Given that this account only has one post, I'm going to assume you are an account farmer and bounty spammer who is now struggling to earn money by spamming the forum with your plethora of alts. To that I say: good.

If you have actual questions about the merit system, then use the search function - they've all been asked 100 times already. If you are (more likely) just another shitposter, good riddance.

Quoted.

When you quote something for reference, it's usually something incriminating that could maybe be used against that person in the future. I fail to understand why you have a quoted a perfectly reasonable statement that essentially says "I stand by my words unless I am presented with new evidence". I suspect it is because even you (along with everyone else) have no idea what you are talking about.

quoting for reference

I didn't think it was possible, but you are making even less sense than digaran. You quoted your own question for reference? I don't even. The question also makes no sense. A thread was started on May 19th drawing attention to Bazinga442's shady practices - actmyname clearly read it and then tagged them. What is not to understand?
16123  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ERC-20 tokens portfolio APP on: May 26, 2018, 09:23:54 PM
Its similar like imToken? And that also avaible for us to trade or send eth with other people? I just download imToken but i'm getting scared being scamed by the app if i input my eth wallet. Because it need our private key for login. I just use myetherwallet website to keep and see my eth for now. And it quite confusable for me to send eth with another. I want app such like Delta you already describe to see our balance and send with another.

No, Delta does not let you send or receive coins, or ask for you private or even public keys. It's simply an app to track your portfolio - you manually enter what coins you hold and what trades you make, and it keeps track of gains and losses.
16124  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ERC-20 tokens portfolio APP on: May 26, 2018, 08:44:53 PM
I use Delta (available on Android, Apple and desktop) - it doesn't list every coin out there, but it certainly pulls prices from IDEX and EtherDelta, along with 100 other exchanges I've never even heard of.

The goal of most investors generally is to buy low and sell high. This can result in two quite different approaches to equity investing.

One approach is described as "trading." Trading involves following the short-term price fluctuations of different stocks closely and then trying to buy low and sell high. Traders usually decide ahead of time the percentage increase they're looking for before you sell (or decrease before they buy).

While trading has tremendous potential...

Now think you have 1 btc and you convert it into BCH. Example for 1 BTC you get 10 BCH. Rate per bch is 0.1 BTC .

After some day if Bitcoin grow up, At the same time BCH also will grow up.
If bch rate grow 1.5 btc then you will have 1.5 BTC.

This is possible, but when BCH dumps to zero because it is a scam perpetrated by fraudsters, you would then have zero BTC, zero BCH and zero USD. What then?
16127  Other / Meta / Re: An alternative project for international newbie post promotion. on: May 26, 2018, 09:49:47 AM
I've been looking at the beginners board, and I think it may not be the best place for the main post showcase. It will require a fair bit of moderation and promotion, and there may be a better solution. I propose that the new member makes his post in the beginners forum in the normal fashion, and the post takes its chance in the general ruckus. I will start a thread in serious discussion or Ivory Tower ( which do you think would be the best ? ), and I will quote the post from the beginners board in full. Any merits to be awarded can go to the original poster on the beginners board. My listing thread will be self moderated, and will only contain the quoted posts, apart from an introductory post by me,

I think this is a cleaner and simpler option, and it still allows a good foreign language poster to make an English language post on the international boards. It also gives the better new members a chance to pick up a few merits as a reward for quality posting.

This is a good solution, and the best of both worlds. It allows the user to post normally, and (potentially) generate an organic discussion from the post, whilst also giving us a way to quickly find (potentially) meritable posts from newbies without having to trawl through the cesspit that is the Beginners' board.

There once was a BitcoinTalk admin [theymos]
Who some say was octospermous
Though the cause was unknown
Others have been told
It was due to him contracting thermus

He had contracted thermus
From a contaminated thermos
But cured himself by eating some Thymus

I remember reading about Revolut a while ago - it seemed very promising in that customers could buy crypto instantly via the app from their bank account or debit card. However, if I remember correctly, you can't actually spend or send the crypto to any other address - they just hold it for you until you sell it back to them. So in reality it's just a crypto tracker and the users don't actually buy or own any crypto.
16131  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Jimmy Song proposes for "Bits" denomination to be adopted on: May 25, 2018, 05:51:29 PM
The thing is, we're not just talking about writing or typing things down here. We're also talking about using it in person; since bitcoin shouldn't be limited to online transactions anyway, what about using BTC on physical stores? Saying "0.000534 Bitcoin" for a $4 Starbucks coffee(as with today's prices) doesn't sound too natural to me. Instead, saying "534 bits" sounds more natural and easier to say personally; like I said on my previous replies here in this topic.

Absolutely this. People just won't say "Zero point zero zero zero zero... bitcoins" every time you are buying or selling small items. "Satoshis" works, but "bits" is better.

I do also like DannyHamilton's system - working in healthcare we often use these abbreviations when talking about millilitres and milligrams/micrograms.

Why not just change it to Thanos and then INFINITY WAR SPOILER ALERT wipe out half of the forum, preferably the shitposters and bounty spammers.
16133  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Jimmy Song proposes for "Bits" denomination to be adopted on: May 25, 2018, 04:13:13 PM
Wait... so 522 bits equates to 0.00363 Bitcoin?!  WTF?  Where does the factor of 6.9540229885057471264367816091954 come from?
 That doesn't clarify things at all.

1 bit equals 1/1,000,000 bitcoin, or 100 Satoshis. It is a much more manageable denomination. The numbers OP gave were just an example. 522 bits is equal to 0.000522 bitcoin.

Given that a common misconception amongst people who are unfamiliar with crypto is that you have to buy a whole bitcoin, changing the way we talk from "$8,000 for a bitcoin" to "80 cents for 100 bits" could also help adoption.

This is why regulations are badly need in the cryptocurrency market.

I disagree. No one was complaining about lack of regulations during the huge bullrun at the end of last year. Regulations work both ways. If you don't want big swings and volatility, put your money in an investment fund and forget about it.

That the price has temporarily gone down. If you think it's never going to go back up, time to sell and leave crypto forever. If you think it will go up again, time to be patient and wait.

In other news, we know people can pick locks, therefore all bank vaults are no longer safe.

Just because it is possible doesn't mean anything. It's possible the world could explode tomorrow.
16137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Things to Keep in Mind Before Creating Erc20 Token on: May 25, 2018, 08:47:56 AM
What is it's purpose? What does it do that an existing coin doesn't already do better? Why does the token creator need to use blockchain technology at all?

There are already thousands of scam/spam/shit coins out there. We don't need more just for the sake of it.

How about RAKERS, as in someone who rakes leaves, and therefore maintains your garden.  Grin

Seriously though, this one is difficult because there are thousands of words that could fit. We might need an extra clue.

Shortly before his sudden disappearance, he was turned in to a newt. Perhaps he is still out searching for the ingredients for the cure, which may explain his absence from the forum.

As a non-native English speaker, I find OP's post easier to read than native speakers who use some sort of slang and abbreviations.
OP could improve by using a simple spell checker, words as "ennoying" are annoying to read. But I don't think you should be expecting perfect grammar from non-native speakers. It does make me curious how my language is rated here Cheesy

Agreed. We should be quite happy to overlook minor spelling and grammar mistakes if the post is worthwhile and can be read and understood first time. If, however, it is such a word salad I have to read it 4 times and still don't know what you are trying to say, then I'm not wasting my time on it.

I was not aware you are not a native speaker - your English is excellent.
