Yes, do not put eggs in one basket. No matter which market is risk, there is a greater volatility in the encrypted market, so I think how to manage their own funds is more important than investment.

I think it depends on how much you want to earn, if you want to get a little profit then between short-term or medium-term investments, and if you want to get more profits then long-term investment.

The King need to rise first after that it'll be the turn of the ruler. LOL. I believe it's extremely straightforward, if both ETH and BTC increment a similar time so all other token will be dumped to hellfire. However, in the event that BTC rise just, it'll be unique, all other alt/token won't be influenced to such an extent. After BTC rising completed, it'll be the turn of ETH and all different altcoins

I think it's really easy to understand, if both ETH and BTC increase the same time so all other token will be dumped to hell. But if BTC rise only, it'll be different, all other alt/token will not be affected so much. After BTC rising finished, it'll be the turn of ETH and all other altcoins Smiley.

Until now ethereum prices are still under $ 300, many factors influence, more ICO projects with different types of tokens, where investors prefer instant profits rather than holding ethereum.

As we know that ETH is one of the best coins in this market and lots of people invest in that but its price is counting going down and it's not a simple thing. I think for going eth price down more blockchain system in this market. If this system will not in this market then the market will not face many problems which they face now but what should we do now this is the main thing. So just stay calm and be patience, because without having patience I think this is very difficult to run in this market without this nothing happened.

Lots of theory and lots of formula are using to increase this crypto but unfortunately, all age gone in vain and now most of the marketer are forested about this topic that price of eth is not rising even most of the crypto-coin price is going down and they all are not increasing.

WE UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS CONFUSING TO GET STARTED
If you're new to cryptocurrencies, you first step would be to find an exchange that allows you to deposit money
http://coinnews.azurewebsites.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/fiat1.png

http://coinnews.azurewebsites.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/fiat2.png

Important Note: Trading Fees gets smaller with volume. The ones listed on the table are the max range* (Maker fees are paid when you add liquidity to our order book by placing a limit order under the ticker price for buy and above the ticker price for sell. Taker fees are paid when you remove liquidity from our order book by placing any order that is executed against an order of the order book.)

Once you’ve opened an exchange account that allows fiat deposit, you can link your personal bank account with your crypto exchange account and start depositing funds to buy Bitcoins.
IMPORTAN FACTOR TO CONSIDER :
[/size]

1. Coin Pairs Available
Many exchanges offer only a handful of coins; the most popular being Bitcoin and Ethereum. There are only a handful of exchanges that offer a wider variety of coins. A more diverse option of coins available is better as it gives you more choices of coins to purchase.

2. Liquidity

Liquidity refers to the ease of buying/selling in the market. A high liquidity means that there is a huge number of buyers/sellers. High liquidity is good as it leads to better price discovery and it allows you to transact faster.

3. Security
The level and type of security mechanisms employed by an exchange is vital in ensuring that your coins are safe. Examples of good security practices undertaken by exchanges include:

a) Keeping deposits in cold storage; this means that your coins are safely tucked away offline, beyond the reach of hackers

b) Availability of 2-factor authentication (2FA) option; 2FA increases the security of your account

c) Email encryption and verification; for every transaction there will be an email sent to your account to confirm the transaction

(Read also: Guide to Cryptocurrency Security: Activating 2FA)

4. Customer Support Quality
Having a responsive customer support would save you lots of time and anxiousness, especially in a fast-paced environment. Issues on your verification process, deposit/withdrawals, funds reflection and trading orders should be solved quickly by the exchanges, or it could cost compromise you time, money and well-being.

5. Trading Fees
Low transaction fees on buying and selling would relatively prevent your margins to be eaten away, especially if you’re a constant trader. It is important to look at the fees of your exchange, to see if it’s relatively comparable to other exchanges.

6. Ease of Use
The user interface of the exchange should be easy to use and clean to avoid confusion. Having the necessary indicators at the tip of your fingers and the ease of navigating through the platform should make it easy for anyone to use the interface

I believe these users sunlitit654 (banned), MilfordGannon (banned) and annasadia (banned) copy/paraphrase/text spin the original content. They posted it in the same thread one after the other. Though it's not necessary to include, these 3 users, including the one who posted the original were reported as connected accounts here.

the most important thing is we should do research about wallet because if it is user friendly and secure then we can adapt this because that time it is safe to use also we need to check the articles properly about wallet.
The first and foremost thing we need to see is whether the wallet is a secure one and on top of that, whether it is user friendly or not. If these two criteria are fulfilled then there is no harm in going for the ones mentioned in the article.
Original:
Based on this article it looks good but before choosing or using this we need to aware of something that is this wallet is secure or not also it is user friendly or not we should think about this if this full fill this criteria then we can adapt this.

Like our real, physical monetary world where USD is the main currency in the market, bitcoin is like American dollar in the crypto market. In the real world other local currency market depends on the market of USD . in crypto market all the other coins also depends on the market of bitcoin, these all other coins are alt coin.
Original:
The post remembers my first beginning time when I was so much confused about the words and what they meant. In crypto currency the currency is compared with coins. The coins are the currency. Like our real currency world there are many currencies as USD, Australian Dollar, Euro, pound and so on. In crypto currency Bitcoin is like one of them and other coins are altcoin.

If the account is banned, that doesn't mean that he cannot log-in. He cannot post/PM or merit but he can read (idk if he receive messages, maybe only form the admins) and nothing else.

I just want to get things up, since I reported this two profile (thedarknight789 and Iyum) here (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.44119221)

Where in fact that I can still see that they're still active and can post anywhere they like in any ann thread, posting such copy-pasted posts from icobench rating page where they didn't even quote or credit the original posts/poster tho I see that their post I reported was removed.

Can any mod explain why this 2 users still can posts where plagiarism is such a huge case to get permaban on this forum?


~~~

According to bpip.org (credits to vod for this amazing site) both users got some of their posts deleted, so I guess there are some of your reported posts in it.

Like LoyceV said, it depends on which mod handles your reported post. In my experience, the most of my plag reports got banned, but some of them only got their posts/topics deleted, which is a bit frustrating,
because I invested a lot of time investigating it.

In that case, I would report both users again, 'cause they are still copy/pasting content:

Blockchain.io aims to become the biggest European exchange - by creating a bridge between fiat and crypto - and with a lot of competition and hackers around absolutely nothing can be left to chance. Everything seems to be top-notch work (encrypted cold storage, fully compliant, minimal downtime, atomic swaps, etc.).

This project will be  success,

Original: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/blochainio-wants-become-biggest-european-exhange-tim-van-der-roest/
A project with a unique domain like blockchain.io really gains attention. Although the domain was already claimed in 2012 it took quite some time before the project really came to light in the current form. To govern means is to foresee. It was for sure not something that happened overnight. Blockchain.io is the creation of people with great vision, believe and understanding of this new disruptive blockchain technology. There is a very solid team of developers and advisors on board and Mr. Pierre Noizat, the CEO of Blockchain.io and already proven to be successful with another company called Paymium, is a blockchain-pioneer since 2008.

As a cryptocurrency exchange, Blockchain.io will play a major role in the Internet of Value’s ecosystem. It will be the marketplace where cryptocurrencies will be traded against each other, a gateway to and a bridge across the multiple value networks powered by different blockchains/cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH)

~~~

Original: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/blochainio-wants-become-biggest-european-exhange-tim-van-der-roest/
In Blockchain.io’s vision the Internet of Value is the next level of evolution of the Internet.
The internet of value enables users to securely trade assets, rights, goods and services,
globally and around the clock, without the involvement of a centralized authority, or
traditional financial intermediaries, or so called ‘trusted’ third-parties.
The Internet of value is built on multiple decentralized, automated, transparent, and
secure blockchain-based value networks. Different networks operate different versions
of the blockchain, which in turn are fueled by different cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin,
Ether, or Litecoin. Each network meets the needs of certain types of transactions, such as
high-value payments or title registry, or the needs of specific trading communities, such as
a network of autonomous objects or an industry sector.
Blockchain.io as the leading exchange in the Internet of Value will enable users to trade
across all these value networks.

It depends on the Mod handling it. Sometimes they get banned, but the last time, after I spent an hour reporting 1-200 homograph spambots, most of them only had one of their posts deleted. That's a complete waste of time, and I haven't reported any homographs since.

Hmm, that's precisely what I want to avoid - single post deletions instead of banning. I seem to recall someone here (iasenko, maybe?) proposed adding a rule forbidding the use of homographs but I guess that hasn't gained sufficient traction yet. Seems like a no-brainer, though, as there is no valid reason to write an English word with one or more non-English/Unicode characters; the only possible purpose is to evade plagiarism detection.

What's the most efficient way to find homograph plagiarism? I found a post earlier that seemed like plagiarism but when I searched a phrase from the post on google it didn't find any hits, but it did suggest that several of the words were spelled wrong by underlining them with red squiggles. When I completely retyped the phrase I was then able to find at least one other exact match on the forum, so I then reported the post with the link to the other post that matched it. So, mission accomplished, but it was a pain to do.
I haven't found an easier way to do that.

I also noticed that simply quoting the post in question also highlighted several of the words as misspelled, even though they looked to be spelled correctly (e.g. - any, agency, of) and that got me to thinking that if I could merely report the use of homographs that it would save a lot of effort.
