4101  Economy / Economics / Re: Further adoption of Blockchain | Estonia's case on: December 15, 2021, 06:14:47 PM
The country’s adoption of digitization does not mean that it should adopt blockchain or cryptos (Bitcoin.) It is not a network upgrade like the 5G network or a real technical development.
Also, the use of the blockchain has no real benefit in many financial, agricultural and other aspects, but rather the use of less efficiency in many areas and the highest efficiency in financial aspects and decentralized economy.

I have not heard that Estonia has adopted Bitcoin or will rely on Bitcoin to conduct transactions in the future.
Thus, they should not anticipate the blockchain to prove that they are technologically advanced.
4102  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase having technical difficulties on: December 15, 2021, 05:50:13 PM
I don't know if Coinbase traders make money after this glitch? If they bought those coins recently before the glitch it could trigger a stop limit or sell their coins at a higher price?
It seems that users are the ones who will pay these errors, and therefore it is strange that the platform remained silent in previous cases, and may be silent now.
I have read in a previous case (Coinbase customers demand refunds over GYEN stablecoin glitch[1]) that the transactions at that moment have been frozen for several hours and therefore all losses in those moments will be borne by the user.

As for other losses, the company must bear them, but in some previous cases, no one get refunded.

will quote some comments:

Quote
"The coin skyrocketed, somehow it went up to $151,309 in my account. As anyone would say, holy s---. I thought I need to get his out of here immediately because at any point it could drop back to nothing," he said.

Quote
They held my money ransom for two weeks. I could have invested in other coins and had potential gains," Fleming said. "They need to give some solid, concrete answers, and they need to refund every single person who invested in this and lost money."

Quote
"Once [Coinbase] realized they had made a mistake, they locked everyone else to protect themselves," Peacock said. "My real investment was my real investment."

4103  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Need Help for transaction fees on: December 15, 2021, 05:27:37 PM
I know that the fees is low in the address. But the reason is that I do not have enough money to withdraw them. If there is anyone to donate a little amount then I will be able to withdraw otherwise these amount will be there for lifetime.

Your account is new and therefore it is difficult to trust you to send a certain amount of ETH, for example 5 dollars, to you to be able to withdraw those currencies. Therefore, you have two options:

 - Wait until network fees go down: It may take a few days, but it will happen sooner or later.
 - Sending the private key to a trusted member: Here you trust that member, who will send some Ethereum, sell those coins/tokens, and send the rest to you. (He will take a percentage and you should trust him)

In the future, use a cheaper network such as Polygon.
4104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: My coins percentage down on: December 15, 2021, 04:54:41 PM
Is the drop percentage different from popular cryptocurrency tracking sites like coingecko[1] or cryptowat.ch? Because during the past two days, CMC website (which many wallets depend on) was giving wrong prices for many Altcoins.

If the prices are the same, what happened is a 20% - 30% drop of Bitcoin price, and therefore most altcoins are affected by the correction in the price of Bitcoin.

The altcoin market generally works by following the fluctuations of bitcoin, but every currency has a different pattern of fluctuations, and some currencies may give crazy highs that are difficult to predict (if it have a small MarketCap or listed in a few exchange or limited volumes) which mean great loss or great loss.

4105  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDC-USDT flippening on: December 15, 2021, 04:28:04 PM
Personally, if I make a quick comparison between USDC-USDT, I will find the following:

 - USDC: More reliable, they have more reporting, but they are not listed on many platforms.
 - USDT: It is listed on many platforms, but there is no real proof of its value, although it still holds the value of 1 USD == 1 USDT.

Thus, making sure that every dollar in Teller is a real dollar is no longer a problem because we all know that they do not have enough money to cover the printed assets, but nevertheless, the persistence of the value at one dollar is the most important.

In general, if USDC manages to be listed on several platforms, They will flipping USDT fast (donot compare MarketCap it will change when many exchange listed USDC)
4106  Other / Meta / Re: Share your thoughts and opinions on: December 12, 2021, 02:01:30 PM
I don't know what is the link between science/knowledge and signature campaigns? Because it can be achieved by participating in signature campaigns, and given that the forum is multi-country, a 300$/month may be enough to live a good life in one of the countries and thus a full-time job (if we ignore the increase that comes from price volatility.)

The question may be as good as continuing to study a master/PHD's or working hard to buy bitcoin because its value will increase.
But knowledge and money can be gained by sharing opinions and developing skills, signature campaigns can help you with that.
4107  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Desktop Crypto Tracker on: December 12, 2021, 01:37:34 PM
Future update:
- diagrams and comparisons
The next updates will be good and may give many a compelling reason to download, but I would have liked the lists and charts to be similar to what ---> https://cryptowat.ch/charts/KRAKEN:BTC-USD is showing.
There are many windows that show the charts, which you can control their width, height or position, so the user can compare between many charts and styles.

Also, if there are technical tips or links to video tutorials, they will be useful.

In the future, the user can link to the platform using APIs and trade directly or set alerts and others. In general, your tracker may make it better than browsers trackers.
4108  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Desktop Crypto Tracker on: December 11, 2021, 01:46:52 PM
An interesting project, I liked to download it, but:

 - Dark Mode Please.
 - The design needs more work: I don't know, but it looks a bit old and doesn't have a lot of diagrams and comparisons.
 - Creativity: There are a lot of sites that provide the tracking feature without the risk of installing anything, so you will need to add more features.
 - Dark Mode Please.
 - Portable mode: If possible, it will be fine.
 - Dark Mode Please.

Then we can download and compare the performance/speed of updates.
4109  Economy / Services / Re: Looking for someone to create a high-level standard presale announcement on: December 11, 2021, 01:08:55 PM
by "high-level standard presale announcement" you mean " ICO ANN Drop"? Generally it is a service ---->Services (Bitcoin payment) or Marketplace (Altcoins)  and therefore you need someone to formulate the speech in a way that attracts customers, and then a graphic designer to carry out some paid campaigns for translation, promotion and others.

It means that you are looking for someone who provides such services and you can find him here.

you can find some designers here ----> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2727673.0 ( Its a bit outdated)

Some people may use such “valid addresses” to send a message via the blockchain in exchange for sending a small “non-refundable” amount to those addresses whose cost is often higher than dust transactions.

I remember when Twitter accounts were hacked a message was sent like  { Just Read All Transaction Outputs As Text You Take Risk When Use Bitcoin For Your Twitter Game Bitcoin is Traceable Why Not Monero} which cost 0.00116291 BTC or $56.17 (current price) and (0.5 dollar per each text)

No one will be able to send money from those addresses, and a site may archive it and try to sell it under the name "Bitcoin Anonymous Messages".
4111  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: Polyx Platform: Trade and Store Cryptocurrency! on: December 11, 2021, 11:49:13 AM
I ran into some problems when I visited the site using Brave's browser:

 - A lot of the buttons don't work until I close Brave shields.
 - I tried to do "fast trading" but I was asked to create an account.
 - When I try to create an account I get a " invalid Data" error (used@gmail.com email and strong/weak password.)


I don't know what is the problem? But I have tried several times.

Also, price updating is not done in real time.
4112  Other / Meta / Re: Would be nice to have a dedicated space to exchange on the NFTs? :) on: December 11, 2021, 10:56:38 AM
Hi Support,
Any chance to add a section dedicated to the NFTs?
What ongoing technical discussions can we have about NFTs? I don't know but some technical articles will suffice and then some of topics about NFTs that sold for a few hundred dollars but there are no new topics or issues that others can bring up for NFT's use.

Most of the platforms are centralized and have a graphical interface that makes the user do not need any technical experience.

Also, SMF fourm design is outdated that will not support buying/selling NFTs.
4113  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Please, help me understand. on: December 10, 2021, 12:54:45 PM
All your answers will be in a science called "opportunity cost[1] [2]." What you are looking for is called real profit and not accounting profit, as you think about several parties to achieve the maximum possible return from profit, a feature that is for those who studied the market carefully and then put their plan into a strategy that may not work with All and you need experience to be profitable.

This experience is for investors who have spent a lot of time, but you can start learning, it is not difficult, but you must realize that every loss is a profit opportunity if you make good use of it.

4114  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [WARNING] A Phising Site From a FAKE Telegram Account of Quickswap on: December 10, 2021, 12:21:37 PM
Thanks for the warning, but Telegram started fighting such scams, so report them and you will get a quick response.
The problem is the ease and speed of creating such channels and adding huge numbers of subscribers easily. Therefore, it is better to modify the settings to prevent others from adding you to groups.
Also, the search option is bad for those who want to search for the official group.
4115  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ukrainian oligarch is mining Bitcoin on: December 10, 2021, 12:10:46 PM
I do not think that someone who bought all these devices and bought the land and electricity costs would be with the aim of evading taxes, we are talking about an income of about half a million dollars a month or 6 million dollars a year, and with the possibility of an increase in the price of bitcoin, this income may easily double within a short period.

Perhaps someone who has enough experience has transferred his equipment from China to another country, but the government’s regulation of such business will be easy because it is easy to track the average consumption of electricity or who buys solar energy devices in large quantities, so the role of regulation, and imposing taxes will not be difficult.
4116  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin a tool for self freedom and actualisations. on: December 10, 2021, 11:27:26 AM
Personally, I see Bitcoin as a tool to break the need to trust a third party to transfer money and therefore you do not need to trust a close friend, a bank, or any third party service to do these things for you.
Previously, you had to do it personally using gold or cash (trusting the government) or using a central network that you had no control over.

Bitcoin gave users this option, but financial and other freedom is dependent on the way the individual treats and behaves. Even if he has 1,000 bitcoins, if he does not have sufficient financial intelligence, it is a matter of time when all this money may disappear.

So, Bitcoin is P2P e-money.
4117  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Reviews for Ascendex exchange? on: December 10, 2021, 10:55:03 AM
What I look for in the platform is the negative reviews, the response of the support team to them, their logicality, their agreement to the terms of use and their integration with the user.
If there are no negative evaluations, this is a very negative and dangerous sign.

Then the trading volumes and how true they are, the liquidity, the withdrawal and the deposit, and then I can test the platform.

KYC will happen sooner or later, but if the platform cares about customers, it should not stipulate that the deposits will be confiscated, but rather give the user an opportunity to withdraw them and thus freeze the depositors’ funds, whatever the problem is (unless there is a judicial or executive order)

Frankly, at the moment, your platform does not offer something perfect or unique that you force others to use, and therefore it will be an option when other platforms impose KYC.
4118  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: VISA expands their crypto business strategy to Banks on: December 10, 2021, 10:31:21 AM
They are trying to exploit the assumption that Bitcoin fees are high and therefore their network is ideal for thousands of transfers per second and take advantage of the constantly high price of Bitcoin, which is a good reserve currency for the middle and poor class.

If the Lightning Network succeeds and there is more awareness of how Bitcoin and decentralization work, we will not need such solutions.

Banks will still play the role of lenders that will try to collect more bitcoins (if bitcoins succeed)
4119  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Ledger Card Honeypot on: December 10, 2021, 09:59:28 AM
Does anyone know whether the company is obliged to disclose all the data of customers who buy their devices, since providing banking services means providing some data, or is the company’s departments separate (them hardware wallets devices data will not effected)?

Overall, if a platform like Binance didn't succeed in promoting these cards, I don't think Ledger would, but at least this may be the general trend in the future (Bitcoin as a central reserve, second networks instead of the main Bitcoin network).
4120  Economy / Economics / Re: how realistic is this: create own big crypto trading platform with own USDA on: December 10, 2021, 09:40:36 AM
For me, all this sound sketchy and very far from the original intent of creating a coin that offers certainty and trustless exchanges.
I do not think that manipulating the price of Bitcoin will be easy, but rather volatile, because there are about 90% of the supply in unknown hands and it can be added to the market to control any insane rise in prices or vice versa. Therefore, for large whales and platforms, price manipulation in the medium and short term is very possible.

There are also more than a million bitcoins that we may not know who owns them.

Tether (USDT) is a compromise solution for traders and even if it is not present, the platforms will find a way to fix the price.
