The elaborate explanation regarding the strategy of bitcoin is duely appreciated and can help many. But I follow simple strategy, buy bitcoin when the market price is low and hold it no matter what for a while and when the price rises that allows me to make good profit and sell or trade it.

Great topic for the new comers and also a brief history lesson for all of us in the community. The future seems to great for bitcoin as it seems to becoming stable.

There is no point in lying in this group. People can easily see the statistics and realtime value in google or other search engines. There are innumerable references to cross reference the claims.

This year's end is near and it is speculated that a price soar is imminent. It may not be a bull run but we can expect a significant price rise.

I think it is perfectly safe for managing multiple wallets from one PC given if the PC is properly protected. Other than the privacy fact it is quiet safe.

Dan Morehead's comment regarding the topic is very intriguing. He made some points regarding why bitcoin's etf won't be approved like, bitcoin needs much more investor and exposure. By the case he made with copper it looks like bitcoin's etf approval is far awat but still let us stay optimistic.

There are little to no difference between the two. Both are used for promotional purposes and to attract more investors by free distribution of coins. Different ICOs tries to use use them in different context.

Hundreds of altcoins were introduced in 2018. Many failed and many were successful in their endeavours. Looking forward to the upcoming years.

This was done for capitalism to work. We shouldn't go for a socialism vs capitalism debate. Further more we should discuss about how cryptos could change these fraudulent behaviours.

Blockchain technology is the only platform or in this case an "institution" that is in a way responsible for for the protection of the circulation of Bitcoin. This has always been the case.

Blockchain has shown enough promises to state that it has come to stay. The more firms and companies start accepting it the more they are participating in this revolution. This will bring nothing but good for the technology.

You need to understand that they are doing a lot of work with a pretty small team. Just wait a bit, they will surely get you back.

Well, your arguments are concise and spot on. It's absolutely true that the things people complain about bitcoin and other altcoins are almost exactly found in fiat system, sometimes even more. This is indeed a double standard criticizing cryptocurrencies alone.

For something to have value it needs to be backed up by something physical or valuable. The value increases or decreases according to the shortage or availability of it in the market. Tether expected to keep its value stable but naturally failed as a result of historical development.

Ethereum is the first and still the top coin among all the other altcoins. I expect it to exist in long terms and become mainstream like FIAT.

The fact that an exchange will be targeted by hackers for online heist is hypothetically sound, just like 51% attack is. But you know, it's not worth it. And, if an assumption is made on the basis that an exchange is similiar to a traditional fiat bank, then, for business that exchange will have to come up with state of the art cyber security, or perhaps, in this context, crypto security which is alreday implemented in major coins, thanks to block chain. This article, in a nutshell, is a total time waste read.

In this regard FIAT money is worth zero too. We gave value to paper money for trading. In a parallel universe that would sound absurd too.

It is better to invest in coins if the risk factor of investing in ICOs are taken into account. It is advised to invest in bitcoin and holding it until the price increases.

Only a few countries took a strong stance towards the controlled outcome of bitcoin. Some of them are actually planning to launch their version of bitcoin at this moment. Bitcoin is inherently hard to trace for its nature. It's a nightmare for any goverment. What, as a bitcoin community, we truly want is, total accpetance all over the world. Then, no one remains agitated.

Fear of failing is one of the reason most business do not succeed. Patience is the key. There is no point in dumping the coin just to see its increased price after the dump.
