Sure, there's definitely a lot of fud going around always. But if some social media platform bans advertisements of crypto it doesn't automatically mean that it's because they wanted to bring down the prices for them to buy lower. Take note that Facebook, Google, etc are very well established companies. It's really really unlikely for a well established company to invest their funds on a volatile asset, also knowing that it wouldn't even benefit their company whatsoever. It's really just because they most likely want the cryptocurrency scams and ponzis out of their platforms. Not everyone is planning on buying crypto. Deal with it.

Just hang out over at the Announcements (Altcoins) subforum here on bitcointalk. New projects are usually posted there.

If you don't want to do an ICO, then why not do airdrops instead? Distributing funds via faucets will take a lot of time; and I don't think people will spend a lot of time doing faucets on a coin that is currently almost worth nothing.

Your coins getting listed on exchanges are gonna cost money. I don't know how much specifically as it depends on the exchange, but it's gonna be quite a bit of money.

Legit or not, I don't think cloud mining can be profitable. Though looking at ice rock mining's site, it's pretty sketchy in my opinion. Based on their site, for $1000 your monthly income would be:

Sure looks good in paper, but too good to be true in my opinion. I'd personally stay away from those kinds of sites, especially those ones with a promised amount of income.
15347  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: CyberMiles vs Bitcoin, Which coin do you prefer? on: March 26, 2018, 05:46:53 PM
Just taking a look at cybermile's website, no freakin way that it will have equal prices with bitcoin. It's total supply is 1,000,000,000. How will that actually be equal in price with bitcoin? Pretty impossible. More benefits than bitcoin? Definitely not.

Shilling skills are weak, for sure.
15348  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: can someone explain why so many ICO's are scams? on: March 26, 2018, 04:30:19 PM
What do you not understand about the concept? People pay a lot of BTC/ETH for ICOs; usually even without doing any research, people just go in based on hype. So scammers created scam ICOs to make money off people. Pretty simple, really.

I'd say, probably only 7% of projects have real teams with real goals. and only a fraction of that percentage has a chance of succeeding. Take note that these are just numbers that are very rough estimates of mine.
15349  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Cloud mining on: March 26, 2018, 12:40:42 PM
Whether or not a cloud mining service is legit or not, I really doubt it will be profitable. Best case scenario is that you'd break-even from your investment cost. If you want to profit from mining, then do real mining and purchase proper hardware.
15350  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin on deepweb, real or scam? on: March 26, 2018, 05:47:41 AM
I personally don't visit the deepweb(and definitely never bought there), but I'm pretty sure some(or maybe most) of those sellers are actually scammers. Why? They can easily take advantage of their anonymity on the deepweb. I'm pretty sure there's legit and trusted sites there though.
15351  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the best cryptocurrency for micropayment. on: March 25, 2018, 04:07:27 AM
Probably NANO? Due to it's zero fees and fast transaction speed. I really don't know how unsecure and centralized it is though, so I'd personally will still surely stick with bitcoin. Just wait for bitcoin's lightning network to take up adoption.

It would be fun.The field of gaming will be expand much more and a lots people will take interest in gaming for the sake of money.

Gaming for the sake of money has been already a thing since forever. People make money by selling in-game items and streaming games. Also, blockchain+gaming doesn't necessarily mean people will be rewarded crypto for their gaming or in exchange for their items. It could be for database/security reasons (e.g. item duplication bugs).

When talking about gaming and blockchain technology together, you might want to check out Enjin. Very interesting stuff.

Imagine what happens when a game reward can traded for a new car in real life!?  Grin
You can already do that right now. Most online games(especially MMORPGs) with tradable items can be sold for USD, BTC, etc, with their respective black markets. But of course it would take you a lot of a certain game currency to buy a real life car.

      ......
What's funny is that, most of the people on most social media sites that have asked me advice on starting a cryptocurrency, doesn't even have a clear goal on what they want to make.

The conversation almost always goes like:

person: hey, I'm planning on creating and running my own cryptocurrency. Can you give me advice?
me: ok. First off, what kind of coin are you planning on making? for what purpose? specifications?
person: I just want to create my own coin, probably like bitcoin or ethereum
me:
            

I appreciate the merit!

My problem is, I know I have skills and ability to be a valuable asset. The problem is, I need to learn a lot, and I do not have a lot to show for what I can do. So, I'm stuck with teams with less experience, or, I'm in a bigger project right now. However, there is absolutely no communication. Stuff seems to be getting done, but a lot is left unanswered.

As an engineer, I strive for organization, clarity, ease of use, and many more aspects that apply to crypto as well. I try to do things methodically, and without repetition. Some people just don't get the concept.

You're very welcome. Tongue

Don't worry. Even though how good you are at a certain industry in the technology world, you always have something to learn as technology evolves so fast.

About your project: looks like you're probably overqualified for you group. Maybe address your complaint to them? Communication is definitely very important in any project, whether or not it'd be on the blockchain industry or not. If you don't attempt to address it soon, you're gonna have a lot of inevitable problems further into the project.[/list][/list]

  • Set a project plan
    • One thing I have seen in some of the projects is a lack of a true roadmap and set of goals to achieve. It is imperative that the goals are outlined and updated as needed so the team, and clients, know what to look forward to. I have seen teams work by flying by the seat of their pants. It's not an effective way to get anything done.

15357  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor and Nano Ledger private key security. on: March 23, 2018, 05:47:45 PM
The interface is just a way to interact with your hardware wallet. The device does the signing, so the private keys never leave it.
so even if hackers breached into a PC they would not be able to get the private key because it is simply offline even while my Trezor is connected via USB.

Yes. I'm pretty sure you can safely send a transaction using your Trezor or LedgerNanoS on an malware-infested computer, just make sure that the BTC is actually being sent to the correct address. There are viruses that detects when you copy an address, and when you paste it, it pastes the hacker's wallet address instead. Just take note of that.

Nah mate, it doesn't mean that you're prediction/analysis has always been right in the past it doesn't automatically mean it's going to be right forever.

Why are Newbies so lazy?

Try reading the stickied thread called Newbies - Read before posting. Then, you will have your answers.

Thanks, but this not answerde my question withthis forum is so oldschool and how i can change the Size and the colour of one Text.

Its like 25 years ago.

You need some glasses m8.



To answer your question, it's probably because this forum has so much data in it that it would be a huge hassle to move everything to a new forum software; also take in to consideration the potential huge downtime.

Also, SMF(the forum software bitcointalk is currently using) is probably significantly more secure compared to other forum software like invisioncommunity, though I'm not really 100% sure. Also, SMF probably saves a lot of space too, being sort of light-weight.
15360  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How CoinMarketCap manipulates the market by showing fraudulent information on: March 23, 2018, 04:43:30 PM
The market manipulation part is over exaggerated in my opinion. The only possible "price manipulation" attempt I saw was when they removed the Korean exchanges from where they base the prices. Though it definitely affected some people's views on the price, if ever it caused FUD, I don't think that was their intention at all.

Also, use LiveCoinWatch!  Tongue
