1561  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: thoughts on ampleforth? on: January 07, 2019, 10:53:30 PM
any stable coin is not interesting to me. does not matter who would support it. stable coins for me are not cryptocurrencies.

technically ampleforth isn't a stablecoin. Read into their model here: https://www.ampleforth.org/

You were wrong mate, technically they are aiming for it. If you read their Benefit section, you will see that they are offering us A unit of Account.
what does that mean? that means, they will try to maintain their price and make it stable.
even though they said they wanted to be another Store of wallet, we can not neglect their first benefit which is A unit of account.
read this:
Quote
By maintaining a price target, Amples unlock many of the use cases that our financial infrastructure relies on today. For example:

An employer could not responsibly offer an employee a salary paying 1 BTC per month, but it could offer 4000 Amples per month.

Similarly, a country could not responsibly borrow 100,000 BTC to be paid over the course of ten years, but it could borrow 400,000,000 Amples to be paid over the course of ten years.

And finally, a merchant could not denominate the price of a widget as 1 BTC, but it could denominate it as 4000 Amples.


Has anyone looked into ampleforth? Considered a "stablecoin" but really called a low volatility cryptocurrency. Backed by Pantera, True Ventures, and FBG Capital. Team is from Google and Uber.

Thoughts on their model?

It is way too complicated, I do not see any reason for me to believe this project at least until now.

I would like to raise a very strong point about tether over here
https://pasteboard.co/HVbcwS2.jpg
the above image displays that it has Total supply of 2,580,062,243 USDT
------------------------------------------------------------------

https://pasteboard.co/HVbcIL5.jpg
the above image displays it has a volume of $3,752,040,845 USD as of 6th january


now how is this even possible the one which is backed with 1:1 to have value over 3.7 Billion for 2.5 billion token
because if you multiple 1.02 X 2,580,062,243 its =  2631663487.86
but over here we have $3,752,040,845 USDT

another point is on 21st december tether had 24 volume of over 6.8 billion
now the token are either disappearing from 6.8 billion tokens if its backed with 1:1 so the total supply remains 2,580,062,243 USDT to this date
How is this possible I feel we need regulation on tether ASAP And investigation what omni perhaps is doing with this.
i feel tether has a wallet and the creator has been manipulating with unlimited tether tokens that's the only reason we cannot see the tether actual usage and volume. This is really serious i feel someone could check tether out.. seems like a group of people perhaps around 20 or 25 dividing and splitting around everywhere to manipulate crypto space with their evil intensions..

That was why many people despised this so-called stablecoin, and yes they can create or mint a new token. Did you remember when they got hacked a couple of months ago?
they were losing a lot of money in the process, and to fix this up they created new tokens/generate new tokens.
that was why you will never see a fixed number of this tokens forever. And, that was one of many reasons why many projects created and claimed to be the next stablecoin lately.

P.S ; I do not think this is a right thread to discuss this problem, you better make a thread outside ETH thread.
1563  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [ETCV] Ethereum Classic Vision | Fork 3:1 of Ethereum on: January 07, 2019, 02:54:26 AM
Hmm, many people said this project scam or bla bla bla. But I don't think so. because the developer didn't ask to us to give our private key or require to send some funds...

If you are too worry to be scammed, maybe you can try to create a new wallet to claim airdrop...


Hmmm... How about this,
Indeed you can create a new wallet to claim the airdrop, but what happens for those who used their own wallet such as MEW wallet? as we can see, the bounty requires you to input your MEW or an address that support ERC token. And when the blockchain starts, how can they use it if it is on separate blockchain?
does not that mean they need to 'input' something to the new blockchain in order to claim their rewards?
mind to tell me, what should they do?  Huh Huh
1564  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Buy now or wait? on: January 07, 2019, 02:50:32 AM
If you wait for the price to drop again it seems difficult, because we don't know when there will be a significant decline again, if I personally follow the current market flow, if I wait and continue to wait for it when we will trade !

Nothing difficult actually, if you have your own target for example;
you are waiting for ETH to get dumped slightly from where it is, as long as the price declined a little bit from where you made that strategy. It can be considered as 'following our strategy'. Unless you are waiting or an unreasonable target, like waiting for ETH at $10 or less than that. There is no way you will get it in near future.
and we can not jump to it randomly, as we can see. We are waiting for momentum, and we are yet to see it right now.
waiting for a couple of days is not a problem, even though we will end up buying higher from before. As long as the trend changes and everything moves exactly same as you predicted, nothing will go wrong.

Ethereum Classic Vision is the upcoming Ethereum hard fork - a new cryptocurrency that proposes bold and efficient answers to the crisis in the blockchain industry, see the future is right in front of us, take your chance to succeed

Before talking, please educate yourself and stop talking bullshit.
ETCV has nothing to do with upcoming ETH hardfork, that is the fact that I got from the team directly and the fact that Constantinople hardfork is an upgrade for ETH's blockchain.
everybody will get 3 ETCV as long as they own 1 ETH in their wallet(it works for them who own their own private key, there is no exchange supporting this airdrop).
and snapshot date is at 11 January.

What is EDL? eLectronic Dollar project aka eDollar?
this project : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2643196.0 (eDollar).

or it is something else?

and what does that mean by Private chain and swap for EDL scam victim? you are doing a swap for those who got scammed by EDL project, and creating their own private chain.
or doing a private swap with those people?
1568  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning on: January 04, 2019, 08:11:41 PM
Binance and other exchanges will support the hardfork in the future, it is necessary because ETH's developer is going to upgrade their system.
do not you think that it makes more sense for them to support this hardfork?
based on the source that I get, we are only seeing an upgrade and there will be no more crap coin created because of this hardfork. how could you say joke when they are fully supporting this upgrade? or something is missing?

I think people are not talking about 'Constantinople' fork but it concerned rather the other two forks. One seems to be (at least) a shitcoin (Classic Vision Fork : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5089443.0) and the other as already been detected as a probable scam (Nowa fork --> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5079183.0).

It is very obvious that he was talking about the exchanges, especially Binance because they are supporting the hardfork.
the other two forks have nothing to do with ETH itself because one of them was labeled as a scam project by the community a week ago and the other one is an airdrop(even though their source code is forked from ETH).
that was why I asked him, why he was angry with those exchanges because of the upgrade.
1569  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning on: January 04, 2019, 06:08:10 PM

when all tokens have been distributed, where the ETCV tokens will be listed. and only this time I saw a Hardfork that has a bounty campaign. actually is this fork official from the Ethereum team?



ETCV can be seen on your wallet, it's not official fork

That was why I said multiple times on your telegram channel that you need to post necessary information about your project. Today, people only understand 'fork' as something like chain split, while some of us know that we can create a project based on fork of some source code.
like PIVX that was created based on DASH fork and many more.

it is not really hard to do this actually, you can add something like this on your thread:
A standalone project forked from ETH source code or something like that.

1571  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [ETCV] Ethereum Classic Vision | Fork 3:1 of Ethereum on: December 30, 2018, 09:44:54 PM
Just joined ETCV telegram group, by why when someone asked whether it is ERC or not. Some people said it is an ERC based token, honestly what is going on with this project?
it is a standalone project or an ERC based token? if it is an ERC based token, that means it can not be considered as a fork because it needs ETH network to do the transaction. and technically speaking it's a token and part of ETH.

it is token or coin? the team needs to educate us and giving us more information about this project.

This is a separate coin.

Yes, I am the one who asked this before on their Telegram channel. The team needs to put more information about your project on the thread and on the website, so people can answer it randomly. Been hearing a lot of people talking about token on your channel but at the same time, they said it is because of fork which is funny for me when I read it before.
also, how many peoples are behind this project? the admin on your Telegram channel is not as active as other used to be.
1572  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning on: December 30, 2018, 09:24:32 PM
Ethereum is in preparation to make huge come back after the upcoming hard fork probably. I wonder how BCH guys promoting tokens creation thing on that chain with other words they are entering in competition with Ethereum. How Vitalik supported these guys for their contagious HF. Anyway there is nothing to worry Ethereum is much more than simply platform of tokes creation and this its competitors need to understand.

I do hope it that way, but for now, it is more like a platform for token creation. We can not deny that, let's be honest here.
there are more than 3 projects out there that can surpass ETH transaction speed and do not forget that they are integrating smart contract too. Which means, they are more than a simple platform of token creation instead of ETH itself, that was why this hardfork means to be.
to increase its capability in handling a thousand transactions per second.

You wrote. "Because we remove intermediaries such as notaries, banks or stock exchanges, we significantly reduce transaction costs. Investors can invest as little and as often as they want." How can you remove noiariusov? Without them, do not pass the transaction. In any case, you can not do power of attorney.

It is very simple, the answer is: they do not know what they were talking about.
Logically speaking, there is no way we can skip those things to buy or trade real estate in our real life. It is totally different if we are making a trade in our dream.
there is something called LAW in every country and until today. Cryptocurrency has not been regulated yet, how could we do something that is not fully regulated to replace them?
this is just another money grabbing project, even they do not have their own Website until now.
1574  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: The Stage is Set-New Year, New non-split Fork, New Price, New value for network on: December 29, 2018, 03:51:20 PM
~snip~

Yes this is very true, but calling it hardfork and upgrade at the same time is not wrong either. Because essentially, hardfork means to be an upgrade. It's just because of those chain split, many people only knew it as something 'bad' instead of a 'good' one.
that is technically, but fundamentally the price might move out of our expectation.
do not forget the fact that they are going to migrating their system from PoW to PoS in the future, and this upgrade means to soften it.
IF the transition is happening in a couple of months later, there will be a huge fud wandering about in our space. Because the majority people until today still mining it, and they will be pissed off because of this transition.
1575  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning on: December 29, 2018, 12:24:49 PM
The day before yesterday I sold Ethereum, and then the coin went sharply to grow, I was pleasantly surprised. Who in the course will the Binance exchange support fork Ethereum?

am buying some more eth at this price just for the fork which is upcoming this January.

I guess that explains the sudden growth of eth even without btc growth as such, its always good to have some free money after all, i will also pick some few up not to miss out, i expect 2019 to be lots better than 2018 interms of price Grin
Yeah that's why Ethereum price going up and i missed the chance to got free BSV, i think i should buy ETH for fork too.
I am agree with you we can expect that 2019 will bring positive news about crypto and market will grow in 2019.  Roll Eyes

This hardfork is totally different compared to the last one, based on the data that I heard. There will be no new coin created based on this fork.
and this fork is specialized for ETH to upgrade their system, technology, and development.
based on that, it is very obvious that most exchange will support it because it will upgrade the system itself instead of chain split. And I do hope, this momentum last for a few months and can trigger our overall market, because it is not the hardfork that we used to be to get a free money.
1576  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Are these airdrops really worth it? on: December 27, 2018, 10:16:06 PM
Obviously, you need to move it to Altcoin Discussion board, here is the link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0

please remember that this forum is specialized for people to talk about Bitcoin, other alternative coins are just entertainment.
and for your question, yes it is worth if you are joining a promising airdrop like Vostok for example.
1577  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning on: December 27, 2018, 08:26:42 PM
Is there any new update regarding the Ethereum hard fork happening in January? If I heard correctly, there will be less reward for miners, is that correct?

Mining is already not really profitable. That means, that miners will be quitting to mine Ethereum and scalabilty will drop. And we all know that Ethereum is not very good at scalability...

Many people quoted your statement but none of them were answering your real question, and the answer is yes. Block rewards will be decreased from 3 ETH to around 2 ETH if nothing changes. It has been discussed by the dev a while ago before the delay.
yes, mining is not profitable any longer for a couple of months, and do not forget that this hardfork will encompass five separate Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) that will help and soften ETH to make its transition in the future.

1578  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: WAVES - Complete Blockchain ecosystem for a token economy on: December 27, 2018, 08:17:55 PM

Here are the details of this event.

"During the second funding round an #airdrop of #Vostok system tokens worth $18 million will be held among the participants of $Waves. $18 mln is almost the exact amount of money #Waves raised years ago. So now it’s time to give ‘em back."
- https://twitter.com/wavesplatform/status/1075682312484999168

"Why do we airdrop 3% of VST tokens to $waves holders? 2.5 years ago we raised ~18 mil at #ICO. Current valuation of #vostok project is 600 mil. 3% is exactly 18 mil. It's time to give back." - https://twitter.com/sasha35625/status/1075416747874889729

Thank you very much, so that is why they are going to run an airdrop for Waves holders. Just can not believe the fact that they could raise that much of money in our current sentiment. Seems like it will become a big shot in the future, just hope it does not make the same mistake as DAO did a while ago.

Waves Ranks fourteenth on China’s Latest CCID Rank, See the list here:

https://medium.com/ontologynetwork/ontology-ranks-fourth-on-chinas-latest-ccid-rank-884c134e4351

~snip~

I don't understand that scoring system, wtf is GXchain? Nuls and Nebulas 6 and 7 ? Nem behind some shitcoin like verge and bytecoin (lol BYTECOIN), Cardano doesn't even have its consensus protocol implemented and it's @17 ? lol

Hahaha, you do not have to understand it at all.
I have been watching this bullshit for a year from different places before, not surprising though seeing this kind of list again with a load of bullshit.
they still list ETC despite the drama that happened with this project.
1579  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: WAVES - Complete Blockchain ecosystem for a token economy on: December 26, 2018, 07:46:06 PM
Waves has really been stable despite the recent market mood swings. This is one of those rare moments where I wished I had stuck to my oars and kept on paddling rather than lost sight and jump ship. These expensive mistakes...

I did not sell my Waves and only in the moments of price reduction I bought more.
So far - no regrets. And even more so with the upcoming airdrop.

I think once the date for the Vostok airdrop is announced, we will see the price of Waves go up a bit until that exact date. Caused by people who want to get free Vostok tokens.

Well seems like I missed something in here, can you give me a link to that Vostok airdrop? I heard a lot of good things about that Vostok, and lately they have successfully secured $120 Million in their private sale. If that is true, this project will become the biggest dark horse in 2019.
and obviously I do not want to miss such an opportunity.

The green market is not the start of the bull run..Market is just making us to be excited and ready for the bull..but i think first quarter 2019 is where the bullish market start.

Since when green market provide us with that treatment? just heard it from you. That is only showing us our current movement and sentiment, it gives you nothing other than an increase in term of price. Well, based on the expert on internet. Before the bull taking its place again, we need to find its bottom first which is very likely to be around $2700~$2800.
right now we are in relief phase, and after this phase there will be another dump that might happen in the future. The market is always moving out of our expectation, so do not be surprised if you are seeing the market to an extreme red in a few days of time.
