bitassets won't come out until Monday last I heard and NXT is already planning their own equivalent / counter. NXT as far as I care has a more extensive ecosystem and more developers. The difference I think is BitsharesX is extremely popular in China (99% comes from Chinese exchanges and 80% is Yuan-BTSx) while NXT is more international. BTSx almost doesn't register on the internet compare to its' activity in China. I think NXT is more secure and stable than BitsharesX. BitsharesX lives and dies at the hands of the Chinese private funds. Do you really want to invest huge amounts into BitsharesX this very minute if some guy in China can type a few numbers on a keyboard and send the capitalization down to $5 million?  That's like being a Bitcoin bagholder who bought at $1200 - a lot of them were bullish until the dump from China. Heck it would be a disaster if the Chinese Government reacted and bans BitSharesX - *poof* that's 99% of BitsharesX activity gone overnight. i like your thought process. and that could indeed be it. but keep in mind, it's still a buyer's market. you think chinese private funds would settle for a little profit by dumping now? it only has begun. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__VQX2Xn7tI |

Why not just produce your own electricity.
exactly! from the OP: The P2P Energy grid is a concept whereby any home could produce its own energy, using renewable energies like solar energy, and sell its surplus to others who need it.... and it would be awesome to see a bitcoin mining company that is fully self sufficient producing it's own power. and even better.. it sells its surplus power to other miners. |

These ideas are great. They problem is that the technology simply isn't there yet. In my area we are forced to subsidize windmill power. The ugly windmills that ruin the view of the mountain tops around my town run at about 30% capacity over 50% of the time. We actually end up paying more for our power to support these wind mills.
then maybe it's time for the btc millionaires to band together and fund an R&D team for it and start a p2p electricity industry and diversify. |

P2P Energy GridThe P2P Energy grid is a concept whereby any home could produce its own energy, using renewable energies like solar energy, and sell its surplus to others who need it. "Microgrids are “a collection of small generators for a collection of users in close proximity,” explains Dr Markvart, whose research appears in the Royal Academy of Engineering’s Ingenia magazine. Microgrids’ premise is that electricity demand is split up and shared around the network of users, much like BitTorrent file sharing. “This microgrid appears to the larger grid as if it’s any other customer. And it can quickly switch between operating on and off the grid: when the grid offers cheap electricity, the microgrid can purchase it, but if prices rise or there’s a power failure, the microgrid can isolate itself. ” ( http://www.ivanenviroman.com/2007/03/08/microgrids-are-p2p-electricity/) source: http://p2pfoundation.net/P2P_Energy_Grid

what about the coin with the japanese dog logo?
|
|
|
|
|
a crypto 2.0 project just might use dogecoin as its main currency. not entirely sure, just a hunch.
hoping an announcement comes out soon.

I feel sorry for the guy. Without him, there would have been no NEM. If he hadn't made that one silly mistake (forgetting to log off), all of this would never have happened.  wait wait.. what silly mistake? and what happened? |

that's too bad... some people won't be holding nxt when it reaches dollar parity because of this thread.
|
|
|

That's one question I don't understand
I see there are thousands of alternative coins and most of them are forgotten or just not being used anymore.
Any logic reason?
profit. |

doge is a perfect medium to build poker/gambling sites on. people are more willing to part from it due to its inflationary model.
i think doge pker sites should make it possible for people to buy doge from them using credit cards.

It definitely was Amir Taaki as Genjix on poker forums. He used to play. He was telling people to buy bitcoin but unfortunately for him(and lots of others including me somewhat) he sold his coins ultra cheap a very long time ago. Not sure where he stands now, but he was living in an abandoned building not too long ago. Hopefully his situation has improved. yup. this is true. i also heard some of his traveling adventures in asia(?) where he ran out of money and had to borrow from his poker player buddies. his best friend in the poker world is 'stealcity', if stealcity stuck with genjix all these years, getting involved and funding his projects i would think he will become a billionaire too. for a young guy stealcity has a lot of cash as he was a highstakes poker player. |

what bitcoin should be doing is support renewable energy by setting up and funding a R & D team on it.
No. The market should support renewable energy... And who exactly is this bitcoin? yup. this is what i meant. the bitcoin millionaires specifically. |
|
|

i remember a guy with the screen name 'genjix' preached bitcoin to a community of poker players back in 2010, encouraging them to invest. nobody took him seriously, including me. fuck me.
Amir Taaki, libbitcoin author, dark wallet dev etc etc. He also has an active accout here on btctalk with the same handler it could be him. ask him if he used to play online poker and if he used to go to liquidpoker. |
