Hello, this is not advertising. I just wanted to share a good source https://gemvotes.com/ from where I follow all new crypto coins updates. There are also votes, you can see most voted coins. Wink

The website you posted is too difficult for a newbies. First of all, it is the defi project, which is very difficult for novices to operate; secondly, the recommended project is not necessarily a good project, meme coins. The risk is too high.

A lot of those coins look quite low cap too which likely means they're low liquidity.

I can't imagine why something like that wouldn't get spammed too if it's possible to vote on it and the most votes received are around 3000, surely you could make your own coin and pay for it to be bumped up the list (by 4000 people)...
2062  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which timeframe do you use for day trading? on: August 25, 2021, 12:02:49 PM
I normally use 1 min, 5 min and 15 min for intra day trading. 7m or maybe 4m timeframes are potentially a good idea for spitting stuff other people have missed and I normally check my strategy is obvious on more than one chart before opening a position so it'd probably help with that. It's going to be dependent on your strategy though, if you're relying on things like support and resistance, you might be better off looking at what everyone else is.
2063  Economy / Services / Re: Crypto-enthusiasts on: August 25, 2021, 11:48:32 AM
There are some developers here but I don't think there are many.

I've seen quite a few hackathons be offered by some large crypto projects in the past - not sure if they're still going though, you might want to search for them (some might be for perpetual upgrades).

If you know what you want to make you could start working on that too, if not, you might find some fun experimenting with different encryption algorithms/trying to build them.

There's a lot of code for most projects online that you can look at to get inspiration from - a lot of them may be labelled/documented too so it's easier to learn things like standards/protocols the software uses (there are some on bitcoins docs for network stack/packet frames for example).
2064  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: best crypto venture for beginers on: August 25, 2021, 11:38:58 AM
I'd suggest holding most of your balance ~90+% imo.

You can invest whatever you are prepared to lose in other stuff and you might find it easier to learn that way but you might get away with doing some research on stuff and finding ways to make more money - eg exchanges and defi platforms paying a few % on crypto (0.1-8% has been reasonable but for now interest rates are around 0.1-3%).
2065  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Future vs Spot Trading on: August 24, 2021, 06:33:19 PM
What's the reason you're not making a profit with spot? If it's fees you COULD try futures trading - just don't put a lot down. If you're making trades that you close within a few hour or a few days then futures might be good for you - just check you're actually turning a profit before investing too much into it and mål sure you can mamange risk (if you're risking more than a few % on each position/trade, you might be risking too much).
2066  Other / Meta / Re: Why is it restricted to post the recovery mail directly in the forum? on: August 24, 2021, 06:11:17 PM
What is it you're trying to post, I've managed to post and have seen email addresses posted in the past?

Was it the [suspicious link removed] that it was replaced with or something else.

Test email567@example.com

If it was the autogen one, like said above, maybe Theymos just didn't want spam or only responds to the first few messages from an address.
2067  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum on Android on: August 24, 2021, 01:26:29 PM
Imo the app is quite slow when compared with others. I think the initial loading screen is slow on a lot of apps.

A bad phone just will crash or go extremely slowly but I do have 8gb ram and a strong CPU in mine so I think it's just that. I seem to find apps that use the Internet to load take longer than those that don't - but that could just be my experience.

(edit: my slowness could be caused by having a lot of wallets on my device).
2068  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Visa purchases first NFT and crypto prices skyrocket. BTC passes $50k resistance on: August 23, 2021, 08:46:31 PM
This feels kinda strange though, I wonder what they're trying to achieve by this. Although it's still quite a positive thing if visa is cryptophillic, since it's probably the largest payment processor out there.

It might also go some way to proving they're secure if they want to encorporate crypto custody or payment processing in the future.
2069  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to make a popular auction? on: August 23, 2021, 08:25:48 PM
Like the first reply but from a different angle, you might want to find a way to style this as an nft.

Nfts were big a while ago (not sure if they still are or if they've changed a bit - you might want to research that). You could probably also find a marketplace where you can actually sell art too and people can commission it, like etsy. Coming here doesn't really increase your chance of making a sale as I don't think there are many art buyers/collectors here.
2070  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How Bitcointalk assisted in my financial stability on: August 23, 2021, 08:17:47 PM
I think there are quite a lot of people who get into bitcoin at a young age, I started at about the same age as you and know other people who also did. I started off expecting my story to be a unique one and, while quite a bit different from others, there is some likeness between all of them.

Make sure you don't reinvest everything though! Half of what you've got doubled isn't much different from all of what you've got doubled and it only takes a tiny mistake with crypto to become costly while trading!
2071  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to create an Android watch-only wallet from a multisig account? on: August 23, 2021, 05:57:21 PM
Is there a reason you don't want to use electrum on android? I've used a multisig version of electrum on my android before as a cosigner so it should work as a watching only one too.

You have to click to make a multisignstruure wallet and then input the zpubs individually.

You could try working out what format the other two wallet apps present their master public keys as too as it could just be that the zpub isn't capitalised or something.
2072  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Accepting bitcoin as payment for my business on: August 23, 2021, 12:40:26 PM
Did you say you accept 3 coins? I'm curious what the third is (since you mentioned bitcoin and ethereum only).

This is quite good for the adoption of cryptocurrency and seems like it'd be about as easy as contactless - just scanning a qr code, putting in the amount and going from there.

If you grow further, you can issue payment requests to customers either via a tablet or a screen on your PoS if they ever send the wrong amount as then you'll be able to set how much you request (with the qr code request mechanism, you can give them each an individual address to pay then too if you wanted to privatise your companies finances a bit).
2073  Other / Meta / Re: Meriting your own alt account for non abusive reasons on: August 22, 2021, 12:18:21 PM
The proxyban message says you'll be banned if you email for free whitelisting. I wouldn't bother theymos for this:
Do not ask me for free whitelisting.

But that's a proxyban for having evil fees, theymos must've had a lot of messages from that because users were brought on to do the whitelisting (I remember seeing an ann a while ago for that).

I think there are 2 different forms of white listing now too, one for evil fees and one for DMs but I might just be reading these wrong.
2074  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it possible to make $5,000 a month day trading? on: August 22, 2021, 10:30:03 AM
Crypto trading earnings will be quite irratic I think. There's going to be no % accuracy you can bet on earning repeatedly.

I'd say, trading forex or stocks at the moment you might be able to make ~1.5% a week without much risk but there's the problem of that becoming less volatile too after the pandemic and not doing so well - and finding a strategy that can reach that. You'd need a lot more additional capital for both strategies though too... (you're probably better off just holding stocks).
2075  Other / Meta / Re: Meriting your own alt account for non abusive reasons on: August 22, 2021, 08:04:01 AM
- Maybe I am unsuccessful in acquiring a merit or two in the "normal way" while posting with the alt account to get the needed activity points for Jr. Member.

This seems a bit like an admission that you think merits are hard to earn for newbies? And if not, then you should be able to earn them within a few weeks.

I think Theymos might remove the pm restrictions on your newbie account if you sent him a message and asked too...
2076  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Holding KYC Bitcoin and non-KYC Bitcoin on: August 21, 2021, 11:44:45 AM
We were discussing whether it would be worthwhile to continue holding non-KYC bitcoin, because if the price continues to rise, in the future he may have accumulated $100K or more of which he cannot justify the source.
One way to launder it would be to go to non-KYC ATMs, withdraw cash and that same money invest it in Bitcoin in Coinbase. This way he would end up having the same amount of Bitcoin but he would be able to justify the origin of everything.

I often do this when it crashes and conveniently convert fiat to btc for the same amount and then I have that transaction in the records...

Realistically though, this was more of a way to pre-empt my bank account so they don't block me for suspicious activity if I want/need to sell a lot of my holdings. In most of Europe, cash in hand transactions up to €15000 eur are still legal without kyc and aml and estate agents don't even ask where funds come from still they just want your identity to cover themselves and pretend they did that check...
2077  Economy / Economics / Re: Coinbase IPO was the largest IPO in 2021. 86 billion USD valuation on: August 21, 2021, 11:26:52 AM
LOL.. is that even possible? Binance is already traded in the cryptocurrency market (in the form of BNB). Now how can they convert these BNB tokens to shares in mainstream stock exchanges? That may not be impossible, but I suspect it will take a lot of paperwork and formalities. Also, it would e interesting to see in which exchange they will go for the IPO listing. Coinbase is a US-based company and therefore they went for the NASDAQ. However, Binance is based in Cayman Islands and there they don't have a stock exchange.

Bnb are essentially bonds, they'll still be bought the same ways - as in binance's statutory buyback - and will still be used for fee reductions (for as long as binance wants them to).

Their market cap is $75bn but I don't know if that's close to what they're worth.

Binance coin would PROBABLY be a better (short term) investment than a stock though as it'll keep pace with the cryptocurrency market better.
2078  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] ChipMixer.com - Bitcoin mixer / Bitcoin tumbler - mixing reinvented on: August 21, 2021, 02:59:29 AM

I later came back the same day to redeem the remaining voucher but I got a response that the voucher is invalid or already redeemed.
I have sent emails to the team and it has been 48 hours but I have not received any response from the team.

If you're so worried that you might make a mistake or get even more nervous then wait for a response from chipmixer, they should reply within another 48 hours and vouchers don't expire.

Do you know the session token for when you made the 1btc voucher from chipmixer? Are you able to redeem that session, skip to step 3 (I think) where your voucher code is presented and copy and paste the voucher into a new chip mixer session?

Do you know how you originally managed to save the voucher, did you use copy and paste or did you write/type it down? That could've caused the discrepancy.

As a final point, don't store more on a fully online wallet than you'll be able to ignore losing. If you're dealing with 1btc and it feels a lot, break it down into 10, then if that still feels a lot, half it still until you get a comfortable size. Fees a low at the moment but even if they weren't, it's not worth the worry of losing a large chunk of funds.
2079  Economy / Economics / Re: Coinbase IPO was the largest IPO in 2021. 86 billion USD valuation on: August 20, 2021, 11:19:02 PM
I think binance would take a few years to do an ipo though, it's potentially something for about 4 years time but it'll take them a while to get to the point coinbase was at.

I'm also not sure where they'd hold the ipo since a lot of Americans mightve invested because the ipo was in the US, putting binance's in Singapore might make them less trusted and might block US customers from investing too (due to regulations).

Binance will catch up, though with the way they handle things, it would be a long ass time before they get people and enough deep pockets to take them seriously in this route. Too many shady practices still being done on the platform, and I don't think it invites people to invest in one's company.

There does seem to be a lot of issues with binance that people have, and while some are probably just random, others about counter trading and some manipulations would be something I can't disagree with as I'm seeing more signs from their website that they do those sorts of things.

They could and probably should get to the point where they're a bit more stable though - I imagine their teams are quite fragmented though too with them trying to do all of the hiring themselves and not seeming to look for companies that can handle stuff in places they're not accustomed to.
