I do not believe in my eyes when ETH drops below $ 300. I went to find the cause and saw some pages talking about this because the ICO is selling out the ETH they mobilized from the investors. This has made the price drop dramatically. What is happening to the price of ETH? ETH is likely to drop to $ 200?
300 was a strong support and a psychological barrier and many people was surprised. I don't believe it will fall more... However, nobody knows what's going to happen. Remain calm and don't take rush decisions

All the major currencys are down. What's your opinion on the upcoming market situation?
I believe useless shitcoins are not going to recover. Some of big ones, like nano, might not recover as well. With Turkey situation going terrible, all stock markets in the world are down, and most currencies as well. Everyone is afraid and money is going to more secure assets, like USD. Turkey citizens are buying bitcoin as well, so this could be holding bitcoin's price

Nothing will happen.... However, one interesting fact is that bitcoin dominance is now the highest in the year. Near 53%. At this times of bear market, most people try to protect their capital in bitcoin which is the most stable coin

Hello Zapo. As we talked in PM, updated my signature now.

Turkey is facing a crisis as its national currency is plunging. The 10-day volatility of the lira relative to the U.S. dollar has surpassed that of Bitcoin (BTC). President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been urging the people of Turkey to exchange their dollars and gold for lira, The Guardian reports.
However, it appears that the savvy citizens of Turkey are exchanging their lira for Bitcoin, evidenced by an increase in the trade volume across cryptocurrency exchanges in the country, according to Forbes.
Though the absolute volumes are still low, the crisis has still shown the importance of cryptocurrencies, which due to their decentralized nature can’t be controlled by governments and central banks. A recent study by Yale economist Aleh Tsyvinski said that an optimal portfolio should park at least 6 percent of its funds in Bitcoin.
Although the overall sentiment in the crypto world is still bearish, the market participants continue to favor Bitcoin, which has increased its dominance above the 51 percent mark.
source: https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-ethereum-ripple-bitcoin-cash-eos-stellar-litecoin-cardano-monero-iota-price-analysis-august-13Bitcoin is showing great resilience in this crash. Already 51%. Ethereum is now 280. Turkey citizens buying btc shows again one of the most important attributes of bitcoin, and why it is valuable: if cannot be controlled.

Vc já viu se está tendo algum lucro com a mineração, considerando o custo da energia?
Pelos meus cálculos, minerar nunca foi lucrativo,a não ser q vc viva em um local c energia muito barata.
Mesmo. 2012 por aí qd o pessoal minerava 30btc no mês, dava prejuízo. Lógico que acabou que deu lucro depois pq valorizou, mas aí é outra questão.
Eu acredito q Mesmo em 2012 era melhor comprar btc do que minerar BTC, usando a mesma grana.
O que acham?

Nesses ultimos dias tem MUITO newbie postando frases curtas e sem utilidade em alguns tópicos específicos. Não escrevem nada substancial. Mas escrevem muito em um curto espaço de tempo. Não parece ser Bot, as frases não são repetidas. Fica a impressão que em alguns dias essa seção pode ficar igual a seção de altcoins. Cheia de Mega tópicos, com respostas mediocres e sem utilidade.
Imagino que algum youtuber conhecido tenha feito um video sobre o forum explicando sobre assinaturas. Ou algum texto em algum lugar. Já que parecem ser bountyHunter e não pessoas com vontade de conhecer sobre Bitcoin. Até por estar no Bear Market. Alguém sabe de algo sobre isso?
Cara eu recomendo que você dê Report to Moderator em todos que você ver. Ajuda a limpar nossa aba. Theymos tb está planejando implantar um sistema de badges para usuários que fazem muitos reports. Ngm sabe como isso será usado, mas de repente vale a pena acumular uns reports rsrs KKKKK! Tomara que desista! KKKK Eu tentando postar conteúdo bom estou quase desistindo. 27 méritos suados! kkk
Arredondei os meritos seu e do vit05 ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

I think that it is amazing to see a member with 80 activity who doesn't even know what a signature campaign is. Is this user only interested in bitcoin?
I will not look at his post history, so I will not get disappointed lol

I always wanted to know if somebody has quoted any of my posts so that I can reply to him. I was wondering if there could be a "Notifications" tab nearby the "My Messages" tab which would show the notification of the quoted messages from various threads.
I agree, i would like this feature as well. Not only quoted, but mentioned too. Sometimes in another topic someone may mention me, like @bitmover, or mentions a topic or a message that I created. I would like to know so I can participate in the discussion too. There is the "forum search" feature, where you can put your name and see if someone mentioned you. But it's too much time consuming in my opinion....

Hi and sorry if this question doesn’t even make sense!
I have read that bitcoin is secure because if someone wanted to tamper with a transaction in a past block, they would have to rehash that block and all the blocks that came after it - which would be prohibitive / impossible to catch up.
Assuming the above is correct, what if someone operating a node actually managed to do it. Wouldn’t they now have a chain that was valid, but different to everyone elses chain? I think this is the bit I have got wrong.
Im trying to understand how it prevents someone from changing a block.
Thanks for any pointers!
You are asking about how "proof of work" (POW) works. POW is the algorithm that secures the network. I made this summary about it few days ago https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3317586.0;topicseenAssuming the above is correct, what if someone operating a node actually managed to do it.

More straight forward answer: - finding the target hash (solving proof of work algorithm) for a block requires a lot of processing power, which costs energy and hardware. - If someone creates a side chain, it will be a smaller chain. Only the longest chain is considered valid, which is the chain with the most processing power. All the other nodes will consider this side chain invalid, unless this node could have more processing power than the rest of the network. This is called a 51% attack. Bitcoin is safe if the honest nodes have more than 51% of the network processing power.

I use my phone everyday in bitcointalk. It's not very nice because the font size is small I miss an app or a better design for mobile too.
On the other hand, I think the forum website is light and loads fast in my Android using Firefox. It works better than reddit app.

The address appear when he lost his funds and was itself cleared one day later. However, it also sees the transfer of over 1000 btc as if it was the staging area of a large scale attack.
Does anyone know what has happened there?
Thanks, --h
The attacker, after stealing the bitcoin, used a coin mixer service, so he could not be tracked. Mixers are amazing for privacy, so you will never know where your coins are now. They were mixed with thousands of coins in many Transactions... It is lost now. Did you buy your device from the official store? From third party? Was the firmware update? Your device is compromised if it was bought from third party. If that's the case, just discard it.

Maybe serious discussion board could be merited restricted? Like 10 earned merit or something like that.. I was thinking about this too, but much stricter: Forget about the rank-requirements, and only allow posts from users who earned at least a quarter of a Merit per day (since the introduction of Merit, or since registration for newer users). If a Newbie registered 2 weeks ago, and earned 4 Merit already, he should be allowed to post there. If he's not worth it, he'll lose access in a few days as he doesn't receive more Merit. If a Legendary hasn't managed to earn about 50 Merit since January, he won't be able to post there. I'm not sure if a quarter of a Merit per day is the right amount, but this can be changed to any value that works. This merit /activity ratio is interesting.(which is a merit per day stats, considering 1 activity=1day) But it's hard to keep the ratio high, as you need to be very active on the forum.. In general when I am reading threads I got used to look at the merit stats. If he has earned none I just skip his comment (when there are already a few posts in the topic). It was kind of natural to me, as if the user has like 500 or 501 until now and 700 activity he is just a spammer and it is probably not worth reading what he writes. I think the forum needs a section so exclusive that only the user making the post can see it. We could call it the Asylum.
That's a very nice name for a board lol Maybe this name could be used in the altcoin session, where nobody reads just spam. Altcoin Asylum, instead of altcoin discussion board lol

I am going to confess I felt good for not being in the very heavy category. I thought I was. I spend too much time here already lol

I do have some questions: - What is the Serious Discussion board meant for? - Are we losing it? - What do you think about that, meaning, how to determine what is actually a "serious" discussion and what is not? - Is that meant to avoid spammers? If it is, then it should probably has a restriction like the Ivory Tower.
...I`m just honestly curious...
I think serious discussion became an useless board. As signature are disabled there, there should be less spammers. However, somehow they find useful to post there... Ivory tower became a good alternative. But very few people use it... Maybe serious discussion board could be merited restricted? Like 10 earned merit or something like that..

Boa, até iria, mas a minha assinatura está dando quase o dobro no momento ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Caracoles. É mesmo. Paga muito bem essa sua campanha. Tá certo que é arriscado pela possibilidade de pump and dump, mas como ela já está nas exchanges. Sim, entrei a um mes e estou ganhando uns $40 por semana, como member, não tem nenhuma campanha semanal que esteja me pagando tão bem assim. bom aproveitar enquanto esta bom ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Que campanha é essa, não encontrei. Uma altcoin que já está em Exchanges e bem interessante Acho que o ideal nessas shitcoins é vender na hora q recebe, senão Jajá tá tudo zerado os 40 semanais rsrs

You can find everything about merit here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0In addition to activity, everyone now has a merit score, and you need both a certain activity level and a certain merit score in order to reach higher member ranks. The required scores are: Rank | Required activity | Required merit | Brand new | 0 | 0 | Newbie | 1 | 0 | Jr Member | 30 | 0 | Member | 60 | 10 | Full Member | 120 | 100 | Sr. Member | 240 | 250 | Hero Member | 480 | 500 | Legendary | Random in the range 775-1030 | 1000 |
BTW,I think merit points are not so good for your own reputation, but helps the forum when you merit another user.
Merit points are good for your reputation if you are not a spammer. If you make substantial posts, help others and research before posting, you will get some merits and you will build a good reputation here. You already earned 2, so you probably are not a spammer, and will earn more merits

This thread surprises me. Went through 7 pages of it and hardly found 5 members who met the merit requirement. Of which 3 were rewarded by the system since they were on their way to becoming legendary. Except for 2 accounts who have actually earned their merit with quality posts. Zapo are you considering users who are below the required merit? Do you have a reduced Pay per post for them? Or will you reject them straight away?
I've been checking profiles right now, and have reduced the merit requirement to this now. Member - 15 merit Full Member - 110 merit Senior Member - 270 merit Hero Member - 520 merit Legendary Member - 1040 merit I saw that many users reached the minimum merit requirement. It was not 2, but way more. Maybe something like 20(I will not count.) 80 dollars for 30 (!) Posts for Sr.member? Do you consider this sufficient? Sr.member usually earns such money for 10 posts. Come, look at the prices in the bounty themes. In any case, I do not intend to argue any more.
I think the payment is good. That's btc, not some random shitcoin that is created out of nowhere. These bounties created shitcoins and say they are giving you 1000000 which will be worth 1000 usd, but you are not sure that's the real value when hit the exchanges.
