Well thought through.. good luck team

I'd like to be part of this campaign but not a Jr. Member till

My bet is 6k.. don't think it will go down below that

worthy to know.. thanks for the informative post

Look the irony, the fiat which is still the denomination of Oil is the US Dollar, surprisingly US is not taking any adverse step to ban crypto... all other countries which bans crypto are doing to bring in regulation and correct the tax evading behaviour of their people. Major part of Europe has not banned, France for a change called for crypto startups as such they are a Fintech nation.
The move forward by OPEC nations needs to be observed, they have a vested interest to see crypto survive as it will bring the equation much to their side, if they can trade without dollar. The stability in oil market is something that the rest of the world is favoring whereas the OPEC nations may like to have a surging price, when that happens as per the projections, Gulf nations may accept crypto to destabilize dollar and when the trading can be done in crypto, the valuation will soar. One have to look at the actions of crown prince of UAE, a move of this order cannot be ruled out.
What will be the action of US then? Central bank / Trump may ban crypto in US at that point or wage wars like someone stated previously on countries and create a trading route for weapons which is dollar dominated.. this will be endless and finally crypto will survive..

90% from 19K level, yeah.. check how much he has invested behind the screens
I bet investments from these behemoths are certain in bitcoin, for the external world they want to appear straight jacketed, rule book guys who are with the banks and large corporations.
When the blasphemy ends you will see the same folks with loads of bitcoins lining up in the exchanges.

It is going to be a roller coaster ride, no steep increase for a long time nor a slump for a long period, on an average if the coin fares at 13K that will bring fortune for many this year.

Guys, I feel most of you are overconfident of the matter.  Remember, the law of markets holds good for Crypto world too and unless the bear market falls, the bull is never gonna take on. And to see what will call in a bull market in Crypto, its the confidence and trust among large players, institutional support and a steady stakeholders. I hope in any one quadrant things should turn positive in the near future to keep the stakes high. I only wish that will happen!

oh Man.. its rallying bad.. in short term I don't see any cue for a spike, look how much it has gone down in a single day, the worse is still to come. To avoid loss partake in a short sell may be a 2/3rd to mitigate loss and keep the rest for the hay day!

I doubt any patch is developed so far.. it is a vulnerability with the chips by intel which are in use in computers. lets be hopeful someone fixes the problem soon.

Really.. now will they give me change in bitcoin if I pay them in currency

the next big thing in crypto world will be the correction but before that there will be a spike like never before.. exciting time ahead in 2018.. all the best bitcoiners

It is a complex situation.. while some countries like Japan are open most of other countries central banks are approaching this with caution and they do not subscribe. While there are banks which are trying to maximize their space in crypto world which are backing Ripple like currencies which are contolled and centralized. There is an existential threat for these banks if crypto world stabilizes and go mainstream so they will continue their games.

Excellent PoC! I appreciate.. but to my knowledge unless the computation power is exponentially increased like that of quantum computing, it will be a humangous task for any AI application to work on blockchain like technology. However I'd like to see how the project fares.

An interesting topic.. the very reason blockchain gained prominence is its decentralized and transparent approach. Bitcoin paved the way for all the cryptocurrency with this tenent and its engraved in the DNA. Having a regulator or a framework will work against this noble cause. Scam and scamsters with regard to ICO, they say as long as there are people ready to be ditched, there will be people who will ditch, simple as that.. it is the role of forum like this to spread the right message and followers have to be aware of the technology, environment and possible fraud, they should play with the risk in mind.
I recently read there were some 1500+ coins/tokens, market capitalization of many billions etc., we are in the event of making a psuedo economy sans share markets and banks, we are just beginning what we should keep in mind is the use case that we need to bring in to integrate various aspects of other economies or think totally out of the box to make this mainstream.
Don't worry about ICOs too many or too less, lets keep the evangelism to spread the right awareness.

Should you need any Tamil translation, I can be of help

read this, "If bitcoin ends up being the cyber-equivalent of gold it has a great potential left," which means he wants to keep the rat race on! lesser the supply more the demand and higher the valuation. Will it be possible when hundreds of altcoins flood the crypto economy? what bitcoin has to do differently to maintain its marquee? any expert view pls

Pal, just read the threads available in this forum, its such a fortune of information. I hope you would have gone through them, even before posting this question. Now, if you have any specific question which is not answered in the forum create a new thread. There are umpteen beginners study materials available, which I myself have made use of from this forum.

Ripple is my choice, as there will be a growing demand and hence the valuation.
