Another failed validation by buggy software and this complaint will go unanswered.
Passed validation without any problems, even all keywords are loaded and as I remember it is only for the second time for me.

Same here. It was my 31 validation on one account and 12 on second and i've never had an issue despite epoch 46 when 50% of network failed. It has to be on your site.

Do you want us to try and troubleshoot the problem and find a solution?
Best if we move to some chat, so we can communicate faster. Telegram or discord or something else.

That's the best you can do. Fuding wont help.

@BitCryptex, @malevolent Dzięki. Wszystko jasne. Wpasowuje się to w moje obserwacje (portfel legacy opłata 20zł - uzasadnienie-kilka dużych transakcji przychodzących, max 2-3 wejścia. Portfel segwit - 70zł za transfer uzasadnienie-kilkadziesiąt wypłat z BTT i innych podobnych faucetów, prawdopodobnie z 30 wejść)
I świetny pomysł, by przy niskich opłatach konsolidować wejścia by obniżyć prowizje, gdy na BTC robi się gorąco. Z pewnością uratuje to gruby hajs liczony w setkach, gdy BTC będzie walczył z ATH i trzeba będzie na szybko skorzystać z BTC.

Dzięki za tłumaczenie. Co do poprawności ortograficznej/interpunkcyjnej to ja zawsze przekopiowuję każdy post do https://www.ortograf.pl/sprawdzanie-pisowni-angielskiej . Nie ma nic gorszego niż po wypisaniu listy argumentów za i przeciw w ciekawym temacie otrzymać odpowiedź "kup sobie słownik" od swojego rozmówcy Smiley A błędy się zdarzają każdemu.

A od czego zależy rozmiar transakcji? Ostatnio przelewałem bitcoiny na giełdę i tam, gdzie 1 portfel pokazywał opłatę 70zł (100 sat/byte) (segwit) tam drugi pokazywał 20 zł (100sat/byte)(legacy). Transfer zawierał taką samą ilość BTC i transer miał być przesłany na ten sam adres skąd więc aż tak wielkie różnice w ilości byte?
Albo kolejny przykład. Wysłałem 2 transfery z 1 portfela na drugi (oba adresy bez zmian w obu transakcjach) w odstępie 8-minutowym. Jeden zajął 960 byte a drugi 1400 byte

Today someone in Discord mentioned possible first fairdrop for LBC (LBRY Credits).

Let's wait and see.
Rumours were true. We have new Fairdrop. Not much (1000 LBRY = 34$) but it's the thought that counts, anyway. We have first use case. Its IDENA use case not DNA use case but its just the beginning.

What would you say this compares to something like 2key? It's not exactly an airdrop tool, more like a referral system to help spread something far and wide, but using its mechanism to distribute rewards, it could be used as an airdrop tool that airdrops only to qualified leads.

I've also been looking into alternatives. 2key is not yet mature but the idea seems good enough for airdropping to crypto-oriented users.

Interresting project too.
Comparison:
2key is a tool to track traffic and distribute rewards. I didn't find how 2kay adress bot issue (if it does it at all) so traffic can be fake and rewards might go to few cheaters (correct me if i'm wrong).

Fairdrop.io solve multiple entries by one individual issue. The reason why keybase has to quit its airdrop (https://keybase.io/a/i/r/d/r/o/p/spacedrop2019) - top 1 2019-2020 airdrops. So its for those who want to have good distribution of coins, real people attention.

I am wondering, based on your example, in times of a pandemic such as the one we're going through right now or in times when the economy is severely disrupted, if not with the printing of money out of thin air, is there any way we could possibly maintain liquidity and keep the economy floating?

Yes. They could just let things go. The weakest company would sink good one would continue to work (and profit on reduced competition). Lockdown last 1-3 month (depending on country). If this is enough to destroy company maybe it wasn't strong enough? Maybe it was wrongly managed? Printing is simply taking money from you to those who leave on the edge of bankruptcy to give them extra year (in most cases). I wonder if people would be ok with that knowing that it is similar to taking 5% from your bank account and pure it into corporations.

3007  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin vs. Cash Inflation — A discussion on which is better on: June 20, 2020, 05:03:20 PM
There is really no "better" when it comes to currency, do not be mistaken just like dollars and euros, bitcoin is a currency and there is nothing better about it. In a perfect world there should be no currency, there should be no expense and there should be no costs. Humanity has all the resources it needs for everyone to live a great life without any trouble at all, both in agriculture but in technology as well.

There is enough power in the world to produce enough lambos for every single human who can drive a car, do you know the reason why there isn't one for all? Because, it would require manufacturing to be made by robots that takes "money" to be built, if everyone lived without money those robots would be built on free land and would produce lambo constantly all the time, new brand one every year.

It is not "technically impossible", it is quite possible, that is just one example, but money gives people power, the more money you have the more power you have and people who have that power and money do not want others to have the same, that is the only reason.

This is called communism and never work. Without money and people having irresistible desire to have more and more America would still not be discovered. Most technology we have (from internet to medicine) is made only because of greed. And there is no greed without money.

Thanks for the time to reply to my questions. Added this page to my browser bookmark.. Maybe we may need this service if my employer which to have an email blast with legit crypto people. Thanks

This is one-time offer. Part of first fairdrop that was ment to test things out. After it ends your employer can still contact fairdrop.io but it will be a separete deal.

As the bad fiat money becomes less and less valuable, although individuals will try to spend it as quickly as possible, vendors will be less likely to accept it, and prefer instead to accept the good money - which in this example is bitcoin. We've seen this kind of behavior (although with foreign fiat currencies rather than bitcoin as the "good" money) during times of hyperinflation, such as USD in Zimbabwe in 2007 through 2009.

Yes. This is extreme case that does not last long (1-2 years out of 30 years of gradual devaluation). Everything is better than your currency than - even gold from World of Warcraft (fiat exit for Venezuela when bitcoin was banned).
So my point is that Gresham's law works in shorter and longer term. It does not work only during monetary system reset (1-2 years of hyperinflation and denomination). After that people are back to fiat (bad money) hoping that things will not repeat.
3010  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Insure your Bitcoin with options on: June 20, 2020, 09:47:57 AM
For average crypto trader that is here it is better to simply buy/sell than buy/hedge. Why hedge if you can sell?

If your coins are locked in other investments - For example, you buy BNB to be able to take part in IEOs and in the same time you short BNB on futures (or options) to get rid of currency risk. Other example - you buy btc to use it in yours casino bankroll and to get rid of currency risk you short btc in the same time. In other situations it is mostly better to simply sell rather than using advanced trading techniques that may lead to big losses when used wrong.

3011  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin vs. Cash Inflation — A discussion on which is better on: June 20, 2020, 06:30:30 AM
Well, I think it will be hard for bad money to drive out the good in a well decentralized, safe and fair system if the right principles/rules/law governs both currencies uniformly and fairly

Its based on that - good money(deflationary) rewards you for saving it (your money value grows in time) while bad money (inflationary) rewards you for spending it as fast as possible. That way if you have both you always want to spend bad money first. In the end you are using bad money all the time while good one is stored nowhere safely. Bad money wins in mass adoption. Good one is stored only by few who can afford that.

But i thought that it's not 2017. We are not talking about bitcoin replacing fiat currencies any more. Its bitcoin as digital gold mania now.

Personally I do have 100k emails of bounty hunters and theres a very small percentage of purchase when I offer something..

Yea you have a good point. It's not hard to have such list when some bounty managers puts 1k+ list of their participants with emails in spreadshit (this is outrageous).

But back to the point.

Quote
The 2000 crypto oriented people are investors or bounty hunters?
Early adopters of new technology (proof of person blockchain). Miners. So i guess its like 60% nerds, 20% investors, 20% easy money from mining type of guy (similar to bounty hunter)

What is the assurance we can send a message to 2000 REAL people.

They achived that by using IDENA (first proof of person blockchain). https://medium.com/@idena.network/how-idena-works-4f4d19aabbb1

Quote
The uniqueness of participants is proven by the fact that they must solve and provide the answers for flip-puzzles synchronously. A single person is not able to validate herself multiple times because of the very limited timeframe for the submission of the answers.

The validation status of a participant is not forever. It expires when the next epoch starts. Participants should prolong their validation status for every new epoch.

Not sure if this is a good place for this thread but i would like to share an interesting option with you.

Fairdrop.io is na new project that was build to present aidrops free of bots. They achived that by using IDENA (first proof of person blockchain). https://medium.com/@idena.network/how-idena-works-4f4d19aabbb1

IDENA has 2400 nodes out of which 300 already registered on fairdrop.io (few days after project start, and 2 days after first airdrop announcement. This number will rapidly grow to the limit of 2400 - number of all IDENA nodes currently)

They just started with first airdrop:

Quote
We've observed some of our community members are interested in a $dna fairdrop to understand how things work at http://fairdrop.io

So, we present you the first demo drop at http://fairdrop.io

Calling out all enthusiastic community members to pool in $dna.

Ending a long admission by going to clue:

Quote
Every sponsor(donation amount >=100 $dna) will have a dedicated paragraph in the announcement message that goes to all the registered users.

Please provide the below details, if you are a sponsor, here or in DM Smiley
- name
- a 2 or 3 sentence text
- a link to twitter or any profile of your choice

100 DNA is equal to 9$ at current price.
3015  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Idena is the first Proof-of-Person Blockchain on: June 19, 2020, 05:57:33 AM
The idea is good but I would like to know how the coins are distributed. Who can participate/are eligible for the airdrop?
Can I for example, if I donate 10 coins to get airdropped 20 coins ? I mean, more than I contributed or I am not allowed to participate in the airdrop if I am a donor?

Donation is free. You will get same amount of Airdrop no matter if you donate or not. All you need to do to get airdrop is to log-in with your idena on fairdrop.io.

If you donated 100DNA+ you can:

Official announcment:
Quote
Fairdrop.io team is really happy to announce the first Fair Drop.
 
Before we finalize real drops with external projects, Idena community suggested a demo drop to see how things went, so here it is:
We created a pot and the generous Idena community answered, thanks to all our donators!
 
We count 15 donators and more than 800 DNA so far, feel free to check by yourself:
https://scan.idena.io/address/0xfcd1e6903f74827262269ccaa2df6c4a41cb6062
 
If you are willing to donate some DNA for this cause, just send them to that very same address.
 
How to be eligible?

 
In order to be eligible you just need to sign in with a validated Idena Identity before the drop, 2020-06-21 12:00 UTC
 
Newbie: Weight 1
Validated: Weight 1.2
Human: Weight 1.5
Suspended and Zombie: Weight 1
 
The whole pot will be distributed proportionaly to this grid.
No fees we'll keep for this demo drop: all will be distributed to eligible users.

Lbry Credits airdrop? What have Lbry Credits to do with Idena, is there some partnership going on that I am not aware of? Or is just another airdrop provided by Fairdrop, in which case it should not belong to this thread, imo.

If rumours are true than LBRY will be the first company that uses Fairdrop.io that is build using IDENA as core. It will be IDENA's first confirmed use-case that bring value to the outside world. I think it is worth to say few words about it here.
3016  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Idena is the first Proof-of-Person Blockchain on: June 16, 2020, 03:23:09 PM

Like in martingale the longer its there the longer its a risk.

In martingale, you have same risk with every bet (and this risk is not worth reward). No matter if you just started or just placing millionth bet.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5112216.msg49942103#msg49942103

Id love to see a lot more figures and over varying timescales and really understand these numbers.

They don't need to for nothing, some reason is there. I guess they take profit no matter what but backers take the hits.

Yolodice share its data.


https://yolodice.com/#stats/investor

As we can see in short term we can see dumps (whale wins) but in long term there is only profit. I suggest everyone to not gamble with this investment (because that's what avoiding whales is). Just put your money in and check once a week if there are no scam accusations (exit scam alerts). And whale is only a person. He can win but he can loss too.

Average trader annual return is ~3-5% (some has 20% some -100%)
I highly doubt most professional traders only make 3-5% per year

Average !=(not equal) Professional
Investor != Trader

And who is a professional trader? Someone who works in funds or someone with >x years experience?

And when we are talking about professional traders (or rather investors).

Quote
In 2007, legendary investor Warren Buffett made a $1 million bet against Protégé Partners that hedge funds wouldn’t outperform an S&P index fund, and he won.

Buffett’s choice fund, the Vanguard 500 Index Fund Admiral Shares, returned 7.1 percent compounded annually, while the basket of hedge funds his competitor chose returned an average of only 2.2 percent, the Wall Street Journal reports.

And here we are with ~40% annual ROI. This is huge.

Dragonchain already has proof of identity as one of there many apps, its called Dragonfactor..... Did you see that DRGN has a docuseries airing on the Discovery channel July 4th? https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/discovery-science-to-premier-crypto-funded-tv-series-about...-dragonchain-2020-05-29

Yeaa for now its only ETH token that promise doing something like other 10 000 ethtokens Smiley IDENA is a coin with 2400 uniqe nodes and still 18 times cheaper than DRGN  (1.8 mln $ vs 33 mln $ marketcap). Is there anything else to add?

I am not familiar with Yolodice and hence this question, but did you have to complete KYC before investing?

No

Also is there any other websites available for such investment?

Yes. There are threads with lists of bankroll investments. Gimme 5 min and I'll find it.
