Banks were dropping out! No more Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Nab, Cross River Bank, SHRB, Star One Credit Union etc in Ripple website.

Look at this image

- it's a screenshot of the same page on Ripple website (now removed) in June, July and August 2017.

Some replies:
- You can still see the archive of the page on Bing not for long I guess:

- I think OP is right, they have deleted Youtube content also:

I had the original video (talking with SHRB) but can't find it now.

I copied all the above from source: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ripple/comments/6wyzag/for_ripple_believers_real_adoption_by_banks/

Will go to 0.16xxx/0.17000 in the next 8 hours... after an unjustified increase it is normal to have a big fall.

Exactly.

"PAYING someone to speak at Ripple conference is not the same as securing partnerships and contracts. They're there to discuss tech and future, great if you get a boner for international payment systems. Dogshit if you are investing or speculating ripple. (Especially XRP as Ripple is another product)

They are just paying for names, not even good names. These aren't important connections that warrant the fee, they won't further the brand. The conference is a joke. We've waited long enough, SBI better go live soon or Ripple (Especially XRP) is looking more and more like a great product in theory that no company wants to actually get behind and implement."

This surge is due to a brand new platform called The World Exchange, which allows developers to introduce new cryptocurrencies on the ripple network very similar to ethereum's ERC20 tokens. Meaning, ICO using Ripple platform.

I don't see anything so excited about it as so many others already doing so. Ripple is new to this market.

Bruh wtf that's not truh. The link to your bullshit is at site 165 of this speculation thread, lmao

Why so hard trying to get this down?  Have you missed bargain prices?

What's on 165? Show me

Bitcoin Cash Wins Mining Power as Price Falls Back Below $600

Bitcoin may be winning the battle for investment dollars, but when it comes to attracting mining power, competition is heating up.

After the bitcoin cash blockchain experienced a major adjustment this weekend, the less than one-month-old cryptocurrency has seen a dramatic reduction in mining difficulty, and perhaps more crucially, an increase in its profitability for those providing computing power as a means to secure its ledger.

At press time, bitcoin cash has now attracted nearly 30% of the mining power of the bitcoin network, a figure that is up from just 5% two days earlier.

As profiled by CoinDesk last week, the move sets the stage for a high-profile, real-time test of how two large blockchain markets might compete at scale. As both bitcoin cash (BCC or BCH) and bitcoin (BTC) use proof-of-work to secure their transaction histories, both networks are now effectively competing for hash power.

So, while bitcoin cash may have struggled to produce blocks after the split (miners initially earned less money), that has now changed.

As of last Friday, bitcoin miners are now earning more through the creation of new bitcoin cash, as developers and miners have worked to lower the bitcoin cash difficulty rating that regulates its rewards.

Please, I have 2 questions:

1) How can I join slack channel? Link seems to be unavailable.

2) Where can I read more about red pulse and how it will affect NEO?

Thanks!

1) I think you can best ask somewhere in the NEO Reddit as there should be enough developers there who know the new link: https://www.reddit.com/r/NEO/
2) I suppose you are probably best of at the Red Pulse website itself by reading the whitepaper: https://coin.red-pulse.com/

ICOs will likely affect NEO positively like it generally has done with Ethereum. ICOs have the tendency to not immediately flood the market. In that sense if there are many ICOs involving NEO, then a lot of NEO will locked up and only occasionally sold. This implies a lowered supply and thus a higher NEO price.

Disagree. Most projects and investors (speculators) will dump their coins as soon as the ICO completed. Read this article about the ICO king - Ethereum: https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@calaber24p/we-are-seeing-the-effect-of-icos-on-the-ethereum-price

I am confuse. My understanding is one can only spend Either BTC or BCC/BCH and NOT Both, as the fork didn't increase the total value of my coin holdings. But the value of both coins are difference (Eg: 2k vs 0.7k). If I spend the lower value BCC/BCH, aren't the extra value in the higher price BTC got burnt?

30  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / The Litecoin Core Client Still Doesn’t Create SegWit Transactions By Default on: July 16, 2017, 10:18:19 AM
While researching into LTC and encountered this newly (just 15 minutes ago) published article: http://www.newsbtc.com/2017/07/16/litecoin-core-client-still-doesnt-create-segwit-transactions-default/

The Litecoin Core Client Still Doesn’t Create SegWit Transactions By Default

Controversy is never hard to come by in the world of cryptocurrencies. Litecoin successfully activated Segregated Witness on the network months ago. Interestingly enough, the Litecoin Core client doesn’t generate SegWit transactions by default. One would expect this to have changed by now, yet it hasn’t for some unknown reason. This begs the question if there are any SegWit transactions on the Ltiecoin network to date.

The LTC community was quite pleased when all mining pools came together to activate SegWit. After all, this scaling solution and malleability fix is quite important. Bitcoin users saw this as a way to test the scaling solution and draw their own conclusions. However, it seems things are not exactly going the way as planned. More specifically, Litecoin Core clients can’t generate SegWit transactions by default in release 0.13.2. Considering how this is the latest stable release, it poses a big problem.
Litecoin Core and SegWit Integration

While it is known a future version of Litecoin Core will solve this problem, some questions linger. Having SegWit activated on the network, but not in the Core client is very strange. After all, the goal is to test this solution thoroughly before it is activated on the Bitcoin mainnet. So far, it seems very little active testing has been done. That is quite problematic, considering many people Litecoin can overtake Bitcoin if the latter hits a snag when activating SegWit. Then again, this scaling proposal still remains largely untested on a live network to this very day.

It is important to keep in mind the current Litecoin Core client does support SegWit. However, accessing this feature requires a fair bit of tinkering. Having a default option would make much more sense, but we’ll need to wait for the next release to see that happen. Saying how Litecoin has proven SegWit is safe is definitely not correct at this stage. Once this protocol powers all network transactions, we can start drawing conclusions. Until then, there is no reason to think otherwise.

Additionally, it doesn’t mean there are no Litecoin SegWit transactions either. One Reddit user posted a spreadsheet of information regarding these transactions. It appears the overall number is still relatively small, even though things are picking up a bit as of late. One particular network bloc on July 11th even saw 100 SegWit transactions. That is quite a significant boost compared to a month or so ago. Segregated Witness usage is not as widespread within Litecoin as people would think. That said, things are evolving in the right direction, which is good to see.

32  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / TaaS & Digital Developers Fund create partnership for investing in digital asset on: July 09, 2017, 12:14:46 PM
Besides its trading activity and long-term investment strategy, TaaS is constantly looking to expand its cooperation with other members of crypto space and welcomes new partnerships.

Token-as-a-Service (TaaS), the tokenized closed-end fund designed to reduce technical barriers and investment risks in blockchain assets has announced a strategic partnership with the Digital Developers Fund (DDF), a fund focused on the high growth of digital assets such as domain names (aka Internet Real Estate).

Established in 2010 as the Domain Developers Fund, DDF currently owns over 1,540 premium domains. Rebranded in 2017 as the Digital Developers Fund, the company is now gearing up to raise $90 million via a token allocation event on July 10th in order to expand its operations and asset acquisitions.

The TaaS — DDF partnership allows for transparency of money flows into blockchain projects. DDF is among the very first funds offering free access to all the relevant information investors should have access to at all times. To provide a transparent mapping of the fund’s investment activity post its token sale, DDF will use TaaS’ proprietary Crypto Audit techn­ology.

Michael Marcovici, Managing Director of DDF said:

    “Our mission is to make investing in digital safe, transparent and profitable. We are taking a number of steps to prudently allocate the funds raised in our token sale that starts Monday, June 10th, 2017. TAAS’ Crypto Audit is a key component to give investors transparency and therefore reassurance in our investment strategy.”

Taas’ Crypto Audit is a set of monitoring tools that let any member of the public to easily validate the trading history and portfolio balances. Among the most useful features, the technology includes regular blockchain snapshots, proof of reserves and view-only API keys. The technology has already achieved significant milestones with the adoption of an automated system inclusion of new tokens in the balance and rolling out the total value of the portfolio. TaaS is currently working on enriching the Crypto Audit technology’s functionality to offer the most user-friendly interface.

Ruslan Gavrilyuk, co-founder, and President of TaaS said:

    “Due to the exponential growth rate of crypto assets, we understand that there is an urgent need to provide investors with relevant tools to guarantee transparency of funds’ activities. We welcome the initiatives taken by DDF to ensure the highest standards of transparency of their fund’s performance and we are happy those chose TaaS’ Crypto Audit technology as their third-party provider.”

Mr. Gavrilyuk recently joined DDF’s Advisory Board to provide his expertise during DDF’s token allocation.

Blockchain Exchange Bitsane Introduces Ripple Trading at Consensus 2017 - June 5, 2017

Ripple purports to enable secure, instant and “nearly free” global financial transactions of any size with no chargebacks. Ripple supports tokens representing fiat currency, cryptocurrency, commodity or any other unit of value such as frequent flier miles or mobile minutes. Ripple is based on a shared, public database or ledger, which uses a consensus process that allows for payments, exchanges, and remittance in a distributed process. In addition to web-based trading and exchange platform, Bitsane also enables its users to trade on their mobile devices. The platform offers full API access to developers, encouraging them to build powerful cryptocurrency applications using Bitsane’s tools and services. Bitsane’s recent support of Ripple to fiat trading and its major contributions to Consensus 2017 represents the growth of the company, which from being a startup has graduated to become a mature cryptocurrency business. With a growing footprint, Bitsane is asserting itself in an increasingly competitive market. The cryptocurrency exchange is already the biggest in Ireland, and as it continues its current path, it could soon become one of the world’s leading platforms.

36  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][XLM] Stellar - Decentralized trading platform on: May 16, 2017, 06:11:00 PM
IMHO STR is unsafe investment. Just read the news from cryptocoinsnews and I sold all my Stellar. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/opinion-earth-going-ripple/

Quoted from the article:
Jed McCaleb (Ripple founder) and others in the Ripple Labs had a dispute, so he left to fund a ripple clone called stellar and threatened to sell his 10 billion ripples at a market rate. They are now in a legal battle so that 10 billion has not yet been sold. Moreover, a flaw was found in stellar’s consensus system in 2014, which is similar to ripple’s with stellar’s chief scientist concluding that the stellar system is unlikely to be safe “when operating with “more than one validating node,” [because] when consensus is not reached, a ledger fork occurs with parts of the network disagreeing over accepted transactions.” Ripple’s chief cryptographer concluded that stellar (created by ripple’s founder) had incorrectly implemented the consensus system and that ” there is no threat to the continued operation of the Ripple network.”

Anyone using LiveCoin.net receive Posw divident? I am still waiting for the payout.

Did you have your posw in an sell order? Because you won't get the dividends if you have your posw in an open order

No sell order but I have buy order opened. Will it affect the payout?

But did you have your posw available to withdraw not in an open order? If so you should've gotten the dividend

I don't really understand.

Current situation:
- Posw stored in Livecoin wallet. Can be seen from Balance.
- No sell order opened, as I am not going to sell any of it.
- Buy orders opened (with BTC) for few days, as I wish to buy more when the price drop.
- No withdrawal request.
