Hi Guys, I'd like to answer any of your questions on Crypto Currencies ฿ |⧫ |Ł

What’s the cheapest way to buy bitcoin (

 

Purchasing on a peer to peer exchange you can avoid exchange mark ups and can do a trade with really fair pricing. However it is slower. Local Bitcoin is another way and similarly is slow.

 

How much do you have to receive or sell in bitcoin to have to pay taxes on it? Recently started using BTC with coinbase. If I’m not mistaken PayPal is 200 transactions / 20k $ then you have to file.

What made btc jump from $4k to recent +7k? @Joshi

 

Great question, a number of influences can be attributed as the cause of btc rise.

For one, we are seeing the end of the longest bear market.

What is your opinion on block lattice technology vs blockchain?

 

Interesting question,

One problem that blockchains currently face is that, in their current form, they do not scale. For example, the Bitcoin blockchain is only able to process 7 transactions per second. This is in contrast to existing centralized payment systems such as VISA, who have the capacity to process around 2000 transactions per second. So far, many different solutions have been created to try to answer the blockchain scalability problem. One proposal is to implement second layer scaling solutions to blockchain. These second layer scaling solutions include, for example, the lightning network for Bitcoin. Other proposals to deal with blockchain scalability issues have been to completely remove blockchains themselves.

The limitations of the blockchain has created an opening for the the implementation of DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) based models such as Nano’s block lattice. This simple architecture is designed not only to achieve decentralized peer-to-peer payment, but to do so in an fast efficient way.


So to answer your question, Lattice tech is fast, while the existing blockchain is slow. My opinion is that as with anything, technology will always be out performed by the next big thing. Traditional Blockchain infrastructure has the "first to market" advantage which has enabled it to become a primary focus to be integrated across industries. Maybe in the coming years it will see heavy competition from different tech like Hashgraph's "Gossip Protocol" and Nano's "Lattice".

 

I love Nano especially when people start using it due to high BTC tx fees. It’s literally instantaneous and free to send. Would be great if we adopted it in this community.. a boy can dream.

 

Haha one day

 

Btc almost $9k. Whats next? @Joshi

 

I see it hit 11k pretty fast. I believe it will touch 30k by the end of the year.

 

Judging by this cryptocurrency investment rating, you may well be right Cryptocurrencies Rating 2019 based on Market Capitalization reflects current crypto market cap, cryptocurrencies prices and crypto exchange rates . In particular, if we consider the growth of cryptocurrency for the long term. Depending on the fluctuations of the market of altcoins and cryptocurrencies relative to it, the price of bitcoin may well be that.

 

For sure

#1 btc price in next 2 month. your opinion
#2 good crypto investment atm. your opinion
@Joshi

 

Price for next month IF we leave the gates at 10k this month, would probably be 15-18k.

A good investment would be btc (it's still low) also as for alt coins check out BTR they are going to enter LAtoken

Bither ICO has been launched - Get 3 tokens by joining one ICO

Also Libra coin (face books coin) it's going to be great.


I'll keep you posted on a few more once they are at a promising stage.

but over all you can invest in any of the major currencies and see them appreciate as the bull run begins.
