13141  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitconnect scam the reason for this awful bear market? on: June 04, 2018, 01:37:45 PM
It's not bitconnect's fault at all.
Btc and cryptocurrencies in general are now in mainstream media, governments are discussing banning and regulations, banning ICOs and so on... Bitcoin etf is not here yet... News are not very good now as they were last year.

If you take a look at btc graphics along the years, bear markets lasted for months and some time even years.

Maybe we will only reach 20k again in 2019 or 2020.
Remember that this a long term investment.

When my Gox collapsed btc needed years to recover. Be patient, buy and hodl.

If you are in a accumulation phase, the best thing you can wish for is a bear market. You will accumulatemuch more

I think privacy comes apart, when money is involved. I saw this happening on this forum when Ripple was introduced. People only had to link with their Facebook account to get some FREE Ripple in the beginning. This immediately compromised most of these people and their account was linked to their real identity. <if they used their real account, they DOXed themselves>
I missed out on the Ripple giveaway, but I got some Stellar Lumens last year. The trick is to be conscious about your privacy all the time: it was very easy to create a fake Facebook account, you can even use Tor (on the beautiful address facebookcorewwwi.onion). I've tested it, and it worked.
Once you neglect your privacy, it's gone forever. That's why it doesn't hurt to have some accounts without your real name ready, and a spare prepaid phone number for verifications.

Having a fake Facebook account ready is a good idea.
Exposing your real Facebook account to a giveaway and linking it to cryptocurrencies may even be dangerous, as you can become a target online.

For me betting is one kind of addict.
Coffee is addictive too, most of the Western world depends on it. That doesn't make it morally wrong.

People become addicted on it. Then he can't able to understand he is going loss his capital.
If someone is going to gamble away his life, he'll find a way no matter what.

The only bad thing I see, is using a Forkcoin instead of Bitcoin Tongue

Crypto is more addictive than coffee and betting.
Since the first day I read about bitcoin,  I am addicted, reading about it everyday and checking prices on almost daily basis lol

Maybe cryptocurrency is a kind of bet, betting in a technology?

Será irmão? Imagina só, eu compro BTC em uma exchange X, depois transfiro para um endereço BTC criado fora da exchange. Como é que alguém pode afirma com certeza que aquele segundo endereço é meu? E além disso, se eu uso o dinheiro ali e gero renda com os BTC de lá, como vc imagina que seria o recolhimento fiscal/tributário em cima desta operação?

See o endereço não é seu, é de quem? A receita pode pedir pra vc explicar. Se vc é pego na mentira pode ser pior.

Até quando vc compra uma caixa de fósforo com dinheiro vivo o governo cobra imposto.
Lembra de dinheiro é muito mais não rastreável e anônimo do que bitcoin.

Com o tempo o governo pode tb criar mecanismos de fiscalização.
Podem por exemplo exigir um registro prévio de endereços em btc pra te dar um alvará de funcionamento, coisas assim. E qq movimentação neles já é rastreada. Se vc é pego usando endereços não cadastrado já toma multa...

Existem até arquivos xpub que são uma seed com todas os bilhões de endereços públicos que são possíveis de serem gerados por uma carteira...

Imposto sempre vai ter,não se preocupe. Como tem aquela frase famosa "tudo na vida é incerto, menos a morte e impostos" algo assim.

Meus parabéns pelo artigo, só de escrevê-lo seria para mim um orgulho.

Deixando de lado um pouco o papel das mídias acerca do Bitcoin e das Altcoins, você tocou em um ponto importante. Gostaria de saber sua opinião a respeito de um mundo onde as cryptos substituíssem as moedas locais. Quando penso nisso, vejo que surgiriam diversos problemas para o convívio em sociedade, pelo menos na maioria delas, senão em todas, por conta dos modelos de organização de sociedades existentes hoje. Veja, por exemplo:
 
  • Taxações e tributações sobre transações deixariam de existir (imagino), talvez até fosse possível tributar produtos e vendas de serviço, mas realmente não estou seguro da eficácia.
  • Serviços básicos de saúde, segurança, transporte, educação, iluminação, pavimentação, etc... estariam em risco.

Esses pontos pesam do lado negativo, entretanto tenham solução viável... e agora, mesmo sabendo que talvez seja um tanto quanto utópico, falando de pontos positivos, seriam exemplos:

  • Possibilidade de livre comércio e moeda global única.
  • Mudança de paradigma e rompimento de fronteiras, passando a enfraquecer o Estado e tendo uma visão de um ente mais global como organizador da vida.
  • Despertar de uma maior consciência de cada indivíduo, podendo contribuir para determinados ecossistema de forma mais voluntária, mais direta.
  • ...

Se for muita viagem, apenas ignorem. Eu quis compartilhar um ponto de vista, mas é tarde e como sabem o sono pode produzir confusões em nossas "falas". Mas, se quiser contribuir neste raciocínio  Grin "come on!"

Vejo aqui muita gente acha que criptomoedas= sonegação fiscal.
Isso não acontece. Quem faz negócios em bitcoin pode sim pagar imposto, e na verdade DEVE.

Bitcoin não tem nada de anônimo, a não ser que use um coinmix da vida (os quais eu acredito estarem com os dias contados).

Se vc comprou cripto a partir de alguma Exchange ligada ao seu CPF, seu endereço já está ligado a ao seu CPF.

Sobre uma maior consciência global... Cara, é só um meio de pagamento descentralizado rsrs em vez de pagar com o cartão vc vai passar o celular no qr code. Não vejo como isso pode iluminar a consciência da humanidade rsrs

Bitcoin will never be extincted as only 2 running full nodes are necessaries to keep it alive.

But let's suppose a major bug is discovered somewhere on the code and billions are stolen and the price go near zero.

All your beloved shitcoins would be anihalated in the process.
Crypo community would be reduced to few bitcoin believers, as shitcoin supporters are just looking for a lambo.

13151  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Total number of addresses on: June 03, 2018, 01:38:09 PM

Im not quite  sure but doesnt every address have only 1 private key? Cheesy

Yes.

That's the total number of possible addresses
2^256= 115,792,089,237,316,195,423,570,985,008,687,907,853,269,984,665,640,564,039,457,584,007,913,129,639,936
13152  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Total number of addresses on: June 03, 2018, 12:56:17 PM
I was just scrolling through the forums and i saw a comment on how many percent of total bitcoin addresses was used, so i looked for the answer, i couldnt find anything specific so i will find my own answer Cheesy
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4405638.0
Number of possible bitcoin addresses- 1461501637330902918203684832716283019655932542976

Most unique addresses ever used (idk how this fluctuates but thats what i found online) -1,054,711

1,054,711 / 1461501637330902918203684832716283019655932542976= 7.2166255e-43

Which is 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000072166255% Of all addresses ever Cheesy

Funfact there are 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 number of atoms in the sun so if you assigned a bitcoin address to every attom in the sun you would get upto 0.001461% of the atoms covered! That might not seem like much but compared to other numbers this number is very big Smiley


Total number of possible privatekeys is 2^256 or in base 10 it would be 10^77.

2^256= 115,792,089,237,316,195,423,570,985,008,687,907,853,269,984,665,640,564,039,457,584,007,913,129,639,936

13153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why wouldn't you invest on ripple? on: June 03, 2018, 01:55:58 AM
Hello there,

I am new at this topics, many of my  friends said that ripple is the worst cryptocurrency,
 because don't represent the spirit of a cryptocurrency has to be.

May be someone can bring me more reasonable argument about why i wouldn't invest on ripple or in other hand, invest on it.

please, all the help will be appreciate because i want really learn all about crypto.



I never bought ripple, because everyone says that it is against crypto and blablaba

I am researching about it, and ripple has already good use cases. Santander bank is already using it for 50% of its international transactions, that's huge.

I am going to buy some soon.

Sometimes i do a transaction and i takes only 4 hours to complete,
on another day i do the same transaction with the same amount and
than it took 3 days before it is completed.
Can somebody tell me why? Do i have influence on it?
Regards Smiley

Transaction times depends on how much are you paying on fees.

On this website you can see how much you should pay in fees for confirmation in a determined amount of time.
https://estimatefee.com/

The catch is, fees vary a lot depending on network congestion. Fees are now very low, and you definitely should consolidate small inputs now. Fees are as low as 7 years ago.

13156  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Electroneum - After the fork on: June 02, 2018, 12:52:22 AM
Electroneum was the first ICO i participated. I sold all in the first day possible, with 7x gains. It was very good for me...
I am sad to see the coin price so low now, and people such as McAfee chilling it on twitter.

I really like the project, as a Monero fork and nice marketing. I hope electroneum recover from this terrible crash (90% down from ATH).

About the mobile miner, I didn't like it very much. It was easy to use, but the reward was sooo low, impossible to use for me. Like 1 cent per week lol

Few weeks ago these boards were more restricted as it was some other campaign.

So I put those boards on my watchlist and from time to time I check if there is something interesting going on.

Nothing, 90% of the boards are just spammers. It's very hard to find some post which I would like to comment.

13160  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Understanding Centralized Cryptocurrency on: May 30, 2018, 04:39:04 PM
There were other cryptocurrencies before bitcoin, but bitcoin was the first to survive because it was decentralized, inspired on a P2P file sharing. Thanks to satoshi who invented a decentralized consensus mechanism, the proof of work.

And this is totally misleading assumption.

Just consider it in comparision with modern banking system:

When you pay in non-cash way (either by card, paypal, cheque or wire transfer) - your need a third-party 'approval', i.e. your bank, paypal, VISA system or other similar institution.

When you transfer yor BTC - you need miner's 'approval', i.e. your transaction must be included in a block 'mined' by them.

So it's the same letters, just different alphabet.

When you pay by cash, contrary, you don't need anyone's 'approval' - and this is a real p2p.

You are wrong for the following reasons:

-Transactions are validate by all full nodes, not just miners. If you have a full node you are validating your transactions.
-miners are not third party.
- no miner can say which transactions he wants to approve. He can choose which transaction to add to a block only if he finds the nonce first than others miners.

- when you are paying with cash you need government approval. Government can say at any time that this physical cash is worthless, he will print new ones (we lived this a lot in Brazil). Your money just become worthless with a president signature.
