I'm starting to think that I'll probably hold on to NXC long term. The game has definitely made good strides and I really like the direction it's headed in. If they continue working on the game, there's no telling how dope it could be a year from now. This walkthrough was definitely better than the livestream they showed before and they definitely added more to it. Being free-to-play makes it that much better, since people can try the game for free, get hooked and temped to buy things from the shop. Based on the gameplay elements I've seen, I think this'll be a good one as long as the dev team stay committed.

For those that don't know about the NXC release time, will be 4pm GMT so that's 11am EST, 10am CST. Just checked it on their Twitter.

I'll be monitoring charts to see sticks for when it begins to fall, if it does at all

Here's a trailer I made for the game. Making money aside, I'm genuinely interested in the game. gonna see if I can help them out with promotion because that's definitely where they've been lacking from my perspective.

The possibility that Bitcoin MIGHT hit the $2000+ price range?

Bitcoin is already hovering at the $1120 mark, a little less than the all time high
The market is still bullish right now, and we still have 2 weeks to go until the Winklevoss ETF decision

Check out this video fellas
This dude is like a surgeon with his technical analysis
I'm curious to know what you guys think about this.....

 

[RoomService]

10 days ago it was below a thousand

 

[LegalMoney]

BTC to $2000 wow....if the ETF happens it might shoot past that!

For BTC to be traded like stocks wouldn't they need to increase the value of one BTC to make the fractionals more valuable?

With only a few million Bitcoins I think each one has to get exponentially more valuable?

 

[Famous1]

10 days ago it was below a thousand

I bought $200 dollars @ 950..... Should have bought more.
My initial buy in was $500 at 1018 and then the shit started crashing. My first thought was get your money back while there's still some left, but my bgol brokers advise me to buy more... I did...Wish I would have went at least a Grand.. oh well.. Waiting for that next dip

based on all the research I have been doing over the past 4 days. I firmly believe that if the ETF happens, bitcoin will be at 2k per coin in 6 months and 3K in less than 18 months. There are already rumors about people who have the inside track making moves to buy more bitcoin to take advantage of the possible 300 million injection at the start of the etf and as bitcoin goes more main stream, it has a number of factors that can punch nitro into the coin ...china is already noticing what going on and the businesses and banks appear to be teaming up instead of trying to kill the coin off, they want to take advantage of it ad get ahead. add to that the etf derivatives, more anxiety about the market, I could see the predictions of bitcoin going into the 10k range in 10 years. im long on bitcoin and also dipping in with monero and holding long on ripple.
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I AM ACTUALLY PULLING FOR THE WINKLEVOSS TWINS TO WIN LIKE the bandwagon PATRIOT FANS. I WANT THE ETF TO HAPPEN SO I CAN GO ALL IN ....BC YOU KNOW WHAT THE ETF WILL SIGNAL....IT SIGNALS THE START OF ANOTHER EXPLOSION IN BITCOIN BUBBLE , ONE THAT WE SHOULD ALL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF......YOU CAN NOT STOP GREEDY MOFOS FROM BEING GREEDY....AND RIGHT NOW THEY SEEING MONEY.
I am swinging everything I can at the bitcoin bubble...bc until something better comes along to usurp its standing, I am going to ride this bitch like walmart stock in the 1980-90s.
but at least this time more black brothers are paying attention....

LETS GET THIS MONEY!!!

 

[CurtDawg]

The REAL test for Bitcoin is around the $1200 mark
That was the all time high a few years ago, during the Mt Gox exchange era
There's going to be a lot of resistance near that price point
If it can bust pass that $1200 mark in the next few days, there will be nothing stopping its momentum until the Winklevoss ETF decision

 

[Mixd]

NXC kind of worrying me, 2hrs away and no pump?

Same thing I was thinking also
Seems like Nexium might have already lost its momentum
With everyone jumping on the Bitcoin ETF bandwagon, its really throwing a monkey wrench into everything

With everyone jumping on the Bitcoin ETF bandwagon

That's two weeks away, and nothing to do with the game still having a release today. People need coins to play in the game. Whomever was part of the initial crowdfunding.

But its already 9:45am eastern time, and Nexium still has not done anything yet fam
It's not even close to the projected 10,000 price point surge mark

article doesn't say Ripple specifically, but says ING bank was behind it and they are behind the R3CEV consortium which is a major backer of using XRP.

Sooooo whats so special about this game?

 

[LegalMoney]

I think the BTC rush is killing NXC as most holders expected a pump and are now liquidating to get BTC.

My thinking is if the ETF is denied BTC will crash hard.

Then Revenge of the Alts begins.

Personally my entry at NXC is already at a small profit so I can afford to go longer.

I'm contemplating selling all my XRP for BTC.

I can always buy back XRP later but its not going anywhere soon.

It's an interesting MOBA game, think Starcraft or Halo Wars but 1v1 at the moment. You play against other players or AI, get your mothership and start gathering resources so you can not only use your abilities but also build on conquered planets to make your fleet stronger. Each captured planet has a special ability, you can build a planet up to increase your resources or give your army upgrades, that could be different types of ships added to your fleet like kamikaze ships, snipers, etc... The goal is to wipe out your opponent, do so by capturing planets (including theirs) and destroying them with your fleet. They also have event cards, which if used, can change the gameplay of the match or add interesting things to the match.

This NXC royally sucks, and it's going down now. Pissed...

lol, i'm not bothered by what it looks like now. It has definitely sank much lower before and still spiked to 12k, I'm holding. I'm in the beta for the game and it's dope to me. Like I said before, with promotion when the game goes live and if the dev team stays dedicated, this game is gonna be fire. I could just imagine the madness of playing a 3 vs 3 game in the future.

Hear you, I was just looking for a good pump and dump today... I'm like this mofo didn't even make a sizzle.

 

[CurtDawg]

I had a stop limit set
That if it dropped below 6550, then sell at 6520
The price dropped so fast.....that only half of my sell order went through
Its still sitting there right now
Damn NXC price dropped to 6450 real quick

It should come back up, it is outside the Bollinger Bands, so should have a jump up, how much is the question, I don't know...

 

[CurtDawg]

Yea I still have about $150 dollars worth of NXC left
I was hoping for it to at least make 1 big push up into the 7000+ range, so I can dump it for minimal loss/gain
But its not doing much of anything

In the back of my mind, I keep thinking to when me & @LegalMoney bought some NXC for around 5400
This was a couple weeks ago
Sooooo I'm thinking once this hype wears off, this coin MIGHT have the POTENTIAL to drop back down to that price point again

I'm just not sure which way its going to go in the next few hours, up or down?

 

[Tha Great Muta]

So how can we make money off of these Bitcoin ETFs??? Just stack up on BTC???

 

[CurtDawg]

Golem (GNT) is pumping right now



Edit: It went back down, nevermind

 

[LegalMoney]

NXC getting hammered!

That's obviously where a lot of money was being stashed from BTC.

 

[CurtDawg]

So how can we make money off of these Bitcoin ETFs??? Just stack up on BTC???

No one really knows what will happen
This bitcoin/altcoin market is so hard to predict
People are hoping BTC keeps going up, past the $1200 all time high, then up some more until the March 11th ETF decision
BUT all it takes is for Donald Trump to say some dumb shit in the news, for everything to come crashing down
I already lost a bunch of money with GNT & NXC, this week
So I'm probably the last person you want to follow for advice right now, LOL

As Bitcoin Becomes New Gold, Ex Fed Chairman Calls for Return to Gold Standard
​

Former US Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan calls for a return to the gold standard as Bitcoin becomes positioned to take gold’s place as the world’s reserve store of value.

Greenspan, who was the chairman of the US central bank from 1987 to 2006, presided over a period of “easy money policy” of low interest rates to provoke economic growth. This policy drew criticism from business leaders such as Steve Forbes for weakening the dollar and pushing commodities such as gold past its 12-year moving average in 2004.

Since retirement, however, Greenspan has come out in favor of a more sound monetary policy, including a favorable view of gold as the world’s reserve currency:

“I view gold as the primary global currency. It is the only currency, along with silver, that does not require a counterparty signature.”

Sound money as a defense against looming stagflation
Last year, Greenspan had adopted a similar position on currency, urging a return to the gold standard to combat a potential future hyperinflation. At that time Bitcoin’s place was in a much less certain spot, yet still offered competition to gold.

According to Greenspan, the national debt in the US would never have reached such untenable levels if the country had adhered to the gold standard:

“We are already in danger of seeing the ratio of federal debt to GDP edging toward triple digits. We would never have reached this position of extreme indebtedness were we on the gold standard because the gold standard is a way of ensuring that fiscal policy never gets out of line.”

He notes that at the same time, the risk of inflation is beginning to rise. In the United States, the unemployment rate is below five percent, which has put upward pressure on wages and unit costs generally.

“Demand is picking up, as manifested by the recent marked, broad increase in the money supply, which is stoking inflationary pressures,” Greenspan continues. “To date, wage increases have largely been absorbed by employers but if costs are moving up, prices ultimately have to follow suit. If you impose inflation on stagnation, you get stagflation.”

Bitcoin is poised to become the new gold
As the need for sound money and a solid store of value grows, Bitcoin is increasingly set to replace gold as a hedge against uncertainty.

Michael Dunworth, CEO of Blockchain-based financial transfer service Wyre, believes that Bitcoin will replace gold and US dollars as the world reserve currency over the next 20 years, due to what he believes to be a superior store of value and usability.

Vinny Lingham, the CEO of identity protection service Civic.com, believes that Bitcoin will see a price of up to $3,000 this year, leapfrogging gold. At a current value of over $1,100, very close to its all-time high of $1,155 back in 2013, that prediction may not be very far off.

BTC is seeing a lot of resistance around the $1135 mark
The all time high for this year was about $1140, that happened the first week of January
This is the first major hurdle
We have to push past this 1st hurdle, get past this $1140 price point, and hold steady above it

The 2nd hurdle is the $1200 mark
The all time high ever, was $1216, that happened four years ago, on the Mt Gox exchange
Once we past that, it will probably be in the mainstream (financial) news, and the media exposure should cause BTC to keep on going up
But this needs to happen before the Winklevoss ETF decision
B/c if the ETF decision fails, Bitcoin is going to drop a couple hundred dollars
Get ya popcorn ready

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

Thank Goodness I'm able to buy shit and forget about it this bitcoin surge has been REALLY REALLY good to me. I bought an undisclosed amount a few years ago that's paying off over this past week like CRAZY

Truthfully I don't buy the MtGox high, think this is truly a better measure of the market cause there is a real force behind things today. Back then, they were the only exchange (if I'm not mistaken) and a lot was manipulated by the owner as well. "Today", is a major diff, cause BTC is utilized in so many other places today. The people and community today is huge. It's like stopping a cruise ship as opposed to a little row boat back then. Every time I think the price is going to dip like some are saying, it just pushes right back up to this over 1k high. It's too hard to stop it plus so many exchanges available to buy it.

Well yea I agree with what you are saying, about the significance of it
But my point was, I'm looking at the MtGox price, as just a raw number, a hurdle, just a talking point news reporters will use
If BTC crosses over that "all time high" hurdle, it will get mainstream coverage

Feel you, but all the charts that I saw many others charting on TradingView, they see it hitting 1400 very soon in the near future, think I saw about May, nothing to do with any news like the ETF stuff. Just following charting indicators and the whole emotions that are being displayed. Some say it will dip to about 900-850 then take off to 1400. Looks like it could, but as always, we will see.
