381  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's the most complicated thing about Bitcoin? on: December 04, 2019, 04:20:14 AM
The most complicated thing about bitcoin is understanding its concept, how does it work, what are his pros and cons.

For starters you need to know how you can use bitcoin to take profit or make it worth for your transactions from fiat to virtual currency.
You need to make alot of research before going more deep into this new world.

Are there scams? Are there issues? Can my money be lost? How much time to make a transaction?
Every question has to be answered as each one of them is complicated to be answered without knowing the base of bitcoin functionality.
Indeed, it makes you wonder a lot of things particularly if it's worth the risk or not because most of people these days still thinks that bitcoin is a scam and I can't blame them for thinking that way because there are people who takes advantage of bitcoin and use it in illegal activities. They have ruined the reputation of bitcoin and that is why some of them are hesitating whether to take the risk or not. It's difficult for a newbie knowing that you have to learn a lot of things to cope up with problems and to earn some profit, sometimes you will wonder why do you keep on pushing yourself into something you lack of knowledge about. It's complicated but it is absolutely worth it because of the opportunities and benefits that you can get from bitcoin, you just need to be patient and you should always open your mind for knowledge because it can help you in the future particularly in making decisions.

The reason I am still on crypto is that there are still opportunities to make a profit, and also this is still initially the crypto market will still continue to evolve, precisely in market conditions like this when it is appropriate to enter.

I also think the same way because I know that regardless of what is currently happening, I know that crypto is still capable on giving us opportunities and we just need to be patient. Also, it changes the life of us into a better one no doubt why some of us choose to stay despite of losing some money because of some fraud. I'll keep on believing because crypto has never failed to give us the benefits that we deserve and it is worth the risk. It is also the reason why up until now i'm patiently waiting because I know that some opportunities lies at the end and it depends on you if you are willing to wait just to grab it.

Your money, your obligation to take care. There's a lots of different opinions but in the end it should be your own understanding that will be followed.
Your knowledge in reading the situations is the one that will fits you to sell or to continue holding your assets. Every position will be in your hands,
how the outcome will take will relied to how you manifested your skills to this market.
Indeed, because you are the only one who's allowed to make choices on your money and if your actions and decisions doesn't turn out good then accept it. Learn from your lesson and move on so you can avoid doing the same mistake, if it turns out great then that's amazing because you know that you have applied what you have learn. Sometimes we don't have other people's thoughts because sometimes they are just making things so complicated and we are avoiding it particularly when you are about to do an action, it can either lead into positive or negative outcomes. It is true that it can have a huge impact on you and on your funds but choose what's the best for you, don't take risk without thinking the result of it and if you messed up then suffer the consequences.

Social engineering is an innovative way hackers are able to take advantage of you. Here’s what you need to know in order to protect your personal data.

https://selfkey.org/social-engineering-hacks-101/

Social engineering plays off of your emotions, so it can be difficult to stop. Have you ever been a victim of one?

The most important thing about this is personal consciousness. It's not just about social media. There is a great degree of information pollution on the Internet. You can find the right information on many topics, but there is wrong information that can make you mistake.

Of course, this does not mean that we will not use the Internet and social media. But I always have to be skeptical. If we need to know about the subject we have no knowledge of 2-3 different sources should reach the conclusion.
Indeed particularly in this world in which everything is speculative, one single mistake and your funds will be gone. Sometimes we are the problem because we keep on doing some actions and decisions without even thinking about the result of it and that is the reason why some of us ended up getting hacked or scammed. I have experienced it multiple times and I don't want to do the same mistakes that is why i'm being more attentive and cautious because I know that they will always find a way to get the benefits they wanted from us. Don't trust anyone's message with links because you don't know their true intentions and it's better if you do some researching before clicking it to make sure that the site is legit and safe.

Magbabayad naman talaga kahit kaunti lang mga participant basta yung bounty na sinalihan talaga natin ay trusted siya. Mayb iba kasi hanggang sa salita nalang pero pagdating sa huli bigla nalang mag exit scam. Kaya pag butihin talaga natin makahanap ng mga magagandang bounty campaign may makikita rin tayo kapag matyaga lang talaga tayo.
Totoo yan, ang mahirap lang din kasi sa marami sa atin ay masyado tayong naniniwala agad sa mga salita nila ni hindi muna natin sinigurado kaya kadalasan puro pagsisisi nalang yung napapala natin. Madami akong nasayang na oras at effort dahil sa pagsali sa bounty campaign, may mga times na parang ayoko na ulitin kasi wala naman akong napapala pero naisip ko na minsan kasalanan ko din kasi masyado akong nagpadala sa mga salita nila. Kahit naman sabihin natin na beneficial yung mga bounty campaigns hindi pa rin naman maiiwasan na madami sa kanila yung nangiiscam at doon tayo dapat maging alerto, alam ko din na madami na sa atin ang nabiktima nun kaya hindi din nakakapagtaka kung bakit marami sa inyo yung hini na interesado. Sa akin naman naiintindihan ko na hindi maiiwasan yung mapagsamantalang mga tao lalo na pagdating sa ganyang bagay kaya dapat talaga maging maingat at matiyaga tayo, 'wag din natin hayaan na maging hadlang ito para kumita tayo.
386  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Psychological Mistake of the Beginners Traders on: December 02, 2019, 12:10:24 PM
I know that when I began trading Bitcoin, I made lots of mistakes.  I would fomo buy at a high price and the panic sell when it dropped. It’s easy to fall into that mindset.
The main reason behind this behavior is lack of knowledge. A bitcoin trader needs to hold understanding of two subjects; his asset which is bitcoin and his profession which is trading. Listening to others can be informative but following them in order to make decisions is not a wise act. After knowledge, perseverance and courage are essential traits to gain. In the beginning, a demo account must be used too.
Indeed, knowledge is the powerful thing that can help and guide us to overcome the possible challenges that we can encounter along the way. Some traders doesn't take it too seriously because they think that they can easily handle it but little did they know that trading is speculative? it takes a lot of effort and time to earn profit and it depends on how you manage your trade. They tend to make decision without even thinking about the result of it because it making decision you have to consider a lot of things which they usually don't that's why they end up feeling remorse about it.  Also, you should always remember to learn from your mistake because it can help you to avoid doing the same mistake and it will guide you too.
387  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Tips for newbies to trading on: December 02, 2019, 09:34:23 AM
The points you give here are very clear and I think this can be understood by the novice traders here.
Winning requires skills to be a reliable trader and must be careful, patient, don't panic, that's the main key in my opinion.
I am sure every novice trader will feel the complexity in the first trader.

It is very important not to panic as to avoid unnecessary mistakes in trading because in trading one mistake can either make or break a trader that is why it is very important that you are very careful when you trade. You also have to analyze all the possibilities to make sure you’ll come up with the best strategy there is.
beautiful sentiment, traders these days tend to make bad decision when they panic and the sad part is that they can't even control themselves. You should always make some time to prepare yourself for unexpected things particularly when it comes to trading since it's indeed speculative, if you don't want to end up feeling remorse abut your actions and decisions then don't panic because it will can never lead into positive outcomes. You should always remember that you should just make decision when you are in a proper mindset because you have to consider a lot of things or else your funds will be wasted for nothing. If you wanted to be successful in trading then apply your knowledge because it's the only guide who can help you to achieve your objectives.
388  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading on: December 02, 2019, 07:26:21 AM
I am new here. So I need some help from veteran traders could you please tell me how could I trade here safely Huh
Knowledge is power in trading because you can apply what you have learn to overcome problems and to be successful, trading isn't easy and it will never be easy but as long as you have enough knowledge then you can make wise decision for yourself. Apply your knowledge and stick with your main objective. You have to understand the things that you need to consider before making actions to avoid feeling remorse about it. Always do some research and risk what you can afford to lose because you can't always expect that your trading will turn out great, there will be some downfalls. You should also know when to buy, hold and sell because trading is speculative, also be patient and attentive.
389  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Developer arrested in US for teaching North Korea how to launder money on: December 02, 2019, 06:05:16 AM
Ethereum research scientist Virgil Griffith allegedly went all the way to Pyongyang to teach North Korean scientist and hackers how to launder and receive money that they earn by ransoming and hacking around the world. He taught them how to effectively use Ethereum without being found.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/u-authorities-arrest-ethereum-research-200109230.html
Okay.... That's new. Thank god he got caught, and serves him right. I mean like, why did he even teach that country such ways of using ethereum and might be cryptocurrency in general in a bad way without being found? And now he has to pay for what he did. Being the enemy of U.S authorities is no joke. He might even carries a maximum 20-year prison sentence. He reaps what he sows. Hopefully there won't be any similar person like him anymore. A guy like him is one of the reason that makes cryptocurrency in general is bad in the eyes of the world.
Indeed, he have to suffer the consequences of his actions and learn from it because people these days are always looking forward to take advantage of cryptocurrency to get the benefits they wanted but little did they know that they are just putting themselves into a difficult situation. I just hope people like him will realized their mistakes and avoid doing it again because it will never turn out great, they will always end up feeling remorse about their actions. It's true that it is one of the reason why people have some trust issues when it comes to a cryptocurrency because of people who uses it on illegal things which ruins the reputation of cryptocurrency.
390  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who has entered a shop (non-BTC accepting) and asked if they will accept Crypto? on: December 02, 2019, 05:18:51 AM
Maybe it depends on the location, as I have tried asking people here in Urban areas and there were few of them who knows Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, but they thought it was a big scam, so I just told them to do their research about it, and to keep in touch with me if they do have questions, and for those who are in Rural areas, they don't have any idea at all what really it is.
Actually I have also tried it and it doesn't went well because they said that it is quite impossible since they don't have enough knowledge about it, they are not even familiar with it and it's kind of weird to see that they don't know that there is a digital currency that existed. I've told them hat there will be some advantages on using it and it can be beneficial to them and to their business, I just hope they will realized it's capabilities because it can help them too but i'm not forcing them I just share my own experience and give them short explanation because I also know that it will also be difficult for them since they don't have an idea about how a cryptocurrency works.
391  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: French High School Students Will Learn About Bitcoin And Crypto on: December 01, 2019, 09:41:31 AM
If bitcoin and cryptocurrency will play a big role in our economy in the future, it is a good step for them that they started adding it to their curriculum. I think it is good to start learning about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology at a very young age because there are a lot of opportunities in crypto.
Indeed, it will open their minds about cryptocurrency at an early age which can have a huge impact on their future because they have finally an idea about how a digital currency works and it's specific purpose. It's a great way to help them understand that the world isn't only focusing on fiat because there is a digital currency that existed, it can make them realize that there is a bright future ahead of them because of the capabilities and potentialities of cryptocurrency. It can be beneficial to them and to their country, good to see that they are finally adopting cryptocurrency.
392  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Maybe satoshi is dead on: December 01, 2019, 08:13:40 AM
Satoshi Nakamoto's identity is truly mysterious and no one knows his whereabouts and no one accurately reveals his identity which raises the question whether Satoshi Nakamoto is still alive or dead and I cannot answer it.
and he is a great person and very genius has created bitcoin that can help everyone.
Nobody can identify the answer to this question because we don't even know the person behind that pseudonym, let's just accept the fact that we are not capable on finding out his real identity. Maybe he did it for some unknown reason where he can protect himself from any issues and we should just respect his decision because we have no other choice but to understand his situations. Let's just be grateful for what he did because he helped us on changing our lives into something better.
393  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investors are getting smarter but why not developers???? on: December 01, 2019, 06:46:23 AM
Investors learn from their previous experienced. As we know many fake project that make investors loss their money , from this accident i am sure they will take important lesson , so in future they will able to identify which is bad project and qualified project.   Meanwhile developer team has no more idea to developt , too many shit projects and duplicaton here.  And if they create same concept investors will not support it.
Indeed, they finally learn from their mistakes and use it as a guide to avoid doing the same mistake. It makes them realized a lot of things that makes them stronger and wiser particularly on making decision on which project to invest because it's clear that there are projects these days that was made to deceive us to get the benefits they wanted. Investors should be more attentive because we don't want to waste our funds for nothing. If it's better to have some research then do it because it can help you determine the best project that is worth it and profitable.
394  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is this a scam attempt? Or Nothing to panic? on: December 01, 2019, 06:07:01 AM
I have been saying it, most of the hacks we have been experiencing aren't actually outside hack but inside job and been disguise as exchanged been hacked. This new isn't new and won't be the last we'll be hearing such news of CEO running away with traders fund but they only thing you can do is to avoid been a victim by not storing your coins on exchange. Exchange should only be used foe trading and not as wallets. It's a purely a scam attempt.
Well said, sometimes they are taking advantage on the trust that was given to them to get the benefits they wanted. They keep on hiding the real story to the point that it's unrecognizable and that is the reason why it is difficult to trust those issues because you can't easily say if it's true or not unless they have finally said it. We have to be more careful these days when it comes to exchanges, we have to be more cautious because you don't want your funds to be wasted for nothing. It's sad to see that some people's time and effort to earn those money was gone that's why we have to be wise on choosing an exchange.
395  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Friends of Satoshi on: December 01, 2019, 05:15:51 AM
The think of the mystery is everyone just keeps focusing on Satoshi and who that might be.
No one is really searching for people who may have known that person or persons.

There are several people out there. Who do know who Satoshi is and did talk to him at least. Why are we not focusing on those people? the friends?
If that's what you think then why don't you conduct your own research to find out the person behind that pseudonym? then tell us what you have find out after researching so we can have an idea about his real identity. If you are curious about Satoshi then explore things on your own, also does it really matter? I mean why don't you guys accept the fact that he doesn't want peoples attention. It's much better if we just respect his decision because I know there is a powerful reason behind it.
396  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Was Hal Finney the real Satoshi? on: November 30, 2019, 12:34:30 PM
OMG! so can't you guys ask any question other than the identity of Satoshi? Is this going to bring any bread on your table? There is so much to learn about cryptocurrency, blockchain technology and the whole digital world which senior forum members are willing to help explain to you. But no, you guys choose to ask that one question which has been asked over a hundred times in here.

All questions regarding the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto are yawned at!
Point well made, I understand your concern that its kinda annoying but they are still pretty curious regarding it. OP, it's better if you should do your own research because in that way you can understand things easily and learn a lot of things. Just do some exploration to answer your own questions because you can't always expect people to answer the same question for multiple times. Hal Finney isn't Satoshi, if that's him why would he choose to hide himself all those years? it means no one knows the person behind that pseudonym and we should just accept it.
397  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: This is big news for Germany Bitcoiners out there! on: November 30, 2019, 10:26:34 AM
This would be a game-changer for the world, maybe more and more people would start learning about Bitcoin and realize that it is the future. It's not scams or anything, and sooner or later, every bank will follow in the footsteps. I read also that it's still limited but allowing it is a step towards pure adoption.

For anyone interested in other articles check the link below.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/germany-new-proposed-law-would-legalize-banks-holding-bitcoin
Indeed, it's possible that it might influence the decision of other countries regarding on legalizing bitcoin, maybe someday the government from other countries will recognize that bitcoin can be beneficial for their country and to their people. It has great capabilities particularly on giving us opportunities, it is great to see that the adoption is getting better day by day and it's improving. There are possible things that may happen in the future and I just hope that things will get better like how people think about bitcoin, this just proves that bitcoin isn't bad as they think it is. It is more than that and it's capable on giving us a better life.
398  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It is impossible to proof that somebody is Satoshi. on: November 30, 2019, 07:55:42 AM
of course, it is, how could you find a person who is the real satoshi, I don't think there is no way to discover the real one, it's not possible at all, My query is that if someone claims that he is the one and how could you refuse himself, I think it's not an important thing we are looking for, For me, we should learn what he created and we have to keep it up what he did for us, we have to maintain this forum free from scammers and fake project so that people will get interested in this system, except the mass adoption, this cryptocurrency platform will not sustain for a long time, so make this forum comfortable and reliable for everyone, hopefully, The real Satoshi will uncover himself in the future.
Indeed, we should just accept the fact that Satoshi don't want to reveal himself for unknown reason and we must respect it. Also, we don't have to believe those people who claim themselves as him because they will never be, how can Satoshi reveal himself after all those years without giving enough reasons? if they can't even give a single evidence then don't let yourself be a fan of them because they are just trying to take advantage of Satoshi and you. They just want the attention and popularity and because of that they are getting the benefits that they don't actually deserve, let's just respect his decision and be grateful for what he did and focus on more important things.
399  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: French National TV Starts Advertising Bitcoin on: November 30, 2019, 06:41:05 AM
This is what I'm looking for. A bitcoin-related advertisement on national tv. I see it as the best way of promoting bitcoin since a lot of people across a country is watching tv, and it will make it easier to spread awareness about bitcoin. I would definitely love to see a bitcoin advertisement here in my country. The Philippines is a crypto-friendly country as well, so it would attract other local people. Unlike socmed promotions, people would easily trust ads on tv compared on the internet since there's a lot of fake news and info spreading there. While on tv, it's most likely to be trusted and approved products.
Indeed, actually there are some stores in the Philippines that accepts bitcoin as a payment for their product and service. The adoption is improving despite of some people doubting it because they thought it was a scam, well if that finally happens of course they will realize that they are wrong for judging bitcoin. It's pretty accurate that they tend to believe what they have seen in TV because they think that it won't be advertise if it's not legit right? so I guess it can also help our fellow Filipinos to adopt and accept bitcoin, it can also give them some idea that a digital currency existed and it can be used in our country. Great to see that some countries are looking for some ways to make their people  realize about a cryptocurrency, it can make them more aware about bitcoin and hopefully accepts it and adopts it too.

Ano po masasabi nyo sa wallet na ito, hindi sya app pero nasa browser. nagkakaroon kasi minsasn ng problema sa Coins.PH tulad na pag lock nila ng wallet mo.
https://www.rebit.ph/ ito yung sinabi sakin ng kaibigan ko. ano tingin nyo mga master? meron na ba gumagamit sa inyo nito?
Hindi siya wallet kundi isang exchange. Matagal na yan at legit na company ang may hawak niyan ay SCI, Satoshi Citadel Industries. Ang co-owner niyan ay si Miguel Cuneta. Hindi ko pa siya nagamit pero kung sakaling magkaroon ng problema kay coins.ph isa na yan sa option ko.
Guys hindi bago ang rebit, matagal na po yan. Tignan niyo website ng company nila pati na rin ibang exchange na mina-manage nila.
(https://sci.ph/)

Bro, hindi sila yung may scam accusation. Kapag binasa mo yung article, nagbibigay sila ng warning na ginagamit yung company name nila ng mga scammer.
Ibig sabihin binibigyan lang nila ng idea yung mga customers nila na may mga taong tinetake advantage yung company name nila para makapangloko, tinutulungan nilang mas maging aware ang mga ito para hindi magkaroon ng mas malaki pang problema. Nakakatakot na talaga sa panahon ngayon kasi hindi mo alam kung totoong part ba nung mismong comapny yung taong nagmemessage sa'yo kaya dapat mas maging attentive tayo pagdating sa mga ganitong bagay, 'wag basta bastang maniniwala o magtitiwala at ugaliing magresearch muna bago gumawa ng mga desisyon kasi nga hindi mo alam yung totoo nilang intensyon.
