First of all they need the right product. The idea and concept trumps everything, then they need a solid team behind the project. A lot of investors invest based only on the team backing the project, marketing is also very important.

Re: Should I convert my BCH to BTC?

I think you should convert to Btc.
There is another fork very soon.
As far as i know it will happen in October 25.
You can get some bitcoin gold if you hold bitcoin.

Why don't you hold all? It is an airdrop after all, meaning there is no risk whatsoever. If the price tanks hard you lose nothing, If it spikes you gain everything. Only sell if you need to.

Re: ✰ [ANN] BITMIXCOIN.IO ✰ High Volume Bitcoin Mixer ✰ READ UPDATES!

I've been using bitcoin since it sold for about $20. And I did a lot of "big things" with my coins back in the days when adoption was shit, and the only place you could spend them was at DNM's. I discovered then that the best way to buy coins anonymously was with cash or using secondary markets, like darknet markets, local bitcoins, bitcoin ATM, etc. These methods ensured you could buy your coins without using an ID.
I found out the hard way that forensic blockchain analysis is real. I tend to keep that in mind when dong big things with bitcoin. Using a good and secure mixer is a necessity not a choice for me. Choosing one is often difficult, so I spread my transactions around different ones. My experiences have been generally okay, except for when I was scammed by coinmixer.net, run by serial scammer  moriartybitcoin. I hope that fucker is dead, and his death was/is slow and painful.
I have used just about every mixer out there. from helix, bitblender, bitmixer.io - oh how I miss bitmixer - and most recently chipmixer. And I must say bitmixcoin has surprised me a lot. I took it for another shitty clone of "the mixer with no bottle", that shut down after a little heat from LE. However, its been smooth sailing so far and I rate them A++.  I will keep using different mixers, especially the established ones, but bitmixcoin will remain number one on my list until something changes.

Re: How do you deal with loss?

As a trader, you should set a stop loss, and always adhere to it. Trading is not only making profits, but knowing when to get out of a trade albeit in red.

Re: What impresses you the most about Bitcoin?

Everything about it, most especially the fact that payments cannot be reversed. As an online retailer, it suits my needs just fine and protects me from scammy charge backs.

Re: Newbie question (buying BTC at Kraken)

Your bitcoins are not controlled by you in this case as you don't hold the private keys to the address they are in. Technically the btc still belongs to Kraken until you withdraw/deposit them into an address you control.

Hopefully it falls flat on its face and sells below $10, anything under $50 will be a great price to buy in. I wonder if thie price will fall that low.

For gaming I have a geforce 8400GS and it alternates between 51-56 on idle. The lowest it has ever been was 44, and when gaming it alternates between 59-66 with the highest @  68. I use a speed fan to get accurate readings and it helps me know when it is abnormal.

Re: Any New Crypto Currencies to look into?

I like Factom, even though it is not exactly new. It is a blockchain based system which optimizes and stores millions of real time records under  single hash. It is very useful for all kinds of business applications, and I see a very bright future when more people get to use it, the price will mos definitely increase.It is doing very well at the moment too.

There are none, it is simply entertainment. If you approach it with this attitude, you may get lucky sometimes, if you go in hoping to come out wealthy, you will lose.

Litecoin has stagnated in 2017. The bad news for holders is tha they need to wait much longer to see good profits, It may be years before it tops $100. The good news is for people looking for a stable coin with less volatility.

Sometimes they take their time to credit accounts, Its over 24 hours since you posted your complaint here, I am assuming they have sorted you out. If not keep posting here and try to reach them on other channels. The support is sluggish but they will come through.

Re: BITCOIN vs ETH ? Your thoughts?

Thus far, ethereum has been used mainly by the ico to raise funds, apart from that nothing much is happening. Bitcoin has better adoption rate, especially outside the crypto community, this is why it is my number one.

The number of people using it by 2022 will be more than double compared with today, but it would still be only a relative fraction of normal currency users.

An IPO typically occurs at a later stage in a companies development. Not only will the company have a viable product which earns revenue, they will be close to or already profitable.

it is Depend on your Rank , Twitter or facebook followers and your work But Basically More than 15$ weekly

I think this is not correct information.
If you will participate in signature campaign of some successfull ICO (10 000 000$ or more) you can earn about 500-2000$ in 1-2 months. Yes it will be coins of new company, but after they go to exchanges you can have good profit from bounty!
This is very good information, thank you. I have participated in a couple of signature campaigns so far, but I never understood the fuss over bounty campaigns. I need to deep a bit deeper.
