3321  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Prices and Transaction Volumes After Difficulty Change on: July 03, 2021, 06:04:50 AM
I don't know and as I said months ago, difficulty adjustment has lag effects (if there are) on price movements.
  • Newest update on difficulty adjustment
  • Price spread is the difference between highest and lowest daily price
  • Lag effects: Possibly, significant increase of difficulty (relates to hashrate) results in price topping days later. Horrific drop of difficulty causes price dumping days later
  • It's neither financial advice nor prediction
3322  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: The history of Bitcoin difficulty adjustment (in percent) on: July 03, 2021, 05:26:42 AM
Update

  • Current difficulty: 19932791027263
  • According to diff.cryptothis.com, the next difficulty adjustment would be -28%. If the difficulty adjusts like the estimation, it would be the biggest negative adjustment in history.

  • The biggest (-) adjustment happens 10 years ago, on 31 Oct 2011: -18%
  • In 2020 and 2021, there are a few big negative adjustments from -12% to -16%, two in 2020 and two in 2021 (see details below)

Code:
      +------------------------+
        |      date   diff_pcneg |
        |------------------------|
     1. | 31oct2011       -18.03 |
     2. | 03nov2020       -16.05 |
     3. | 30may2021       -15.97 |
     4. | 26mar2020       -15.95 |

     7. | 01may2021       -12.61 |
     8. | 26dec2012       -11.59 |

To make stats more visual friendly, I make two bar charts for you.

I wrote the topic when I was just ranked up to Senior Member. My feeling and experience described in OP can be fitted with Full members who are in-progress to Sr. Member rank.

It is my story and matches with your rank, your current difficulties. So spend some time to read it.  Wink

I think I have found the key to the picture not showing, I did not use BBcode.
This information is really helpful to me, thank you again.
You are welcome.

In fact, I don't think it is necessary to use images just to present your tutorials in this case because of some reasons
  • Images require more bandwidth to load them, and it brings trouble to people who have low bandwidth to use.
  • Sometimes you have to resize images (with website, apps, etc.) or adjust their width/ height. It is a waste of time.
  • If you need to edit anything, you have to make a screenshot, resize and upload it again. It is another waste of time.
  • My advice: present it directly with code block
bitcointalk Bold the middle font      

As same as above, I can use as same as how @xtraelv made that tutorial Instructions on how to use BBCode
Code:

No offense, just my sincere advice.
3325  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How ethereum gas fee work?? on: July 02, 2021, 04:49:21 PM
I am confused because I not get the reason that why ethereum fee become high and high automatically and become low and low automatically without any reason and especially ethereum gas fee become too high in claiming of any ido token .
It is not automatically high or low. Nothing is automated like that.  Smiley

Quote
What the reason behind it what kind of mechanism behind it which control ethereum gas fee.
There are reasons such as DeFi and DEXs, high demand on Ethereum and so on.

There are some tips to make plans and broadcast your transactions with as cheapest transaction fees as possible.

Above are general stats for gas price. Please use Gas Now to know calendar days and hours intra-day that usually give discounting gas price

Customize the filter (Rapid, Fast) and scroll the gas price (at bottom) left to right and vice versa..

I have written at the very first of the article that your wallet has to be connected to the internet to stake EMC. Isn't it enough?
When you unlock your wallet, it still connect to the Internet and nodes in order to sync your wallet.

You can check active connections at the top of wallet as well as network traffic. Double click on the network icon to get it.

I have written a simple guideline for staking eloncoin for the beginners who are new to PoS and have no idea how it works. This is a very simple guideline. I will write some more guidelines in the future if I get enough appreciation  Grin from the community.
https://link.medium.com/wx01XMp7yhb
It is your contribution but I think such things should be done officially by the team. Especially if it is written by Eloncoin account like that.

Community can make contribution but with personal accounts. You are fast to register that account. Congratulations!  Tongue

You missed a point
  • Staking requires wallet to be opened.
  • It means if wallet is encrypted with passphrase, you will need to type a passphrase to unlock it

3329  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC reward per block - supply is not actually limited? on: July 01, 2021, 04:03:25 PM
it is better to say that reward-per-block will fall below 1 satoshi after 2140, what do you mean?
Theoretically, satoshi is the smallest unit of Bitcoin and I guess the block reward will be 1 satoshi minimally.
Total supply of Bitcoin is less than 21 M that is a rounded number.
Exactly it is capped at 20,999,999.9769 BTC

From 2136 to 2140, there will be 0.0021 BTC added to total supply. I am not kidding. It means current weekly payment rate of signature campaign will be about what miners will get within four years (2136 to 2140).  Grin

Code:
(20999999.9769-20999999.9748)/(6930000-6720000)
Lots of zero for block rewards within that 4-years period ~ 0.00000001 BTC per block.

This is the practice of all our bounty hunters. They don't give a damn if they support the fraud, if they were paid a penny, and the hunters were able to get theirs, what will happen next is no longer interesting.
Exactly about bounty hunters but my post is for traders or speculators as well.

If such people have extra money, do not want to listen to the advice of more experienced people, do not study on their own, how can we help them?
Once they have lost something, they will begin to think. So don't worry about them. Sooner or later, everyone gets their lessons
Those people don't want to read, listen to advice that gives them knowledge, lessons about losses, etc. They only care about profit and skip all advice, risk. They mostly want to have pump signals.  Undecided

The game will be like this
  • Begin with small capital
  • Being lazy, win big
  • Use big capital (initial + big profit) to gamble again
  • At the ends, they will lose all capital after only one failed decision or a streak of few decisions.
  • Most of them can not learn anything from it, and will repeat they cycle again

Even scam projects can be good ones if you know what you are doing, participating at a right time, and take profit as expected or as planned. Scam projects are undeniably scam projects but it does not mean 100% of people who participate in would have losses.

In a single project, there are winners and losers as same as on wider market, the crypto market. Newbies who invest in cryptocurrency in March, now can call it as a scam market but who invested in March 2020 and took profit in early 2021 would call it as a good or perfect market.

Scam or good projects, they can be different in brand names, marketing strategy, borrowing technology but they have common price actions. If you are good at price actions and market psychology, you can find good entries and make wise exit decisions.
3332  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My Bitcoin Questionnaire on: June 30, 2021, 03:23:39 PM
The questions were open ended questions, sometimes presented orally as an interview.
There are few types of question in questionnaires
  • Open-ended
  • Fill-in-the-blank
  • Close-ended
In most cases, close-ended can be the best. It is most convenient for interview, data collection as well as later data cleaning and analysis. However, it does requires the researcher has to have enough experience and get narrow down the list of very possible answers (choices).

Open-ended type is bad because you will get troubles for later data processing. I don't say one questionnaire should not have a single open-ended question but you should not design too many questions like that.

Close-ended questions can give choices like categorical or ordinal options. Ordinal means you can give some degrees or intensity levels for possible answers. It is more quantitative.

Choose what type of question depends on your experience with survey and expectation from your specific survey.

I did it to know the level of acceptance and perception about Bitcoin.
It can be different from demographics, SES, etc.
3333  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Factors affecting bitcoin business on: June 30, 2021, 02:01:34 PM
Change in government - it's simply means when another government enter there's will be reduction or addition of some policies.
It can bring positive or negative impacts on Bitcoin, short term. Long term, the trend is bullish. Because the general trend of traditional economy and fiat currency is hyper inflation.

The problems belong to governments, their fiats, not Bitcoin.

Quote
Political instability - when political system in the country is not stable, everything will get down.
It's not true. Have you ever heard the story of hyper inflation in Venezuela and the sudden massive adoption on cryptocurrency?

Financial and political crisis contributes to the top trading volume for Venezuela among other Latin-American nations on Localsbitcoin and Paxful.
3334  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My Bitcoin Questionnaire on: June 30, 2021, 12:29:13 PM
With a mixed target audience of educated and uneducated.
Educational variable is the most bias variable because in developing nations, you will have to face with inaccuracy when you collecting samples with questions related to educational levels.

Additionally, other variables such as age distribution, socioeconomic status (SES), etc can make sense on the exposure, acceptance for Bitcoin/cryptocurrency.

It is not a serious recommendation because you already collected data but some points are important for surveys:
  • Sample size
  • Sampling method
If you want to extrapolate the result from your sample to a specific population, then sample size and sampling method will be important. If your sampling method is bad, your sample can not represent that target population and you can not extrapolate results to the target population.

Result you get will only represent for that specific sample.

Supertrend
Super trend indicator will help you to stay with the trend that is your friend. This indicator is not good if you are trader but very good if you are investor, hodler. As investor, if you see the super trend is bullish, any dip will be chance for you to accumulate more.

As a trader, you need to look at narrower time frame and your actions need to be more quickly with price actions.

I'm still confused... if court has accepted that he's "Satoshi Nakamoto" or only his claim over whitepaper. What does this claim really mean?
Another attempt to double or tripple FUD.

Craig Wright is not and will never be recognized as Bitcoin founder. Never. He was detected by many plagiarism attempts. It makes sense to wipe out any attempt from him or any governments that support Craig Wright.

Craig Wright Accused of Plagiarism Again. Cointelegraph is a shit online newspaper but you can dig more to find more researches about Craig Wright plagiarism.

What’s up with Cøbra?
You also should know that Cobra want (vague reveals but it seems like that) to sell Bitcoin.org domain (in last year).

theymos, the head admin of our forum, choose a good move to separate the forum with Bitcoin.org website and Cobra.
Domain name update

It is why the hyperlink to update wallet at the top is directed to https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/.
