Hello guys, just wanna ask about Luno wallet , about Luno wallet is it good to fund the account ?
*
Luno is not too bad, or you can also try XBit Asia, both are pretty good local exchanges for bitcoin trading.
However, one word of advice, please do NOT store your bitcoins (or any other cryptocurrencies) on online exchanges, aside for a small amount that you intend to use for trading purposes.
Use offline storage like paper wallets or hardware wallets instead.

On the site, using conventional two weeks shipping to my doorstep.

Holy smokes it's now RM500 with UPS express.
(Figures, their Hong Kong stock has been exhausted)

Try looking for a seller around you or organize a bulk purchase.
*
I'm not in Malaysia at the moment, and from where I am now, I can still get the item delivered to my doorstep at about RM390, so it's not too bad.
The only problem is that I have to wait for 3 weeks delivery from France.

Was looking at this, from amazon. Want to get it together? Still haven't place my order.

*
The deals look pretty good, but I am not in Malaysia now.
Anyway, it seems they don't need bulk purchase, and the delivery is free anyway, so you can go ahead and place your own order with them.

which platform you guys use to trade? which one is easiest to deposit and withdrawal?
*
Use Luno or XBit Asia to buy/sell bitcoin.
Both allow deposits and withdrawals in Ringgit Malaysia.
Then, send your bitcoins to Poloniex for trading into other cryptocurrencies.

Ya lor. I find it so inconvenient. Also inconvenient to transfer and email them and wait for approval.

OMG! Look at ripple!!!! Why I didnt buy more cry.gif

Damn, I just zoomed out on the Ripple historical chart.
It's lost more than 95% of its value from its all time high up until just one month ago, and is only recently picking up.
shocking.gif

imagine the guys who bought XRP at 9600 sats and still waiting for higher pricing.
now that's a big pain.

I'd be pretty messed up too, if I were to lose 95% of my hard-earned money just like that.
You'd need the price to go up by 20x just to recoup your original investment.


QUOTE(kmarc @ Mar 31 2017, 12:47 PM)
Ya lor, when it went down, I was thinking of adding but I thought only Japan bank involvement so not so great. I think the spike now is because MUFG bank, apparently the 3rd largest Japan bank, just announced acceptance of ripple tech.

Thinking of whether to buy on the rise.

Wengherng, I cannot see the future but if you ask me, I'm putting my bet on SC. This is my dark horse coin and if the developers can make it work, it will be at the level of Storjcoin and maidsafe in the long term. Again, I'm a paranoid investor and I don't dump everything in. Nibbling a bit on the rise as I have so many coins to nibble. biggrin.gif Just a bigger nibble for SC. As you know, I'm spreading my funds across more than 20 types of coins. You don't have to follow but do consider getting a bit. My 0.0002 BTC opinion. wink.gif (but if lose money don't scold me!!! tongue.gif)
*
I currently have ETH, BTC, NAV and DCR (this one is purely speculating, and currently I am in the red on this one) and am not a big fan of holding too many different coins as I don't have the time nor energy to keep up with the latest developments and news on all of them.
Why do you bet on SC? Any specific reason or reasoning behind your selection?

luno does not support ETH tho, you have to bitcoin and convert to ETH which the fess has been charged multiple times.

I don't think there is any Malaysian online exchange that can allow you to trade directly from ringgit malaysia to ETH.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the price you buy in?

Last night a lot of altcoins were hit after BTC went up. Not too sure why BTC going up when it should be going down......  hmm.gif
*
I think I got some NAV at around 0.00090 (so still in the green for me) and DCR at around 0.0128 (way in the red).
I've already set automatic sell orders for them, so I'll just forget about them for now and let them sit.

QUOTE(jack2 @ Apr 1 2017, 01:36 PM)
I saw my my friend is setup up one place for his mining.. It seems it is profitable for him... Otherwise, he won't setup a new place (like room) and have many instances..

Really can do ah?
I am thinking to do also but need people to join venture together.
*
What coins is your friend mining?
Some of the altcoins are still profitable at the moment......although if you ask me, the returns from mining are not really worth the trouble, when compared to just trading the actual coins on the exchange.

Waw! Bitcoin just has to increase 5% and altcoins gets a bloodbath. Would be a good strategy to exit some altcoins the next time nearing resolution of bitcoin's problem. XRP surprisingly holding up quite well.

In other news, my fun coin, pinkcoin, is up 133%! Lol. Never thought it will be pumped too but as always, no need fundamentals in crazy cryptoland.  rclxub.gif

Good for you!
Do you sell off your altcoins when they get such profits? Or do you just keep hodling?

All these altcoins like Voxels, Foldingcoin, Blackcoin, etc...... I have absolutely no idea whatsoever what these coins are, or what purpose they serve......but they're being pumped to 25 - 40% gains in a day......incredible.

Kmarc you must be laughing yourself silly by now...... rclxms.gif
Getting richer by the day!

Is it still good time to get some ripple?

Don't think so......seems it is past the peak and might be heading down as traders are locking in their profits.
I think it will head down a bit more, if you want to buy at a better price.
But then again, I am not familiar with this coin so don't take my word for it.

Damn, all those people pumping XRP has finally crashed Poloniex.
Seems to be happening more often these days......especially during sudden exponential pumps of coin prices.
They really need to upgrade their servers.

Polo being polo.

Dash finally implodes, shame that 150 BTC shorter wasn't able to profit from this.

Ripple becoming the next mega bubble, tread cautiously.

Ether went on a flash sale. EEA announcement now set for May, great time to load up here.

What's the announcement for?


QUOTE(sirxl @ Apr 3 2017, 09:39 AM)
don't spread FUD,the site is working.
check your internet connection.

He wasn't......look at his time stamp, it was around 2:30am Malaysia time that Poloniex crashed and went offline for around 15 - 20 minutes.
A lot of traders lost huge amounts of money during that time because their short calls and many set stop limits were not called. You should have seen the frenzy and curses in the trollbox.
I was actually trying to set a transaction order myself at that very moment, and panicked when the transaction was still in process when the site crashed.
The transaction order did not go through, by the way.

Guys i notice bitstamp traded generally 3-5% cheaper than poloniex rate....

Seems like scalpers heaven to scalp base on the two price difference 😅

Not sure if it workable though.

But scalpers/arbitrarer are welcome to thinning the gap between such exchange 👍🏻😄

Actually this was something I have been meaning to explore as well.
Will have to spend some time to investigate on this.

Bought in again at the dip.
ETH is now my largest portion, around 60% of my total investments in cryptocurrencies.
It had better not fail me...!

Wait a second. I thought you were 60% BTC and 30% ETH?  hmm.gif

It was, for a time.
I have since converted some of my BTC to ETH.
But, seems most of the altcoins are not doing so well at the moment with the increase in BTC price.

Yeah, as always, unpredictable. I was hoping for BTC to drop after the failed 2nd ETF with persistent unresolved hardforking of BTC. Then Japan acceptance of BTC happened.  rclxub.gif

And now my 30% holding (bitcoin) is causing my remaining 70% to go into the red...... cry.gif

QUOTE(kmarc @ Apr 4 2017, 08:12 AM)
Actually heard about that bit on polo a few days back but didn't react as I didn't want to play the market. Looks like i need to tweak my strategy yet again. Convert to BTC on good news and convert back to altcoins or USDT on bad news.

For my minor altcoins, I'm going to try joining the pumps and dumps. A lot of opportunities to earn a quick buck which I had refrained myself from doing. I think for minor altcoins, have to follow stock market, don't fall in love with a particular stock too much! biggrin.gif

Had stopped buying BTC for a some time now. See how things turn out after the recent Japan news sink in.

However, my long term HODL plan still remains. ETH and dash!!! already in my trezor.
*
Yup, there is no need for blind loyalty in investment. Your objective is only to increase your investments and make money for your family.
So, just go with whatever that increases your profits.
I mean, I still think bitcoin is a viable investment and there is still a good chance that it will break free from the current chains of civil war, but don't lose sight of the other coins.
Right now I have BTC, ETH and XMR permanently on my holding, but am also dabbling a little into the other coins just for speculation along with the masses.

QUOTE(max_cavalera @ Apr 4 2017, 01:00 PM)
It bounce back everytime hit 3 cents twice...
The short term support level is there edi....
I think better wait for 1 day massive rally to rejoin the wagon....
Last time full course rally whrre t apprecuate 10times it values takes 3-5 days rally as well...

Yeah, just put it in the closet for a while until the next frenzy rally comes around.
biggrin.gif I'm doing the same.
