2881  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / An altcoin to reward the search for alien inteligence? on: August 19, 2017, 01:32:24 PM
Anyone here ever heard of folding@home? It's a distributed project for people all around the world to initiate protein folding through their home computers. This helps accelerate the fight against rare diseases. Foldingcoin and Curecoin are rewarding users participating.

There's a similar program called SETI. From Wikipedia: Its purpose is to analyze radio signals, searching for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence, and as such is one of many activities undertaken as part of the worldwide SETI effort.

Why isn't there any coin to reward those users? SETI programs went under a massive expansion recently thanks to big donators (2)and need help analyzing data. An altcoin to reward users financially would be a great incentive. What do you think?

If your wallets are well separed one from another, it is since your bitcoins are on block.io, there is no risk, at least from what I understood.

Yes they are, but i heard that its too risky to install electrun cash in the same pc that electrum was installed, and i have only one pc. So even if i delete electrum and all the funds are moved to block.io, there is still a risk using electrun cash to claim my bch?
The cash wallet also has an Android client. Try it and see if it works on your device. It should allow you to.move out coins without any troubles as to how this wallet would affect the other.
2883  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fucking Coins on: August 19, 2017, 03:00:58 AM
so many fucking coins and tokens it's such a mess
It makes me nervous and I just want this stopped
there is very little value but a lot of inflated tokens
stop this





As long as there is demand this is something we will have to get used to. There is wealth accumulated by people holding bitcoin and ethereum and part of this is thrown right back into the ecosystem to altcoins and tokens. Devs just keep pushing them out. Some of them are innovative though so we'll see which ones hold any potential in the long run.

Can som1 recommend me some good alt coin card?
Uquid allows for several cryptocurrencies to be used to facilitate deposits in their platform. Some of those allow for instant deposits whereas bitcoin I think requires six confirmations.

The alternative cryptocurrency that's rocking the highest trading volumes for the day is Bitcoin Cash, coming only second to ethereum in that regard. Its gains through the past 24 hours are well above 20%, as BCH/BTC markets follow up on this big upward spike.

The cryptocurrency boasting some of the greatest gains through the day appears to be AdEx. With gains well above 100% over the past 24 hours, ADX/BTC markets still seem to be rallying.

One of the biggest gainers through today's trading session in cryptocurrency markets was ARK. With gains over 70% and record high volumes, ARK/BTC markets are currently rallying.

2888  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Which jurisdiction is better now? on: August 15, 2017, 10:30:05 AM
Things are very unclear to be honest. It's not like any jurisdiction has banded up to include ICOs in their laws specifically. It's also up to question whether or not any jurisdiction would favor investors or developers but it's all very novel to law makers.
2889  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Wallet? on: August 15, 2017, 10:28:10 AM
You can experiment with the light mode on the official Ethereum Wallet. It's very practical but still experimental, only works properly with 0.8.1 release too. Here's an up to date post on how to easily set it up for a one-click launch in windows:

2890  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Arbitrage script Double your coins fast !! on: August 14, 2017, 11:04:50 AM
Review after testing:
Ok, so what OP has essentially created is a GUI that displays arbitrage opportunities. The spreads close real fast and OP's tool seems good at tracking them, but other than that one'd would probably have to take advantage of bots working with several exchanges to take advantage of the tracked spreads. The couch I was given didn't provide any access to an automated bot for arbitrage, and I don't know if OP's tool could be used for an external one either to draw data.
2891  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-08-11] The Bitcoin Cash Hard Fork Will Show Us Which Coin Is Best on: August 13, 2017, 08:10:43 PM
Economy and miners are already showing us which coin has the largest following, but that's not to say that BCash is completely deal. Speculators are keeping it alive and partly profitable for miners as well. If it weren't for people looking to profit I don't think it'd hold up for so long.
2892  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Arbitrage script Double your coins fast !! on: August 13, 2017, 08:05:57 PM
I would test a vouch copy and provide a honest review ig it were for OP to provide one for free. The claims in OP sound a bit too good to be honest.
2893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbook with bitcoin : Legit or not ? on: August 13, 2017, 07:53:54 PM
The legality is questionable and would depend on where you reside. Stating such earns for tax purposes would be tricky if you'd want to be fully legal but at the same time it's also hard to find registered and licensed bitcoin bookies although they're not blocked by any government. At the time I think that it would be safe to say that no government is too hard on bitcoin services that aren't involved with hard crime since bitcoin is too new.
2894  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: After MultiBit what wallet should I use? on: August 13, 2017, 07:28:44 PM
Electrum cash is also available for android. You can download it from their main website and install it on your phone, should work with most devices. Check here: http://www.electroncash.org/
2895  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the best coin to buy? on: August 13, 2017, 07:16:11 PM
Right now, bitcoin seems to be booming and cashing out from it for an alt could be a hit or miss, while bitcoin could keep rising in price. I'd say that there's no such thing as "best coin", but really it's all just talk. People say that ICOs is where it's at, but while some seek quick profit there, this is also something seeming like a bubble and not too sustainable.
2896  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you see coin good for trading ? on: August 13, 2017, 07:14:03 PM
I'd say that you should hold a well diversified portfolio at all times and not be afraid to put some money in things like XRP and NXT for purposes of diversification. If you're going after profit through trading then reducing risk is an important factor and listening to haters of certain coins here wouldn't be that helpful.
2897  Economy / Exchanges / Re: List of bitcoin debit cards on: August 13, 2017, 07:12:10 PM
Did you guys see the new Centra movie? When it comes to debit/credit cards, from the looks of it they're already quite far in connecting your crypto to paying in actual stores. Didn't see it mentioned in the opening post yet and it's not readily available yet I know, but it looks quite cool. They also seem to have visa/mastercard backing but I can't find anything on that on the net apart from their own website.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i17ju6gCu3w

Thought it was worth mentioning in this thread anway.
There are actually several physical bitcoin debit cards that are available for delivery and can allow for direct spending of BTC to stores. I don't know how the ones supported by ICOs will come about though, it seems to be like some people took advantage of the ICO boom to attract investors over a service that'd need very little in investment and has questionable profitability anyway.
2898  Economy / Lending / Re: Need 0.145BTC for 2 weeks, collateral in LTC and OPT, interest 10% on: August 13, 2017, 07:07:56 PM
Hi everyone

Loan request:
Amount: 0.145BTC

Collateral:
8.49LTC
7920 Opus Tokens (worth 1ETH at Phase1 Crowdsale, -gas costs)

Term:
14 or less days

Interest:
10%

Reason:
Need fiat for emergency, don't want to sell LTC just yet

With bitcoin and altcoins being so volatile I don't think that you'd have much luck with the full BTC amount requested. Also, ICO tokens are too risky to account any value for them. It's a tricky time to get a loan, I think that you'd be better off selling the LTC directly to get some cash in hand.
2899  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Biggest Misconception About Cryptocurrency on: August 13, 2017, 07:06:32 PM
If you know someone working in banking or finance you could ask them and they'd know to tell you that people in those industries thought the same about e-payments as well as e-cash. They refused to believe that such trends could catch on but now they had to adapt to people demands and use of technology. Even if the speculative trend for cryptocurrency "passes" the technology would still be there, able to be utilized.
2900  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What exchange platform do you use? on: August 13, 2017, 07:04:16 PM
Indeed Coibase has very high fees. Gdax is a bit better but IMO people leaving in the Eurozone should show preference to Kraken. They're super fast at honoring EUR sepa withdrawals and it's also very cheap. The Rock Trading are also nice, the withdrawal fee is a bit higher but sometimes prices in there are slightly better so it's better value for money with larger orders. Use Kraken with BitGO wallet for instant deposits.
