Probably order online. I'm thinking of getting ASROCK Z97 Extreme 4 which has 3 PCI-Ex16 slots, selling for RM649 : https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1459154

Need to look around some more.....

Good morning guys!!!! I'm so happy in this boring market..... I can sleep well again!

For me, I'm thinking if the market do stabilize these few days, I will buy in a bit. Damn the premium on BTC but I guess I have no choice. Will try to hunt for a good rate on the exchanges.

I still haven't started yet. Still researching and considering a good setup.

Oh, they share their screenshots and their profits? I would be interested to know their setup! Did you see them posting their rig configuration?

I have never sold any BTC before but you can do that in all the 4 MYR exchanges - Luno, xbit asia, remitano and localbitcoins. The info in the front page is about buying BTC using MYR but it works the same way for selling BTC, just reverse the process. Do take a look at the front page.

Really? So far I have no problems with either one. No choice, I have to use whichever one has the best price at that particular time.

Yeah, the exciting and fun part about mining and seeing your wallet filling up with coins.

If the local shops here have all the components I need, I would have bought everything at one go.

I'm not a specialist la. Just a lucky noob who hardforked to altcoins in february and march 2017.

USDT was 1:1 with USD until the USD withdrawal problem at bitfinex which also affected Polo. USDT dropped to about 0.91 to USD at that time. Recently, it went 1.17 (I think) to USD because of BTC crash and everybody bailing out.

Due to the different ratio, exchanges that uses USDT would show slightly different prices compared to those which deals in USD.

Take a look here : https://coinmarketcap.com/assets/tether/

If you see the 3 month chart, it was recently 1:1 until mid-april where it dipped below 1.0 and recently went above 1.0.

Average confirmation time has shot up dramatically. Take a look at the 60-days chart : https://blockchain.info/charts/avg-confirma...timespan=60days

As high as 1200 minutes!!! And that's the average!

Guys, I want to share my super duper mobile miner. 12345 MH/s capable of generating 1.5 BTC per day.



Haha, joking joking. This is my mobile trading platform when I'm away from home - my new Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016). Bought specifically for cryptocurrency trading.

Why a tablet? Compact and easy to bring about. No adapters like notebooks. Charger can use any android charger so if your phone is android, need only one charger.

Forgive the ugly OTG connector and dongle for the wireless mouse. I'm planning to buy a bluetooth mouse and keyboard combo that will directly connect to the tablet's bluetooth.

For internet, I just went to maxis to apply for multi-sim support. RM 15/month additional to my maxis package which allows me to share data on my principal line (an additional sim card in my tablet). Of course, you have the option of using other methods depending on your preference when you're not at home:

1) Public wifi - NOT recommended
2) Tether to your phone
3) Tether to USDT

Now I can trade when I'm away!

Haha, I'm not a trader.

Boy, such a boring market. Good good. Can do something else besides staring at blinking numbers and charts.

If I understand the charts correctly, it just means that bullruns usually needs correction before going higher. Unless there are very bad news, it looks like BTC is still trending upwards.

Thx for your vote of confidence but I'm not that type of guy.

Expensive. It's just for trading. RM 759 including extended 2 years warranty + freebies. 7 inch size easy to carry around. Mouse and keyboard at convenient places, otherwise just tablet on the go. No need brick adapter with long tangled wires. Perfect!!!!

The problem is Nobody can time the market. Well, maybe the pros but I think luck still plays role.

Good morning guys! Looks like cryptocurrencies are getting back to their usual selves.

Very slow recovery. Still waiting to sell off my deep sea fishes and keep BTC.

Great to see Stratis doing well. I checked my records, first bought in a bit at 11600 and then some on the rise.Now 166870. That's already a 1400+% gain not counting BTC multiplier effect. Only in cryptos can you get such gains.

wengherng, please do the honours. Just start the thread without any topics and put "in progress/reserve". You can add post and fill in whatever you can and I will reserve the rest of the post for future add-in. Let's make the front page properly this time. I will probably need to attach the pictures to a website like photobucket so that every time can just copy the whole thing and the photo will automatically display itself. Once the front page is done, then only put in the topic name.

If you just want to do the first post is also fine, I can do the rest.

The only thing I foresee is that, like cryptocurrencies, volume in this thread is increasing and will hit 2500 post quite fast......

Let me get this straight. You can't wire MYR to your tether account but can use EURO, USD or YEN?

Your information is valuable. Do you mind if I put this information as a guide in the front page? Of course, with proper mention of contributors.

ETH approaching 200. So are you selling some ETH?

Haha, just joking. In normal times, I would say HODL(!) but this aren't normal times huh? In fact, it is not even abnormal... these are crazy times! I guess it is good to take some profits when you're ahead.

For me.... not so sure but I think I will still stick to my strategy unless something goes wrong.....

Yeah, I noticed that. I quickly did instant bank transfer but still not in. Looks like too late to grab some. If I can get at that price, it will be my first purchase after exactly 3 weeks without buying any BTC.

I transferred some money to xbit at 4:45pm today. Just checked just now and it was already in. Straight away bought BTC at the price of RM9,640.

Yeah, luckily I checked. Straight away bought as BTC price was around RM9.5k.

Anytime. I wasn't expecting the funds tonight but it still went through. Probably went through much earlier......

Good morning cryptoworld!

BTC really not looking good. Transferred my BTC from xbit to Polo last night and it is still unconfirmed this morning!!!!

Again, nobody can tell you that. You bought before everything crashed. Unless there are really bad news, I would probably just hold it. Do have a strategy to cut loss though.....

Cool. Will try later.

Yeah, me too. A bit hesistant to start mining now mainly because I can't easily get the parts here in Sibu.

To the stars!!!!

As far as I know, you can't use MYR to buy ETH. You still have to buy BTC and send to an exchange that can use BTC to buy ETH.

Great! Thx for the info. Trying to source the parts now and that's really what is holding me back. See how it goes.

What in the world is gwei??!!??

Have to put the disclaimer, later get blamed.....

Hmmm.... I've been letting my coins go on auto-cruise for some time now. Think I better start researching which coins to pick up or add again.....

Hah! Looks like xbit deposit processing time is actually not during office hours. There's a specific time including saturdays : http://xbitasia.com/index.php/fund-your-xbit-asia-account

If you have a lot, better keep in hardware wallet. More info on the first page.

OMG! So many terminologies! At least learn something new today.

I have no idea at the moment. Have been only doing swing trades with my existing coins. Will need to start reading crypto news again and hang out in trollbox too.....

No recommended value. It is up to you to decide depending on how comfortable you are with leaving your coins on exchanges. There are also other ways of keeping your coins but the best is still a hardware wallet.

A forumer here uses "Rule of 5" meaning if the value you hold is 5x more than the value of a hardware wallet, it would be good to get one. Hardware wallets cost about RM300-400 at the moment.
