4681  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dev and team, show some care on: July 25, 2020, 11:57:54 PM
...snip...
This has been always happening and actually no need to complain anymore. We are all bounty hunters who may have known about this happening several times. But let's see from a two-sides point of view.
1. Bounty hunter views
We have worked several weeks or months hardly to fulfill all the requirements by the BM as good as possible, avoiding spam posts and many others. But, in the middle of the campaign or at the end of the campaign, the rules changed. Well, actually they have noticed previously at the beginning that the team can change the T&C and we cannot complain for it. Moreover, after the end of the campaign, there are so many requirements addition to being given staring from KYC, fulfilling form, proof of work, and many others. And we must wait for months to get the rewards. And after waiting for months, we are excluded as the participants that accept the rewards. It hurts. Yeah, it really hurts and it may often happen so far.

2. Team perspective
However, aside from that, we must also see from the perspective of the team. They may have certain considerations why should tighten the rules and also T&C of claiming the rewards.
....So in conclusion, once you see these stats, it's hard to believe stuff around bounty. Especially when you see 10 accounts pming you, with same grammar mistakes Smiley
...
This is what I mean. they do this because of this kind of condition. there are so many multi-accounts that join in similar bounty campaigns and the team should clear of this. They have the data and they may also know the alt-accounts in their projects. therefore, they tighten the rules to get the rewards.

Although it may not be fair for other bounty participants that are actually honest, this is their real fact.

Moreover, after the bounty has ended, it doesn't mean that the program is ended. We must be also active to check and recheck the bounty thread announcement or in the telegram group to see the progress and also additional rules to be submitted or done by the bounty hunters. Commonly, many bounty hunters will leave the projects when it has ended and they will come back if they are no qualified for the rewards because they miss the information to do more things before the distribution.

I won 25,000 dollars and jetwin support sent me to some guy named Michaeljet on telegram who proceeded to try and extort me for .2 of bitcoin which is like 2000 dollars. I dont know how much 25,000 is in bitcoin or I would have wrote its translation.
Wow, you know, this is a very legit and big amount of the money. It is almost 3BTC (2 and more BTC). Is there really casino that will pay this high amount? is this the jackpot? And you must pay fees for the transactions and available for withdrawal?
Wait, it is very suspicious.
Everything when you need to transfer them money first to withdraw the rewards, NEVER BELIEVE IT. You must double and tripel checks the sites, rewards, and also seek for many mor information in this forum and others.

As what have many members here said, there were also some similar cases with Jetwin about this and they are accused as scammers.

So, whatever the condition, never transfer them first the money as fees. You are probably ebing scammed by them. Ince they have your money, they will be gone and will not be bakc to you. they will seek for other viticms to be.
4683  Economy / Economics / Re: Does Bitcoin Need To Scale on: July 25, 2020, 10:50:48 PM
Will this thing depend on each person or holder of the BTC and other assets whether they want to scale or not?
Bitcoin is interesting asset not only for hodl but also for trading. Let set aside the trading in this case and focus on hodl.
So far, Personally, I only have target of holding my BTC safely in the wallet. It depends son how I manage the asset so far. But importantly, they must be diversified.
1. For long term holding or investment, I think I need some ways to scale in what times or years I will hold the bitcoin, how many years, at least it should be more than 4 years, Why? I have no exact reason for this.  Grin Grin
2. Holding to get the target of reaching a certain amount of the BTC price. It may be safe enough and I need to disversify the selling tme of this BTC asset.

However, if it is discussed generally, we may not have any exact scales that can be the guidance for the price and also period. 
4684  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My Question to Crypto users about its security on: July 25, 2020, 10:31:59 PM
Crypto is praised as currency of future, 100% secured way of transaction. my question is how?
Well, yeah cryptocurrency is a secure way of investment. However, I don't think it may be the safest one because this is included in the technology and it may be hacked. but aside from this, cryptocurrency has great ideas and benefits.
They are easy for transactions around the world, quick transactions without waiting for days to make the certain transfer, not regulated by the government so that we can control our assets very well as we like. The crypto is also a worthy thing to invest and also trade. It has high volatility so that it can be utilized for trading, daily trader will really love this. And the increase of crypto price sometimes is very significant. We can hold the trusted and valuable cryptos for long-term investment. It wil be very worthy for us.

It may be what different to the stocks or even the currency on banks. However, it may also has certain disadvantages such as being lost because of hackers and others. And about the condition, if we die and nobody can claim our assets, we can manage it .
Personally, I save all data in my computer and also drive that can be accessed. In this case, I have no secret to my family so that if I die, there is another trusted family that can manage and take the crypto asset. Probably in the cyrpto world, we should have better other people that we really believe and this should be the intimate family, sibling, wife, husband, children, or parents. Although they may not know about this, after we die, they may aks the other trusted people to take care or to withdraw our assets.
4685  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Too dumb to undrstand on: July 25, 2020, 10:22:38 PM
Hey guys/gals, maybe I'm too dumb to understand how BC really works, but I just signed-up on a BC site and before I can purchase a few coins, I was asked for all my REAL information, including last 4 of my SS#, address, and even a bank account to link my BC account to!
Hello mate, actually you use the centralized exchange. well, in the centralized exchange, you commonly will be asked for your details proven by the ID data, card, and also all of the information needed. It is called as KYC and AML. This has been common in the big exchange, they will ask this kind of information. Actually commonly the exchange wil ensure that the data are safe and private enough so nobody can see your detailed information. but when you are doing any kind of transactions especially trading, other people will not know who you are. They are also no care about whom they are trading. they only sell and buy on the market so nobody cares about the identity.

Actually, there is a way or exchange that needs no KYC or AML. they are commonly called as decentralized exchange. COmmonly you have to sign up with certain email and confirm very simple data and also 2FA. In this case, you can use any kinds of email and also personal data. howver, many decentralized exchanges are not trusted enough. So, you must eb more careful when choosing them.
4686  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing in Life Insurance using Cryptocurrency on: July 24, 2020, 11:54:46 PM
Life insurance, actually, this is a thing that I mostly want to avoid. I know that life insurance is important, for insuring our life of course. Because we don't know what will happen to us and our family and we need certain life insurance. But, what happens in life insurance in my country seems to make me not interested in certain kinds of life insurance, moreover global insurance, it is about trust and eaisness for claim. Probably it is not because of the life insurance that is bad, but the system and also the sales or customer services that do not be honest when offering this insurance. many users are deceived with very legit insurance profits, but in fact they are gone when they are resigning and nobody can help the users. The users lost most money after paying for years and they cannot claim for it or use it easily as what said by the customer services. And they are only victims without any repayment. this may not for all insurance company, but I will better to aovid this.

However, if the use of blockchain tehcnoogy can support the insurance system Lips sealed to be more reliable, easier, and also really beneficial without any fraud, I think it can be. But, how to ensure the users about this when they are really new ith this blockchain technology? Moroever, it should be also certain training to the employees about this technology and system so that they explain the rigth to the customers.

Looks like @seiji-h never come back here after he said "I understand. I'm sorry" as the latest comment he made on July 22, 2020. I doubt he already thinks that studying BTC isn't the solution of his problem. And he instantly gives up and forgets to learn BTC. I don't know if he really wants to learn Bitcoin or just trying to get some BTC from the members of this forum. As he never introduces himself clearly and explains in detail what he exactly wants from learning BTC, I think we should suspect him. Therefore, I think this discussion has ended already as OP seems no longer need it.     
4688  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH Testnet finally less than 2 weeks, ETH Dominance 10%...Are YOU ready? on: July 24, 2020, 11:01:50 PM
10%+ Market Dominance....
$250  Broken....

Do I hear a starting gun? Or am I crazy?
Will this be the case like what happened to halving Bitcoin where price predictions were very high but have not yet been reached? Many experts predict the chance to make the market of ETH increase in certain percentage. Of cours,e it may have chance for it. however, it is no need to only pay attention or believe at all on the hype and also price prediction. Once you lay in the price prediction, you may hurt when it doesn't fit yet.
Personally, I also expect that the ETH testnet will really bring benefits and also easiness. However, I personally don't expect too much about the increasing market. if the price is really increasing, it is a bonus for me. But if not, I think that we should think about technology and future investment.

I'm still holding and waiting for its release to become stable. I wouldn't dump although I'm sure that there's going to be a dump after this positive that we're getting.
Become stable? Seriously? I don't think that ETH wil become stable. This will be still volatile although it may not high enough compared to the other coins in volatility. Therefore, better to make the market price increasing significantly although slowly but sure. That is our chocie whether to sell or hold this coin. In fact, ETH is much worthy coin to invest or even for traidng.
4689  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin might never reach it's ATH anymore on: July 24, 2020, 10:43:00 PM
Reading this, I remember about so many speculations of the BTC price after halving this year. Well, that is why I do not pay attention on such speculation at all. This is only for increasing mood, but too hope is not good, specially for me myself. So, better not to listen or pay attention to them,.

People should have a much more healthy approach to cryptocurrencies than "get rich quick" and should use bitcoin even if it was going to take 100 years (or eternity) to break ATH again.
I don't say all, but some people are still expecting like several years ago when the people could be rich overnight. In 2017-2018, we are sure that many people can be rich overnight by doing trading, with very high increase, the coins from ICO are increasing so legit. ANd many coins increased drastically in few periods.
But for now? it is a joke if thinking about getting rich quicly because eof this crypto easily. You may be rich quickly if you really know to do it, by daily trading is the ebst way. but, it is no instant. We must learn more how to be a good daily trader. Never hope too much about the ATH of BTC because of speculations. If we only trust in speculation, we will always feel bad of this because we don't meet our expectation. Beter to be reality and folow what market gives right now and take profits on it.
4690  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Freelancer get payed by Bitcoin? on: July 24, 2020, 10:33:23 PM
Everyone here is expecting to get payment with Bitcoin, of course, it is much worthy than paid in altcoins, moreover the new one. BTC is legit and everyone wants it.
but, what actually we forget is what we can do and how is our effort to get it. Some mistakes here are always asking for legit payment, but we do not want to struggle more and do more effort. Additionally, many of us are only asking here without any replying or even reading all the replies so that we do not know exactly what they suggets to us. Third, we always think that their suggestions may be difficult and not fit our skill and ability and then we leave it to another way. Four, we only wnat the easiest ways to get paid, without any effort. But remember it will not work right here. Everything needs efforts, skill, and ability. if we do not have that skill, we can learn.

And as what have been suggested by many members right here, I also do agree with them. but I don't know your skill and ability, do not know your efforts, so you yourself who can decide what you need and what you can. But never only hoep for legit without efforts.
1. See your potential, so you can position yourself to have jobs here. use google to seek for the website or company as a freelance that can accept BTC as payment. But beware of any scammers because they watch you. Never only tempted by the evry legit investment.
2. You can actually learn many things in this forum. As you are newbie, you shuld go to Beginners & Help to learn amny things about this forum.
3. if you ahve no skill as said by other members, you can try to rank up your account here and jioin in the signature or other campaign paid in BTC. of course it is not easy, but it doesn't mean that you can't. See, many newbies are here being rank up in several months. Everyone who struggles more with efforts can do it. The way is by learning more about this forum and what to do for good contribution so that you can exactly rank up and have a chance to join in campaign with BTC payment. But of course, you need more months to get it, this is your way of efforts.

Everyone that is willing to learn more in this forum will be always welcomed so warmly by the other memebrs, moreover, for those who are like to have more knowledge again and not too lazy for reading. We are all here for learning, no matter we are new or old member here. We must have willing to always learning because technology is always developing. I also still have a little knowledge about it and this forum really gives me worth things to learn and know.

Actually, currently, the transaction fee is going higher after halving. Well, but this becomes the issues that always BTC has, that is high transaction fee. But we don't have any chocie to avoid it. On the other hand, if we want our transaction faster processd, we should increase the transaction fees for some blocks. So that it will run faster. Before doing the transaction, commonly the platform also shows the fees and how many blcoks or estimates time they will take. You can set the custom fees on the platform or wallet in order to get the "Transactions Priority". Try to fulfil the fees higher than what already at taht time.
Quote
A transaction fee depends on two factors: the size (length in bytes) of the transaction; and the prevailing fee density. Fee density (sometimes referred to as “fee rate” or “feerate”) is a floating value that increases and decreases in response to network transaction volume. A fee density is usually expressed in terms of the number of satoshis required per byte of transaction data (satoshis/byte).

I notice when I transfer from my wallet to another person, the amount of bitcoin transferred will leave my wallet immediately, but it still take time to reach my friend wallet, where is the bitcoin at the time? Not in my wallet not in my friend's wallet.
It's on the blockahin through the mining process, isn't it?
You can check your transaction actually in some blockchain explorer in order to know the progress of Bitcoin confirmations. It si likely blockstream.info.

4692  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you estimate resilience of economy in your country? on: July 21, 2020, 09:35:01 PM
Well, actually it's not easy to say this. In my own country it might be more difficult to overcome the post-pandemic economy. Not only because of the very large population and also the broad reach of the territory in our country. Here, the economic capacity of the population is very diverse. there are still many people who are capable of a lower middle-class economy. And they are most victims of a pandemic. During this time our government has worked hard to help the lives of its inhabitants who are not capable and become unemployed during the pandemic. but this is only enough for food, not for other premier needs, especially tertiary.

I know this will be hard to overcome by our country because the conditions are so complicated. However, what is certain is that as citizens, we must also help each other to overcome and improve the economy. It's easy to do that by helping as much as possible, buying products made in the country, and promoting MSMEs.

It seems like I tell too much about the conditions in my country. From some of the news that I heard, the country that is the easiest to restore post-pandemic economic conditions might be China and Singapore. They are country that has also been affected by COVID-19 with many casualties. But they can build faster, both economically and healthily.

Do you mean the FutureCoin? This one?
https://futurocoin.com/
But, this coin is already listed in Coin Market Cap and CoinGecko althouigh it has low trading volume. but I'm surprised that the price is interesting, around $1.01 USD (increase +6.58%).
Check the details here:
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/futurocoin/
https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/futurocoin
I am not too exact think that it is the Futuro net, this one @coupable?

Well, whichever the project is, if indeed this is indicated to be a scam or proven to be a scam, it must indeed be tried. In this case the loss to the victims might be a bit cured. But when they are punished for the crimes they committed, can the victims' money be returned? Or lost because this is considered no longer a civil law but a criminal law?
2.5 years is probably the best decision from the court. However, for victims who have invested a lot of money and they did not get their money back, this is certainly unfair. What they want is of course their money back too.
4694  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Non-risky investments on: July 21, 2020, 08:59:30 PM
You won't find out non-risky investments in this world. There will be always risks even you invest in gold, land, or stablecoins. The risks aren't always about the fluctuation in prices but it is also probably related to security and the potential of price growth in the future. For example, the price of gold isn't always rising up but sometimes it is declining and not really different than crypto investment. While stablecoins, its price won't improve significantly, then we can't expect big profits by investing in that coins. Instead, maybe the price of stablecoins can drop once the value of USD decreases in the future. Also, investing in the land has a risk that the price can drop if we buy land in a bad location. This may happen and we probably don't get a profitable investment.
4695  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Never invest in any cryptocurrencies! on: July 21, 2020, 08:41:13 PM
I think most people approach crypto in the wrong way. With "get rich quick" approach.
If you come to crypto with such an attitude, you should never ever invest.
Unfortunately, it is the fact, buddy. Most of the people who invest in crypto have the same goal, it is how to earn profits immediately. But they don't really know how to invest in a proper way. Even, some of them don't care about the trends of crypto coins in the market. They don't understand that crypto coins are not always rising up its price but there is also time for them to drop its price. Well, people who have that attitude usually don't survive a long time in the crypto market. They may be last in crypto investment around 6 months, then they will quit because they think it is hard to be rich by investing in crypto.
4696  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: building a crypto criminal database on: July 21, 2020, 05:12:20 PM
This company in South Korea is figuring out that once a cyber criminal, always a cyber criminal.
You are right, once you are a cybercriminal, you will be always a cyber-criminal. Whatever the condition, cybercriminals always attack very simply. In my country, the criminal is caught and arrested after being a cybercriminal for several years previously. And he was arrested after doing that criminal in some years. So, does it mean that it is possible for the criminals to be caught and also arrested?

I believe that the way they use and transfer the BTC will never use their primary identification because it will sometimes need the account identification. It means that as long as they are use the centralized exchange, they may be revelaed.

4698  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IEO might soon become an history in crypto world soon on: July 20, 2020, 11:38:59 PM
A crowdfunding may be  expired in certain period. But for IEO, it may not end as soon as possible. SO far, IEO is better than ICO and it is mostly used for current new projects. However, we also cannot say that this is the best way because IEO may be not good if listing the coin/token in the small exchange with small trading volume It will not be good for the development of the coin/token itself. We can still say that IEO is worthy enough if it is listed at least in the moderate exchange that has good trading volume and at least listed on CMC.

Why?
Because, if we are offered a new coin listed in IEO, the first one to ask is "what exchange?".
IN this case,as long as the team chooses more to the good exchanges, I believe that IEO will still last longer. However, if most new projects only list the or new coins in small and not worthy exchange, be ready that it may end in several years or months.

TA may be good for finding entry and exit points for established coins, but not for finding which ones are going to moon next.
Well, yeah, it may be true. We cannot determine what coins will moon next by using one indicator or this kind of analysis.  Let's see what the technical analysis is:
Quote
Technical analysis is the study of statistical trends, collected from historical price and volume data, to identify opportunities for trade. Technical analysts observe patterns of price movements, trading signal and other analytical tools to evaluate the strength and weakness of an asset.
From this, we can see what is the aim of the technical analysis. This is one of ways that can help us to analyze the market in order to know the movement of the crypto. With this analysis, we can decide what we will do next, whether selling or buying the crypto in certain period. It is also to know the movement of uptrend, downtrend, and also sideways. Once more, this analysis is to analyze and research the market movement whether the analysis is true or not, exact or not, it will also depend on how you make the analysis. Sometimes, the analysis will work in someone to get profits for trading. However, sometimes, it will not work on other people. t may also be caused by the systems and also other indicators that are used.

Those people who give up or exit because of pandemic are too worried about their money and don't understand how to invest. Most of them are just people who want take profits instantly and never think about the process. I agree with you that this is actually the time to add more assets with many coins are decreasing their prices. Once the pandemic ends, the market has the chance to increase as Bitcoin basically continues the HYPE of halving effects. Many experts stated that the effects of current halving can be seen after several months or even a year after the halving day. It means the time is probably in 2021.  Wink
