When will this madness end?
Who is willing to pay such amounts for a transaction?

Optimism upgrade in March
Berlin upgrade in April
London upgrade with EIP1559 upgrade in July

Ethereum is about to scale massively, that's why you've seen the recent marketing push from BSC and ADA, don't fall for it!
1562  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best Time For Alt Coins.. on: February 28, 2021, 05:42:49 AM
Once the bitcoin reaches 70% dominance, I think its a right time to invest in alt coins. Most of the alt coins are at bottom price now. I feel it's a great opportunity to invest in alt coins..

Are we Going to see Bull Run in Q1 2021? Is it a right time to invest in Alt Coins? What is your opinion on this?
No one has a crystal ball but here are the most likely scenarios:

Bitcoin ETF approved in the US, Bitcoin pumps to 100k then money flows back into alts.

XRP lawsuit dropped, XRP pump starts alt season.

Economic collapse, traders dump everything, including crypto. 1-2 months later a new quantum financial system emerges based on blockchain technology, all cryptos pump but Bitcoin likely loses it's #1 spot if lighting network isn't adopted or exists merely as a tokenized store of value on XRP/XLM/IOTA/HBAR/ETH.

Anyway, historically the largest gains have come from microcaps so I am loading up on ALCX and 0xMR too.
1563  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Altcoin Safe for Investment on: February 28, 2021, 05:38:26 AM
In now days too much Altcoin Project are Launching one by one and all of them claim that invest in his project because we will be successful in upcoming days but in the end they run away and make a scam. They don't woory about people fund and stole them.
So how we can trust on altcoin to give us profit after investment. Because most of them become Scam and Scam. All of them has one Aim how to stole too much fund .
So how we make altcoin investment safe ?
Why do you think the only way to invest in crypto is ICOs? You can buy any crypto on a centralized or decentralized exchange and trade it. If you invest in projects where the dev team controls the supply, or that raised funds from the public, you have the added risk of rugpulls, exit scams, and dumping. I've been investing in projects that had no ICO, raised no funds from the public, and where there is no dev wallet to dump on you and crash the price, like RVN and 0xMR. I'm sure there are others out there but those look the best to me right now. I heard Turtlecoin is doing an upgrade right now, maybe someone can enlighten me there.
1564  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: All hope is lost?? on: February 28, 2021, 05:35:31 AM
I used to have 14 ethereum but I got caught in the web of FOMO and I lost over 10 ethereum because the project I invested the ethereum on have dropped marginally, is this the end of the road for me? Or I still have hope? How can I recover?
If you "lost the ETH" by investing in other alts, you will likely recoup that ETH during the coming altcoin cycle, just be patient. Larger caps will be lucky to 2x but you can easily 200x with the right microcap. I personally like 0xMR and ALCX.
1565  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Short term solid projects? on: February 21, 2021, 02:27:16 PM
Hey, what would you recommend to buy and keep for 6 months? I have BTC, ETH, Dash, Monero, Litecoin, Tezos.

Which altcoins do you recommend for few months?

If you're buying cryptos now you want to buy microcaps that haven't mooned yet, not large caps. I'm buying 0xMR and EC.

I sold my Monero for 0xMonero. People will eventually realize that Monero is broken and do the same.
1567  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If you were me , Do you buy this coin ?? on: February 21, 2021, 02:21:19 PM

Hi , As my hobby im searching on new projects , So this time i found a Low risk project among 15 new projects . They have a Ann thread on bitcointalk --> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5286191.msg55504061#msg55504061

Im telling as "Low Risk"  because they have provides every thing clearly with the videos  , And they have NO ICO . What do you think ? shall we comment on that thread if you have any doubt on this project , then it will be helpful for others as well.
I also like RVN and 0xMR because they had no ICO and are fairly mineable. 0xMR just listed on a casino and partnered with a gaming website and hasn't pumped yet. Raven recently pumped over 250%.
1568  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We should not buy outdated and overvalued coins on: February 21, 2021, 02:12:53 PM
Doing Altcoins research is very important because right now, so many Altcoins are in circulation. A very important rule so far is:

Don't buy outdated and overvalued coins!

A coin needs to be innovative to be a successful coin. So far, projects are unfolding in several phases:

- Vision Project develops a vision / whitepaper
- Trial Project tries to deliever a solution based on "vision" / product development starts
- Result Project is presenting evidence (after development) if it's working or not

Most projects fail in phase "Trial" because it didn't work and team can't deliever. After no innovative result was presented, some projects start to get lower expectations and switch assumptions. Development takes ages and a good product is always only "promised" but will never come.
Now, marketing will take over a large part instead of real progress. Marketing is done to hide failures and present very litte progress as a huge success.

And finally, it will result in an outdated and overvalued coin. It's often very similar! And we need to know to stop buying such coins because price will go down later.


Outdated and not innovative coins so far:

- Bitcoin Cash
- Bitcoin SV
- Cardano
- EOS
- Tron
- NEM
...


We should instead decide for new, innovative coins:

- Ethereum 2.0
- Avalanche
- Cosmos
- ChainLink
...


Having a look at development history is a very important part of doing our own research!


You are dead on. That's a really good point. A lot of projects have already mooned, look for cryptos that haven't increased in value yet. I like UTNP and 0xMR right now.
1569  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which Altcoin would you Buy now and Why? on: February 21, 2021, 02:11:01 PM
My UNCX, 0xMR, UTNP, FARM picks have done well
1570  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you get mad when the price of your cryptos go higher after you have sold on: February 19, 2021, 05:47:10 AM
I have been investing in cryptos for some years now and i always have to fight a battle with myself whenever i sell some of my cryptos or close my positions in a trade and the price continues to go higher.

Sometimes i regret selling, while sometimes i just try not to look at the particular crypto anymore to avoid having regrets. 

Do you also encounter this? And how do you deal with it?
You can never time the market perfectly. The fact that you sold and could have sold for more money is psychological. You could make the argument that you are taking out your initial capital and only trading profits, which would be a very smart thing to do. I would never take out more than 10% of my crypto investments though, blockchain is the next internet.
1571  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: COINS THAT REACHED ATH TODAY on: February 19, 2021, 05:45:20 AM
According to Crypto Differ tweet we arrange all the popular coin list in a place that reached all time high price. Though according to market situation we predict that some coin broke its ATH. But its not possible to a person to find from all coin & token. Thanks to crypto differ that he shares this list with us.



Your opinion about this record. Plus if you didn't see another coin or token which has crossed ATH you can comment here.
UNCX is still highly underrated. They allow any project to enter DeFi, nobody else is doing that.
1572  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Suggestion: good altcoin to buy on: February 19, 2021, 05:44:17 AM
Hi everyone,
I have a couple hundred dollars to invest...already have my little bags of the most popular coins probably, accumulated over the years.
I was looking for an undervalued coin to try that could rise if the bull market continues.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.

The market is changing quickly. A few days ago I would have advised you to buy 80% large caps and 10-20% microcaps. Now that Bitcoin and Ethereum have increased in value so much, I would only invest in microcaps like 0xMR and EC that haven't mooned yet. DeFi projects with a high amount of TVL like FARM and UNCX are also a good option.
1573  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crpto investment in 2021 on: February 19, 2021, 05:29:09 AM
Anyone have the idea for the best Crypto to invest in early 2021 for gaining high profit value 

I am investing in cryptos that haven't mooned yet like UTNP and 0xMR. Once they pump put that money into other microcaps that haven't mooned. Keep repeating and after about 4 times you will be a millionaire.
1574  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Ethereum going to Die? on: February 19, 2021, 05:28:17 AM
I am a long term supporter  of Ethereum and  know that it is the most trusted network to create smart contracts but the kind of Huge fees for withdrawal and swapping of tokens, we have to nowadays due to slow network or congestion , is going to make it unpopular coin in coming months and other networks like, Binance, EOS, Polka Dot may take its place . The issue with Ethereum is that its developers are trying to scale running Blockchain which is like repairing a car while driving.

ETH 2.0 is on the horizon but in the near term, EIP 1559 is suggested and will standardize gas fees by burning gas and setting a low gas fee. That would take a few months to implement if agreed upon. L2 optimism is coming to Uniswap very soon, this could theoretically half the amount of transactions on Ethereum, thereby reducing gas fees at a similar ratio.

You can trade Ethereum and Ethereum tokens like 0xMR and LINK on xDAI chain now with near 0 gas fees. Other L2 and sidechains exists, you just have to look into how to use them and onboard.

I'm only investing in POW projects like RVN and 0xMR where the dev team does not control the supply. This way the team can't dump on you, exit scam, or rugpull. It's the safest way to invest.
1576  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KYC is dangerous and useless.. but Monero partially solves that. on: February 14, 2021, 09:59:18 AM
Know-Your-Customer is now known by many of us as one very dangerous process we have to go through in order to be granted rights on a not-insignificant amount of cryptocurrency-related platforms. Although it has been proven over and over that its initial intention to fight illicit financial activity has smoothly turned for the most part into a much more malicious intent, a large part of cryptocurrency users seem to either ignore this fact or simply not care that, by completing KYC forms, their identity is now situated under a continuous threat of theft, black market sales and database hacks.

The internet does not forgive, nor does it forget. And if this does not sound scary enough, Bitcoin and about any other cryptocurrency with an immutable ledger that is historically preserved as long as the coin exists is more unforgivable and unforgettable than anything else we ever had since technology.

However, people still tend to use centralized platforms that require KYC completion due to a variety of reasons. Fees and rates are better on centralized exchanges than ATMs provide. The purchasing process is way simpler and more user friendly. The feeling of safety since for any click going wrong there is a Customer Service to call. Today we are going to analyze how Monero's private blockchain partially eliminates the dangers and risks posed by the Know-Your-Customer process.



BTC's privacy-enhancing tools are prone to user mistakes and, if ever broken/exploited, every single previous user will be affected. If there is a particular reason I am afraid to spend part of my money on services such as mixers and CoinJoins, it's the fact that I can either commit a mistake that eliminates the actual effect of those kind of services or, someday in the future, authorities or someone with enough IQ or luck could find a way to link CoinJoin inputs to outputs or mixed coins to your identity.

Even with CoinJoin's existence, very sophisticated algorithms could still analyze coins and make links a strong human brain can not. Once you mix or join coins, you will have to take care not to use non-privacy-enhanced coins together with privacy-enhanced ones. One very simple but costly mistake you can make is creating this link using change. Coin Control could solve that. But how many people know how to properly use Coin Control?

If Bitcoin still has some ways to enhance your privacy, all other coins pretty much don't. While you can mix your Bitcoins, you cannot mix your Ethereum, DOGE or Litecoin. Bitcoin is situated in between what pretty much any other coin and Monero offers from a privacy point of view.

With that being said, some Bitcoin services or software do still offer a potentially exploitable privacy alternative while the rest of cryptocurrencies are  prone to heuristical analysis that link coins to identities. Meanwhile, Monero comes with privacy as a default and main focus.

By using Monero, platforms you have verified your account on will now not know anything about your financial past besides how much you have deposited and how much you have withdrawn. This is something that has particularly frightened me before: through heuristical analysis, blockchain-analyzing tools could find out where your money came from and where it's going without even asking for your permission or statement. Since most cryptocurrencies are fully public and pseudonymous, it's almost like your banknotes leave a glittery trail behind whenever you go to a store, bank or anywhere else.

Banks know how much you deposit and withdraw. However, if you withdraw cash to your physical wallet, the chain of surveillance breaks down and whatever you do with your banknotes is none of their business anymore. Since Monero's ledger is private, it solves this issue by becoming the digital version of withdrawing cash: withdraw XMR to your private wallet and nobody knows what happens to it anymore.

Surveillance States are here - and Monero can fight that. In the past few years, cryptocurrency regulations brought upon a numerous amount of maliciously-intended laws. From Know-Your-Customer 'till this day, how did things change?

If anything, authorities are still supposedly strongly fighting an invisible, overly-exaggerated enemy: illicit financial activity. Under these three words, a large number of laws have been passed through which privacy becomes less and less meaningful. If before we had them regulate exchanges, today they are trying to regulate decentralization. By trying to limit unhosted wallets, FINCEN has proven my previous thoughts right: according to their mindset, privacy should be a crime.

However, Monero comes as a solution to this as well. Its wallet cannot truly be regulated since there is no public evidence for authorities to verify whether your declared addresses and values fit what the public ledger has stored or not.



Therefore, with Monero, KYC and other similar (and even worse) laws now pose a much smaller threat than they pose with public ledgers. Having said that, as time goes on and our governments plan how to better turn our countries into Surveillance States while still camouflaging it better than ever before in an only apparent freedom and democracy, we can fight this all and try gathering our privacy back.

Disclaimer: this is not supposed to be an argument against @1miau's thread but rather a solution to some of the risks and long-term effects of KYC and similar laws.


This look like you copied it from a website somewhere. Monero can be tracked and Ciphertrace has a contract with DHS and two patents to do so. The majority of nodes are currently malicious. If you read the 0xMonero whitepaper it explains all of the problems with Monero and why you should upgrade to 0xMonero. Frankly, the issue with all UTXO based cryptos is that every single coin mined carries a history of where it has been forever. Even if the blockchain is claimed to be private now, when that privacy is broken, all transactions will be seen due to the nature of UTXO. Account based cryptos like 0xMR don't have that problem, plus they cannot be blacklisted.
1577  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does any project use the power of all the unused smartphones worldwide? on: February 14, 2021, 09:55:00 AM
Hey guys, I am no techie but had the idea that it would be very smart to use/share all the unused power of smartphones (f.e. during night at sleep) for cpu works (like rendering, filecoding etc) and use its free space (even hundrets of MB shall work instead of 200 GB as filecoin needs at least).

It is so obvious to try to use those billions (!) Smartphone potential out there but I dont know any project which do so.

There are so many possibilities therefore. Right now I had the idea of creating a decentralised internet (or messenger at least) based on Bluetooth (or wifi) p2p Network, so it still works after the regular internet may break down.
Pi and electroneum were not real mining. Several projects exist now, and several apps, that allow you to mine on an android phone but unless your cpu is watercooled, you end up only being able to mine 24/7 with one core out of 8. The amount you earn mining will likely never cover transaction fees.
1578  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Finally, privacy coins are moving on: February 14, 2021, 09:52:53 AM
With the news from regulators, privacy coins were not pumping at all for a long time. XMR was stable around $140 for a long time, so does DASH and other privacy coins too but today it is totally the privacy coins time. Dash was pumped more than 80%, XMR 30% and ZEC close to that.
Is there any good news for privacy coin? Why suddenly it’s getting increased?
DASH only pumped because Bitboy was likely paid to do a promotional video. It's a fact that Monero is a fork of Bytecoin and there is little technical reason why it should be valued any higher than Bytecoin @ 0.00068746 usd. I sold all of my Monero a long time ago. The majority of people talking about Monero online now are shills paid by whales to help pump their bags by getting naïve retail investors to buy the "best privacy token" (Cyphertrace has a contract with the DHS and two patents with which to track Monero).
1579  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Question about new projects on: February 14, 2021, 09:48:25 AM
Why do almost 90% of the platforms introduced through this forum have to create their own coins and tokens immediately?
What I've learned about the founders of giant platforms like Paypal, Alibaba, Google, Twitter, Facebook, etc. is that they don't. They just make a platform that really hopes it will be used by people around the world without creating tokens to attract investors early in the journey (maybe they did but it was privately so that in the end we only heard the story). So that when their platform becomes a well-known brand, the money comes naturally through big investors, sponsors, and partners from other well-known figures/brands.

In addition (funnier), platforms with social and community bases that have no purpose or solution to the financial case must force themselves to stay in the mainstream by tokenizing their services which in the end the token creation itself becomes useless.

Why don't the current projects almost all follow in the footsteps of existing famous brands?
We are moving into the 4th industrial revolution. Some of the platforms you mentioned could have made money from user's information/advertising. Now platforms can earn money by issuing tokens or placing a platform transaction tax on tokens in it's ecosystem.

I've been looking to invest in some rising altcoins for quite a while now. Any suggestions for temporary investment? Smiley
After all of the exit scams, fake ICOs, Uniswap rug-pulls I've suffered through, I decided to only invest in fairly mineable projects like 0xMonero and Raven.
