Re: Do you find Success in Gambling?

For luck based games, it could be true but for sports betting I think you can win more than your loss.
In sports betting yeah it's different you can analyze and have your strategy on what to bet.

For some gamblers it's possible for them to have more wins but for me, it's difficult.
Sports’ betting is actually a different ball game compared to every other form of gambling which I believe really that with some good analysis sometimes and knowing how to manage the risk as well as your funds, you can be successful at it.

I am saying this not because I am a sport better, but I have seen people analyzing matches before and even though sometimes it is centered on luck as things may not work as planned, but most of the time, things get to turn out the way they analyze it and I can imagine how people in that category would be fairing over time when it comes to sport betting.
Gambling in my view is a worst thing in the world and I don’t that there is any benefit or success in a worst thing. Millions of people destroyed their lives in gambling and you are looking for success in gambling. The success is this never touch gambling online or offline. Now there are thousands gambling online sites which destroyed the young generation.

No, gambling cannot help us succeed in life. Gambling is a big hindrance to reaching our goal. It is not a good habit specially if you only have enough money for daily needs.

Re: Why do older people like investing in Gold/Silver?

Because between us and they have gap about generation  Grin Grin Grin
In fact, older people always have a lot of worries and I do not think they are interested in investing in Crypto because they are afraid because Crypto is so new and it's like a virtual thing, they can not see it and can not handle it. In addition, Bitcoin have a huge risk and it is not valued by any model and fears that this is a psychological game.
I have met many old people and I told them about Bitcoin, as a result I was scolded for daring to believe what the internet said, oh my gods @@

Gold and silver are the most secure for them since it is the all time sure money back and traditional way of investment. It is real can physically available that can be use anytime you like. A fashion and always ready for anything if you need money to use because you can sell it or pawn in a very reasonable price.

What would be your top 5 to 10 concerns or questions you have for bitcoin and rest of cryptocurrency?

questions on future?

What is going on?
current state of affairs?
political?
social?
technology?
adaptation?
economical?

what are your concerns or questions you have that don't have answers to them at this time?


My main concern in cryptocurrency and bitcoin is the volatility and the slow market movement. Added to it is the adaptation and the government regulation that also affect the market condition of cypto. And also it's security measures to avoid scams and hacking that is very rampant.

Re: Which one do you choose?

follow me prefer to use bitcoin at the exchange site, because for buying and selling online.
When you trade you can at least get a little profit, but if you use it for shopping you are just going to lose your money.
Also for buying internet digitals/services buying something real for me is rare

I agree because bitcoin is not accepted as payment in some online shops. Actually very rare are accepting. I rather use bitcoin in buying altcoins or trading it in exchanges. Bitcoin is more likely an asset than a digital currency that is used like a fiat money. So, it is better if we use it in buying and trading to earn profit.

I experience acceptance for several friends but any of them are rejections. That is so frustrating because rejections are higher than acceptance and they will even accuse you to be a scammer. thats rediculous.


Some of my friends are interested to learn crypto and are studying about it at the moment while some are negative about it. I don't care how they react because I know for sure that one day they will fully understand what crypto really is. And what it can do to the world where technology is growing real fast. I will not waste my time in explaining to them I would rather show them proofs.

Re: Still did not get bounty rewards?
by
pinot95
on 08/09/2018, 13:07:43 UTC
Yes this is my questions among all bounty hunters. In my 4 months on doing bounty i campaign i have promoted 2 ICO's already and the first one still counting the stakes and still working on the distribution of the tokens. Some had receive already and i thought about receiving too but until now no tokens found in my digital wallet even after searching it on etherscan if there are relatively made a transaction to my digital wallet address and there is none. I have gave my effort and quality time for them to promote their project that includes also the resources being used like internet connection fee and the electricity are all wasted for the project i guess. I think this could be my last project to promote and if i still will not get any rewards then quitting is an option.

Many bounty projects lately are very slow in giving rewards to bounty hunters. I think it is because of the market condition that is not favorable. ICOs too are holding their tokens, stop distribution because they are waiting for a good value of their coin. Quitting is an option for me I still continue doing  bounties and hoping everything will be back to normal.

Re: How to avoid ICO scam
by
pinot95
on 08/09/2018, 05:55:50 UTC
I mean, is there an exact list of rules that could guarantee that someone who follows them will surely not become a victim of another ICO scam. Of course there are obvious rules like event participation, reputation of team members among ather prifessionals, approve by well-known advisors. But potential scammers also know all these criteria and know what to fake exactly.

Is there a 'blockchain way' to create an algorithm, scheme or set of conditions allowing to recognise and ban scammers? Not government laws way which also good for the market in my opinion.

Would be appreciate a link to an old thread, perhaps I just didn't find it.

UPD Best Advices:
  • learn about previous ICO projects, select viable ones and participate similar ICOs
  • invest in an ICO with a working prototype only


Yes, scammers now are very professional in their field. An expert in doing evil deeds. It is hard to determine because they have upgraded their style of scamming. You realized you have been scammed until you become a victim. That's why be mindful and careful always.

Re: HOW TO STOP HACKERS TO HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET

HOW TO STOP HACKERS TO HACK YOUR CRYPTO WALLET
Protect yourself from cyber criminals

Good day to all of you guys I am EdsnowAngel a programmer and a bit security tester in different platforms. Now I heard to my friends a lot of concerns saying "please help me my bitcoin wallet was hacked!!"
Ok ok first thing first when your bitcoin wallet gets compromised then your funds was send in different wallet then it is irreversible meaning no return of funds!! so I wanna tell everyone how to protect your bitcoin wallet from such kind of situation.

1st: Protect your GMAIL or EMAIL ACCOUNT
     
       We all know we use GMAIL as our email provider for such accounts like blockchain then we can recover and approve login with email in some wallets, now when your email account was targeted and get compromised then say goodbye to your bitcoin.To secure your bitcoin wallet(ex: blockchain or other) go to your google account settings. and then turn on the 2FA(2nd factor authentication) here is the guide on how to do it: STEP BY STEP GUIDE

2nd: Use your own DEVICE or COMPUTER/PHONE
 
       It's a very bad idea to use someones device(ex:from friend) to make a transaction in your bitcoin wallet why? because first you don't know what is the capability of that person regarding that matters and you don't know if that phone has a lot of malwares and spywares.So we cannot say that you are safe using someones device to make transactions.

3rd: Always backup you PK's or PRIVATE KEYS

     
       This is the most important thing to remember for everyone using your ETH or BTC wallet without backing up your Private keys then you can't recover you wallet in case you forgot your wallet.PK's are very important but there are thing you should do first. Make sure you store your PK backup somewhere that you only know and not from your computer because there are some spyware that might inside of your computer that can steal that file so make sure you back it up print in a paper and hide it to the place where you only know.

4th: Don't open links from malicious emails

      This method was called email phishing where an attacker will send the same email in thousands of random users once the victim will click the link in that email then his or her device was compromised to avoid this please do not click the links included in the email immediately please always have time to check who is the sender of that email and if that email is came from the site where it supposed to came from.

5th: Do not trust PUBLIC WIFI 

      It's quite good to have access with free wifi's but have you think this: IS THIS A SAFE NETWORK? without you knowing maybe some of the people connected to that same network may have idea and skill on how to sniff passwords and credentials this method was so called DNS SPOOFING or SNIFFING if you want to use public wifi then use it not just with your bitcoin transactions.

6th: Do not login on Suspicious links

     This method is called PHISHING where an attacker  will send you a link to login with your bitcoin wallet luring you with the legitimate site example is:
the real site is: https://www.blockchain.info/
the fake site is: http://www.blockchain.ga/

then once you login to the fake site then the hacker or attacker will have now your credentials. Please always check for the green lock on the url bar and the word HTTPS in the link.


so this are some of the way to stop hackers to hack your bitcoin or crypto wallet. If you have other information then you can comment it down and lets help others.

To stop hackers from hacking your bitcoin wallet is simply by protecting and securing your wallet pinkeys. Never leave it to somewhere else not safe. Must keep it in an offline storage or print it in a paper. DO not save it in an email account or in messengers inbox that are hackable.

A lot of people now days jumping and investing in the cryptocurrency industry.
If you are not investing in crypto, where do you else invest?
Property ? normal crowdfunding? give your input

Aside from cryptocurrency I also invest in real estate property. Real estate property is a realistic and useful investment that is in demand today.  But I am planing to do stock market investment too in the future. As of now I am more focus in cryptocurrency business while doing some research on how to become a successful entrepreneur in the future.

Re: Bitcoin Market is down.

on 04/09/2018, 12:43:34 UTC
This year has been a bit challenging for bitcoins as well as Ether to survive. Bitcoins are facing a quite low price now and also i think that most of the investors have taken their money off bitcoins.

Here is the graph showing us the price for bitcoins from 2009 to 2017


We all know that bitcoins really pumped a lot in 2017 but from the starting of 2018 bitcoins are low. A lot of FUD was been created and bitcoins really faced a lot of difficulties. Price for bitcoins at the starting of 2018 has been low similar to the year 2017.
I really hope that the price for bitcoins can again show us immense growth as it showed in 2017.

Bitcoin for now is moving slowly and i hope that the market will continue to rise so we can now trade our crypto currency holdings because once bitcoin will rise i believed some of the altcoins are also increasing.
some things happen from the start of the bubble, until some investors move on to another con that has better predictions than bitcoin, especially the price that is very cheap compared to bitcoin.

Right now, Bitcoin is slowly climbing up.  The predictions see bitcoin will recover by the end of the year 2018 and as we can see it seems happening. Some believe the leading crypto coin could reach as low as $4,000. At the same time, several coins are attempting to chart their own path, especially those that have a higher share of fiat trading. As bitcoin shows good sign, more altcoins may be sold to acquire Bitcoin positions.

Re: Where do you usually get your news on current events about crypto

I try to read different resources and analyze information about ICO and forecasts of coin rates. There are different web sites and apps. I like ICO alarm.


For me I usually get news in Cointelegraph, Coindesk, cryptocurrencynews.com  for latest updates in cryptocurrency. But there are also different websites that also talks about cryptocurrency and bitcoin. Some are positive feedbacks and others are also giving negative feedbacks but it depends on how you take the news. Anyway any kind of news about crypto contributes its popularity.

You think this is the price you want, and you can sell it. Whether it's going up or down, you're out.

That's right, you can sell your coin if your aim value has reached. Most importantly you are not selling it in a losing price. The market now is recovering almost all are green but I think there is a higher price other than today's price. Maybe you should wait/hold a couple of weeks but it is all up to you.

Re: Main reason behind crypto currencies red market in 2018
by
pinot95
on 31/08/2018, 14:22:28 UTC
2018 has so far seen the highest funds jointly raised through ICOs.
This has a minimal effect on bitcoins value, a lot of other factors also have effects in the price.
There has been very little real possitive news for the most of 2018.

Many reasons behind crypto red market and it includes; First, the market manipulations. Whales can manipulate price. Orchestrating large sums of digital coins, whales create necessary conditions to buy crypto at a low price or sell at a high. Second is the regulation, government does not recognize cryptocurrencies as legal tender and will take all measures to eliminate the use of these cryptoassets in financing illegitimate activities or as part of the payments system. and etc.,

There's alot of people move out from Cryptocurrency some are for their loses and without experience,some are doing for in bounty campaigns but still not get result so I want to know behalf of that reason I have mention is correct. What do you think?

Yes to some extent I still believe in bounties and cryptocurrency itself. Although lately there are many fake ICOS spreading and after doing a hard time in the bounty they end up not giving reward as they promised in the beginning of the ICO project. There are still good ICOS that are good enough to pay and distribute coins afterwards. Even if the values incredibly low I still find bounty hunting worthwhile.

Now is the time to begin accumulating for the next bull run. Don't feel bad if you invest money and do not see instant returns, research, and be patient. i anticipate a sluggish market until late 2018-early 2019. That being said I'm happily accumulating Spectrecoin, Xspec right now in anticipation for 2019. Good luck investing

 
The right time to buy altcoins is now while the price is still low because there is a big chance of full recovery of the market place in the next few days. We don't want to miss the chance of earning big profit. The best time is invest in crypto is now but you need to choose the best and potential altcoin for a good gain.

I don't know how I Explain my feelings. I Just lost all of my savings money. I was holding since January, I have been Holding to make again a good amount of Money. But at the end, my holding's output is, I lost everything because of my ETH wallet got hack! Almost 5K USD Stolen. All of my hard working money. I Don't know how can hacker hacked my wallet. Because I Kept very secure my private key, My friends are telling that hacker hacked my wallet by my email address. But how can someone hack only by an email address?

I Got a security alert from Google that someone has your password after then I changed my password immediately. Then after some time, I was checking my wallet to check new Coin. And then I Shocked! I Just want to give up, can't think what should I do  Cry

This is very disappointing, I'm sorry for your loss. It is not easy to lose money in an instant specially being hacked. I hope you have consoled yourself now. Email address is not safe it is prone to hackers. Any online storage even messengers email inbox can be opened by hackers. Better if you print your pinkey in a paper or save in a usb or any external storage. Better luck next time.

The crypto market is starting to improve, but not knowing for the next month, I just think that being able to go up a little is already a good thing.
This year the market is not healthy but better than 2 years ago.

After a tragic downfall of crytocurrency market since the beginning of this year 2018, Bitcoin and other crypto will again be able to head to newer highs as well. Many investors believe that it will be able to hit new highs consistently during the 2nd half of the year. And hopefully it will happen because as we can see previous days that the crypto price started to increase little by little.

Everybody actually can benefit with bitcoin and cryptocurrency. The people, the economy the bounty hunters, the investors and anyone who is willing to learn crypto. Depending on your hardwork and capacity.  It is not limited to just a certain person but to all.

i think we should admit that learning is a continous process and no matter what level of knowledge you have in crypto, you still would have to learn new things. Sometimes learning comes from commiting mistakes.


Mistake is the best teacher they say. We should know to learn through our own mistake or else we keep making the same mistake. In crypto we can make many mistakes but from that we learn a lot that would make us grow and become even wiser. I don't believe no one here made a mistake from the past because me I made a lot of mistakes but I consider them a good teacher.

do you think positive and negative issues about cryptocurency on the internet will affect the rise and fall of the price of cryptocurency. therefore I have an opinion, what if we make a positive issue about cryptocurency that may make or affect the rise and fall of the market price of cryptocurency and here we are in a very big community, isn't that likely to affect globally ?
and how do you think about it ?, I want to see opinions from your side of perspective
 Thank you for your concern

I think all issues concerning bitcoin/cryptocurrencies can affect the rise and fall of the price. May it be positive or negative issue. As long as it is talking about crypto it will make a big impact in the community of cryptocurrency. It makes it even more interesting to others who are not familiar with it.
