4921  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain technology in universities on: May 15, 2020, 11:33:09 PM
Basically, Blockchain is probably available to be adopted for every sector industry and terms in this world. However, it will depend on the purpose of adoption that will be influential or not, will be a real case or not.

I have read some articles about the benefits of blockchain for universities or how blockchain help universities or college. Theoretically, the blockchain will help universities mostly probably for:

"Record-keeping"
From what I read, the most use case of blockchain technology for universities is using it for record-keeping. Blockchain can be used for credential verification for the colleges or universities in a large scope. In this case, the university may have a trusted and advanced blockchain platform to verify the identity of their students or graduates from any place, around the world. It is done by using the technical integration of blockchain technology. The university can provide the blockchain platform for document verification to verify students' identity details, data, academic records, certificates, recruitment process, and also other records. The platform is probably also connected to other institutions such as the government, other colleges, banks, corporates, publishers, and other parties. of course, it may be differentiated from the menu of intern data. But at least, there are other menus provided for the features.

The scheme:


By using this record-keeping, they will give some advantages:
1. reduce paper uses
2. More effective and efficient
3. Can be accessed easier by students or graduates, lecturers, and other parties in relation to the record and activities
4. Anti-fraud protection

However, in this case, the developer must ensure the security of the platform because it will include all data or records that are very crucial and sensitive. Without a high-security system, it will mean less.

Actually, there are still some benefits theoretically of the blockchain for universities. However, the problem now is that can this really occur and run well? What kind of universities suitable for using this kind of blockchain platform? Can it be really effective?

Seriously? 100% guaranteed win? Does it mean that there is no loss in that game?
I never find this kind of gambling so far. If it is true, you must be very rich right now because you have practiced first and made your kind of words as proof of your success.
personally, every gambling will be interested when there is still a chance to win and lose. Lost in gambling may be as usual, and we can enjoy how the process of losing and gaining. So, we can re-arrange our method and trying to make a good choice of gambling portion again.

So, if it is said that:
At this moment we also are looking for people that have a lot of knowledge of horse racing, NBA, NHL and NFL to become part of our group and start betting risk-free.
Are you marketing about that? Is this scam? Or only a legit offering? personally, I do not think that it really happens because it is so strange. Guaranteed, risk-free. It is likely not the characteristics of gambling.
4923  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Be a professional gambler on your own way. on: May 15, 2020, 10:50:13 PM
There are some gamblers who believe in superstition. Every time you watch or read something about gambling, the hero of the story goes on a winning streak as soon they bet on their lucky number, or keep a lucky clover close to their heart.
Does it really make sense that luck is very important in gambling? Additionally, about superstition, unfortunately in my country, there are still many people who believe in this superstition when playing gambling. They are searching for the lucky number or things outside of our reality or mind. It is strange to believe in such different things, superstition. But, however this is their belief and we should know and understand about it.
Personally, I do not believe in the superstition.

.. he needed only two things to beat the house: good skills and a plan. ..
Same here, we cannot really put our trust only on luck. There should be efforts to become rich. There must be a way if someone trying hard. As here, good skils can be got from learning from experience, people's experience, analysis, and also lesson in every match or gambling. So, it will lead to having better skill in gambling. Additionally, plan is required to make our strategies or skill completed enough. The plan should be managed properly in order to understand exactly what should be done during gambling and what kind of decision to take at that time.
4924  Local / Altcoins (Bahasa Indonesia) / [Share & Diskusi] China Ingin mengintegrasikan 5G dan Blockchain on: May 15, 2020, 04:24:28 PM
Baru-baru ini saya membaca artikel tentang integrasi 5G dan blockchain yang sedang direncanakan oleh Perusahaan Telekomunikasi Tiongkok. Berita ini menurut saya cukup menarik, ya jaringan 5G memang sedang digencarkan terlebih untuk tahun 2020 ini. Apalagi jika diintegrasikan dengan teknologi blockchain, ini bisa menjadi sesuatu yang lebih menarik lagi. Seperti yang kita ketahui, China memang sedang gencar-gencarnya melakukan adopsi teknologi blockchain di beberapa sektor. Padahal beberapa tahun yang lalu, China sendiri masih memberlakukan larangan yang absolut terhadap cryptocurrency, namun seiring perkembangannya, justru blockchain menjadi salah satu fokus utama negara tersebut.
Terlebih lagi setelah pernyataan dari presiden Xi Jinping pada saat di sesi Komite Politbiro, dia mengatakan bahwa:
Quote
“KITA HARUS MENGAMBIL BLOCKCHAIN SEBAGAI TEROBOSAN PENTING UNTUK INOVASI INDEPENDEN TEKNOLOGI INTI, MEMPERJELAS ARAH UTAMA, MENINGKATKAN INVESTASI, FOKUS PADA SEJUMLAH TEKNOLOGI UTAMA, DAN MEMPERCEPAT PENGEMBANGAN BLOCKCHAIN DAN INOVASI INDUSTRI.”
Negara ini menjadi semakin terbuka terhadap adopsi teknologi blockchain di berbagai sektor, dan telekomunikasi ini akan menjadi salah satunya.

#Seperti apa jaringan 5G itu? Apa menariknya?
Transformasi jaringan internet telah berkembang seiring berjalannya waktu mulai dari jaringan 2G, 3G, 4G, dan kini yang terbaru 5G. Transformasi ini sudah dimulai sejak tahun 1991 yaitu dengan jaringan 2G. Dan yang terbaru pada jaringan 5G tentunya kita bisa menikmati jaringan internet yang super duper lebih cepat dong.
Quote
Teknologi 5G ini pun ada dengan mengkombinasikan jaringan-jaringan yang sudah ada seperti GSM, Wi-Fi, LTE, hingga teknologi radio access.

Teknologi jaringan 5G ini sendiri nantinya akan memberikan kecepatan yang lebih tinggi dan kapasitas yang lebih besar dibandingkan 4G tentunya. Bayangkan saja, saat ini kita berada di jaringan 4G atau LTE dengan kecepatan yang cukup tinggi. Dan jaringan 5G ini diperkirakan akan lebih cepat 3x lipat dibandingkan dengan 4G. Rate download pada jaringan 5G ini dapat mencapai kira-kira hingga 20G/bits serta rate upload sekitar 10G/bits. Cukup menarik, bukan?

#Memangnya, apa sih keunggulan jaringan 5G?
Setidaknya ada 3 keunggulan dari jaringan 5G ini, yaitu:
1. Kecepatan internet yang sangat cepat mencapai 20G/secs dan rata-ratanya jaringan tersebut bisa mencapai 100 MB/sec.
2. Lebih hemat energi serta biaya yang rendah, yaitu dengan bertambahnya kecepatan jaringan maka akan lebih menghemat energi dan biaya, efisiensi jaringan, serta menambah atau meningkatkan kapasitas sistem.
3. Meningkatkan aplikasi Internet of Things (IoT).

#Rencana China untuk mengintegrasikan jaringan 5G dengan blockchain?
Jaringan 5G ini sudah resmi meluncur di China awal November 2019 silam. Peluncuran tersebut diberitakan bahwa penerapan jaringan 5G di China menjadi yang paling besar di Dunia.
Perusahaan telekomunikasi Tiongkok ini memang mengakui bahwa saat ini, teknologi blockchain sangatlah unggul dan akan cukup bagus untuk diintegrasikan dengan teknologi 5G. Kepala Blockchain dan Digital Economy Joint Laboratory di China Telecom, Jiang Wei, mengatakan bahwa teknologi Blockchain itu sendiri mampu berperan secara signifikan dalam meningkatkan jaringan 5G. Beberapa di antaranya yaitu:

1. Berkaitan dengan sistem manajemen yang tentunya lebih terpercaya, adanya interaksi yang lebih aman, serta berbagai kolaborasi yang lebih efisien di antara berbagai pengguna perangkat dan jaringan tersebut.
2. Blockchain dalam lanskap 5G juga bisa memperkenalkan modal sosialnya. Ini juga bisa berperan di industri untuk melakukan crowdsource infrastruktur jaringan 5G.
3. Wei yakin bahwa blockchain mampu membantu untuk mewujudkan pembagian sumber daya di 5G dan pelacakan penggunaan dengan baik.
4. Eksperimen China Telkom dengan blockchain dilakukan juga untuk meningkatkan layanan dan kinerja roaming internasional.

Intinya sih:
Quote
"Blockchain Membuat 5G lebih mulus dan nyaman"

#Rintangan Integrasi Blockchain dan 5G
Seperti berbagai perencanaan lainnya, ini juga masih terdapat beberapa rintangan. Salah satunya yang terbesar yaitu terkait keamanan dari Smart Contract dan juga legalitas. Menurut perspektif desainnya sendiri, smart contract untuk ini tidak bisa ditingkatkan atau diperbaiki. Sehingga harus ada formulasi khusus untuk menjadi solusi standar dalam perbaikan serta pembaharuan bug.
Akan tetapi, mereka percaya bahwa dengan kerjasama dari berbagai pihak dan eksperimen yang dilakukan secara tepat, maka integrasi Blockchain dan 5G ini bisa membuat layanan komunikasi menjadi lebih baik baik lokal maupun secara global.


Point yang ingin saya diskusikan:
1. Bagaimana menurut agan-agan semua tentang upaya China mengintegrasikan 5G dan Blockchain ini?
2. Apakah integrasi 5G dan Blockchain adalah sesuatu yang mungkin dan tepat untuk dilakukan?
3. Mungkinkah pernyataan Xi Jinping di atas dan uji coba integrasi 5G dan Blockchain ini menjadi signal bahwa China akan mendukung hal-hal yang berkaitan dengan Blockchain, termasuk dunia crypto?


NB:
- Dipersilahkan untuk memberikan informasi tambahan, terutama jika ada update terbaru
- Diskusi, feedback, dan juga saran terhadap thread dipersilahkan

Terima kasih atas dukungan semuanya.

4925  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The market does not respect anyone on: May 14, 2020, 11:54:45 PM
This is the crypto market, not an institution where there should be "respectful". And I think no one needs that respect f there is. Everyone in the market only needs to take profits, buy low sell high, and take many more profits again. Who need that respect?  Grin Grin

However, when you are a whale with a high amount, you may not have respect from others. but, you may have more power to influence the market. But, of course, this is only a little bit because there are also many other whales that are competing to influence the market. In this case, not respect that becomes the issue. But, how the way we can follow and survive from the market situation, moreover if we are newbies, small traders, or even a long term holder.  
4926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did Covid-19 affect crypto gambling? on: May 14, 2020, 11:47:55 PM
As you know, Covid-19 caused serious economic problems in the whole world, and a lot of industries got affected even indirectly, simply because people may now have less money to spend.

Do you think crypto gambling is one of such industries?
The answer is yes. There are some reasons why the gambling industry also becomes one of the sectors that are influenced or affected by this pandemic.
1. There are so many offline casinos closed during this pandemic. It reduces the income for many parties; the owners, people working there, the environment around casinos, and also the gamblers itself.
2. Many gamblers cannot come to the casino to play, willing to win but they are not laying. Probably it does not only influence their financial system but also their physiology. Moreover, they are addicted to gambling.
3. Online gambling sites are now more popular. Many gamblers come to or switch to online gambling to keep playing gambling. It may be different enough from the offline casinos, but at least, they can still play them.
4927  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 2 Bitcoin price questions on: May 14, 2020, 11:40:49 PM
1) Who determines its value? Markets? What kind of markets? Big companies like blockchain.com ?
The first thing to know is what gives the Bitcoin value? There is no one controlling this and it is decentralized? Well, it is related to supply and demand. The supply of Bitcoin is limited, only 21M. It is also not all that is in the circulating supply, only some of them. Moreover, some of them are not mined yet, so, the supply right now is so limited. While on the other hand, the demand for BTC is exactly high. Moreover, in this technology era, many people are willing to put their money in BTC because of its interesting and promising characteristics. In fact, many more people want BTC. The supply and demand will always be there, more demand, the price or value will be higher.

However, as we know that the price of the BTC is very volatile. It depends on the market, yeah. The price depends on the market, and it is stated that there is no one can control the price of the market. Probably true that somebody may not be able to control the price in the market. But, what about some people who have a big amount of BTC that play the market? It is possible to influence and control the market of BTC.

How is it getting embed on websites? If you google "bitcoin" you will see its price. This number must be set by a person, right?
If you are talking about the display of the Bitcoin price on google search, there are some parties that provide the data. The price on google search for USD rate is by "Morningstar for Currency & Coinbase for Cryptocurrency".
You can also find such kind of Bitcoin price and market tracker on some tracker websites. They are such as Coin Market Cap, CoinGecko, and others.

Bisa jadi dengan itu, bisa meminimalisir jumlah calon investor yang berpotensi kena apes gara-gara proyek Digitalbits ini. Kalau dalam pandangan saya, sekali tim proyek itu tidak komit dengan apa yang dijanjikannya, maka sulit untuk percaya itu proyek legit.

Apakah screenshoot percakapan cukup gan ? Kita punya dari awal mereka janji sampe skrg
Saya kira bisa dibilang cukup, apalagi agan save beberapa percakapan semenjak dari awal. Untuk proof lain, mungkin saja bisa ditambahkan oleh peserta bounty yang senasib dengan agan. Apa agan dengan bounty hunter lainnya yang senasib join disitu pernah membahas mau mengumpulkan "proof" untuk buka thread di board scam accusation? Komunikasi aja dengan hunter lainnya gan.

4929  Other / Meta / Re: Few changes base on my own observations to be implemented on bitcointalk forum on: May 13, 2020, 11:59:01 PM
1. LEGENDARIES REWARDS OVER QUALITY POST
Being a legendary rank with many merits proves that the member is a high-quality member. It is not only about the number of merits, but we can see that the member gives many positive contributions to this forum, and it is much appreciated. And for this, we can also know their reward or appreciation on the BPIP website, where there are some medals with different categories, one of them is the rank of "most merited".
Submitting posts and checking to get giveaway? Who will do that? There will be so many posts and should check the posts submitted? We may not imagine how many posts will be submitted for this. And the reward of that giveaway? WIll be BTC? Or what? Who will give the reward? I still do not have any idea about it.

Quote
2. MERITS:
..........
and for the low rankers ( Low Rankers Merit GIVE-AWAY for the post made over the week)
......
Probably complicated and will make the works so long to check one by one the posts. I think that the merit system right now, how they give and get the merits are already fine and no problem when there is a qualified post, give merit.
Additionally, there are actually some merit giveaways that will give you merits for the members with some certain rules. And the members should check regularly on the Meta board or Beginners&Help board. You may find the merit GA over there.

Quote
3. BOUNTY CAMPAIGN TASK SUBMISSION:
I think that every Bounty Manager has its own standard and rules related to this. It will depend on each BM. But well yeah, I also think that it is better not to see the social media reports on the thread or someone posts. It is actually better to submit it via google form as you say. I agree with this. However, sometimes, some moderators may need to up their bounty thread, and submitting the reports on their thread every week probably one of the ways to rise up the thread again and again.
4930  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I need your help guys! on: May 13, 2020, 11:46:25 PM
I'm not sure about this, but this site seems suspicious. At least, there are some indicators:
1. There is no team displayed on the website. So, we cannot check whether the people are exactly fake or not. This is strange if that kind of platform will not display their at least the CEO and also the main team including the advisors.
2. Check on their social media. I can only find their Facebook, but there is no activity, no regular posting on their Facebook. We cannot also find any other social media such as at least telegram, twitter, discord, and some others.
3. Anyone here can find their whitepaper? Or we can only get the WP after logging in? Well, this is also strange because they do not provide any WP or even lite paper. Whereas, this thing is very important to let us know more about the project.
 
So may doubtful things in the dxrcointrade project. There are only promising ways that the users can get on the platform. Therefore, I will not believe or trust this site at all Redflag for this.
4931  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel this pressure on physical gambling? on: May 13, 2020, 11:35:42 PM
In physical gambling (whether it's a big casino or just small gambling), do pressure on your opponents or playmates actually happen?
For many people, it will give influence, whether small or much in pressuring especially the mental psychologically. At least, there will be some conditions where you may fee like:
1. You should focus more on your playing, while there are many people around you. Moreover, a game matched or competing with other people. The pressure is the biggest obstacle because you may lose your focus.
2. The pressure will happen moreover if we think that our chance to win is very low, it may make you feel so stressed during the game.
3. The pressure comes from the opponent that is at least he is more experienced, confident, competent, and calmers than us. It will really press us at all.
4. When you cannot manage or control your emotion better than the opponent, you will feel stressed and pressed at all.

The pressure that we feel is actually normal. However, when physical gambling, should we follow the pressure? Should pressure beat us so deeply, although not playing yet? No, the answer is no. Whether we just feel the pressure, trying to be calmer and more focus only on the game is the best situation. You may not be able to win at that moment, but, it doesn't mean that you must get depressed and pressure on that. emotional and risk Management is important at these.

So this game is like poker but it has a few differences.

in Teen Patti, each player is dealt with three cards face-down in a clockwise manner.

I never play this. But when searching, I found some platforms

1. Bodog Casino online.
It receives Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin SV. The review shows that this is a leading game platform by PaiWangLuo Network. You can read the review on :
- https://professionalrakeback.com/bodog-review , or
- https://www.gamblingsites.org/reviews/bodog/

2. http://bitcoin-poker.ws/

3. https://bitcoin3patti.com/

I do not know whether these two other sites are exactly reputable or not. But, they also provide Teen Patti game and receive BTC payment. Probably you need to search for more information about those platforms. Before playing, please research again the platform to decrease the risks. I only share these but I do not guarantee that they are legit.

The amount of reward obtained is "0.69" BTC. This number is not small and you still believe in a scam like this?
Logically, which GA would give a gift of more than 0.5 BTC? They are crazy. There is no such good party, LOL.
Of course, the number of gifts received was already very suspicious. Do you still do tempted to do it too? This is not a new way of scam, this is the old way of giving super lucrative gifts in an easy and instant way. So, never believe in this kind of old scam.

And here is their point:


They will ask you to deposit that many amounts of BTC and you still do it? So suspicious!
NEVER BELIEVE on GA that order you to deposit first, whatever, and however the amount of the reward.

I've been around the crypto scene since pre 2013 pump. Been around blackcoin pumps, pinkcoin pumps (all the color coin pumps), all the country-coin pumps (remember those?), every shitcoin known to man.
Wow, it has been so long. You must know how exactly BTC and crypto is. Personally, I know about crypto was in 2017, almost at the end of the year. I wis I was you to know crypto earlier. But, I do not need to reglet  Grin Grin

---snip---
There may be some points to have:
1. Self-control
It may be very difficult to control ourself, our emotional, and also our thought in the crypto world. Moreover, there is so many disturbance that can attract ourself and make us lost control. here, controlling ourselves is willing to sell, buy, invest, trade or a gamble is important. We may not be greedy, but we may also not be too afraid to take the risk. As long as we have known the ways to control our money, our asset of crypto, and also ourself, we may have better consideration, thinking, and also emotion (including "panic" as the worst thing that I ever had in the past).

2. Risk management
This is also very crucial to have in the crypto world, risk management. It may include in positioning the size (enter amount and also risk amount), Ratio of Risk or Reward, Stop Loss and Take Profit, Diversification (how many to hold, sell, buy), and include the personal attitude of the risks.

3. Chance taking moment
This is based on how we should take the chance at the right moment. It may be difficult. But it may relate to our strategy, thought, and also our best consideration to take the chance even in the limited moment.

Personally, I still make money from crypto by joining the signature campaign with the BTC payment rate and also doing small trading. Of course, loss and profits have become so usual for me. But, as long as we can manage it, I don't mind it too much. I'm not a big fan of gambling, so I only playing gambling when I really want to. But, it doesn't make me spend much money. Only certain coins on the online casino platforms that I sometimes follow.

4937  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible that number of miners will decrease for a while? on: May 11, 2020, 10:28:16 PM
Isn't the number of Bitcoin miners already going down since the bear market? Or is it rising now?
At a time when the price of BTC was already very low, while mining operational costs jumped high, many miners then took a break and chose not to continue mining again. This is done because the outcome is bigger than the income.

With the recent halving of block rewards, the incentive will be lower than previous for miner.
And after halving later, the amount of BTC that can be filtered will decrease. And there is a possibility that if it is operational normally it will rise again. If the number of coins mined decreases, the price of BTC goes down, while operational costs go up, then what is likely to happen is a reduction in the number of miners.

See. most members in this thread also consider that there will be a decrease amount of the miners after the halving. Personally I also think yes, it will decrease.  However, who knows? Crypto is sometimes full of surprise and we do not know what kind of surprise we will face in the later moment.

Personally, I also do some of these following strategies sin this pandemic era.

And regarding to the ways to face this global crisis, it may happen during and post this COVID-19. Money management is very important to be done for the shake of our life endurance survival. MOney management may include some terms such in the followings:
Quote
1. Maximize Your Liquid Savings
We can maximize our funds on the Cash accounts, not doing long-term investment yet. This will help most in the financial crisis.
Quote
2. Make a Budget
It is also very crucial to know the income and outcome every month during this pandemic. So, we must arrange and make the budget clearly and safely in order to have a smaller outcome than income.
Quote
3. Prepare to Minimize Your Monthly Bills
It may be difficult, but this is also one of the ways. Where we can minimize the monthly bills in order to save more money. Check the monthly bills that you have and try to minimize the outcome of the monthly bills that are possible.

4. Look for Ways to Earn Extra Cash
It may be difficult to be done, moreover many people are out of the job. However, there are still some ways to earn money from various ways such as working online like in this forum? Well, this is actually and honestly my biggest income so far during the pandemic and lockdown era.

They must have a certain strategy, for example making the panic market to make the small trader or investor panic sell at the down price, Of course, it can happen so easily because most of them hold the market.
They have many BTC, they are not too difficult to control the price in the market.

Selling at the down price can lead to the others following. Then, they will make a net on the dip, gaining many BTC at a cheap price. then, after BTC halving (even some months or later), the price will go up, boom.

Could this be alright after halving happened?
Be calm, the halving is still 1 day 3 hours and more. Many price predictions are available in the crypto world. However, whatever and whichever that you believe, never be panic. Panic sell only will make you lose your funds and profits. Be sure that you will be more patient and waiting for the market recovery again. Who knows that the market will be green soon only in one day? Everything can happen. So, never panic.

In this coronavirus pandemic, the best thing to do is staying at home with physical distancing. It is for some reasons, the most is to stop or avoid the spreading of this virus. And about the casino to be opened during this pandemic, personally, I prefer not to go to the casino for the shake of my life and family health. I can still play gambling in the online casinos and it is quite the same if we only meant to gamble. However, if we want to feel the ambiance of the casino, with that kind of crowded people and music or sounds, you must go to the casinos.
Here, related to how about opening casino with certain restriction:
Do you think it's possible for gambling casinos to open now with enhanced restriction and customized set up, what do you think?
Well, `can the casinos` ensure that the people coming in the casino are not infected by coronavirus? If they can ensure, it is possible. However, if they cannot, it is surely too risky to open it. For, the casino may give the distanced gaming slot and area. However, every touched area by the affected people may spread the virus easily to the people in that place. So, it is too risky.
