LOL, very true, but a bit long term on the return.

I have "traditional" investments/retirement savings.  In crypto, I'm in everything I can.  I mine, dabble in day trading, buy in to what look like possibly GOOD new projects, stake several coins, etc...

As in any portfolio, diversification is critical.

Money/Future/Power/World Domination???

I think most people are clearly in it for $$, but there's possible future proofing here too.  If quantum computing doesn't destroy our world in the next several decades, imagine if you're great great grandfather had bought a few bars of gold for $2 each in the 1800s and you inherited them today.  We're in that place now, possibly.

I think part of the problem is this came out for trading at almost the exact same time as SEVERAL other very high profile coins/tokens.  There's only so much investment/spec capital to go around and RLC/GNO/LUNYR/GUP and a few others were all fighting for it.

Patience is everyone's friend in this case.

Heh, know how you feel.  On the plus side the token is pretty inexpensive on DEX right now if you wanted to buy in.

I'm thinking this will be auto-airdrop like some other WAVE tokens have.

If registration is required, i'm intrigued so count me in.

Been a while since I used nicehash, but IIRC, you can selectively check different algos on/off in the benchmarking screen.

Gotta admit, I bought some.  With that said it really doesn't pass the sniff test.

Kinda like it, has a Fallout flavor to it.

Maybe he meant SDC?

There's a box to check for "send max" that will calculate the send with transfer fees.  You may need to add a little eth to the wallet for gas.

Ha!  Beat me to it 

Every full moon, until all bytes are distributed.

Install the client, link it to a BTC address.  You get an airdrop for a % of BTC in that wallet, and for all bytes held in the wallet itself.

Sound investing advice in general here.  This could make a good sticky.

Owning BTC is sufficient, but you need to link the BTC wallet in the BB client with the transition bot.

I actually greatly appreciate that, sensible explanations beat childish name calling any day

Read both those concerns, one requiring the 51% control of mining already has known potential exploits even in bitcoin so, although legitimate, comes with the territory to some extent.

The incredibly anachronistic fractional reserve analogy is intriguing, but it's not totally apt, since in this LN exploit it would require active intent to defraud (not that someone wouldn't given the opportunity).

The segwit as softfork issues I see as more concerning, less the irreversibility but more the potential chain breakdowns.  Immutability is the cornerstone of this whole technology.  With that said it's far from impossible to imagine, with active code development, the kludges being ameliorated or even eliminated over time.

I'm no fan of fractional reserve banking, but see much of this concern hinged on some EXTREME "what ifs", and even then if the tech fails and LTC goes with it, then it will serve as a lesson for BCC and other teams to learn from.

Segwit isn't sexy, or even remotely pretty, but it does seek to address long term usage issues in existing blockchain systems.  Ther MIGHT be better solutions, but it seems insane to not try it.  I have some money in LTC and am OK gambling that on code that might help all of us, even if that help is only learning the hard way it doesn't work.

Please explain, or link to a technically valid information source that's able to show such.  This is pure FUD from everything i've read about segwits use and implementation.

It would be great two have two or even three other exhanges with asimilar interface and crucially similar liquidity to Polo. There just isn't really much competition on those fronts.

I'd love to see BYTE but I doubt since it's a unique wallet / consensus chain they'd need to integrate.

My guess would be (roughly in order) PIVX, Ark, Komodo, Incent, Iconomi.

Many of the coins already mentioned have a good shot, but I'm looking from what Polo usually values (market cap, liquidity, volume, price fluctuation) i.e. what will MAKE THEM money by having it listed.

Verified ETH address THREE times, including after it was mysteriously removed.

I've added the token multiple ways in myeth and still zero.

The site (when it was up) showed my BTC payments no problem though, just glad it was a small investment.  I'm still optimistic, but not holding my breath.

Would need to receive the tokens I paid for weeks ago to even do that.
