Probably your fans are just bots writing"good project"?

Those comments are deleted because they are unsubstantial and are used to bump threads.

If that's the case, They your "fans" to avoid doing so, because your thread may get deleted if there is any incentive to post this kind of comment there.

Cryptocurrencies somehow became my study for some time

You can study trading if you like. There are good sites and books online where you can learn about technical analysis
 This is a useful knowledge.

But I prefer to study about the blockchain, bitcoin, etc. I don't trade, I just hold.

There are good books online and they are very useful. You can begin with mastering bitcoin, which is free on GitHub

Hello.

I don't want to be rude, but I will make two observations (if I don't do, someone else will)

1- this is the wrong board. Only btc payment should be here. You need to move this to altcoins board

2- why would I do this for free?
You want me to create an account, give you my email, transfer 0.02 ethereum to you, test your plataform and make a review.... All that for free? For a promise from a 0trust member to give my money back?

This is too good for you and to bad for everyone else. You should pay us.

Something like 0.002 btc at least , or 0.1 ethereum for the review.


Just my 2 satoshis...
11885  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: How to harrass billionaires? what's your ideas before choping their heads off? on: August 30, 2018, 05:28:03 PM
Comments like this make me think about an earned merit requirement to post in the ivory tower ...

Quoted for reference...


you are soooooo brain dead... please, those billionaires can't afford better PR or it's simply that you are doing deliberatly the opposite of what they pay you for?

let's look at both your example, here, on this forum? couldn't you cite to better closed sourced system example? no you couldn't...

and worst is your lack of knowledge of history... you are such a sucker.... xerox htc... I know for you that is nothing, past... non event, in your fake reality bubble.

he fucking gave you nothing, you fucking bough it even if it was overpriced and the margins are insane on the product and that all your data (audio, locations, all things you input in) will be harvested by them.

I find fun to see guys seek enslavement... the fear to be able to determine independently your destiny and rather than face the unavoidable death, seek the confort of slave master...

the plantation mindset well explained by candace owen...

most bought apple products because they saw that girls were too stupid and obsessed to maximize their sexual strategy to learn how to use real software and hardware and so the little conformist muppet did what was expected from them, they conform, they chose their imac and other shit with an emptied apple logo...

and worst you don't address my issue :

bezos 120'000'000'000 in the bank
potus salary 400'000...

you don't see a problem here? you are too dumbfounded and chose those 2 examples to hang them?

then you don't see the problem

1 bag of cocaine = years in jail
running a pedo island = 13 months

how can you be so dishonnest? you know the truth, making this dishonnest choice, removed your humanity to me, meaning, you are really a disposable source of biomass and nutrients... really... just a thing to be disposed at the right place for "recycling"... nothing else.

and that will not change.

and that's why they hate trump so much, what can they offer him he doesn't have? something they can't offer him, MAGA !
11886  Other / Meta / Re: Application for a merit source on: August 30, 2018, 05:20:03 PM

I honestly don't know where this is going, I feel the entire point of this application is a waste, I appreciate everybody who has supported thus far, and thanking them isn't enough I feel, but I don't really see theymos doing anything about this. But I am not ready to give up on this yet. I still want to help people, and I'll try what I can do best.
I feel the same.

I won't give up my application as well, but I don't think he is going to increase sources now.

 If theymos decides he needs more sources, I am available.
11887  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: How to harrass billionaires? what's your ideas before choping their heads off? on: August 30, 2018, 04:39:04 PM
The thing is that many of those billionaires create things that are very useful.

Bill gates created windows. You can say whatever you want about it, but 1000000 engineers couldn't make windows alone.

What about iPhone? The first smartphone. This invention changed the decade.
I am sure you have one smartphone.

Do you think that 1000 or 10000 engineers would invent one without Steve Jobs? Even if he didn't made it, he knew how to invest in a good idea and give resources to that idea and the people able to achieve it

 employees following orders blindly will receive less money. They are not making the big decisions or suffering any kind of risk.

Do you think it is unfair to make people like Steve Jobs a billionaire? I think that making him a billionaire was not a problem at all. He gave us all smartphones, which changed the way we all live.

Nobody is forced to use a smartphone. They are sold for a fair price  and you are not forced to buy. And everyone buys it because it is useful.

Those inventions all com from countries which support billionaires, not from countries that Harrass them.

What you are saying has been tried many times. It results in more unemployment and poverty. The billionaires just move elsewhere.

11889  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: $450,000,000 for a single painting. on: August 30, 2018, 12:23:30 AM
Not sure if this is the case here but these expensive paintings are often used for money laundering.  The value of some of these paintings are crazy, the Mona Lisa has been valued at over $1 billion dollars.

48 million dollars for a car is also ridiculous.  When your a multi billionaire though you have so much extra money you might as well blow it, can't take it with you when you die.  


I don't think Monalisa or davinci paintings could be related to money laundry

I think contemporary art is more related to money laundry, as someone can just put a $30 chair upside down and it will be worth $3,000,000.

And Monalisa and davinci paintings are really worth a lot, because those paintings have a great influence over our culture. They are also scarse, as davinci can't paint anymore.

Can the cable be connected to a tablet or iPad?
PC? Or do you mean notebook?

The original cable has a usd output. So you cannot connect it to smartphones or tablets that doesn't have a usd input.
11891  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Mobile wallet clarification on: August 29, 2018, 09:39:23 AM
Coinbase offers a wallet service, which is not a wallet at all.

They lend you some addresses on their wallet and hold your funds for you. This is like a custody service.

It's not technically a wallet, because you don't hold your private keys
11892  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Cheap electricity available, need advice on: August 29, 2018, 12:58:07 AM
No, they are not asking for money I think the reason why they need to inspection some places in Venezuela because of illegal crytomining. If you heard the news months ago there is a big crisis in Venezuela and blaming illegal Cryptomining for power shortages.
Check this news Venezuela: Zulia Governor Blames Illegal Crypto Mining

So, I think mining small and private would be fine.

This makes no sense. What is the difference between a legal and an illegal cryptocurrency mining?

Unless you are stealing energy, this makes no sense to call illegal.

You cannot mine alts? Lol
11893  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: Will precious metal coins return as everyday currency? on: August 28, 2018, 08:59:29 PM
What is happening in Venezuela and Turkey are temporary(hopefully) and desperate situations.
Trading chicken for silver is also probably illegal there ...

I don't believe metals will be used as a currency again, like in middle age.  Unless there is some sort of apocalyptic future (nuclear war, zombie attack, socialism).
Even without being used as a currency, gold/silver are a safe haven against crisis and can be an amazing investment.

If I were to buy metals (I hope I can buy some in future) I would probably buy an ETF, which can be easily traded at anytime. I believe there is no way back to silver/chicken pairs. Internet changed things forever.

With ETF I cannot get scammed, no one can steal it from me..
There are many downsides that we all know (centralization, coercion, government may take it away form me etc)... But those risks are somewhat lower than negotiating directly the physical coins. How do you know your coins are 98% silver and not 91%? Where will you store 10k usd silver? I am not a specialist and I could get scammed easily

If you are buying metal as a hedge against a total collapse, physical metal like your coins are way better.
If someone from Turkey had some Turkish silver ETF (if that even exists) they are probably fucked up, but I doubt countries like US or UK will have this kind of problems.

In Venezuela every financial asset became worthless because government use fake conversations rates against usd (like 1000x higher than in the dark market, which is now the real market).

What do you think? Why didn't you bought silver ETF?

@Thekool1s was right. By just posting posts in Megathreads is simply a way of posting shitposts. Just like what I saw in your post history Smiley
I guess I just didn't realize that by posting in those threads I am seen as such a parasite to this forum.  Shocked


Well, think for a moment if you don't realize.

Someone creates a thread"what's is going on with eth"
That's just a stupid topic , by somehow it attracted 15 pages. With 20 posts per page, there are  over 300 answers to that question.

At page 14 you wrote something. I didn't waste my time to read it, because you didn't read the previous 280 replies.
You just threw away some comment, with no context, knowing that nobody would read it, just to get one more post.


Do you realize now why is that considered shitpost?

I didn't look at many of your posts, just answering your question and I can see you got some merits so you can make good posts too. Take this answer as an incentive Wink

1. Is that risk free to keep Cryptocurrencies in a mobile wallet?
Nothing is risk free. However mobile wallets are save enough for you to keep Small amounts, such as the same value of your mobile device.

2. If my mobile crashed with active mobile wallet, will my cryptocurrencies lose?
No. When you create your account using a mobile wallet you will have to save your mnemonic phrase, which will give you access to your privatekeys. Privatekey will help you recover your funds anytime you want in all kinds of wallet.

3. What is the best mobile wallet for IOS (Apple)?

I believe Coinomi is the best mobile wallet for iOS.
It supports segwit and it is multicurrency.


I'll answer all of it, on question #1, Yes it is risk-free to keep cryptocurrencies in a mobile wallet, BUT there are still problems when in keeping cryptocurrency through a Mobile Wallet, which means it is not 100% safe, which means you'd have to secure your BTC somewhere reliable, my first option would be using Coinbase as your mobile wallet.

Nope, if your mobile wallet crashed, it does not mean that your cryptos will lose as well, don't worry about that!  Cheesy

Probably the best mobile wallet for iOs is either Coinbase or Breadwallet.

Coinbase is not a wallet, it is an exchange. You are spreading misinformation and talking about things you know little about.
11896  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Cheap electricity available, need advice on: August 28, 2018, 04:07:06 PM
I'm sorry but you live in a very unstable political area....that probably ends with....STAN

[...]

You would be far better off to stay SMALL and quiet. and private..under the radar and serve/help only yourself.
The cheap electricity is only blood in the water that attracts big bad hungry remorseless sharks

I strongly agree with this.

I have a friend in Venezuela in a similar situation.

He said that local authorities scan for high energy consumers.
Some corrupted authorities ask for money, because they know who I mining.

The best is to stay low and small in such unstable political areas.
11897  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can I get started anonymously? on: August 28, 2018, 03:59:45 AM
I do not wish to mine, only to have a method of withdraw and deposit to and from my bank account. This is because I've been asked if I have a wallet people can donate to, and it's been asked twice so I figured it would be helpful to have.

Coinbase wants my SSN and a photo ID, and I'm not comfortable with that.

There are similar issues with CEX and Kraken, from my research.

Is there any wallet service that will let me use my debit card as a way to receive money? I want to have the wallet just so I have the option to accept Bitcoin or other coins.

Coinbase, Kraken, etc are not Wallets, they are exchanges

As you are a total newbie, I suggest that you get some mobile wallet such as Coinomi. (Download it on Google play or Apple store)
It's very intuitive, free and anonymous.

You can also try some web wallet, such as blockchain.info
I believe mobile wallet is more secure. However both are unsafe.

For security, considering buying a hardware wallet such as trezor or ledger nano.

All wallets suggested here are 100% anonymous.

But you are the one who is responsible for staying anonymous.
A good practice is to avoid using the same receiving address more than once.

However, even good projects may have bad performances now. It's safer to stay away for a few months.
11899  Economy / Economics / Re: Vitalik Buterin suggests a new fixed fee model for ethereum transactions on: August 28, 2018, 01:24:25 AM
Of course, its a terrible idea. Many of ethereum's core philosophies and engineering are hideous. Vitalik Buterin is in a political position where he must appease microsoft and other corporate sponsors of ETH and bow before their demands and so it shouldn't be surprising if ETH resembles Windows 10 in many respects. ETH is the microsoft windows of crypto currencies. It doesn't much resemble the linux equivalent to crypto nor the open source movement which gave birth to the classification of crypto currencies. (I think someone above covered this in an indirect way by saying that Satoshi Nakamoto had to be anonymous)

Vitalik Buterin always maintains a united front with the opinions of bankers as if he were reading from a script they had written especially for him.

My opinion anyway. Until I partner with microsoft and then I may be the one reading from a script.   Lips sealed

This Windows comparison is interesting.

However I didn't get your idea about vitalik and the bankers.
 vitalik Buterin really acts in a weird way sometimes, but in my opinion tokenization model is revolutionary and it was a great blow to the financial system.

Now companies does not need to be funded through the stock market, they can be easily funded without any burocratic issue through ethereum ICOs.
