361  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Founder of Cardano and crypto Youtuber in an MMA match! on: December 09, 2019, 08:11:04 AM
OMG, this is very strange and really weird lol. Upon all the things they could have done to raise money, they chose to fight among themselves to do that. In someway they are right also, many people would patronize this event and this would help them raise them much money other than just announcing this on any of their social media channels. I just hope they don't hurt themselves that bad in the ring but  hope the founder of Cardano wins this fight Grin
Maybe it's a unique way to help others and it's a bit too much but since they wanted to get the people's attention then probably their idea will be successful particularly nowadays that people are interested into these kind of things. They are also famous enough that is why they can easily get enough money to donate in the hospital. Well there still some other way but they choose it and we can't do anything regarding it since it's their choice, we just need to respect it even if it is possible that it may bring some problems between the two of them. Looking forward to see it.

Good job. I appreciate  the work , all-over  merchants should  increase bitcoin  adoption. People  will definitely start using  bitcoin. Should  start using in our day to day life, If people start using it one day government also gonna accept , but should wait for that. As you have thought if every merchants starts accepting bitcoin then definitely its a boom.

Good Luck Man.
Indeed, it's a great start to improve bitcoin adoption though it will never be easy because there are some governments who are against with bitcoin until now. It's difficult because bitcoin was already able to prove itself that it is beneficial and it is capable on giving us opportunities yet they are looking on a negative side of it. Good to see that someone is finding some way to make people get into bitcoin, I also hope that someday government will finally realize the the opportunity that they have lost.
363  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: which books have you read on: December 08, 2019, 11:39:03 AM
Actually, I haven't read any books related in trading but i'm looking for it particularly now that you have mentioned the books that might help us enhance our understanding and knowledge when it comes to trading. It will be a great new exploration that can everyone particularly newbies who's a bit confuse up until now. It's an amazing way to spend our spare time because it is fun, exciting and you can also learn a lot of things. It's also good for people who don't trust some information on the internet because they can just read some books and identify the answers to their questions. Thanks for sharing it.
364  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the faith of Scammers if bitcoin later becomes a traceable Currency. on: December 08, 2019, 07:41:30 AM
How many scammers who scam people with fiat have been caught? Not all of them because majority don't  use real identity, same applies to scammers of btc or crypto most of them don't use their real identity to scam online, peop6 use fake id on exchange, even if btc becomes traceable someday i doubt the authorities will going after each scammers online, it will be a huge workload,
Hackers are more clever than use their real identity to hack unfortunately, those are the big fish that needs the attention of the authorities.

They will always find ways to make scam even using crypto or fiat money . Even the bitcoin is tracesable they will also find many ways to make the money more clean before getting it as fiat currency .  They can only trace the address but they will never who own that address and that was the hard part.
I agree with you that it will be difficult for them to find it out but anything is possible when it comes to money so what can we expect? it's absolutely true that they are going to do anything just to get what they wanted, they will always figure out how they can deceive and take advantage of you. Scammers are getting wiser these days and it is the reason why we need to be more aware of our surroundings and be cautious in every decision we make.
365  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Whats the future of Altcoin on: December 08, 2019, 06:13:01 AM
Giving advice is very difficult even though we know which projects are good or which are bad. Difficult in the sense that sometimes the predictions we give may not provide benefits even though the project is good or vice versa. Therefore, I suggest trusting you with your choice, which is certainly not of random origin but through thoughts.
Indeed, it's much better if we explore things on our own because in that way we can easily identify which projects is the best for us. It's because some of you may think that the project that we have suggested is either good or bad in your own perspective. At least when you have done your own exploration then you can't blame others i you ever made bad decision. There are still good projects out there, some of them are still profitable and beneficial but you should be careful because some of them might deceive you through words and take advantage of you so be cautious.
366  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The importance of bitcoins :) on: December 08, 2019, 05:26:18 AM
As for me it is an amazing source of Income , it may not be 100% what you could want , but it helps you get those late night pizzas I might say .
If you are a student it becomes even more necessary because as a student you are not allowed to work , all you could do is rely on it as an independent source of income apart from all the society ( don't know about other sources but in medical you are not allowed to work ).
This is my reason too on why bitcoin is important to me. Being a broke college student you can't just ask for money from your parents, specialy if you're above 18 yrs old. Adulthood is what lead me to bitcoin, searching for some income I can make online and end up with bitcoins which really helps me big time.
I can totally relate with this  Sad life isn't fair, it's already given and so opportunity like this with bitcoin is so much for me to grab. Adulthood really hit me hard, it suddenly struck my mind that I should spend wisely given by my parents, so if I want to buy my other needs I should seek money on my own. Bitcoin helped me through a lot in financial terms especially when it reached its ATH in 2017 that totally give me goosebumps earning a lot of money.
I also feel the same way, when you feel so hopeless and you think your life is falling apart because you don't have enough money to buy what you need to survive. Bitcoin gives me the idea of being financially stable and successful, it is so beneficial in different ways and that is the reason why until now i'm grateful that I encountered bitcoin during my bad days. It gives me hope that someday i'll earn enough money to buy what I want and what I need, that day finally comes and I can't just stop being happy that the risk is worth it despite of doubting at first.
367  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Recent Icos facts on: December 07, 2019, 02:34:01 PM
Currently, investing in ICOs is a huge risky situation. The vast majority of ICOs are either turned into scams or canceled because its did not raise enough funds. And i think this will continue as long as there is no positive movement in altcoin prices. Therefore, it is a safer and more logical way to invest in top subcoins instead of taking any such risk at this stage.
Indeed, most of them are made to deceive people and take advantage on them that is the reason why many of us are still doubt to invest in ICO's and it's not our fault to feel that way because many of us have experienced it. I don't underestimate their capabilities but we can't change the fact that the reputation of ICO's are ruined because of scam issues. It should be the reason why we have to be cautious particularly these days because some of us is can easily deceive by their words and we tend to believe in them without making sure.
368  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why Consider All Altcoins Bad on: December 07, 2019, 12:31:01 PM
It is clear that not all altcoins are bad. They just have such a reputation because most of them turned out to be scammers. But it is impossible to speak so categorically, interesting projects still continue to appear.
Most of them are made to deceive people and take advantage of them that is why I can't also blame those people for thinking that way because they have bad experiences that makes them hard to trust and keep their faith in altcoins again but we don't have to generalize it. Some of them are still worth the risk and beneficial, we just need to find out which one. It's a bit difficult these days because of scam issues but as long as you know the things that you need to do to find out which is the best one then it's a great advantage for you. They can't just expect people to keep on trusting it despite of scams regarding it because most of them becomes a victim too and I know that it is kind of hard for them to change their perception because of what they have experience.
369  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Experience of A Bitcoin User on: December 07, 2019, 08:51:09 AM
Those who have online accounts not just for crypto or bitcoin should always be aware of their accounts, emails, websites they visited. They must be able to learn how to secure themselves since it's a online space and many is just waiting for some users to be a victim. Don't be phished ,use 2FA and don't visit download links that came from random users.
Sometimes we create our own problem and it is the reason why up until now many of us are experiencing scam, there are a lot of scam issues these days that's why they should realize the things they need to do in order to avoid facing the same problem. We should be cautious on every decision that we are making because we don't know the true intention of others and the only way to protect ourselves is to check and have some research. I have read some of other people's experiences and I have learned something from it, it made me realize that we are capable on putting ourselves into hard situations. Particularly newbies, they tend to open the link inside the email from unknown source because they are pretty curious about it but little did they know that they are just putting themselves at risk? we should be attentive and learn from your own experience to make sure that your funds and assets are in a safe place.
370  Economy / Economics / Re: Fiat Vs Cryptocurrency, which would you choose? on: December 07, 2019, 06:31:04 AM
If Bitcoin is legalized everywhere, I will definitely go with it.

The thing here is that Bitcoin/cryptocurrencies and fiat are like a combo for now.

Trading, investing, they do not stay on the boat of just one, we put ourselves on these both boats in order to get a good profit in the near future. If we will just be focussing on one, we will not be able to use that profit since we all know not all of the countries will be accepting cryptos. Some leaders hate it, some like the idea of it and want to use it in a longer period of time. For me, I can't use Bitcoin every day, I also need to rely on Bitcoin's exchange on fiat since not all of the stores would even accept it, I will not choose but use these two.
It's true that some governments are against with cryptocurrency and that is the reason why up until now we are using fiat, they both have advantages but we all know that using cryptocurrency is less hassle that's why most of us prefer on using it than fiat. On the other hand, some people from rural areas are does not even know that a digital currency existed. It will be difficult for them to understand on how it works because they grew up using fiat as a currency and without using technology, well unless there is someone who's willing to enlighten them about it. It isn't bad using both because they are both beneficial to us, also it's a matter of preferences.
371  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sale my old bike and buy bitcoin, what do you think? on: December 07, 2019, 05:31:46 AM
Nobody can tell you exactly where we would go. It might rise or Bitcoin might get another $3k, who knows. That being said, investment is never guaranteed, you should always prepare for the loss. Did you put all the money on your investment? I hope you didn't do that. Better save some for other investments so you can diversify your portfolio.

There is no wrong or right decision (at least we don't know it now yet). Don't be overly optimistic or pessimistic, just follow the market and you should do fine.
Sometimes it depends on how you handle your own investment and how you make your choices, just use your knowledge and patience to be successful because investing is risky specially when you have used all of your funds. You may experience losing some money but it usually happens and it will be your choice if you are willing to take that risk again to earn profit. It's not bad to take the opportunity to invest because everything will be worth it if you are wise at making decisions. Also, don't expect too much and don't make yourself believe in those price prediction because it can influence your decision making.
372  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons to be thankful than hate him on: December 06, 2019, 05:57:29 PM
Actually haters and lover everywhere.Don't be upset if one of your close person Against bitcoin.Maybe someone hate because they don't what is bitcoin.And few hate because of media hates bitcoin.Even few of my friends hate bitcoin because of pump and dump lol.but i love to use bitcoin and trying to buy,earn every month.    
There will always some people who's going to judge bitcoin no matter what it do despite of being beneficial to us, i'm trying to understand those people who hates bitcoin because I know that they don't have enough knowledge about it. It's kind of sad to see that they underestimate something that changed the life of many of us, what can we expect to those kind of people? they are just trying to make us feel that bitcoin is not worth it but despite of that bitcoin was able to prove itself. Satoshi did a great job and i'm grateful because my life becomes better when I encountered bitcoin even if i'm in doubt at first I never regret anything not even on taking risk because I have realized that risking is better than losing an opportunity.
373  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: my story: why bitcoin has failed (and keeps failing to this day) on: December 06, 2019, 04:55:12 PM
I think OP is having a breakdown right now because of what happen to his investment. Don't worry OP almost everyone around here experience the same as you while there are who is more unfortunate than you. Don't just give up because you've lost a lot in the past. Learn to correct your mistake by doing another right thing. This is how the market work and you should have known it already.
It's obvious he doesn't know what he entered. I di experience this but did not rant coz I know what the market is, what to do and what to expect least. How could you label bitcoin as a failure when it is just starting yet? Blockchain technology is getting adopted by various big companires and as you compare for the price of bitcoin than it was already measure how long did it go. What has failed is the OP, he failed for expecting too much. OP should what the risk is, hence, it's worth taking the risk as long as you've learn from it.
Indeed, OP chooses to take risk to earn profit and it doesn't turn out great like he/she expected. I can't see any reason why he have to blame bitcoin for his/her stupid actions and decisions. What can we expect? we can't assure ourselves that there will be no conflict when it comes to our investment. It usually happens and we just need to accept that there will always be some downfall but we should not let it ruin our goals because there are rooms for improvements. Let's just use our past experiences as guide to make wiser decisions and actions in the future so we will not feel remorse regarding bitcoin failing to do what we want because it depends on how we we make our choices. We should never feel hopeless because bitcoin is still capable on giving us opportunities.
374  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In the next decade, BTC and digital currencies will “fully” replace fiat? on: December 06, 2019, 03:40:57 PM
Ten years is not enough for bitcoin and altcoins to replace fiat currency. There are many requirements that must be fulfilled before this can happen.

And I don't know where this Deutsche Bank Research made thier prediction. And this reasearch doesn't think about people who are ignorant of bitcoin / altcoins and how these people would accept bitcoin.

I do agree with that. 10 years is quite short to have crypto in the mainstream market. Up until now, crypto users are still very low in number as compared to the global population. And considering that we already celebrated the 10th anniv of bitcoin. Though the adoption is growing fast, yet there are still remote areas that up until now are not influenced by advance technology, so how much more with crypto usage? Fiat would still be the main currency worlwide, ten years from now. Just my thoughts here.
Indeed, there are still a lot of people from rural areas who are not familiar with cryptocurrency. Some of them does not even know that a digital currency existed in this world and I think it will be difficult for them to understand it. It will take a long time before it can replace fiat and by just looking at it, a decade will never be enough particularly these days that there are some politicians who's against with bitcoin and any other digital currencies. Using cryptocurrency has a lot of advantages but replacing fiat with crypto can have a positive and negative impact on crypto itself. Well no one knows what will happen in the future, let's just wait and see.
375  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Teach me how to fish on: December 06, 2019, 02:50:25 PM
Everyone keeps pointing to trading as the best alternative to earning in this bear market but my past experience about trading was bad and now i am willing to give a try again, can any one give me good guide? don't just tell me to find strategy without giving me any, teach me how to fish
You need a fishing rod, a place with lots of fish and the right strategy for fishing. Fishing is not so easy either. Anyway, to being successful in trade, you should not move away in every mistake, on the contrary get closer. Remember, the best lesson in trade is taken from bad experiences. And do not be ambitious to recover your old losses. Also do not try to make a quick gain. "Do not wait for the fish in your location, look where they are".
I always remind this to myself because I know that not all of your mistakes is bad most of them are just challenges to make us stronger and wiser, it depends on us if we are going to acquire it. Trading is speculative and it is difficult, you need to put a lot of your time and effort to earn profit. There will be some times that you are going to experience losing and you just need to use that experience as an inspiration to make yourself more knowledgeable. You should consider your past experiences because it can help to build a better you in the future even on your trading. Having enough patience is also needed, you don't have to feel so hopeless that you are not going to earn because you have lose your chance before. There will always be some room for new opportunities and learning, you just need to open yourself for it and be patient just like on what they have said that in every difficulty, there is an opportunity.
376  Local / Altcoins (Pilipinas) / Re: [UPDATE] Senior advisor for the Dash Core Group has apparently disappeared on: December 05, 2019, 04:14:15 PM
Kung patuloy na madadagdagan pa ang mga ganitong klase ng balita, sa tingin ko mapapabagal nito ang crypto global adoption. Nakakalungkot isipin na dumadami na ang naglalabasan na pilit sumisira sa mundo ng digital currency.
Yung mga ganitong pangyayari talaga yung nakakapangit ng imahe sa crypto. Kaya madaming tao na kapag aware sa mga ganitong balita ang share-an mo ng tungkol sa bitcoin at crypto, ganyan lang ang isasagot niyan. Baka lang din mawala yung pera nila dahil sa mga ganyang tao pero ang katotohanan hindi nila lubos parin naunawaan kung ano ang crypto. Kaso nga lang yung reputasyon ng mismong market ng crypto ang nakasalalay dahil sa mga ganitong insidente.
Totoo yan madami na akong na encounter na mga tao at iniisip nila na walang magandang maidudulot yung crypto sa kanila dahil nga sa mga nababasa nila na mga scam incidents. Kaya nga hindi na din nakakapagtaka kasi kahit ako minsan natatakot na din, aminin na natin na kahit meron tayong sapat na kaalaman may times na nabibiktima pa din tayo ng scams. Hindi ko sila masisisi na ganyan yung tingin nila kasi totoo din naman na napala risky ang World ng cryptocurrency at nakadepende yan sa'yo kung willing kang Itake yung risk na yun para kumita. Nakakalungkot lang isipin na may mga ganyang pangyayari, tinetake advantage nila masyado yung mga gaya natin.

Investors should push this on a legal court, with our current laws I’m sure they can’t hide from this forever. So many failed projects and scammer developers, its hard to trust small exchanges now. I advices for traders to choose wisely and don’t go all in and don’t put big money on small exchanges. These kind of people will never find the real happiness in life, karma will follow them.
Indeed, they have to suffer the consequences of their actions so they can learn their lesson. It is the reason why we have to be very cautious these days because we can't easily tell their true intention and the only thing that you can do is be aware of the things that is currently happening. A lot of us had experienced being victimised by scam projects and in order to avoid it, we should be wise in every decision we make. If you don't want your funds to be wasted for nothing then be careful and always do some research because people nowadays will do everything for money and nothing is impossible for them. They will always take advantage of you if they get the chance.
378  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Uri ng wallets , gaanu sila ka safe on: December 04, 2019, 08:55:31 AM
Di ko pa natry gumamit ng paper wallet and para sakin hinde ito safe lalo na kung medyo burara ka sa gamit.
Tinamaan ako dito HAHA. Kaya mas gusto ko hardware wallet eh, medyo solid sa feeling kaya mahirap mawala sa pakiramdam ko. Plus, online wallet and computer wallets are generally not trusted. Wag na wag magiiwan ng not used funds sa exchanges or online wallets, super not recommended na gawin to, lalo na at talamak ang mga hackers sa crypto space since bago lang yung karamihan. Pag naghohold lang, store mo sa hardware wallet mo, guaranteed security, pag nanakawan ka nga lang though, you dead.
Ganyan din yung sinasabi ko sa iba, masyado kasi sila nagtitiwala na yung funds nila hindi mawawala lalo na pagdating sa mga exchanges kasi madami na sa atin ang nakaexperience na mawalan ng funds dahil dito. Dapat talaga mas maging maingat at maging cautious tayo lalo na sa pagpili ng wallet na gagamitin natin. Yung mga hackers kasi gagawa at gagawa sila ng mga paraan para makuha yung benefits na gusto nila kaya dapat maging alerto lalo na kung online wallet gamit mo, 'wag din kayo basta bastang magtitiwala at maniniwala kasi hindi mo alam yung totoong intensyon ng mga tao ngayon. Magandang guide ito para sa mga baguhan kasi mabibigyan sila ng idea kung saan nila pwedeng istore yung funds and assets nila.
379  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Certificates on the Blockchain on: December 04, 2019, 08:01:15 AM
Okay sana sya kaso dahil mas nakasanayan na natin ang printed certificates at maninibago tayo sa ganito? May mga certificate kasi na mga pang awards lang, meron din naman yung mga personal. Which is for awards, maganda sya na printed kasi display tapos yung mga important naman, kadalasan ginagamit. Siguro ang magandang application ng certificate na digital is parang back up lang in case mawala, sudden loss from calamities, mga ganun.
Isa din kasing mahirap, once na iniinput natin lahat ng information about satin digital, mas vulnerable tayo sa mga kung ano anong klaseng scam at kung ano pa.
normal naman sa tao na nag aadjust sa panahon maski nga mga gamit natin sa bahay ngayon high-tech na. Well bago nila open up ung ganyang idea sigurado naman na meron silang sulosyon sa nga pwedeng maging problema. Pero para sakin magandang panimulain nadin ito kasi sa susunod ung ibang problema na makita nila is masosolve na susunod nagagaya din.
Tama ka diyan, kaya why not try? para makita kung mas maiimprove pa nila ito if ever na may problema at para malaman din kung mas malaki ba ang advantage ng paggamit nito kumpara sa traditional na certificates. Totoo din naman yung sinabi niya na perfect ito pag may kalamidad kasi nga kahit wala na yung papel at least alam mo na may maipapakita ka pa kapag nag apply ka ng trabaho or sa school. Alam naman natin sa panahon ngayon na puro kalamidad yung kinakaharap ng bansa hanggang ngayon kaya sa tingin ko magkakaroon ito ng malaking impact sa atin kasi mas tatangkilikin yung ganito ng bagay. Digital kasi siya kaya masasabi mong less hassle at convenient, maraming magkakainterest dito na mga kumpanya or schools kasi syempre mas makakatipid sila.
380  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have there been any money laundering schemes that used cryptocurrency? on: December 04, 2019, 05:16:39 AM
It's possible especially with the nature of cryptocurrency like bitcoin. We don't know who, and how many uses crypto for money laundering. But anything can be possible for money. That's what greedy people do. Politicians, wealthy people, they can find ways on how to launder money without getting caught. That's why some governments don't really trust crypto because illegal and criminal activities can be done by the use of cryptocurrency.
Indeed, nothing is impossible when it comes to money even politicians will take advantage of crypto if they wanted to since they have some power. They will do it just to the benefits they wanted and you can't easily recognize it because government officials are very wise, they have different way of thinking and levels of perception. Some of them may think that crypto has a great potential in their country and some of them thinks that it can be beneficial to them and not in their country. We can't just change the fact that there are some politicians who are being selfish, they are thinking about themselves. Though there are still some good politicians who thinks about how crypto can be beneficial to their people as well on their country. It's kind of sad to see that there are people who keeps on using crypto in illegal activities which makes people hesitate to invest or not because they are afraid to risk, knowing that crypto's reputation is ruined by many people.
