You can say Holding is a Bullshit if your coins that you hold is Bullshit, no future, low potential and no improvement. Think before you Hold a coin/s, and do a lot of research to find a good and high potential coin/s to hold and invest.

Yup, quality over quantity.
242  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you like airdrops? [A poll based on topic 2897311] on: March 09, 2018, 02:35:58 PM
Actually I like AirDrop, but because of the many parties who use AirDrop for fraud, so I'm not interested anymore with AirDrop. I prefer AirDrop which is launched based on ICO results.

The same goes for ICOs - there's a lot of frauds and scams not worth using.
243  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency Will Kill Cash ? Is this True on: March 09, 2018, 02:32:25 PM
It will be impossible to replace completely cash with crypto, even in case of general acceptance.
More likely, you'll have the two systems working in the same time.
Then, who know, somewhere in the futur, when everyone will have a mobile (or a chip under the skin...) then there won't be need of cash anymore.

That's going to take at least a hundred years or so, so I wouldn't worry about.

Unfortunately not gonna happen in our lifie times i think.
244  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How often do you join airdrop? on: March 09, 2018, 02:31:24 PM
Depends on how much time they take and how much bs i have to go through.

If they require ID scans and so on, I'm out. Grin
245  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you miss about crypto? on: March 09, 2018, 02:30:21 PM
I miss when most ICOs and airdrops weren't a scam... Grin
246  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Invest now or wait? on: March 07, 2018, 11:14:14 AM
Now the prices are still a lot out of the red zone. They remain not as low as in January but not as high as at the end of 2017, so now it's a great time to invest. Wink

As good a time as any, especially if you're hodling. Wink
247  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will we see Amazon Coin soon? on: March 07, 2018, 06:28:59 AM
I think this is just a poll, because amazon launched their own encryption currency could face legal problems from all countries, so I think they will try to avoid the happening of this kind of thing.

Why would they face legal problems? I think it's certainly doable, a lot of bureaucratic and legal potential problems and work but still doable. It's amazon we're talking about.
248  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: No more facebook campaigns? on: March 07, 2018, 06:23:12 AM
Think they're more regulated now, but yeah, it's still possible though.
249  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will we see Amazon Coin soon? on: March 07, 2018, 06:21:55 AM
Hopefully not. Grin

I can't see it being anything good or useful, other than a cash grab by amazon.
250  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you optimistic about Ripple? on: March 07, 2018, 06:19:09 AM
Well, I'm not a big fan of Ripple and the idea behind it in general, but I do think it will reach great heights. So, in short: yes.
251  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How interested are people in cryptocurrency in your country? on: March 05, 2018, 10:45:01 AM
Though there's a bit of a crypto scene, not as many people are interested as I'd like to of course. Grin

The more the merrier.
252  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 2018 bigger year for ICOs? on: March 05, 2018, 10:42:43 AM
It's pretty hard to beat the btc record last year but I think it's gonna be a good overall year for the most part.
253  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / What questions would you ask Charlie Lee? on: March 05, 2018, 10:40:59 AM
Title.

I'd be interested to know exactly he sold all his LTC and why he didn't announce that he'd do that beforehand.
254  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: On March 1, the beginning of the bullish trend? on: March 04, 2018, 04:24:05 PM
Today is March 2, but I do not see a strong growth of the crypto market. I think that real growth will begin in the middle of spring. It seems to me that the market will grow very slowly after such a strong drawdown. Most likely we will need several months to return to the prices which we had in December 2017.

Yeah it looks like it's more or less stabilizing now, it will take a long time to reach the $15k+ growth btc suddenly had.
255  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: FACEBOOK BOUNTY CAMPAIGN WILL BE BAN IN THE FUTURE?? on: March 04, 2018, 04:22:47 PM
Today ICO numbers becomes bigger, in connection with that, Bounty Hunters also becomes higher in numbers. Last time I was thinking about the social media bounty campaign which is my friend is joining. He has more than 30 ICOs bounty campaign in his list. He posted 30 or more in a day to met the requirements of an ICO.

Here is my question, is it possible that the facebook account of my friend will be ban in the future? When the facebook developers becomes aware on this activity. Will his activity on facebook will fall as a spam?  Huh





PS: Please! my apology of my English, Im working on it. Smiley

That's a good point, I think they might end up banning it as well, since it's pretty close to ICO advertising. Also, it might as well be considered spam.

[Common terminology when discussing Blockchain] Updated - 2/2/2018
(This post will be updated continuously based on everyone's contributions.) Note: This is the unofficial definition. People learn more about the material to understand more)

Blockchain
Chain-of-block technology, transactions are grouped into 1 block, blocks are joined to the chain following the block mechanism after saving the key hash of the previous block.

Consensus
Consensus algorithm, which is an algorithm that validates a block.

On-chain
Used to refer to tasks performed on Blockchain

Off-chain
Used to indicate tasks not performed on Blockchain

Cross-chain
Techniques for transferring tokens through different blockchain

Mainchain
Used to refer to the main blockchain, in a multiple blockchain group connected to each other.

Sidechain
Used to refer to the blockchain with a smaller ecosystem connected to the mainchain

Proof Of Work (PoW)
The consensus algorithm among the nodes in Blockchain, the consensus based on the effort (hash, hashing power) of the nodes.

Proof of Stake (PoS)
Synchronization algorithms between nodes in Blockchain, stencil-based relational representations of nodes.

Miner
Excavators, used to refer to computers participating in Blockchain, pack and confirm (Block).

Validator
Often, only the nodes involved create, confirm Block in Blockchain. Quite like Miner. This concept is used in Blockchain using the Proof Of Stake consensus algorithm.

Fork
Only splitting a blockchain into two or more branches, when two or more blocks are in the same block. Fork can be created accidentally, occurring when more than one miner digs a new block at the same time (will only exist temporarily), or deliberately, when the community breaks into two or more groups running the version Software incompatible.

Hard fork
It occurs when the consensus rule is loosened (if the old rule is a subset of the new rule), if all the updates update to the new software, then there will be no split, if there is one. The miner still running the old software will split.

Soft fork
Occurs when the consensus rule is tightened (the new rule is the subset of the old rule), if most of the miner update the new software, there will be no split, if only minor update will split.

Nothing at stake
Only happens when there is hard-fork. Because in PoS you do not have much energy to create a block, so you can create blocks at two chains at the same time.

Long range attack
This is because it does not take much effort to create a block so you can create your own chain, and your chain is longer than the main chain.

Thanks for the post, will probably be helpful for the newbies.

It's always frustrating to see threads like "what is a hard fork?" People can't seem to google nowadays.

What's important is that you don't panic sell, just hodl and be patient for your profits.

This happens
258  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think the top 10 coins on coinmarketcap will change during this year? on: March 02, 2018, 10:13:57 AM
since the top 10 changed every year till now i think its going to happen again Smiley

the top 10 maybe but i think more or less the top 3 (maybe top 5 at most) coins are safe and locked in their positions for some time now.
259  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Goodbye Blockchain. Hello Hashgraph. on: March 02, 2018, 09:57:57 AM
Damn just when I thought blockchain was new and the next big thing.

But either way, competition is always good and hashgraph seems interesting enough, so, we'll see with time. Smiley
260  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Invest or bounty? on: March 02, 2018, 09:49:01 AM
Bounties don't really give a lot (for the most part), so, if you have some money you're willing to part with - invest.
