Anyone not in Centra's Slack or Telegram and are asking where the codes are, better watch this video from the Centra's Chief Compliance/Legal Officer -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVf5m2IaZn0&feature=youtu.be


Saw the video, thanks for the link.
And it is understandable that they have to verify their customers . But it seems that it is taking very long. I hope that it will not be the case after they will get going , they are soltuions for faster verification process.

Overall right now I am comfortable with holding centra tokens and see bright future for them.

It seems that this is a good moment to buy. I think It will be few weeks until BTC will pick up speed again. Also it seems that BitCoinCash hype is slowing down now. The signs are there that it is time to buy BTc again.

Until you don't get the access code and log in to the app and validate the features yourself, this product does not make people happy.They have delayed the access code within the US-based on certain jurisdictions and their license approval, what about people outside the US and how are those being handled by them?

I live in Northern Europe and have the same "error", we cant get into application. As I mentioned before I think that it is their strategy to stall because they are not ready for the market yet.



The app is finished but in order to use it, to create an account, you need an access code provided by Centra team. The code will be sent to ICO participants, and for those who didnt participate on ICO I believe they claim a certain fee!

In some level it makes sense, but from business perspective - not much. Potential new customers will go for other app if they have to pay without seeing the actual product and will have to wait for CODE. It would be rational to think that the money making is in other kind of fee, there are a lot of options.

Why not to make some fast cash.. Cash went to the moon in short time period. Does not matter if it was a manipulation or not.
For me personally BCh was the worst investment and I am not touching it now.
1365  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO] CoinPoker: Poker future is today! on: November 13, 2017, 01:24:09 AM
I am sorry for my stupid question, may be... But what the difference between coin poker and normal online poker, for example? Why do we need this coin?

I will answer your question with my view.
I played poker for 5 years and did see some connection which were disturbing. That there is algorithms in place to try to make players to play more games and get more % out of them. This is the main reason why I do not believe regular POker rooms.

It would be great to have a poker room with transparency.

Also about the CoinPoker Client, I like the design till the point of table. It is more like PokerStars. I do not like that design. I like MicroGaming design, when you are sitting in centre.But thats just me.

I do not understand the situation with app also.
On November 1st they announced the app and other "big news".
But after i downloaded the app, i could not register, what the hell?
Why? It seems that they haven't finished it and are stalling using this added "security measure".
1369  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cash Raising! on: November 11, 2017, 08:34:52 PM
In my mind this is just a regular speculation, since btc now is down because of Segwit2x and there is little trust that other large cryptos can have a big up movement thus investment mainly goes to  Bitcoin cash.
1370  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Energy Based Projects on: November 11, 2017, 07:15:24 PM
There is this one. https://4new.co.uk/

Do anyone have some information about it?

For me it seems as Scam, since the wallet does not have funds even close to the total they are claiming that they have.
1371  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Centra Tech | Multi-Blockchain Worldwide Debit Card & Insured Wallet on: November 11, 2017, 06:39:30 PM
The stock price is rebounding at last.
But I think that it is because of general situation in market.

I have their tokens and have been watching them and do not understand their lack of communication with community.
I can understand that  they have a TON of work but why the bounties are not completed?
There always is a possibilities to hire someone especially because the ICO was success.

Accidentally made 2 entries in twitter campaign.

1373  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-11-08]Segwit2x "suspending our plans for the upcoming 2MB upgrade" on: November 08, 2017, 10:58:31 PM
I think it is obvious that we need to upgrade, a smooth upgrade for our community.


It isn't obvious at all.

The blocksize has already been "upgraded", 2 months ago. And the new limit's not even close to full yet.


And that makes it sound like constantly full blocks necessarily requires an increase; there are good arguments that the blocks should always be as close to full as possible for a proper fee market to work.





So saying "it's obvious" without even saying why doesn't really add much to the conversation. But here's what Mike Belshe (whoever he is) said:

Quote from: Mike Belshe
As fees rise on the blockchain, we believe it will eventually become obvious that on-chain capacity increases are necessary.

So even S2X representatives are tacitly admitting that the S2X fork wasn't needed right now anyway. 4MB is the blocksize today, and the 8MB (and not 2MB as the S2X people even now incorrectly state) increase proposed by Segwit2x would only invite problems when even 4MB isn't being used yet.

And once again, Bitcoin and it's community have demonstrated that social engineering (i.e. armies of paid liars cowering behind their anonymous forum handles) is the only weapon anti-Bitcoin wrecker have really got. And they keep failing. This is the 5th time (Bitcoin XT, Bitcoin Classic, Bitcoin Unlimited, Bitcoin Cash and then S2X) that big blocks forks have tried and failed, and:

  • Bitcoin Cash is now the Bitcoin with the magic big blocks (8MB max) that supposedly solves everything. And no-ones even using it (blocks are consistently less than 1MB)
  • Bitcoin itself now has 4MB max blocks, twice the size of the "it's only 2MB FFS!!!" screechers' wishes. And no-ones even using it (blocks are consistently less than 2MB)

Note that despite 4MB blocks in Bitcoin, big block psychopaths still refer to Bitcoin as "the 1MB Bitcoin".



No doubt you have good knowledge base and understanding about block chain.
Allow me to ask a question, than what would be the best solution for decreasing transaction fees to rational level? Rational being that it could be rational to use these transactions in every day payments.
1374  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-11-08] UTRUST ICO Reaches Soft Cap on Day One, On Track To Reach Hard Cap on: November 08, 2017, 09:02:24 PM
Quote
UTRUST, the Switzerland-based company that looks to target the 2.5 billion unbanked people globally, has quickly reached its soft cap of $10 million for its ICO, leaving UTRUST on a solid foundation to work from.

The demand continues in footsteps of its pre-ICO, which sold out in 90 minutes, with the $10 million mark reached on the first day of the public ICO, on November 2nd; UTRUST is well on its way to reach the $49 million mark.

https://coinidol.com/utrust-ico-reaches-soft-cap-day-one-on-track-to-reach-hard-cap/

This very good news because it send a statement that there are good and quality ICO s out there are they all are not just a scam or way to make a quick profit for big investors.

In my mind this is quite sad.
I think it is obvious that we need to upgrade, a smooth upgrade for our community. BTC would grow with smaller fees, it would get bigger recognition as payment not just as investment.
1376  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO] CoinPoker: Poker future is today! on: November 08, 2017, 12:02:37 AM
A bit disappointed , wanted to see more.
Will follow up and hope you will have done some more.

Would be willing to participate in successful poker block-chain project any way I can.
1377  Economy / Economics / Re: Can bitcoin improve the economy of a country? on: November 07, 2017, 10:55:26 PM
Very interesting thread!
I can see 2 ways how BTC can help economy.

1) Bring stability and electronic payments to countries which has high inflation and dont has the grid for electronic payments but has internet and mobile phones.

2) For developed countries btc can bring new technologies and companies thus innovation and new work spaces with jobs.
1378  Economy / Economics / Re: When will more retailers accept Bitcoin on: November 07, 2017, 10:51:09 PM
"Japan: No Bitcoin Tax, Thousands of Stores to Accept the Cryptocurrency"

article published July, 5, 2017
https://edgylabs.com/2017/07/05/japan-no-bitcoin-tax-stores-accept-cryptocurrency/

"AirRegi is a widely used, tablet-based point-of-sale app in Japan. Currently, around 260,000 establishments, stores, and commercial facilities use this proprietary app to accept payments from their clients."

It makes sense that a transition to accept bitcoin would be underway for more US-based stores.

I think that it is obvious - the problem being high transactions fees even for those businesses which are not afraid form this new tech. Also the lack of trusted companies which can ensure crypto payments for stores in other countries than Japan.
1379  Economy / Economics / Re: Is trading just educated guessing? on: November 07, 2017, 10:47:27 PM
I very like your definition.
My definition would say that it is educated decision with certain probability ( which is some how guessing).Also I would like to put emphasis on the ability to control emotions and trust your reasoning and if wrong ,learn from it.
Also there is difference between long term trading and short term trading.
1380  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Freedom on: November 07, 2017, 10:29:46 PM
The post is a bit dramatic but has some truth about freedom.
I see freedom as in asset, this is a bit overshadowed because of volatility.
And I see freedom in transactions over the globe  and hope we will have a solution escrow problem soon. In order to implement the block-chain in online shops.
