This is an interesting solution and heating energy usage, but I don't think it's applicable for small miners because of all the additional costs and work.

Still, if you own a rental building, you could do such a 'heating system' in the basement for fun and profit Cheesy
42  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I was invited to speak about Bitcoin to financial management college students on: March 05, 2021, 01:53:44 PM
It's been a while since my last speaking engagement in a Philippines-based university. That was before the pandemic began. I've been speaking to various universities and communities before to educate them about the basics of Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, etc. I've missed doing that by the way, as the pandemic disallows face-to-face classes in the Philippines.

Recently, one of the students representing a well-known university in the Philippines reached out to me personally and was inviting me to become the guest speaker of their Financial Management class to educate them about the Bitcoin and blockchain basics.

It will be done virtually since travel restrictions are still imposed and I am still scared of traveling because I don't want to be quarantined. But yet, I am still privileged and excited to talk about Bitcoin to students again, but in a virtual setup. Feels good!

That's nice!

Let's hope that your lecture will bring many bright and young minds into crypto.

What do you plan to speak about? Bitcoin 101 or more advanced topics?
43  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [IEO] ⚡AMEPAY- Crypto ⇌ Retail. IEO in BKEX + Listing in Bithumb Global 🔥 on: March 05, 2021, 11:30:39 AM
Anyway, there is no any new message from manager in bounty telegram chat about distribution. Except the last one, in which he wrote that he had banned some users, and promissed that payments would be done.
There is currently no clarity. The bounty manager does not provide certainty when there will be payment. they just keep making excuses. In the past, there was a transaction fee and now the Team is busy. This reason shows how the integrity of Amepay is utterly bad and is not competent for what they have promised regarding the campaign.

Unreasonable, looking for excuses after reasons to make people believe again but I wonder how long it will be? How long can they afford to find new excuses that keep popping up in their minds.






Not long.

It looks like AME is now on the exit-scam phase. People lost patience and faith in the project.

People are dumping coins (3mn+) in the past 2 hours and the price dropped 20%.

The team is constantly 'very busy', AME is not paying the bounty, banning people who raise a voice, errors on staking, and so on:



44  Economy / Speculation / Re: ARE WE STILL BULLISH OR BEARISH ? on: March 02, 2021, 10:52:04 PM
we have seen some little dips in the past few days and its a big concern which many have said we should brace up for dips. currently the price is bouncing off the 44k region which can mean we might go up a little. looking at the chart i see 42-42k region as a strong support but if we close below this region then we might be in for a long to the 30k region. such is how market behaves so anyone who is happy about moon should also be expecting the dip. please give your views about the current market situations in terms of being bullish or bearish.

I think we are in the loo(p) until the next big news that could be negative or positive.

It seems that without anything new, the Bitcoin price will swing in the $44k-$50k. I kind of like it without much volatility.
45  Economy / Exchanges / Re: For Coinbase Satoshi Nakamoto is a Risk Factor on: March 01, 2021, 06:43:44 PM
We all know that Satoshi associated addresses have a lot of Bitcoins, but is Satoshi really deserving to be in Risk Factor category?

For a company looking at a $100bn valuation, yes - it's a severe risk factor.

Imagine the market reaction if there is a single movement from the addresses associated with Satoshi Nakamoto. Now imagine the market reaction if they sell even a fraction of these coins.
46  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will the Lightning Network replace on-chain transactions sometime in the future? on: March 01, 2021, 06:35:35 PM
I'm aware that the Lightning Network's mainstream adoption is still low these days. But as on-chain fees increase towards new heights, people will look for other options. They'd either choose an altcoin, or the Lightning Network in order to avoid high fees and slow transaction confirmation times.

If adoption for the Lightning Network goes all the way to the moon, do you think there's a possibility it could replace on-chain transactions? Of course, that is excluding on-chain transactions to open/close a channel on the Lightning Network. I think that miners will be doomed if something like this happens.

What are thoughts? Huh

I don't think that Lightning Network will ever get mainstream adoption because people see Bitcoin as an asset to store value.

On the other hand, due to the cosmic fees and DeFi, L2 on Ethereum could be adopted very soon as people are sick of paying $50 for a simple transfer.
47  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: what do you think about the few days deep on: February 27, 2021, 12:32:37 PM

I find it healthy because this little correction allows us to re-arrange and fill up our portfolios better. In my case, I added Venus because at $85 is was way overpriced, but at $50 is fine, considering the BSC DeFi hype.
48  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How to build a relationship with an investor correctly? on: February 27, 2021, 12:15:24 PM
Who can provide professional assistance and support in organizing mutually beneficial relationships with investors.

Nobody can/will do it for a random person over the internet.

I suggest you make a proper introduction of yourself and your idea. And to start the relationship correctly, do not sugar coat your idea. Be honest.
49  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Circle of Competence on: February 27, 2021, 12:08:41 PM

That's why I stick to crypto and avoid the stock markets Cheesy

Because I want to stick to what I know and what I understand, plus, here are the current hype and the money...
50  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is a Lifeboat on: February 27, 2021, 09:21:35 AM
I cannot accept Bitcoin as a Lifeboat. I don't expect even crypto to replace fiat.

But I accept crypto as a doorstep to many (earning) opportunities that don't exist in the fiat world. I'm optimistic but cautious.
51  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Any good Pedictions for alt coins LIKE ADA, DOT, XRP... ?? on: February 26, 2021, 07:24:14 PM


Are there any good predictions for altcoins like ADA CORDANO, POLKA DOT, XRP. in 2021. I've been buying so many of them in November and to be honest I've been so impressed about  the POLKADOT it's growing fast that I was wondering if it's  possible to invest more money on PolkatDot  or just for maybe  just wait for the price to go low again? and how long can we hold those altcoins until get the perfect gain

And anyone can tell me more about BTCST? I've earned that coin on staking BNB on Binance But the problem is that I can't convert  BTCST to any other coin is ts possible de convert it or no ?


Thanks you

I cannot guarantee you that my prediction is right. Still, from your list, I like ADA & Polkadot and dislike Ripple.

ADA & Polkadot have a future due to the current DeFi & Smart contracts hype.

Ripple is centralized sh**.
52  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Currently i am quit from market and come in 2024 on: February 26, 2021, 07:01:37 PM
If you can't stand the variance, it's not such a wrong decision. Different people have different risk tolerance.

I did something similar in 2018. But now I'm here to stay.
53  Economy / Economics / Re: Facebook agrees to makes payments to Australia on: February 25, 2021, 07:31:54 PM
It seems that it is actually possible to come to an agreement. Facebook has to pay a tax for using news from Australian media. I would really like to see Europe using a fair taxation for the income generated in Europe as opposed to the current massive lassier-faire.

Of course FB will agree. Losing First World markets like Australia or France, where they are obligated to pay too, could be devastating.

I'm more curious will the Australia and France actions create a domino effect that will change the internet as we know it.
54  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Amepay does not keep payment promises Bounty on: February 25, 2021, 09:27:50 AM
...

It is just funny how the likes of you rush to make scam accusations against the the team or bounty manager whenever payment is delayed.
AMEpay is a project whose team had distributed not less than $2.5 worth of tokens in bounty and airdrop. They even conducted a signature bounty where the participants were paid in Bitcoin. How can you say such a team scams and will not pay just the remaining 2,000,000 token which was just $40,000 at the IEO price?
The forum has to put a penalty in place for anyone making this kind of false accusations or give red trusts as a result of vendetta.

This is about trust.

I didn't participate in the AME campaign. I was considering buying and holding AME, but how can I trust a project that always makes new excuses to pay even the bounty campaign?!
55  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can't be used for transactions? on: February 24, 2021, 06:05:31 PM
From what I've read, Bitcoin now charges high transaction fee and long transaction wait time so it can't presently be used:

a) for a conversion from Bitcoin to cash?
or b) purchases using Bitcoin? Huh

Bitcoin and Ethereum are useless for small and everyday transactions.

But you could always use or exchange them to USDC/USDT/Tron and pay whatever you want with crypto through a debit card or payment service.
56  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Binance Downtimes during Panic Trading will cause the next Crypto Market Crash on: February 24, 2021, 05:43:54 PM
I am calling it today. Binance usually goes down during peak and panic trading, which makes fear and uncertainties grow bigger. Most volume is being handled by Binance world wide. We are in a sad state with all these beautiful decentralised crypto currencies, but we all went for one exchange plattform because of low fees and convenience.

This is false. Many exchanges experience overloads during big dumps.

Kraken & Bitmex are notorious for this. While Bitmex is not going down, you literally cannot place an order due to timeouts. And yet, the crypto trading is still here.
57  Economy / Services / Re: Ways to earn crypto as a new programmer on: February 24, 2021, 03:45:50 PM
Hi guys,

I am looking for tips on earning crypto using my programming & web development skills? I have worked as professional web developer for 5 years and currently in my first year of a computer science degree so I am proficient in C programming language with some python knowledge.

Could anybody suggest ways I could possibly earn some crypto over the next few months? I'd really like to earn maybe 2000-3000 euro before June to buy a car for the summer, does anybody think it's doable?

Thanks in advance!

Google: Triangular Arbitrages

Check these videos: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVTnyT4fUxYkvawbggo8-AQ/featured

Use your knowledge and write a custom bot. You could easily make 2000-3000 euro before June.

58  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Elon Musk looking to buy more Bitcoin ? on: February 23, 2021, 12:30:57 PM
The ultimate market manipulator is at it again.

Yeah, the market is too volatile to the news.

I don't know about Elon Musk, but MicroStrategy just raised $900+mn to buy more Bitcoin. In theory, we should expect a new bull run very soon.
59  Economy / Economics / Re: COIN PRICES CRASHING!!! SELL BITCOIN NOW!!!! on: February 22, 2021, 05:08:12 PM
It was about time!

But we will not sell... we will buy more when! At least this is what I'm planning to do. I will be one pleased person if Bitcoin drops to $34567 because then my waiting orders will be executed.
60  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if the major holders of bitcoin all decided to sell it all? on: February 21, 2021, 06:54:37 AM
https://www.cryptoglobe.com/latest/2018/09/diar-research-less-than-1-of-crypto-wallets-hold-87-of-all-bitcoins/

It's kind of concerning that so few people hold so much bitcoin.

Are these holders even active or what? I'm guessing they bought at the beginning and are all just holding.

Real worlds, real money. Aren't you concerned about this then?

"According to the latest Fed data, the top 1% of Americans have a combined net worth of $34.2 trillion (or 30.4% of all household wealth in the U.S.), while the bottom 50% of the population holds just $2.1 trillion combined (or 1.9% of all wealth)."  https://www.forbes.com/sites/tommybeer/2020/10/08/top-1-of-us-households-hold-15-times-more-wealth-than-bottom-50-combined/

If some whales decide to sell, we may experience a short price fall but nothing more in the current market conditions.
