12821  Economy / Speculation / Re: People more likely to buy if price goes up or if price goes down on: March 08, 2018, 09:09:49 PM
When the price is high, everyone is hoping that the price goes down so they can buy cheap.

But when the price goes down, everyone ask "Should I sell??"

12823  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin stolen from Electrum wallet on: March 08, 2018, 08:49:00 PM
This discussion is nonsense.
Electrum is a very good initiative, but unless it is working on airgapped computer , even a linux, it doesn't share the same security as a hardware wallet.

And you can anytime recover your funds from any wallet, the only thing you need is the private key. This concern about going something wrong with the hardware, doesn't affect your funds. Your coins are in the blockchain, not in the hardware.

Personally i don't like Electrum (and this crazy seed only recognized by electrum, I didn't knew about that... well, i like it even less now)

Ja existe o local bitcoins que faz isso que voce falou e é usado no mundo todo.

Mas não vejo ganhos em relaçao as exchanges, devido a segurança.

Confio mais em uma exchange do que qualquer escrow service.

A única possibilidade que vejo para que eu comece a usar um serviço assim é que a plataforma p2p seja regida por smartcontracts, e tenha tb um fiat gateway (que eu possa comprar bitcoin com reais).

Que eu saiba não existe nada assim no mundo hoje. As exchanges p2p que são regidas por smartcontracts não tem fiat gateway, são somente cryptoxcrypto.

If you use windows, you need to take a few precautions:

-Use Firefox latest version
-Download uBlock Extension + Decentraleyes Extension
-Download Malware bytes, updated it daily
-Use windows 10, updated it daily/weekly
-Before downloading anything try it here http://virustotal.com/
-Use windows defender updated.

These are very basically steps. If you had follows them, you wouldn't be infect... ublock will block most of those phishing sites and malware bytes will take care of the rest.

Inform Binance and show them all information you have (screenshots, keylogger, eletrum..)

Personally, i don't trust windows wallets. I prefer to use webwallets like blockchain.info or mobile wallets like coinomi or samourai. Even if you computer if infected, you probably woudn't be robbed....

Hardwallet are much better and should be used if you have more than 1 in my opinion.
12827  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Wife wants half of my cryptos and wants me to sell half of all our holdings now. on: March 08, 2018, 01:27:49 PM
Umm... Women problem, you should sell at least 25% of your crypto savings and give her the money that way you can have a peace of mind. The problem with women when it comes to money they lose their mind, and if don't provide the quick solution by giving them some you're going to be in serious trouble. I believe by now, you've learned a very good lesson; which is never show all your investments to a woman because the majority of them only know how to spend not to invest for long-term. Cheesy

This is an strategy, but I think in a marriage both should be clear with each other. I show my wife all my investments. I think that's important to give some financial education for you wife.
For the couple to prosper financially both need to be clear with each other, and respect each others decisions.

12828  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Wife wants half of my cryptos and wants me to sell half of all our holdings now. on: March 08, 2018, 01:21:25 PM
Hi.

So my wife wants me to sell half of my cryptos like right now.  We invested early last year.  She claims its half hers b/c I live in California and its half hers as community property.  She didn't put any money into it it was my hard earn money that I had to risk.

I'm a long term investor in the tech and starting to do comfortable small responsible trades.  No all in Yolo stuff just learning as I go and using small amounts.

She's fed up with our on paper loses in crypto losing a tad over half of our total max holdings since the bull run.  She can't handle the volatility in a bear trend.  She handled it much better in a bull run.

What should I do? Sell half to keep her happy despite i'll be selling in a bear market getting around halfway or close to Bottoms?

Should I do my best to fight back and force her to invest long term?

I tried my best to tell her think long term but it's not getting through to her.  She's just very upset about our on paper losses.  We argue over this a lot almost daily and I don't know what to do.

Any suggestions?


Look, everything depends on the relation between you too.

I am married too, and my wife has invested in crypto too, about 5% of our total crypto investment is her money. She is crazy about times to buy and sell... but i always convinced her about not selling.

Anyway, I think there are a few things that you should think about:
-Are you guys ok in your relation? Is she thinking about divorce? In a divorce situation half of it would be hers. Is that what she is thinking and trying to say?
-It's your money, you earned it and you invested in it. You don't need permission to buy crypto if you want. Does she asks you permition  to buy cloths? Why don't you ask her to sell her cloths if she wants money?

If she is thinking about divorce, and wants half, just sell all your crypto and buy Monero. 100% untraceable.
Tell her you lost all daytrading (give her 5-10% lol).

If you guys are ok and love each other, explain to her, convince her. Tell her she must trust you. She is may be overinvested, and someone who is overinvested don't make rational decisions.

In my opinion this looks like more a relation problem (about trust and freedom and interests) than an investment problem.
I suggest you take a look at this community in reddit, The RedPill. and this post about frame control. Make some fast reading, good thoughts about relationships in a male point of view.
12829  Local / Criptomoedas Alternativas / Re: Moedas pré-mineradas on: March 08, 2018, 12:37:19 PM
Moedas pré mineradas = centralização.

Quem pre minerou as moedas detem boa parte do marketcap. Dessa forma eles podem manipular o preço, vender tudo dum dia pro outro, etc...
Em geral são as coins mais mal vistas pela comunidade: ripple, dash, nem.

A coin pode ser premined ou instamined e não ter problema algum, se eles souberem contornar os efeitos negativos disso.
Podem ser feitos Airdrops, Venda das coins pre mineradas (ICO por exemplo), venda para parceiros estrategicos.

O negócio é que muitas premined coins são scam mesmo. Tipo TRX que o fundador falou que ia travar as premined coins dele até 2025 e vendeu próximo do ATH no final de 2017 ou inicio de 2018.

Pois é...
tb acredito que muita gente não saiba, por isso fiz o tópico.
É muito importante fazer isso, pois essas contas tem valor para nós.

Voce tem opcão de colocar um endereço no seu profile, mas o hacker pode tirar ele de lá.
Se tiver num quote de outra pessoa, ele não consegue. Dai voce faz uma mensagem e o administrador do forum te devolve a conta,

Thanks to merit system...i have lost all hopes now to rank up any way close to Sr.Member or even Full member ever...i think the users like me are in huge disadvantage now...because i dont think many users care about giving merit to anyone...i think if givers are 10 and recievers are thousands or even more in the ratio..even if some day i get lucky and some one give me merit...it will take many decades to reach Sr.Member like that...
Also the fact that a user can give only half the merit he recieved and all those concepts i think are huge disadvantage for a user like me...
I know this issue has been raised many times and i shared my feeling which is this is really unfair for all the users like me

Look, there are a LOT of members, Sr. Members, Full Members and even legendary that don't know anything about bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency. They have tons of sMerit to give, and they can give to you if you show some knowledge or help them.

I was amazed how people with accounts from 2013, 2014 don't know very basic stuff. I am in cryptocurrency for only a year but I was amazed by the technology and the market, and I am eager to learn since day one. I am sad that I spent most of my time in Reddit and didn't create an account here before.

I believe that even if you don't know much, there are some things you know that can help many people. Maybe even a good question can earn some merit

There are many Legendary, Heroes etc with good heart and they award good posts.
Maybe you help some newbie, and a Legendary with tons of merit likes your post and gives you some sMerit.

But you need to try. Need to look for real uses for this forum.
12834  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How to create a segwit wallet on: March 08, 2018, 01:57:51 AM
Segwit addresses are nothing but soft fork which solves the long debated scalability and malleability issue of the bitcoin. They just segregates or takes away the signature out of the transaction data, so that the signatures can't be changed at a later time to prevent the losing or stealing of btc. By this way a size of the transaction becomes lower and hence more transactions can be filled inside a block and increasing the transaction speed and there by reducing the fees.
Many of the wallets are opting for segwit day by day and the latest one being the Core wallet.

Wallets which support segwit addresses:

Hardware Wallets:
Hardware wallets has been a great deal of storage for people using cryptos. Nano Ledger and Trezor are the best wallets out there to store your crypto assets safely and first and quick in implementing newer stuffs. Not only they support segwits, they also allow you to change the fees of satoshis/byte.

Desktop Wallets:
When coming to desktop wallets, the best one will be the classic core wallet. But Core adopted segwit just this week and it is pretty new. You can also use Electrum for segwit supports, as they adopted segwits prior to core. Just go the official Core/Electrum website and download the latest version and set up the wallet.

Web/Mobile Wallets:
Green Address and Greenbits has been an early adopter of segwit and they are really secure. Greenbits was the first mobile wallet to implement segwit and if you need to try web wallet, go for Green Address.

Paper Wallets:
The classic way of storing coins in earlier days were Paper. If you are a paper wallet user, reach out for segwitaddress.org where you can create your own segwit wallet.

Good post.

I just want to add Samourai Wallet to mobile wallets list. Pretty good wallet.
12835  Local / Português (Portuguese) / Re: Binance hackeada? API comprometida? Bot? on: March 08, 2018, 01:52:11 AM
Li por alto algumas coisas por aí, twitter, reddit... e parece que a história ainda está mal contada. O que parece ser certo? De alguma forma despejaram moedas e compraram VIA... isso é certo só de ver os gráficos. Agora resta saber quem foi atingido com isso, tem pessoas falando que houve essa movimentação na conta e nunca geraram uma api key para bot o que é estranho. A Binance afirma que o problema ocorreu somente em contas que usam bots... Vamos ver o desenrolar dos fatos, tomara que não seja nada com a Binance de fato.

Cara eu me lembro em setembro do ano passado a Binance não era nada.
Eu criei uma conta lá pra comprar uma moeda pouco conhecida na epoca, link, que só tinha lá.
Agora virou uma das 3 maiores exchanges do mundo em volume... Basicamente por ter qualquer altcoin.

Dai os caras tem um furo no API e tal, e o preço do BTC despenca por causa deles. Que mercado maluco....

I find those polls like "do you believe in global warming" so crazy.

Global warming, if real, was supposed to be something precise, a fact, something you can prove.

These polls look like "do you believe in santa claus? Do you believe in god?"

Global Warming is like faith, religion, ideology.. anything but science. People who have never opened a science book in their lives are full of ideas and solutions about global warming.


To be precise, nobody even calls it global warming anymore!
Now it's called Climate Change.
Why did they change the name? Climate change does not suppose the Earth is getting warmer, jsut that we need to change our energy system. But why? To vote in left wing parties
12839  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Serious Institutions can never accept Bitcoin on: March 07, 2018, 08:38:55 PM
No serious financial institution can support the energy wastefulness of Proof of work. The extreme power waste does not fly in a world combating global heating and excess wastefulness. To be caught sporting that kind of waste would be bad optics.

You must mean global warming, not global heating, and what's bad optics? Stop using google translate you moron!
And I'm not calling you a moron purely because of the google translate, but rather because of using the global warming argument. Global warming is not real. 2012 was the first year in 30 years when it was snowing in Rome, this year it happened again. Tell them that it's getting warmer! Cheesy
If you're worried about energy being wasted start with your own home and turn off all those electronics that you keep on standby.

You should learn about statistics before you start calling people moron, lest you look stupid yourself.
One odd year out does not change a trend. Even if you are correct, the vast majority of the scientists and public still believe in global warming and that is what big institutions care about. They are all about keeping public image.
Which ties into Bad Optics. It's a media term for "looking bad in press or on television" more or less. Even if you don't know what bad optics mean, the big banks do and is why they won't ever touch Proof-of-Work.  

https://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/03/31/18010/

Take a look at this site.

It explains why scientists and many people think global warming is not real.
Even if you think it's real, it's important to know why many people think the opposite.

There is always a debate but to be frank, the big institutions don't care all that much about what turns out to be true 30 years down the road. They care about how they will look in the present.
Like or dislike it, global warming is a huge deal in the eyes of the public and as such also a huge deal for big business. That is why PoW is a doomed concept.

Trump and Brexit and showing us that Political correctness is not that popular anymore my friend. Even in developing countries...

And Nano, Iota, all those fast and free transaction services have not been tested as bitcoin has in terms of security.

Well, let's wait to see how it goes... I believe in bitcoin
