Well to be honest for somone who believes in bitcoin and hoping it will become great your not helping it in doing so with this tread. You could better be promoting it in a good way and let people see all benefits it brings to the world rather then a orade to the end of bitcoin. Cheer up bitcoin isnt death and wont die its here to stay!

Re: How can we make people accept bitcoins as a currency?

In my opinion we need more possibilities to use bitcoin as a currency. For now we can mostly just to invest in or trade and a couple of points to utilize bitcoin as a currency. If we get more point of sale where we can use bitcoin it will become more and more accepted as a global currency.

Re: Is cryptocurrency so difficult to understand

To be honest it was not that hard for me to understand but i find it pretty hard to explain it to people that have no affinety with these kind of things. I tried to explain some of my older colleagues what cryptocurrency is and how to invest in this but i find my self trying to explain it way to difficult. I think for someone new to crytocurrency a good old evening of google will help allot, but you allready need some technic background or affinity in my opinion.

Re: Who controls the crypto market?

In my opinion it is controlled by the media. Everything that is published has an effect on cryptocurrency. The good and the bad news. Appart from that there are some big investors that influence the price allot for their own profit ofcource. The only thing that can be done to break this trend is for new investors (common people) to join in so cryptocurrency will be more and more adopted in the world.

Re: DO PEOPLE STILL HAVE CONFIDENCE IN BITCOIN?

I cant talk for the masses but i do still believe in bitcoin. Everything around cryptocurrency and blockchain is and will be the future. It just need to lose the bad news around it and get more widely adopted before the world will accept it. I dont worry about the price right now it will stabalize its self when its more broadly adopted.

Re: Be careful with fake exchanges

Yeah happend to me once as well. Just make sure you dont use google to search for words connected to the name of the exchange. But rather use links provided in the bitcointalk section of a coin or via discord/telegram. If your using an exchange often just make a bookmark of the site and use that. Be carefull all!

Re: Is the world ready for cryptocurrency?

All the necesary tech is ready for the big adoption of bitcoin, its just that the world isnt ready to adopt bitcoin for the masses yet. When it becomes easy to pay for everyday goods with bitcoin, like doing groceries or buy a television in the electronics store, we can see some big adoption for the masses. Until that day it will only be "currency to invest in", in my opinion.

Re: My small advice about crypto market

Well lets hope this cycle your talking about is going upwards for a change. I have strong believe it will but it has been a while now. At the moment this feels more like a downward spiral with a spontanious small peak. Lets go back to the bull market from last year please!!

Re: Bitcoin and altcoin: Who will take control of the market?
by
Gankstard
on 30/08/2018, 19:24:28 UTC
Bitcoin already controls the market and will continue to controle this market for a while. Even though some new altcoins have far better ideas and greater tech bitcoin has the popularity. As long as bitcoin is the only way to purchase new altcoins these altcoins will never take control. For that to happen there need to be more direct altcoin to fiat possibilities.

Re: Do you keep your coins physically secure?

I personally make backups of all my wallets on multiple USB devices. To be honest i think this is enough. Just need to make sure your passwords are secure enough to protect yourself from an easy bruteforce attack in case your laptop is stolen or comprimised. Aside from that make sure you always run a good antivirus and stay away from phishy websites and your good.

Re: Is Bitcoin a Digital Gold??
by

on 27/08/2018, 19:15:19 UTC
To be honest one can say bitcoin is the digital gold. Its just a "little bit" more volatile then gold. Its the way you look at it. If you store it for a long time it kinda acts the same as if you store cash for gold, but in this cryptomarket its unscertain how much of your investment will come back to you. you can end up with the same amount or a lot less (or more ofc Smiley)

Re: Why I don't Support KYC in cryptocurrency as it is
by
Gankstard
on 21/08/2018, 22:12:44 UTC
To be honest i dont trust most of the exchanges that have mandatory KYC. I think all of us must be aware at all the bad things these exchanges can do with your documents. Identity theft is one of the worst things that can happen to people. Just stick with the well known exchanges and avoid new shady ones that require KYC.

Re: I bought bitcoin at $20k last year

Painfull for those who invested in december. Normally i would say never regret the choises you make, but this must feel very painfull. But i still have a feeling this market wil turn around again. In the beginning we thought it wouldnt even hit 1000 dollar. So everything is possible in crypto.

I feel bad about all these excellent coins dropping day after day. Started buying Shield way back at $0.006 - in disbelief how all the tech leadership men and women have such hesitation to ever publicly support projects. What ever became of Marc Andreesen? Is he still on sabbatical year after year? I think they're just lazy anymore.

Marc Andreesen has done a lot though he doesn't really *have* to work anymore. But crypto is a very new market a lot of people don't really understand what brings value which is of course a gigantic problem.




Half of people in crypto is for money in general, they don't need to understand what makes coin better or known, all they care is more and faster.
I think XSV is at bottom now, so bought almost 300k Wink
Good to hear XSH could use some more love from peiple like you. At the end i think everyone is in it for the win. Some people just wanna make a quick buck while others want big returns on the long term. But i think this team is doing everything to proof them selfs to be most capable for this coin to grow into something big in the long term. Keep up the great work boys!!

Re: WHAT HAPPENS WHEN NO ONE SELLS BUT HODL?
by
Gankstard
on 09/08/2018, 21:56:38 UTC
if no one sells and holds than I do believe the weak hands would be removed and such dumps like 10-20% overnight would be harder to happen and the whales would need much more liquidity to do that.
Overall its good to hodl but if every one does that there would be no market and coins would be worthless. So i think we need to be glad there are people that sell. Apart from that its good people sell (cheap) so there is more money to make for the smart investors (hodlers). Wink

I think that the project will develop well in the near future.
Since this project has an excellent team that always offers creative ideas and ideas so that this project gradually increases the number of potential investors
Agreed. I think this development team has delivered everything they have promised so far and even more with the upgrade to the bitcoin core 0.16. They have won my believe and i think they will win the believe of potential new investors in the future as well. Keep the great work going guys!!

Dev is it planned to add to large exchanges like HitBtc Bittrex Exmo?
I really liked your coin but the exchanges on which it is added do not inspire confidence Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes. Thanks
You guys seem to forget this coin doesnt have any premine or presale like those shit ICO's. Because of this there is no big fund for paying those expensive exchanges. The dev is working his ass off to develop everything thats is promised in the roadmap to get this coin to its full potential so the big exchanges will recognize the real value of this coin. Please stop asking to get this coin on these big unafordable exchanges and instead help with spreading the news about shield so it gets the attention it deserves.

Shield was able to reach high market capitalization without a big exchange. I remember it was trading $1M per day in StocksExchange. If the devs were able to sell some during the peak, they would have enough funds to for development and listing in bigger exchanges.

Please read before commenting. How do you expect the developers to sell any coin if there is no premine? We cant expect this team to pay those ridiculous prices out of their own pocket. Just keep calm and let the team finish this product while the community can help spread the news.

Re: What factors scare others from investing into bitcoin?
by
Gankstard
on 01/08/2018, 16:38:10 UTC
What scared me in the beginning was its high price in combination to volatility. New joiners are looking to make a quick buck and dont want to invest allot. Other part is the bad news in the media. The only thing displayed in the media is news about hacks and wrong use of bitcoins. Its never about the good thing cryptocurrencies will bring to the future.
