I really enjoy reading this threads. Even my own "predictions". My crystal ball is now under maintnance as it proved to miss calculate a lot. So, i have two questions. - Are we going to see every coin ( at least the ones on top 20 or 30 on major exchanges) hit all time highs again, or on the next rally the market will be selective and start to leave some coins behind? - For DGB the DEV placed it a target of 1000/1 against BTC. Is this the target? or people are starting to feel it differently?

There are lotīs of sources and even courses and formations on trading and markets. As crypto is very specific, without a solid history established i still feel the best sources are informal ones. The number one source still remains this forum. there is a lot of free and quality info around. Study a little around google and then try to post more specific questions. People will be willing to help you for sure.

To be perfectly accurate you only know it was a bubble after it bursts. Because of the definition of bubble it self. As for BTC and crypto in general i think what we still see are early adopters of the tech. So with the potential of so many people coming to BTC I donīt think we are in a bubble as the price still has potencial to grow.

What do you guys think of Filecoin coming into this space? SIA in trouble?
didn't heard that before and i guess it wont interfere with SC its just sleeping for a while and waiting for bitcoin to make some steady movement then after that we will see more movements again just needed for the team to keep communicating with their investors. im doing some mininh together with eth claymores dual miner. So, when this discussion was opened Siacoin was about to moon and it was between 550 e 650 sats. Now it sits at 150. You keep saying and saying it's a good long term investment but what I see is: -investors mistrust -no development -no usage by anybody of the sia network except few terabytes -price falling and falling month after month Mark my words, before 2017 ends Sia will go below 100 sats. Let's say it how it is: you all bought a shitton of Siacoins and you saw your investment crash. The same way OP did you're trying to inspire trust and get people to buy. But you'll never, ever, see 300 Satoshis again(unless some enormous rumour that will cause the usual pump and dump). Supply is very big so I donīt now if it will be a good coin to be pumped. If any of those Pump groups decide to do it. I see a lot of dumpers around:)

Wanna learn more about Bitcoin's value. For future purposes. What can you say about this topic? Thanks for the good answer(s).
Considering the scalability problems with high transations times and costs and donīt see BTC as a currency for everyday use, like paying for a coffe. For the short to midterm with the expectations of Big increases in price even for other times of payment it wonīt spread because people will prefer to Hold or speculate on it to make money rather than spend it on everyday goods. For the long term i would see BTC more of a store of value asset than an everyday currency.

Why Is Bitcoin's Value So Volatile? I am confused to buy bitcoin now when it's value is too high.
I think itīs a very young investment with small real life use cases. So being a speculative asset itīs normal to have very big variations in price. That what makes it fun and is atracting so many people:)

Iīm trying to enter BTC from trading profits and online small jobs. So i donīt feel iīm BUYING:) itīs just mental stuff. But you are right to be carefull. I can see BTC at 10K but if the regulatory shakedown is hard enough lots of the "new" money that came in can just go out and creat some a good deep.

HI, i'm new in the cryptocurrency world and i would like to know some things: 1. Where do you trade altcoins/bitcoin and why? Bittrex/Poloniex? 2. Where's the best place to change bitcoin/altcoins into FIAT with the lowest fees? 3. What's your strategy in trading and how much do you invest in it? Thank you so much for all your answers!
1. Apart from the support problems iīm keeping in poloniex. However i like cryptopia for smaller, cheaper low volume coins. 2. I go for coinbase. However you should consider "in person" trading to avoid tax assle. 3. I still consider crypto high risk and in crypto BTC being the less high risk. that said. From my crypto portfolio iīm 50% BTC , 25% well established coins like Monero, 10-15% smaller cap long term riskier coins, like XBY or KMD, 10-15% dividend paying assets like TAAS. the percentages are rough estimates.

Is it better to save money in bank or invest it online, in real estate or maybe gold?
I think the "tradicional" rule of thumb still aplies. Have savings to support you through 6mo to a year of fixed/everyday expensives. Then some safe investment in traditional assets is always good - in my case is real estate long term (I donīt speculate on it, i buy and hold. I will either need when im older, or they are good starting point for my kids). Finaly i invest in riskier investments. For is crypto.

Read the the white paper
* Contains something like refer or invitation system, possibly scam * Wouldn't work without the bitcoin part in the real life, possibly scam too * Copy of other projects, scam
I tend to agree with you, however: - even UBER and other "real life" deals are offering referrel systems. - A disruptive, very inovative project on the blockchain would probably not work without the bitcoin part - After you see some succefull business you tend to have "similar" projects. Litcoin is a copy of bitcoin and it is not a scam. However to the average guy, with less knowlegde your advice is good, and could keep people away from dirty scammers.

... How many people here have at least one friend or family member who have recently -- out of the blue -- asked you to tell them again, "Hey what's the deal really with that bitcoin crypto currency stuff you were telling me about last year?" How many people have a very conservative friend who recently finally opened a coinbase account and put in even just a hundred bucks, to just START learning for themselves how all this stuff really works? I've had BOTH of those things happen to me recently, in the last month or two, and if it's even slightly representative of what's happening overall in a macro scale of adoption, then we are only at the very start of a really significant hockey-stick curve ramp-up coming over the next year or two. Could be wrong, though, of course... this is crypto, any damn weird thing can happen LOL -- but that's how it feels/looks to me I've had 2 in the past month. Both are conservative financially, one very much so (debt-free, lives well below his means, etc.). If someone like him opened a coinbase account, that's a big deal. Same here. after a lunch at a friends house. % days later i had a whatsapp message saying he spent 100 in coinbase. If the movements are anywhere near normal some of that BTC, LTC and ETH will flow to other alts. I did my part talking about monero...

China is a very big player and as everyone knows there is a lot of "new" money in BTC and crypto space. in the bigining of the year we saw BTC breaking 1000$. So for now there could be a lot of week hands dumping on china news. Maybe a good buy oportunity?
|
|

Irrelevant china...Donīt think there is such thing. There are many powerful players and china is and will be one of them. If they can alone move the market, they canīt. Thatīs why we all seek decentralization. so that no country, no corporation or no government gets so powerful that they alone can move the market their way.

Fun little thread idea. With BTC flying to pluto im sure many of have thought back and said "Fuck! I wish I didn't spend BTC on....." because now its worth so much more!
I'll go first.
Fuck! I wish I didn't spend BTC on the Gridseed Orb miners! That cost me 3.5 BTC back in the day! ROI is out the window. =(
whos next? mods, if this is not the right category please move, but I thought it might be.
Lizzi and bestchain. Too of the best gems i ever come across and actually spent BTC on:) They are too good examples of real shit. I did it the same way both time. I was around cryptopia and noticed very high volatility and decided to gamble as i sometimes do. and i got stuck with this too fine examples of shitcoins:)

So I have seen Coinbase is the main "source" for buying/selling BTC, but I was wondering if anyone has used the method of converting bitcoin to another currency when it reaches a high point, then converting it back to BTC when it is low enough.
If so, what wallet(s), exchanges, etc. are you using? And more specifically, what crypto do you recommend converting BTC to, in this situation?
Any help is appreciated!
For this kind of trading strategy you can use any exchange. however the ones with higher volumes and better established are better option. For me personaly is poloniex and bitfinex. Both have their issues but still work for me. There are other options. Just be carefull and dont be too greedy on your margins or you will be panicking and selling on oposite directions.

So are buying/selling prices roughly the same then?
Can you tell me what is the buy price of btc on bittrex right? And tell me what is the btc to usd price on google when you check on bittrex? Im curious how far is the price difference? Because if its the same... then couldnt i just make profit if someone is willing to pay me 2 percent extra? Like if they want 1 btc... i check price on bittrex. Then i tell them okay its this price + 2 percent so this much? However i would like to use the btc to usd rate on google though because thats how i usually do it with ppl i trade with. So would this work? Like once he agrees, then i immediately buy the btc on bittrex. Then he sends me the money online...then i send him that amount of btc etc? Thus its not like im buying and waiting to sell for 2 percent more. Im waiting for someone to tell me i want to buy btc now...do you have? Then i check bittrex and say sure... price is this plus 2 percent. Then they agree and pay me money, then i send btc. So wouldnt i make around 2 percent less the fees? Thus every 1000 dollars of btc i buy and sell to that person, wouldnt i make around 18 dollars or so?
If you head to the marketplace on this forum you will notice lots off advertisements stating they are selling or buying "preev+ x%". Preev is one of the most used price indicators around the forum, but you can use whatever price you choose. It is usual to "lock" the price once you agree on a transation so that you cant delay a transation because you are waiting for the prce change. So someone would send you a message saying " ok, we agree that i sell 0,5 BTC for 2000$. and even if the price changes the next minutes hours your transation is a the agreed price. If you can provide a service here selling and buying BTC , yes you can make a profit.
