do you have to put a deposit before the coin comes out with btc such as i want x amount of waves or shift?  The other thing i want to know is how long does it take for a coin to come out and then it explodes to the point where everyone talks about it on the altcoin discussion or speculation?



And is that subforum here the only way to know about the new ico's?  The issue though is when i visit that subforum, it looks like a lot of spam etc.  Like there are posts everywhere and so many coins etc.  But is there a way to find out what new coins has come out recently?  But if he did come out recently, wouldn't that mean you didn't take part in the ico and you have to buy through an exchange?  Or this would not be possible though because its too early?


For example, when waves and shift came out, assuming you didn't take part in the ico... how soon could you buy waves and shift through bittrex?  Or could you buy it through their website?


The thing is i want to know of new coins that are coming out and then i would research it a bit and then would definitely be interested in buying some of these coins especially if they are very cheap.  I mean i can't believe coins like waves and shift in the history showed that they started out as 20 cents or 1 cent or even less than that etc.

Maybe it works real transaction like sending money,loading,bills if you have good  internet connection thats no problem about that.But theres people not using internet they want to have transaction to office or branches,they have more that they don,t know what bitcoin is they afraid to use in real transaction but and they dont know how much is currency per bitcoin to there countries thats why they dont buy bitcoin.

•In converting Bitcoins to money is still called trading?  

•In connection with the percentage or price of bitcoins I will go and exchange it to buy in lower price value and sell and high?

•Will that be a good help? for make my money anonymously grow?

If we talk  about the security of both of them then I think both of them are very secure.. I am using both of them from an year and I do not have faced any issue from them while if we talk about the expenditure then I will suggest for to use blockchain because the fees of blockchain is very low and you can set your own fees while xapo has a high fees.

In my opinion, the ICO's is very dangerous. You do not know someday, you can lose money because it is high risky. The ICO's made the cryptocurrency world became a bad place in the eye of some investors in past time. You can see the Chinese government have banned ICO's to keep safe their economy. It like a threat to cryptocurrency for  the future.

hi guys, i was wondering where should i invest? invest in trading crypto or in trading stocks? which is more profitable?

i need your opinion guys, thanks

Keeping track of user’s activities? I don’t really see anything wrong with that, and I won’t even bother if that was to really happen. Only those that wouldn’t like to see that happen are those that are into illegal stuffs and making use of dark webs to carry out their evil plans.

I don’t do anything evil, so I wouldn’t mind. Being legalized and regulated will give us freedom to do almost anything with bitcoin, but it can never be legalized and controlled by government, because it is decentralized. Government can only control something that is within its country.

To those who would want to take the chance, now is just their best shot. Since the news was dropped, a lot of the altcoins are already springing up and we are going to end up having a huge push to the moon for most of them very soon. Any smart person now will quickly take to the exchanges to do the needful.

But in my experiences, altcoins are only good for short term and long term holding is not at all recommended. We must focus on highly established coins when concern about long term holding. But unfortunately after litecoin and eth, I am not seeing anything suitable for long term holding.

Source I wrote above.... it looks like this.

Right. If Bitcoin dies, it will be an opportunity for the others cryptocurrency continue developing stronger. For sure that Ethereum will take the first place from Bitcoin. However, Bitcoin won't die and it will take the first place very long. Absolutely Bitcoin's death won't affect to the others altcoin.

I think it will be more accepted as a payment system where they can use for remittances but not as an investment.
Majority of the filipino still do not understand about bitcoin and our media is not showing the positive side of bitcoin, it will take time before they can understand and that will only happen when bitcoin are rampantly use in big countries and our government will support it.

We have discovered a malfunction of our Liquidity Provider’s bridge function. In result of the malfunction, our Bitcoin Cash Liquidity Provider has not been able to fill our Clients’ orders since 11th November 08:55 UTC. Acting in accordance with point 27.2 of SimpleFX Terms of Use and Customer Agreement, we were forced to cancel all BCH trades placed after the above-mentioned time.

Trading on BCH currency pairs will remain halted until the issue with current Liquidity Provider is fixed, or until we come to an arrangement with a new Liquidity Provider.

It's extremely hard picking 1 alt to invest 1,5$ and expect to get 150 even if it's more than 1 year. But it's definitely possible by doing daily trade if you have some experience on it. It's better to get some job and invest some of you wage later rather than working hard in daily trading from 1,5$ starting capital.

You would probably need a license for it . One thing that I have extensively read from fellow traders in the US, is that its hard to sell bitcoins without the license.I also don't expect you would get a serious and completely accurate reply on btctalk, so would suggest asking a lawyer rregarding this.
