The fact that crypto markets are still trading today shows a massive shift from mainstream. Nevermind 24/7, it's true 365 trading, never stops.

Funny how when something dips a bit, it crashed or tanked, and when it goes up, it's shooting for the moon.

And it seems some time recently BCN has quadrupled in value LOL
You holding?

Actually most of my alts are doing well / holding value against BTC. Think this thread might get busier next year as more new people discover there's more than just Bitcoin.

Hoping for the LTC push, invested in that and mining ETN in the background.

Yeah I have a few thousand. Very easy to mine. I don't think it will ever amount to much though.

And, do you think Fear Of Forks have subsided, i.e. no significant drop in BTC value due to the upcoming fork ?

EDIT: Possibly the opposite ? This is a high profile fork and people may want to increase their BTC holdings.

Repost from "Cryptocurrency Collectors Club" FB page:

Did you notice that Binance daily volume is now higher that Bittrex's?
With that, BNB (Binance Coin), which is used to reduce fees on the exchange, has been through a huge bull run for 3-4 days now. But Binance ban in China hasn't even been lifted yet.
I believe that with their referral program and the user number growth, BNB may soon reach a new ATH with people (new traders or not) buying it to reduce their fees while trading.

What do you guys think? Short term pump or long term uptrend?

BNB hit over $10 (nearly $11). Currently 0.00060602 BTC

Possible dip incoming

the Cryptobud channel on Youtube released their top 6 most profitable Altcoin predictions for 2018 with a definite bias towards the privacy and platform tokens.

Your comments / discussion regarding these predictions would be appreciated.


1) Dash - privacy coin - microtransactions - instant step feature - predicted to rise from $1200 to $3000 during 2018.

2) Monero - privacy coin - limited supply - decentralised - nobody owns it - predicted to rise to $3000 in 2018.

3) Stellar - platform based coin - riding on the coattails of Ripple - IBM connection - good use case for this tech on the African continent

4) Ripple - increased 6x in value from 20 cents US to $1.20 during 2017Dec - partnership with banks and American Express - its high price is not sustainable - long term HODL - predicted to rise to $5 in the next several years.

5) EOS - platform - industry backing - one of the best ICO's of 2017 - ICO expires end Jan 2018 - many people buying Eos until then

6) Stratis - undervalued - caters for blockchain technology in FinTech companies

Crypto Investor speculates on what will be the next Verge during 2018 ?

*(Verge having gained circa 4000% during 2017Dec)


They look at the following possibilities, noting that the lower any particular altcoin is on the market cap rankings, the Greater the investment risk becomes - greater opportunity for triple digit percentage gains, but also greater chance for the coin to tank to zero:

NAV (Navcoin) ranking 98th - market cap USD 150 Million

ZEC (ZeeCash) ranking 23rd - a lot of opportunity - has performed really badly upto now - however opportunity for a pump is much smaller

DASH

XMR

ZEN (ZenCash) ranking 103rd - one of the top performers over the last 3 months

XZC

PIVX

KMD (Komodo)

Anyone know the withdrawal times at Altcointrader. How long does it take to Fnb? How often do they do withdrawals? Once a day, once a week?

Those were all asked in a support ticket to them with a very vague answer.
