Auditing of smart contract really very important if you are running a legit ICO. Auditing is nothing but giving your code to the auditor to check if it is working based on the design. There are lots of auditors who can audit your contract. On the side note, auditing can also bring a positive response for your ICO where most of the investors check for the audits.

Proper auditing can be done easily by hiring a good auditing company. They just check your contracts for errors in the code and correct them. New alchemy, Solidified,Experfy, Openxcell, Zeppelin are some of the popular smart contract auditors to work with.

As Xynerise said, ropsten is a testnet to check your contract is working properly according to the vision in the testing environment. Audits mostly take place in ropsten network only I guess.

What this thread has to do with Altcoin Discussion   As you are talking about an exchange, this should either be in Service Discussion or Scam Accusations considering the fact that you are saying that you have been scammed. Use Move Topic in bottom left corner to move the topic to appropriate board and to get noticed.

Regarding your 2Fa, try responding only to mails from the support@coinbene.com. And I just did a small research for you. Xatom seems to be a working dev team for coinbene exchange. Almost in all the coinbene social channels, xatom mail has been described as their official dev team which can help us. Try to stick to the xatom mail and follow the instructions along with them to retrieve your coins. Its better not to use their Telegram account for responding as telegram seems to be filled with scammers trying to steal your coins.

Also, I have seen many previous cases like yours. Most probably, Coinbene strongly suggests you to store your 2fa password/key which could be helpful while retrieving during lost phone or similar cases like yours. Also, once you have written the mail to the support, your account would be inaccessible via google authenticator and would be likely fixed only after your conversation with xatom team and regaining your 2fa access.

 Also, try to ignore the signature spammer posts and continue with your effort to contacting the xatom team.

I agree with your statement. As to what satoshi mentioned in his paper, his main intention was to use the electronic transaction without a third party and to prevent the double spending problem which was prevailing in the earlier predecessor of bitcoin (hashcash and b-money). He has never discussed about the inflation, though he has stated that his main goal was to create a immutable currency. He might have thought that the capped supply could prevent inflation in the value and a stable price would be reached. But since miners receive the coins every 10 minutes, this speculative value won't reach a stable price soon.

As the quote reads "Bitcoin market is highly speculative and largely unregulated. Invest in them which you can afford to lose". This wasn't the one satoshi thought and investing in btc ain't an investment. Does anyone consider having money in their fiat raise in future? For instance, one has $10000 this year and has kept them in secret shelf for 10 years. Once after 10 yrs, this would be the same $10000. Bitcoin is meant to be used as a payment tool and a digital alternative to the fiat money rather than investing and Holding them for future profits. Bitcoin was not created to be used as an alternative to Gold/Silver which would appreciate in future. Limitation in total supply is another factor which is why Bitcoin is being compared to Gold.

Hence there should be adequate adoption of btc in the daily lives of people. For this to happen there needs to be a large portion of the coins to be circulated among the people rather than whales holding them in wallets. Moreover the cryptocurrency has become more of a holding stock rather than a using them as a digital money.

Above all, mining also consumes huge volume of electricity and money and price of the coin is also somehow based on the value to create a new one. Hence unless there isn't a larger adoption by the population,global acceptance and holders holding the btc, we won't see the speculation to end and the price will pump and dump always. There may be a larger adoption and global acceptance in future, but holders liquidating their btc would never happen and hence the rich gets richer. Also, btc is becoming more of a centralized currency with bitmain dominating the mining part. These doesn't seem to be a good road for btc dominating the fiat money.

What do you mean by dense environment? Does this mean anonymity? If so, you can go with Monero as they use stealth address technology which can be quite difficult to track one's transactions. When coming to anonymity, Monero seems to be a better and stands upright in terms of anonymous currency. While considering the tps of Monero, it has a max of 1000tps.

While you want a platform to develop an dapp, you can go for various platforms such as Ethereum, Omisego, EOS. Since EOS moved to mainnet, they do have their own independent blockchain. But if you need to use the fastest platform, you need to neglect eth as they can handle only 15tps.

Omisego once after the introduction of plasma protocol has the potential of reaching 1 million tps. I am not really sure, how they can scale such highly. Then comes NEM, Bit shares, Stratis etc.

I don't think it would become a mess if the entry threshold was kept quite high.
Reporters only board seems to be a good idea along with the merit receivers board. In addition, to the above boards how about having a chat platform integrated along with these additional boards as pugman has suggested? These chat platforms and boards can be used and seen only if the user reaches a certain threshold of minimum merit and minimum reports something around like 300-350 for merits and 1000+ for reports. The boards can be placed somewhere in the Others section and the access of chat platform can be kept nearer to the search button. There is only a minimum possibility of a user who has received 300-350 merits or one who has reported 1000+ reports spamming the chats. There can be atleast one dedicated mod for chats to take place fairly. I don't think it's necessary to place a separate mod for merits and report board as I assume that there would be only good discussions regarding the improvement of the quality in posts and the defending of the newbies and bump bots.

An accessible chat platform can be something like this...



Actually I used inspect element feature to check that how one could look in real time scenario. Moreover, Donate section is no longer useful, as none would donate 70000$ for the forum with the current btc prices. Hence removing the Donate button and page completely and replacing them with chats would be a good idea.

Inside the chat section may look something like this...



And in order to differentiate the ranks, we can use certain colors for each rank like
Admin - Red , Legendary - Blue and so on... These types of chat sections can bring unity among the like minded members of the forum and may be helpful in patrolling, reporting and quality posting.

Good morning and good luck everyone  

Was browsing through the B&H and caught a thread which was full of plagiarism posts back to back . Text spinning seems to be a new way to hide their stealing work I guess

EDIT :

Found some more while browsing through the Altcoin Discussion. Both Newbie and Jr.Member were plagiarizing in the same thread.

I can't comment on the situation as to why I have been accepted by Zapo while having only 104 107 merits and not meeting the minimum requirements. It is up-to them to accept my application or deny them. But, I don't post for the sake of completing my 10 or 25 posts. On the other hand, I don't even care how much posts I make per week. All I care about is how helpful they are. I have been given lots of "Not enough posts" by bounty managers for not completing minimum posting requirement and for posting in Serious Discussion,B&H board. I use these signatures as an incentive for my posting, promoting legit ICO's,coins and masternodes and not for bounty hunting.

Even if my acceptance creates a chaos and Zapo accepts both of you considering the minimum merit requirement and orders me to leave the campaign, I would just leave without questioning them. A bounty manager has the rights of denying or accepting a member. Forcing a participant to post 25-30 posts/week generally results in poor quality posts. That's the reason why I have never participated in a btc campaign as most of them demand a minimum count of 25. This campaign just had the minimum posts of 10 which I thought it would be good for me to make some helpful posts.

Good luck all 

You are a good old generous progeria diseased baby iasenko
Hope you get aged as others do and not rapidly as in your avatar

Thanks for the giveaway bro

What krog raffles are completely just for fun and do not have any real world value(I assume). He is doing this completely for the sake he is in good mood. Hence this should be kept only as a showpiece.

Whereas what it gets sold in Auctions and in sites are real physical btc. They do have hologram tampered priv keys. Some like btcc, the prestigious Casascius, satori coins, and some others come pre funded with btc. Whereas some like Kialara come unfunded and we can find them if we need. You can even buy funded/unfunded coins from Denarium website.

Note that once if we fund bars like Kialara, we need to break the complete masterpiece artwork in order to retrieve our coins. Hence most of the collectors won't involve in such a activity of funding them.

Since they are very limited in number during production, they rise in value as time passes due to their rarity.

You can win auctions in collectibles section and collect these coins which may appreciate in value in future. For instance, mike was the first one to design the physical btc. While he sold his coins funded, they were very cheap and the price of owning them has risen 10-15x the price today.

Same with Kialara too. Last yr 1 bitcoin moon bar and suite unfunded was sold in Kialara official website for 2000$. Since the total production number is just as little as 21, it is being auctioned at a price of 3-10BTC

All in all, it's better to collect physicals rather than shitty altcoins
Hope you got answers

Edit : After krog pointed me out to his really very informative thread on Bitbills, I learnt that Mike wasn't the first one to create the physical btc but was popular enough.

Good luck everyone

I wonder what would be on 100th one. Will that be a Titanium/Denarium/Kialara/Casascius/a simple polymerbit note

All the 104 merits were received by me for the posts I made, none of them were airdropped like the spammers who own a shit ton of free airdropped merits.

Hey julerz12,

With due permission of yours, I would like to leave the signature campaign I have been part of. My spreadsheet number is 85 in signature campaign category and I have been credited with 360 stakes till now. Kindly update in the sheet that I have left the campaign and no longer a part of it and please don't credit me stakes from this week. Traxion is one of the greatest platform and first of the kind based on Hyperledger platform. Once I have submitted my articles by this week, I would be signing up for the validation form provided by you.

Before the tickets are gone, it's

Good luck everyone 

Anycoin has given a good insight on hybrid PoW and PoS. But are you asking about the shifting of a coin from PoW to PoS or about using both the algorithms as a combined one? Both seems to be different when it comes to existence

The shifting of the mining process from PoW to PoS algorithm will be carried out by VB in the hard fork Casper where the Eth chain will no longer be mined using the PoW algorithm and huge computational power won't be spent in mining them. In order the shift practically from PoW to PoS, eth implements a unique idea known as "Ethereum Ice Age". This event seems to take place in the future(10-12 months) where at a point a miner cannot mine the block due to the exponential rise in the difficulty of the chain. This prompts them to shift to the Casper protocol which uses the PoS algorithm where the miner would be chosen based on the amount of stakes he hold in ethereum. This is one of the technique of using the hybrid PoW-PoS algorithm.

---

On the contrary, if you are asking about a mix of both the algorithms it would happen something like a "Casper embedded with Bitcoin". Though bitcoin would always stick to the PoW mining method where the first miner who builds the block and finds the nounce receives the block reward. If a mix of both these algorithm occurs, the miner should be owning a good stake in the currency and one who has the largest share will most probably mine the next one. It may happen something like using the computation power for PoW at first and then need to own stakes in the currency  for the PoS part and I don't think a mix of both of these could work out possibly.
Hope this helps

It does cover the loan value
0.7ETH equals 283USD
18500 TGAME equals 303USD

Is it acceptable?
If not then it's alright mate!
Thanks

EDIT : OK then, how much coins do you expect to be paid as collateral?

Loan Amount: 0.7ETH

@iasenko you have been really doing quite a lot of work for the welfare of the forum. Since you haven't reserved the first reply of your's for any updates regarding the thread, could you add something like members and their reserved account posts somewhere separately in a reply and link them to OP. It is little bit confusing of who has reserved which sets of cases for reporting 

As ETF said, there are certain consensus that needs to be followed which are proposed by satoshi. They are not meant to be broken and re-written. There aren't something like VB of ethereum for btc where they can move from PoW to PoS easily. Btc is purely decentralized where consensus would be changed only upon acceptance of the community.If that would have been broken, there wouldn't have been a possibility of splitting the chain which lead to the BCH fork. There were huge conflicts which occurred in BTC environment which lead to the BCH fork of having higher block size of 8mb. Hence, increasing the block reward won't happen or may happen on the contrary if almost majority who uses the currency accepts these consensus.
If the block reward has been fixed to 1btc, doesn't this increase the total supply on a longer term?

I am literally still feared of this alleged 51% attack. Bitmain is already in control of around 40-45% of total hashing rate. If in future bitmain reaches the 51%, it has a high possibility of creating a dreaded chaos in the whole crypto universe which may range from double spending to mining and acceptance of blocks.

BTC is still young and needs time to mature. Within 9 yrs of existence there has been numerous development in the btc space which makes them increasingly convincing to use along with the fiat money. While the transactions peaked, segwit was introduced which made to fill up the blocks with increasing number of transactions without disturbing the consensus. There were LN where off-chain transactions took place. Hence there would be numerous development in order to make the transactions cheaper and lot more user friendly.

Basing my assumption, increasing difficulty on the other hand, may be tackled by some future quantum computers if they exist or there would be something superior to ASIC mining etc.
