5501  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: How to Protect Your Crypto Wallet if Someone Searches Your Phone? on: February 01, 2020, 06:01:20 PM
What country does have a law like that? I'm not aware such law exists if any. AFAIK, phones can only just be held by the authorities if that is subject to investigation e.g suspected of being used as a tool associated with a crime, consider as strong proof of evidence, etc. or something along those lines.
I think such scenario is rampart with countries in Africa or such that are governed by tyrants and dictators. In a sane society, such arbitrariness isn't tolerated except where national security is threatened. However, the OP can find a way of putting pin lock or password to apps he has on phone. For instance, the Bitcoin blockchain  for BTC has a provision for pin code. Blockfolio has too. Imtoken has also, and so many other apps do have them.
5502  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is this Right Time to buy Some ALT coins? on: February 01, 2020, 05:25:11 PM
Surely an approximate time for altcoins with prospect but not shitcoins. Shitcoins don't have approximate time because they are merely pump for dump purpose.
Therefore, altcoins like litecoin is likely to be a good buy now. It is yet to make a huge move and nothing will stop that from happening as soon as bitcoin is good to bull.
The truth remains that even the shitcoins are only known from hindsight and not while the event is still current. By the way, how do we even define shitcoins? Is it by price level or what? I have done Walton that I bought at ATH but today Walton is barely up to 80cent. This was a coin I believed was solid but what has become of it today? Do we regard WTC as a shitcoin then? Besides, those who keep asking same pattern of question as the OP are actually never ready to invest. They're merely trolling.
5503  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [VIDEO]The Empirical Proof of Bitcoin's Real Value Being Zero on: January 31, 2020, 10:26:47 PM
The linked 5-minute video provides a simple and undeniable proof that the real value of Bitcoin is zero. It does that by showing that Bitcoin lacks the fundamental feature for which all financial instruments exist in the first place, and that is to provide payment to their holders.

https://youtu.be/WSYTXmxPveY
I bet this is another FUD technique from one of the whales or financial institutions wanting Bitcoin price to crash for their selfish target. Well, such a device mechanism won't work now because the people are already hooked on Bitcoin. You can try this trash with the altcoins, I might work. But certainly not with Bitcoin. We move.
5504  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: All Bitcoin SV STOLEN from Latest version Electrum SV Wallet BEWARE!! on: January 31, 2020, 10:14:57 AM
I don't know who has to hear this, I have said it time without numbers that people should be very weary of the Electrum wallet. If people can, they should totally ignore using that wallet pending when the issue around its fragility and susceptibility are resolved.

Important information: Twitter CEO and Co-Founder hosted a Bitcoin Meetup in Nigeria!

Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain are taking over the world amd the best of all is that Nigeria isn't left out.

Link to the thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5200114.0
This na why I dey envy people wey dey Lagos, ABJ and PHC. I hope set the Lagos guys took up that opportunity to meet the chairmo and rub minds with am. For Owerri here wey I dey ehn, na die. We nor dey get such opportunities. People wey dey even show up na talkative wey dem nor really sabi the stuff sef.
5506  Economy / Exchanges / Re: [List] Instant exchanges on: January 31, 2020, 03:40:11 AM
Thanks for the list, I want to try Godex because that site doesn't require registration and no KYC why it has been not popular yet when shapeshift and chagelly has lot of issues recently? Huh

They can be trusted for any amount?
I think it's a matter of time before Godex goes hard on the KYC stuff. Remember, Changelly was like that when it started operations until it had to force users (I was affected too) to a mandatory KYC. Let's enjoy the Godex moment while it lasts. This isn't taking anything away from the OP's compilation compilation.
5507  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in football on: January 30, 2020, 09:09:45 PM
It's a good thing to see such displays. In fact, it's a reassuring sign worthy of note that Bitcoin is slowly but steadily creeping into different facets of daily life. Sports adverts is the way to go for easy spread. But then Bitcoin itself doesn't pay for ads. I am sure it will be worth it if new crypto projects can advertise this way to leave an impression on the mind of any who sees it.
5508  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I lost all my bitcoin on: January 27, 2020, 12:37:47 PM

Going short or long has got me so much money but at the same time, it makes me too bold.

 

Now what?

Stop doing it? or Start diversified investment in Stock?

or Not at all?
I am still struggling to understand the connection between your post as the OP and the topic title you have here. Am I the only one trying out this puzzle?
5509  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Coronavirus Outbreak on: January 27, 2020, 12:13:34 PM
It's really worrisome when we look at the speed at which this Corona virus is spreading now though the entire world and leaving casualties in its trail. It's a no-joke stuff at all. I strongly believe it's even worse than Ebola. So, all hands should be on deck to curtail its spread.
5510  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Chinese Crypto Vs Corona Virus on: January 27, 2020, 10:19:18 AM
China isn't even a crypto friendly country yo start with. Remember the ban on Bitcoin by China in 2017 that nearly devastated the world. While I acknowledge the effect of the Corona outbreak on the entire world, I think China will be greatly hit because of its tourism and the restrictions that are now placed on travel to that country. How this is going to affect cryptocurrency, for me, remains a figment of the OP's imagination. It won't! Except crypto whales  Egon to die from the contagious outbreak.
5511  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Altcoin's Price Jump? on: January 27, 2020, 08:55:21 AM
If the price of the Altcoin goes up, then the Bitcoin value will go up. The reason is that when the price of Bitcoin goes up, the price of Altcoin goes up as well.
If people start buying Altcoin more than today, the price of Bitcoin will go up as well.
If the price of Bitcoin goes up by 2021, it will be a record.
Am I right?
No, it's the other way round. Altcoins only go up when Bitcoin price goes up. It's simple logic - whenever Bitcoin price surges, investors tend to look for penny tokens to invest in as it ordinarily will look like Bitcoin price gets out of hand and that causes altcoins to appreciate in price. Demand causes price rise.
5512  Economy / Speculation / Re: Corona Virus will Impact the price of Bitcoin ? on: January 26, 2020, 11:53:33 AM
would you please stop all the world events connecting to bitcoin price?why is it everything that happens in every part of the world has been putting into Bitcoin?Virus cannot affect Bitcoin movement because people will use Bitcoin even the effect will come wide.
The OP's statement isn't out of place at all. Anything that impacts the price of the US dollar also invariably affects the price of gold, and lately Bitcoin. This is because whenever the US dollar is doubtful investors tend to turn to gold/Swiss CHE/Japanese JPY/BTC as s safe Haven. So, I expect Bitcoin price to soar if this Corona epidemic continues unabated.
5513  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Multiple Round ICOs? on: January 25, 2020, 06:27:41 PM
Have you heard of ICOs with multiple rounds? Like they raise a certain amount of money now, use that money for primary aims and goals, and then a few months/years down the line (as part of their original plan) launch a second round to fund additional goals and further project development? Just wondering if this is a thing, if so please provide me with some links to projects that have done so.
This happens often. In fact, there were projects which had another round of their ICOs last year after they failed to properly propel the project ahead. Some even had their first ICO in 2018 but came back to the market in 2019. There is one I am currently involved in as a bounty hunter which is trying to have another ICO but investors are not accepting that line of thought. The investors want the team to work on the project with whatever money made in the first ICO.
5514  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My funds have been stolen! on: January 24, 2020, 09:59:26 AM

Let me ask if where did you download the Electrum wallet? You might be using the fake one.
The correct electrum URL is electrum.org if you download it to a different URL it's 100% fake electrum that can steal all of your funds.
To avoid any type of complications, this was why I stopped using the electrum wallet entirely. And I think Electrum isn't even doing enough sensitization on the difference in the URL to help users not falling prey to scammers. I believe this is also causing them patronage.
5515  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will NOT surpass traditional methods of payment. Convince me. on: January 24, 2020, 09:06:49 AM
Sadly, I am one of those who strongly believe that "Bitcoin will NOT surpass traditional methods of payment." It's commonsense to note that the tech behind Bitcoin or cryptocurrency is embedded in the internet, electricity and knowledge of the tech world. More than half of the world's population is still illiterate and can't have a handle on this Bitcoin tech.
5516  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stay Away of this scam Coin on: January 23, 2020, 01:07:25 PM
I'm sure some people will still go on investing on it despite the early sign. Instead of allowing the coin to dump and die a natural death but they will invest to pump it. I once invested in such kind of coin and till today, I have regretted it.
What are these early signs? Don't tell me you've easily been bought over by the OP's senseless cry of wolf. He's mere bush talking without any substance of proof. I wish the Crex24 team can find him in person and sue the hell out of him for destroying their reputation. What does he mean by all the coins on that exchange being scam. I have an account with Crex24 and I do skeletal trading there. I haven't found any scam on them. Pumps aren't same as scam. Every exchange (including Binance) has a share of pumps and dumps too.
5517  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is IEO better than ICO? on: January 23, 2020, 04:45:59 AM
Although Ieo is not better than Ico, but at least Ieo can make investors feel more secure in participating Ieo, because investors do not need to be afraid or worried if later the coin does not have an exchange like Ico coins, because usually projects that put on Ieo in an exchange such as probit, binance or other exchanges certainly most likely the tokens will be listed on the exchange.
I think this is about the only striking difference - finding an exchange to list on. Apart from this, both are the same this day with tokens crashing as soon as they get to the market and investors don't get to make any profit. Gone are the days when IEOs brought in a great ROI for investors. Not any more. Except things change going forward.
5518  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: The future of bounty looks uncertain on: January 20, 2020, 04:25:08 PM
You're absolutely right about exchange bounties being a complete waste of time. I don't even touch them with a pole. All the ones I participated in the past turned out to be shitty, some even were scams like the EOSex bounty. However, even with seemingly death of ICOs and IEOs, I still believe bounties aren't going to completely die off. I know that with time a new method of achieving success will be discovered and explored.
5519  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which game do you guys play to earn crypto or for fun? on: January 20, 2020, 03:19:43 PM



I have been playing Rankingball because i like the concept that you can play the game and watch NBA

and EPL simultaneously. But these days i am looking for a game that i can earn crypto alot and fast.

Is there one?
May be what you're looking for is a faucet. A few years ago faucets were fun to indulge because payouts were not a joke as there are today. I did play a few to earn Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dogecoins when I began this crypto journey but I won't advise anyone today to go the way of faucets in trying to earn Bitcoin. It's mere slavery and that's why I haven't bothered to suggest any of the sites I played on in the past. To say the least, faucets are a waste of time.
5520  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Daily Living on: January 20, 2020, 03:11:03 PM
Unfortunately, volatility is still a feature of these currencies, therefore it attracts speculators and those who believe in their long-term value more than ordinary traders.

Volatility is something that need to be addressed if we want to have a living on bitcoin. Within days bitcoin can have a jump of over 1000 USD. If we dont have stable BTC price we will continue to have BTC that will be only an asset of storage.
How do you control or address volatility? Kill all the whales and confiscate their hodlings? Of course, that isn't going to happen. Besides, volatility is what makes Bitcoin popular and what it is. Some of us need that volatility to excite trades. Without it the market seemingly stays down.
