2021  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Binance to Sue the Block and raises 200 bitcoins to fight fud. on: November 23, 2019, 02:15:02 PM
Biased/fake reporting is a complicated issue and it becomes more complicated when we talk about crypto. Fake news is a trouble to modern internet based communities. Every authorities are fighting against such practices. Crypto relates to freedom but does it mean you can misguide people about something? Simple ethics should be maintained by any media to hold some credibility and users should not consult to ones that have not proven their worthiness yet.
2022  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: China vowed to "slash" crypto exchanges, bitcoin prices plummeted. on: November 23, 2019, 12:31:22 PM
This is not a new rhetoric from the Chinese government but became one of the main reason for the bearish run. China has officially outlawed crypto exchange yet a lot of trading volumes still comes from mainland China. The population is so fluid that the officials have to dictate simple instructions so that they don't go crazy for a trend. They needed to take an action as the market misinterpreted Xi's worlds as a support for crypto trading.
2023  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is this really a good plan? on: November 23, 2019, 02:41:24 AM
Few of my colleagues told me they quit bounty because many new projects are finding it very difficult to reach soft cap and those who manages to reach softcap ends up listing on ridiculous exchanges because of listing fee, a part of me feels like they are right because if a new project fails to aim for top exchange its game over,  the question now is why promoting new projects then?

I too have stopped doing a bounty from the projects. The reward is not worth the time you spend and effort you need to make the claim as well is stressful to wait a long time to watch it get value and just drop before you dump. A rare 1% of altcoin bounties are good and paying a worthy reward and you need to be really lucky to be a part of it.
That's why I've moved to either joining a weekly or daily paying bounties in bitcoin or just not putting the signature and talk(post) wherever and whenever you feel like.
2024  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Adoption of crypto in retirement savings plans growing on: November 22, 2019, 07:50:06 PM
It's a cool investment for the future but current volatility in price of crypto would make people hesitant to do a retirement savings in crypto. What if you won't be able to get money even equal to what you invested today after your retirement. For a long term investment, people still prefer fiat who's value are not so volatile in market.
2025  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IEO: A professional scam on: November 22, 2019, 07:02:43 PM
IEO are ICOs hosted by exchanges. ICOs gets investors with filled wallets while exchanges gets direct money from the project/a commission and probably new users.
Exchanges could do whatever to make the investors believe the IEO token is a good project. And make it seem profitable anyhow. Much of the data are surely manipulated which makes both investors and the exchanges vulnerable for long term.
2026  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Governements Projects and Futur of the Bitcoin Revolution. on: November 22, 2019, 04:56:18 PM
Destroying bitcoin is not the only reason for governments to issue their own crypto. They want to tap the blockchain technology to make fiat or government regulated currency competitive with the popular cryptocurrencies. If they were to act against bitcoin, they would have enacted a complete ban over it's mining, trading and use.
2027  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What can do Governements against Satoshi ? on: November 22, 2019, 02:56:12 AM
If He Forget everything on purpose ?  Cheesy ( Like The genius for remember everything 10 years later everything he did making something he is alone able to see them ).

He know governements probably want to kill him or want him to work for them so he take the risk to be forgotten forever as a legend.

Imagine what he was able to do in 2008 already, when no one in world have the power to change the world, he was the one to believe he was able to start the revolution alone and change entire world by himself.

Nothing, he predicted everything perfectly, he will comeback one day i think he is already back but to crazy like 10 years ago no one believe him already.

Satoshi was very clever in not leaving a trace on everything he did. From anonymously registering for sites and domains and using text only conversation with other bitcoin developers. But if the government really started an investigations, it may track down a past of him using the internet which could lead us to satoshi. There are no restriction to access to data to the government and they can track down through many routes like IPs and Macs. They might even already know who satoshi is but has refrained from making it public.
2028  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No, Bitcoin’s Circulating Supply is Not 18 Million on: November 22, 2019, 01:23:18 AM
There has been some kind of news like this before

Yes there was and it struck a similar debate every time.

In 2017 they were saying that 2.5 million is lost + 1 mill of Satoshi's coins that are out of circulation.
Now it's only 1.5 mill lost? The number is decreasing. In 2022 expect them to come up with another random number. Maybe 4 million this time?
Source: https://fortune.com/2017/11/25/lost-bitcoins/

The coins are ever decreasing. The statistics are not 100% correct as they might be considering the unmoved coins as out of circulation that could also be a wallet of whale hodling.
The statistics may depend on how far in history they are looking and how much wallets they are referring to. There could even be thousands of hundred of satoshi left in abandoned wallets.
2029  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will be Gift of Santa Claus in this Christmas for Bitcoin Hodlers? on: November 21, 2019, 01:13:31 PM
Usually, the price of BTC starts going down couple of days before Christmas, so then the gift is most likely cheap BTC...

Yup. The greatest gift of Santa would be cheap BTC and wisdom to realize it.
This could be the last chance of buying bitcoin below 8K. And it may look like a free after a decade.
But I really hope he brings happiness and pleasure without the stress of how much you  are losing. Patience would be paid in the long run.

His only brother will inherit the 540 million fortune, aka confirming the 540 indeed are mine now, that is him, confirmed.

Months old, but Rudy Giuliani on Epstein's 'mind-boggling' death: It's impossible
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I-mkuQ9eq4

Well the dots do connect. It's highly suspicious why the guards and all of the people responsible didn't did their duty properly. He was not a normal convicted criminal and the guards were not fools. Either he was killed or he was like said by OP made free.
2031  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Here’s How Much of Each Major Altcoin Is Owned by Whales on: November 21, 2019, 11:47:34 AM
I prefer to have more information about these addresses. Are exchanges also in this list? if there is, it would not be right to call them "whales".

We all want to be whales. Cheesy But we are late for the chance these whales got.
Most of them are surely exchanges but the holding of Cardano seems troublesome. This also proves bitcoin is one of the most decentralized coin.
This could also be a good news for investors looking for a bull run as whales still believe in those coins. But it's not a good news for overall intention of crypto.
2032  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bytecoin really scam? How come? on: November 21, 2019, 05:45:09 AM
You seem to have deleted the post that got your red trust. I believe you were doing more than saying good about bytecoin when you got that trust rating.
If you feel your act was not a big issue, try and write it to fluffypony or mail him to get some attention. I hope he would respond your concern.
2033  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Which US presidential candidate is the lesser evil for BTC? on: November 20, 2019, 02:41:22 PM
Undoubtedly Andrew Yang is the number one pro-bitcoin candidate for 2020 presidential elections. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Yang
Though his chances may be less even among the democratic, he'd be a voice of pro-crypto lobby in the presidential debate.
And he is accepting donations in bitcoin.

2034  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Tesla sources cobalt from Democratic Republic of Congo on: November 20, 2019, 02:34:26 PM
Every enterprise has dark sides. They need to do whatever to keep the price low. They are sourcing material from cheap provider, it's not much of their concern how the product is obtained. It's largely the responsibility of the Congo's government to stop child labor and make provision for these kid to obtain proper education in schools. And we should rather pressure/help congo's government to make the change. Pressuring Telsa to stop getting Cobalt from DRC would have even more drastic consequences for those kids.
2035  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: All of you Bitcoin Hodlers are mentally ill - *Must Read! on: November 20, 2019, 01:23:30 PM
No we aren't. And my latest realization has given me insights that hodling is the best strategy. Looking at the price of bitcoin now and again would make you unsatisfied. You may look at it and say the price has crashed from last week but if you look at the long term, the price is still a larger than the average price of bitcoin this year. And much more higher than last. If you keep on hodling, you'll surely get a good profit one day. Just stop calculating your profit or loss everyday. You'll have no profit or loss unless you sell.
2036  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Year 2020 expectations on: November 20, 2019, 01:11:16 PM
I'm predicting a rapid change in the crypto industry. New types of project entering the market while we change the way we trade and hold our cryptocurrency. I'm hoping for doubling of price of bitcoin along with other promising project. I expect some sort of global regulation on fundraising through IEO or similar approach. 2020 would be a deciding year for crypto future for sure.
2037  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Millennials Increasingly Prefer Bitcoin to Gold or Real Estate on: November 20, 2019, 05:27:05 AM
Millennial are saving a few and want to increase their money. Gold and Real Estate are costly and has longer hassle to deal with. On the other hand you can buy bitcoin and crypto while resting in your bed. Millennial loves not going out of their room and bitcoin is a good asset to have profit buying and selling.
2038  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ATMs Worldwide Hit New Milestone, Surpassing 6,000 on: November 19, 2019, 01:46:35 PM
A new record has been set with over 6,000 Bitcoin ATMs installed worldwide. Everyday, cryptocurrency achieves a unique milestone which further puts it in position for global adoption which is inevitable.

We need more of such ATMs and fewer fees. We'd also need OTP counters to change our fiat into crypto, until that every bitcoin enthusiast and trader should act as a mobile exchange counters to ease up people buying bitcoins. Many people don't have bitcoin as they believe it's a hassle to buy and hold it.
2039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Abu Dhabi T10 League 2019 on: November 19, 2019, 09:01:21 AM
Till date the table looks like a random luck as a few balls could decide wining or losing than the team as a whole. Most of the time, half of the team has no contribution than fielding and sometimes a fielder can finish the match even without touching the ball.
Though the game would surely develop new batting and bowling skills as batsmen would devise new ways to hit the boundary while bowler would test their temper and on not letting the batsmen score.
2040  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fortnite, PUBG, DOTA 2, Hearthstone, Apex coming to blockchain? Mass adoption? on: November 19, 2019, 08:50:50 AM
Moving the popular games into blockchain might have several issues. But we could easily build and implement new blockchain based online multiplayer games. It would have several benefits to the traditional gaming but also need to find a way to counter some problems that are constantly being faced by online gamblings like unofficial modding and manipulation.
