The bad coins have no future, but there is a future in some of the underdogs which may be more exciting than the current mainstream coins.

Dangers of a HODL’er:
by

on 14/10/2018, 04:39:31 UTC
1. Lethargy during a sideways market
2. Disregarding your strategy
3. Chasing somebody else’s dream
4. Believing somebody else’s FUD
5. Using money that you shouldn’t be
6. Failing to properly do a self risk analysis before investing



If you can cope with these dangers then this type of investment will do well for you. This is a hands-off, long term method of investing. DYOR, find good coins with bright futures, buy and hold. Don’t worry about the daily percentages

Re: Which do you prefer, bank or crypto?

Initially when the bitcoin technology was introduced many people condemn it mostly the financial institutions e.g Banks. But right now the success possed by this bitcoin and the blockchain technology is now a nightmare for the banks because over the last 3years the use of bitcoin in the international market has increased especially in the year 2017 where it has skyrocket and now becoming a major currency in trading.so i choose crypto over bank.

Banks will have to either join or die in this new digital economy. The ways of the world are changing right before our eyes and it's exhilarating!

I love this meme because I bought my first Bitcoins in the early part of 2013. It was in a  franchise coffee shop from a guy who mined them in his home, on a GPU mining rig.

Re: I am sure Bitcoin Will go $50,000 End of this year because of ETF!

It certainly is possible if the ETF gets approved in August. I think people have witnessed a bear market for so long that many forget just how quickly BTC can run in the opposite direction as well. If we do start to genuinely go up again, the breach of 10k will get mass coverage, while a breach of 20k will see a drastic climb up, as breaking the ATH would likely cause intense FOMO with everyone that sold during the bear market.

Re: Can ETH break its highest record again

I believe ETH will press $600 very soon, and  I would be very surprised if ETH didnt reach $1,000 - 1,200, But  I dont think ETH will take the lead as #1, but only because BTC will keep on soaring through 2018 as well.

Re: Ethereum is ICO king, Do you agree?
by
Catswold
on 12/10/2018, 03:20:00 UTC
Particularly with the explosion of ERC20 projects in 2017 (ERC20 standard is basically a clonable crypto-asset that makes it simple to raise funds on the Ethereum blockchain). The SEC’s move became all the more likely in light of Bitcoin.com’s recent study showing 46% of ICO projects in 2017 have already failed. It appears ERC20 tokens made it so easy for projects to begin raising funds without any consideration for their legal needs — many forwent any true debate around their technical needs as well.

Re: How long will this bear market continue?

Bear market dose not matter just keep holding,Those who really benefit from cryptocurrency are those who get in for long term. on the first of January 2016, those who had bitcoins knew the value then was around $400 and by January 2017 1 BITCOIN was $1000, which is over 100% gain. looking at this, selling would be the best option , but holders won .

Also note that cryptocurrencies are very volatile, its very possible to make 1 million dollars from $100 or $10 in 24 hours and also VERY easy lose that 1 million dollars in less than a minute, so invest into cryuptocurrency with money you can afford to lose and make proper research before buying into a any cryptocurrency and don't sell off too easily.

Re: Are old coins no more profitable
by
Catswold
on 07/10/2018, 10:17:54 UTC
I have come across so many different digital currencies that are no longer profitable for miners who are hunting opportunities. What would we think of coins that show up in the scene and never reach a real valuable exchange rate against Bitcoin or USD? It is known that those coins as any traded goods are subject to the law of offer/demand and the volume of the trades (market capital), the more the users and adopters of the coin the more it has value (increase in its value against USD or BTC).

why only be excited about one cryptocurrency graph when you can be excited about 5 or maybe even 20 similarly if not more thrilling graphs.We've all heard the stories of someone buying a coin for .50 cents and after a month of holding it it's valuation going up to 5 dollars multiplying the person's investment times ten.

ETH is still the bulk of my portfolio, around 40% right now. I will sell some at some point; the only ETH I have ever sold allowed me to buy into an ICO.i will keep holding.

Re: I have 250 ETH, Hold or SELL?
by
Catswold
on 06/10/2018, 14:44:17 UTC
 I don't hold any Ethereum, and they will no doubt have to work out issues that they are having with these ICOs , but I don't think that a drop in price of a cryptocurrency indicates that anything is wrong with the technology behind a coin or that it is gonna fail. Perhaps in the short term everything will fall (as it is), but at the end of the day, the best underlying blockchain technology will rise to the top, and if you believe that Ethereum will fix the issues that come with being a giant in the industry, than HODL. I look at coins that are severely undervalued based on their technology, and that tells me that cryptocurrency prices are MOSTLY based around hype at this point. Time will separate the best from the mediocre, and I do believe Ethereum to be one of the best.

ANALYZE TRENDS AND CHARTS If you are trying to day trade, you will have to learn how to time it out. You need to have extreme discipline as well. It's very easy to be excited about a coin, thinking it will keep rising. If a coin has dipped, that is typically the time to buy in.
Tell yourself you will sell at X%, and stay true to that. Remember my  purchase I made that gave me 10x return? Well, I didn't cash out at that point and kept thinking it would rise -- a common beginner's mistake. I didn't do my research to even have a valid reason to keep holding and I also didn't realize how astronomical that return was. I didn't understand the discipline in investing at the time, but that was definitely a lesson learned. I do believe in holding for a few years if you are not big on day trading, even if you can make profits from swing trading. There are absolute exceptions, especially when you are willing to take a risk because you just fully believe in a coin's future. Sometimes it's better to keep your hands off for a long time because if you don't know what you are doing then you could lose a lot of money.

i think Now even a student with a high level of professional skills will be able to find a good job. Employers, when confirming the job of an applicant, assess the level of his/her competencies, which allows other employers to evaluate performers.

Learning to day trade Crypto can still turn a tidy profit if one follows trends and becomes well versed in the specifics of each coin. So, go out, be patient and diligent, and make money! I've been trading cryptocurrencies for 2 years now and I can say that over $200 billion dollars was made worldwide and has made millions of traders rich. I trade LTC, BTC, ETH, BCH, BCC etc.

Re: Is investing on ICOs still profitable?
by
Catswold
on 27/09/2018, 17:36:20 UTC
Most of the time i buy them at exchanges. When new cryptocurrencies hit the exchanges they always tank first. I personally have used this system with over a dozen currencies and notice a hockey stick pattern. The currency drops upon release and bottoms out. At this point you simply buy up some cryptos and hold until dumping. I personally grab up some cryptos and dump when I hit a 20% profit. I sometimes hold the currencies for a longer period and sell them for an even higher profit. Remember trading cryptos is a game of entries and exits. The trick is to get in early and sell at a profit.

Re: Cryptocurrencies will make you rich overnight?

i think no. There is no such thing as a safe investment other than, perhaps Treasuries and even those are unsafe if the US Government collapses. Property values tanked from the peak in 2006 very quickly. Those who bought at that time, might still be under water.Cryptos are all about the price bought in at and the knowledge of one who is investing. Is there the risk of loss? Absolutely just like any investment. Kodak and Blockbuster ended up bankrupt. At one time, those were Wall Street darlings.There is a lot of junk out there in crypto just like in the OTC stock world. One needs to be smart, do research, and only play with money he/she can afford to lose. Do not put the mortgage or rent check into crypto (or any other investment). Yet people still do that at times.
