CZ is trying his best to make sure BNB keeps pumping by pegging lots of coins. If, in the end, it was not pegged at all, then I can imagine how fucked up the user would be.

They need to use a better naming system, though. Every token comes up with a weird name.

I just tried to access the website and it's on maintenance. You guys might want to stabilize the website first before creating an announcement.

Yeah sure nobody can know what the next block nonce is, and thus it's 'fair,' but requiring a user to guess all four correctly is straight fucked up.

You should give them an option to guess one digit, two-digit, three-digit and so on. Don't be too greedy. No one is going to play a guaranteed-to-lose game.
424  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Hardware wallet help !!! on: October 18, 2019, 06:10:53 AM
I guess using your hardware wallet into someone else's device wont harm your wallet, it requires private key and also your PIN or your password you have set to your Ledger nano, I'm also sing one so I know it is safe. plugging it in into someone's device wont easily get your private key.

How can you sing with a Ledger?

Btw, why did you have to use a device that isn't yours in the first place? They might not be able to steal your private key directly but you'll expose your crypto ownership to others. I's as if you're saying "hey, got a bitcoin here, nobody want to steal it?"

pumping and dumping altcoins is grimy enough.

When you mention these, McAfee is probably one of the most prominent figures. Lots of scammy projects use his name with his consent (maybe he get millions of tokens for that) and encourage his follower to buy and pump it.

A few months later, the tokens are dead.
426  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you ever been stolen or lost your BTC? on: October 18, 2019, 05:31:28 AM
If the failed projects are considered to be a loss, then Definitely yes some in wrong transactions but only minimal amounts. specially in bounty hunting loss in effort.

I don't think a failed bounty gift count as losing your BTC. It's different because bounty tokens are bound to be worthless until proven otherwise. Which is why you should stop doing bounty here and there. Stick to sig campaign for a better result.

It would be better if the data is published and how they detect it. It's like saying you know everything but nobody else should know it.
428  Economy / Economics / Re: The 2nd generation of banking is going digital on: October 17, 2019, 04:51:26 PM
No body will use the next generation banking, they will slowly cease to exist all together, and Libra PayPal would take their place for all the financial need for the true next gen.

You're really optimistic. What is the reason? Libra is not even started yet and lots of their partners are withdrawing their support. US government can kill them anytime.

Digital banking is already here, Libra is way too weak to even compete with a local bank.
429  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Cat.ex exchange? on: October 17, 2019, 04:20:11 PM
Crypto-exchange checkers won't just scrap random data somewhere so there is a valid source.

As long as it is not CMC then that's true. CMC scrapper is terrible. They even list Vindax as the top exchange with a distinct wash trading.

I'd instead use Coingecko, their Trustscore is reliable, at least for now. It tracks the order book depth so you'll know the liquidity and not the (fake) adjusted volume.
430  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Script for e curency online on: October 17, 2019, 01:15:44 PM
You can ask a developer to build a website like Alfacashier, as I also doubt they're using a 3rd party script without any improvements (if they did).

Most reputable exchanges builds the code by themselves and scale it on their own so nobody knows what is the weakness of their code.

Also, they already provide exchange script to several good known crypto exchanges. Check here: https://www.epay.com/en/bitcoin.htm

So that's the reason why lots of anonymous centralized exchange keeps popping out of nowhere with the same design.

The core problem is not the medium of payment, but the people itself. Tools are just tools, sophisticated or not. Some will always find a way to use it for something wrong. What 'society' needs to do is to make sure people like that get caught or prevent somebody else from doing the same thing.

Education, inclusivity, and other social aspects must be good. Else, police will always have to work hard.
432  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Historical Data of Exchanges on: October 17, 2019, 12:14:15 PM
I found some links but it's not updated. For example https://data.bitcoinity.org/markets/volume/all?c=e&t=b.

You can also find data from Coingecko digital reports even though it will only give you a percentage difference between each month. IIRC Icoanalytics also release exchange related stats on a monthly basis.

Saran lainnya, mungkin juga bisa memberikan batasan nominal tertinggi jumlah pinjaman untuk beberapa waktu tertentu pada masing-masing peminjam. Mencontoh apa yang dilakukan oleh perbankan, limit bisa naik kalau terbukti bayar tepat waktu setelah beberapa pinjaman yang dilakukan.

Batas minim atau maksimal tidak ada yang punya wewenang untuk menentukannya, sifatnya tetap akan jadi saran. Para pemberi pinjaman harus bisa menilai sendiri apa mereka mau ngasih lending 1 BTC atau jumlah yang cukup besar lainnya, dengan berbagai pertimbangan masing-masing seperti kolateral, akun yang mau meminjam, apakah tau siapa orangnya dsm.

Kalau harus dibuat badan khusus nanti malah terlalu jauh intervensi sana-sini, padahal member itu bisa jadi ga punya kapabilitas seperti bank imo.

Btw mana nih lender atau yang mau ngutang, jangan terlalu banyak posting diskusi di sini tapi ga ngutang-ngutang.
434  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Exaggerating portfolio returns on: October 16, 2019, 01:06:51 PM
Are you suggesting you're looking for ideas to scam people? Please don't.

Why don't you open an account on eToro so that people can know your trading performance without looking at your trading history? Be transparent to some degree, don't lie and don't hide the fact if you can't make 100% ROI every month.
435  Economy / Economics / Re: Fiat Money Losing Worth, Bitcoin and Gold Getting Important on: October 16, 2019, 10:59:49 AM
the fall of the stock market will make investors look for alternative investments, namely gold and bitcoin. bitcoin and gold are good choices for investing because they are good storage devices. I am optimistic that the price of gold and bitcoin in the future will be even higher.

IIRC there is a study that said most people still believe that Bitcoin is a speculative asset. This means, if economics crumbles, then they won't store their wealth in Bitcoin. Gold is still the choice for a store of value, and the next one is land.

This might change with time but I don't think it can change that easily.
436  Economy / Economics / Re: BEEN IN THIS GAME FOR 6 YEARS on: October 16, 2019, 10:19:36 AM
Which fundamentals? I think, at the moment, the best use case for BTC is for international transfers. Developing countries could offer cheap services to developed countries without using WU or PayPal. It also works for remittance. Thus, asking people to buy 0.1 doesn't make sense.

Definitely true.

I use Bitcoin regularly to buy subscription packages from various porn e-commerce site. It's way cheaper than using my debit or credit card. It's really easy to do and I don't have to prepare a lot of paper works.
437  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Nexo - "Earn 8% dividend a year with no risks" on: October 16, 2019, 10:00:12 AM
Attractive or not depends on what you compare it. Let's stop doing pointless discussion because surely everyone can say X is better than Y while Z is better than X, and so on.

Instead of focusing on that, we should discuss whether this 8% is really possible and sustainable or not.
438  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: as a publisher paid for with bitcoin? on: October 16, 2019, 09:48:13 AM
Do you have recommendations for a better alternative that doesn't require a bajillion views monthly? Their payrates are pretty low although I noticed CPM on their sites (if you're aware).

Cointraffic is probably a better option. But if your website is really good, then Adsense would give you a better pay rate.
439  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Question for fellow Campaign Managers on: October 16, 2019, 09:08:12 AM
If there's a higher ranking member that wants in and is a quality poster, I don't see any reason to not give them the member slot if they're fine with the pay rate.

One of the possible reasons is that it will decrease the chance for lower-ranked members to participate in a campaign. But most managers won't do this if there is no good poster on that specific rank.

I once applied for a much lower rank just last year but the manager prefers a lower than a hero rank I just realized that when it comes to hiring a participants bounty manager always pick, the one that can follow rules and who can grasp the topic and post wisely and within the topic

It's obvious that Full Member with 200 earned merits is way better than a Sr. Member with no earned merits and most of the time only post 1 line garbage.
440  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi in Oxford English Dictionary on: October 15, 2019, 02:19:48 PM
I do hope the wikipedia will add satoshi in their online dictionary since what they have is bitcoin, satoshi nakamoto but not satoshi.

Which wikipedia you're using?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin#Units
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Satoshi_(unit)

That will make people who don't know can learn that word from dictionary. Simple and yes that is will give some impact in the future, maybe for our child who don't know cryptocurrency is exist.

If you know about crypto, the chance your kids know about crypto is higher. Oh, btw, I don't think you'll see Oxford as a mainstream book that everybody read.

That aside, I'm seeing cryptotalk everywhere.
