This is just a provocative post.

Satoshi is a genius. If he didn't disapeared, he would have been killed by the CIA.
Also BTC is still the most solid blockchain ever, so, he did the base alone, when no one had a clue about how to do it.

Now it is easy after 15 years to criticize but I have a lot of respect for the man and what he has done.

I would like to understand the relationship with BTT? Does it will be totally separated from the current BTT token? Does this will make the token more valuable?

You will probably get a better response asking in r/ethdev or on this developer k2sjjY7RYs

Probably that +50% of the wallet holders were not ok with the changes about Mining ETH2 and they decided to not upgrade as a protest.

Now the result is that the mainnet has changed hands. This thing is out of control.

The ETH is having an infatuated value that is totally fake. This will end up really bad.

It also shows that Ethereum lied about the number of wallet that were supporting the fork (+70% stated their website, now we know that it was fake).

You can dig this rabbit hole as deep as you want. The s*hit will hit the fan and it will hurt the whole crypto.

26  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / ETH chain split and its consequences on: August 31, 2021, 12:27:31 AM
Interesting to read.
https://news.bitcoin.com/worlds-second-leading-crypto-network-ethereum-splits-into-two-chains/

as a blockchain developer, I know too much the consequences of a chain split. If ETH split affect 50% of the users, that means that right now, 50% of the users are trading on the wrong chain.
The price of ETH is fake, and based on 2 blockchains, and not 11 Billions of coins but 2x more!

The exchanges based on the old chain have 2 choices:
- keep it the way it is and then ETH will be officially split in 2 forever.
- reverse all the transactions since the fork, and face legal action from their users.

This is a terrible mess.

I think that all the crypto will be affected. Logically the price of ETH right now is inflated because miners and users are stuck in their own chains and most exchanges do not allow them to deposit or withdraw them.

Let's talk an example of an institutional who have 100,000 in ETH and sold them. Now he learn that the sell is not saved in the right blockchain, but he got the USDT and paid his client!

How all of this will be fixed?

The price right now is inflated because people cannot sell their coins in a panic sell, exchanges are blocking that.

But what is going to happen next? What about the confidence in the Blockchain technology, what will be the consequences for all the smart contract based on ETH and that are on the wrong chain? Theter for example and all the DEfi and NFT?

I am in cash waiting the crash to come, as it will be massive. I think that we are heading to something similar to what did happened in 2000 with the Nasdaq and the ecommerce.

I hope I am wrong, if someone has a more positive analysis, I want to know.

28  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin difficulty will drop in 8 days. on: May 24, 2021, 09:58:13 PM
With the current situation, the Chinese ban on mining, and the fact that the difficulty raised last time, it is fair to draw that the difficulty will drop.
What will be the consequence for the BTC value?
My guess is that it will raise, because of that.

Why? How the difficulty affect supply or demand?

Lower difficulty means that mining is more profitable. It makes BTC more attractive.
That's the main reason why ETH is so high now, raising price of ETH made it more attractive to mine. Ask to the gamers who cannot buy an RTX video card because of that!

You cannot connect the dots? You think that these people are not coordinating to make billions? Then you are living in a fairy tale. About money, things are not happening randomnly.

So what? You solved it. Congratulation ... will it give back your money you already lost on 50% market crash? NO. Does it help in predicting future price moves? NO. So you just wasted your time.

Do market operators (AKA market manipulators) use mass media to help with position that they have opened? For sure. Do they open their position randomly and then force market to do what they want or maybe they analyse chart, environment to see that BTC has no support below 50k, that pumped too hard too fast, that market is full of newbies, full of tik-tokers and shorting BTC is the most profitable scenario at 60k range? So they shorted BTC and than started to FUD? So all you had to do was to analyse chart and emotions on market to know that they will dump and send FUD. Not analysing what FUD news they used post factum. Creating such stories has 0 value for your wallet.

So they use musk for fud... ok .. possible. They use china ban crypto fud... for sure. They did not dump crypto to destroy Chinese government crypto... XD ... thats hilarious.

"Suddenly Wall Street can accuse China of the fall of crypto." This is even more stupid. What for? Crypto dumped because it has no value - thats the WS whales narrative.

Why the hate and aggressivity, lot of people believe the narrative in the press. It is good to have another bell and try to understand what is happening behind the curtain. Bring your analysis, be constructive.

Wear this hat. This should protect your brain cells from bad people attempting to influence yours behaviour using 5G... I'm sure all this bad people will try to stop you from telling everyone true.
A lot of hypotheses collected in 1 threads and none of them has anything to do but guesswork. Most of them are simply stupid because of lack of ability to compare a scale of events. You see an apple lying in the middle of the street and you assume there must be an apple tree nearby. You do not take into account that an apple tree in the middle of the street would be absurd, that it is more likely that this apple just fell out of someone's bag.

33  Economy / Economics / Assault of Wall Street against crypto, fault put on the Chinese. Opinion. on: May 22, 2021, 05:06:55 AM
In 1 month everyone has lost 50% of their value in crypto.
The banks had just offered crypto portfolios to their investors.
Everything was perfectly coordinated.

The message is as follows.
"WALL Street is the best investment. USD $$$ is the best currency. Crypto is just good at losing your money."
"Practically, the USD raised 50% against crypto, everyone should have sold."

This is all an attack on the crypto by the institutions and by the American FED.

The signal for the attack was given by their puppet Elon Musk, and the banks looted the portfolios they had just created, teaching their investors a lesson.

Because the digital Yuan, the official Chinese crypto currency was just introduced on May 12, this kills 2 birds with one stone and flops the Chinese government crypto.

These fools saw nothing coming from the Machiavellian plan. They pushed their crypto by banning Bitcoin mining! How stupid.

Suddenly Wall Street can accuse China of the fall of crypto.

But in reality it is indeed the US and European capitals investors which has suddenly withdrawn 1 Trillion off the value of the crypto.

The global financial system continues its hegemony and continues to manipulate people to make profit.

Just be aware of what is happening. The financial system is not better than ever, lot of conflicts and wars leaded by Europe and US, and inflation is coming big time!
The banks were in the red, they raided their own investors crypto portfolio and refilled with some cash.

34  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Warning to all the crypto investors and Bitcoin supporters on: May 19, 2021, 06:39:34 AM
I want to send a wake up call to all the crypto supporters and specially on this very forum that has seen the creators of Bitcoin exchanging their first comments and built Bitcoin from scratch.

Elon Musk is the worse thing that has happened to the crypto since 2008, and he is a real thread to its existence.

Not only he is already a Billionaire, so what the f*ck he is playing with crypto? To have more billions over his billions? but he is the product of Wall Street and is trying to disrupt the whole crypto world by ridiculizing it.

From the start he is playing with us, like with a video game, and now he is trying to put the crypto to shame, and if crypto loses the confidence of its investors, it will fall in rubble.

His goal is to prove that crypto is irrelevant by destroying Bitcoin and making Doge a bigger capitalization.

His actions are ruining millions of small investors who are putting their economies into the crypto with the hope to have a better future than what the fiat finance can offer to them.

Elon Musk is a pure product of the financial system, he is not your friend, he is your enemy.

We need to unite to resist to the temptation, to greed and to fear, and do the opposite of what he wants. Who want to be a puppet of a billionaire who is manipulating the market in his own interest? We will only lose if we go this path.

So this guy is evil and if you suck his feets, then do not complain if he crash the Crypto for good. He has no interest in the existence of the crypto, he is the by-product of Wall Street.

Please, unite against this guy, dump DOGE, and pump BTC now that he has sold his stockpile, put him to shame and show the world that crypto is (still) a real revolutionary movement.

35  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What is happening with Coinmarketcap? on: May 19, 2021, 05:14:25 AM
~snip

We think it's normal. It is impossible for Coinmarketcap to track transactions without complete information. Exchange is the main thing, besides that the website is active. Maybe a lot of tokens are registered there but their website is dead, even CMC no longer records token transactions. Maybe for project developers, this is something that is hard for them. But for those of us who invest in crypto, we really need detailed information.

Our token has all information necessary, but they want a certain (undisclosed) volume daily. Otherwise, we got no feedback about any missing information. We are traded on 3 pairs at CREX24 (for 1 year with Kryptofranc and 2 months with the new name FRANC after a swap).
I think that it is just a matter of time.

But while Kryptofranc is not traded anymore, they are tracking it. And our new coin FRANC is actively traded but is not tracked. There is a lot of sloppiness.

Consequences are that our investors can track the disabled KYF on Blockfolio but not its Swapped instance FRANC.

Anyway our websites are here https://franc.eu.com, our project is here https://wolfonlinekingdom.com and we are legit (developing for several years). There is no missing info.

I hope that Coinmarketcap can improve their accuracy! What if Google was still indexing non functioning websites, and refusing indexing new ones because ... hum .. I don't know.
I hope to see FRANC in their tracked list as well as our investors. Not everyone have millions and an ICO, that's corporate thinking that capitalization defines a projet, and Crypto should give a chance to new projects based on their project and hard work.

Let's assume i have created a game, and then created ERC tokens (Example swords) so the player must buy a token to be able to play the game.
What if someone creates similar tokens in his wallet and injects them into my game as if they are bought from my tokens store Huh

This is not technically possible, a token has an address, you cannot mismatch 2 tokens or that means you don't know how to program your shop.
37  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Listing coin in a big exchange ask for a refundable security deposit? on: May 16, 2021, 07:26:40 PM

Never heard of an exchange asking for a refundable security deposit in coin listing but if that's a big exchange like you mentioned, I don't see any problem with that as no way they will put their name on becoming sh*t as it will ruin their reputation.

But anyways, can you disclose in public the name of the exchange? We can get a better response from the community if the name of the exchange will be mentioned. And are you sure you are dealing with their legit representative?

I have actually dumped the people I was talking too, because of suspicion of scam. The exchange was Bithumb.
I also doubt that big exchanges would charge a security deposit of 4 BTC (lot of money) and refund it later. I guess that once you have sent the 4 BTC, you will never heard about these people.

I do not have 4 BTC anyway, so the discussion was over. But I am still doubtful, I haven't seen articles or reports about these kind of practices, so if it is a sophisticated scam, it is good to report it here and let people know, to avoid some people losing all to these scammers.

This is more than suspicious. I doubt you will find anyone on this forum who had to provide a security deposit. What was the reason they mentioned? Just to get started trading over there at Bithumb? Usually they aren't scammers, maybe you didn't even talk to people from Bithumb and fell victim for phishing?

I was contacted via Discord. Then they asked me to fill a very simple listing form at @bithumbcorp.com website. Their emails were listing@bithumbcorp.com and everything sounded legit.
They said that they passed the project review (took a week).
Then they created a Telegram account to ask some questions (3 people were there)... the conversation ended up talking about a deposit of 4 BTC for legal reason in case the coin has some litigation issues. This is when I felt the scam and stopped everything.
It is not the first time that I am contacted by people claiming this kind of security deposit, so I immediately catched up the scam.

I have since investigated the emails I received and they were forged, using
"Received: from wgh24.whogohost.com (wgh24.whogohost.com [23.94.191.186])"

You need to read the headers of the email to find the forgery, so it is quite a sophisticated scam, that involves several people and running for weeks.
I am 100% certain now that it is a scam, I am web dev for +20 years and these are very well crafted scam, not your regular Nigerian guy.

I would advise all coin developers to NEVER send BTC for listing your coin. Use USDT instead and be sure that they do an invoice from inside the exchange, that you can pay from money transfered to the exchange first.
Every transaction outside the exchange is suspicious.
Every transaction in BTC cannot be blocked.
USDT has a way to block a transaction and restore the funds, not BTC.

That's my conclusion about this event.
I also was scammed by people using a kucoin domain that was using a different type of i (using ì instead in the domain name. They had re-created almost all the visual for the exchange using kucoìn.com domain. On my 4K monitor I cannot see the difference with the original domain.

So guys be careful, these scams are very sophisticated even for web veterans.

Will, just from reading the first couple of lines of your message here it was obvious that it must be a scam. They set up another telegram account haha. That's the point where you should have started laughing because they are so bad at scamming. Happy you got to find out in the end! Wink Take care!

It was not really like this, they created a group with Telegram and 3 people joined. That was the final shot to try to get me into the scam. It was not so obvious.

Elon Musk is John McAfee. John McAfee is Elon Musk. I sent tweets to Mr. Musk telling him to stop the manipulation because he is playing with fire. Now it's up to him, but what he did may not pass without consequences. Being a billionaire doesn't mean you can do whatever you please. A lot of people lost cash already and aren't happy about it.

No I think that McAfee was acting alone, while Elon Musk I think is the puppet of the regulators. Big difference.
39  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Elom Musk is farting, the whole crypto suffocates! Is Elon working with SEC? on: May 13, 2021, 08:15:07 AM
The attitude of Elon Musk seems to be as stupid as can be. Of course some will say that when he manipulates the markets with big announcement like Tesla will accept Bitcoin, then Tesla will temporary stop accepting them, and soon Spacex will accept Bitcoin, this seems like a kid playing in a sandbox with friends.
However, this also enlight how crypto can be manipulated and needs some kind of control from the government.

Elon Musk is too connected to be acting alone playing this game.
I suspect that he is trying to enlight that markets are subject to manipulation and needs to be regulated, and give to the SEC the right pretext for doing it.
I can see coming the fact that the SEC will investigate him, and I cannot imagine that he is jumping in the dragon mouth without having a pre-agreement to do so.

So guys are you going to continue to dance with the SEC's joker? Or ignore his puppet dance?

Because, with Bitcoin doing a fork, Ethereum doing a fork and Elon giving the SEC a reason to bite and legalize the crypto under strict oversight only, which will end most of the crypto by making them illegal in US and Europe. The consequences for your portfolio will be huge.

What do you think?
40  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Listing coin in a big exchange ask for a refundable security deposit? on: May 13, 2021, 08:05:18 AM
Can you name an exchange to investigate?
But I, who have a small trading volume and also trade in several exchanges such as Binance, c-patex and graviex, usually have not received any money from me as a deposit and I suspect that this is a scam project.

Exchanges are fine, the problem is coming from scammers who are impersonating an exchange in a very sophisticated way.
Scam projects are easy to detect, just check their news, website and community. As for FRANC, we are doing crypto for +3 years (was Kryptofranc before) did our own blockchain that was working 2 years, and now we are doing this https://wolfonlinekingdom.com a social network with an economy based on crypto.
That's a lot of time and work put into a token.

Now some fancy projects with many people involved are scams, as you don't need to have a company with 10 people in an office to have a great project. These videos and fake websites are built for $20k paid to some Eastern countries. They handle everything for you, the 300 pages audit, the actors playing the CEO, the fake Linked-in etc...
So mainly the project itself is the only real thing that can separate scams from reality.

I agree that it is confusing for every one. And for us who are working on a real project, it is even harder to fight in this toxic environment.
