I wanna give my real opinion -- The 2000 USD per bitcoin in 2017, prediction made by Kim Dotcom, sounded insane. We ended up reaching 20k.

Now with predictions at 50k, I'm guessing 500k is not out of reach. Especially with Wall Street money finally flowing in and two ETFs under way.

If you’re a fan of cryptocurrency and your country has banned crypto, you should move to Liberland, the land that recently adapted crypto as their official national currency. The Land was founded on April 13, 2015, by a Croatian economist and entrepreneur Vid Jedlicka, It lays on a 7 square kilometers radius and it borders between Serbia and Croatia.
Liberland is right now accepting applications for citizenship and those wishing to end up as citizens have to stand by the rules and directions. Half a million individuals from over the world, including more than 20,000 American citizens and around 7,000 from the United Kingdom have as of now applied for citizenship for this Eastern European nation.

Yes that what I am saying, if we use renewable energy for mining ,it will solve the problem easily.

yes it is not easy to pick the best ico. Prediction will go positive 60% time if you do these steps. Please do
these steps,  I will help you to choose.

Glad to see this information coming from our Prime minister. 🙏 We can see India's first decentralized network of solar energy using blockchain.  The solution will change how India is using solar power. That's good to hear.

But i got some points also

They said, cryptocurrencies are not legal tender.. you can't go and buy mango with cryptocurrencies. You can trade them, store as an asset.

Today i saw a paper reporting that Bitcoin will eat all the electricity of the world , when it will be upgraded to mass level.  Although i think  Bitcoin may not be a total environmental disaster, the Earth would certainly be a greener place if the Bitcoin network didn't consume so much electricity to process a relatively small number of transactions. I think there are still something to develop.

There are few ways we can try :

• Right now there are basically three ways this could happen. One way, i got in this forum, is for Bitcoin's price to decline. Because the way of mining Bitcoin needs huge power costing , may be that is one of the reason of price hike. I actually wants Bitcoin as a stable currency rather than gambling.
• Another option would be to reduce the network's 12. 5 bitcoin-per-block reward sooner than the scheduled 2020 reduction. But that's easier said than done. Bitcoin mining companies are not going to go along with this willingly, and Bitcoin fans are likely to oppose such a move as well.
• A third choice is change the Bitcoin mining process fully. Bitcoin's present mining calculation depends on figuring a super massive number of cryptographic hash capacities. However, different digital forms of money have been investigating options and other ways. Bitcoin Gold is an as of late made variation of Bitcoin that uses a "memory-hard" mining calculation that may turn out to be less power hungry—however it would even now devour tremendous measures of juice. More fascinating mining calculations exist that could drastically decrease control utilization.

Government are helpless
Government authorities can also be are often powerless here. When any country tries to force a change, mining operations would simply flee to another jurisdiction. Changing Bitcoin by regulatory fiat would require a coordinated global regulatory effort, which does not seem to be  happen any time soon.

Changing to an elective mining calculation would likewise be questionable among traditionalists and would be unequivocally contradicted by mine workers. It would wipe out mining organizations' multi-million dollar interests in custom mining equipment. Such a stage isn't outlandish, yet it appears to be probably not going to happen at any point in the near future.

As i am a creative developer , i was thinking to participate new ICO campaign running in 2018 session. Please suggest me reliable ICO with graphics artwork or Video bounty program. Thank you .

Hey Guys , How are you all ? I was confused in choosing different Altcoin for start trading . I researched online few days and got some clues and That's why i decided to write a speedy introduction to pick which altcoins to put resources into, roused by the inquiries we get from our individuals. Lets Start>>>>>>>>

Initial Research:
The initial step is to investigate our convenient Coin Market Cap. Coin Market Cap ranks crypto currencies . All the market information gave by Coin Market Cap is essential. But there are 4 points you need to know about. Go to their website or thread. Collect these information.

-market cap
-price
-circulating supply
-volume

• Market cap is simply the price multiplied by the circulating supply. Market top is essentially the cost duplicated by the flowing supply. In traditional securities exchanges, higher market cap securities are less risky, however unintentionally give less ROIs.
• Lower advertise tops are more unsafe, yet take into consideration more noteworthy ROIs. It's additionally great to recollect the essential financial aspects on supply: the higher the supply, the lower the esteem (and the other way around).
• The circling supply is characterized by Coin Market Cap as "the best guess of the quantity of coins that are coursing in the market and in the overall population's hands." This bars coins that can't be utilized or exchanged. At last, volume is the dollar measure of a crypto exchanged a timeframe (24 hours for this situation). Think about every one of these variables when searching for a coin that you need to put resources into that will develop in an incentive after some time.

A Real Scenario and Suggestion:

• For instance, suppose you needed to put resources into XXX.
• The primary thing you ought to do is go to XXX's site and read what they are putting forth. THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP. You have to make sense of what's so incredible about the coin you're going to contribute.
• Don't aimlessly put resources into something because of another person's suggestion.

Do your own particular research and pose vital inquiries like:

• What problem is the alt coin providing a solution for?
• What value is it adding and who does it affect the most?
• Who is the team behind this coin and what are their credentials and motivations?

Some Social Research :
When you get a handle on the use of the coin and the group behind it, see what individuals are discussing in connection to the coin. To do this, tap on the "Social" tab in Coin Market Cap. You will see tweets and reddit posts talking about the coin. Scavenge through these and do your statistical surveying on how different brokers feel about the coin you need to put resources into.

Then, of course, the last step is to read the charts. We have a separate thread for how to read charts and chart patterns, and the subject is covered in much more detail in our e-book, Getting Started with Crypto Trading. Following these steps should allow you to make informed investment/trading decisions, rather than just blind hope or luck.

Guys please post your ways of finding good Altcoin to invest. Thank you. Hope you liked.

Very Much good points , i will check these from now on .

I am supporting you, not against you. You will not suffer because you got merit in your first post.

Thanks for being generous . I am not saying give merit to me, I am saying give merit to us. You guys have sMerits , you guys are GOD of this arena. Thank you.

After the implementation of merit system the activity of mass user has been decreased vitally. Yes the spam posting has been decreased also. Peoples are targeting for merit, so they are investing time for quality posting. Therefore the activities are decreased than previous.But the merit is important to level up.

For newbie /Jr Member( who need merits seriously): I think we should not target for merit and give time for making good post. Just do normally. Go with the flow. Don't try hard.

For Legendary / Hero (Who got enough sMerits ) :
Sir , be more generous to give Merit. I know merit will not decay. But what is the reason to save. Even when I got few merits to give , I was thinking where to give. It's complex,I know. But you guys have enough , you guys could apply to Theymos to become merit source if you don't have enough. Right now you guys could solve the problem.

Merit System is awesome , but it depends on us. Be more generous to give merit. And the rest will be done by the combination of senior guys and Junior guys. Let's do it.
