I think FOR THE TIME BEING we weathered the biggest storm of this bear market and slowly we are seeing an increase in volume on Coinmarketcap. Now we are over 400 Billion USD and I think we bottomed out at around 2.5 billion if I am correct. I think soon we may break the 9k USD resistance level, then if we are lucky get back to double figures. A lot of other coins went up today but shame that my two biggest bags have seen a small decline, thus my portfolio only went up in dollars over night not in BTC, which is kind of a shame really.

I am here just wanted to ask me is a bounty hunter (people who work bounty) here I am still confused how to choose a good bounty of coins ?? for me to do because most of his coins ico die before in can grow

Correct. A Bitcointalk fork is being prepared already by a group of members who are fed up with the Lauda gang.

It's a matter of all members with rankings below Sr. Member. Basically, this is not profitable for us, but it's also a nice change, if we just stay in the bounty section, we never get the reward for getting ranked, we have to learn something, contribute to this forum. Because, this forum not only has a part of the gift. There are many things that need to be learned in this forum. You can go to Altcoins, a Bitcoin discussion or a trading section to learn more, this is very useful. in the same state at the moment and I'm pretty sure Merit will not solve the problem they want to solve.

I read 2 books lately about money and crypto:

-the Breaking Point, its mostly about the imminent market crash we gonna experience due to a bigger bubble than Bitcoin
-Digital Gold, it's a really good primer to start and understand all the long story of Bitcoin and the first people involved

looking to read Internet Money now!

Now that "Merit" has been introduced into the forum in other to encourage high quality posts of members, would that have any positive effect on members who might have received negative trust as a result of shitpost and not scam accusation? Particularly if they receive "Merit" on their current post base on the high quality as compared to what their post use to be in the past.

That’s a real insult to those of us newer users who have been working hard, and having our hard work recognized with merit.

But at least you more or less openly admit that your objection to the merit system is medical:  You have an allergy to hard work.  Dirtball.

Relax man. Merit system is implemented just about a week ago. Currently, there are certain problems with it but we still don't know what it will bring about. It's better to spot the problems happening than just complaining that the system is bad.

Hey, look! We're at contrived idea #2 already. Things are moving quick.

Now, don't worry. Not only is it true that actmyname = Lauda, but dig deeper in the Reputation threads and you'll find that actmyname = Lauda = aTriz = DarkStar_ = hilariousandco = thermos

Recent  utterances from India's finance minister seem to have stricken fear in the entire cryptocurrency world. Utterances and   
government decisions from these  countries seem to have massive effects on cryptocurrencies. What's the way forward for cryptos, especially  bitcoin without these countries.
