Tera's reaction when she gets back and sees the price:


Don't worry. She will manage to draw some lines on a chart that shows we're actually going down.

You made my day.
I was sick of her posts for the last several months.

We all were.
Depression is a many heads monster - she has a big battle to give!

We just need momentum.
Volume on 1W chart is still the lowest it has been in a while.
After 710-750 the volume will skyrocket

So how many log units below the trendline are we now?

Are we still on track for $1,000,000 in 2017?
You do understand that you suffer from depression, right?

Lol. That might actually be true. It would explain a lot of things.
Paleo diet + crossfit and you are out!  Wink Cool

some one said you are the ripple.

And some people say pigs can fly. Do you believe everything people say?

I am not affiliated with Ripple in any way.

What's your take on the 51% situation with GHash.io. Do you think it will harm us?

No.

Nothing will harm Bitcoin. The short term events may provide better entry prices (like the auction). I just can't make myself worried about the 51%.

It doesn't worry you that one of the core developers just sold half his bitcoin stake because of this issue? 
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/281ftd/why_i_just_sold_50_of_my_bitcoins_ghashio/

It worries me.  I can't quite see what exactly he expects to happen.  Unless GHash.io is run by someone who only cares about destroying bitcoin, it seems very unlikely that they will attack it.  Still, just the fact that they can, means they control the fate of bitcoin, which is extremely bad, to say the least.

I'm not selling yet, but I am convinced that bitcoin's POW scheme is just fundamentally flawed and that ultimately it will not survive.  Bitcoin itself may carry on with a better scheme though.


Ghash.io 51% mining control could only be useful for double spending. That's all.
So don't sell your BTCs because of this FUD.

And don't make transactions people!!!! lololol

I installed the NXT Wallet. Wow! This is interesting. A decentralized asset exchange wallet and more. Gonna be fun to check this out.
Where is there more information on Qora, etc? I'm wet behind the ears here.

Thx in advance,
IAS

Qora asset id is 2950240446121913764

You go to Asset exchange, Add Asset button at the top right corner.

The Qora asset is operated manually by Dzarmush, look him up on Qora thread.

I wonder if the asset exchange has better overall prices than an online exchange. Anyone do any price comparisons?

I am really really shocked and impressed with that wallet. Not super intuitive but a live decentralized exchange right now, just wow.

IAS
https://nxtblocks.info

Soon a wallet there too (a la blockchain.info with encryption client side)..

Utopianfuture made a serious mistake, but I respect him for taking responsibility and stepping down. He did a great deal for NEM. Now is the time when NEM will start moving forward without him, after all that's the beauty of decentralization. I'm sure all will be up and running sooner than haters think. Wink
Can you remind me something more than 'fair' distribution that justified NEM clone in the first place? Because I see no other real reason...

Claiming that we are some good developers and will provide something new is not sufficient anymore IMHO (in cryptos ecosystem).

Of course that can be claimed for SIMcoin where I am invested too but that was mostly an act of support to NxtChg - he knows why...

I hope to both project success anyway.

NEM is no clone(you know that, right?), it is 100% written from scratch by a group of extremely competent devs and I think POI will be a significant piece of deep innovation. Other than innovation, NEM has one of the largest and most diverse and helpful communities. You should remember that NEM has achieved all this before even launching. Alpha is in aprox 12 days so all sceptics will run out of dull arguments when they'll see the work done.
Maybe I have to put you on ignore (as a shill)...
Vaporware
FYI when I was discussing with UF about NXT's distribution issues you were probably not even aware of NXT.

I was one of the first to know that he will launch a new NXT CLONE - I did not invest.
I had a feeling that something does not feel right about UF...

I think a good question to ask might be: if you already had a cryptocurrency with high privacy, would you need to append a sidechain to it that didn't?

Yes.  Soft anonymity (bitcoin) has more uses than hard anonymity (ring signatures).

Cryddit explained why a coin with hard anonymity could likely never become dominant in this thread a week or so ago.  He wrote several brilliant posts starting with this one here:

I bet we will find out really soon...

My bids at half the IPO prices still await yummie yummie  Grin

We did not have an IPO, that was a call to participation.

This is pure semantics though. People paid to get a stake -- same as all other IPOs on BTT. 

I am working on a post which briefly touches upon this matter. As you will see it is not semantics, rather much more than that.
BS to make SEC chase us more difficult - I had warned Utopian about his in the past and he did not listen!
Now maybe he will have to pay the price...

CfB BCNext did not do this amateurish mistake...

We did not have an IPO, that was a call to participation. Beside that I think you'll gonna have to wait an eternity to get them at that price, or better said, no chance.
Don't bet your @$$ !!

There is no "nothing-at-stake" problem. No entity can ever buy 51% of the coins in existance.

The attacker needs 51% of coins the existed at some point in the past.  He can attack the network with 0% of the coins that are currently considered as valid. That's why it's called "nothing at stake": he can attack the network using coins that were already spent!
Are you sure there was a case like this in NXT history? Because if there was not one, as far as I understand N@S is not applicable @NXT..
2300  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: rpietila Altcoin Observer on: June 09, 2014, 09:49:11 AM
So why is this not already happening?

Partly because there are no decentralized PoS coins that are alive.

The developers of PoS coins either sign blocks as valid (e.g., Peercoin) or create new "updates" with checkpoints (e.g., Nxt).  In other words, they solve the history-rewrite problem by acting as a central authority.  

If you know how to kill it why don't you do so?

https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/burden-of-proof

I said that no one had proved that the "nothing-at-stake" problem can be solved--I never said that it was unsolvable (although this is my opinion).  Until it can be proved to be impossible, I must accept that it may be possible (and I do).

Honest questions..

Considering that you wrote "if you know how to kill it," when I never made that claim, and then employed a logical fallacy "why don't you do so?" (burden of proof), I disagree: they weren't really honest questions.

I don't pay much attention to what you write because I don't have the time - so it was an honest question.
It is good that this dialogue is being done and I am not biased in favor of NXT although I was one of the early adopters.

Trust me, I would prefer to be 10000% sure that NXT is indeed robust and I prefer people who bring up possible vulnerabilities rather than shills.

That said I could try and find a good bounty for you if you help find a decentralised solution to N@S...
