You should consider Lambda for your card generation on demand. The more services you put on a EC2, the slower each gets and you need to needlessly upgrade to a bigger box. Plus if you use graphics based Lambda functions, you'll reduce those costs further. I only keep IIS on EC2 and run everything else on specialized services like DynamoDB for the bitcoin blockchain.

Your interest is accrued daily, but you only get paid on the first business day of every month. The 6% already considers the monthly compounding and it does look correct.
Monthly compounding suggests the interest is accrued monthly, but added to your balance daily. Does the interest amount change every day? Source: I have not looked into the site.  |

Regardless, the question here is not really about a certificate or degree, but perhaps rather more about the relative ease to piggyback off prior existing projects, and create a copy/[spin]/paste type code that resembles some sort of token. The issue I figure is really down to the bad spirit that some people have had in the past, not because of their lack of qualification, but because of their will to take advantage of people, sponsored by the fact that creating a token is easyish. A degree in IT will not solve that.
I was both a CNE and MCSE. I remember the engineering departments at the U of A lobbying hard to remove the "E" from the title. |

This topic seems to be back in discussion so I thought it should probably be done on the appropriate thread. This thread is four years old. Yes, we see you brought this up back then - nice job! The discussion thread is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5300919.0 |

At this point, the intent is to allow a person to generate images which are capable of being printed, and ultimately provide a way that the contents of the card can be verified.
I guess you are going to be the first on my NFCT list! The C is for crypto, meaning the attributes on the cards can be verified. Assuming you find a way to sign the digital asset, and find a way to assign value, I'll put you on the club blockchain and provide free trading. https://nfct.net (not up yet) |

I'm concerned about all the dozens of messages I've received about you using merit as a carrot. :/ (Please don't lie to newbies) Aww, c’mon! Is nothing sacred? I have been warring with OgNasty for almost three years. We ~ed each other when I was at Member rank, and I currently have two red tags on him. I don’t trust him, and I don’t like him. Nonetheless, I can acknowledge that his thread hereby is a legitimate use of source merit to promote the community’s best interests—to promote crypto, actual crypto, not just “wow moon ath lambo” nonsense. My issue is not his teaching members a skill, or using his merit to build positive relationships. My issue is he is lying to newbies - the same way he lied to everyone about his ponzi. Building imaginary buzz to inflate value. My merit giveaway threads have been a bit of an eye opener on these bounty spammers. Who are these bounty managers that are paying these accounts? What sort of fraudulent bounty alt account schemes are these people enabling that people are spending their time making these accounts? Why does the community tolerate this? Not the topic to discuss this issue probably, but I have a hard time not pointing the finger at bounty managers who are clearly failing the community. So OG selfishly merits these users, then he blames others for viewing his merits as valuable?  (Not here to discuss, just warn newbies) |

I recently found out that blockchain.info provides an API that contains web sockets completely free.
If you want to download larger amounts of data, you'll find it slow or... not free. |

Maybe try using the search function next time?
Why so bitter, bro?I appreciate Theymos not providing a false sense of security to newbies. Hypothetically, Theymos could introduce liability if someone clicked a green (internal) link and was scammed that way. We can't add any kind of safety suggestion to links. Treasurer thief OGNasty used this implied trust to raise thousands of bitcoin and lost about 99% of them in a ponzi he KNEW was a scam.. Most of us agree Theymos (the most powerful account here) has interests in the forum. If Theymos writes or does something, he does not contradict those interests. If another person can gain trust, lose $millions and erase the evidence, would you say his interests lie with the forum, bitcoin, or his blessed life? We need to vet those in power and influence. |

That thread is about staking Bitcoin addresses. This thread is about learning to send encrypted messages. You seem confused as your response is completely off topic. As for using merit as a carrot, I'm not the one who was removed as a merit source, you were.
I asked to be removed as a merit source, and you lost thousands of bitcoins due to incompetence. Let's keep this thread on topic - merit should not be used as a reward or commodity. |

It seems like a very small change that makes the difference very clear.
It's a small coding change, but with larger consequences. This forum should not do anything that gives off the impression it's trying to protect newbies from scams, when the scams are not moderated. |

I'm not disappointed being made a King  Who's going to be the Joker? I'm sure we all know that one. " In Chess, kings can move one space at a time, but queens can go wherever they like." -Ava Max Well done BPIP team. Is there any actual plan for these cards? I see they are based on time (DT, last parsed, etc) so printing them out is kind of a waste... |

Loving all the messages I’ve received from excited users thankful to learn a new skill. If you are on the fence about doing this, give it a shot. You can do it!

This is a non-moderated thread to show off your message signing skills. You are not guaranteed any merit by posting here, as that would be wrong. (This is not the illegal merit payment / exchange thread . That thread was locked and relaunched as self-moderated to control anyone who asks questions. This is your first lesson on forum politics. There is already a non-official thread to stake your crypto address. These threads exist in this area only because you will see them first. If you've ever landed in Cancun, this type of scamming will be familiar to you. Make sure you include the date! Example: Address: 1xxx
Message: I’m OgNasty and I lost over 6,000 bitcoin.
Date: 20-12-16
Signature: 1xxx

A "kinetic solar" farm?
Those are two different forms of energy. :/

So the OP ignored the same question from three different posters, and instead posted another vague reply. Can't even spell "lose" correctly. :/

It isn't a legendary rivalry.
Agreed. OGNasty claimed he lost 99% of approx 6,500 btc, then lied about it. I had no insider knowledge obviously. I lost my funds with pirate alongside everyone else.
I’ve never lost anyone’s money. Not a single satoshi.
I can understand his dislike of the way the forum is moving. More projects involving blockchain and less involving notepad and excel. :/ Blaming Theymos for thrusting him into the angst of unknown waters is tacky. It didn't bother OG when unknown waters allowed him to steal forked coins. He did give back the ones Theymos asked for, but only after he got caught. |

Rather than paying the transaction fees for a much larger network, members can transact on a private blockchain and the network fees are paid as you move the value back to the Bitcoin blockchain. Isn't LN serving that purpose already? No, in LN you still pay a fee per transaction, even if it's reduced. With this system, you could put $10 of bitcoin in, buy and sell five thousand times and then only pay the transaction fee on the coin you move back to the main network. The five thousand transactions take place on a private blockchain so it doesn't need to be sent and processed by miners but is still immutable, distributed and public. ( In my usage, "private" blockchain means other than the main ones like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple; it does not mean non-public.) What if their (the token's) Blockchain provider gets stuck at some point due to any reason? What will happen to the transactions ahead and who will bear the losses?
What have we done when that happens to Ethereum? :/ |
