PoS, masternodes, Privacy, Data... This one is following ALL the trends in crypto at once. I trully wonder if the code can back such claims and make it efficient in achieving goals in all the fields it needs to as well. Hopefully it will, but it's gonna be hard for sure.

I would avoid it. If they have a deal with bitmain they should seek to advertise it in a better way. Their domain might be copyright infringement, but bitmain being a Chinese company might not pursue it. If they are indeed holding legitimate equipment they should do more to gain the trust of bitcoiners.

Ah, that's good to know! This is actually a great service for those interested in commerce and remittance with the UK. Now that this bank has broken the entry barrier to free GBP accounts I hope that more will follow the example they're setting. I'm sure this move of opening a free plan will bring on many more new customers to them!

I'm interested for filecoin but in spite of the sizable ICO it had I'm inclined to believe that it's still prone to failure to a very great extent. I think the project's team has too much of a big burden on their shoulders at the time, and that is to deliver on a project that raised the bar of expectations too high.

BTC keeps being volatile and it is taking other markets down with it. Altcoins, as we know, are heavily influenced by the prices of bitcoin as it's come to be the gateway to crypto for many. This does of course mean that there'd be a good chance for alts to come back up but only if BTC continues doing so. It seems like the bullish rally might be over for now though. You'd never really know how far BTC will be able to rise to so it's actually something to keep in mind if you continue holding.

I am always trading against Bitcoin but I have been using ethereum classic whenever possible to withdraw from exchanges and transfer value due to it having the lowest fees in USD value. Other than that, after SegWit litecoin also has really low fees. LTC, ETC and ETH are all good for those purposes.

Hopefully the lightning network will help in eliminating high BTC fees as well. Other than that SegWit in BTC has also lowered fees very much.

Ethereum block exploers are good in tracking tokens for addresses you own, it's a good way to track your holdings if they are sutuated in the same address. Otherwise, https://cryptocoincharts.info/ is also a good way to look for new exchanges. Go to their market overview page and look for ourself, it is a very complete list of exchanges:

YES! Finally we can have a thread about this. I've warned about such threads more than a year ago but it's only now that we get a sticky about this. Thank you OP and thanks to the mod team for working on allowing such a sticky.

Working miners are out but they're not very effective. NVIDIA cards have a massive advantage over AMD ones and since the coin hasn't been performing well in markets I don't think there'd be anyone to bother with improving public miners at this point.

Truly a great loss for the scientific community. I always had an aversion to markets and economy but as a student this person't life and work made me crave an interest for astrophysics and really, "what's out there". He will be missed. Rest In Peace!

You can, but should you? I don't think buying with crypto adds any extra utility to purchasing a house. Most countries allow great tax breaks for bringing in capital to buy a house anyway so often times property buyers are treated just like locals are. Especially in the UK I don't think that cash would be a problem. Using large sums of BTC for a payment other than just electronic FIAT could be more of a problem other than a utility when it comes to buying a house.

The BitBlender campaign remains open for Legendary members. I think all spots for that rank are free now, and likely to remain such.

Ah, as I expected with the date. I just wanted to be extra sure. Thanks. 

Just to be clear, when is the next period starting? I want to see if it'd be feasible to have the required posts until then.

Hello to everyone,

I've been a member of this community since mid 2013. I'm a freelancer since 2014 and I've primarily been writing about cryptocurrency. I participate in this forum out of personal interest and try to post high quality topics and responses.

Some of my threads are intended to provide utility to users and receive thousands of views. Please review two such threads of mine below:
List of bitcoin debit cards
[HARD FORKS] Updated List of Bitcoin Splits

If I manage to rent my signature at a satisfactory rate it'll be easier for me to go back to updating those threads once more, because such a task is labour-intensive.

If you're interested in renting my signature PM me with an offer.

I have completed the past two week term but I do not intent to be part of this campaign any more. Hopefully Lutpin will take care of payments as always.

Thanks to BitBlender for continuing to support one of the longest running campaigns in bitcointalk and thanks to Lutpin for keeping up with payments! I'm glad to have been part of this campaign.

Buying ICO tokens should only be done with funds you can afford to lose. Once the coin hits the market there at least exists security that there is enough market interest for such. Perhaps it'd be better to invest through the market if you're satisfied with the per token rate and still like the concept it's a good way to enter the market through the enxchange of tokens. Just make sure the price you're buying in with doesn't make the coin have an outlandish market cap.

I don't think that there'd be much point doing this with ethhash. Ethereum would simply hard fork and the daggerhashimoto coins with no active community would simple be destroyed and desisted from exchanges eventually.

Perhaps it'd only make sense keeping a few ASIC units for private use but then it'd be harder to cover the cost of development without blowing up the network difficulty. Perhaps this might have also happened with Monero though. Just look at the massive jump in difficulty starting this year:

If those miner specs are real it could have just been a few ASICs.

I think that if you're after long term profit mining nicehash still has the bst profitability for AMD cards but scouting for profitable coins outside of that ain't easy. ZCash has been consistently profitable for AMD, you could also try eth/decred or whatever daggerhashimoto coin can also be dualmined with decred. The case with those has been that they're also consistently more profitable. Check out the ETH+ section of http://whattomine.com. At least of as long as ETH remains available to mine this could be worth looking at.
