It's always sad to read threads like this, i have bad news for you, HashFlare is a scam... if you see the trust pilot they have 1.3 from 5

https://www.trustpilot.com/review/hashflare.io?page=3

And you can see threads on this forum warning another user about the scam:

HASHFLARE SCAM DON'T INVEST  
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3360624.0

Hashflare.io is a confirmed scam now
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2683539.0

So, take this as a $500 lesson and next time be careful about where do you invest your money.

3 years holding... wow, you do it very well mate, if I'm not wrong you buy those bitcoins under $10k, I would say something like $1500 was the cost when you first buy and sell the 5% is a nice amount, for sure you already recover what you invest in and still holding the 95% of your profit. So, congrats you play it really smart.

Now the question is, for how long you will keep holding the other 95%? do you have a nice goal to chase?
2623  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Pancakeswap and other DeFi is under attack! Be careful! on: March 15, 2021, 05:48:30 PM
This is the worst way to manage this disaster. The solution wasn't to post on their social networks to not login, the solution should be to take down the site until they fix the problem. It's totally unresponsible the way they manage this vulnerability because I don't think all the users from that swap follow them in their social networks.

At least they should add a banner with a warning on their site. This way it makes me feel the problem was an internal job. They are not professional with this reaction.
2624  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Vitalik must be able to listen to our complaints. on: March 15, 2021, 05:42:45 PM
I don't think Vitalik cares about tokens at all... I mean, those are smart contracts that cost less than $10, anyone can create a token and for sure Vitalik sees them as shit coins. And if the fee is too high to get profit from the coin, then it was only a waste of time and a waste of resources for all.

If fees and gas represent a problem for ETH then Vitalik will find a solution, but right now we can see how much he cares with a give-a-fuck-o-meter:

2625  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: most amazing picture I have ever seen on: March 15, 2021, 05:36:30 PM
Is a great image, it shows all the mistakes that traders do. And the only way to learn is by our own mistakes, but for me is not the most amazing pic. I like more this kind of pic where you see a crazy wall on the markets.


For me that's the amazing face of trading when you know the price only can move for one side.
2626  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The history of bitcoin ATMs is much longer than I thought! on: March 15, 2021, 05:31:02 PM
Hey Pharmacist, it would be nice if you share with us the way that you search for old thread, as we know the search tool in this forum isn't the best, so, I'm sure you are using another method and it would be nice to know how you do it.

As you say, in the early days we have a lot of ATH's, when BTC hits $10 for the first time, when it hit $100, when it gets up to $1000 and in those moments the early investors feel like there was really multiplying their money. and some wise people keep holding until now.
2627  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do I convince people that Bitcoin isn't a financial pyramid? on: March 15, 2021, 03:08:20 PM
Why would you waste your time trying to convince people? As satoshi says:

“If you don't believe it or don't get it, I don't have the time to try to convince you, sorry.”

If you think about who convinces us to be in this crypto world you will realize that people only have to understand how it works to convince themselves. No one has to be telling us the benefit or why it worth to be part of this movement.
2628  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Knowing when to trade altcoins with btc vs fiat/stablecoins on: March 14, 2021, 10:28:09 PM
You can exchange bitcoin for alts any time you feel the lt will bump, but fiat and stable coins are a nice way to get profit while bitcoin crashes. If you think $60k is the top and after this bitcoin will start going down, then you should move to a stable coin to wait while bitcoin crash, and when you feel ready you can buy again bitcoin, this move will make you end with more bitcoins for the next bump.

Good luck and happy trading!
2629  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: a high school student wanna make scam crypto currency to real crypto currency on: March 14, 2021, 08:30:57 PM
Build your own crypto coin isn't easy, but is possible, you need to have some knowledge about C and Linux... Some users already explain how to create a coin, you can fork the bitcoin code and create a new genesis block, that will make your node start from zero. Here is a decent guide about how to do it.

 Topic: *** Complete Guide on How to Create a New Alt Coin – Update 2019 ***
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5134256.0

You can create a legit coin and not a scam one, just play it smart.
2630  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coins are undervalued right now? on: March 14, 2021, 06:22:19 PM
I feel Clamcoin is the most undervalued coin right now... Once the coin was up to 0.013btc and right now it only cost 0.000009. And that's a really low price if you see what's the total current market supply. In theory, they are only 4 Millions of this coin, so, with 0.04btc you can buy 4000 and have the 0.1% of the network.

This coin is a staking coin, and for every 1000 clamcoins you get 1 daily, that's why i feel it's undervalued.
2631  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why new projects/ coins do not have ANN on bitcointalk ? on: March 14, 2021, 06:17:14 PM
In the past bitcoin talk was the only way to promote a bitcoin-related project. Or at least it was the way with a major impact. But now is different, we can find tons of crypto users on reddit, twitter, facebook, even tiktok has bumped Dogecoin in the past months. So, the forum isn't 'a must', like it used to be in the past to promote a crypto project.

Is nice to have the business with a thread on this forum because is a great way to do customer support. But if something goes wrong with the business they can lose their trust here and that is a high-risk move from any kind of business.
2632  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Need some suggestions regarding Bitcoin on: March 14, 2021, 06:12:13 PM
You should wait mate, the price is already on the moon and it will have to crash at some point because that's what bitcoin does, It always move up or down, but you can be sure it will never be stable, so, if it has been going up the past months, then it will go down soon, is about time, so, be patient and ride the right wave in the right time.

This is just my recommendation, but is your money if you feel now is a good time to buy, do it.
2633  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: who controls the bitcoin price? on: March 14, 2021, 05:15:33 PM
To understand who controls the market price you need to see both faces, the people who have big amounts of Bitcoin and the people who have a big amount of money to invest. They are better known as Whales and Bears, and each time a big holder sell or a big investor buys we see a change in the market.

If someone holding 100BTC comes and sells them all today, that will make the bitcoin price goes down, and if someone like Elon Musk invests $1.5B then the price will go up. That's how the bitcoin price moves.
2634  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where would you sell if you had bought 10 Bitcoin at $100? on: March 14, 2021, 04:10:09 PM
The problem isn't where to sell 10 btc, you can do it in a big exchange but the problem comes when you try to justify the $600,000 in your bank account. Of sure that amount will trigger the alerts in the bank and they will ask you to justify it. If they decide the source was illegal then they can freeze your bank account. So, there is a risk for users if they try it, they must verify all is clear with the taxes and banks before they proceed with the transaction.
2635  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have concluded that all governments together can't stop bitcoin on: March 13, 2021, 08:59:38 PM
Bitcoin runs under a protocol, it means it has his own port to run, and governments could block that port if they want. Another way to try to stop bitcoin would be by making it illegal all around the world and chase the users who spend BTC.

If governments want to stop it they will find a way to do it. But since there is a lot of money involved and important people are involved too, then the govs will not stop bitcoin.
2636  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Brainwallets with wallet addresses as a passphrase on: March 13, 2021, 06:18:05 PM
I don't think it was created by a wallet, for sure someone takes those addresses to a brain wallet software to create new addys, and I think it's a terrible idea to do this because at some point someone will get access to the address by making some king of Bruteforce with brain wallet.

Brain wallets have been a big vulnerability for bitcoin, and it's because people keep creating addresses with a low number of words or using services online that can steal your PK.
2637  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Falling of Ethereum on: March 13, 2021, 06:06:31 PM
We are talking about cryptos, a 3% change isn't a big change or a big drop. In the past I have seen coins losing the 95% of their value, so, don't panic, 3% is nothing.

ETH is close to $2k right now, so the price isn't bad, I would say it still on the moon. And talking about moon bitcoin is today at $60k, that's crazy.
2638  Economy / Services / Re: Looking for talented MEME and GIF creators. on: March 12, 2021, 03:54:51 PM
Be careful with this service guys....

I send my memes and only get this reply:

Hey, could you please send me your works in Google Drive?

I told him:

Quote
Hello, you can download the images from the link I already give you, for future jobs, I can send them with google drive if you want. But I would like to know more about the job, how many memes you want, and how much are you paying for them.

Thanks

After this I never get a reply, so, looks OP only wants to steal ideas. That's why I give the warning to the community. Don't waste your time with this thread.
2639  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Zcash an underestimated cryptocurrency? on: March 12, 2021, 03:47:21 PM
There are more than one crypto coins focused on privacy, zcash is one of them, but is not the most anonymous coin. It has a big competence called Monero.

The problem with this kind of coins is they are used for illicit transactions, they are good for the dark web and for illegal stuff... but the common users prefer to stay away from those kinds of coins because if you use them then you could get tagged as a criminal.
2640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will the Lightning Network challenge VISA someday? on: March 12, 2021, 03:42:09 PM
To answer this question we must understand how LN works and why the transactions are instant.

To make transactions with Lightning Network the business that want to accept LN payments needs to create some kind of 'channel', so, let's say you have a hosting business and you are accepting Lightning Network, then you create a channel with 0.1btc. So, when a client pay to you the service of 0.002btc now your 'channel' will have 0.098 available for LN. Once the channel gets full then it broadcast a transaction in the bitcoin blockchain to confirm all the LN transactions in one real transaction on the blockchain.

Now you can see the problem with replacing VISA. The transactions are instant but the community needs those channels to spend with LN, so, my answer is a big NO. Lightning Network can't replace visa.
