Re: Trading sites?

I had a gemini account, but changed phone numbers and now cant complete 2 factor authentification. so I signed up with kraken. but certain things I dont like about it.

So, what are my next options? preferably, lower fees, allow ach transfers, and they allow trading of Dogecoin and BTT and other smaller cryptocurrencies.

SHORT VERIFICATION TIME IS NECESSARY because i feel like after this even out after this current trough, which could be just a day or a few, now would be the best time to invest.


has to be available in USA too.

Kraken UI is archaic but it's one of the best exchanges around.

A valid option for you is Coinbase Pro - they are open for U.S. citizens, but the trading pairs are separated by GEO.
Check what trading pairs are available for the U.S. and decide: https://help.coinbase.com/en/pro/trading-and-funding/cryptocurrency-trading-pairs/locations-and-trading-pairs

Re: what do you think about the few days deep

on 24/02/2021, 22:16:10 UTC
I noticed the recent deep generally affected most of the ALT coin within 48 hrs turning Red. i bought EOS at $5.2 but i was panic to sell reason because most of my assets was greatly at loose and i couldn't bear the pain so i have to sell off most them to be able to secure them, not too long the market changes direction again and already i have lost most of my investment.

Do we expect another deep soon?
what is your intake, please be free to drop your comments.

I also managed to match some 'market orders' that took a deep dip, and I'm happy.

I don't expect any big dip soon without any notable bad news. This one was expected as Bitcoin can't go only in one direction.

Interesting theory from financial daily City AM:
...

I really cannot understand the people who genially believe in the theory that a "3633 Bitcoin in a single transaction" ($0.181bn) to disrupt with %22 a market with a daily volume of $150bn+?!

Bitcoin is volatile; Bitcoin is moving. Imagine what will happen when Tesla decides to cash-out.

Sell your coins while you can, price is almost certain to correct downwards by at least 50% over next few months.

Corrections are inevitable, but there is nothing scary if you are here for the long game.

If you are right, I and I guess many other people will be able to buy again at lower prices. So again, nothing to be scared off Smiley
One of the biggest mistakes in the crypto world and in any existing market is to panic, I think that if it falls below 50% it does not matter, it is known that the price will recover again, what is difficult to determine is when it will happen.

If we take into account that many corporations and some famous people in the world are buying Bitcoin, they are not going to buy to lose, they buy to generate profits, the best investments and the vision of the future that they undoubtedly have in the market is unique, it should be noted They have very good financial advisers, that can be a great guarantee.

You are right.

The panic among FOMO and the lack of discipline are our biggest enemies in trading and crypto, but in life in general.

Always make investment decisions on a clear head and only with money you can afford to lose.

- You can store a text to be hidden within a normal PNG, JPG or GIF image file. The output image (always PNG) created would work just as normal, but you’d have the secret text within it.

Don't do this, especially if you plan to keep the image online. This could work 10 years ago, but not today. Now you have plenty of auto image scanners with the ability to detect these 'hidden' messages.

Just use a hardware wallet...

Re: Automated orders affecting price dip?
by
Tstar
on 23/02/2021, 22:37:32 UTC
Traditional traders use a stop loss at 5-10% below the current price. A downward push of 20% can make all the stop losses pop and that cascades into an avalanche...

Leveraged traders use a multiplier which means they can get in a forced liquidation situation.

Going short can cause liquidation when price rises...

Many more of these killer events...

This is true only for the margin trading stop-loss orders.

All perpetual contract futures, which have billions in daily volume, are trading 'on paper', and the avalanche would affect only the specific contract and for a short time. What could affect real trading is that many traders use futures contracts to indicate what will follow on margin/spot trading.

Re: Someone bought BTC at $6K yesterday at an exchange and they want it back
by
Tstar
on 23/02/2021, 21:33:44 UTC
I don't think he has no choice but to return it just like what you have said they know his address and name. But I think it's the exchange's fault and not the user the good thing to do is to maybe give the user a reward for returning the Bitcoin but if the buyer becomes greedy well I'm not sure what will be the PDAX's move after that.

What if they have their address and name? Is this exchange a part of a mob clan or something?!

Of course they could do something - sue with the exchange if there is nothing in the TOS about order price deviation and cancelation! This is not his fault. If this was a DEX, you couldn't do a thing!

I've noticed that people are blindly buying almost every 'swap' coin. So, in the past two months, I started buying small amounts around their announcements and while it's not x1000, this brings me easily x10.

The latest examples are JulSwap (JULD) and Helmet.insure (HELMET)

Re: What happened to investment strategy BLSH?

BLSH is still a valid strategy, but you have to wait longer now as it's after every disruptive news/period like the Tesla entering the crypto.

Today I bought under $50k, plan to sell at around $56.7, and then to repeat.

Re: Artist _ bitcoin

Hi there!

I'm Sabrina and I'm an artist (not digital).

I'd like to begin to sell my artworks by accepting bitcoin, but I don't have (and I don't want) an e-commerce.
How can I begin to enter in the Cryptocurrency world? And also to let the people know that I'm available to accept this form of payment?

I don't know anything about cryptocurrency and I didn't really understand by reading few articles.

Thank you very much for reading my topic!

Sabrina

Sorry to hear that.

YOLOdice was one of the few sites offering something new a few years ago. While I'm not playing there for a long time, I made some coins from investment back then Smiley

Re: Failure of exchanges

Guys, I’m asking for your opinion.
In connection with the last Ddos-attak on the EXMO exchange (the official response of the exchange), it is a question of time who will be the next target. Have you ever had a breakdown in the stock exchanges you use? If so, how has management responded?


DDoS attacks are pretty nasty and even the most prepared sites could fall. But if the exchange has adequate security, they are not such a problem because DDoS attacks are blocking only access to the front-end without touching the funds.

In general, keep on exchanges the bare minimum for your trading needs and be patient when it happens.

Re: Safepal Vs Ledger Nano S : Which is better
by

on 20/02/2021, 21:09:18 UTC
Ledger Nano S  wallet has already very good repute but it is a bit expensive as compare to the newly launched SafePal hardware wallet invested by binance.
Which of these two wallet is more safe and if both have same features, its better to buy safepal wallet and save some dollars ?


https://shop.ledger.com/products/ledger-nano-s
https://shop.safepal.io/products/safepal-hardware-wallet-s1-bitcoin-wallet

Any hardware wallet is better than no hardware wallet. The clear winner here is Ledger Nano S.

Nano S has better software, supports multi-sig transactions, and is most important to me - I trust it more.

Re: Doge or Bitcoin? Which to buy?

I only have $10000, should i buy doge or btc? Why?

DOGE is a joke coin, a meme coin currently pumped from Elon Musk and sheep that blindly follow the mass.

If you have a higher risk tolerance, try some of the popular DeFi/Smart-contract coins. DOGE will remain a joke.

Forced spending on government-controlled inflated money is just another form of taxation.

I find it even worse than the current because now you still have places with low or zero taxation.

Re: Is the current bitcoin price sustainable?
by
Tstar
on 16/02/2021, 21:19:32 UTC
It wasn't a surprise because bitcoin was close to $50k price for a couple of weeks but will it be stable there ?

During the next week will the price be heading downward because of sellers making profits or is it going upward when the next price to generate media interest will be $75k ?

It's difficult work out if it's going to stay stable at $48k to $50k

It is sustainable because every day big corporations are announcing support or adoption.

Here is one of the interesting articles on the subject:

https://news.bitcoin.com/morgan-stanley-cryptocurrencies-asset-class-bitcoin-replace-dollar/

We may see some drops, but the price should rise in the long run.
