2881  Economy / Economics / Re: Binance's Alleged Crypto Audit Failed, Its Auditor Refused to Vouch For It on: December 13, 2022, 10:19:36 PM
Binance says an audit shows proof of reserves of customer funds. But its auditor will not vouch for the reserves nor the methodology demanded by Binance.
What do you think ?
1) Is Binance manipulating the crypto industry
Yes, everyone involved in the crypto industry is trying to manipulate it. Not all manipulating is nefarious.

2) Is Binance involved in any sort of money laundering
Most likely they have offered platform for it at some point. They will close accounts if asked to, but i have a feeling that they aren't complying as much they should. Lawsuits against them are troubling to say the least.

3) Is BNB being inflated at the cost of investors/traders money
If you mean that they secretly use investors/traders money to pump the price? That doesn't make any sense to me as a tactic. They would just lose solvency

4) What will be the fate of users if Binance in any case will be scrutinized and found to be a culprit

Similar to FTX. But i wouldn't be worried about users only. It would be an extreme event and i would short everything i could in somewhere else. And after that i would leave crypto for years. Because recovery would take a long time.


That article seemed very biased against Binance, sentences like this are just ignorant:

If you have assets 1:1 then you should not need an emergency fund for extreme cases. 
What an earth is that writer even thinking. What does he thinks "extreme" means?

DEXs have so many limitations which make them look inferior to their centralized counterparts. Why would people use something that's slow, has low liquidity, and requires some level of technical knowledge (especially keeping self-custody of your coins)? We can't think about DEXs replacing CEXs if such limitations exist. While developers have been improving DEXs over time, they still have a load road ahead before they become mature for mainstream use.
-cut-
Right, there indeed is the learning curve for unneccearily complicatez tech when it comed to tech but se can Day this for most things in crypto including wallets. Things have been changing for the better. Before metamask it would have been nearly impossible for adoption, and whole metamask has become better, it's still suspicious and unfamiliar to regular people.


DEX has never been a full-fledged replacement for CEX. DEXs risk becoming fully regulated in the future. If we look at Uniswap and their EIP-1153, these fears are not unfounded. Read the post on Twitter at https://twitter.com/adamscochran/status/1602087890686775296. It says that Uniswap may launch some KYC in its next iteration, its fourth. If that happens, it will completely overturn all the usual ideas about DEX.

Dexes will become regulated there's no question about that. That however doesn't need to take away decentralized tech under it.

What guarantees we have btc not going very low like 100$ ??
Can btc go Even like 50$
Becouse everybody knows that Market Will crash hard soon very bearish out look now for btc
If today btc start falling what price is good to buy ?
It can fall to 1000$ or lower why not ? What's stop btc to fall down like 20$-50$ ?

Only way BTC could drop to $100 would be total ban of pow coins and removing them from CEXes completely. I can't say this wouldn't happen but BTC have ton of lobbyists behind it and there's a possibility that free new clean energy comes along before it comes to that. At that point there would be no sane arguments against PoW. BTC won't ever hit the zero as crypto geeks would trade it between themselves even if it wasn't in any market. But big players would be gone and recovery would be near impossible after that.

ETH or fork of bitcoin or other altcoins would have taken it's place and we would have very different athmosphere in crypto. I mean we are talking in the BITCOINtalk forum.
2884  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why The Goverment try to centralize Crypto Be CDBC? on: December 13, 2022, 10:21:20 AM
-cut-
Yes, with CDBC they can track it, how and where you used it which really defeats the purpose of crypto.

Maybe people don't see the irony that with open blockchains everyone can track you. Which is one of the main reasons bigger companies avoid to use it as payment. They need confidential transactions to prevent front running in the markets for example.

However, I think someday will might be force to used CDBC though, specially if this is going to be mandated by our government. I mean I'm seeing it as the only "currency" we can used if we want to transact to government agencies. And if it is treated as regular fiat then I guess there's nothing wrong with it. Of course, we still be very cautious of it's usage as as I have said, they can simply monitor us with their CDBC's.
It wouldn't be that different from the current banking systems regarding of privacy. I mean it will be more cost efficient, faster and as a standard, it can be easier to implement to everything. And it would make some current third party payment systems irrelevant. Monitoring is only one reason for it. They are already monitoring money transactions and privacy or pseudonymity on those is pretty much gone with physical cash money going next.

Let me put it this way:

Why would anyone pay $17k for one full bitcoin when it doesn't even come with an Image attached to it?

People seem to be pretty unaware that they are using same exact points to point out how ridiculous NFTs are that nocoiners are using to ridicule all crytocurrencies. Those are also just marks in ledger, just like NFTs.

This would also show that there is a chance where it we could potentially have none? I mean there needs to be a clearer explanation to what’s going to happen.

Let’s assume all of them are minted, and let’s assume that they keep on burning it, that means since there are no new ones and the old ones are getting burned, that would result with zero left in the long run? That is not really reasonable to expect, sure it will slow down eventually and try to not make it zero, but it could potentially be something unexpected and we shouldn't really be thinking this is just good, this is either very great, or it is too risky if there is none left after all said and done.
Right now they are burning their own tokens and correct me if i am wrong but they are not buying them from the markets and selling. They are burning gambled tokens and their own. There was a time when they burned auctioned tokens by players but i don't thin that's happening anymore.

But how could it go to zero? I know one other token (unu sed leo) where exchange is buying it from the markets and their technical goal is to buy it all and burn it, so they are buying it slowly from the markets and in theory the price should rise when people refuse to set up low sell orders and set them higher and higher.

In theory, eventually the price would just be too high to aquire even full token from the markets because it would be so expensive.

I am kinda hoping that betfury had this approach as well but that would require them to buy it from the open markets with their casino profits and that they would legally commit to this tokenomics model.

I am only speculating what could be coming, and sort of hoping it too.
2888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there any Live Casino In world that Accept Cryptocurrency and pay in crypto? on: December 12, 2022, 08:10:35 PM
I was wondering today that if there are casino that started accepting crypto as payment and if someone wants to payback in crypto, are there any casinos available.
According to me I have not heard anything yet but in future this might happen cause when crypto adoption will come than we might see these Casino bosses to accept crypto and other alts.
What are your thoughts on this?
I am guessing you are talking about physical casinos where you walk in, because there are ton of live dealers in the internet accepting crypto. However i don't see much significant advance of not having fiat money in the middle of it as it's liquid like no other form of payment.
And you are gambling with casino tokens anyway, it's not like you would be gambling directly with crypto on physical casino.

And you can cash in your casino tokens and buy crypto or sell your crypto, and buy those casino tokens with your fiat money. It's not the same, but if physical casino accepted crypto payments they would most likely sell your deposit instantly and convert it to physcal tokens that represent fiat money and that you could cash out in fiat money.

From the view point of casino just the taxation issues of it all would be nightmare addon of extra work. And just to deal with old timers and explain the liability issues / risks of having their own wallets and what crypto should they choose or not to choose if they don't want to lose everything would be a hard job.

In the internet it works with crypto natives, so maybe it will come to casinos some day when people are demanding it and experienced enough.
2889  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who are responsible for the bear run on: December 12, 2022, 07:34:46 PM
Since the invention of Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency market has gone through innumerable bear runs, which have always been attributed to the global economy rather than anyone in particular. I wouldn't argue that the episode involving FXT and Luna is what started the bear run; rather, I'd say that it played a small role and occurred at an unfavorable time when the market was already a little uneasy. The bear season would still be in effect right now if the incident never took place.

The Luna and FXT event taught many investors a valuable lesson about not placing their reliance on cryptocurrencies. Before the market earns investors' faith, time must pass(bear season will take longer before is over)
Well chart i showed tells a different story. On the exact day UST depegged and crashed, the WHOLE crypto marketcap lost 117 billion in a week. And even more in the coming weeks. FTX was nothing compared to that. And speaking of power of one man, when elon denounced BTC and apparently telsa started selling crypto, whole crypto marketcap lost 182 billion in 9 days. Not even war in europe has affected crypto this fast. So i wouldn't say they had a small role.

As far as I have seen in previous events, not a single event is fueling a bear run, but a series of events and their cumulative effect, like what one can opine from the images posted in the OP. So in every such trend, the aftermath is simple : nobody gets blamed and people forget because the bull market hits after a few months or so and they are happy again. Again when the bear market hits, they start their same complaints.

Could you list those other events that affected on crypto at those same weeks i responded to JoyMarsha about?
2890  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I need this now If you can make it on: December 12, 2022, 02:04:25 PM
Yes i need someone to create mobile app.
And in this app you can send and receive and hold and Also staking the Stable coin usd or eur or GBP Stable coin
First need to create coin then the app becouse If there is so many options to use people don't want it people want one app and one coin then everybody will use it
Can Do it ?

Sure, busd has 10+ billion  U.S. Treasury bills on their reserves and what was it again? Maybe 1 billion un USD. I can issue a high marketcap stablecoin if you give half of that for rhe reserves

I will even develope the appi for free on top of that.

But i am guessing that you are short of petty cash since you are asking that in here.

Short answer is no. You are not getting your own stablecoin by asking. You will only get scammed if you get offers for that.

My point is it's inevitable something will have to come, something that will push the market down (like Covid-19 in 2020). This time though it was SBF. Nevertheless, he wil be part of crypto's history moving forward.

Except we went up to ATH right in the middle of covid lockdowns. And i wouldn't brush this off as just another crypto thing.

The whole scene will look very different during next big bull. KYC will not be optional for much longer.

History is bound to repeat itself and this time regulators will come to make sure we don't have to learn from it.

So at least we should know what happened. Because this was very much on the different scale. We are in the spotlight of the world and there's less spectrum for freedom.
2892  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Who are responsible for the bear run on: December 12, 2022, 12:10:06 PM
When people say that FTX was the worst thing that happened to crypto in the long time, maybe we should back up and get some perspective on that. Things were already messed up. As in comparison, total crypto marketcap was thriving during covid and recovered almost instantly to ATH after tesla dumped their crypto. But LUNA was the thing that broke everything. FTX was nothing compared to that.

Do Kwon is still on the run in Serbia of all places, except he denies being on the run. I am guessing he chose Serbia because they don't have an extradition treaty with South Korea, but that seems pointless when he is internationally wanted by Interpol now. So it's a matter of time before he gets caught.

But while running, Do Kwon, Su Zhu (founder of 3 arrow capital) are blaming SBF and even US Federal Prosecutors are investigating SBH for his involvement in the UST crash.

Now i would like to very much like to blame Kwon for UST as he was warned several times about issues with it but he was just too arrogant and annoying to take the threat seriously.  But if SBF had anything to do with this, then not only is he blamed for FTX crash and bear run after that, but he just might be the man behind the WHOLE current crypto downfall.

They all fall under gamblers fallacy because there's just no way to beat the odds when they are set for the casino.

@OP
stablecoins have a number of inherent problems regardless of their actual "solvency".
I personally wouldn't use them regardless of it and in fact I don't Smiley and as much as possible in my small way I always discourage their use Wink
-cut-
Please elaborate on what those other inferent problems are, because solvency is the only thing that comes to mind. Because if stablecoins are solvent they work exactly as they are supposed to work.

Or are you talking about the centralized connection to fiat money and that they must have technically reversable transactions? That's unfortunately unvoidable when you are talking real life assets backed stablecoins and there's no way around it. But aml regulations are going to be very tight for cryptos with permissionless transactions as well.
2895  Economy / Economics / Re: FTX Drama and Global Empact on: December 11, 2022, 11:38:27 PM
If this stat is for real then maybe FTX.US is really safe. Which also means FTX only stole from other countries and the money of celebrities promoting them wasn't really stolen?

SBF is okay to steal money from someone else money outside the US so he isn't going to jail and are free to speak to the public. Nice touch. And because of this, SEC Gensler now wants to have control overseas.
And if FTX.US is going to be fine, what that would mean for FTT token? There actually could be some sort of recovery at some point after people aren't afraid that it will go to zero. But that could take time and i am uncertain if. Although i don't personally think that FTT has enough demand whene its utility is only related to FTX ecosystem.

Everybody will use only this one mostly and i do marketing and influencing people to use it.
Off course big air drops to users
Most Nice If it Will be Stable coin like usd or eur this project Will rock
Can you do it ?
I didn't understand anything about this.

Are you asking that could someone build stable coin and app for you? What app?
Stablecoin is not a normal token anyone can just pull off because they can make a token or a coin. That requires some next level resources.
And why would anyone build you anything for free? Especially when you are not even explaining what you need.

A related topic, I think, is our troubles as adult bitcoiners dealing with parents and relatives who do not understand. Traditionally, parents have trouble granting their children the freedom we crave. There is an interesting interplay between our relationships with our parents and our relationships with our children. I hope to be able to discuss and share our experiences in this legendary forum!
I have a hard time decrypting what your point was. But one of the rasons adults won't give their kids freedom (and guns) is because we are responsible for them, that's what being a parent is; being responsible adult.

Kids brains are not developed enough to make life altering decisions by themselves so obviously we wont give them as much freedom as they would like.

We all know how goverment can't move on from fiat and create it as camouflage crypto called CDBC, they try to make competition because crypto has grow up everyday. And in fact some country was implemented the real crypto, bitcoin as currency and can be as payment.

The government try to centralize crypto and want to control it. So be carefull CDBC is not crypto, but camouflage the new fiat.

You should take CDBC in same way as you take USDT, isn't decentralized either, and no one is even saying it's decentralized or "crypto".
But difference in CDBC would be that people would actually trust it. It wouldn't need to be backed by fiat as it would be fiat.

However there isn't yet a blockchain that would work in a way that would keep regulators happy about issuing CDBC into it. So far every experiment on it has pretty much failed. I could still be years away.
2900  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where do slot game developers get the soundtracks they use? on: December 11, 2022, 07:39:57 PM
I recently played a slot game named "Wanted dead or a wild", on Livecasino.io and I so much liked it because of the great soundtrack the game had. I have asked here if anyone has an idea the origin of the songs used in slot games, there was no definite answer, so I am bringing it up here for general discussion.

 Where do slot game developers get the soundtracks they use in their game development? Are soundtracks made specifically for every game (that will be an extra budget) or do they use selected already existing soundtracks and just pay the creators some royalty for using it?
As a composer who knows composers, they just pick and choose or order a song from someone who composes tunes for work. Whole net is flooded by talented composers looking for work or to sell their songs so you can probably find something cheap. But if you want quality work you have to pay for it.

Royalties depend on various things. If composer is part any copyright society casino automatically has to play royalties, but it's not much as it's per play per listener. Net streaming has turned royalties to crap. In normal radio they were much higher. Then there obviously are fiverr type services that could basically sell the rights of the song with one time paymenr so casinos wouldn't need to pay anything after that. Also it could be that slot machine team has their own composers / audio effect guys that work for the company. That's what they have been doing in gaming and films. They just hire experts to work with them.
