whats the timeline on a re-branding, noticed it on coin calendar but it just says Q4 or earlier, any place i can find more information on this?

Probably responding too a bot farming sig campaign post there buddy, but we do appreciate your sarcasm 

Heard Carlos was a paid actor, also heard there were several other actors promoting other people ref links (Craig Grant) on youtube.....man the extent people went to to get ref links is insane.

Although it wouldn't have surprised me to see Komodo on the list, Monero is doubtful IMO just because its inherently private no matter what. I think in the future monero will become more and more like a stigma especially to reputable investors. Nobody wants to be associated with a coin that could be the pillar of all illicit transactions.

Not saying it wont do well price wise, but thats just my opinion, there are alot of other ones they could have listed, maybe the writer didn't do a ton of research.

looks like its a script your trying to run to install it

first i would double check that you have all the dependencies

try just "make" instead of Xiden#make?

are you following a guide, one thing that is helpful is to check other coins guide's, a lot of the time you will learn more about the installation process by seeing how other coins are setup. Good luck

best thing is just to hit up the devs of the project

Would just like to add that if you are storing ETH or ERC20 tokens offline just with a private key that it is very insecure to be pasting your private key into MEW or My Crypto.

We have seen with the recent DNS attack on MyEtherWallet that this method can be risky, the best alternative is to get a hardware wallet like trezor or ledger nano that will connect with MEW/Mycrypto and then you sign and send transactions from the device and not pasting any private key into a website.

If you dont have hardware wallet or cant afford one, always make sure that the SSL certificate is valid in the top left of your browser before pasting priv key into mew of mycrypto.

kind of surprised this has been steady despite recent bear market, 70-75ksats seems to be a solid floor

85% block reward to MN though...could be a lot of owners just dumping anything above their 1k bitg....chart really doesn't look that bad, still weary to get in though

What do you mean by KPI? What is that?

Yes there is a lot less money in the markets then there were 6 months ago, but it makes sense, it's still very much a speculators market.

One thing I have noticed is that real businesses want to use blockchain in a way that doesn't involve a native crypto-currency...for example all of the companies that have joined the BiTA will probably use a standard built on hyperledger.

So Im with you in that what we are all holding now is used for nothing more that payments, and most of the time payments from you to exchange, back to you ect ect....most of crypto right now is vaporware unfortunately. Not one crypto is widely used in business/banking/finance yet.

A glimmer of hope and optimism from this recent article from the Nasdaq, Factom made it to the list as top 20 crypto's to invest in:

https://www.nasdaq.com/article/20-cryptocurrencies-to-bet-the-house-on-cm970332

Note that Tron and Verge were not on the list  

Disclaimer: I own ZERO ripple and wouldn't be long on it even if did.

But I do believe that Ripple and Stellar are great investments.

One key piece of news lately is that ripple was added to the hyperledger fabric framework, this is huge because I work at a at a very large company that is a member of the BITA organization and I will tell you that when it comes to logistics, they are not building with ethereum, its more hyperledger and R3

Dang Vivo.....masternode down to .08btc, $1.8/day 

Pretty brutal for the masternode holders, but it seems its been a market wide scenario. So many other masternode coins have followed this same market cycle, gobyte is a good example.

It's crazy how inflated masternode coins have become, seems like there are still several popping up everyday with nothing new just copy paste code with huge premine and crypto bridge listing.

They may not be open source for security reasons, hard to imagine its a scam when they already have that beta demo up and going.

If it is a scam its a pretty elaborate one with all the bounty and referral stuff implemented, I don't think it's a scam.

We are going to see many more exchanges coming around like this, offering their own ICO token similar to how binance did. Its good. We desperately need more professional exchanges in crypto.

Hard to trade altcoins with the goal of increasing $ amount, unless you don't care about the amount of bitcoin you have, I've never cared about dollar amount, only btc amount.

IMO when trading alts you should just be trying to pile up more bitcoin, we are all long on bitcoin anyways.

You already have a pretty good understanding from what you have said.

I think it's important to realize that crypto-currency is an emerging new asset class, it's hard to compare it to any existing assets.

Aside from that understanding the crypto markets is a whole different beast, these markets are brutal and are insanely volatile, my best advice would be to not invest anything that you are not willing to look at like a retirement account that you wont touch for years.

Wish you the best of luck, could be a good time to buy by the way, markets have really been dipping hard lately.

You cant be down that much, imagine if you bought your masternode in January or February 

Just hold and collect those rewards man, hopefully it will bottom out soon

Seems to be an overall market trend, getting pretty bad for almost 95% of all coins/tokens out there, all seem to be bleeding out unfortunately.

Hate to say it but we could see lower lows, especially if bitcoin goes sub 7k, hope that im wrong though

All of them are probably literally getting slaughtered right now, market overall is really bad 

Probably that the bear market is still real and maybe it's time to stop looking at it for a while...there has been soooo much over-exuberance from novice investors in this market over the past 5 months...

So much:

"The bear market is over!"

"Crypto market about to boom again!"

I still can't believe all the new youtubers who came out of nowhere in late 2017 who make these rediculous thumbnail videos shilling their coins, or mis-leading people saying the market will start to go up again on a certain month.

From my experience (4 years in crypto) the summer months are pretty bearish, it may take a long time for the crypto market to start going up again.

When I got into crypto in 2014 we had a 2 year straight bear market...I wouldn't be surprised if we see another one.

If there is ever a competing company to bitmain making similar ASICS, would that lighten all yall's hatred towards bitmain?

It just seems inevitable that eventually most POW coins will be dominated by some form of ASIC....

POS just makes more sense to me but I guess that is a separate debate.

The chart does look really good, it's near lows and there is way more upside potential then downside.

Besides the hackathon, there are now 21 Authority nodes that will be operational in the coming months. These nodes are different then just regular DPOS or masternodes, most of them are small companies and teams of 2-5 people that were hand selected by Factom Inc and the community because of their experience and proposals to better the protocol.

So things could start moving really fast since their are essentially 21 groups of people working to get real world use of the protocol rather than the 1 factom inc company.

This doesn't mean its the best time to buy though, you know how these markets are.....respond to hype and other shit rather than tech. Good luck

Zcash isn't fully private, there are 2 types of addresses in Zcash, T addresses and Z addresses, T addresses can be viewed on the blockchain and are transparent, the other type (Z addresses) are not view-able on the blockchain and so the funds would then be private.

I think at the moment gemini only has support for the transparent type of addresses. Unlike monero where all transactions are private it's kinda like privacy and anonymity in Zcash is optional. This is probably how they were able to get listed on gemini. Monero supporters cry about it but how can a fully regulated exchange exchange list something that is fully anonymous?

Someone please correct me if my information on the tech is wrong.
