Usually I let up to a week's worth of rolls build up, then roll them all out at once, so once in a while I get a win that enables me to buy 100 FUN.  I've locked my FUN tokens away for the next twelve months and any funds I get from the WOF I'm using to buy more FUN (more FUN = more rolls = more FUN) in lots of 100 FUN.

It governance token and by holding the UNI token, we can vote. With the largest transaction value in the DEX field, I think UNI will be an attractive investment because the price will certainly continue to rise

Interesting to know (I don't know much about ETH or the whole Dex / DAapp area of crypto so I appreciate your input) - I see UniSwap is around $25.00 each, so people must think it has an inbuilt value, especially as you say enabling end users to cast votes on changes to the system (as opposed to consensus I would imagine)

If I can make a suggestion that to protect both yourself and the prospective buyer you offer an escrow option where the items are sent to the escrow, or directly to the buyer for inspection then the escrow releases the payment. 

Good luck with your sale - My father has given me parts of his stock from when he did markets around Brisbane including Pokemon and Dragon Ball-Z, so it's good to be able to have a look at other items that are out there at the moment on offer for sale.

And then a big storm that destroyed the electrical grid of many countries struck, overnight we will see a country go into a total financial collapse if that happens, a world without fiat is close to impossible with our current technology because it's so primitive, we are too advanced in terms of war machines but to further our civilization, we can compare it to the invention of fire.

There are plenty of power backup solutions on the market already, not to mention places like data storage facilities provide uninterrupted power supply as do telecommunications facilities.

Companies such as Goal Zero offer power capture (solar panels) and battery storage for end users to be powered up on the go in all situations from hiking and camping through out in the field data collection and the like, so it's a little bit of a stretch to suggest a global power failure is going to occur much less a collapse of the crypto sphere with it.

Money will be removed and replaced with a digital currency system.

I don't feel in the short term that will be the case at all.  With the price of bitcoin on the rise (some say to one million dollars per 1.0 BTC) I believe bitcoin will shift away from being used for Pizza, coffee or tipping online and shift into the commercial sector where it will be used for shifting large amounts of fiat from one platform (bank, merchant, employer etc) to another securely.

Alt coins with non-existent transaction fees (even Lightning network) will in time replace fiat for day to day purchases.
2086  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin after the pandemic on: August 11, 2021, 09:57:44 AM
The share market has rebounded in recent months to prices pre-covid and the bitcoin market seems as though it is now on an upward trajectory to do the exact same thing, only without the hype being spread by a certain car sales man looking to line his pockets.

While I believe people should invest in a small amount of bitcoin each week, fortnight, month ... just remember it's meant to be used to make online payments securely.

I don't mind making a small donation if you were to post a wallet address here or on the webpage - I can do both mainnet and lightning network bitcoin payments.

Do you know what sort of costs you have annually to have the page up and running?  (are there substantial discounts for bulk buy e.g. ten years)?
2088  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Uniswap (UNI) good for investment? on: August 11, 2021, 08:57:55 AM
I've done a handful of trades using the Uniswap DAapp platform within a couple of wallet apps that I use and I can't fault the platform (the ETH TX fees are steep to say the least) but I'm wondering what benefit there is to owning the platform's own Token - better TX fees? 

Better exchange rates?  Don't get me wrong, I'd be interested in getting some if I could find out what the benefit was.
2089  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin doesn't care about Tesla and Amazon on: August 11, 2021, 08:49:30 AM
A company like Tesla would have to dump coins (be it bitcoin, DOGE, or something else entirely) on a daily or at most weekly basis to enable them to continue to send and receive goods from manufacturers and distributors alike.  Tesla may have a vertically integrated to the customer business, but eventually, they have to pay outside vendors.

With the price of bitcoin fluctuating daily, I wouldn't be surprised if Tesla has to cash in daily.

Hello again,

I just thought I'd drop you a note and let you know that I can't seem to connect to your site.  I get the following error:



this is occurring via Tor browser.  I haven't tried it out on Firefox as yet, however, I'll let you know if it works on that platform.
2091  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why hoard Bitcoin? on: August 10, 2021, 09:38:08 AM
It's highly unlikely for any altcoin to overtake Bitcoin in terms of payments and or SoV entirely. Right now, obviously it would make some sense to use alts because not all platforms support Lightning, but in the long term? I think bitcoin wins by winner-takes-most.

Perhaps not in the value of each coin, however, in the total transactions made I think alts such as Ether will overtake bitcoin given the tokens such as ERC-20 are tied to ETH for their "gas" / transaction fees.  If those tokens migrate away from ETH, then ETH (and similar) would loose all relevance leaving bitcoin to take the lions share of daily transactions.
2092  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ATM in a gas station on: August 10, 2021, 09:33:53 AM
Previously what Ive often just seen shared locally is a gasoline station and other businesses, big or small, accept bitcoin payment.  Then now there is an ATM.  Well, it's not new to me because I've seen something like this in other conversations.  But that's it, maybe it's in another region, and it's in another as well.  This is just one of the signs that Bitcoin is expanding its reach and its adoption.  There will also come a time when we will experience using that.

I've noticed over time that service stations and local convenience stores here have at least one ATM within their premises in part as a way for people to get cash for small items instead of the cashier asking if the customer wants "cash out" with their EFTPOS purchase.  (I can't even recall the last time a cashier anywhere asked me if I want cash out).

I'm wondering if by having BTC ATM's inside service stations/convenience stores whether or not this is a first step towards offering bitcoin transactions instead of fiat EFT Huh
2093  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why hoard Bitcoin? on: August 10, 2021, 09:26:02 AM
Hoarding bitcoins is not the best way to help the crypto economy flourish.  It may be beneficial in the short term to help drive up the price by taking those coins out of circulation, but eventually, you will want to cash out.  If there is a sudden downward plunge causing people to dump their bags, then it will cause a rut no different to any stock exchange commodity.

People should allow the price to creep up slowly over time through ever increasing use and acceptance.

Do any of the Womens games get televised in Australia?

I don't normally watch the pre-game talk on channel nine (on the week-ends at any rate), however, I caught this commercial promoting the "Women in League round" this week.  The NRL's own website is very klunky and thin on information about the State Based competitions, or, the Women's games in general, so I'll have to do a bit more digging.

Round 21 of the 2021 NRL Australia finished without a hitch as the SEQ 11 LGA's came out of lock-down (masks are still mandatory for another two weeks)





Oddly enough, I said the sharks, but it seems I had a win on the NZ Warriors (not sure what happened there)  Grin




Week 22 of the NRL 2021 Season kicks off in three days time.



I expect the Storm, Panthers, Roosters, Rabbitohs, Cowboys, Sea Eagles, Warriors and Sharks to further cement their positions in the top ten/eight.

Hello again, I just locked away my FUN for 380 days and was wondering if these tokens will be swapped over automatically to the new Fun V2 token in the not too distant future?  (Sorry if it's been covered in previous questions).

Thanks for the ANN and providing the information concerning the Faucet etc...

I was just wondering if there is any plans to enable a pay to 0x... feature whereby tokens amassed are paid out directly at regular intervals (e.g. weekly) as opposed to having to accumulate on site, then transfer off?

Are there any plans to list on other exchanges?

I'm wondering if the difficulties I'm having make a Uniswap transaction is perhaps the impending London Fork of Etherium?  That might explain why no matter what TX fees (no matter how absurdly high) I just can't seem to make the deal done.
2099  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: The Lightning Network FAQ on: August 09, 2021, 03:19:49 AM
I can't convince bitcoin core to set a transaction fee to zero, the lowest I can go is one satoshi (it sets it to one thousand per kb, but I'm sure you understand what I'm referring to).

I was just wondering, what bitcoin wallet are you using that allows you to set a zero sat fee paid for transactions?

Will you please refrain from quoting an entire 100 line post - please?  Your most recent post just above my post not just quotes an entire previous post, you don't actually make any comments to follow up the post.
