Topic: Bitcoin and altcoins thoughts and forecast - summer 2017 (Read 3337 times)

So i made +400% since i posted this. Now i look a bit deeper in all crypto stuff, and looking for universal coin:
1) Fast transactions
2) Cheap transactions
3) Anonymous
4) Decentralised
5) Several proofofs of transactions
What would you guys advice to look at? I like KMD, but not sure

NEM and LISK is way to late to buy now, imho.
As i told 100 times already, it is always a good time to buy ETH and ZEC - miners mine, great teams behind, new technology, great potential.
Still dont understand, what is happening with Ripple, they continue posting old news in twitter...

Currently, I hold bitcoin and litecoin. The reason I bought litecoin and add it to my bitcoin portfolio was it current price and were I am speculating it to be at the end of this year. Am also studying lisk, though I invest in it and get about 209% returned early this month hope it move down again for me to buy cheap.

I think investing in NEM is a best choice for summer 2017 because nem has great potential, its value has doubled and still tends to rise, if this situation continues, it will probably beat xrp in the summer time, with conditions is the price of bitcoin does not skyrocket to $ 3,000. Now is the perfect time to buy more NEM. The team of strategic management and development of nem is working very actively, hopefully in the summer they will come up with new strategies

Dump has not finished yet. Don't be hasty

very smart specu;ations my friends

It was perfect time to buy NXT after this big drop.
Ripple is 95% correlated with Bitcoin, that is not good.
ETH and ZEC still my favourite.
Could make so much money on PIVx and Lisk after dump, but didnt have free money, i knew they will make fastest comeback.

I have read about NEM, that it is popular in Asia. As of it's feature - it has POI alghorithm that is kinda different from other's top coins. I wanted to buy it, but didnt have enough money to invest. As for now, i dont think it is time to buy ANY coin. Only if you buy really longterm, still my advice would be to buy Zcash and ETH. Nem looks like a good quality product. But first i try to choose coins, that bring new features. Nem has total 9kkk supply, and same in circulation, that is much less then ripple. Written on Java and JavaScript, but i would choose full JS - Lisk. Javascript easy to understand = bigger potential to grow faster. Nem needs a big client. But in common it looks like a stable good quality tech.
What i do now - i do same like you - read charts. I had Monero, Litecoin, REP, sold them with plus and dont know how to invest now. Dont want to buy anything of this again. Lazy coins. I would leave REP, but i sold it at a good price.
Oh, also i have big investment in NXT. In Q3 they will make a snapshot of NXT accounts and share IGNIS (token of child chain in ARDOR network). Thinking of buying more NXT on free money, but i dont like holding everything in 1 basket.
What would i do if i had for example 10 000$, that i am not scared to loose, i would buy zec and eth 50/50 and forgot about this investment for 2-3 years.
If we talk about this summer, and if you want to buy now, maybe Siacoin and Round is your choice...(maybe lisk?) Dunno, i feel like this 2 gonna rise and scyrocket more!
I really hope Ripple is not a big scam, cant believe banks would cooperate with such companies. If not this latest non understandable shit with arbitrage and big selling loads, i would still invest in ripple.

What about XEM, do you have any thoughts on that coin? I think some coins now are retracing, but I don't have any proofs of that aside from trying to read the charts. What other coins have you invested on?

Well, i was right now in 4 positions that skyrocketed. I doubled my investment in 1 month, but i made a mistake to reinvest some in ripple. Dunno what is happening there, with this arbitrage thing. Korea and Japan buying at 0,4, eu and us selling 0,3. That shit isnt normal and is not positive for future of this coin. Looks like a gambling toy in the hands of big guys...

that tells you how much hot air is in this thing and how far it can fall.

but even so 350,000 is a very good number for any alt, even though most of those must be duplicate accounts from the same people.

and underestimating bitcoin could prove to be an expensive mistake. this entire alt bubble was sparked by the etf not going through and if there was no scaling problem no alt would be where it is today. that tells you how influential it still is and what might happen if its issues were solved.

Can anyone tell the difference between Augur and Gnosis? Why totally the same thing has such a big difference in price?

https://xrpcharts.ripple.com/#/accounts - have just found this...
Damn it is bad, tell me it is not... (coz i bought a lot at 0,3$)
Only ~350 000 accounts created in ripple network? WHAAAAT? With this market cap?

XRP, ETH and STEEM will shine this summer.

1 month after my investment, and i was totaly right about ripple. ETH and ZEC on a ride too today. Well, bitcoin skyrockets too, that was my mistake. Still think litecoin and monero going to go down soon or at least they will just not move anywhere, dont think that is good for someone.

1) 1 june coming with australian news, think BTC going to grow more.
2) Ripple with its distribution's lock will go 1$ imho, and i think 1$ is cheap
People say buying XRP is more like buying assets of ripple company, not buying coins. Then think about it, look at coinmarketcap and imagine what a price of 1 asset should be of such company with total 55kkk assets this 4 years at least.
3) Evryday i sit in Zcash chat and look what people say, ask some questions too, i think Zcash is a long term investment. Most of all coins atm i believe in Zcash actually. But i dont expect price boom in the next 3-6 months
4) Any of you guys know when ETh goes PoS?

I am totally aware what Monero is and how anonymous it is.  Monero is now way most anonymous crypto currency in existence. Half year ago was more anonymous than 99.9999%  Now with Ring-CT is by far most.   After next autumn fork it will be even more. And with Kovri you will not need to use TOR anymore.

Anonimity depends of user if he does not care about it his transactions will get revealed sooner or latter no matter how much options Monero gives him.  There is not 100% anonymity in Crypto and will never be. But I guess that is more philosophical theme.  But my statement stand and you will not find any serious cryptographer to disagree with me. Monero is now way most anonymous crypto currency in existence.

Monero is the true anonymous coin, and one of the probably 5 or so coins that will be left in the future when cryptocurrencies blow up all over.

You're so wrong with the Zscam shit

So... you are suggesting zcrash is more anonymous than monero?
LOL good luck.

Zcash is currently way less anonymous compared to Monero because nearly all transactions are public and nobody actually uses their anonymity feature. That means that their anonymity set is just too small to provide privacy.

Thx. But yes. I am talking about 1 year investment now. And Litecoin seems like they not gonna "boom". They go slow, bringing nothing new to crypto.

Hey, wtf. I was talking EXACTLY about privacy of crypto-technology. And dont lie, monero is not so secure as you say. Read some monero forums, even there, they were talking, that world needs smth like Zcash technology.


Ha-ha. You didnt follow me) Friend told me bout ETH couple mnth ago, before it went x5, i ve started to dig and i wrote what i found. BTW, i asked couple of my friends about crypto. After a week we met and they have found almost the same. Everybody talk about ETH, Zcash, Litecoin. Less go deeper to low ccmc. But i am talking about network effect. You start reading crypto - first you want to buy is litecoin and maybe eth. Maybe there are more news in Russia about Zcash, dunno.

I want to know, anyone, who is in crypto about couple of mnths, what did you buy?
