I've been buying coins since 2012 and it seems more difficult than ever to keep up with coin fundamentals and technicals.  I'm thinking about building a site but wanted to see if others share this problem. I want to make good trades just as much as the next person, but it seems difficult to wade through all of the information now days. Maybe I just am reminiscing the Gox days and less than a handful of coins to follow.



Yeah, I know what you mean. The annoying thing about this influx of new coins is that they reduce the demand on the old coins, which isn't good for traders.

Not difficult. 95% can be discarded after a 1 minute look into the specs. Most coins i'm not looking at longer than 5 minutes to know what trash it is. Only maybe 5% of launches are worth looking at closer.

Yes, Unfortunately few peoples have that visual acuity.

I also do like user posted above you, but tend to miss out quite a few times. There's no way of knowing what can bring profit for sure. But most are indeed junk coins.

The one key difference is if your in the US stock market and you get caught
committing crimes such as "Insider Trading" then you go to fucking JAIL !

In Crypto ?

You cry FUD and cash out and laugh your ass off.. then do it even more.

That shatters the silly gay little notion of "similarity" to "stocks"  Roll Eyes

I have said that probably 100's of times and i can count on one hand
when another guy has brought up this glaring serious point..
What i see is a nation of Crypto profiteers who are hell bent on denying real reality.
If I say that for the 623rd time they will all simply ignore me and pretend i didn't even say it.

You guys are 90% mostly scammy roaches ..no offense to user named roach Wink
You are not interested in the slightest in reality.. just pushing your scam coin angle.
You are all Crypto-Snake Oil sales men up there on stage making bold claims..
And as soon as i say that *yet again* i see you on stage looking at me with an angry smirk
then watch as you mutter on about your ICO scam etc..
I know you scammy little cunts here me loud & clear but i expect NO REPLY.. just more denial.

Who are you bullshiting ?
The *new user* audience you think you are addressing that comes here to read this crypto-sermon?
Or are you really just bullshitting yourselves trying to mentally justify
your own centralized exchange ICO shitcoin profiteer greedy moron antics ?

What i get from all this is you are counting on the lowest common denominator of intelligence.
You are speaking to the retarded moron dregs that come here clutching money from their bank account
..those that sift through these topics wondering if they should buy scam coins for profit.
You know you can't convince the smart ones..
They would simply disregard all those idiotic shit-coin Shill rabble and do their own homework
..you all know that.. so what you are doing is preying on the stupid & gullible
..and GREEDY !

And your only tactic or tool in your toolbox is to re-post the same stupid fraudulent shitcoin shill commentary
MORE TIMES than people like me who post valuable and unbiased intelligent comments.
The tactic is essentially to bury the truth with a thick layer of scammy retorts defending shit coins.
To try and widdle away at the truth occasionally posted by seeding doubt and sprinkling on bits of nonsense..
..pile it on Shitcoin aficionados's
But i am not planning on going anywhere.. i will re-post my tangible & quantifiable point ENDLESSLY !
You are not going to get away with being shitcoin predators preying on the vulnerable
like sleazy leeches hoping to turn a buck off the next poor sap who comes here and buys your bags
..then gets stuck taking a loss (on a centralized shitcoin exchange)

When that is all this bullshit amounts to it makes it all a scam reminiscent of a digital Pyramid Scheme.

I've been buying coins since 2012 and it seems more difficult than ever to keep up with coin fundamentals and technicals.

No real difference to trading stocks then.

Also it is an opportunity - easier for interesting coins to be overlooked by the masses but can still be spotted by those willing to put in hard work and diligence.
I think there's a world of difference.   You can analyze the businesses behind the stocks and determine if they're worth buying--with crypto you can't.   If you mean technical analysis,  then yeah they're similar.  I can't even begin to keep up with all the new issues of shitcoins, much like I can't keep track of all the stocks.  I don't do either one professionally.  I kind of just watch the action on yobit and dabble here and there.

So what is the demographic for any potential site you are considering ?
Investards hoping to rub the greedy mitts together like Mr Burns ?
Drifting with their Shelby all the way to the bank ? (like Cryptsy co-founder Marshall Long)
Or *REAL* crypto supporters ?

Reality check guys real supporters care next to nothing about BTC trade pair prices etc.
We would simply accumulate coins and worry about what their worth later when the coin has real world adoption.

Real Crypto supporters.

I think forum should be divided a bit more. not only  Alternate cryptocurrencies , but divide altcoins by their technology and put them in different parts.  Like one would be PoW, other PoS or hybrid of PoW/PoS  third for assets fourth for ICO.  I am sure many of you would know better to group them.
It would just a bit crystallize things for those that are not here from beginning or dont spend all day thinking of new coins Tongue

I think it's up to you you have to to many coins to follow and protect your investment,you need to limit your basket of coins if ever you find your investment is turning to useless coin that is the time to get more additional coins but if you have a system and you are full time traders and investor of altcoin ,then you will not have that much problem..

"Have a system" ? What illegal Crypto gambling ?
What a joke..  Roll Eyes

You profiteers investards need to get the fuck out of Crypto.

ICO after ICO is tiresome but still exciting to see how much each coin have grow since the time you invested to it.

You may just have to choose which of these coins has a better potential though and invest more to it. I did invest to all actually but I lost interest to some after the dumpers dumped and move to the next ICO.

"GROW" ?

You mean the ICO price per Digital Pyramid Scheme token traded on central exchanges paired against BTC ?
Sorry my little IPO scam coin aficionado that is NOT growth.
That is a what is called a Pyramid scheme.

@OP
YES of course which is why i stopped caring looooong ago.
When SCRYPT cloning got big that was it for me.
And why may i ask if your a veteran from 2012 doing this are you using a noob account ?
This is s suspicious sketchy thing.

Reality check ICO coins are scams.
Google search what a Pyramid scheme is or do i have to do it for you and post the results ?

looks like you need this...

HOW TO GIVE YOURSELF AN ENEMA

An enema is a great way to stimulate a bowel movement.  It will not cleanse the entire intestine nor will it condition the muscle.  However, it can bring instant relief when you are “in a bind”.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED
• An enema bag.  You can obtain this in any pharmacy.
• K-Y Jelly or any edible oil. This is used to make insertion of the rectal tube easier and more comfortable.
• Something to hang the bag if self-administered. The enema bag should be suspended no more than 18-24 inches above the level of the rectum.
• A good location:  the best place to give yourself an enema is on the bed or in the bathroom either lying on a rug or in the bathtub.
• A pad or heavy bath towel to be placed underneath the buttocks during the enema.
• A healthy source of water.  Your colon will be absorbing this water into your body.  Use the same water you would drink, preferably filtered or spring water.

PROCEDURE
For best results, and your own comfort, the enema should be taken while lying down.  If you will be giving the enema to yourself the first thing you should do is set up the area for the procedure. Make sure the hook is suspended at the proper height (18-24 inches above the rectum). Then place a pad or bath towel where you will be lying down. Slide the shutoff clamp to a point on the tubing where you will be able easily reach it while in position. Check this out ahead of time by hanging the empty bag and assuming the position, just to be sure.  Prepare the solution. The water temperature should be slightly above body temperature, between 98 and 105 degrees F at time of use.  You may need to heat water on the stove but BE SURE NOT TO USE HOT water that could hurt you, cool it down if necessary till it’s comfortable to the touch.   Fill the enema bag 90% full with the water.  Lubricate the rectal nozzle with K-Y jelly or oil.  Open the shutoff for a moment and allow enough solution to flow to expel the air from the enema tubing. This helps to reduce cramping. Lubricate your anal area with a generous amount of K-Y Jelly or oil. Work your index finger up into the rectum lubricating the entire interior area where you can reach.   Hang the enema bag on the hook.  Lie down in position. On the bed this should be on the left side with the left leg straight and the right knee flexed (Sim's position). Your left arm should be behind your back and if the shutoff is properly positioned you will be able to control it with your left hand. Your right hand will comfortably rest under your pillow. On the bathroom floor or in the tub, lie on your back with both legs drawn up, knees bent. Make sure you can easily reach the shutoff valve. Put a pillow under your head.

If someone else is giving you the enema you may find it more comfortable to assume the knee-chest position. To accomplish this, get on your hands and knees and then put one or two pillows underneath your chest, and lean forward on them. Turn your face sideways and rest it on another pillow, and snuggle both arms underneath. This particular position is an especially comfortable one to have an enema during pregnancy, but if you attempt it on your own the rectal tube tends to slip out and it is difficult to work the shutoff. If you do this on the bathroom floor rather than the bed, make sure your knees are cushioned by a pillow or a pad, or the pressure on them might cause knee damage.

Gently insert the rectal tube 3 to 4 inches into the rectum. Rotate or twist the tube back and forth to make for easier insertion.  Open the shutoff valve and allow the solution to flow. At the first indication of discomfort stop and wait a few moments. Then release the shutoff and allow the enema to resume. Feel free to interrupt the flow as frequently as is necessary to assist in minimizing the discomfort. Taking slow deep breaths will help, and if you feel cramping at any point "pant like a dog" with shallow quick breathing. As the enema progresses a feeling of fullness will develop. This is normal, and discomfort can be minimized by insuring that not too much solution is introduced too quickly.  Take your time.

When the bag is empty clamp off the shutoff and slowly remove the rectal tube. Remain in position and retain the solution for a while. For a maintenance enema a few minutes are sufficient, but if you are constipated try to hold it in for 5 to 15 minutes.   Go to the toilet and expel the enema. An enema seldom comes out in a single movement so stay near the toilet for one half to one hour. After evacuating, most people find it comfortable to lie on the bed in a prone position to rest for a while. Clean the equipment thoroughly and hang it all up to dry. An enema bag takes several days to thoroughly dry out, and should never be put away while even slightly wet.

TIPS FOR MINIMIZING DISCOMFORT
There are three primary reasons that cause an enema to be a more uncomfortable procedure than it has to be:

• Wrong position:  Use the positions suggested here and don’t give yourself and enema while seated on a toilet.
• Wrong temperature:  An enema solution too cool can cause excessive cramping. If it is too hot it can damage the delicate mucosa lining the bowel. Body temperature or slightly above (98-105F) is just right.
• Too much pressure:  If the bag or can is suspended too high, excessive pressure can cause severe discomfort. The bag should be just high enough to allow the solution to barely flow

TIPS FOR MAXIMIZING RESULTS
• Use a sufficient volume of solution
• Retain the solution for 5 to 15 minutes.
• Retaining the enema for a while before expelling it can significantly contribute to good results.

As soon as i came here i was quickly reminded of "priorities" and intent..

Many topics just blur the matter and ignore it.

Few people are gullible naive suckers in the classic sense.
These Investards willing to take bad risks on bad coins for the hopes of "profit"
know what they are doing.. they are not being "tricked"  Roll Eyes

The trickery is their cocky mentality thinking they can beat the house odds.
You can't.

You will be burned if not now ..then later.

Best way to scam you guys is to put a dollar in your hand ...

Adoption ?
Uhhhhhhhhhhhh duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT ?
Is that some kind crypto stock crowd funding price analysis tech trade profits term ?

To put this another way...
In the short term, cryptocurrencies are a Zero Sum Game with 2 adversaries ruthlessly competing for $$$:

Group One (Supply Side, comparable to Wall Street)

--- Dev Groups launching serial coins, Miners, Exchanges, Coin Pimps, the Crypto Media.

Group Two (Demand Side,comparable to retail traders with small etrade accounts)

--- Cryptocoin Enthusiasts and Subsistence Level Traders


Group One has MASSIVE advantages over Group Two...
And is constantly, steadily accumulating > 95% of the $$$ in the Crypto Ecosystem.

For example, the exact same East Europeans that swindled millions of $$$ from NXT "enthusiasts" and killed NXT...
Have simply moved on to launching "Waves" with the same ludicrous, crapola NXT tech...
And will easily swindle millions $$$ more from greedy minnows in Group Two.

It sounds like most people (think, know, assume) the majority of coins are not worth trading/investing. Most keep focused on a handful of coins, the coins' fundamentals and not technicals.


There used to be a good site where it had a genealogy map of found it -> http://mapofcoins.com/bitcoin

Thanks, that's what I've been looking for.

It would be really a good idea to link this website as a sticky thread so newbies get a better idea in what they're investing. Although I doubt the mods would permit it, as it seems to be a commercial website.

No worries

We had, until 2014 (?) a good thread with a list and simple classification of Altcoins.

That seems not more possible at the moment with >1000 coins. But people would be surprised by the little amount of diversity regarding code bases. Most altcoins (>90%, even 95%) are clones without substantial modifications to Bitcoin's, Litecoin's or Peercoin's code.

What I would appreciate would be a kind of "genealogy site" (or thread) pointing out the origins of every cryptocurrency. (For example: Cygnus -> Clone of Peercoin with few additions -> Clone of Bitcoin with PoS addition and new diff algorithm). So we could classify altcoins in "families" and it would be easier to see for newbies if an altcoin has really innovation or not.

I gave up on most altcoins, it's a lot easier to manage just a few different coins. I did try a lot, but I know I lose from the big whales and experienced traders.
I still have some left, but only a few dollars worth.
