does anybody tried it?

im waiting for my payout since 30 minutes, its not on the blockchain and nobody takes the call

Mistertango is legit but the exchange currently being worked on that's connected to the bank service still seems to be under some changed to improve it.

And the horrible term sheet, essentially they're saying they owe nothing to anyone
who are those people who buy in to it??

That makes me so sad and worried
Really the people that bought late with Ethereum are greedy speculators that are led by the market's bullish mood into such decisions. They're in for the quick profit and don't mind risking getting burned as long as there's high promise for returns because they think that the market can sustain such ridiculous levels forever.

Grey market keys usually don't go for nearly as much as stem prices are, even to their low point. Provided that the origin of those is unknown, one would either spend a couple of bucks more to get em legit directly from steam.
3064  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will have Lightning Network soon? on: July 02, 2017, 07:01:05 PM
well it needs an app to be used and that may take some time to become ready for users and be friendly. you can take a look at litecoin, it already has SegWit and LN is not yet ready for it last time i checked. so your dates may be extended a little.
although like i said before LTC has made things faster for BTC since everything is nearly the same, so maybe the timing becomes faster.

and according to the website https://lightning.network/:
"Capable of millions to billions of transactions per second across the network"
Surely the economic incentive to develop such a solution for bitcoin would be greater but the testing would need to be more extensive too. Lighting network has great capabilities but doesn't sound like something that could be implemented on the near future due to the lack of extensive testing. SegWit could probably help ease things out a bit but overall the congregation largely depends on demand.
3065  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ERC20 Token ICO - never ever on: July 02, 2017, 06:55:47 PM
Well, that was to be expected in my honest opinion. No dev put real effort into an ETH ICO so far, all of the recent ones especially were taking advantage of the bull run Ethereum had. Not many devs are sitting on an abundance of funds but no real plan to move on other than buzzwords.
3066  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mycelium's "crowdsale": basically a donation, not an investment by any means on: July 02, 2017, 06:51:10 PM
The price of bitcoin is something that's been left unclear about this cowdsale. Provided that the luck of the funds received by Mycelium is unknown to some extent it'd be hard to make predictions. Whether or not the funds were converted, the fact that no product has yet been represented and there's been no disclosure of what work might've been put into it (if any) it'd be hard to make out a capitalization, let alone see how devs are allocating funds.

Mycelium's wallet crowdsale by all means has not been anywhere close to being an investment as my predictions were right so far form what it seems.
3067  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bancor: Worst ICO ever? on: July 02, 2017, 04:46:10 PM
Hopefully people will learn not to invest in overhyped icos.
These companies don't need +50million to start.
Not only do they not need it, but also have nowhere to utilize such funding and not even a way to handle funds as forclosure isn't part of the plan for crypto currency.
3068  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why SegWit2X is on developement If it's the same as SegWit? on: July 02, 2017, 04:35:21 PM
It'd be a risk to activate Segwit on a platform that's based on a contentious fork. It'd be possible for the economic majority to see this as an chance to block the 2x part after activation of segwit so perhaps 2x devs are waiting for their fork to be locked in to move forward.
3069  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: is bitpay wallet SegWit ready? on: July 02, 2017, 04:31:07 PM
It'd be better to store coins in a wallet where you can retrieve the private keys. If the one mentioned in OP would allow you to do so then you're safe. In my opinion, this is the best way as it'd only have you relying on yourself to choose.
3070  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What should I buy at low price? on: July 02, 2017, 04:28:09 PM
Not s great time to buy alts imho. The market's could enter a bear market as soon as Bitcoin starts falling even slightly once again which isn't all that great if you're looking to speculate on a price rise.

Former Mycelium Employee Quit After Token Sale Funds Were Used for Vacation
https://coinjournal.net/former-mycelium-employee-quit-token-sale-funds-used-vacation/

Hope it was a nice vacation considering all the btc they took in from the crowdsale.

Most probably was. It doesn,'t seem like the supposed products is anywhere near release even after so long. This meeting was probably nothing more than recreational.
3072  Economy / Exchanges / Re: List of bitcoin debit cards on: June 29, 2017, 10:59:05 PM
My cryptopay card is blocked and exploited limit is lowered to 100$, their support has become very slow recently.
So I need a new card.
Is there any other payment processor that offers altcoin debit card, besides the uquid?
I was thinking maybe to take a payeer card, I can sell my coins via cryptonator and transfer $ there. How are fees on payeer?
If I remember correctly payeer has a high loading fee. Not sure if that continues to be the case but account creation still must be free so feel free to check.
3073  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 30 days ago we had a similar crash. It went back up very quick. on: June 27, 2017, 01:12:35 PM
It's hard to identify this as a short term dip when more and more money is coming out of the crypto economy as a whole. The previous one had several currencies going up but this specific one wasn't followed up by such events as the entire bear market went bearish.
3074  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Site With Accurate Coin Prices on: June 27, 2017, 01:08:48 PM
Exchanges are the only place with real info. Each has their own price and they quote it in real time. The real issue is finding an average which is hard to do accurately. If you could pick up prices from each exchange in real time, that'd IMO be better depending on your needs.
3075  Economy / Exchanges / Re: List of bitcoin debit cards on: June 27, 2017, 06:56:56 AM
I see that the list of payment processors increase, which one of them gives a free plastic card debt (Which does not require verification)?

Paycent.io said that given a free card while they are still in pre launch, maybe they about to start with the project,and this suitability is no longer an option
Free debit card with no verification is kind of an oxymoron. You can get extremely cheap virtual ones but not much in terms of anonimity ones when it comes to plastic cards.
3076  Economy / Exchanges / Re: 2017 Bitcoin Debit Card Reviews on: June 27, 2017, 05:44:33 AM
Besides WireX, what other card services are there currently available to US residents?

Doesn't seem to much info on the Bitcoin Black Card...
Have a look at this thread. It's a more complete list. Nost services offer csrds to the US, with Wirex probably being the least competitive one among all.

3077  Economy / Speculation / Re: How can you know it is the last dip? (Bitcoin) on: June 26, 2017, 11:37:47 PM
It's likely that the rally is over and we won't be seeing any other ATH any time soon. Perhaps speculators are scared of a potential chain split and the fact that Core's UASF is met with resistance is leading many away from Bitcoin.
3078  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: it is ethereum fail not bitcoin and not altcoins on: June 26, 2017, 11:33:59 PM
Ethereum suffers the biggest fal after the recent bubble and altcoins are also fighting a losing batter. It seems as though speculators were waiting for what'd seem a crack in bitcoin's rally to go back into FIAT.
3079  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] Mistertango - Bitcoin friendly European Bank Account + free MasterCard on: June 26, 2017, 11:14:34 AM
Mistertango has a flat 0.005 BTC fee for bitcoin deposits. That's more than 10 EUR based on current prices! Why not add a EUR based fee?
3080  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin forks on 1st August, which fork would my coins end up on? on: June 25, 2017, 12:39:01 PM
Make sure that you're not holding your coins in a wallet that doesn't give you access to private keys. This is especially important if you're looking to prepare for scenarios like the ones mentioned in OP. While unlikely, it'd be possible for services where you're holding coins at to not give you access to certain token created after a chain split.
