No market cap?
What's the total supply?
What's the circulating supply?

Pointing it out here might be a public way of calling him out but chances are, he might not see this, he might see this and ignore as he is not directly affected reason being he is paid for his management services. Most people blindly jump into different bounties promising huge sum of USD but later turn out to be crumbs. With due diligence know your onions and choose them wisely.

I've been playing them for three decades now.  I love games with research trees, and I've always wanted to build one.  A long multiplayer game (a year or so) following humanity's research.

I looked around for any open source trees, and there are none - each game builds it's own.



I'd be interested if it is a game that I can participate in and keep me out of boredom. When are you planning to release it?
2624  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The good the bad and the ugly -bounty weekly report spammers- on: July 03, 2020, 01:37:05 PM
Most bounty users are only trying to earn a few bucks and not really concerned with contributing to forum-wide discussion. They're only here to make some bucks and afterwards, they're gone. But bitcointalk goes beyond that and that's what majority of them don't know. I have a friend with years old account but he only makes posts in bounty related threads through bounty reports. Did his account grow overtime? No. He got frustrated as recent bounties are either scams or brings little to no returns.

On the flip side, I've seen users who were formally in the bad/ugly category turned out to be good contributors on the forum. I guessed they realized at some point that the forum goes beyond joining bounties and posting weekly reports. In life, if you make money first and only cared about it, it doesn't end up well. Make meaning contributions, learn those skills first, everything else comes after.

You couldn't have said it better. I was like your friend until recently, I started taking the forums seriously and making a few contributions even when I'm flawed I don't relent. I'm ranking up bit by bit. The forum goes beyond just bounties all these.

Some businesses are already embracing the digital technology in aspects of blockchain, Keep them updated with the latest trends,educating them, inviting them to seminars would help.

It will take a significant amount of time before we could achieve that.
2626  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I have a plan of teaching college students in my neighborhood Bitcoin on: July 02, 2020, 07:42:08 PM

Students are always poor.... a lot of us has been there and we know the feeling. This might be one of the topics that you have to touch in more detail, namely : "How to earn bitcoins" .... by this I am not just saying.. getting paid in bitcoin, but rather doing any kind of job to earn fiat cash and then converting that into bitcoins. (Too many people are looking for sites and Ponzi schemes to get rich quick or to get paid with bitcoin)

I will also include all the safe storage methods of bitcoins... because they will work hard to get it, but it can quickly get lost if they store it in the wrong way. (Include the creation of safe offline storage methods like, Paper wallets.  Wink

Taken into consideration. What are the possible sites you think one can exchange some hours of work for Bitcoin as the newbies would love to learn about this too. Everyone wants to be financially free. Lips sealed

Appreciate it, anyone can tell me abit more about Defi?

Decentralized finance—often called DeFi or open finance—refers to the economic paradigm shift enabled by decentralized technologies, particularly blockchain networks. From peer-to-peer payment systems to automated loans to USD-pegged stablecoins, DeFi has emerged as one of the most active sectors in the blockchain space, with a range of use cases for developers, individuals, and institutions.

Big game tonight at The Etihad, City vs Liverpool. It’d be a bit more fun if there was something to play for, I suppose City won’t want to lose to the new Champions in their own back yard & Liverpool are after the 100 points record. It might be a really open game as neither team has anything to lose.

Liverpool know how to tame a stubborn City side. It will be an entertaining football piece tonight. I'm rooting for 2-1 correct score..☺️

I just hope they entertain is well enough.

Providing useful answers and engaging in meaningful topics will definitely walk you through to your desired rank on the forum.
Be consistent as much as you can and be unique.
2630  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: This is SCAMALERT on: July 02, 2020, 01:13:23 PM
This is a nice topic OP. It will be very helpful for newbies falling prey for scam projects and scammers going about as traders.

How is the scam been traced and verified?
2631  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to obtain merit on: July 02, 2020, 10:46:24 AM
Merit is  like likes on social media platforms. Here it is an endorsement for an excellent job done. Focus more on improving the teaching of the blockchain focusing on Bitcoin as your main topics. Merits will definitely come if you are unique enough. My one cent. Cheesy

I'm proud my country is found even with an ATM. It is a remarkable feet to achieve in my opinion. Bitcoin is embracing technology to every stage.. Embarrassed

2633  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / My suggestion on Bitcoin adoption on: July 01, 2020, 07:33:10 PM
I love the fact that the whole world isn't aware of Bitcoin yet. I see Bitcoin as a digital Gold. It is supposed to be scarce to retain its credibility. If Gold was made accessible to everyone, The value would never be as high it has always been. In the case of Bitcoin, before the century goes off a quantum of the world population will be accessing the internet and I'm not sure a lot of people will still be interested in knowing what it is.

2635  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lesson plans about Bitcoin achieved on: July 01, 2020, 10:34:53 AM
General introduction, history and who made it.

What it is used for, used as payment for various services.
If you're still stuck, I can still provide more answers.

Can you expound more on the "payment for various services" part? Because I could guarantee that people would ask you "why do we need to use bitcoin? Why not just use USD/GDP/etc? and bitcoin is volatile etc etc".

Sure, they will definitely ask. I can actually tell them a lot. I'm still gathering more information. If this question was thrown at you as a teacher how would you answer it?
2636  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lesson plans about Bitcoin achieved on: July 01, 2020, 10:31:07 AM
You must explain how the fee work too. Also, explaining what is "scam" such as ponzi, mlm, hyip, etc and how to avoid them. Most newcomer think that they are legit, especially with 'fake' cloud mining (i don't recommend the real one tho).

If some of your student interested, don't forget to tell them to backup their seeds or private key.

I will practically do that in front of everyone of them. And tell them not to make use of the wallets opened for practical purposes as one or two of them could hack into their wallets.
2637  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lesson plans about Bitcoin achieved on: July 01, 2020, 10:29:35 AM
1. General introduction to Bitcoin
2. What it is used for

I'm honestly more curious about how you're going to explain things rather than your "lesson plan", as this part is quite critical. Can you give us a quick explanation on parts 1 and 2 here? How are you going to describe Bitcoin, and what is Bitcoin for according to you?

General introduction, history and who made it.

2638  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Lesson plans about Bitcoin achieved on: July 01, 2020, 10:15:32 AM
So, I made a post about me teaching college students about Bitcoin and it's usage. I asked for  few things that would make up my lesson plans here.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5259038.msg54708539#msg54708539 The positive replies I got was enough for me. So, I came up with these;

1. General introduction to Bitcoin
2. What it is used for
3. Introduction to a forum dedicated for discussion of Bitcoins named Bitcointalk Forum
4. Mining
5. Digital skills
6. Last week would be used for quizzes and setting up Bitcoin accounts and prizes would be won for serious students among them.


Your criticism is a welcome one too. Embarrassed
2639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which altcoin will be your favorite this season? on: July 01, 2020, 06:53:47 AM
I think stellar XLM is my favourite altcoin of all time. Reason it because of its great stability. It doesn't fall below 20% in a whole week chart.  Kiss
2640  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the US economy suddenly recovering? on: July 01, 2020, 06:42:49 AM
In my country, after the government eased the lockdown to an extent where people could go out, markets and businesses could open and some other sectors, it passed a wrong message to our citizens that things are totally back to normal and the economy recovering, but after some weeks now, positive cases of Covid-19 increased and the government are forced again to shut down the states that are affected the most.

Imo it'll be like this for some time, there is prolly no economic recovery in sight at the moment, even in the US. In the long run some countries will recover faster than others, as they have always had a better economy and America is one of those countries, but for now with all the the talk of rising unemployment and recession, they still have a long way to go.

The government has not been coherent with situations surrounding the invisible enemy in the person of Covid-19. Easing the lockdown isn't the solution to the problem entirely.Are there measures put in places by the people and the government to ensure social distancing is maintained to a certain stage? I know we still have a long battle with the Covid-19.

Some economies will recover faster than others it is simple ideology behind strategic planners in the economy sector of the fast rising economies.
