I think this coin needs a static node and checkpoints on the blockchain (even if I don't know how it technically works, I know it prevents the blockchain to fork...)
I have to start some servers in order to get that info, but can somebody tell me how big is the CAPT blockchain ?
Later on (but still today) I'm gonna have some time to put up a blockchain explorer...

But somehow this doesn't seem to be the correct chain. It's about 100,000 blocks ahead of the chain that was at cryptopia, and I don't know about Yobit.
It makes me wonder ... Would that be possible that the user sharing this bootstrap solomined the chain alone, and if the community uses this chain as the capt blockchain he'll get a bunch of CAPTs ?
Are you for real? Why would i waste all that time trying to get a bunch of CAPTs? this is a 3 year old coin, 100% Proof-of-stake, 100% premined by the dev for his Captcha distribution hence the name "CAPT" (Did you even read the first page?) Since CAPT was 100% PoS so what you are describing is near impossible for anyone except the dev, and you are suggesting that i have somehow magically PoW mined 100% premined PoS coin to create 3 year long chain just so i could upload a blockchain and get a bunch of CAPTs? What would I do with them? You are obviously unaware that no exchange uses bootstraps so therefore i would have no way to deposit onto them. Okay, so I guess the reply to my original question is "no". I didn't mean to talk personnally. English is not my native language, that was a poor choice of words, and I should'nt have written "the user sharing this bootstrap" but "some user sharing a bootstrap". My question was on the technical side. As if it's worth the time to do it .. I doubt so. And no, I didn't know that exchanges don't use bootstraps. oh but lets see its all clear why you are posting senseless and ignorant posts here... nice freshly bought account there you have there for signature spamming threads with is it?
"It makes me wonder ... Would it be possible you are not the original owner of the "yogg" account and that your "trust" is something you have inherited from the previous owner and did not earn yourself to get a bunch of loans or cheat signature campaigns ?"

This negative feedback was left by Quickseller who was not concerned by the transaction. (EDIT : Quickseller removed the neg feedback) On top of that, if you'd have checked the reference link, you would have seen that this particular deal was concluded to satisfaction with the other party involved. And yeah I'm broke, this is why I enlist in signature campaigns... -----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE----- This is yogg from bitcointalk.

I'd never sell my account. But thanks for saying that there is something to "inherit" from it. If you want, I can certainly sign one with CQg88HXfCGfvVeC2mRD1GTxruWJaf4i3Dr (as seen here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=683776.msg8147132#msg8147132) Again, sorry for my lack of knowledge and that whole blockchain/bootstrap/solomining/PoS/PoW thing. I know I'm so wrong, but every coin is pretty much the same to my eye : a token of value. If you think there is something malicious then don't use the bootstrap, download from the peer network, and this way you would also be another peer helping to keep the network alive. At the moment it very difficult to maintain a synced wallet as the main node changes its IP and without a working seednode its can take days if not weeks before its rediscovered if the wallet is restarted. ecuamobi the CAPT dev used to provide bootstraps and nodes before he abandoned the coin, and its been limping along ever since he shut them down without warning. Now with only a few exchanges and a handful of nodes, it has become a nightmare to sync from scratch, so i uploaded mine as convenience for others that are still around. If you really want to help then how being constructive eg: run a node, find us a new dev to update the wallet, help pay for some hosting on a block explorer that has the live network info so we people would not have problems and delays get their CAPT wallet synced up. I never thought that, otherwise I wouldn't have downloaded it nor ran it. Thanks a lot for what you did ! For that last part, if someone provides an access to a linux server, I can setup a blockchain explorer for Captcoin pretty much like this one : http://explorer.classicasset.cn/Now please let's focus on Captcoin.

An escrow to hold a physical item?
Exactly ! We have contacted several escrows and finally found somebody to escrow this transaction. PsychoticBoy agreed to help us, so today I have shipped the coins to the address provided by him and forwarded the tracking number to him. PsychoticBoy, can you please confirm and let us know when the coins have arrived so asxs_btc and I can proceed with the loan ? Thanks a lot !

Just look at to yobit for capt/btc trading the price is up to 617 Satoshi now, and I also have sync my capt wallet and got staking easily, I think the capt is wake up now
Can you share your bootstrap? I have a lot of difficult to download the blockchain, is too slow. Can you share your .conf file too please? Thank you. There you go. But somehow this doesn't seem to be the correct chain. It's about 100,000 blocks ahead of the chain that was at cryptopia, and I don't know about Yobit. It makes me wonder ... Would that be possible that the user sharing this bootstrap solomined the chain alone, and if the community uses this chain as the capt blockchain he'll get a bunch of CAPTs ?

The commenter also notes that ownership concentration is high, with 50 percent of bitcoin in the hands of fewer than 1,000 people, and that this high ownership concentration creates greater market liquidity risk, as large blocks of bitcoin are difficult to sell in a timely and market efficient manner. This commenter claims that daily trade volume is only a small fraction of total bitcoin mined. Everything said is true, is it not ? I think the main problem is the hoarding. Not that I blame hoarders, at my small level I'm hoarding too. Well, when I read this part I quoted, and replace BTC with USD or EUR, it's still true, except for the numbers. 50 percents of the USD is in the hands of fewer that even 100 people ... I do not understand why these arguments are to blame BTC whilst they apply to how things currently are ...

, if this a sale attempt why i write only 0.33 ? , why i didn't write 0.5 or 0.8 ??
Because no one wants to buy your domains for ~$900. So you lower the price, and will lower it until you get something. Your issue here is that you need to convince someone willing to lend 0.33 BTC to you that your domains are worth a lot more. Good luck with that ! i said it before , i trust my domains more valuable than the loan request.
You trust you'll sell them more than the loan request. I don't. Seriously I think your package value is nowhere above 0.1 BTC but that is my personnal opinion. I didn't use estibot or other valuation services to give that amount. So go ahead please, sell them for more than the loan request, you will see. Oh, sorry, you already tried ...

If you were in the telegram group 1 hour ago you would have seen the best entertainment ever: they all did a shitload of profit with ETF thing It is now past buddy: start yoru bot and keep going. It will profit for you, market conditions are back to normal almost.
Oh, I thought the Telegram was only to make direct contact with you. I'll have a look into this later ! Thanks for the hint. Okay, I will do that then. I feel sad I missed that.

Hey Gunthar, What would you recommend to do in such a market frenzy, following the BTC ETF news for example ? There is a lot of volume, but there also seems to be a general "up" trend for the interesting altcoins listed on Poloniex. Should the Gunbot users stop the bot or broaden the EMA ? I'm curious about your opinion.

So, if I understand it well, the escrow operates the poloniex account. What about your collateral, then ? Yeah. Since you want to borrow 10 BTC to make some trading operation, where is your guarantee to repay if things don't go as planned ? Imagine, it goes well, you give 10% to the lender, you take the rest (you might earn 4 or 5 btc doing so). Okay, but what if the 10 BTC is gone ? I made some trades in the margin trading of poloniex and I am with a loss of approximately 6.5btc.
Apparently, you want to use the same method with the borrowed 10 BTC. You already lost 6.5 BTC with it. What it the same happens and you have only 3.5 BTC left ? How will you repay the 6.5 BTC to lender ?

One commenter states that the market for bitcoin, by trade volume, is very shallow. This commenter notes that the majority of bitcoin is hoarded by a few owners or is out of circulation. The commenter also notes that ownership concentration is high, with 50 percent of bitcoin in the hands of fewer than 1,000 people, and that this high ownership concentration creates greater market liquidity risk, as large blocks of bitcoin are difficult to sell in a timely and market efficient manner. This commenter claims that daily trade volume is only a small fraction of total bitcoin mined. This commenter also states that several fundamental flaws make bitcoin a dangerous asset class to force into an exchange traded structure, including shallow trade volume, extreme hoarding, low liquidity, hyper price volatility, a global web of unregulated bucket-shop exchanges, high bankruptcy risk, and oversized exposure to trading in countries where there is no regulatory oversight. Source : https://www.sec.gov/rules/sro/batsbzx/2017/34-80206.pdfYeah, thanks to such "commenters".. Did the SEC got that commenter in the Trump team ?

What guarantees do you offer to make sure that you will repay the loan ? (other than words) Since you are a newbie user, you can just get some BTC, log off and hasta la vista baby ! How can someone considering lending to you be sure that this will never happen ? (requires something more than words ...)

I think Coinbase allows you to buy some BTC with your credit card. You can certainly withdraw them to your BTC address then. https://www.coinbase.comThank you, but are interested in services that immediately bring money to your bitcoin wallet? Those transfer from the card and immediately to your bitcoin wallet. Yes, at Coinbase you can but BTC with your credit card and immediatly receive the BTC to a bitcoin wallet. As far as I know, localbitcoins.com is great but does not offer the credit card option.

hahahaha nice try to get a job you think you get job without having any past experience just calling other time waster and they give you job hmmmm nice trick
Let me explain how trading works here : 1) Employer sends money to an escrow who confirms he received the money for the said job. 2) Employee does the works, and delivers it. 3) When employer is happy about the work, he asks the escrow to release funds to employee. So how can I get paid for a job I cannot do ? What makes you say I have no past experience ? Yes, you are a time waster, and I happily give you mine for free.
