401  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Proof of Work vs Proof of Stake on: June 30, 2018, 11:48:17 AM
A central idea of blockchain technology is the distributed ledger. It is called a distributed ledger because instead of being stored in a central location, it is stored across a network of computers all around the world. For a distributed ledger to work, the entire network collectively has to agree with the contents of the ledger; this is the job of the consensus mechanism. The most popular blockchain consensus mechanisms are the Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS) systems., A number of other systems exist, such as Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) and Federated Byzantine Agreement (FBA) however this article will be focussed on presenting and then comparing PoW vs PoS.

Nice article.
Thanks

Problem for PoS i distribution....so it is not fair from start

What do you mean exactly?

As in PoW at the start, miners can start mining a new coin and accumulate a good amount before the difficulty catches up which provides equal opportunity to everyone as the majority of people owe a fully fledged PC whereas, with PoS, one has to buy the coins to get a minimum amount to actually start staking.
I'm always in hope that the new coins start as PoW and then transit slowly to PoS by time.

Definitely mod the bios of the GPU and check the hashrate. It should increase and the power consumption will decrease a bit.
You can go to anorak.tech to find some bios online for your GPU.
403  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are new currencies still needed, or just new tokens? on: May 02, 2018, 08:56:27 AM
There will always be someone with a unique idea or addition to the blockchain technology that hasn't been out yet and will pursue to bring it to life with hard work and dedication. Only that kind of coins/tokens will have any utility in the future. That kind is just one in hundred as of now but there will always be the inception of new coins born upon unique ideas that can transform blockchain as a whole.
404  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum for holding now on: May 02, 2018, 08:43:47 AM
It depends on personal opinion.
I for one is very bullish towards ETH and have been from the start and the best decision you can make is to research and see if you feel like ETH or BTC has the potential for the future and invest according to it.
405  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty hunters should be paid in ETH on: May 01, 2018, 08:38:48 PM
Many of ICOs allocate some of the tokens to participants in bounty campaigns. Don't you think it is better to give bounty participnats reward in ETH?
1-2% of the money raised is not so much and bounty participants deserve that. Also, it can cause more investors to attract. Because they are no longer worry about the price fall after bounties are paid.


That'll be a game changer all in all for bounty campaigns.
Receiving Bounty by means of ETH or any other major cryptocurrency other than their respective token will increase the number of interested participants and can directly affect the quality of the content provided by the participants.
EDIT: An option to choose between ETH/other alternatives or their own tokens as a mode of incentive might be a great idea.
406  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HODL while you can on: April 30, 2018, 06:56:23 PM
Trading requires skill and experience to generate good amounts of profit and it has a learning curve of its own.
Whereas HODL is a good way to keep on to your cryptos.
What history has taught us, patience is the key to success in crypto.
In a year or two, just holding can be so profitable.
407  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: EOS - SCAM OR NOT? BUY OR NOT? on: April 30, 2018, 06:52:10 PM
SCAM? Not at all.
EOS is actually a really great blockchain project and its sudden surge indicates how good of a project it is.
Well, I'm expecting a correction and at that time, EOS will be a good buy.
408  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons why I believe we'll see XRP 10 $ before End of year! on: April 29, 2018, 02:56:32 PM
XRP $10 by the end of the year.
No offence but I don't think so.
The circulating supply is still 1/3 of the total supply, and for it to even reach that price, at the current market capitalization. It'll have to be 90% dominant in the crypto-sphere which seems beyond the bound of possibility.

410  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it normal to wait for 6 months for a bounty reward? on: April 26, 2018, 09:07:28 PM
Six months wait time for the reward of the bounty campaign seems excessive.
I don't think so anyone should even consider these types of bounty campaigns.

The very first Ethereum meetup in Miami in January of 2014



https://twitter.com/IOHK_Charles/status/989592176534450176?s=20

Wow! That's a classic. Each and every beginning has a humble start.
Either be it multi-national companies such as Apple, HP, etc. or next multi-billion dollar blockchain projects.
412  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: MyEtherWallet hack on: April 25, 2018, 07:25:59 PM
Well, it was very unfortunate for the people who lost their funds. Last time I checked the hacker managed to get around 216 ETH and maybe the number is more now but everyone is made aware which is good to know.
413  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is buying new listed coin profitable? on: April 25, 2018, 07:21:11 PM
If the new coin is getting listed in one of the major cryptocurrency exchanges then it will surely boost the price of the coin in the short run, but always do your research before doing anything.
414  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Some say myetherwallet hacked to day. Be carefull. on: April 24, 2018, 04:35:32 PM
My My! 216 ETH till now.
That could be worth half a million in coming time.
I hope for no further losses of other people and encourage everyone to always be updated with the news and try alternative and more secure ways to store cryptos.
415  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [CAUTION] MyEtherWallet(MEW) hijacked (April 24, 2018) on: April 24, 2018, 04:31:45 PM
Really appreciate the update regarding this. That's why it is important to keep up to date with whatever happening in the crypto world.
I'll definitely recommend everyone to safeguard your cryptos as they are becoming more and more valuable day by day.
416  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Russia is going to accept crypto! on: April 24, 2018, 04:28:19 PM
Happy to see countries are providing legal status to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and understanding the value of underlying technology that the blockchain is. Crypto-market is still in infant stages and it will definitely be mainstream in a few years.

Earn a lot of money with bitcoins by letting the chrome page light up

$$$ Make it rain, drink mimosas and rent the beach for only the cost of two clicks and a Chrome app! What a remarkable deal you are offering to us. Although, since this is your first post I would suggest that everything you are doing right now is suspicious. You're going to need to explain what you're offering in a bit greater detail if you expect anybody to take you seriously.

Become a minor

That is impossible, unless you change the legislation to increase the age at which someone is considered a minor. As far as I know, time-travel has not yet been successfully conquered, therefore we are unable to go back in time. I cannot become a minor, again.

Nice one! xD
Betchya this is going to track all of my activity in google chrome, moreover try to phish any codes/passwords and such.
Anyway, Thanks for the offer. I'm going to pass and I'm pretty sure everyone will, in this community.
418  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Market is still Green this month.What do you think? on: April 23, 2018, 07:46:51 AM
I think the organic growth has started for the crypto market as a whole.
The sudden boom at the start of the year was just an example of how volatile the market can be but this organic growth will surpass the previously held records of the cryptos.
419  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ✅✅[ANN][SKUNKHASH][MASTERNODE]🔥 !DEXTRO! 🔥[HIGH ROI][POW][POS][PRESALE]✅✅ on: April 23, 2018, 06:25:06 AM
The masternode appears to .25 Bitcoin per masternode (1000 coins that is $22 per coin). It has 25 millions max supply and there is no sense price a new coin for $22 without know the team members and roadmap.

ppl buying the MN for that amount of money will cry shortly after this coin will reach the exchanges. Guaranteed. A coin like this CAN NOT have a value higher than 0.0002 btc per coin

That's absolutely correct.
This has become a thing now, create a new coin, make an adequate website, presale a good amount of MNs and abandon the project. Rinse and repeat. The number of failed coins on masternode.online is staggering!

Will we receive this if we hold ETN already?

Oh yes, as stated in the main post. You'll receive the fork coins in 1:1 ratio the amount of ETN you hold in your wallet before the snapshot.
