261  Other / Meta / Re: Cool down time after sending a Merit. on: November 28, 2018, 08:47:41 PM
Just happen to again a few days ago, I merited twice in a matter of a second (it was only 1 merit extra but still).
I know this has been discussed before, but since nothing has changed I just suggest to add a 1 second (or 2) cool down time after sending, just to avoid such mistakes.


Agree, I have made this mistake in the past at least once,wasnt aware that others do it aswell Cheesy
This would be usefull feature.

Hmm, this what I was thinking will happen if the signatures would be deleted up to full member level. Was not thinking that this will happen after the last update .

I guess we have to keep our eyes open on report this kind of behaviour.

Oh dear.... we think it's bad now but it will surely get worse in the teenage years.

made me laugh  Grin

I hope that it will become better from now on forward with the merits and all... but isnt this what every parent is thinking?

Isn't it interesting that those who pontificate that "Money is not everything" usually have money?

Be broke for a few weeks unable to pay your bills, pay rent and afford basic necessities, and then let's see if you'd still hold the same position about money.

Let us be sincere and stop fooling around; MONEY IS SOMETHING! A very huge something!! At least in this present world. Might not be a big deal in another world. But in this world? Save me the sermon.

Without money in this world, rarely does anything get done. In fact, many things suffer needlessly without money. Even the Bible is flat-out frank enough to recognize the fact that money answers all things in the context of this present world. It doesn't say money is "the answer to all things" but it answers all things.

So please, before you sermonize me that money is not everything or that money is no big deal, credit my blockchain address with one thousand units of Bitcoin and forget about it. Then I'd believe you. In fact, I'd sing it along with you...money ain't nothing!

What exactly is the point of this post?
You are saying that money is something not everything , thus contradicting yourself .
Offcourse money is important, the needs of human can be catagorised in pyramid and there are basuc needs which are provided by money and work then all the rest comes.

You could be right but on the other hand it is just so hard to keep some postive view in this absolute panic selling what is going on now. This just shows that there is a very long way ahead of us towards some rational market recovery.
266  Economy / Economics / Re: Block Chain eliminates regulators on: November 26, 2018, 08:44:18 PM
Very narrow view, not all goverments are trashing Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. A lot of goverments are going to make regualtions for this industry becaue they are needed.
And no block chian in general does not elimante regulations.
267  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you feel about market regulation? on: November 23, 2018, 05:48:13 PM
Market regulation is absolutley needed , we all see how the market is manipulated , the sharp ups and downs, this is because there is no fear that these people will get cought.
Also trust in ICO market is almost gone, there is no reason for trust to come back if there is regualtion.
268  Economy / Economics / Re: Warning - The price will drop more on Black Friday! DO NOT Panic. on: November 23, 2018, 05:46:20 PM
I dont thin kthat this is a valid reason why btc price should go down , the crypto market regarding vendors who accept this asset, is too small to have a real impact on the price.
The price is dropping because we are stil in extremely bearsih market.
269  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of the market on: November 23, 2018, 05:44:50 PM
Honestly, I am not optimistic at all, we are still indowntrend and it is hard to see the end of this.
Also there is no reason to belive that there will be mass adoption soon, i think that that several years will pass before we wil see good uptrend.
270  Economy / Economics / Re: Blockchain technology is not a trend on: November 23, 2018, 05:43:17 PM
Most people do not know what block chain is ad thy wont in near future, blockchain istechonolgy which already is being implemented by working bussineses around the globe.
And these people wont know how it works and what it is in future also , it is the same as in programming.
271  Economy / Economics / Re: Cryptocurrency or Stock Market? on: November 23, 2018, 05:40:13 PM
Both are in dwontrend right now, I would not go for stocks right now, no way , they are doing down, showing Lower lows recenlty.
Crypto could be a bteer bet because crypto has been in downtrend already for good 8 months , this means that reversal could be nearer then in case of stocks.
272  Economy / Economics / Re: Recent crash on: November 23, 2018, 05:37:16 PM
If the crypto market isn't the only one then it's not a bad thing since it also means it can recover, the same way other markets can recover. I don't believe the crash has been caused by the BCH fork, otherwise, we would see a crash very trimester.
It's definitely true that crypto isn't the only asset class correcting, but it's somewhat interesting that while crypto is being praised by people to not be correlated with the traditional markets, it actually has been for a while.

At what point we start to use other words to describe the downfall besides " correction" ?
I dont thin kthat this is the correct time to use word " correction" , this is complete crash and panic selling, at the moment we are testing the low of ~4300 in BTC and ETH we are heading towards 100$.
273  Economy / Economics / Re: Recent crash on: November 22, 2018, 03:04:06 PM
My belief is that the crash was induced by market manipulation. Group of people who holds some amount of BTC sells their BTC on coinbase or/and other exchnages to get market in red. In the same time they have leveraged postions on other exchnages with short postions. This is relativly easilt done bceause btc volume is small and therefore they dont ned a lot of money . the rest what happened was panic of the market. Its hard to tell wether it is healthy, it shacked of a lot of investors whihc have lost a ton of money but who will come and take their place..
274  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Transaction Volume Tops PayPal, Creeps Up on Visa on: November 22, 2018, 02:46:06 PM
From what I see, more and more people use bitcoin as a payment tool. Paypal and Credit Card are old-fashioned, it's time we switch to bitcoin.

This is like a very narrow view, cryptos are long way of bring adopted especially in physical stores because current payment options are just more easy to implement than cryptos.
i havent seen any place with crypto POS, I would love to see that.
275  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic crash in 2019! on: November 22, 2018, 02:43:28 PM
Interesting graphic on housing bubble in netherlands.

My belief is that stocks are on their way down and there will be not correction, if that continues, i am going to invest in gold,silver or other commodities.
Crypto is interesting area , because at the moment we are aeeing downtrend even with stocks falling.
276  Economy / Economics / Re: LIFE GOES ON. on: November 22, 2018, 02:34:42 PM
I know someone that already committed suicide because of these collapsing markets.  People's lives are on the line and Roger Ver and Craig Wright have no issue with crashing bitcoin.  I'm sure a lot of these criminal organizations that use cryptos are pissed and are looking to "take care" of the problem.

What are you talking about. What criminal orginasations want to take care of exactly what problem?
I am lost here.
277  Economy / Economics / Re: 2018 the year of correction? on: November 22, 2018, 02:29:27 PM
I think the long bear market is healthy, everyday many people are leaving Crypto, those who search for quick short term profits, as well as people who think 2017 bull run will be repeated. We might see a movement in December, but it will not be huge.

In general i think that short term speculators levaing the market is good thing , this should indicate the end of bear market but the recent huge drop makes me re evaluate the situation just because the share size of the drop.
278  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Highest Trading Volume in the World for Bitcoin on: November 22, 2018, 02:27:38 PM
Guys, just stop with this whole China is the biggest, greatest, bla bla bla
China had just overinflated numbers in shady exchanges like okcoin and huobi and others, in reality, usage and trading is well below European countries.

i am not saying that China is superpower regarding crypto usage , only thing that i know is that China and crypto has been overhyped in media and the news are extremely different on daily basis. I just dont know what exactly is going on there.

I have to note that fake volumes are  not a charesteristic of China exchnage,s it is huge problem in other regions also. Absically it shows the lack of regualtions in these regions because , it is illegal to show fake volume.
279  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Highest Trading Volume in the World for Bitcoin on: November 21, 2018, 11:18:07 AM
I am not sure what is the status of the BTC in China, i am hearing diferent theories on daily basis- crypto is banned and then again unbanned. Therefore i doubt that this number is accurate and represents the real volume in China, also we allk now how big of a problem is washtrading.
280  Economy / Economics / Re: Why most bitcoin users from good economies countries? on: November 21, 2018, 11:15:18 AM
This is how world works, those who have wealth can afford to invest.
This is one of the reasons why wealthy people are becoming more wealthy they can afford to buy stocks and get paid for that,poor cant.
regarding the btc, they just have the funds , technology  and time to research such things.
