221  Economy / Economics / Re: Holdings of gold vs Holdings of btc on: September 10, 2017, 09:39:18 AM
Gold is like what? 8 trillion. And Bitcoin is closing on 80 billion. So bitcoin just needs to grow x100.

Something we will see in our lifetime maybe.

And while we are at gold discussion, take a look at tokens that peg themselves to precious metal such as SLVR.

KickIco is very interesting because lot of useless !

But SLVR also, Spheris also. Soon SuperResistantFund !

That depends about rentability and time.

For me SLVR is really big at 5 years.

I am supporting SLVR, the fact that they doing "real life stuff" not just trading. And am interested also to hear your point of view Smiley

Please share.

If you are looking at ICOs atm, I'd recommend these:

Kin by Kik - they are a big established company unlike many ICOs without product
Kyber networks - backed by a huge list of people
Slvr - pegged to real asset by pegging to silver

For already listed ones, maybe golem or waves. These two are considered less known by ordinary people standard.


Are you serious about kin kik? There are 10 thrillions tokens!!! Only 10% of them will be on the ICO. KYC with pretty long verification process(mine was week or so). And this:

"He believes that the ICO will provide an adequate return for the existing investors, which would take pressure off a possible acquisition or an IPO."

Holy shit, 10%. I missed that. Is that in the WP?

Im a big Silver guy, the world most undervalued asset, but if you don't hold it, you don't own it.

I thought I replied to this thread, must have failed to send.

Btw, I feel you, it's better to hold it than to have someone hold it for you.

Having said that, we have moved to not holding assets ourselves. Most of our cash is in the banks, in digits. And good precious metal storage uses mutual funds where the fund manager helps spread the risks between different mining projects. I see SLVR as a kind of fund manager, minus the big fees of course.

If you want to do something beyond trading, support a token with a cause, especially one that does something in real economy.

Do you know M-Pesa? It was a great project in Africa and people moved from cash to cashless, some say faster than most western market. I want am supporting SLVR ICO because it is pegged with Silver, so it has the qualities of a fiat, without the hassle of it's issue (government etc)

Best case is that you can still trade your tokens for SLVR if you decide not to hold them anymore.

Cool one.
Africa is the next China/India in terms of economic development.
But I think it is a bit too early (no infrastructure yet for digital services)

I am more interested in latin america atm: they have the infrastructure (lots of people use smartphones and internet), and their financial institutions are rigged, their fiats volatile like crazy... etc
It is imho the perfect environment for cryptocurrencies, as it would solve most of their problems (inflation in Venezuela for instance...)

Rightly so, LATAM has tremendous potential. Slvr project mine is in Mexico, and you are right there will be an effect in Venezuela that other LATAM countries will try to seek for safe haven. So geographically and concept I am liking Slvr

Is it possible to combine the best of both world. For traditional stock versus gold argument, some people choose to hold stocks in precious metal companies. So it's the best of both world.

In the crypto world, the equivalent is SLVR, an investment in Silver using tokens.

229  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: best ICO to invest in on: September 10, 2017, 03:11:52 AM
I am sad that SLVR is not on the list. Real physical silver is mined it will be stored in secure vaults by a 3rd party. Token holders will be able to go and retrieve their silver directly from the vault after trading in their tokens. How cool is that?
230  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is megadice.com legit? on: September 09, 2017, 09:32:49 AM
After storing for about six months my gain was very fractional despite betting on the house's side so I would AGAIN say it's not worth the risk.
231  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Waves Vs. Ethereum on: September 09, 2017, 09:23:04 AM
Please enlighten me but if Waves is trying to be the decentralized exchange why are they building a DEX only by themselves? Instead of letting everyone build different DEX powered by Waves blockchain
232  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Help in INVEST on: September 09, 2017, 09:19:33 AM
Usually u can take a look at the blockchain they use to determine the dealer that works. Or for simplicity like some suggested just go to their site and download whichever wallet they suggested.

Btw if you are starting out and open to new tokens , I suggest you take a look at SLVR project, it is solid and backed with real asset - silver.
233  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is megadice.com legit? on: September 09, 2017, 04:12:32 AM
i doubt so. I took out all my chips.

megadice became satoshidice, and we don't know who is running the old megadice.
234  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading sucks, I'll just hold my coins on: September 09, 2017, 04:11:23 AM
Trading requires skills, the more coins you have the harder because you are moving the market too.

And maybe we should just learn a page from Warren Buffett  - trade less read more Smiley

First question would have been answered by reading the white paper, but here for the lazy guys...

Currently Listes or Quoted:
The impak Coin (MPK) does not trade on any exchange or
market.

Thanks for answering memberx, yea I also read that line in the WP, hence I am wondering if we can freely trade it in exchanges in the future, or not.

Hi,

I have a few questions and hopefully someone can enlighten me.

1. Which exchange platform will the coins be traded after the crowdsale conclusion?

2. Impakcoin was first advertised at "impakcoin.com" and later changed to "impak.eco". The former mentioned crowdsale starting in June and the later said it is starting in August. Why did the project moved the dateline and the naming?

237  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Is pegging precious metal to a cryptocurrency a good idea? on: September 08, 2017, 07:30:34 AM
I am looking at Slvr and like their project so far (as apparent from my signature), especially by pegging precious metal to it.

Precious metal == safe haven, preserving value
Crypto = high risk high return

Is combining both getting the best of both world?
238  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How can USDT be pegged to Dollar? on: September 08, 2017, 06:49:34 AM
Their model is to sell USDT and maintain a balance that at least equals as much in USD as they have issued USDT. In reality, there's no requirement for them to maintain a specific ratio and their model is built on trust. There are no third party verifications of their bank balances, even though they say they have audited balances.

They also have no banking relationships with US based banks so if you tried to actually convert USDT and withdrawal, who knows if it would actually work. I like their concept, but they have many challenges because of their banking issues.

So just release more USDT supply to control the price. Do they have a finite tokens supply or unlimited to match federal reserves' printing appetite in quantitative easing?
239  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NEO - The Ethereum of China (Invest before you regret) on: September 08, 2017, 02:24:09 AM
I know I'm blowing against the wind here but I don't believe China has any intention on cracking down a new promising sector and let the West to take a huge lead. I think the opposite will happen here. My thinking here is that in a couple of weeks China will announce regulations about ICOs, that will enable the good projects to do business legally (not in a grey area) and forbid potential scams to raise money.
Neo to $100+ this year.
There will be a lot of people banging their heads for missing the train again Smiley

My thoughts exactly. Why kill the golden goose when it's ur goose?

As with many rules in China, they will try to do a wide ban first and start opening small exceptions and slowly opening up even more.
240  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ANN [MCO] MONACO #1 Cryptocurrency Payments Card on: September 08, 2017, 02:20:00 AM
Can someone tell me where can I store MCO tokens which I can hold my own private keys.

Thanks
Create a wallet on MyEtherWallet. Download and store somewhere safe your keystore. Always know your ethereum address to your created wallet. Always remember your paraphrase. To check your token balance, simply type your Ethereum Address on etherscan.io search bar. Click for Token Transfers for you to see the list of all of your MCO balance.

Oh nice, so we can actually store ERC20 tokens in MyEtherWallet too? Wow, I am so outdated.

Btw, does it also work with Trezor?
