Yöntem güzel, iyi bildiğiniz tanıdığınız coinlerde denemenizi tavsiye ederim. Huyunu suyunu bilmediğiniz coinlerde denerseniz elinizde patlama ihtimali de var. Dikkatli odaklanarak yapılan tradelerde genelde kazanırsınız. Burdaki temel kural kendiniz olaya çok kaptırmamak ve genellikle profesyonel hareket edebilmek.

Bu ETF olayı gerçekten artık kabak tadı vermeye başladı. Bence onaylanmasa daha iyi bu piyasa zaten kontrol edilebilir olmadığı için kripto para piyasası, sınırlamalar ve engellemeler olduğu sürece eski tadının kalacağını sanmıyorum.

This project polarises blockchain tech in general.
How useful is blockchain storage e.g, and what advantages does it offer compared to existing storage tech.
NONE, quite the opposite.

What about the advantages of websites on the blockchain, are there any, for the average Joe who couldn't care less where his shit is hosted?

Decentralisation needs to make sense to be applicable.
If it doesn't, its just pissed into the wind, like so often before in the development of new technologies.

Cars were built with rocket engines or helicopter turbines, it didn't prevail in the market.

This is how I see MAID, as an example of what NOT to use blockchain tech for.
3764  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / The Long Lasting Dash vs. Monero Battle Seems To Be Over on: March 02, 2017, 02:17:39 PM
Time for the ever lying and cheating Monero crowd to admit they lost.
Or are you going to play it like Clinton, Obama and the DemocRats?
Never admit anything, keep lying, cheating, trying to destruct good things just to get rid of competitors.

Congrats to the DASH camp, the better ones prevailed in the end.

Next thing I'm waiting for now, is that POLO changes their XMR market, well, for DASH.

Its a funny riddle. Why Delphi?
Think about the name, what other name pops up next to it, native?
Where's the game at, who's playing?

Hm, maybe I should buy some of that shit.
3766  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Monero under scrutiny of the FBI on: February 09, 2017, 06:18:53 PM
Maybe we see the beginning of a worldwide crackdown on money laundering thru crypto, with China leading the way.
Bitfinex is a Hongkong OP? Are they affected by the ruling?

3767  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [FUD] Pascal Coin on: February 09, 2017, 05:53:09 PM
Really this is coded in Turbo Pascal, Not in C++ or Assembly language? haha. It must be slow. The whales behind the rapid movement of Pascalcoin is amazing. Now its gone, sorry to all people who bought. 

Not that I'm really interested in this PnD, but just as a remark, I picked up somewhere that its a Delphi project.
You would be astonished how much proprietary old Delphi/Pascal crap is still in use in the corporate sector, running on mainframes of insurances, banks etc.
Its a nice SDK with a VERY fast compiler and it bridges C++ tollfree. From Borland.

As soon as i seen Smoothie as the last poster here i clicked..
figuring i'd see the "Like Cash / Fiat" retort.. nope. (he used the internet)

Then.. generalizethis "Mr Fungability" played the retort  Cheesy

You guys are a broken record skipping on and on..



EDIT:

In other news the Monero dev's dice gambling site he runs was hacked for a fortune people.

Aww poor Monero can't catch a break hahahhah

The point is, the "retort" statement how you call it contradicts and refutes itself.

If the US $ would be such a simple analog, why would there be the need to use a crypto currency in the first place.
Which also refutes your worn out use of the term "fungibility".

It shows that you don't even understand what the term means in an economic context, and that you only use it as a smokescreen.
There are laws for the exchange of value, in fungible ways or not, and your only intent is to evade them.

HUH? You need cc because you can't convert cash digitally.

You are making the classic mistake of viewing fungibility as binary--some things can be more fungible than others in the economic sense and asking the tptb to create them or for digital cash to be moral is an epic fail on your part as it misses that a cc as fungible as cash is supposed to be  (non-digital of course--absurd i have to make that point, but whatever) it has to be able to be exchanged on any exchange without the exchange blocking it (as was the case with BTCe and the Evolution scammers)--as long as 1 xmr = 1 xmr anywhere, it is as fungible as cash is on the street (barring the use of the view key to link yourself to a crime as would a cash wielding criminal with blood stains on his money--though having to explain that level of stupidity as an edge case is a homage to your level of understanding of what a digital cash should, can, and must do). Good luck, dude--my guess is your portfolio and politics are a mirror of your ignorance of all things crypto.

You're missing the point, again.
This thread is not about fungibility, its about criminal intent, the law, the society we all live in.
You're using the term as a smokescreen to distract from the fact, all the time.

Do you understand that?

And then in other news:

Anonymous Hacks Darknet Hosting Site

A faction within the Anonymous movement has claimed responsibility for hacking Freedom Hosting II, a hosting company for TOR based onion websites or the darknet.

The hackers claimed that child pornography made up more than half of the data that was hosted on the servers.

This is not surprising considering the fact that the original Freedom Hosting hosted as many as half of the child porn sites on the darknet.

The hackers have since dumped the data, and it includes the email addresses of nearly 381,000 users. At least 21 percent of them are already included on haveibeenpwned.com, a website that tracks user data leaks.

3771  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Positive news from Ripple (XRP) on: February 03, 2017, 06:25:26 AM
How to get some xrp, is it sold or being given away? Ripple looks like professional company, but with no mining or ico, how will they sell so much tokens without hurting previous investors.

Its pretty pointless for private investors to invest in the tokens. The goal is to keep them cheap and at a stable price.
To make money with Ripple, you would have to be an integrator, or offer some service which adds value employing the system.

Its also a becoming a more convenient and faster way than Bitcoin, to check out of exchanges like Poloniex.
Bitstamp for example accepts XRP, and its fast, compared to the ongoing BTC disaster with the ever more clogged blockchain.
3772  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Positive news from Ripple (XRP) on: February 03, 2017, 06:08:27 AM
It is all hype. We have seen a lot of news like this about Ripple beginning 2 to 3 years ago and nothing has happened. Are we seeing being used by the banks? No. Will the banks use Ripple?. No again. Is this hype in the interest of the company behind Ripple to pump XRP? No answer needed.

Ripple has never been hyped as a store of value, only as a transaction system.

Quite the opposite is the case, RippleLabs always made it clear, that they would go against every attempt to pump up the price of the tokens, by any third party, and thats what they are doing.

Its the ONLY transaction system capable of offering industry strength so far, and thus its being adopted by a lot of banks and institutions to save money on their internal infrastructure.

Your comments show your agenda, and your lack of knowledge or denial of the facts very clearly.
Your only problem with Ripple is, that you can't make money pumping the shit out of it.
3773  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best anonymous transactions for a cryptocurrency? on: February 03, 2017, 05:31:01 AM
Best anonymous transactions will very shortly become NO anonymous transactions.
At least if your project aims to become a commercial success, and not just a proof of concept.

Anonymous transactions will be banned from compliance with money laundering laws, by the CFTC/SEC very shortly.
Or at least would have to contain methods to enable law enforcement to de-anonymize transactions.
Laws for that are already in the making, Britain is pushing control of end-to-end encryption and will make it a felony to use software containing such features. If you want to be compliant and listed for trading on a noteworthy exchange, anonymous transactions will become a no-go, mark my words.

Very much like when RSA encryption fell under export control in the US, back in the days.

Hey arsehole gang, time to start bashing VCASH again, its just having a comeback.
Looks like people are bailing XMR and buy XVC instead.

I could understand them. Too much shit coming up around XMR atm.

Bashing VCASH?  Nah, there's no need to beat that dead horse.

Without John Conner there is no VCASH just as without Evan Duffield there is no DASH.

Stop conflating BUS_FACTOR=1 hobby coins with those enjoying a critical mass of developers.

I think they have a nice coin now that the psycho is gone and the crew seems to do a good job, seems a nice hobby they have.
And you're getting desperate, because you're running out of arguments.
Your head honcho developer indeed has enough critical mass, I know that just by looking at his beer tits.

But anyway, this is the Monero FBI thread, lets go on with that and observe its downward spiral into oblivion.

Interesting article about Ring CT on Steemit
https://steemit.com/cryptonote/@macrochip/warning-every-cryptonote-monero-transaction-in-history-will-be-retroactively-exposed

Warning: Every CryptoNote/Monero transaction in history will be retroactively exposed

The CryptoNote codebase and its best known currency-derivative Monero, both of which prominently use ring signature anonymity as their defining feature, build their entire privacy scheme upon said feature. This is highly problematic to anyone that relies on their transactions to be anonymous not only in the present but also well into the future as I will show in the following.

If someone or something (e.g. an AI) ever were to break ring signature anonymity every CryptoNote currency's blockchain will be completely de-anonymized from beginning to end. This only has to happen once. So in regards to anonymity Cryptonote has one centralized point of failure: The robustness of its ring signature implementation.

Case in point

A (former?) Monero team member going by the name of "Shen Noether" wrote a (now deleted) blog post about how he was able to break the anonymity of ShadowCash due to an erroneous implementation of ring signatures (Here's an archived version. - And an archive of that).

Shen went on to deanonymize the entire ShadowCash blockchain from start to finish just to prove the flaw he found was serious and painfully real. Had anyone -up to that point and subsequently- ever put their faith into SDC's flawed ring signature implementation and made a life and death transaction with ShadowCash, they'd be in mortal danger right now (to emulate doomsday rhetoric heard from Monero "steward" Riccardo Spagni in regards to other privacy-oriented currency projects and their purported flaws).

It wouldn't even take a big case and all that.
If the FBI would give a recommendation to ban it from complying exchanges, a simple memo from the CFTC would be enough to enforce it.
If POLO and all other US exchanges would have to take it down, what do you think would happen to your beloved coin?

Could legitimize it as THE darknet coin. Also, are you banning Monero or all the cryptonote coins? All future variants? On what grounds? Wouldn't this effect ALL cryptocurrencies as Monero has a viewkey available and is easy for voluntary compliance?


Of course, you could even choose to rebrand it to "Darkcoin" then, I think the name just became available.

All cryptocurrencies are under the scrutiny of the FBI--it's the FBI's job to monitor darkmarkets, tax evasion, and the like--it's the fact that the  FBI is worried about Monero that is the point of the article.

The FBI is singling Monero out for the very fact that its special properties put it on the same footing as two of the oldest and most trusted coins used for illicit activities--this is what cash is supposed to do, this is what capitalism is supposed to do. Good money does bad things. You will never see Washington wince when he's used to buy crack, you will never see him yawn when you buy the morning paper, and you will certainly never see him cheer when you buy an ounce of your grandmother's illicit cataract medication. Good money does bad things, period.

Those people fretting and hand waving do not see (or likely choose to ignore) that real freedom is tied to private money--good money capable of exerting its holders free will at any moment, at any time. Those that say big government has already won,  have already lost the will to fight, to do what's right in the face of impossible odds, to be vigorous freemen in a time apathetic slavery. At the end of the day, every man and woman's choice is simple, to be a slave or a master--if you are waiting for the powers that be to validate your investment, you have made your last free choice and will gladly take what's handed to you--and though I will feel pity for you, and can even emphasize with the conditions of your slavery, I will never sympathize with the conditions of your failure to break free and set a new course for humanity in this dark time of surveillance states.  If you are waiting for an authority to take you by the hand and lead you greener pastures, you will be continually disappointed that greenest pastures, the choicest venues, the sparkling rivers, the places you always wished you could be, are reserved for those you follow.

The digital world before us is as vast as our imaginations, a land beyond the scope of any nation, no matter how powerful they may seem in the confines of their physical state--they are limited by nature's bounds, constructs of hierarchal determinism, incapable of pondering virtual states of each man his own, each woman her own--it is not by accident that the final battlefield is our imaginations, and the quickness in which some give over their ultimate freedom matches the long drawn out physical history of rule or be ruled, and then the cataclysm of the wisdom that asserts--I have only myself to rule or be ruled.


Hard to say what you mean by that. Best bet is that you haven't been busted, yet. But that may change, because "Good private money capable of exerting its holders free will at any moment" is usually kept in best possible secret and the owners usually don't go bragging about their fortunes, promoting their illicit activities almost every day on public forums. I can't even see how that would help the general cause you're addressing.

Its a common issue with criminals. After they got away with their trickery for so long they feel entitled to that outcome, and are utterly astonished when "the law" comes knocking on their doors.

I bolded the important part for you. You claim not to know what I mean, and then assert that I have used Monero for criminal purposes--your mistake. My point is that good money (like cash and Monero) is indifferent to whether you use it for legal or illegal activities, but only needs to be fungible to allow you the choice.

In the case of Monero, it has been promoted as a better replacement for Bitcoin for mostly criminal purposes, and its success is bound to that fact. Fungibility is just a pretext, all criminals have them.

Fungibility is a property--all technologies have them.

Really? And now you want to claim in all seriousness that Monero's success was due to it being fungible, or what?
Go ahead man, take another hit from your crack pipe and try again.

You're not arguing my point, you are intimating that Monero's success is due to darkmarkets, which may or may not be true. My point is that good money has to be fungible and fungibility is a property--in this case a technological property of Monero. Do you disagree that fungibility is a technological property? Are you arguing that Monero is only used illicit activities? Those are points I can argue, the rest is hand wavy moralizing and faulty assertions on your part.

I'm not arguing because there is nothing to argue. Every other shitcoin is fungible, until it isn't anymore.
Once your coin is dead and some of you're in jail, it will be as fungible as my grandmas undies.
