2441  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: A True Cryptocurrency must start with the fundamentals on: October 03, 2019, 10:50:47 PM

Leonardo D’ Vinci was once asked, by a patron,
“how do you create such magnificent works out of rocks?”
His answer came immediate and sure,
“I chip away everything that’s not angel”

A true Cryptocurrency must start with the fundamentals...based on principles of the highest order.
What would a true cryptosystem look like if it had everything in it from the beginning?
Then pruned "everything that’s not angel"?
If it had everything from the beginning? Everything that’s not angel? And how is that possible man to consider everything? And also what if we won't forget the fact that we change and something that was acceptable in past, isn't acceptable now and opposite. Centuries ago people were saying: With such young generation, we will ruin but as you see instead of degradation we are developing on higher level (still degrade too for some reasons at some point). Our views and thoughts are changing so if something has everything from the begining as for now, this can turn from everything into void in future because of our thoughts and needs change.
2442  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Rant: I am thinking of Quitting my Interest in Crypto Currency on: October 03, 2019, 09:47:54 PM
At first I thought this post was about getting tired of bitcoin price falls and can't wait for rise but it's a whole different subject of discussion.
Well, OP, everything was amazing, fun and interesting at first, I would call that time era of freebitco because that website introduced me into bitcoins. That time bitcoin wasn't commercial thing like it is now (can't mine at home, a lot of regulations on exchanges, KYC documents everywhere and etc).
That's getting boring but I'm still here because of bitcoin's possibilities, it's just nice payment method and consider this as an investment option too on long term.
If you can, get best it from it and use it for your needs, things get abused as time goes and that's why we have so terrible situation now. Bitcoin was nice when only few people knew it.
2443  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: TOR + Clear net live bitcoin calculator. any feature requests? on: October 03, 2019, 09:12:53 PM
Oh, name is like musician... Bitcoinian... haha, sounds very funny and cool.
Visited website and like it very much, I think it may be something that can take place of preev among others. Template is simple, in dark colors but it still leaves good experience, everything is pretty nice and easy. I especially like the fact that you tried to be original and different and included not only bitcoin/usd/euro but also rates of bitcoin/banana, bitcoin/iphone.
Nice domain, nice website, wish you all the best. Personally I may suggest others your website during bitcoin exchange in future when I'll have a need of it.
2444  Economy / Speculation / Re: 20% price drop 7 months before the May 2020 halving? on: October 03, 2019, 08:02:42 PM
Current 20% price drop isn't even in touch with upcoming halving. To be fair I really don't like current situation and kills some hopes in me and also think does the same in a lot of people too and it affect market price even hardly (I still try to keep btc instead of selling them). But if we remember from past, there was some falls before halving and after that it was stable 600$ for a while which killed also hope in some people of further rise because they were expecting huge and immediate rise after halving but as we see it still happened, wasn't quick but rise was huge, yeah, it started from 600$, become 1000, then 2000 and this growth continued, continued until 20K usd which is a huge achievement. I hope we will repeat that again and even with higher price, let's wait for some months, halving will answer our questions.
2445  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: US Lawmakers want's a National Digital Currency on: October 03, 2019, 07:28:00 PM
They are asking for digital dollar but please tell me if such thing doesn't exist as for now, then what can we call money that's stored on our cards and bank accounts?
But it's another whole different task if they want usd with cryptographic profile which I highly doubt they want or if they follow it, then it will be visually similar of it but in reality far from crypto world. I think it's just a waste of time to have both usd in real life and cryptocurrency usd officially. Better to leave one and it must be last one which I mentioned, limited supply instead of unlimited printing.
2446  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 NO HOUSE EDGE, READ THREAD!🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴㈞ on: October 03, 2019, 06:57:55 PM
I read your thread's first post, love the story to be fair, it shows great and right motive behind this project. But donation in casinos still sounds very funny, donate in casino instead of donate for poor people? Don't take it wrongly but I think there are some issues.
If your plan is to really help gamble addicts, be more informative around this subject too on your website to achieve better results.
Also you need to change UI as soon as possible, it's not really nice, I know you'll do that in some time but you really need some key to make customer visit your website and with bad UI it makes your promotion very hard.
On another hand wish you luck and all the best but I guess you seriously need to consider alternative methods of profit from your website rather than depend on just donation.
2447  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it worth for me in my situation to start btc trading? on: October 03, 2019, 06:32:54 PM
If you plan to be a freelancer, I highly believe you'll use platform of fiver where it's not so easy to gain attention from customers because competition is very high and in most cases people are looking for experienced freelancers and don't like experiments.
But on another hand if you are good web developer graphics designer and etc, you can try Envato's platform, I think it will be 100x more profitable for you than fiverr but also takes much more time and afford.
No one can tell you whether you'll profit from trading or not but just remember this: If you profit that's because someone loses.
2448  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not use Exchange instead of Mixer? on: October 03, 2019, 08:45:35 AM
So, Mixers provide service of shuffling bitcoins or provide addresses loaded with bitcoins along with private keys. In short, they provide service so to create anonymity between sender's and receiver's address so that no one can trace the transaction.
My question is why not use Exchanges? When we deposit funds on exchange, bitcoins get deposited on exchange's cold wallet. But when we withdraw funds, withdraw gets processed from exchange's hot wallet. So in short, it is very easy to do anonymous transfer by depositing funds on exchange and withdrawing to other addresses. Why to pay 1-3% fees on Mixers when it could be done for much less on Exchanges. Exchanges like Binance charge just 0.0005 BTC to process withdrawals.
Haven't you ever thought that exchanges require KYC and every transaction/log/activity that happens from your account is recorded and what's even worse is that it's done by a regulated service provider, something that has common with government.
While mixers require zero KYC, at least this is guaranteed, we can't 100% surely say that they don't keep any log but for example if we remind bitmixer, it was the greatest and biggest mixer ever, top with anonimity and very trustworthy. Also to add, you can use tor link for better anonimity, none mixer will ask you about fund sources and etc, all you do is deposit and get, without problems and traces.
2449  Economy / Economics / Re: How negative interest rates affect Bitcoin on: October 03, 2019, 08:07:59 AM
I don't think negative interest rate will have any negative impact on the bitcoin, since bitcoin is not dependent on such market model to strive. Bitcoin is on a different class. It should rather have a positive impact on the bitcoin, If because excess fund should be allowed to flow to bitcoin market.
Wait wait, in this situation I think we discuss about scenario similar of this: National currency which hugely depends on USD, falls and NatCur/USD exchange rate increases a lot, usd rises for national currency. From this point negativity rises and this affects further situation of national currency in a very negative way, people buy USD cause no one wants your national currency (it falls and isn't something that you can hold on).
So how does same situation can't affect bitcoin? Of course it affects but at the same time there is hope in bitcoin too which sometimes rises. People use lows to buy as much as possible and then have huge hope that it will rise and that happens too cause everyone wants rise instead of further fall. Also halving affects price a lot where mined bitcoins are reduced and in our fiat reality money printing is increased.
2450  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: blockchain.info wallet from 2013 not working on: October 03, 2019, 06:58:48 AM
Seems old topic bumped now but it's must to discuss because you aren't alone OP and blockchain.info really has that issue on some wallets, even on new ones. For example I created some wallets in 2017 on blockchain.info but there was one with problems. At first this one was working as usual but one week later I was unable to login. Password/etc was correct, I was even getting email confirmation and it was stating successful authorization but still I wasn't able to login, there was error from their side.
And I want to repeat again, it happened on wallet that was created in 2017, 5 years later than OP created.
What I did was just hang on it because had no bitcoin. But still I'm looking for reasons, why that happened, their support as always is useless.
2451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's most important to you in a crypto betting platform? on: October 03, 2019, 06:25:35 AM
I wanted to create a thread to get a general idea of what you look for when you're betting with your Crypto's.

I'm a developer myself & building a betting platform right now - I thought where better than here to ask for advice!
In crypto betting platforms I guess you mean sportsbook, yeah?
Just look to sportsbooks (doesn't matter whether it's cryptocurrency based or not) and dig further why they are popular, it's not only because of advertisement unlike Heineken.
People love when they have possibility to bet on a lot of matches, to be available almost every match. Along with it people also like when there are variety options of betting on these matches which includes who will score first, how many corners, tickets and etc.
Also it's another great experience when casino users are able to watch live translation stream through their favourite casino, it also makes them more comfortable to bet on live bets.
Nothing to talk about good support and fast payments, this of course is needed in any way.
2452  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How to find a team for a project? on: October 03, 2019, 05:58:22 AM
Hello,

my question is basically, how to find a team for a project if an idea is already there and a concept written.
Maybe here is someone who has the experience and already a running project and have some tips how to find a good team and start the project.

Thanks in advance for your responses and tips.
Personally I prefer for serious projects it's better to find people in real life (to be able to meet them). Also it depends on where you live cause in small countries/cities it's pretty easy. You may find websites of developers, call them, offer them your proposal and etc.
Also you can use HR websites and ask candidates to send CV where you'll choose the one you like from sent works/projects, introduce them your idea in overall and offer payment (I know that's hard but usually without guaranteed fixed payment, no one is going to follow offered proposal).
2453  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If they can print unlimited fiat, can they just not buy up all the bitcoin? on: October 02, 2019, 07:35:17 PM
I guess when you print a lot of money, value decreases. Please can you clarify how will they be able to buy all the bitcoin? At first remember how much bitcoins satoshi owns, consider that those bitcoins won't be sold.
Also consider the fact that despite the demand and any available money, there is not always supply.
With that logic, USA will be able to buy one small country with even their budget, that's not right thinking man.
2454  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you look for in a gaming platform? - Bojoko Article on: October 02, 2019, 05:47:00 PM
I think no API is needed when you visit website via browser from your smartphone, API is needed for mobile applications (I think that's how it works there).
To be fair it doesn't matter much whether I play from mobile or from computer, mobile is comfortable when I lay in bed and computer is comfortable on another times. Btw for playing slots, poker and etc, of course computer is better experience but for playing dice, just lay and use your smartphone is awesome.
Platform really matters, for example for me website's interface plays a huge role too because when I enter on website, I have to feel comfortable too (Nothing to talk about support and trustworthiness, that's must to have).
2455  Economy / Economics / Re: Rate cuts money printing inflation on: October 02, 2019, 05:10:15 PM
We all ready see this, prices specially Property rent and buy prices are going higher.


Do You think its coused by inflation?  


If so do you think the gold and btc Will be hedge?

I think the assets prices going up in Europe,  USA, Australia Central Banks just started money printing those 3  countries wich i mentioned above


As we Know in canada there is about to start Economic recessions If they dont start rate cuts like USA, EU, AU just did.


Uk Economic situation is 50/50 it can go down.

Do You personally feel that Fiat Currrency losing slowly puraching power?  

I do feel that, but the problem is i cant buy groceries food and daily needs with Bitcoin first i have to Exchange my btc to Fiat, so the Bitcoin and gold is Not really Solution for that problem!!  
If you see countries have loans from each other and number of unpaid loans is huge, in overall world has unpaid loan if you see statistics, it's curious. So this means there is worldwide inflation which of course causes rise in prices. When you took loan from me, I do the same from another country and etc, none of them were paid so we printed money, loan is loan in statistics.
Btw nor bitcoin can fix that issue because of it's price calculation mechanism. We need something with really fixed value and limited supply. This way everything will have same price on very long term. But oh, governments don't want that because they can't make money from it.
2456  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will it be good for bitcoin if it will be regulated by the Goverment's on: October 02, 2019, 03:06:22 PM
As time goes more and more things are regulated, at some point it is good because as we see, most part of population isn't very educated and take bad decisions. In this I mean that for example a lot of people fall in beautiful lies and believe that politicians want to improve their life, feds and etc are doing everything good for people... A lot of people also are ok to work like slaves and don't care to improve their bad situation because for example if some group of people work hard for 200$ and have a protest, there will come another wave of people who will be more than happy to work for 200$ on that position. That sucks, there isn't unite.
Well, why I wrote those is that at some point it's still good governments regulate things because people can't handle that but on another hand there is no need to regulate everything and bitcoin doesn't need any regulation from government. There are some type of people who are looking for freedom and will always achieve this.
2457  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Want to learn trading on: October 02, 2019, 02:05:46 PM
Hello guys! Well, I have known about crypto for a while, but never really gone into trading.
Recently I got an interest in crypto trading but didn't know anything about it. So, If anyone here can guide me from where to start and learn about trading?
Do tell me if there is any course available online, free or paid? Maybe in Udemy?
Would be a real help. Thanks!
What is trading? Buy low - sell high. So what do you have to explore? Best times for it but you always have to remember you profit because someone losses.
For learning trading you don't need any paid course, don't fall into it, believe me just ignore any course that asks you for some bucks (cause almost everyone promises: Wanna be millionaire? It's possible by trading, just buy this course and you'll get it ---- and similar texts).
If I were you, I would take some demo platform where I would be able to trade without money. I would read informations daily because it affects price a lot, you always have to be informed to consider your further steps, also would take some care of charts too. Don't plan to trade daily/weekly/monthly, trade when you think it's time to trade, just catch good moments, not all moments cause everything you need is only good moments.
2458  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Libra Coin bring Down Bitcoin's dominance on: October 02, 2019, 01:41:06 PM
In reality what's the purpose of using bitcoin in most cases? Better privacy while buying things. And Libra? It's project of facebook, a company which doesn't give a shit to our data, we can proudly say that our stories, messages and all data (private ones too) are publicly available for people who pay. And automatically what Libra means? They want to know how we send money through Libra. Of course words behind this coin that comes from creators and facebook is a blatant lie.
So to sum up, Libra can't bring down Bitcoin's dominance, it can't even bring down Ethereum, it's opponent can be Ripple and tether for example.
2459  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The World’s Most-Preferred Cryptocurrency Isn’t Bitcoin on: October 02, 2019, 12:43:00 PM
Before I even click the link...Coinmarketcap data?
Bingo, what else!

Now, before anything stupid gets posted here:

Checking the pairs usdt is traded against by volume and exchanges, the first 10 and 19 out of 20 are USTD/BTC.
So...no BTC...no tether!

Second, just because some shady exchanges inflate their trading numbers this doesn't make tether the "world" most preferred cryptocurrency. When tether will have as many shops accepting only tether as bitcoin does, then it will be.
Till then, it's just another shitty stable coin.

And yeah, a website ranked on the 250000 place in the world by traffic is doing 600 million $ in volume.
Legit!!!

I agree with you 100%, a lot of exchanges fake their trading volumes and I think this isn't a new thing: https://www.coindesk.com/fake-volume-on-crypto-exchanges-isnt-the-half-of-it
Also there is a little talk about tether.
And also again, tether isn't a stablecoin at all. But if we talk about it's popularity, then tell me, are these businessmen sane when they prioritize bitcoin over other cryptocurrencies? If any shop or business accepts cryptocurrency, that's bitcoin at first, also it's possible to pay taxes with bitcoin in Uhio, not with tether, yeah, it's like that.
2460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premium Domain Name is the Best Asset for a Gambling Startup on: October 02, 2019, 11:37:10 AM
I can't agree with you 100% because for example let's take blockchain.info <-- They were biggest in their niche with that domain name too (I know they bought .com now). So .info didn't ruin their success.
On another hand I don't like when you compare sportsbet to fortunejack, because at some point they are very different, sportsbet only aims sportsbooks and fortune jack is more wide in game segments.
Do you know income of each casino? Because I highly doubt FJ is over sportsbet if we consider the fact that sportsbet has become very popular and they signed contract with some great premier league clubs.
