It's pretty much almost like Facebook's "like" or Reddit's "upvote" feature. If you post enough good content or probably give out advice to people that are in need of help/answers, then other users are more likely to give you merits.

I already don't like the way clicking on +merit takes you away from the thread. Can you please have it open in a new window?
Agree 100% with this. A new window, or maybe just code in a little box next to the post where you can type the Merit you want to give and then hit Give or something. Instead of posting you 100% agree, you should have given me 100 merit. Press your middle mouse button when trying to open a link to open it in a new window. Problem solved. Now you should have given me 200 merit.
Watching. This can be a hassle for people using mobile. Making the merit link open to a new tab is fairly easy so I don't see any reason why they shouldn't implement this. on the anchor tag should do the trick.

Does one have to send a designated amount to binance first?
Yes. Your bitcoin is on your ledger's bitcoin wallet, which is pretty much inaccessible to binance as your binance account has a separate bitcoin wallet. So yes, send over your preferred amount of BTC from your ledger to binance. EDIT: Do you really meant MyEtherWallet? I thought you used a hardware wallet and just accessed your ETH via MyEtherWallet. My bad. Read what piloder said. It doesn't matter what you're using (hardware wallet, Myetherwallet or anything else). If the funds are not stored in the exchange, you must first send them there to be able to trade.
This is true, unless you're using a decentralized exchange like EtherDelta.

"In five years, if you try to use fiat currency, they will laugh at you." I personally think this is a very optimistic opinion(or maybe even TOO optimistic), as I personally really don't see fiat to be dead in a very short timespan such as 5 years. Bitcoin's rise to global adoption won't definitely be a smooth one. There's going to have many bumps/hiccups as remember that we're dealing with a currency here; there's definitely going to be interference from banks and governments.

You start learning about cryptocurrencies in general by studying/reading A LOT. If you're going straight to trading without any knowledge, then you're pretty much bound to fail. It's like saying that in minimum, you don't even have a doctorate/medical degree and you immediately want to be a surgeon. Get my point? Some sources:

It's a new feature. You get merit points when someone sends you some for one of your posts. Additionally, when someone sends you merit points, half of those points can be sent by you to other people.
Certain users are designated as "merit sources". They can create new merit out of nothing, up to a limited number per month (which differs per source). I will not be posting a definitive list of merit sources (so that people don't bug them too much), though you'll soon figure out who they are if you pay attention.
There is currently no such thing as a "demerit". I'm hoping that the positive merits alone will be fine. I could add demerits pretty easily later on if necessary, though. Read: Topic: Merit & new rank requirements

Thanks for replying. I have set up an Gemini account now but it will take a few weeks for them to verify my identity I have also set up an blockchain.info account which started working immediately. Do you guys have any experience of blockchain.info? Is it any good? I am afraid that the bitcoin price will go back up if I wait on Gemini to verify me. Do you think I should wait for it or go for blockchain.info? Also how much is the fee on moving your coins from Gemini and blockchain to an offline wallet? I have read so many sad stories about peoples coins on exchange sites getting stolen Blockchain.info sure provides a lot of data and information to bitcoin holders and also has a wallet feature, but Blockchain.info doesn't have an exchange unfortunately.

Due to all the negative feedback I've been reading about Coinbase lately, looks like Gemini should be your best bet. If you'd like to trade with physical cash though, try out Localbitcoins. Just make sure to take extra safety precautions when transacting in person. About wallets: If you're planning on investing a significant amount, your best bet would be to purchase a hardware wallet like the Ledger Nano S[2] and Trezor[3]. Consult youtube and decide for yourself which of the two you life better. More info on wallets: Topic: [General] Bitcoin Wallets - Which, what, why?

First of all, i don't want to be rude, but if you have to ask this question, creating an altcoin is not for you...
Same exact thought I had before I replied. I'd figure that wsxdrfv probably might just want to try to create coins for learning purposes so I pointed him/her to some sources. Hopefully that's his/her intentions are; and not make another new shitcoin as we already have too much of those.

I own a few Porsches, I think in 5 years a whole Bitcoin won't buy 1 gallon of Petro for my Porsche.
Got in BTC at $5 got out near $20k
This crap is $5k soon
It's worthless in future.

It depends on what you're intentions are with your coin. And no, I think coins these days don't fork from bitcoin anymore. Like I said, it depends on what you're intentions are. You could pretty much fork any coin. Or you could use the Waves platform[1], or create an Ethereum ERC20 token[2].

Less than 100 wallets hold over 98% of all bitcoins.
Those 100 wallets controlled by around 10 smart dudes.
Source? Proof? You're all in one big worthless manipulated Ponzi scam.
If you're calling bitcoin a Ponzi scam/scheme, then you obviously don't even know what a ponzi scheme is. A bit of profanity below..Let me school you a bit, as you obviously don't know what you're talking about: A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investing scam promising high rates of return with little risk to investors - source. Since when did bitcoin actually promise profits? You dumb fuck. God I'm triggered. I got in the great con at $5 and got out around $20k
Yeah sure, you got in at one of the best times and got out at the best time as well. I 100% believe you. /s

I'm pretty sure it's impossible to know the exact or atleast an accurate percentage of people invested in cryptocurrency due to most if not all cryptocurrencies being anonymous and pseudo anonymous, hence there's really no way to have accurate data. We can probably collect data from crypto exchange registrations, but that wouldn't be accurate enough in my opinion.

Usually they would just quote your response on the same exact thread and say that you're accepted or not. I'm pretty sure campaign managers accepts applicants in batches, so probably just keep on refreshing the page like every few hours to see if your accepted or not.

I don't think so. Multiple accounts per IP is allowed here. Just make sure you don't do something stupid probably like spamming referral links or spamming unnecessary stuff; as you can probably both get banned by doing so, as both of your accounts are registered and being logged in on one single IP address.

Are you even serious? or are you just trolling? Tether(USDT) is tethered to 1 USD hence tether only hovering $1 or a few cents more or less. You're pretty much investing on something that's supposedly not going to move in value. Though it's debatable whether or not it's safe to store your funds on tether. Also, make sure to do research before investing, as it looks like you definitely didn't do any research with your tether "investment". Read: https://tether.to/If what I read is right. Your investment will not grow even if you will hold if for a long period of time, is that right? So what is the sense of investing to it? LOL That's pretty much the point of it. It's just acts as 1 USD. Might as well just hold paper dollars.
