InvoKing, you had me laughing so hard I spilled my drink  Tongue

Ja, every criticism thrown at BTC can find a parallel in the 'real world'.

I'll quietly sip my tea and wait for the late majority to join.  After all, somebody had to be first, why not us.

Thank you  Smiley

Laughing here! I like how you put it in one-liners. There is so much hate in the world that even others' choice of investments is subject to public scrutiny. Like as if it is their money that is being spent.

I think we have to once and for all remember that we do not even know who created Bitcoin, what makes us think we can define Bitcoin as a bubble? Yes you can undergo all sorts of studies but you cannot be totally definitive as to your findings because its core history is unknown until now. I believe we are still at a limbo when it comes to Bitcoin's status.

Thank you both  Cheesy
What made me write it, is the hypocrites that see Bitcoin as the unique evil in the world like fiat weren't. Like fiat (especially USD) weren't used to promote wars, buying guns and drugs...  Wink

1. Bitcoin Funds Terrorism => no evidence or a significant difference between it and fiat!
2. Bitcoin is a Bubble => a giant and unbreakable one  Tongue
3. Bitcoin is Volatile => fiat getting worthless / inflation
4. Bitcoin is Tulip Mania All Over Again =>  Lips sealed
5. Bitcoin is Used by Hate Groups => like USD wasn't
6. Bitcoin is Mostly Used for Illegal Purposes => yeah buying cars, houses and soon lands in the Moon and Mars
7. Bitcoin is a Ponzi Scheme => a good and profitable one for everybody  Roll Eyes
8. Bitcoin Can Be Hacked => banks WERE robbed million times
9. Bitcoin is a Fad =>  Cool
10. Bitcoin Uses Exorbitant Amounts of Energy => refrigerators uses more!

Read the op of the thread. It's not meant to be something huge but just a way to essentially whitelist yourself and remove a few restrictions that are vital to some users:

I am aware that for most people the benefits of this membership are pretty lame. This membership is only intended to fill a specific niche; if you don't need it, don't buy it. It is not intended to be the lower-cost Donator/VIP alternative which I've talked about before as a possibility.

Hopefully some Silver & Gold ranks with better perks will be added in the near future.

The essential thing is to have good / specific features for the new S/G ranks, buying a rank without features or with a limited one isn't interesting imo.
Features could be : premium fast reply to pm?, flexibility to change name (studying the request then accept or deny it), new hidden section...etc (just ideas)

I cant access the website. Is anything happen to this project? Any other website that can calculate like this?
There were,now there aren't any!
However,you can always refer to the post/activity  algorithm written in the Meta section or from the github of this project.Depends how far you can go for the details  Embarrassed

As usual,Achow has to restart the Db or clear the cache before it starts working again.Be patient until then.

What's wrong with you people, I will just quote what was said in the upper posts
Suddenly the site is down, can you fix this please? It's already like a week or so on. Thank you.

Read the posts above you, achow can't do anything for the moment... Just wait for a solution from theymos or use papers and pens...
Theymos switched to Cloudflare and that's blocking basically all bots at this point in time. That's why the site is down now.
1286  Other / Meta / Re: Prohibiting newbies from starting a topic on: December 08, 2017, 05:26:24 PM
Hey, newbies spamming and shit-posting problem getting worse everyday. Some users suggested to bring back the noob jail, others decided to only visiting some subs (or left?).
The question is clear and i will not vote but what i suggest is to prohibit the newbies from posting except for copper member newbies (small fine/contribution or wait a month!).

No, i do not see any reason why newbies must not start a new topic. This is a sign of discrimination. They also wish to be active and ask their questions.

Asking the same questions over and over is simply called spam. They can post in beginners and help section and use the search function to find the answers.
Take a look how many newbies asked about the activity / tanks while there is a sticky topic about it...
1287  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcointalk Account price estimator on: December 08, 2017, 12:26:22 AM
With the existence of that site, it means that it is legit to sell a forum account ?

This site isn't an official one and the price of the accounts in it isn't accurate since it is no more the first intention to keep the site running.
Selling accounts isn't prohibited but you may risk getting a negative trust from other members when you try to sell it.
1288  Economy / Speculation / Re: I felt bad buying this morning at $14,000... on: December 07, 2017, 06:44:52 PM
But now that it has shot up to nearly $17,000 in just a few hours, it doesn't seem like too bad an investment!

Its crazy thinking that just last week i didn't want to buy at $10, or even $11k!

My only fear is that the bubble will pop with it increasing so quickly

Investing in bitcoin at any time is proven to be the best investment. It is true that buying on top isn't recommended but the profit until now is guaranteed

I've followed the link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=credit;promote

But I can't see the form? How do you confirm I have paid?

Take a close look here and read carefully what is written

Pay to the Bitcoin address xxxxxxxxxx. Once your transaction has 1 confirmation, revisit this page and then use the form which will appear in order to wear your new membership. Your transaction will not be registered until it has 1 confirmation. Bitcoin network fees and exchange/wallet withdrawal fees will not count toward your payment.

$13.099 in bitfinex which is the lowest price in all the exchanges. Wake me up tomorrow at $15k please  Grin

No one woke me up. Bad boys



Edit : $15500 Bitstamp and $+16500 coinbase woooooooooooot, best awaken dream ever

Will it hit 20K $ by end of 2017

It required 6 days to pass $11k to $12k and +1000 dollars was made in one day to reach $13k. If we continue like that $20k should be easy

Let me correct that for you
I'm curious if you are revising the BTC amount for this service as  BTC goes through the roof?  $13K  today.

I am not sure but isn't the price already adjusted (by theymos)? I checked it in preev and it is ~$29

Did you detect a disturbance in The Force?

Not yet for me, may the force be with us  Cry
Btw, anyone have the feeling that Wei H will become a legendary soon  Tongue

And i feel Lutpin using a new kind of tactics, not posting in the first day maybe? I may be 99% wrong
1296  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcointalk Account price estimator on: December 05, 2017, 10:06:58 PM
is there any way (by hand with a pen and paper or any staff like this ) to calculate potantial activity ?

Yes you can by knowing when every period starts and when it ends and if at least 1 post was made in each period in order to include it in the calcul of the potential activity.
Link for the periods https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12saLhlUoqIdairxzuSPu6EYGrt7FN2lOstO1yDjCEbA/htmlview?pli=1
For the periods before July 2015 you can calculate it knowing that the period lasts 14 days and starts in Tuesday.
1297  Economy / Speculation / Re: Good idea to short here. on: December 05, 2017, 07:32:00 PM
I'm not a professional but looking at the charts especially long term charts, it looks like we're due for a huge correction. My bet is we will see a sharp drop to $5k-$6k, just not sure if the whales will push it a few thousand higher before having their positions ready?

I just can't imagine why anyone would want to buy at this price.

People asked why should we buy at $500? Then the price passed $1000. Then they asked why should we buy at $1500 then it passed $2000. No we shouldn't buy at $3000, and the bitcoin price passed $5k. Then, no way to break $10k and here are we +$11k.
Until now, I just can't imagine why anyone wouldn't buy at this price.
1298  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns [Last update: 04-Dec-2017] on: December 05, 2017, 06:43:30 PM
There aren't very many sig campaigns here considering we are in a bubble... there were more before when the price was like $2,000-6,000.

You mean open one maybe? Because +30 campaigns isn't bad with the actual price (BTC vs USD). Of course, any signature campaign can fix its price with USD and pay people with BTC

Hi, i've been waiting for my posts to become activities... even this post will become my 38th post and still not be an activity? Is there a way i could still add-up my activity? Or my other posts be recognized under activity? Please advise...

You can make as many posts as you want but your activity will not increase more than 14 activities every 2 weeks (period).
You have to wait only, a new period will start today.
