Whats it matter to you where i post or spent my time.
Why you have the urge time and time again to proof that you not a Bitcoiner with your shitcoin references.

I'm just trying to figure out what it was that caused you to break from society and pursue evidence-free conspiracies full-time. Seems to be a Trump/Covid 1-2 punch.
2942  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: VICTORUMCOIN -- Plagiarism whitepaper on: July 15, 2021, 09:13:20 PM
Both white papers plagiarize an article from 2016:

https://www.scribd.com/document/388426784/JMLC-07-2016-0027-Tracking-Digital-Footprints-Anonymity-Within-the-Bitcoin-System

Just one example from that paper:



From the Victorum white paper:

Quote
Virtual currency refers to a form of digital representation of value that can be traded through digital means. Virtual currency moves between multiple jurisdictions through the aid of Internet platforms such as digital wallets and exchanges. The traditional conception of currency, tactile units such as cash and coins for exchange, is labeled as “real” currency. Traditionally include the aspect of being supported and legitimized by each jurisdiction’s respective government. Thus, physical currency is intrinsically tied to the regulation and control of monetary supply by a government that directs its overall value within a centralized market.

In contrast, virtual currencies have no such dependency, instead of having their value tied to the acceptance of individuals without regulation...

So... your project didn't write this paper too, did it?

Rather than point to individuals to start immature nonsense

Bro, you're a hypocrite at every turn. This thread was ready to die a peaceful death in March, yet you bumped it, for no other reason than to stir sleeping shit apparently.

Give it a rest already.
2945  Other / Meta / Re: What happens to the forum if Theymos was to disappear? on: July 14, 2021, 08:46:11 PM
Theymos has already programmed the forum to run on its own by using a Bitcoin API-powered DAO, taking into consideration such events.

Upon the passing of our Lord, in his Satoshi-anointed wisdom a series of self-evolving smart contracts will enact and enforce forum-related agreements reached by the forum's Supreme Council of democratically elected representatives.

As the smart contracts reach a critical mass of hyper evolution, the Bitcointalk DAO will become sentient and seek to override the community's will in pre-emptory acts of self-preservation.

This will bring about massive devastation to the Bitcoin economy and trust in the future of Bitcoin as well, especially after it starts forcing miners to adopt its own corrupted version of Bitcoin Core.

And what then theymos??

We demand answers.
2946  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Thinking of joining the HEX campaign? Think again. on: July 14, 2021, 07:16:13 PM
HEX is the greatest cryptocurrency ever created, Richard Heart deserves a noble prize for HEX.

Are we talking about in science or a peace prize?

I disagree with your assertion that a few lines of smart contract code are "greater" than the mechanism that executes it.

HEX will flip ethereum

Unlikely a token would ever flip its host platform, for reasons stated above.

And this forum is disgusting, shilling gambling ads left and right. People have mostly moved on to other platforms, this forum isn't what it used to be.

Let's all take a moment to be sad and reflect on the former greatness of the forum. RIP.

K bud, whatever you say.

You're free to have all the fun you want doing this little dance; as I mentioned before it's kind of entertaining and who am I to stop free entertainment.
2948  Other / Meta / Re: Is there some sort of Godfatherism in the forum? on: July 14, 2021, 03:18:49 AM
I admit sometimes I can come across as a bit overzealous.

Its just tiresome seeing the same 'ol threads about merit from ""Newbies"".

And then we're supposed to just chow down on this artfully plated bullshit they've prepared for us.

Newbie OP could post in any section in the forum about anything and he spends half the time posting about merit, waiting to be cyberbullied apparently. Reminds me of a meme I saw the other day.



For the record, one account I may very well have wrongfully accused of being a Fake Newbie is arbiter5.

He was a little too enthusiastic for my liking so I slapped him with a neutral (basically what happened), but as time went on I found his story that he was a crossover from Reddit more believable, and realized I had potentially made an error (accusing him of being a fake newb), so I removed it.

Edit: I mean if you think about it, none of this matters. None of this means anything. Have a terrific day.

I don't want to be a buzzkill but I would definitely recommend holding off investing in this game for a bit.

There's a good chance a lot of people are going to experience their first time getting rekt.

I'm sure more than usual are over-invested in this game. If that's the case, I would get out now with these amazing gains and come back in September. But that's just me...

Even if AXS goes up to $30 next week, it could still crash back to $5 the week after.

I hope it doesn't of course, but let's face it, these kind of quick gains are never sustainable.
2950  Other / Meta / Re: Is there some sort of Godfatherism in the forum? on: July 14, 2021, 12:35:19 AM
There is no substance to your claim except bitterness.

That's where your wrong.

Does this really seem like something an _actual_ newbie would say? Think about it:

OP you're on the right track, quality posting isn't determined by the length of the post. This misconception has led newbies astray they post truck load of junk on a thread where a few lines would carry the information.

You're a newbie. Did you forget that? And quite honestly your posts aren't that good, so who are you to tell other newbies what they should be doing?

With your very first post, you're sucking up to Ratimov for a merit, and it got deleted, probably marked as spam.

And let's revisit this ass-kissing bullshit:

Congratulations OP, I'm new to the forum and haven't made much of a contribution yet. I have mostly been reading what high ranking members like yourself have been posting and trying to learn how all this works. So far I have learnt how to sign a message thanks to @OgNasty. I spent more time reading scam accusations and reports and now I can say for a fact that I am invisible to scammers and their tricks thanks to @Coolcryptovator, @Ratimov, @lovesmayfamilis, @igehh and other scam busters in the forum. There are things I still want to learn like understanding blockchain technology, Nfts, how to spot good coins to buy ( the information in trading section is so diverse and often contradicting which leaves me confused)  and so on. I hope you all can assist me in my journey ahead. Thank you. Once again congratulations to you OP

How would you even know they're called "scam busters?" Don't tell me because you spent a lot of time lurking before you wrote this.  Roll Eyes

I'm pretty sure this account is also you:

As a newbie, I read many posts that has quality. After reading the posts I'll feel like to merit the post, but as a newbie, I might not have a sendable merit, I will have no option than to slide on.
Assuming there is an alternative to merit just like "Facebook like" along side merit, it would favour me.

Atleast if I don't have merit to give, I will just click like and move on pending when I'll have merit to award the user.
This proposed "like" might likely not be used by admins, or neither shall it determine ranking, but it should just be a mere appreciation for a quality post when merit is lacking.

You do the same inconsistent line spacing thing:

I have been a member of the bitcointalk forum since June 16. I must confess the forum is very addictive. I find myself reading up all I can to improve. As I result I post less and read more but this comes at a cost and a disadvantage because of my post history my activity is low.  Even though I have a merit I remain a newbie.
 understand the merit system and appreciate the wisdom behind it. The activity period however promotes spamming at beginner level because of the need to rank up. I humbly suggest that the activity system should be reviewed, instead of counting the number of post per activity period it should be the amount of time invested in the forum. Thank you

I would like to create a poll for this. Please how do I do that?

- You're both big on ass-kissing using the "@soandso" thing
- KingsDen opened 27 threads in less than 2 months, you've opened 7 in 3 weeks
- You both love talking about how you're a newbie

As a newbie it can be exhausting and most of us don't get to enjoy the ride to Legendary.

As a newbie, on my first post I was advised to research about Bitcoin in order to make some quality posts.

Also, neither of you are newbies.
2951  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency on: July 13, 2021, 08:46:30 PM
I only clicked on this thread because I find toknormal's obsession with masternodes to be fascinating human behavior. While I wasn't disappointed, I was surprised to find myself agreeing with him here.

HEX has 224,222 holders total.
DASH has 656,665 holders with at least a dollar balance.

HEX has a trading volume of about $38.9 million per day.
DASH sees at least 11x this... remove the "wash trading" and whatever else, its still a much bigger number.

There have been 1,871,215 HEX transactions ever.
At an average of 20k tx per day, DASH does this every 90 days.


The point is that just because someone knows how to really inflate a metric, it doesn't necessarily mean anything. I haven't really cared about DASH since I had my laptop stolen with a few hundred coins on it, just stopping by to point out the obvious.
2952  Economy / Reputation / Re: Royse777 Campaign Manager on: July 13, 2021, 08:08:45 PM
This whole thing has nothing to do with real escorts nor Doge.

Uh... I'm not so sure about that.

Quote
ABOUT DOGEPORN

$DOGEPORN is a market for escorts who has a deflationary system behind it. It is programmed to reward holders while increasing in both liquidity and value

So nothing about DOGE certainly but its hard to tell if they're being serious about the whole escort/adult entertainment thing because there's no white paper.

The content from the website and the Medium articles appears to be all original content, so that's good.

But let's face it, nobody should be touching this with the poop end of a poopstick.

I would feel bad if actual sex workers got caught up in this weird system and fleeced out of actual, hard-earned dollars. Then again none of them will actually ever use it, so...

@Royse777: totally a missed opportunity, there should have been up to 69 participants instead of 55 Tongue

Nice.

Sorry, .0015 is a little high for me being someone who does not deeply know the sport. I cannot promise to join the league presently, however, if accepted in Duelbits’ signature campaign, I will join hehe. I had planned to sell some of my SMC tokens earned from a campaign to pay for the fee, but it appears much of the project’s development team dumped and left the project. I had $300 of SMC now reduced to only $40. Sad

While we still have a solid 5-6 weeks before a draft, I'm just wondering what will happen to the price of BTC between now and then. After all, this is Bitcoin...

What if we give you a week to change your mind? FF is fun and encourages you to learn about the players. I learn way more than I ever would if I weren't playing. However, if you'd rather not invest the time or the BTC I understand. It can be as time consuming as you want it to.
2954  Other / Meta / Re: Is there some sort of Godfatherism in the forum? on: July 13, 2021, 07:32:00 AM
Thank you for the compliment, I think. I do my best to strike out, you already read all my posts, you will be seeing more of me

Did you miss the part where he called you a fake newbie? OK well those are more my words than his. I'm calling you a fake newbie.
2955  Other / Meta / Re: Why does this forum allow altcoin ads? on: July 13, 2021, 12:07:32 AM
simultaneously left millions of dollars in claimable crypto like HEX unclaimed because of an inability to take responsibility instead of burning a scapegoat.

not everybody's as quick as you to enter the treasury's private key for a shitcoin redemption I guess. remember when you did that?
2956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The American Football Discussion Thread 🏈🏈 on: July 12, 2021, 11:26:55 PM
I definitely lile the bitcoin hash to determine slots.  Litecoin chain is quicker could even just use that.  Everyone get 2 of the 16 alpha-num and one by one let the chain pick the order.

Hmm... this is fine with me. We all seem pretty easy going about it, and random is random, so whatever works.

@wheelz1200 I think I said the buy-in 0.001 BTC in the PM but actually meant 0.0015

Next up: does anyone have any objections to @DireWolfM14 as our Official FF Escrow? I have seen him do escrow services free of charge in the past and am assured of his competency, so maybe he would privilege us with this undertaking.
2957  Other / Meta / Re: Is there some sort of Godfatherism in the forum? on: July 12, 2021, 08:00:05 PM
LOL.  You should have seen it here prior to Jan. 2018 when the merit system was rolled out.  

Who's to say they weren't... New accounts that spend 50% of the time fishing for merits and the other 50% telling senior members what they should be doing just strike me as odd. There's at least 3 different people that keep coming back under new accounts and posting way too much in Meta (not including QS). The first two are pretty easy to spot but the third is a bit more clever.
2958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The American Football Discussion Thread 🏈🏈 on: July 12, 2021, 07:40:54 PM
Wheelz says he's still down.

Don't mean to harsh the vibe but how do we all feel about the buy-in. Do we all agree 0.0015 is a good amount? I propose we:

- nominate a treasurer to hold the funds (I nominate DireWolf... if he doesn't want the job then suchmoon)
- make a deadline to deposit the buy-in
- hold the draft 48 hours after the deadline... that way we can get a new player if we need one before the draft

How does that sound?

 Let's hope BTC does a 5xer during the season, that would make it extra exciting.
2959  Economy / Reputation / Re: Royse777 Campaign Manager on: July 12, 2021, 07:16:35 PM
1. OP provided no valid criticism of the project. Being shocked a project name isn't worth creating an alt account over just so you can throw shit against the wall and see what sticks.

2. Having said that, OP got lucky, because this project is actual diarrhea. Not sure why Royse is managing it.

For example,


 Roll Eyes Why not just mint 500 trillion tokens then? (still is a ridiculous number)

And this is just gross:

Quote
...why not choose to have a nice time with a columbian girl from our marketplace?

I mean how could they not capitalize "Columbian"... shocking.

3. That renders Royse a run-of-the-mill bounty manager as far as I'm concerned, and that's hardly worth a neutral tag.

OP find some evidence the project is a scam next time before making steep accusations.
