The scams and dust tokens are here since ETH and I still have my "collection" of unwanted tokens. It means nothing and you shouldn't be worried. The increase of tx/s and cheap fees far outweighs this dust tokens. Anyway, this shouldn't be the reason you wary of BSC as Binance is currently under the radar of multiple jurisdiction.
It cant really be called a scam if you havent done something on it which is really not a serious matter since you are fully aware that those coins are shit ones and trying out something in behind.

They wont really be passing up those coins with no reason and just using your own common sense then you could eventually tell on whats happening.
Gas is indeed high and not really worth on making transactions on just selling up those coins if ever one of those did really get some value.

I have tons of shit tokens in my Bsc address which literally tons having millions of coins in amount.

Director and Promoter of BitConnect Pleads Guilty in Global $2 Billion Cryptocurrency Scheme
~

I guess this is the proverbial "Justice has been served", adage. I still remember this one, many members here have issued warnings about it, but still many has fallen for it. And hopefully all the victims can be refunded so that this case can be close for good.

Justice had been served indeed and hope that other bigtime scammers would able to be traced up even though this is just one of the known scams but the rest are untraceable which do involved on multi-million scams
but this one turns out to be that obvious.

Dont expect that there would be some sort of compensations or return of funds for those who get scammed.Yes, im also one of those people who had been keep telling that Bitconnect is ponzi
but people do let themselves dragged off with the hype.

How is it really any different from the loyalty/vip programs other sites offer? It's all the same IMO just in a different way.
These games are NFTs if I am right so that can only mean that what you can probably win there is much more valuable than that of a normal gambling website since they pay in crypto. Plus, it's a much easier way to make money for now because it's NFTs are the hots right now.
Not to break your hype or interest with NFT's but most of them are trash but we cant really just put aside the probabilities of earning more depending if it would really gain some value
way more than on that typical earning you could get when you do that casual gambling.

Anything that do involves enhancement or something that it isnt present on this market would always be a good thing.Time will tell if interest for this one would really be
that effective nor relevant.
3284  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What effect does a growing number of altcoins have on Bitcoin on: September 03, 2021, 07:30:51 PM

So what could be the long term effect of having more altcoins on the market, will they help build or break bitcoin?

Could exchanges play a major role in ensuring shitcoins don't get to see daylight to protect coins that are established to grow?
What I could say is that it doesn't matter how many altcoins will be created as it never affects the market trend of Bitcoin and I know that Bitcoin will go to the moon in no specific time frame. It is not game-changing I think because investors had already known what particular coin they will invest and they surely don't bother themselves to waste their time looking for nonsense projects. Because at the end of the day, they will still choose Bitcoin over the others.
There would be always smart investors and there are some which do only invest neither they've dragged with the hype or been suggested by someone which would really result on why there are people who do really
invest on coins which are obviously trash and ending up on caught up themselves when it dumped forever.

Number of altcoins did sure give somehow some effect but not a major thing to Bitcoin.It could move on its own as long there would be some demand.They do have different markets since people get involved
with this investment does have choices which one of the two or having both.

So i dont see for this to be an issue or wouldnt mind off.

3285  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Twitter seems likely to integrate tipping using Bitcoin. on: September 02, 2021, 11:27:42 PM
It sure seems like they're going to require KYC/AML. And while it sucks for sure, can we really blame them? It's highly like that Twitter allowing non-KYC money sending(even if it's just a front-end UI thing, not necessarily them facilitating the transactions) is just going to get themselves in trouble with the government.

In the end, while again— it sucks, this is still in no doubt positive in my book.
They would surely be cleaning their hands from the start and if its needed to imply KYC then it is something not surprising. Just like what others been saying then this is something not that interesting nor
giving out some positive effect.

In regards with exposure then it would somehow give that awareness specially to those people who havent able to meet or aware about bitcoins existence specially if they do saw that it can
be used in tipping when its already integrated and we know that when curiosity strikes then people would search or dig deeper about it.
3286  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Credit card bans introduced in Ireland. on: September 02, 2021, 10:45:45 PM
People from there can simply use their credit cards to buy cryptocurrencies and deposit them to a bookie that's supported in their country. That's just one way and for sure that gamblers there will find several ways to continue what they've been doing.
At least on their government, they're showing that they care for those people that just kept on using their credit cards in gambling. There's two factor that's being done, stopped them from using their credit cards unwisely and controls them to become addicted.
No one can stop you if you are really into gambling since there's a lot of options that you can choose from if you really want to  gamble, its just that you can't borrow money from the banks using their credit cards directly for your gambling activities, but there's still away. This is a good move from the Ireland government, many credit card holders are irresponsible they are using their cards beyond their control, which makes them drowning in big debts.
There will be a bunch of ways if you're the type of gambler that has no one to stop you. We all knew that whenever somebody is attached to gambling despite government stoppage or ban, they'll surely find a lot of ways to do it. It's a part of disciplinary action from the government and probably they're fed up with those people that have shared their gambling problem with their government and one of the actions that they've chosen to do is to ban the usage of credit cards for their balance credential to the casinos.
Knowing that credit card isnt the only way for you to gamble thats why you could still play if you wanted to and if you are a gambling addict then this wont really be a big problem since you do know on where to deposit
if one of the methods had been blocked.Also, not all people do possess credit cards considering on the requirement which you do need then only a few could really be able handle or possess these type of cards and
would stick into those other ways that theyve been get used to.

Thing here that government does really show up some concern towards their citizens towards gambling addiction.Dont know if Banks are heavily affected but knowing that some of them doesnt able to get
some payments out of those credits then they might be seeing this to be beneficial.
3287  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which currencies are suitable for money laundering? on: September 02, 2021, 09:50:44 PM
Which currencies are suitable for money laundering?

For example, dirty transactions, I don’t want to be known by others about what I bought and how much money I spent, and I can’t track it.

Can you recommend some currencies and exchanges that do not require KYC? At present, I only know that Monero is highly anonymous,
why asking this? are you trying to find out how to use this out of your hands? Money laundering is the biggest enemy of this market in which hinders the mass adoption and i hate that matter .
cryptocurrency is design supposedly to help people generate fast and easy transaction but not criminals and illegal users.
i will never take part of your learning on this .
How about going back with fiat and telling these schemes or transactions are already happening on ages as of this moment or before crypto did exist.I would say that its an inevitable thing where people do really make

out transactions which dont really go on legal or ethical aspect and there's no way on getting rid of it.People would find a way or method on doing that via those anonymous transactions or cant be traced up and since

some coins that do exist on the market does have that kind of quality then it isnt surprising that it would really be mainly used.

Answering the topic then this would be particularly talking about Monero and Zcash which are totally untraceable or anonymous.
3288  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin = 100k by December on: September 02, 2021, 07:27:18 PM
It's very difficult to speculate on the price of Bitcoin, but I'm not surprised if BTC can reach $100k, especially now that BTC is in a positive trend so there's a great chance to reach that target, but I'm not sure it will be achieved this December, because the numbers  That's still a long way from the current price of $49K.

We've reach $60k, so $100k is not impossible.

Basing on the one-year performance of bitcoin, last year as we can see here. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/

The price last Jan. 2020 was around $7k while it ended with a price of $29k by December, so that's x4 increase of the opening price last year.
So let's say the price starts at $29 this year and we multiply it by 4, that would result in over $116k, so $100k is possible.
This should how people think off about the probabilities that it could really happen and not only talking about 60k ath but also into those previous ATH's that we do have experienced

The only thing here is that we shouldnt really set out dates or something like that because it is never been predictable on when the price do raise up neither it would really be going down.

Dont cross out the possibilities because anything could happen. Expect the unexpected because not all the times we do anticipate for a price rise could also be a dump.So better
be wary so that you wont get frustrated.
3289  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Metamask Scam? I think I f@cked up HELP NEEDED on: September 01, 2021, 11:16:57 PM
Hello,
I need immediate assistance, I did a stupid and now someone probably has my private key on Metamask, I created a new account and moved all my assets there. Am I safe or not? I noticed that the second account has a different private key. I literally have no time to explain right now.
You would be fucked up if the seedphrase of that wallet is been exposed since all of the addresses inside of that wallet would really be accesses once they do have the phrase

but if you do only expose the privatekey or the ones you had extracted on metamask for specific address then only those assets inside of that address would really be
only hacked not the entire batches of address inside that metamask.
I was lucky that I wasn't dumb enough to give out my mnemonic phrase. I really don't understand how I fell for such a scam. At least, I instantly moved all my funds and didn't lose a penny. The next day, the administrator of that Discord informed me that there were reports from quite a few people who got scammed, the largest of all was $68k!
Just like on what carlfebz2 was indeed on point and true on where as long you dont give out your phrase then other addresses would be safe.Good for you that you didnt give out the phrase or else all of those assets
will really be wiped out instantly.This do actually proves out that no matter how experienced you are there are still situations on where we do really get confused or there are situations where we know but still
got slipped and skipped which cause for some exposure of our precious keys.Be careful on next time because you wouldnt know on what comes next but at least this is really a lesson learn.
3290  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can we do what China did to gaming with gambling? on: September 01, 2021, 09:50:45 PM
Recently China passed a law that says that there's a break for children for playing videogames, I like this regulation because it helps kids reconnect with physical world and at the same time make them not dependent or addicted to the virtual space. Now here's my question, can we do that to gambling too, it can probably help the people to take a break and cool their heads off when they're on a losing streak or it can also be a time for some reflection as to when did it all go wrong for them to lead to this point.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/08/31/tech/china-ban-video-games-minor-intl-hnk/index.html?espv=1
I disagree completely with the application of this kind of restriction to kids when it comes to gaming and to adults as well when comes to gambling, I know that a lot of people who see something like this like it and they do because they do not like the idea of kids gaming so much, but it is the responsibility of the parents and not the governments to control how much time their kids spend gaming and the same is true for gambling, each person needs to decide responsibly what they do with their time and their money, I know that some people are going to pick the wrong choice but that is the price we need to pay for freedom.
You shouldnt really be that close minded because if you do  really look on general perspective or on bigger picture then whats the thing that they would obtain on stopping kids on playing videogames. None right?

They are showing off at least some concern on what are the cons of playing too much videogames and if their intent is to make or let those children connect with the physical world then it isnt really that bad
motive but rather i do see it to be good instead.

When it comes to gambling restriction then this is an another story because we cant just compare off things that deal with real money and simply those games as past time which doesnt involved one.
3291  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Has crypto cloud mining got market? on: September 01, 2021, 08:45:30 PM

What are those legit cloud mining sites may I ask? I don't know any that still operates.

Since the bitcoin prices are again close to its ATH, how is the cloud mining not profitable now? If they can't make profits now, they will never make profits. Sorry I think you are bullshitting.
I dont think he's bullshitting yet there are still cloud mining companies which do offer these services for those who do intend to cloudmine which i had mentioned earlier post the names.

Profit? It will always basing up on the difficulty because we know the higher it is then the lower of ROI you could able to experience.Its a personal choice if you do consider on
putting up some money on this or would simply hold your coins and wait up for some volatility for your gains.
3292  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Dont get sad over what could have been on: September 01, 2021, 07:32:24 PM
Yea definitely wouldn't get sad from the possibility of me losing all of my assets in one single trade due to the market dumping. I'd be happy even, at least I still have my assets with me. I stopped looking at the positive what-ifs and instead became glad that I avoided the negative what-ifs just so that I could leave the mindset of looking back into the possibilities, which is close to infinite (if not already). It just stresses you out, adding to the stress of thinking of what to do with your daily trade, at least when I traded back then.
If you are a person who tries to hold as much as you can then you finally realize that you haven't lost anything. When I own 1 bitcoin that means I own 1 bitcoin and that's the end of the deal, I do not own 50k I do not own 30k I do not own 100k, I just own 1 bitcoin. Now replicate the same thing for all the altcoins you have as well and the dollar value of your portfolio starts to mean nothing to you.

Eventually anyone who is into crypto as long as I have been, you tend to just get the numbers in bitcoin, like my plan was to never have 50k dollars in bitcoin, that was never the plan, it was always to have 1 bitcoin, that's example of course, my real plan is to have 2.1 bitcoin and 32+ ethereum and 100 bnb one day, if I could have all three then I will be set for life, see I haven't told you what they worth, just the numbers in coin and that's it.
But majority of people are aware that reaching those particular numbers would be indeed impossible or would really be far off for it to happen and thats the reality and this is why basing up your goals or target into your skills
and capability towards dealing the market if you are a trader or investor.

It is just hard for you not to consider those things that you wouldnt mind off or simply ignore USD conversion because people would always be looking for that part.It is really hard to resist when you do know
that you have something on your stash that having that value and once certain circumstances or situations where you do really need to sell early.So its a personal choice and personal control
of yourself.

New token alert: Waves Ducks EGG is now supported!

https://wavesplay.com

https://wavesducks.com

good to see that you are trying your best to keep this site alive. however, i assume, this project is still not gaining much revenue from your end. do you think it is time to develop a new game that would be of interest to gamers? maybe aside from dice and coin flip. don't know if you can accommodate another interesting game as youve seen, nft-related games are now in good position. if not, don't know how long you can keep this site running... just a suggestion here

It's only going to get players from the waves community which is becoming very small. I don't think there are lots of WAVES holders anymore after several disappointments from sasha. Nothing is new from the platform but the price of the token is increasing though.

WavesPlay.com is not listed among the dapps listing too:
https://dappradar.com/rankings/protocol/waves/category/gambling
https://www.stateofthedapps.com/
https://www.dapp.com/
Remembering those days where Waves project become one of the most popular projects on that previous bull run or on the time where those times where altcoins do become trend in the market.

Waves is a good project but they do lack out some updates and this is where interest had been lost.If they had able to retain that then they might able to go in level into those coins which had been
succeeding as of this moment or simply to those coins who are in the same time they were created or introduced.

Most of the time where gamblers do always matter or prefer on using bitcoin in their gambling activities.
3294  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Credit card bans introduced in Ireland. on: August 31, 2021, 10:41:53 PM
That's very strict in my opinion, nevertheless, the government has the total power to control everything so gamblers in Ireland can't do anything about it. But gamblers will be gamblers, this is just one step, but they will always find a way to bet on any sports regardless of this credit card bans. So I don't think they can really curb upon gambling in their country, on the contrary it might get worst as those gamblers will find a way to continue their activity or worse their addiction through loan sharks.

Gamblers will always find a way how to bet on their sports. This is just one way to limit their credit card usage. Maybe, the government is also receiving complaints from these credit card providers so they take action where they have control over with. But I do agree that these regular gamblers, they can go beyond their means if they need to just to gamble.

I doubt that the credit card providers are going to complain to the governments because some holders are not paying or can't pay. It's not a lost for them, banks are big, it won't put a dent on their business, on the contrary it's a win-win for them. The only reason why governments are going this far is that they want to control gamblers, or at least not to get them addicted but I don't think it will work in the long run as gamblers will always go and beyond and find another way to continue playing with cold cash.
Banks do always go for revenue or gains that they could get from their clients but if it turns out that they do suffer losses due to unpaid loans or balances then they would heavily agree with this decision.

For other side of things then they might really oppose but this one would turn out to be beneficial on completely stopping gamblers on making unnecessary spendings which do end up for them not to repay
on what they have used.

Also, if banks would oppose or trying to appeal then is there something that they could do once government do make the voice?
3295  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will $50,000 be the resistant price? on: August 31, 2021, 09:17:06 PM
When bitcoin price was rising, I was thinking it will not rise above $50,000, $50,000 is like the resistant price for now, the price falled back the way I was expecting it to be, but the price of bitcoin has been increasing and decreasing within $47000 and $50000, this makes me to be confused of where the price is going to.

What can you suggest what will be the next bitcoin price, is it going above $50,000 or will draw back. I am having the mind that some people buy bitcoin already, but they have set the take profit at $50,000, this can result to the price of bitcoin not to go more than $50,000. Give me your reasons of your prediction with convincing factors.

That's expected on $50k people will be taking their gains at this certain level of predictions, to provide reasons I guess real time situation will always prevail. I couldn't give the precise value for now, I just go on with what everybody been taking of. Hopefully we will surpass $50k when market fully break the resistance.
Only swing or short traders would really be selling on that point and seeing that price level which does have big sell order which i dont really see this resistance to be break anytime soon but

lets just not put aside the possibilities about sudden breakouts which did happen countlessly on this market.So everything is always on the watch and only to those people who do took

risk will really be getting advantage or profits once the market had really showed some good movement. Resistance level is on +10000 increment which considered to be always on that point.

@stomachgrowls precisely what I have been trying to say about them, they stopped promoting here and people felt that they were losing it. However many people failed to to see that they were promoting in their own forum, and that was turning out to be more profitable for them, and it’s evident cause Bitcointalk is not their primary target for marketing.
The fact that not all the times on where this forum would really be that worth for marketing but rather they do try out to go out and might find to be more effective and efficient to focus on ads.

Trading may indeed become one of the activities in Crypto which is very tempting, giving good daily profits and making a lot of money.
However, this might not happen to all traders.
Because the fact is, in trading, there's a loser and there's a winner and not would be able to win in the same way.
I don't know what is the reason is why people thinking that trading is just easy making money while the truth isn't.  It required different factors to consider and processed to trading if you already will be oriented.

Speaking of youth habit, they don't have this instinct of making money, all they have to do is relying upon their parents and as we can see, they love to always have fun, like entertaining themselves.  But this is not on general trading discussion, there are some newbies too in the trading field.
Majority of people who do have zero knowledge about trading or simply their first time on hearing out this market and make trades would really be having this kind of perception.Yes, trading could really be that beneficial
but this is only for those who do able to sustain themselves on longer runs and this isnt something that could be attained easily if you are just a newbie who had recently come and trade in.

It would take lots of trials and errors before you could really have a good grasp on trading.It doesnt matter if you are young or old because it will always depend on how you do deal with it.

It doesnt really require any age or qualifications or diplomas or something as long you can deal with moving market and profitable with it then thats how it counts.

3300  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or altcoins on: August 30, 2021, 09:46:04 PM
I have been watching this market for a long time.

It seems that in the early part of a bull market, Bitcoin goes up faster than altcoins (ie Bitcoin dominance goes up.)  In the late part of a bull market, Bitcoin still goes up but altcoins go up even better (ie Bitcoin dominance goes down.)

In a bear market, altcoins fall faster than Bitcoin (ie Bitcoin dominance recovers somewhat but has to wait for the next bull market to go really high.)

So, it would seem the correct play is to buy altcoins at this point, and then convert them into Bitcoin (or sell) when you see the bull market ending?

Any thoughts?

[I used to post as BobK71, and am using a new account after some logistical mixup.]
Dominance isnt a solid indication for you to rely on in regards into your investment decisions whether you do go for Bitcoin or altcoins. Also in comes with price correlation then this is something very unpredictable.

Some say that whenever bitcoin price goes up then altcoins go down but the fact that there are indeed times that they do really go into the same manner or neither they do go to the opposite direction into each other.

There are even times where price doesnt really react whenever a certain coin or even bitcoin itself is mooning or rallying but i cant really blame those people on having this kind of mindset
since most of the time they are really been dragged off on whatever bitcoin trend currently it do have.
