I've spent a bit of time there and I do post there now and then.
The amount of spam, of worthless or repeating posts, of discussions just for the sake of it is overwhelming. But this happens when the numbers are the only thing that matter.

But they do pay. I did withdraw already. And I'm not telling about withdrawal from cryptotalk to yobit, I'm telling about the next step too: withdrawal from yobit into an external wallet.
So I can confirm that part.


About OP topic, I wonder who was thinking that such a contest can be 100% real and clean. But maybe I'm just too pessimistic  

Everything is possible. But we do want that? Really? Because that means another FOMO bubble which, sooner or later will end badly for many.
Although the chances for a new bubble start are quite big imho, I'd still prefer to see it come a bit later and meanwhile let Bitcoin have some period of slow and steady growth.

Just for the record, when I've seen my posts deleted I checked for the reason and I noticed the mistake (that we were necro bumping). Sorry for that.
Since TECSHARE posted again there, I PM-ed him telling it's an old thread and he should delete his post. (I've done the same in the past with Legendary members instead of reporting, they usually understand and delete.)

Keep in mind that you'll need to think on some good incentive for the full nodes, else nobody would store extremely big blockchain.
You may also think on some sort of sharding for your blockchain to keep the sizes at a reasonable level, just then you have to fine tune it to avoid data loss when nodes leave the network.

Maybe you discuss with the guys from DxBox project, they also store files in the blockchain https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5189356

Reading the doc page may help. I assume that OP addresses were starting with 1* and now they're bc1* and then Legacy wallet has to be chosen.

OP, please move the other topic, written in Chinese letters, from the English area to the Chinese boards.

Think on a couple relevant keywords and google search. In this case, a search for cobra owns bitcointalk site:bitcointalk.org, in the first result - thread the 5th post already has this quote in it.
I don't know if @bL4nkcode did exactly this, but at least this is the path I'd go on.

Because nothing is certain. Because you don't have the confidence for it.
You should have had money at the exchanges when that happened. Would you have been waiting until the right moment or would you have been selling too early or too late?
Why did't you sell yesterday to buy back today, so after the heat lowered? Do you have a certainty (or something close to that) on how low Bitcoin will go until it'll rise again?

I did some tiny-amounts trading in the past. I've got the things right 2 times, 5 times, 10 times, then I've got them wrong and wasted most of the earnings from 20-30 of times getting it right.
I learned an interesting thing: trading is not for me.

Maybe this answers to some of your questions.
Of course, you can get some small amount and see how it goes. You'll need many trades to get the confidence you can do the things right in most of the cases (don't fool yourself, you'll make mistakes too).

I wrote in the same post: people buy by rumors.
They may expect further moves (which may or may not happen) which could affect the price. It has happened in 2017 too, isn't it?
It was, after all, much bigger than the "usual" week-end "strange" behaviors for the market.
Of course, I may be wrong too. If I'd know for good all these things I'd be rich by now.



I've read @Darker45 post (from start to end!) as sarcasm; it was the only way I made sense to me 

Most people don't read much.
They've heard that some early Bitcoiners are rich now. Just look at Ver, or the twins, isn't it?
They may also hear about faucets: money for free. (It doesn't matter that's probably only a tenth of a cent, that part they'll understand much later.)
They may also hear about mining: some magic and poof, money for free.

And here's how the false assumptions are born.
Some will read and see what's the reality. Some others will get disappointed and may even become opponents of this technology.

You're right. Nobody really believes them. Not anymore.
But we still wait for end of 2020: Whether John McAfee is right of wrong, it will be interesting  



Does it have to stay attached? Did he say he'll eat it uncooked?

After such a declaration from China's president, what you expected, really? 



You are right, but don't people buy more on feelings, rumors and FOMO?
I also said that blockchain can also help China in logistics.
But I somehow believe that China doesn't need a presidential statement for that. Of course, this is speculation, and we go back to China + Bitcoin = Love Price.

So the president tells that blockchain is good.
And the television teaches them about Bitcoin.
I think that everybody is waiting for the next step: allowing the exchanges operate again in China. Hence the price rise...

While the saying is "blockchain is not Bitcoin", there are multiple aspects here. BTW, thank you for pushing the price back onto the right direction 

1. China is the world's biggest manufacturer. Blockchain can be a blessing for logistics!
2. Whether China's communist party likes it or not, crypto markets means real money, money of which some parts can be earned. It was a mistake to say "no" to that money and this may be fixed in a further step (and maybe this is what the price has shown).

I think that the downtrend was fake/manipulation. And with the unexpected help from China the upward pressure couldn't be stopped any longer.
Bitcoin is limited supply and the halving is near. Don't forget that.

Mea culpa. Cum altfel puteam sa dau cu bata-n balta decat sa zic lumii sa fie mai atenta si sa nu fiu eu atent? 



Din pacate unii pot sa deduca de aici doar ca suntem rautaciosi si invidiosi ca el "are" 800BTC si noi nu.
In 50% din cazuri, cand am rabdare, prefer sa ii iau cu binisorul. Sunt sanse sa fie mai receptivi.
Gandeste-te totusi ca s-a bagat cu capul inainte in scam-ul cu wallet gras pe net, probabil e un script kiddie care umbla "pe site-uri de-alea" si nu realizeaza cat de multe "afaceri" sunt scam.
De aceea explicatia este binevenita:


desi apoi ai continuat sa-l iei tot tare. Si asta era la punctul 5, iar el probabil s-a oprit din citit pe la punctul 2.


Dar, na, e usor de vorbit "dupa"; si cum vezi, si eu ma pricep la dat cu bata-n balta.

Thank you!

One direction could be the Chinese shops, like AliExpress and such, just the delivery times are big.
Another direction could be to find a friend or acquaintance who upgraded the card for his phone (or got one that doesn't even need a card anymore).

Also keep in mind that most probably you don't need a big card. Even if you get it with you in holidays, you'll just have to transfer the pictures more often to laptop, cloud or an USB stick.

Although the hearing was not about Libra, it had a very important meaning they wanted to demonstrate: it's too risky to put so much power into Mark's hands.
And Libra means a lot of power and a lot of things that can go wrong, no matter which angle you are looking from.

Libra would mean the first crypto with bigger acceptance than Bitcoin.
Libra would mean a stable coin, like USDT. Tied to one issuer. Something for which the issuer may impose rules you didn't even think of. Just remember what happened when Bittrex "seized" people's coins asking for KYC and multiply it 1 million times. And this can easily happen.

I guess that you didn't pay attention to the potential activity part.

In order to make 1 activity you need 1 "day resource" and 1 "post resource".
Since you have old account, you have plenty of "day resources", those are not lost, those are potential activity.
Now, since you are posting, you are using up those old "day resources" and the new "post resources" and "generating" activity.
If you keep posting (don't spam, please), at some point the potential activity, the old "day resources" will deplete and the activity will not rise anymore.
Then the "post resources" will add up. And at some point, after 14 days, your activity will just jump a little more.

Clearer now?

Daca era sarcasm si "foarte posibil" inseamna "0 sanse", ai dreptate.
Daca nu, nu ar strica sa citesti un pic mai bine postarile.
