101  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price is directly proportional to Market Cap? on: April 19, 2018, 10:14:35 AM
market capitalization is a wrong factor to be used for cryptocurrencies. it is used for stocks and to show the value of a company and it is wrong to use it for cryptos!

the way it is calculated is to multiply supply and price so when price goes up, market cap goes up with it. and the same way as the supply goes up or is already huge the market cap is also going up with it.
I know what you try to say, when price of some random coin goes up, for example because of pump&dump group or some announcement, this doesn't mean that value of that cryptocurrency is current high price multiplied by circulating supply, because only a fraction of all coins were bought at that highest price but most people are not prepared to pay the same price so it's wrong to valuate the entire cryptocurrency at the same price.

I partly agree with this, but I don't understand why you think that this is ok for valuating company, while it is not for cryptocurrency. I think it's very similar. Successful companies like Apple or Tesla also have "overpriced" stock price because people believe in those companies and their future potential, demand for stocks is big and price goes up. The value of company is calculated based on current price of one stock, again, multiplied by number of stocks. Which is not realistic if you ask me. Ok, company has some physical property like real estate and machinery, but the value of company is few times more than value of that property alone.
Also companies create new stocks sometimes, just like circulating supply of cryptos is slowly growing.

My conclusion would be that market cap could be misleading indicator sometimes (especially during rapid growth - pump&dump) but when price of one cryptocurrency is relatively stable, market cap is about as important information about crypto value, as it is relevant for company value.

Some industries and companies will adapt and transform themselves, maybe find different niche or even incorporate blockchain technology into their business. Other will try to fight against bitcoin and blockchain but that will most likely backfire to them and they will lose the battle.
Beside the obvious sectors like banking and traditional stocks market, there are also other companies that will be affected by takeover from blockchain, for example credit card providers like MasterCard, prepaid coupons for anonymous payments like PaySafeCard, Neteller... Big data analyzing companies...

So users will be able to sell their health record to research institutes, clinics and so on. And daily data like blood pressure, hearth beat, body temperature...
The only concern I have, is how are you going to make sure that this data don't fall into the wrong hands? I think you should regulate, who can buy this data and under what conditions (data protection...)
104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO scanner on: April 18, 2018, 05:43:02 PM
I think some ICOs are missing on http://icoscanner.io/
For example Kelta, which has collected more than 10,000 ETH and is ending in 32 days.
XYO Network is claiming to have raised more than 40,000 ETH.
And than there is Morpheus Network, and Ice Rock Mining and many more which should be on top of the list.

I didn't participate in airdrops and it's too late to join now... But I'm interested in DeepOnion anyway. Especially because the airdrops are about to finish and I expect DeepOnion to get listed on one of the top 10 exchanges by volume. And we all know what that could mean.

Before I invest, I want to make sure in which phase is your feature DeepSend. If you put so much emphasis on privacy and anonymity, then you absolutely need that feature, transactions over TOR network is not enough. Otherwise people will keep using Monero. If I understand correctly, at the moment I can't send DeepOnion transaction in a way I can with Monero - untraceable, so that receiver can't check my address and my whole history?

Please translate your website to English.
I would like to read more about your CEO and other team members? Do they have LinkedIn or Facebook profile?
How are you going to get license for films? How are you going to convince Netflix users to switch to Cine?
107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Using old laptop for "cold storage" on: April 15, 2018, 10:40:52 PM
It may work out if its your private laptop and no one else has access to it, otherwise i will recommend you to use a physical wallet, they are more secure and personal.

Yeah, but he is using an "old" laptop.

What if his old laptop is infected with a rat? or any other shit that maybe can compromise his bitcoins/coins that he is going to store?

I would prefer to spend $100 and buy a ledger wallet.

If you format hard disk of that laptop and freshly install operating system, then there will not be any malware or viruses. Some coins don't have wallets for Ubuntu. But if you have such coins that are compatible with Ubuntu, I would choose it over Windows.

There is more bots coded in JavaScript. This one is on Python 3.6+, I haven't tried it but it looks promising https://github.com/gcarq/freqtrade
Maybe this one is more appropriate for you to study, because it's more simple https://github.com/yasinkuyu/binance-trader
109  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-04-15] Coinbase Acquires Decentralized Wallet Startup on: April 15, 2018, 10:00:40 PM
There are new exchanges lunching every month so Coinbase is getting more and more competition. So they need to come up with new features and innovative ideas to keep it's share of the market. The new Coinbase Ventures is a project that will definitely enrich their offer and they will not be so depended on unpredictable crypto market and ever changing daily volume which is crucial for their profits.
110  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What do you think about new Bittrex platform? on: April 15, 2018, 09:48:24 PM
I personally got angry when I logged in. It looks childish.
I also preferred old design but I don't have complains about trading itself. When people get used to something, they always dislike the changes but I think the new platform will prove to be more reliable than the old one, otherwise they wouldn't decide to change it.

That number was calculated from total trading volume on Japanese exchanges. I'm not sure if we can assume that only Japanese people trade on these exchanges. I know some Korean exchanges are open only for Korean residents but I'm not sure about Japanese exchanges like bitFlyer, BTCBOX, Bitbank, Zaif...

What is the use-case of B21 token?

On website http://www.b21.io/#/ico there is Return on investment calculated for different assets and ROI for Bitcoin is not 700% but 700x which is 70,000% ROI.

How is your coin carbon dioxide free if people will mine in countries that produce electric power from nonrenewable sources. Also, what are you going to do with money collected for Masternodes? Maybe you could plant trees to reduce some CO₂.
115  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-04-11] 22 European Countries Sign Partnership to Create Digital Single Mar on: April 11, 2018, 05:39:54 PM
22 European Countries Sign Partnership to Create Digital Single Market
Twenty-two EU member states signed a declaration to establish a European blockchain Partnership according to the European Commission website.
https://www.newsbtc.com/2018/04/11/22-european-countries-sign-partnership-create-digital-single-market/

Politicans and EU bureaucrats can only talk and sign agreements.They can`t produce any real value for the EU nations.By the way,this blockchain partnership is about adopting and using blockchain technologies to store and verify information.It`s not about creating "digital single market".For me it`s good to know that my country will participate in the agreement,but this won`t lead to an increased demand for cryptocurrencies in Europe or higher crypto prices.
Why are you so pessimistic? I think this "Blockchain Partnership" is clear signal that Europe is in favour of the technology and despite the fact that they kind of avoid mentioning bitcoin, it is clear that you can't support blockchain implementation and ban bitcoin trading at the same time.
One purpose of this signed partnership/declaration is to "avoid a fragmented approach". I understand this in a way that they will regulate ICOs and other aspects of blockchain together and this probably means that there will be no drastic measures like banning crypto exchanges and so on.

On Facebook you can watch video recordings of European Blockchain Summit 2018 which was held in Slovenia. One of speakers was Ethereum Co-Founder Joseph Lubin.

What just happened?? Drop by almost 4% in 15 minutes. Now that is some big manipulation. Nice and slow climbing for the last two days and then comes this dump and we will need another two days to recover from it.

119  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I do not believe ico anymore on: April 09, 2018, 07:29:05 AM
i invested in 3 ico but they all make me uprooted.
1. ATFS
2. BEZOP
3. LEDU
and i think this ico causes bitcoin and etherium prices to drop.never trust again to ico.
I also experienced the same thing with you

I invest in some ico but everything is not developed and not in accordance with the roadmap

certainly ico is a scam and I'm tired of waiting

let alone coupled with the current market conditions that are experiencing a decline
And still you participate in signature campaign of an ICO. That seems kinda dishonest to me. If you don't trust no ICO anymore, then don't promote them.
