1002  Economy / Marketplace / Re: [Question] Bitcoin Quilts would you buy one? on: March 15, 2018, 11:59:09 PM
I've mistaken quilt for kilt and to think that I was looking to buy a kilt recently Cheesy  Tho, I have no idea what's a quilt. Is it for decoration purposes or? Also, if you want to you can pm me, but what's he average price? I might have something on my mind, not bitcoin related but still interested.

Feel free to send me a private message. I don't personally make these quilts a local charity group that a family member is involved with does. They range anywhere from $500-$15,000+ depending on the size, detail and work required to build it. The pokemon quilt for example took about 100 hours and than the cost of the material itself. It depends if it's hand quilted or machine which references if needle and thread by hand or done by an automated machine. A quilt similar to the pokemon in detail (not using the franchise as an example) would go for about $5,000, which sadly if you add up the hours put into it does not even equal minimum wage.

The best way to describe a quilt is like a blanket. See Wikipedia. It comes down to personal preference when it comes to using a quilt. You can hang them up on your wall, put them on your bed or even curl up under one when watching tv to stay warm. I've always personally used quilts when curled up watching tv. However, most people buy them to put on their beds or hang them up depending on their value.

I was sent this update today. What do people think?

1004  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Internet Security for Mining on: March 15, 2018, 06:14:26 PM
Is internet Security for mining a thing?

I was curious if miners use internet security to protect their location? I figured there was a chance of people being able to track back your location. I wanted to see if VPN or other security measures are common practises for miners. Most people these days use internet and other forums of security for their own home. I guess this question relates mostly to off-site mining locations.

With the news of more equipment being stolen from medium-large mining farms in Iceland and other areas there must be a demand for security side protection.
1005  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lightning is Live ! on: March 15, 2018, 05:56:19 PM
Best news of the day. It's great to see Lightning Network being used in the real world. I'm also excited to soon being able to do cross-chain atomic swaps between BTC and LTC.

there are already roughly a 1,000 nodes running Lightning software on the bitcoin mainnet. The protocol will always be open source.

As it's been said before whatever technology or industry porn gets behind it succeeds. Look at VHS (killed Betamax), Blueray (killed HD DVD) and porn was super important in starting online payments.

If porn it gets behind a specific cryptocurrency it's going to be huge.
1007  Economy / Economics / Re: Alternative investments on: March 15, 2018, 03:58:19 PM
I think it depends where you are from. Here in Canada one of the biggest booming areas for investment is real-estate. Most areas are doubling if not tripling in value in 5 years.

Diversifying your investments is really important. This holds true with the recent "crash or "correction" in the cryptocurrency market. While my crypto bags are getting super heavy I am getting income through rentals, Airbnb and real-estate value.
1008  Economy / Economics / Re: Shitcoins are necessary for the economy on: March 15, 2018, 03:34:58 PM
I agree with most of the comments here. 1000+ shitcoins are not needed, but I would like to argue that there has to be some room for growth. If all the coins were similar to BTC, ETH and NEO in value it would slow down investor money. I still think there is a negativity towards owning fractions of a coin.

I will look into the MinerGate reputation as I'm outdated on the entire cloud mining industry. I honestly might just remove Cloud Mining section.
Nothing has been done in regards to this (yet)...

I've added faucets section to the site.
You should also add "PTC" websites.

Open to other ideas.
1. Adding thumbnails for each.
2. Removing the word "Best" in the header area of each page, since you're listing everything as a whole (that has affiliate programs).

Would people be interested in a casino section?
Considering how popular they are (on this forum), you should list those as well.

Thanks for this feedback. I've noted them all.

Just some quick points. I've not played with SEO so some of the titles and wording is repetitive. This will be changed.



1010  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Genesis mining just collapse? on: March 15, 2018, 01:28:45 PM
For clarification it only looks like they have received the ban from South Carolina. "March 9th Genesis Mining was ordered to immediately cease and desist offering unregistered securities in South Carolina." Genesis Mining, Ltd. is permanently barred from participating in any aspect of the securities industry in or from the State of South Carolina.

However, it should be noted that the securities laws on South Carolina are hardly different than any other state in the United States. It should be interesting to see how this plays out.

As per

Thanks for that!

Thank you for the merit.

Does anyone know if there is a list of websites that are mining through their visitors browsers? It will be helpful too if someone will give that list.

I will start keeping a list of sites that I come across. Most of them as of recent have been cryptocurrency news sites or aggregators.

Thank you for the list. I noticed 1-2 that don't seem like the correct URL. Will update when I go through them all.
1014  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Cloud mining on: March 14, 2018, 01:58:29 PM

However, if you are looking for some insight or affiliate here are some of the following:

HashFlare

1015  Economy / Service Discussion / Browser Mining Problems on: March 14, 2018, 01:24:04 PM
I've noticed more and more cryptocurrency related sites are running Bitcoin and Altcoin mining on their websites. I don't know about the rest of you but I am getting tired of it. I would support smaller projects and websites if they let users know. None of them see to be open about saying they are running miners.

I would recommend installing the following if you are not already running them:

Chrome
NoMiner - Chrome
No Coin! - Chrome
minerBlock - Chrome

Firefox
NoMiner - Firefox
No Coin! - Firefox
minerBlock - Firefox

Opera
No Coin! - Opera
minerBlock - Opera

Safari
Unknown
Safari from my understanding does not have any approved miner blockers in their extension store.

Brave solves all these problems.

For a list of sites running miners see (WIP) Community Compiled List of Sites Browser Mining.
1016  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Real Estate blockchain?? on: March 13, 2018, 09:25:22 PM
Yes, it will help the real estate industry alot. Projects like Keep.network will help it even more by giving cross-blockchain and bridging the connecting between users. It ads a lot of authenticity to the sale of real estate itself.
1017  Economy / Exchanges / Re: POLONIEX is going downhill... on: March 13, 2018, 07:38:55 PM
I hate to be that guy but Poloniex in my opinion has never been any good. I hope with the recent acquisition though they will do some needed changes.

The thing also is getting Bitcoins back would be so much less paper work compared to having to liquidating the Bitcoins to fiat than paying each person based off backdated prices.
1019  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Why do we trust hardware wallet manufacturers? on: March 13, 2018, 05:54:45 PM
If you can't verify the source code, the only way to stay safe is trust the people and community who already verify the source code.

This. You have to remember that this applies to anything in life. Why do we trust strangers when asking restaurant advice? Same applies here.
