1581  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC 2 become hard currency, surge $300Kish. Gov Sieze Debase all other assets. on: March 27, 2020, 08:05:56 PM
So it looks like Govs are going to use thus covid-19 to be the pretext for seizure and redistribution of whatever it takes, cash shares gold, your hoard of stuff.

If they will be seizureing anything, they will seizure our privacy and liberty. After the pandemic, and Economic crisis we will have social and political crisis. World will not be same as was a year ago. Lots of Liberty will get lost similar to what happened after September 11 attacks. Those born in 90ties or latter dont even know what world was before.
1582  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Margin trading Zcash. What to expect, where to trade? on: March 27, 2020, 05:46:52 PM
Share your experience! I’ve been doing Zcash spot trading for a while, and now would like to move to margin trading. I think I read a ton of materials regarding margin trading in general. Would love to hear you experience with specifically Zcash margin trading. Also recommend come good exchanges to go with.

You should not margin trade any cryptocurrenciy. Cryptocurrencies trading is highly manipulated by whale holders. ZCash founding company Electric Coin Company owns 20% of all coins that was mined so far. They can dump a lot in a second.  Just buy coins that you believe will have use case 10 years from now and hold them. Buy as much as you can afford to lose. Buy every month to mitigate price volatility.

Will bitcoin last forever?
We see that's some of the cryptocurrencies ranking level are decreased such as dogecoin before it was ranked #4 but currently I think it doesn't listed even in top #10 ranking... So can bitcoin also decrease its rank in the future or it will remain #1 rank forever?.

Nothing last forever. You are focusing on the cryptocurencies, but you can look further. Nothing stays rank.1 forever. If you look last 5000 years timeline China was strongest country for most of the rime. And where was China last 500 years? Spain, Netherlands, UK and USA were Nr.1.

Btw If COVID-19 cannot be completely resolved, especially in every country affected by the corona virus outbreak?

Vaccine will be found. Big question is if it will maybe be found before this Winter. If not we will for sure have another covid wave 10 months from now. I dont believe we will not have a vaccine before Winter 2021.
1585  Economy / Economics / Re: CoronaVirus USA - Open by easter? on: March 27, 2020, 02:12:48 PM
I don't know--where I live, there are a lot of businesses that are still remaining open, including restaurants, gas stations, and even tobacco shops.  There's definitely a sense that things are a lot different out there, including store shelves which are almost empty, but so far it isn't too bad.  But again, that's where I live.  Other areas, other countries have been hit a lot harder.

As far as major improvement by Easter....that's optimistic.  I'd like to see it happen, but I'm not confident it will.  I can't stand Trump, but I'm not going to criticize him for his optimism.

In general USA had not yet been hit most. Europe is a tiny bit a head and slowly number of infected will start declining, but number of hospitalised will keep increasing fro a week or two.   I believe some USA states will only now realise how serious it is and will close all not 100% needed services and force people stay at home.  
1586  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XMR 2.0 with high security and decentralization as Bitcoin on: March 26, 2020, 06:28:03 PM
It reminds me of MoneroEOS https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5125831.0   That scam was very well planed and someone put a lot of effort in it, but am not sure they were managed to steal and Monero and EOS with it.

Everyone should be very where and who they put they private keys. I dont want to FUD, just urge to people to be extra careful.

Which currency will popular in next bullrun?
I think should be eth, ada or eos will be the good one project in next Bull run what is your opinion guys?

10 years from now only those cryptocurreencies that will be used will be worth anything.  If you believe coins you mention have legit use case, and people need them and will use them, then you should be fine.
1588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NEO holders "News Flash" prepare for huge bomb incoming! on: March 26, 2020, 04:51:32 PM
Ive just read this Neo Developers Unlock 2.3% of its supply and its quite alarming why devs suddenly unlock 1.6million token worth $11million USD. Fortunately its not yet been move, wondering also what is their motive since there is no announcement made.

That is how it is with coins and tokens that are not secured with PoW or PoW coins with a premine or an instamine. You never know when such bombs will drop.  If this would be only bomb NEO will ever face is no huge deal. But There are huge storage of such bombs stored fro NEO holders.
1589  Economy / Economics / Re: CoronaVirus USA - Open by easter? on: March 26, 2020, 04:21:53 PM
Despite what you believe politically, President Trump made a statement "showing hope" to have the USA "open by easter".

https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/24/politics/trump-easter-economy-coronavirus/index.html

Do you think this is possible? What do you think the impact of this will be if this is forced ahead (companies allowed to re-open up, etc). Do you think it'll make the health and/or economic problem better or worse?


LOL on Easter hospitalised covid-19 patients in USA will peak. Number of infected will start dropping, but what matters most are the ones in hospitals. And special the ones that will die. At Easter time will be many many deaths.
1590  Economy / Speculation / Re: Halving, who's closest with actual Nrs TAKE A CHANCE on the LIST !!! on: March 26, 2020, 03:45:17 PM
This is most crazy quarter price guessing championship so far and might be most crazy ever.  In January it looked like my $9500 will be way way to low. Bitcoin price almost got there and the end of quarter was still two long  months closer to the halving. Mid February half way there price peaked and slowly started declining. All looked well then. First week of March we were still in the $9000 range. Then a sharp decline started and ended at sub $5000. Things was way out of the plan then. All hope was lost. Then next two weeks price started grow again. Hope started shining again. Now less then a week to go we are very far from $9500, but on the other hand it can still happen. It would be in the line of this crazy Bitcoin quarter.
1591  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Top 10 alts under $0.10 that can go 100x on: March 25, 2020, 10:14:13 AM
Top 10 alts under $0.10 that can go 100x

Any coin can go x100. Id don need to be worth less then 10 cents. Usually coins that are cheap have big issuance. they are usual in billions. It is totally normal when there are so many that value of each is very low.   Coins will go x100 when people will start using them. So that should be focus of your research. Not the price of each coin.

COVID-19 Increased Bitcoin Adoption
Recent crises are testing the abilities of Bitcoin. The adoption of Bitcoin is increased as people are stuck at home they are looking for better solutions to transfer remittance and for purchasing.
Many countries are using blockchain technology to fight against the pandemic. 

I dont see any increased number of Bitcoin transaction. There is actually a decline compared to last month. And there is a 15% decline from a year ago. Yes there might be more Lightning network transactions, but transactions on the main layer are declining.
1593  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 24, 2020, 11:30:04 PM
Bitcoin price looking good, halving getting near. Money printing off the scale, we’re definitely going to see a new ATH by the end of the year.

I’m out of jail, theymos let me out Wink

I decided to end these 7-day bans early. Altcoin giveaways involving incentivized posting are not allowed anywhere on the forum, but certain incentivized-posting games (not altcoin giveaways) are allowed in Games & Rounds. The topic was incorrectly posted in Games & Rounds, possibly causing some understandable confusion among participants.

Happy to be back boys!



LOL so you had 3 days like in Monopoly?
1594  Economy / Economics / Re: India - Complete Country Lockdown - Is it on the Verge of Economic Crisis ? on: March 24, 2020, 06:32:04 PM
It is very big decision by PM of India and this shut down is not for one day, one week BUT its for whole 21 Days!!

LOL man, it is happening all over world. It is not as big as it was 2 months ago in China. Now lock downs are an usual thing. It can even happen that regions in India with most infected gets under the quarantine.
1595  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: March 24, 2020, 05:37:35 PM
For the first time I see people being nervous. People that never wanted to talk about Bitcoin and Monero are now asking about it.  Even as one of those that is highly invested in crypto I lost way more then anyone else in last 2 months, I am totally calm. After medical and economic crisis we will get social and political crisis. It is very hard to expect that state and money would ever part without the revolution. and it seems that moment is coming fast.

Monero always had low volume on exchanges compared to most other coins. Now that will have big role at it, when even less people will sell. Yesterday I checked few gold merchants and they offers ( what they have on sale) are few times smaller as usual and even bars have huge premium. They simply dont want to sell since they know price will go up in the near future. Same is with Monero.
1596  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Steem fork project (HIVE) a success on: March 23, 2020, 08:08:56 PM
Never expected this move, I should have followed it up. I expect a smart rivalry from the original steem led by SUN. The fact that bittrex listed the, shows they are very serious and some other exchanges may list it for free. Another possible good opportunity to make good money.


Of course they are serious they build Steem. They will just continue to build it. Sun will copy paste it same as he cpoy pasted TRON white paper.
1597  Economy / Economics / Re: Sans monetary stimulus and injections, how do you respond to an economic crisis? on: March 23, 2020, 07:35:01 PM
Who else thinks that this is a very well thought out Chinese move to finally shift the center of global power decisively in its favor. Post the industrial revolution, every geo-straegic shake up has been the result of a global war. War by their very nature do not need such measures because ultimately they are a boon to the economy. More production, a highly committed workforce, easy market (Ammunition, fuel, clothes, rations, weapons, transport).

They are not called Peoples republic of China to kill Chinese. Over 4000 Chinese will die out of Corona virus. It is out of question they would ever put economy before their citizens. They are not Corporations Republic of China.

Estimating death rate... I think South Korea's numbers are most reliable, since they don't have authoritarian censorship culture, but they DO have LOTS of test kits available.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-southkorea-toll/south-korea-reports-fewest-new-coronavirus-cases-since-february-29-peak-idUSKBN21A043

Quote
The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC) said there were 64 new cases on Monday, taking the national tally to 8,961. The death toll rose by one to 110.

110 out of 8,961 is about 1.23%.
Wrong formula. It's death/(death+cured). Which still doesn't look bad, in their case.

Would you just stop it with your home made non sense bullshit formula already.
Ball is in your court. Suggest a better method.

 We're all doing it wrong.
 Population of Italy  ~ 60,480,000
 Deaths attributed to Covid-19  ~ 6,078
 Mortality rate ~ 1.12 per 100,000

 Perhaps we could use a narrower geographic definition by drawing a circle of a certain diameter around with epicenter and estimating the population of that area but I don't have those stats but I'm sure the respective governments do.

Cause-specific mortality rate
The cause-specific mortality rate is the mortality rate from a specified cause for a population. The numerator is the number of deaths attributed to a specific cause. The denominator remains the size of the population at the midpoint of the time period. The fraction is usually expressed per 100,000 population. In the United States in 2003, a total of 108,256 deaths were attributed to accidents (unintentional injuries), yielding a cause-specific mortality rate of 37.2 per 100,000 population.
About 1% of the country is infected. They are all going to get infected. Mortality rate 112%!

No dude. We look at the infected population. It's over 40% by official numbers.

We know the official numbers are underestimating the actual number of infected. But then, they are probably underestimating the number of dead too. Gotta work with what we got.

 We will never know the value of "the infected people" because they aren't testing the entire population.  How can we use this variable so loosely?  It doesn't reflect the reality of the situation and makes it seem more grave than it is.
Which incidentally is exactly what we want. This needs to be taken seriously. And in any case, "people who are sick enough to notice" may be a better metric than merely "infected".

Best metric and pretty much most important is hospitalised. Italy right now have 23896 in hospitals right now. Number of infected is around 10 times more then that.
