Drug abuse can damage the young generation of and to avoid ourselves from drugs we can to apply ourselves to live healthy and positive thinking, hopefully help.

If there is enough awareness, then there will be no damage to the human body. If you use weed or mushrooms once in a while, then it may be be refreshing for the mind and body. I still don't understand why weed is illegal when tobacco is legal.
Read up on Nixon and the war on drugs and you'll know exactly why weed is illegal.

It is noted that recreational use of psychoactive substances is often associated with society. Consumption can occur at parties, in campaigns, on holidays, in clubs or other places of group rest. The frequency can range from weekly or monthly to more rare, occasional use[1]. The prevalence of this phenomenon is quite high: for example, it is estimated that in the US about 9% of the population has ever tried marijuana

People need to start realizing that nominal coin price is completely irrelevant. A coin for $50 can be insanely expensive and overpriced if the supply is too large. Similarly, a coin in the thousands can be dirt cheap if the supply is really low. And then there's a whole bunch of other fundamental factors as well.

BTC dominance is sinking and sinking.

I don't really like this.

Altcoins are thriving just as before the crash and it gets worst.
That's to be expected considering that there is only one Bitcoin and over a thousand altcoins. I don't really see an issue with that though, especially when considering that most altcoins are bound to eventually evaporate like dot com companies and the likes.

Yeah, the % dominance thing on coinmarketcap is a complete farce. Since they count literally every new shitcoin they add to the list, then every time a shitcoin gets added to their listing, and then it wash trades a few coins up to a $1M market cap, Bitcoin's % dominance goes down. So '% dominance' is a meaningless metric now.

There were 1400 coins listed in Nov. Now there are 1516. So 116 new shitcoins added to coinmarketcap in the last two months.

What does that tell you?
I think that's a good fair point I hadn't considered before really.  Many of these coins with small to mid "market caps" on cmc are probably worth a fraction of the reported value.  I don't think it necessarily applies to the larger cap coins though.  If you remove the "other" from the chart it's still a fairly major chunk of dominance that has shifted.
If you watch the charts very regularly you'll notice wash traded coins popping up and disappearing on a quite frequent basis. Part of me wants to just throw small bucks at every shitcoin just to sell the washed up pumps, but that gambling part of me can't compete with the part that seeks predictable metrics of value. I also don't feel like supporting their scammy little shit games just to turn some extra profits.

That Bitcoin has got to be one hell of a mighty beast to still have such a massive market share. The dominance metric should be removed or replaced though, perhaps only count the top 100 coins, or only coins that surpass a certain threshold.
1990  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What is the common cause of poverty? on: February 10, 2018, 02:53:30 PM
The common cause of poverty are:Ignorance, illiteracy, unemployment, population growth,lack of basic needs of life.

Nope... the no.1 cause is over-population and the scarcity of the resources which results from it. If the population density is low enough, then the individuals will be having enough wealth to distribute among themselves.
I don't think so. Even in a world of abundance there'll always be a group of people that will own significantly more than everybody else. Most people are just simply satisified with very little and don't strive for more. Only very few people keep pushing no matter how far they go. You can see this phenomenon literally everywhere, from wealth distribution, to gaming skills, to academic or athletic achievement, in art and music, you name it.
1991  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ANN [MCO] MONACO #1 Cryptocurrency Payments Card on: February 10, 2018, 02:44:18 PM

Does anybody here have a few more info about the Monaco Jade Green Card? It's not clear if this is going to be a new available card or a replacement of an existing one (or a simple marketing trick)
Could possibly be the 5000 MCO card that was being talked about.

Yea this seems most likely. Although monaco has said they weren't happy with the look and feel of the grey and rose gold 500 mco cards, as they wanted them to feel more 'premium'. There is a small possibility this could replace that but I'm just speculating.
I'm not happy with the current 500 MCO cards either, so I wouldn't mind them adding Emerald Green to those. The Ruby Steel looks much better than the current 500s as well.

Right. I saw that Ruby Steel are the best look from all them.
But I choice Grey because was "better". I wanted take Ruby Steel too but mobile app dont allow have two cards so I am sad. I thinking about change this Grey to cheaper Ruby Steel because this one is very beatifull. Really I dont care about different 0.5% cashback so I think I change to Ruby Steel from this Grey steel. Its dont matter for me price 500 or 50 MCO but I want the best look card. If I cant take 2 cards I change to Ruby Steel.
I was on the same side as you are, but if you consider the cashback and actually hold the tokens instead of using them, then the additional 50% cashback (1% to 1.5%) would be a substantial amount of money depending on how much you spend with your card.

Let's say you spent 100 grand in the first year and MCO was at only $100 by the end of that period. You'd have gotten over 15 MCO instead of just 10 in cashback. If MCO establishes itself and really ends up as a major global player, the token price could rise to as high as $5000, which would result in a difference of over $25000 in cashback.

It'd take years to grow this high, but if you're spending a lot of money anyways this would be a good way to increase your position substantially without changing anything other than the card that you use. That's why I'm hoping that the Emerald Green will be a 500 MCO card.
1992  Other / Ivory Tower / Re: When is it safe to give our KYC/AML info? on: February 10, 2018, 02:36:37 PM
I don't think it's ever safe. There's ridiculous amounts of KYC info on the DNMs and it has to come from somewhere. I have a hard time believing that the bulk of it would come from phishing and think it's safe to at least suspect a potential breach of trust by KYC "collectors".

Just like emails, addresses and phone numbers are being sold I'd assume KYC/AML info is up for sale.

I'm not really sure how this problem could possibly be addressed either, since even without the people that we may or may not trust our info with selling it directly, there's a very real risk of their servers getting hacked or socially engineered.
1993  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Legalization of drugs? on: February 10, 2018, 02:32:33 PM
Drugs - legal, prescription or illegal are being used to serve the depopulation agenda. They reduce fertility and longevity. They also harm the immune system to make people more vulnerable to pandemics like the current 'flu viruses.

Step back and wonder why the country that spends the most on "health care" ( the US ), is the most unhealthy of all the developed nations.
That seems like a gross overgeneralization. Drugs in general do not reduce fertility and longevity, some of them actually increase either or both. The same is true for your second claim.

Although I would be inclined to agree with your last statement. It does indeed seem like US pharma is actively making people sick for reasons that I'm sure we all can imagine.
1994  Other / Serious discussion / Re: To all scammers on: February 10, 2018, 02:27:17 PM
I think we all have been scammed at one point or another. The longer you're here the higher your chances..

I don't think that these scammers will every be caught. With mixers, exchanges and altcoins they can easily hide their tracks.
They won't be caught, but I'm fairly confident that they will end up ruining themselves psychologically. I don't think a human can be content with life if all they do is take or even steal and never give back. That seems in line with the rising depression rates, most people don't create anything these days and get free rides thanks to overall human progress.

Why would you doubt that? It sounds sensible. Have you seen how large the blockchain file is nowadays? It's nearing 200 GB. And it's far more convenient to run a light wallet than to download the whole blockchain for average consumers and users.

Providing KYC documents for bounties is pretty much the antithesis of Bitcoin. Not sure why anyone would participate in campaigns that require you to give up your anonymity.

You cant argue with conspiracy theorists, otherwise you are part of the conspiracy.
That's not how it works. There can be multiple reasons to argue with a conspiracy theorist, ranging from entertainment to open intellectual discourse. Neither of which make you part of a conspiracy.

Most likely Q2 2018. A pleasant surprise would be to have them before that.

why it takes so long Huh
Because it's a very complex ecosystem that depends on multiple players. You can't just crap out a good product.

Dogecoin, an utter joke, always has been, always will be.

At least is still decentralized, and the inflation rate is known. There are several worse scams in the top 10 cryptos, not to say of the rest.

That said, the mass will be always scammed, in one way or the other. But being scammed with shitcoins is an huge progress because it's voluntary, so it teaches responsibility and it let ppl's awareness grow instead of being reduced to spoiled brats of the government.
Doge isn't a scam. It was incepted as a self-aware meme. And frankly speaking I'd be more willing to use Doge than fiat currency if the infrastructure existed. I wouldn't throw money at it, but in the case of a binary choice between fiat and Doge where Doge could be spent just as easily as fiat I would go with the latter any day.
