Last week,we saw that after JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon termed bitcoin as a fraud
There are also claims JP Morgan bought many Bitcoins days after that statement.

are we still unaware of bitcoin's true potential
The potential is obvious, but it's far from certain it can ever reach it's full potential.
24943  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments on: September 24, 2017, 05:55:33 PM
This post made by Byteball developer tonych is now 30 pages back. I think this contains the most important news on Byteball this month, so I want to bring it back to the attention of new readers:

Many news today.

1. We have our first cashback merchants:
Premiumize: Premium downloads, cloud torrents, and VPN.  They also accept payments in Bytes.
NODEshare: masternode as a service.  They also accept payments in Bytes and offer merchant match for large orders.
Other partners are at various stages, I'll announce them when launched.
Cashbacks will come from this address https://explorer.byteball.org/#TU3Q44S6H2WXTGQO6BZAGWFKKJCF7Q3W

2. We'll skip the October full moon.  We need more time to allow more merchants to join the cashback program and I want a larger share of the remaining undistributed coins to be used for acquiring new users.  Larger partners have large teams and need more time to make decisions and integrate.  The next distribution (after September 6) will be on the full moon of November (Nov 4, 2017), and the rules are the same as for September: +10% for Byte holders, 0.00625 GB/BTC for Bitcoin holders.

3. My long time partner Steve Safronov has joined our team and will take care of business development.  He was CEO in one of my previous businesses and helped to grow it manyfold and then sell.  His current focus will be helping solid real-world non-crypto projects raise funds through ICOs on Byteball platform, there are a number of projects already being prepared since August (still early stages).  He will be our 4th team member with committed time, he will be paid from the Community Fund, and I fully trust him to bring new business into Byteball.

I don't think it's not allowed, but unless you can show some serious reasons to trust you, you won't succeed.

If you're serious (most Newbies who want money are not, so forgive me my scepticism), this could be interesting for you:

Never mind, reading through your post history, you joined today and now have dreams of hitting it off big striking it rich.

Edit: a typo in combination with the wrong expression...

Thank you so much LoyceV it looks really nice. But it  seems my browser reloaded the page and I don't see  it anymore it's back to the "move the mouse" thing. Is it possible to successfully create my address or I need a new one?
It wouldn't be very safe if you can just re-create your private keys. If that would be possible, Bitcoin wouldn't exist.

Step 3: Reply to this thread with your public key and the prefix for your address. Save the private key somewhere safe. You will need it later when I generated your partial private key.
You'll have to do it again.

It is actually my nickname. Grin
how about this one?
Prefix: 1ToPETo
Did you ninja-edit your previous post? I didn't see that request before.
1ToPETo has the same difficulty as 1ot3pot. I can make one of the two for 0.00075 BTC, in that case you'll get the first one I find. I can also do both if you want Tongue

FYI: 1HoPETo would be 58 times faster than 1ToPETo. It's just the way vanity searches work.
24948  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC analysis for this month! on: September 24, 2017, 04:06:56 PM

I noticed the same pattern on the top of this graph today, and came looking for this thread. It seems too accurate to be random, although I don't usually believe the "I can draw 2 lines on a graph to predict the price".

As far as "the Pivot point" goes: I wouldn't have drawn the lower line. That doesn't mean the upper line will continue on it's way down though.

Quote
After that, I see a rally incoming.
If there's one thing Bitcoin thought me, it is that it can go both ways real fast.

Prefix: 1Ot3pOt
Upper-case O isn't allowed, only lower-case o is. But, case insensitive this is too time consuming for a giveaway.
I can get you prefix 1ot3pot for a 0.0015 BTC fee, and a few days processing time.

Allow me to be curious: what does your username stand for?
24950  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price perspective on: September 24, 2017, 03:48:24 PM
     0-$1000: 8 years
This took closer to 4 years than 8 years.

the adoption is like this and we are still in the "early adopters" stage which is pretty slow. and it will get faster soon and becomes vertical (with it price will be the same) until the mass adoption and then it plateaus.


Based on this graph, one could argue we're all Innovators! Less than 2.5% of the population uses Bitcoin. I have very high hopes for Bitcoin once SegWit is used a lot more, especially when the Lighting Network becomes main stream. As far as I understand it right now LN would mean I can create a "small expenses wallet" on LN, and put the equivalent of $100 in there. I can then use LN to send and receive small amounts (buy 2 coffee, sell one to a colleague). All off this off-chain with near instant confirmations and very low fees. That would allow Bitcoin to go mainstream. Faucets could instantly pay small amounts again too.
Meanwhile, large transactions would remain on-chain. If my LN-wallet gets loaded, I can transfer some to any other wallet again.
So far for my future dreams. Back to this graph: note the S-shape that's common for market penetration. Exponential growth can't be sustained forever, at some point it will have to slow down.

All in all I see a bright future for Bitcoin. But do yourself a favour: don't compare a linear thing (time) with an exponential thing (price) without using a logarithmic scale.

24952  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: $100 of bitcoin in 2010 is worth $75 million today on: September 24, 2017, 01:56:33 PM
For example it is indeed true that:
100$ invested in  2010 would give you back 75 millions now, but
100$ invested in  2013 (december) and you will "only" have 350$ now.
It's very easy to pick the right investment when you're looking back. Therein lies a big risk: people tend to easily assume it will continue, the recent altcoin bubble is a nice example of people jumping on the train because of FOMO (fear of missing out).
Common sense dictates anything that increases 10% per day in value can't last.
24953  Economy / Services / Re: Condition of participating any signer campaign. on: September 24, 2017, 01:22:55 PM
Simply put, try as much as possible to always drop more than 150 character lengthy statements that are constructive and not just jargons
If you can say something in 20 characters, don't post 150! Doing so just lowers the quality of your posts, as it's more work to read through irrelevant information.
An expert's opinion can be as short as a simple "no", and be very relevant to the thread.

To answer your question: if you have to ask, you don't qualify! Any well-managed campaign will reject people who can't figure this out on their own. When I look at rezoan71's post history, he won't be accepted.

Hi good day sir Haroldtee let me also know my current status in applying in a campaign,  if you are a campaign manager will you accept me in your signature campaign?
You got me curious, so I'll bite: Looking at TanyaDegurechaff's post history, I wouldn't choose you if I'd be a campaign manager. In short: many posts are in a local forum, many posts are just a question, in general I consider any post starting with "I think" as a shitpost, and - most importantly - I haven't seen any post that adds value to the thread.

But hey, some campaigns are less picky than others. I know I'm very picky when it comes to post quality.
24954  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [GBYTE] Byteball Speculation on: September 24, 2017, 01:14:19 PM
I am HODLing. This coin has a lot going for it. It just takes some time to settle and grow after a super run up the last year. This is not the end but the beginning.
I'm holding my coins too, it's dropped 80% already, I don't need to cash out the remaining 20%, so I'll hold and see where Tony's road leads.

Apart from the price drop, the trade volume has dropped a lot too. It used to be $10M per day around the airdrop and $1M per day the rest of the month. Now, it's down to $100k daily volume only. I'm not sure what that means in terms of price development, but if I dare to speculate: a relatively small buy or sale order can have a big influence on the price now.

I have many "Not Counted" Posts. Mainly from posting in some altcoin threads. I don't only post to get paid, so I'll keep posting there. It's just a bit more work for you, I hope you're okay with that Tongue


Any thoughts on adding an Avatar? I made this one:


A bit bigger could work too:


Or this:


I'm sure there are graphics experts who can do a much better job than me, so it's just a suggestion to improve the campaign.

Is there another production address identical to this dev address and that somebody get this bytes. I don’t think that this is the case. More probably those two people lost their bytes and nobody get them. If this is the case developers should explain how it is possible that this transaction is verified even if there is no receiver. Who is the owner of this missing byteballs?
It's not worth much, so don't worry about the 60k bytes. In cryptocurrencies, it is always possible to send to an address nobody owns. It's called "burning coins".
I am not familiar with test wallets, so I can't answer you there. What I can do, is send you some real bytes and blackbytes to play around with.

Well even if all the users deposit at once (which is highly unlikely) they simply give to every user the other users bitcoins so they should never ran out of coins... they get 2000 BTC with your example and they need to give out 2000 BTC so they don't even need to use their own supply!
You're missing the one thing that makes ChipMixer unique: the coins you get back are older than the coins you deposit. That means ChipMixer doesn't just use my deposit to pay you, and your deposit to pay me.

Perhaps Tony could have laid some freeze mechanism (airdropped bytes (or big part of it) are frozen for at least 1 year). That might have created enough time for technical and business development.


this is actually a very good idea. It sucks I didn't think of it earlier I would definitely have propagated that idea. All bytes received for free based on BTC holdings should be frozen/timelocked for a year.
It's a terrible idea: if Bytes are frozen, they can't be used. That doesn't only block them from being sold at an exchange, it also blocks them from being used to buy stuff, or send to friends to experience the Byteball wallet.

Quote
Or alternatively, a fixed percentage of the airdrop bytes should be allowed for selling.
A partial freeze might have worked. But it could also just delay dumping the coins. In a way, this is what's happening already: the Bytes under Tony's control are frozen and only released to the public in small batches.
