I have really learnt a lot for the few time I have spend here so far, I observed that this platform needs more time and commitment if one must catch up and I have decide to scheduled 3 hour on a daily basis to be learning and doing some research about this prestigious Forum. I also noticed without well constructive and meaningful post my Forum account will lack growth, my question is what are the qualities of a well constructive and meaningful post?

If you spend 3 hours a day just reading the forum, you probably have found a lot of high quality and well constructed posts.

Why do you find those posts so interesting, that you are willing to spend 3 hours every day here? What makes those posts so interesting to you?

If you can answer that, you can just create posts like those ones you admire so much. You donīt need to look for other peopleīs opinions, as everyone has a different opinion about what is a high quality post.

Beautiful infographic.
But the most important is not there:

Write down your seed in a piece of paper and never store it online, never take any pictures of it as well.

I agree with the op, cryptocurrency gambling is here to stay.
There are far too many benefits (many not included in oplist, such as privacy).

Also, those gambling Dapps are much safer for both gamblers and the house.
11145  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Getting paid in Bitcoin on: June 05, 2019, 06:09:42 PM
I think getting paid 100% in BTC is not a good idea, and probably illegal almost everywhere.
But a bonus paid in BTC would be interesting. Or maybe few % every month.
11146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is a smart contract? on: June 04, 2019, 04:40:15 PM
    • The second link I shared shows pictorially that the smart contract has some rules and which both parties agree and the third party verifies it. "Rules" "Third party" all this things makes it centralised?

    No. There is no third party to verify.
    When you create the contract with the rules, rules are registered in the blockchain (which is decentralized).
    Once conditions are met, the rules are applied and all nodes will record it, as it will be on the blockchain.

    Quote
    • If smart contract makes it centralized then why NXT, ETH and BTC are using it?
    Because it is not centralized. There is no third party, just the blockchain which will apply the rules if conditions are met, and will not apply if conditions are not met.


    Quote
    • What is the difference between a ETH contract payment and other ETH payments?
    • Does the rules mean the puzzle in mining and Third party refer to miner?

    Can someone please explain this "Smart Contract" thing easily. An better article or book will also work for me will put effort to learn Cheesy. As and when I am continuing exploring this it is confusing me more. Please help.

    I will make an example.

    Let's suppose I make a contract for my ico. If someone deposit 1 eth on the smartcontract addres (which I cannot get the funds)s , the smartcontract will automatically send 1000 shitokens back. There is no way to send only 900, as the contract is registered in blockchain and is registered in all nodes. Once the conditions are met (1 eth sent) the smartcontract will automatically send 1000 tokens to whoever sent the eth, and the eth to an address which belongs to me

    There is no third party verification. It's a digital agreement which cannot be changed once it is registered in the blockchain, this is why it is an immutable and tamperproof digital agreement (without third party verification as all ethereum nodes are verifying it)

    11147  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: Will energy become a blockchain currency? on: June 04, 2019, 03:19:01 PM
    Bitcoin already is an abstracted form of energy based currency.

    input: proof of work -------> output: BTC coinbase tx

    Once I saw antonopoulos saying that PoW is like staking energy .
    So pow could be considered a PoS of energy, something from outside the bitcoin system. I liked that idea.

    I agree, bitcoin is already a energy based cryptocurrency. Bitcoin  price can even be calculated by how much energy it costs to be produced.
    11148  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Dust Attack on: June 04, 2019, 03:14:29 PM
    I don't see that as a real issue , unless you are trying not to be tracked and are paranoid about privacy.

    Consolidating that dust is a nice way to earn a few Satoshi from that attack, as pointed out by loycev.

    ONLY do this if the spam dust is sent to the same address, for privacy reasons (combining spam from different addresses suggests the same individual owns them all)

    That guy must be really lucky (or unlucky) to get attacked on two addresses on the same wallet. But yeah, it is also worth pointing out not to combine with other addresses which you can be identified (used by exchanges withdrawal/deposits or whatever)
    11149  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is DAO? How DAO's work? on: June 04, 2019, 03:12:07 PM
    People try to categorize and compare bitcoin with companies and organization or other cryptocurrencies. It never works.
    Bitcoin is not like dash.

    Bitcoin is something new that doesn't fit old classifications and categories
    11150  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Segwit address tag on: June 03, 2019, 11:03:23 PM
    Blockchain.com doesn't fully support segwit yet.
    And tagging is pretty much useless, and it will be bad for your privacy.
    Also, it will only work in blockchain.com explorer
    11151  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you dream big? on: June 03, 2019, 10:56:12 PM
    Are you dreaming about  audacious Bitcoin price goals? Is this your motivation?
    Because I see no other reason to post this here
    11152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Cost to make Dapp on: June 03, 2019, 06:43:41 PM
    How much is the cost to build Dapp on ETH platform?
    It depends on the Dapp you want to use.

    Dapp is a software. THere are softwares which are free, freewares... other softwares costs thousands of dollars.

    Some complex software may cost millions, maybe billions of dollars to be produced (like AAA games). Soon we may have AAA games in the ethereum network, running as Dapps.

    Other Dapps may be done in a few minutes and will cost nothing.

    What kind of Dapp you want to do?



    Is it cost effective to build Dapp on ETH than any other platform??

    Probably Ethereum is the best platform, as it is the most tested and reliable. THere are thousand of developers working on it.
    11153  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Blockchain Domain as Wallet on: June 03, 2019, 06:23:10 PM
    I would like to know what everyone's thoughts are on the blockchain DNS that I keep seeing. I believe there are a handful such as .eth and .zil through companies like unstoppable domains. To my understanding you have this address that can accept a handful of currencies.

    This seems cool for people who want to be public. Good mass adaption option for a wallet?


    Ethereum name service (https://ens.domains/) is exactly that. You can use use your .eth domain  as a wallet.
    Namecoin is doing something similar as well with .bit domains.

    Those initiatives are good because  DNS is very centralized in their central authority. Those blockchain domains would be decentralized and more resilient against coercion from powerful people.

    THere are recent cases where users lost their domains. Look at this one from a few months ago. A guy who lost France.com domain to france government (he had it for more than 20 years). In a .eth or . bit domain, that would not happen, as a owing a domain would be like owing bitcoin.

    "We need to confirm you are the owner of the source address... A lot of people try to cheat us.
    So please, send us:
    Operating system
    Bitcoin Wallet Software."

    at blockchain transaction stay unspend and no outputs and many confirmation.... what means that ?

    the money is away or ? nothing chance ? but i dont know why they answer Sad it does not matter to them



    Your coin is under their control now. Itīs gone.

    They are scammers, as LoyceV said. They are answering you because they want to fool you again and give them more money.

    They should never ask your operation system or wallet software, as it has nothing to do with ownership. Stay away from this website, do not talk to them anymore via e-mail, because they are probably going to try to cheat you again.
    11155  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If everyone is hodling, how can bitcoin be used for mass adoption? on: June 03, 2019, 04:53:28 PM
    How can you say everyone is holding? We have now a 24h volume of $20.687.254.431, which is 20 billion dollars being negotiate every day.

    Few stores accept BTC for now, so itīs not easy to use it as payment method for now...
    11156  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Development for Bitcoin to reduce CO2 footprint on: June 01, 2019, 04:20:48 PM
    Old subject...

    Pos was not tested in a big network such as bitcoin. Not even ethereum tried it yet. And bitcoin must be more conservative, as a change in the algorithm could cause lots of unexpected problems. Let other shitcoins try first...

    Peer coin and other cryptocurrencies which tried are very small and barely used..

    Also, pow is working fine. Why people care so much about bitcoin energy consumption to secure the network?

    How much does the whole banking system consumes? How much energy does christimas lights worldwide consume?
    Bitcoin energy consumption is necessary, as it keeps the network safe and secure against attacks. We should focus in reducing energy costs in less important activities, such as christimas or old lamps with high energy consumption

    If you think it is probably the last , you just need to brute Force it.

    There are 2048 possible words, which are listed in the above link. There are programs already mentioned here that will brute Force for you.

    Why would a professional sports trader who works in a big company would do an AMA for free , anonymously, without saying which company he works, here in bitcointalk?

    Highly unlikely
    11159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My top 10 bitcoin investment advice on: June 01, 2019, 11:42:17 AM
    I agree with all of them apart from the first one.
    In my opinion, if someone doesn't know what he does he should better choose to invest in bitcoin rather than diversifying in  many cryptocurrencies that they don't understand their technology.

    Because proper diversification isn't throwing money to shitcoins. Proper diversification is putting money on other non-crypto assets and businesses instead. Putting money on other cryptocurrencies with higher chances of failure is actually making your portfolio worse.

    Exactly. Usually all shitcoins lose value compared to Bitcoin in long term. There are very few coins which you can really accumulate more BTC buying them, and only if you sell in the correct time (which usually is a small window)

    It's much safer to just stick to btc and tradicional investments
    11160  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Say it again? Bitcoin transaction fees expensive? on: June 01, 2019, 11:38:13 AM
    I agree that $5 is a small fee for that transaction. However$5 is usually a very high fee (141 sat/byte is extremely high).
    But that's not a big problem, as those high fees do not last long... Having a little patience and you can make transactions for 6sat/byte or less in a few days
