5161  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Music streaming services which accept crypto? on: February 01, 2020, 08:53:13 AM
there are many crypto/music projects before and yes one of them was viberate  . i recognize it but i forgot the name of the others.
It was music related project but not a music streaming service. It is for locating and buying tickets to local concerts and programs.

Quote
its hard to compete with the music industries knowing that there are now giants like spotify and youtube too  .
both big platforms are popular and free   , so people will usually end up on here than searching for other unpopular alternatives  .  though these platforms offers premium subsricption too and would be better if they suport crypto payments  .
I am not really bullish about any music related cryptocurrency project. End of the day every music content is pirated like anything next to movies. Again like I said in my previous post, the bitcoin users are majorly associated with the bittorrent and p2p concepts. So they are not going to pay very likely unless someone is passionate to support the musicians.
5162  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: (Bustabit) How often do long streaks of red come? on: January 31, 2020, 09:01:12 AM
Does anyone have any idea how often let's say 15-20 red streak come and go? Would like people who have somewhat of an idea, thanks!
First thing first, bustabit is a legit site and it is not specific to them. If you create a similar algorithm yourself and try that then also the probability to having a red streak on a certain multiplier is mathematically found but that is again a probable outcome  or the most commonly seen outcomes. It may not be the same when you play and in rare cases you might find that the outcome is not close the calculated result.

I have tried the Seuntjie's dicebot !odds command on Primedice and Stake chatrooms. It gives you an idea of when the red streak will come but again it is not absolute. But I am yet to see any commands from Seuntjie for how long the streak may be.

This according to me dependent on your luck. You may get a nice green streak on a high multiplier (be sure to stop when this happens and cash the profit) OR, you may get a huge red streak on a very small multiplier.
5163  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Quiet Bounty Time on: January 31, 2020, 08:54:51 AM
Bounty section on this forum is now very quiet compare to last year, why is that? Now that bull run is in motion what is stopping new developers from releasing their project?
Bull market pushed some vaporware, that is correct and the craze was big at that time. Currently the market is in a slow phase of movements and that is attributable to the less activity in bounty section. Added to this is the fact that many ICOs towards the later part of the 2017-18 failed to reach any good financial support level.

Quote
Or maybe they don't have any more idea?
They never actually did have any. It was mostly hype. Dont think that people have learnt a lesson. They will be back like dogs again when market becomes bullish to commit the same mistakes and lose more money.

Quote
Even scam projects are greatly reduced
This I disagree. Scammers are always there since time immemorial.
5164  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Crypto Talk on: January 31, 2020, 08:51:38 AM
What is cryptotalk.org and why is it on everyone's profile?
CT is the forum of yobit, one of the abominations of exchanges out in this market. Good for dumping your shitcoins if you are a bounty spammer. They were running a campaign which ended this last week and now you will see a gradual decrease in their signatures because the participants will move to other signatures. Not everyone was in it though, but many users were taking part in it.

Quote
Is it like bitcointalk and does it also have campaigns?
Fellow bitcointalk user, you need to understand that the biggest traffic share for the bitcoin users is this forum and so other smaller and newly created forums want to predate the traffic from this forum. Not the opposite way. The CT forum is a breeding ground for spamming and spammers get paid to spam. So if you are into spamming to get paid, go there.
5165  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO legalities in 2020? on: January 31, 2020, 08:45:25 AM
Agree, if now we want to invest in the Crypto world we better invest in the top coins like ETH, EOS or BNB.
Wrong. The best investment for long term is bitcoin and for short term is any shitcoin that you like, specially the ones you mentioned with the high probability of BNB being a ponzi as in borderline ponzi and EOS being a complete shitcoin with no real usage that is commendable to bitcoin or even close to it.

Quote
The ICO world is dead now, many people no longer believe in ICO projects, and although now it is trending with the IEO project but I see it does not make investors interested to invest.
LOL, IEO is just a rebranding of ICO. Since these people who are wannabe venture capitalists are looking for new method to lose their money the people running the ICOs (read, scams disguised as coin offerings) renamed ICO>IEO to make people forget the bead effects and bad name of IEO. It actually fooled a lot of the investors who are too dumb to use their brains.

Seriously, a threat?
If you were going to need money you would not feel it as a threat but handle it logically, which you have failed to do so.

Quote
Negative internet points from a forum that's getting too old to even understand NFT?
Your conclusion of why negative trust might be given is wrong. Asking a non-collateral loan from an account with no prior trade feedback is risky. It is done to alert newbies from getting scammed.

Quote
By all means, sink my account to hell with negative trust. I ain't no locking this account.
Of course, you are a troll. Cheesy

Quote
Oh, before I start receiving such “negative trust”, two things: I'll save this to the internet archive, as it's the most hilarious threat I've received,
Attention-whore much?

Quote
and the other thing: you want a high ROI without the risk. There's a name for that.
Visit your local bank an pawn some valuable if you have any if you are in dire need.

I have heard that platforms like Celsius and Nexo are giving out loans for altcoins as collateral. Not sure if NFTs are accepted there. Now use your sane judgement: if they dont accept NFTs as collateral what make you think p2p lenders here would?
5167  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Air, Water, Bitcoin on: January 30, 2020, 08:09:23 AM
Sure, bitcoin ain't there yet. Opperative word being 'yet'.
Sure more things aint there? Is it? You can keep speculating and thinking more and more but you would be wasting time because you are not the ones developing bitcoin core. What needs more work in the adoption of bitcoin use by public and merchants accepting bitcoin. This is still very cultish and needs more honest entrepreneurs and not shitcoins that are pump and dump. Apart from the fact that it is rare to find such projects.

Quote
The internet itself is still relatively young and evolving rapidly.
Is that not applicable to everything that you can think of? Your judgement is clouded by biased opinions. Not saying that bitcoin would not be big, but the mode of making a conclusion from your side is wrong.
5168  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Minimizing the risk- How much possible it is? on: January 30, 2020, 08:03:17 AM
I definitely agreed to you sir, were Ethereum is not a shitcoin, it was one of the promising altcoins actually in the market of cryptocurrency.
And one of the most useful platform too in terms of every new project arises in this field of business of crypto as well. Sometimes, we need to be very careful in bestowing like this things here in the forum.
Look, its a subjective opinion. For someone who managed to sell ethereum at the proper time and make money it is not a shitcoin. For someone who was stubborn enough to hodl during a drop would believe it is a shitcoin. Thing is one can hold bitcoin for long periods of time and then sell at good profit but would not be the same with other coins.

Back to the OP, I think you should be careful like I said in my previous comment. You cannot trust anyone on this market and this I cannot stress enough. The site you are speaking of, may just be making up stuff and trying to pump some coin at the expense of another coin. Good luck making money from watching them.
5169  Economy / Exchanges / Re: BITTREX account HACKED - having 2FA ON on: January 29, 2020, 11:38:58 AM
No. A different story would happen if the hacker got the key that was used to bind the 2FA. But, I'm not sure if OP is stupid enough to give away that to a random site even if it looks identical to Bittrex website. After all, no exchange would request your 2FA key again if you login from a new IP.
What if the OP did give away the 30-60 second key to the phishing site? More than once maybe? Does that give the hacker enough data as to compute the next 2FA code? It is recommended not to "give" your 2FA to a fraud caller - similar is the case here if you draw an analogy as the phishing site as a fraud caller.

Once the hacker has that the login id is already given away and so they have complete access the account.
5170  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How often do you gamble? on: January 29, 2020, 07:22:36 AM
there were times that I lose control of the hour, sometimes I spend 3 hours to the most when I am winning and it's my lucky day, I usually spend an hour to gamble and minimal funds this is to keep up with my favorite platform and while taking my time in my posts gap, and I can say that I'm not really into gambling only in my spare time.
I think you are doing fine with gambling as long you are not spending too much time on it. All you need to do now is to do a bankroll management. Do not spend more than 10% of your bankroll and keep track of how much you are spending on gambling. What you need to avoid is chasing losses. Remember that you are gambling to have fun and not chase out losses that you have made, but accept them. That should help you decide whether you want to continue gambling or not.

I think this type of self-policing would help prevent becoming addicted to gambling. Dont forget to take care of household chores and work smoothly too.
5171  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Uber or Airbnb running on bitcoin on: January 29, 2020, 07:04:02 AM
10 years have gone by since bitcoin was introduced and yet it is not in a position to become mainstream currency.
But mainstream projects like Uber and Airbnb as this topic discusses are not interested in them. It would be a huge bullish news if such was to happen and besides the fact that some altcoin projects started on similar businesses there has not been much of a traction in this sector with crypto payments.
Quote
Either bitcoin has not much potential to become a mainstream currency or there is too much opposing power of fiat and local governments who try every tactics to discourage the use of bitcoin as a currency.
Sure but you can ask your bitcoin seller/buyer to exchange bitcoin to fiat and use that to pay for Uber but it thus becomes a two-step process and that is what is not the proper design. Still it is the closest we can get if we want to use bitcoin only for all transactions which is itself a challenge.

Maybe in future we will see more ride-sharing apps that develop their own blockchain and then you can pay that crypto to hail a cab.
5172  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Can i coin bounty camping on: January 29, 2020, 06:56:02 AM
You have abused bounties using more than one account. That is cheating. How do you even expect yourself to be accepted in a campaign then you have been proven to cheat them of the bounty funds that are not rightfully yours?

You have some balls coming up here with this question. Shows that you did not learn from your mistakes and neither are you willing to stop these bad habits. You could post in "Reputation" if you wanted to appeal for your red trust but I am 100% sure these will not be removed.

Now dont come saying you did not know that using more than one account would get you red trust. You were dishonest and you have to suffer for that.
5173  Economy / Exchanges / Re: BITTREX account HACKED - having 2FA ON on: January 29, 2020, 06:52:37 AM
yes I contacting with Bittrex. They conducted an investigation in 2 hours,
2 Hours, that is pretty fast considering the time I have seen beign posted here from internal investigations on exchanges.

Quote
accused me of having probably visited a phishing site,
"Probably" visited? Can you provide the source of this information? 2FA should protect from phishing sites. If you get phished you lose your login credentials.

Does anybody know if inserting 2FA on the phishing site allows the phishing site to decrypt the algorithm of the number generation?

Quote
said that they were very sorry and asked not to disturb them anymore...but didn’t explain how thieves walked around 2FA... huge disappointment
Sorry for your loss but if you got phished then the fault does lie on your side to some extent. Bottom line is that you should bookmark these sites before you start using them and nothing really done about the money even if you are telling the truth.
5174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: two gambling games that are players favorite on: January 28, 2020, 06:04:38 AM
Poker and dice both are good games and there are more chances to win specially if you are skilled and you know the games well.
For poker yes not for dice. Dice is an EV- game and your skills are least important there. Luck is the only factor that matter in dice and also other EV- games like slots, plinko, basically all the casino games that you see full of colours and music.

Quote
We should first learn the game then should choose to gamble. I have some betting skills on games like cricket etc,  playing cards is also one of attractive game for me to gamble I enjoy it while
Sports betting is EV+ so it need skills. Good thing you are learning it. Keep your own excel spreadsheet to analyze games and predict outcomes first in a dummy sheet before moving to real money to bet. It takes time know the curve but it need a lot of homework.

Card games, some are EV- like blackjack and some EV+ like poker. Learn them first before you play.
5175  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Minimizing the risk- How much possible it is? on: January 28, 2020, 05:59:41 AM
I actually do not trust this "predictor" site to give out correlations without knowing the algorithm behind it. Do you have any idea what algorithm they might be using? Unless I know that I wont use it. Also if I know that then I would probably learn how to apply it myself. Grin

Get my point? You cant always use these methods to mitigate risks. The best way to mitigate the risk is invest in those altcoins that you know (not feel) have a reason to go up in price and demand. Sadly 99% of altcoins dont have any method to generate a market demand and thus they die out.

To be completely honest, I do not prefer to go for the altcoins at all. Keeping the focus on bitcoin and using a dollar cost averaging on bitcoin to buy and sell at proper low and high respectively is what I feel minimizes risks.
5176  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoins Bounty Hunters are almost alone! on: January 28, 2020, 05:54:14 AM
I think it will be good if we can have the rule to be paying all hunters with trading tokens and not a future promise that the dev team might even ignore the road map and failing to deliver the product as expected.
So you expect to be paid something and not nothing at all? Then they may very well pay you some shitcoins of no value after the project has completed  its bounty promotions. See there is no difference in hunting for zero value coins and then claiming to be the owner of some must-pay contract. The bounty hunter has to accept the fact that the tokens are useless and thus move on from them. Unless there comes a system of regulation, which is not likely there will be similar projects making a fool of every hunter.

Why not go for the bitcoin paying campaigns?
5177  Economy / Economics / Re: Stance on bitcoin's effect towards the Global Economy on: January 28, 2020, 05:49:08 AM
I think bitcoin's role is very important in times of economic crisis.
If and only if there is an economic crisis do you think bitcoin will survive its effect? Its price will also fall. That vague popular idea that people will move money to crypto became popular sometime back due to some FUD shilling but it has no casual proof.

Quote
Have you seen the similarity between bitcoin and gold?
No. Because there is no simmilarity as such if you consider economic system. They are both investments and carry market risk but that is all.

Quote
even here we can dep our bitcoins on exchanges and trade freely, not bound by anything. The market is always active so many people are now looking to buy more bitcoin to prepare for the upcoming economic downturn.
The number of people trading has got no effect on the economic crisis as you state. This is because the total number of users who trade bitcoin are much small than the total number of people who are wall street stock investors. They are the ones who control the rest of the economy and the fraction of it under cryptocurrency is still small to make any difference.
5178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UK gamblers cannot use Credit Cards for gambling from April 14, 2020 on: January 27, 2020, 07:42:13 AM
Such a correct decision that is needed to be implemented in more countries all over the world.
It is a great way to protect people from losing all their money in gambling spots. Wealth is protected along with economic stability.
You know the reason why people get attracted to something that is forbidden? It the curiosity that why they are forbidden to do something. That is why censorship never works. Being open minded and allowing people to know things and decide for themselves is more healthy even though the bad effect can be dire in this approach.

Removing credit card payment from gambling would not stop gambling but increase it because those who are gamblers will not be able to douse the fire in them for gambling addiction. So they will go for more circumvention methods. Maybe they will go for bitcoin or seek a overseas dealer and pay them to deposit money on their account.
5179  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: New Body Of Control? on: January 27, 2020, 07:37:44 AM
If we were to go to a 100% bitcoin currency system. The banks and governments would loose control of whole financial system. The present governments would loose control.
Thing is that you are constructing this thought on the basis that fiat existed and banks controlled them and then bitcoin came in. But this is unrealistic however optimistic we become. Bitcoin being the only mode of transacting would take a long time for the people to accept and use.

Then again banks are way more clever than us. They know how the tables can be turned and they may end up being pro-bitcoin with the actual thought of being the big whales of bitcoin. Nobody knows what will happen in future but bitcoin will be a cult system for now.
5180  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Transaction in PENDING STATUS ?? on: January 27, 2020, 07:34:17 AM
Unable to obtain my coins...RECEUIVE tab says PENDING
Check the "History" tab. Which is the first tab from the left. All your transactions both receiving and sending are listed there.

Even if the transaction is not yet confirmed it will be listed in the History tab. Receive tab is only for the receiving address that you send the person who is going to send you coins. That address will receive the coins.

What version of Electrum are you using?
