Great advice. Security is above all.
If you don't want your computer to be hacked by scammers, have a reliable antivirus, be careful with third-party software.

Its a natural progression of any industry, however if you look at the mobile OS market its been dominated by a couple, in essene the alt-coins will undoubtedly be dominated by a handful, we anticipate significant consolidation in the virtual currency space in 2018 leading into 2019, particularly with the G20 in the latter months of '18 causing friction
Most of the new coins coming out daily are created by ignorant developers
because they not have talent pure on programmer stuff. fork and leave ahahha (￣ω￣)
Yea, there are a lot optional wallets, normally wallets who are attached to blockchain additionally, a lot of wallets feature ones own cash from the countryside, this particular talked about, alt wallets have the opportunity to replace btc over to ones own corresponding cash, and certain alt wallets deliver a great deal more security and safety, Document don't believe every one alt wallets be able to execute this, still in the interest of any bitcoins decide the credit card which usually offer security and safety and additionally legitimacy, this is exactly valuable, most definitely if you happen to presenting a lot of btc, be sure.
Dash Core developers Joshua, Chuck, and Suba demonstrate the 2nd prototype of the first Dash decentralized application, show off some mobile app designs, and demonstrate the VMN block explorer.

The Lightning network advances Bitcoin Cash by the number of active knots
The Lightning network, perhaps, still is at an initial stage of development, but already has more active knots, than Bitcoin Cash network (BCH) in network.

Judging by the application submitted to patent bureau of the USA, the IBM company soon will be able to test new applications with the help a blockchain system.
I think so, but don’t play with your password.
Thank you.This is a good read and very informative. It is always necessary to carefully study the information before investing.
NEO seems the best after ETH
I haven't seen anybody post about what would be my biggest worry if I were trying out alternative block chains. I realize this may be perceived as "Gavin is FUD'ding anything that isn't bitcoin!" (FUD == Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) But I think some of you might be forgetting some basic computer security fundamentals in the excitement to be early adopters.
When I first heard about bitcoin, my questions were:
1) Can it possibly work (do the ideas for how it works make sense)?
2) Is it a scam?
3) If it is not a scam, could it open my computer up to viruses/trojans if I run it?
I answered those questions by:
1) Reading and understanding Satoshi's whitepaper. Then thinking about it for a day or two and reading it again.
2) Finding out everything I could about the project. I read every forum thread here (there were probably under a hundred threads back then) and read Satoshi's initial postings on the crypto mailing list.
3) Downloaded and skimmed the source code to see if it looked vulnerable to buffer overflow or other remotely exploitable attacks.
If I were going to experiment with an alternative block-chain, I'd go through the same process again. But I'm an old conservative fuddy-duddy.
If you want to take a risk on a brand-new alternative block-chain, I'd strongly suggest that you:
1) Run the software in a virtual machine or on a machine that doesn't contain anything valuable.
2) Don't invest more money or time than you can afford to lose.
3) Use a different passphrase at every exchange site.

Excellent thoughts and advice from an absolute professional and an exceptional specialist.
In 2018 they remain relevant and acceptable.
As if this record is made today ...
For the most part, in the event that you have a lot of bitcoins on a given PC, being additional mindful about outsider programming (be it an Alt-coin customer or an especially favor easygoing amusement) is fitting
if i have a large amount of bitcoins i will download part of it to offline wallet then trade with the remaining at top 5 exchanges based on users reviews and my research and will be extra-cautious about third party software especially software that is free to install
Hello Gavin, what a new blockchain should have to spark your interest? I mean what should it be capable of and futures you would expect?
you would think that someone who even tries to code knows to rather not say such things to programmer
hi i am newbie for this forum. what is blick chains? i hope there wants to answer me. thank you
There are lots of alternative wallets, mostly wallets that are connected to blockchain as well, some wallets offer their own currency of their country, with this said, alt wallets will be able to convert btc onto their own corresponding currency, and some alt wallets offer you more security, I don't think that all alt wallets have the ability to do this, but for the sake of your bitcoins choose the wallet that will offer you security and legitimacy, this is important, especially if you are holding a huge amount of btc, take care.
Choosing a wallet that will offer security and legitimacy, this is very necessary. Nowadays with a blockchain system as a technology of the future but this is still a risk of burglary, as with the theft of the wallet, but the PC then at risk this will be the minimum

The only things I might add is that "use a different password" isn't limited to exchanges, but applies to forums, emails, and even pools Wink , and that some antivirus heuristics seem to hate anything that has mining code in it and isn't explicitly whitelisted.
