CrazyLoaf is starting a new project with an Airdrop to to CK players as part of the initial emission of game currency, he's free to attempt anything he wants, nobody can force him to do anything, and he can't force anybody to participate. The simple answer to your question is 'loaf doesn't want to bother with depot mess', he's explained his thinking many times.

Maybe the question is why others expect him to do what they want, but aren't doing themselves, including me who is just watching and doing nothing.

What is the start date for wcg program, if we start boinc now will those points get counted towards byteball distribution?

I think this wcg program could really go viral, most people using boinc would have heard about Bitcoin now, and when the advantages of byteball are explained things could explode.

Volume is coming, better to have the platform working well before the users start arriving en mass, which I expect will start happening later in Q3. I have not been trading for 6 months now, too much regulatory risk now, not worth exposing yourself to gangsters with kyc data leaks, and I think many early crypto users are doing the same, sitting on the sidelines, waiting for optimised p2p platforms.

I agree 100%, the community needs to get behind the devs and support CBX as much as possible, which I think will happen when coinbook exchange starts. There's a sea change coming in crypto markets now as institutional money has more entry points into crypto assets that meets traditional legacy finance standards. So many potential buyers can't really access the crypto market legally now, but soon this will change, and CBX will shine brightly as a great investment to these new players.

Yes, becoming a forum tipping coin can keep TALK alive , is there a signature for TALK,  I would support this coin above 90% of other coins, there was no scam with this distribution, just grass roots early crypto adopters from 2014.

Long live TALK!

Is there a tutorial on buying tickets for refugees from dcr evolution? It was such a great service, so thanks for the time it was up, I'd love to keep staking but do I need my PC on 24/7, or can I buy tickets and then leave my wallet offline.

Congratulations to bitmark devs and community, I honestly did not believe this day would come. It would be great to see bitmark devs give an update on what they're planning from here, how will marking be implemented outside of crypto users, are there plans to setup some use cases in other areas that have some ground work already in progress.

South Africa is a great target market for veretaseum, they have many entrepreneurs there who are open minded to new technology and aren't locked into traditional power structures of most legacy finance, plus there is democracy and relatively stable institutions and infrastructure.

On my mailbox I have a 'please no advertising material' sticker, such a shame you can't put one on a btt thread. Why do you post pointless spam message with your referral code everywhere bro, it clogs up the forum like a big poo in the toilet!

Only gamblers need to constantly win to reinforce their habit, if you're the type of person who enjoys researching crypto projects and looking for the hidden gems, then short term price action is completely irrelevant.

XEL has awesome dev team, and really great use cases, so it's great to follow.

Losing money to scammers really pisses me off, but waisting my time on a crazy guys performance art comedy, and social experiment ... that's different. The dev here is laughing at you guys , he's getting off on how smart he is to string gullible people along, safe in the knowledge he didn't scam anyone because he didn't accept any money. If you don't mind being laughed at as long as you don't buy this token then let the memes continue forever.

Bittrex has been captured by TPTB, they're not usable as an exchange for regular crypto people now, they've shown their true colours enough for me on many occaisions,  do not trust bittrex, they steal user money.

Wow, that looks like a bargain to me, well done arknet if you get that price. I'm looking to buy some qora too, but not keen on OTC myself, so will wait for an exchange listing.

I'd give my right arm to have qora trading on BarterDEX

Good point, having an exchange listing in this era of kyc for dev teams is a definite advantage. I hope someine keeps the FUNK alive, but the whole point was the music, and unless that continues then it's really all about, 'keeping the speculation alive', which isn't going to get George Clinton or Bootsy Collins excited.

If you price things in fiat you will soon go mad in the crypto world, too many large swings that will give you brain damage from whiplash. We need to price things in crypto, so against btc. That is the only thing that makes sense. I know Lambos aren't sold in bitcoin, but one day they will.

In bitcoin terms IOTA is doing pretty good, no crisis I can see.

The silvercoin fund dates back to 2014 afaik, that's back in the crypto Jurassic period with the dinosaurs,  use the funds to support the security of the network, top up the SN program.

All coins are flying on the same plane and Bitcoin sentiment is, unfortunately, at the controls. As altitude gets lower I expect some good projects will decouple from btc and then parachute safely to land, and then the quality ones will fly off on their own. Good news for quality coins like IOTA, but to fly off without being held down by bitcoin requires hitting the ground first, and a parachute will avoid getting splatted. Iota has a parachute, but most cryptos don't. Stay calm bro, brace for impact, head down, start sniffing your balls!

I agree changing SN rules after investors have already made life changing investment decisions is NOT a good idea, however, what I am suggesting is:

- respect the existing SN rules until they expire (approx 2 years I think)
- top up the SN funds from other sources like silvercoin fund, and maybe some marketing accounts
- use the topped up funds to extend the SN bounty, BUT, start tapering the reward, maybe change the lockup amount

Why do this? Because under the current rules I estimate the SN bounty will abruptly end in just under 2 years, and when it does that could precipitate a crisis where:
- there is a massive liquidation of SN locked up funds at the same time
- the number of nodes drops drastically and the network becomes unstable

Those two combined could be a coin killing event, so I'd like to see something planned ahead of time, but yes, I don't think changing the rules is cool, that's why I'm advocating extending the whole SN program with new funds, and then adding a gradual and graceful transition to lower SN rewards.

Changing the SN lockup amount is another variable to play with for sure, but if you drop the SN amount too low the reward per SN will fall as the number of SN's increases. If the SN lockup is too low the result could be the opposite of what you expect, the reward for locking up XEM could become too small, and some SN operators decide the reward isn't enough anymore, and they sell, so you end up with about the same number of SN we have now. It's a balancing act! Guys locking up 3M XEM might just sell 1M or 2M XEM at the same time so they can still run 1-2 SN's, what effect would that have?

Whatever happens, giving people a lot of warning of changes, and then certainty is critical.

This is a pretty terrible idea man, the horse has already bolted with the distribution, if you change things now you'll only piss a lot of people off, and not enough funds to get on an exchange now anyway.
