    Is trading in ICO any different than in IPO?

    Bro, don't pop a blood vessel or something... Relax and enjoy show. I've been holding since 2014 and this volatility is awesome. The level of interest from many countries, especially Japan and South Korea, of course China, as well as Europe and the Americas, north and south is great...

    How to trade cryptocurrencies now as the "buy and hold" seems to be over for a long time?

    ^^^ This is a very important concept with cryptos, but many won't fully understand the gravity of what you're saying. Cryptocurrency is about being your own bank. When you transfer your coins to the exchange, you have effectively given them the coins. Period. You may think they owe you, but...

    When Will Bitcoin Hit $3,000?

    I only invested an amount that I know I can afford to lose. We have to learn the hard lessons on our own. It's not called regrets for nothin'. :vomit:

    When Will Bitcoin Hit $3,000?

    The micro-transactions are not feasible nowadays with bitcoin, as the transaction fees are about $2+ if you want to be included quickly by the miner. If you don't mind waiting a while, then you can set the transaction fee lower...

    When Will Bitcoin Hit $3,000?

    I'm of the mindset that bitcoin is more for store of value, like a Swiss account and should be used for "special" transactions, i.e. big purchase. I don't want to use bitcoin for coffee, when I have Android pay or paypal CC on me. I'm about to purchase a laptop on purse.io (to get a 15%...

    Trading Bitcoin With Leverage.

    Answers are only for bitcoin cryptocurrency but there are a lot of other cryptos and Ethereum (#2 currently) may surpass bitcoin in market cap at the rate it's growing. https://coincap.io/ All good questions... I run a bitcoin node (which is also a monero node) which is different than a...

    Trading Bitcoin With Leverage.

    [you meant your instead of you're] Anything is possible. There are many exchanges, by the way. I can also get hit by a car and die when I go out in the next half hour. That's just the way it goes. I don't make decisions based on disastrous possibilities that may or may not happen. One...

    If you bought Bitcoin on Friday, you have lost almost 28%

    Ahh, yea, I see your point. I don't follow most of coins and I'm only holding 3 coins (not including btc as I only have a small amount of btc). I don't trade, just buy and hold . There's musical chairs moving around, but there's also organic growth coming from Japan and South Korea and more...

    If you bought Bitcoin on Friday, you have lost almost 28%

    I'm not buying any btc at this price, but there are some cryptos that are still undervalued. All the cryptos combined are only worth $100B and many coins are lost. Amazon crossed $1000/share and is in the running for the 1st trillion$ company along with Apple, Google, FB... Citigroup worth...

    I think $3000 is the resistance for this week. $4000 price poll for end of the month?

    If you bought Bitcoin on Friday, you have lost almost 28%

    ok, gotta resurrect this thread. GDAX shows bitcoin at $2750 each, so I don't know the all time high, I thought it was $2700 which means it's higher today?

    If you bought Bitcoin on Friday, you have lost almost 28%

    This is not true. You can buy bitcoin with EUR, GBP, CNY using any of the exchanges worldwide, or you can buy it with drugs (illicit and non-illicit) or fake rolex watches or online accounts on the darknet markets. You can also purchase Amazon items at a premium for people (purse.io) and they...

    If you bought Bitcoin on Friday, you have lost almost 28%

    During the financial crisis/collapse, when the central banks printed trillion$ overnight (and the printing presses are still very busy up to now), Satoshi Nakamoto said wtf. He created Bitcoin that will not be a currency that is run and controlled by the worldwide elites, governments, central...

    Bitcoin is a decentralized peer-to-peer cryptocurrency. What peer to peer means is that each node on the bitcoin network is running a bitcoin software that enforces rules based on the open source software that can be examined by anyone in the world on the github software repository. The node...

    If you bought Bitcoin on Friday, you have lost almost 28%

    The smallest unit is a satoshi. If you have 100 million friends on facebook, you can give each one a satoshi. It's a very bad example because the fees will be many thousands of satoshis per transaction, so you'll need much more than 1 bitcoin to send that many transactions. Added url for...
