Coinmarketcap already shows Byteball Bytes. C'mon guys, people can not be so dumb. If they can't see the correlation they don't deserve to have Byteball. They would dump it anyway.

Yes, because regardless of Bitcoin changing its value, we know that the future of all fiat currencies is to go down.

Btw, that condition by itself implies that Bitcoin will continue to go up.

You brought some very good points. I have to add that in this market there are not only dreamers, there are also people who know very well what they are getting into. But they will continue to invest and promote these scam tokens because they think they are smarter than everybody else.

The bad news for them is that they may end up scamming themselves. These guys have no idea of how illiquid these markets are, and there will be not enough room for most of them when they try to cash out.

It is risky, and of course not a good idea. Even though there are so many signs that it can be a great long term investment, if you have all your money in it, you may end up acting in an emotional way when Bitcoin experiences big drops in price. And if you have to cash out because of your daily needs, you may have to do it at a loss.

I guess it's because dev needs more time to bring more merchants onboard, but there may be another reason behind it.

Billionaires are people with the ability to identify value in things that can help them preserve their wealth and give profit to them. So I would not be surprised if they are holding/buying Bitcoin, since it not only gives them these properties, but also allows them to have more control over their money, without having to trust in third parties.

They're wise in not saying they will do what can't be done.

That's probably true. Part of it is because very few people know about the underlying technology of Byteball, which means we need a better marketing plan.

Another reason is because it's only listed on a few exchanges, which means we have to contact the big ones. But chances of success are greater if we contact them after the coins are distributed.

According to this, Byteball could still be seen as a friendly platform for regulated assets:

We are seeing all these ICOs doing 5, 10, 20x, but I wonder if all those people decided to cash out... I think there is not even enough liquidity for all of them.

Is Bitcoin Cash sucking the blood of alts? Another red day...

Yes, if the addresses are not empty you have more to gain.

It can be offline during the distribution.

More devices do not increase your earnings. Your holdings in linked addresses are what matters.

We are seeing the combined effect of distributions dumping and bloodbath in the altcoins market. We can pass through this.

I don't think miners have that much control over the code. Devs can propose a POW change at worst. And you follow the brains no matter what

Although the decisions are made more decentralized in ETC, both have the same technology, which means that when projects start to be developed on top of it, ETC may have the same problems that Ethereum is having right now.

Despite the long term bullish trend, right now Bitcoin is not in a situation I would consider steady. Five percent drop is a high value for a multi-billion dollar marketcap. Regarding the altcoins drop, when Bitcoin falls in price many people sell their altcoins to buy Bitcoin.

Hard to tell, but I'm not willing to take the risk... I've withdrawn my funds from there a long time ago.

There are already scientists and enthusiasts using implant technologies to control electronic devices, or even to manage smart homes. So I think it's just a matter of time before something is designed for Bitcoin.

I think it's all about uncertainty. It is almost certain that we will have segwit in less than two months, but people are afraid that later there might be a fork to 2 mb, six months from now. I honestly think it's very unlikely that this will happen.
