Z moich obserwacji wynika, że im większy procent tym wzrosty są mniej trwałe...

Mógł byś wytłumaczyć o co chodzi z tą tabelką i jak ja czytać?

Resztę rozkminiłem na tej stronie i przyznam, że bardzo ciekawe ale tego powyżej nie rozumiem.

Wykres pokazuje ile trzeba płacić dziennie za pożyczanie BTC od innych do margin tradingu. Po drodze bitfinex zgarnia też z tego co pożyczkodawca zarobi 15% dla siebie.

They're clearly serious about staying in the business so I presume they foresaw this and planned accordingly. All the same we've no idea what might trigger them. The people who popped up on here with long term money left on Bitblender is a tad alarming. Users need to readjust their behaviour. Things can happen quickly.

Storing bitcoins on an exchange or other website longer than reasonably necessary isn't the smartest thing to do, but if a site works reliably without issues for years, almost 5.5 years in bitblender's case, people start assuming the business can be trusted. In the case of a mixer there are also privacy benefits towards not spending all mixed coins as soon as possible.

No, this is definitely not going to happen. Because gold is a completely dysfunctional metal. Bitcoin is an investment tool that has more functions than even money.
What do you mean "dysfunctional metal"? One of the reasons why gold is keeping its value is exactly because IT IS functional metal, it has practical use. With all these new options of investing, one could think gold will lose value because it became less attractive compared to stocks and cryptocurrencies. However gold's price is relatively stable and safe investment because it has practical use. In the US, the amount of gold used in electronics is almost the same as in jewelry. And industry of electronics will only become bigger and bigger so demand for gold will increase over time.


For most, if not all uses in electronics, gold can usually be substituted for other metals. Also, globally, only about 10% of gold is used for electronics.

It's also not the best investment when compared with stocks' total return index (appreciation + dividends)

https://www.longtermtrends.net/stocks-vs-gold-comparison/

(scroll down to the 2nd graph)

It's clearly not the best choice as an investment, but it's OK if used as a store of value when everything else goes to shit.

'Everything going to shit' is also something central banks should be preparing for, no one can tell if the anticipated slow down of growth in the US isn't going to turn into one black swan of a recession. A potential Eurozone crisis is also something to be wary of.

Both sites have a history of freezing withdrawals for 'security' or 'kyc' reasons, with some people waiting months to get their money. I'd stick to more trustworthy sites such bustabit, bustadice, or just-dice.
2125  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: LocalBitcoins Cash-in-person trades removed? on: June 02, 2019, 07:13:58 PM
Quite a disappointment if it's not a mistake on their part. In-person cash trades were the reason to use localbitcoins over exchanges, for security and privacy reasons.

Face-to-face cash trades in a safe location are also the safest way of exchanging BTC for cash, there's no worrying that the person sending fiat money via a bank transfer, PP, whatever has hacked someone's account to make the transfer.

Nie ma żadnych przeszkód, live and let live Smiley Chyba że nagroda ma by w innej kryptowalucie/tokenie niż Bitcoin (BTC), wtedy temat powinien być w dziale alternatywnych kryptowalut.

I'd ask devans or RHavar, how they decided to design bustadice/bustabit's precredit systems (if it's something they're willing to share). I'm wondering if they're just following the criteria mentioned by ranochigo, or if it's something fancier. They charge a fee for precrediting, and I imagine they're pretty conservative when deciding which transactions are safe enough.

2129  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Blacklist of exchanges. Independent rating on: May 31, 2019, 11:59:55 PM
Not really, according to https://www.bti.live/exchanges/ Huobi has problem with washtrading, but washtrading lvl is  > 60% while there are some exchanges with >90%

Wash trading is literally about selling coins/tokens back and forth by the same (or multiple colluding) entities for the purpose of creating inflated trading volume. Higher volume -> more suckers -> more money which can be earned from listing fees. They've even admitted that wash trading takes on their exchange but laid the blame on their market makers. >60% volume wash traded (anywhere between 60-90%) sounds like a big deal to me, btw.

While binance wasn't examined at all

OP claims Binance can't be trusted because they're aren't licensed (whatever that means) and that the risk of losing coins is 99%. I don't quite agree with that.

And I think this topic is rather about scams - exchanges which are robbing their users

Nearly all exchanges listed except for binance have a history of nefarious behaviours.
2130  Economy / Speculation / Re: Just Hanging On on: May 31, 2019, 06:38:27 PM
But for those of you who are buying bitcoin now, it's not a stupid idea by any means.  There may be very strong legs on this bull, and bitcoin could be headed back toward its ATH.  In fact I hope it does, but I don't want to see bitcoin at $20k this year or early next year.  If it gets there too quickly, it'll crash and probably even harder than it did in 2017.

If it crosses the current ATH it's likely that the rally will continue for a while bringing new people onto the FOMO train. Right now a lot of people are hesitant and waiting to see where the price is heading.

Anecdotally, in the past several weeks I've received calls from people I haven't heard from since 2017 searching for advice 'when to get in'.  Cheesy Sadly, my crystal ball is busted, but it seems to me that $10k is the psychological level many are waiting for.

alright after this incident, i wanna know what's the legit purpose a normal cryptocurrency user are using a mixer? or the people who use this services are all a people who commit crime?

This topic has been rehashed over and over, so I'll just link to a decent Bitcoin Wiki article on this topic:

Podobne/gorsze historie w Meta i Reputation zwykle dla OPa nie kończą się pomyślnie, plus dla wwzsockiego, że zachował trzeźwe myślenie i nie wpadł w meltdown, bo by go nikt poważnie nie potraktował.
2133  Other / Meta / Re: Obliterate all Aridropped Merit Please @theymos on: May 31, 2019, 05:21:35 PM
I'm against removing all airdropped merit but some sort of activity-based decay (like Loyce mentioned above) would be good I think.

I'd like the number of merits shown on user profile and next to each post to be changed to show earned merits instead of total (or show both, or show merit/posts ratio). Just a display change, without actually removing merits or demoting anyone.

I'd prefer a merit to posts ratio only be displayed if it counted posts made since the introduction of the merit system. I was mostly active on bitcointalk between 2011 and 2014, and 90% of my posts were made before the merit had come to existence, so I'll admit I'm biased Wink
2134  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: website scammer alert!!! on: May 31, 2019, 05:19:21 PM

2135  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: BitCloak Mixer - Important Feature Proposal: Blacklist Addresses on: May 31, 2019, 03:45:54 PM
I wonder what is going to be the extra overhead if your mixer starts processing enough transactions. There's a reason bitcointalk moved away from Scammer tags towards the Trust system, evaluating evidence can be very time-consuming.
2136  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: attempting to recover old BTC on: May 31, 2019, 03:25:47 PM
How if i lose the private key?

You can't spend coins associated with an address if you don't have the corresponding private key. You could look around if you haven't got a wallet file anywhere, or a recovery/seed/backup/mnemonic phrase to a deterministic wallet.
2137  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Still have coins on BITBLENDER? you only have a FEW HOURS TO WITHDRAW! LAST CALL on: May 31, 2019, 02:59:54 PM
I don’t think 2 days was enough either (it should be, but people are stubborn). But I understand why they would do that, and I really don’t think they are doing that on purpose to “exit scam” with the paranoid card.

2 days + several hours is nowhere near enough. Especially considering how (as mentioned above) there are privacy benefits in waiting instead of spending the mixed coins immediately. Most businesses also give their users months of time to withdraw their money. Bestmixer was also more explicit than Bitblender in saying how their service can be used to (potentially) launder money.

https://securingtomorrow.mcafee.com/other-blogs/mcafee-labs/crypto-currency-laundering-service-bestmixer-io-taken-down-by-law-enforcement/

If Bitblender's OPSEC had some lapses (and if they had actually broken the law which I'm not so sure about), then it's on them to fix their shit and return the money they owe. If they needed to take a break before relaunching the site where people can withdraw what they are owed, I think that would be reasonable. But what they're doing now looks more like an exit scam.
2138  Local / Polski / Re: Ranking zaufania Trust - jak działa? Czym jest DT i jak nim zostać. on: May 31, 2019, 02:03:45 PM
właśnie, poszlak, a nie jednoznacznych dowodów.. A my żyjemy niby w kulturze domniemania niewinności - i poszlaki generalnie nie wystarczą, żeby kogoś uznać za winnego (a przynajmniej bardzo rzadko tak się dzieje) wiec skazanie w taki sposób jest niesłusznym  oskarżeniem - a wg mnie takie zasługują na negatywną ocenę...

Negatywne ratingi w systemie Trust to nie jest sprawa karna. Zdarza mi się je dawać gdy poszlaki są wystarczająco mocne, ale w przypadku wwzsockiego nie chodziło o żaden scam, więc na jego szczęście ludzie cofnęli oceny.
2139  Local / Polski / Re: Znowu jestem totalnym zerem!!! on: May 31, 2019, 01:50:03 PM
Gratuluję, bo miałeś dużo szczęścia. Wink Zwykle potrzeba dużo więcej czasu i wysiłku jak już kilka osób DT1-DT2 da negatywne ratingi.
2140  Other / Meta / Re: Marketplace trust on: May 31, 2019, 12:03:44 PM
Interesting opinion.  I've seen many a DT member counter a rating they did not agree with.

DT members, too, make mistakes and/or misuse the Trust system, which isn't difficult with how it's designed and still needs theymos to intervene or introduce changes from time to time.
