Here's the kicker for me: How many devices will your app allow me to sync across?

I currently use Delta, but without paying a ridiculous ~$90 a year (more than I pay for my VPN), I can only sync across 2 devices. If you let me sync across 4 or more for free, I'll give your app a try.

Oh by the way, 50% of the DNA in that child is daddy's.  And 50% of daddy's is grampa's, and so on--same math for the female side, which I'm sure most people here are aware of, but I don't assume everyone knows basic biology.  Genetics is the craziest natural bitcoin-type mixer in existence.

I'm going to have to be a pedantic asshole here and point out since the human Y chromosome is significantly smaller than the human X, males receive slighty more than 50% of their nuclear DNA from their mothers.


It is said in a lot of countries that the limit is 24 weeks because the foetus cannot survive until that point on it's own.

However, a baby was born fairly recently before that 24 weeks which means that it could technically survive on its own normally at that point in some extreme cases. ref. This is actually quite a surprising read as he was 23 weeks and 6 days old when he was born (yes it's a bit pedantic one day before but still it means they could potentially have survived before then).

This is known as the limit of viability. Although most developed countries still use a cut off of (around) 24 weeks to initiate neonatal resuscitation, there are frequent cases of more premature survivors. I've personally been involved with a 23+1 who survived, and here is a case report of a 21+4 who is apparently developing normally: http://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/early/2017/10/31/peds.2017-0103.

As with most things, the truth lies somewhere between the two extremes. Yes, most altcoins and ICOs are scams, but there are some that are achieving things that Bitcoin can't and will continue in to the future alongside Bitcoin.
15884  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Fake binance pump? on: July 05, 2018, 07:57:15 AM
By the time you see a coin pumping, it is already too late to buy. You won't have time to sell before it dumps and you are left bag holding.

The only people who benefit from a pump and dump are the one or two top scammers.
15885  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to fight so many scams among Altcoins? on: July 05, 2018, 07:42:32 AM
Stop throwing your money at shit projects. Almost all ICOs and altcoins are scams. They keep popping up because there is an apparently endless stream of morons willing to give them their money.

15887  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: $300 million transferred for 4 cents in fees! on: July 04, 2018, 11:52:51 AM
And that's why I argue it didn't even happen. It's more like Scrooge McDuck moving a pile of cash from one corner of his safe to another corner. That doesn't give any delays, fees or people to negotiate with.
True, but this transaction proves it's possible to send that much money essentially for free, even if it didn't actually happen.


On the other hand, if you do really make a transaction for $300 million, whether it's Bitcoin or fiat, it's very likely the deal needs to be negotiated anyway, which takes much more time than transfering the fiat. On a global scale, I don't think $300 million is an rare thing in fiat transactions anyway.
I would agree, but the point about fees still stands. I very much doubt there is a traditional financial institution anywhere in the world that would let you transfer $300 million for what is 0.00000001% in fees.
15888  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: $300 million transferred for 4 cents in fees! on: July 04, 2018, 09:49:30 AM
The rest of the transacion (45,500BTC)/$300 million) is just the change that stays in his own wallet.

That's certainly a possibility, but we don't know for sure. However, I don't think it matters. Now, please correct me if I'm wrong here, as I'm a relative newcomer and you are one of the senior members whose opinion I have come to value/trust, but my understanding is as follows:

It doesn't matter if the 48,500 moved to an address in the same wallet or a different wallet, or to an address owned by the same person or someone on the other side of the world. All that matters as far as the blockchain is concerned is that it moved to a new address - the owner of that address is irrelevant.
15889  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: CAN BINANCE REALLY BE HACKED? THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE. on: July 04, 2018, 09:03:04 AM
It wasn't hacked. Some users had their API keys phished, which is entirely their fault and nothing to do with Binance. As usual, Binance's response was swift and professional, and your funds are not at risk.
15890  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Mediex.co on: July 04, 2018, 08:59:51 AM
All five of your points already take place on a massive, very efficient, global scale without blockchain technology. Why exactly do you need blockchain technology or an ICO?

Just yet another example of a coin looking for a problem that doesn't exist to make some quick cash from an ICO.
15891  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Ledger nano - new btc addresses ? on: July 04, 2018, 08:36:22 AM
-snip-

Yes to all your questions.

Ledger will provide you with a new address each time for privacy reasons, but old addresses are forever reusable at the expense of less privacy.

Yes, and it is generally advisable to combine all your fractions in to one when fees are low to save yourself on higher fees in the future. Have a read of this post for some more info.
15892  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WHAT Does everyone think about HOLDING BNB??? on: July 04, 2018, 08:25:25 AM
binnance is currently down  and probably got hacked

bnb holders could see some losses soon

A number of API keys were phished from their owners and then used to trade and pump-and-dump some coins. Binance was taken offline as part of a security update due to this. It wasn't hacked and all funds are safe.

I totally agree with FHF here. Additionally, the situation is comparable to what's going on with Bruno right now. We have a previously well trusted account, which has been involved in shady activities and may or may not have been sold. In my opinion, proving who is currently in control of the account changes nothing - I still would not trust it/them.
15894  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: $300 million transferred for 4 cents in fees! on: July 03, 2018, 06:53:54 PM
I actually almost pay 1k-2k satoshies when make transactions. And i see they always have confirmation during 25 minutes. Is it ok?

Although in the past you have had to pay way more than this, with the current state of the mempool you could pay less and still have quick confirmations, although at such low prices it would hardly make a difference to you.

Have a read of my previous post here for links to help you calculate appropriate fees.

Does no one write down backups on pieces of paper anymore? Might be just me, but I'm too paranoid to store 2FA backups on an online service.

You are absolutely right though. Saving a recovery method in your email is one of the least secure things I can imagine - why even have two factor turned on if hacking one of your factors (email) gives access to the second one? This is as silly as well emailing yourself your recovery seed.
15896  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WHAT Does everyone think about HOLDING BNB??? on: July 03, 2018, 04:33:36 PM
Bear in mind that the trading rewards gained from holding BNB will reduce over time, but I fully expect Binance will introduce a new bonus system for holding BNB. It has grown steadily through the bear market for the last 6 months, and will continue to do so as long as Binance continues to grow.
15897  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: There are more withdrawals than deposits at Coinbase! on: July 02, 2018, 08:42:21 PM
Coinbase is also losing out on popularity.

I for one have flat out refused to use Coinbase since their scummy behaviour and insider trading surrounding their support of BCH. I don't even own any BCH since it's a trash coin, but their questionable business practices were enough for me to take my business elsewhere.
15898  Economy / Reputation / Re: aTriz account has most likely changed hands on: July 01, 2018, 07:58:54 PM
Wasn't aTriz also doxxed?

As part of the whole alia debacle, *she revealed his real name but stated that she also knew his address and details about his family. IIRC, none of that was ever revealed before she was banned.

*If the scammer behind that account was actually female as claimed.
15899  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: $300 million transferred for 4 cents in fees! on: July 01, 2018, 07:47:17 PM
Where're the Bch advocates saying btc will die due to fees, seems like the people who complained about fees have suddenly disappeared lol. This is the power of bitcoins and this is what makes it such a popular option for all to invest and trade into it. I'm though surprised 4 cents at least 40 cents would have been nice lol. Looks like btc is back in action lol.

They are probably too busy setting up another scam website or telling newbies that don't know better that Bitcoin Trash is "the real Bitcoin".

Are there honestly people who are still trading Bitcoin Gold? I assumed everyone had just claimed it and sold it ASAP for more Bitcoin. Why do you continue to hold a scam?
