This is a 5-10 year play. It's about the technology not price. Stop looking at price as indicator of progress. We all need to buckle down for the long haul and extend long term support

If it's about the technology, then it's already failed. But price wise it can still recover and even go to its ATH @$1.1k-$1.2k by the end of 2015.

what's Jinn? I didn't grasp this yet

You need to follow the link in the OP and read on it, it's too long to explain here.

On the contrary, it's hard to convince people that Bitcoin is decentralized now after Ghash owned 51%-53% of its hashrate back in June, and probably continues to own half or more of its hashrate now disguised at other mining addresses, or do you think they switched off part of their equipment and decided they should lose on their investment? Think again.

Which is the current "price per share" of Jinn? I heard it scalated quickly...

Threshold price is @60 NXT now, it looks like it's stabilized at this price, so maybe this is it.

Ok, some people here still doesn't understand what doge is.

A pump and dump sheme, with no future,no innovation... Its going back, like last time, and replay... This is not even serious to break the market and bring serious people.

No future plan, no ETA damn. Only few merchant.

Let me guess, you missed the rocket too? Smiley
526  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DOGE @ 100! Much wow! but i missed it! on: September 26, 2014, 04:17:43 PM
but now is 3 times more, and might be 1 times more soon. so $50 or $150.

Pro-tip: Doge is in a pump and dump. I can more or less guarantee that it will be falling hard very soon. It has already passed the psychological barrier of 100 sats, and looks like it already could have peaked at 116. Don't say I didn't warn ya.

I can guarantee you can't guarantee anything there Smiley

Doge's too low, it has a lot of ground to cover to catch up to Litecoin.

you create a chain longer than the current chain from the block where you still had the coin in your wallet. Done.

See? Told ya, it's as easy as taking crap in the morning. Anyone and their mama can do it Smiley

I don't get it, how do you attack with your 51% stake if you sold it before the attack?

You just can, trust him. He heard it somewhere Smiley

And why is it different this time, if I may ask Huh

A lot has changed, many moons have passed Smiley
531  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency many coin - v1.8 Required Update on: September 26, 2014, 12:53:53 PM
I am happy for DOGE (I always liked DOGE), but I can't help being a little bearish.
I remember what happen last time the DOGE block reward halved... it was a bloodbath.

This time is different Smiley

Nobody wants to jump on our sinking ship Undecided

There is a way out of this sinking ship though.
533  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The era of easy money IPO's over? on: September 25, 2014, 05:28:26 PM
I invested in a couple of IPO's in the last month and both have lost me money. Wondering if this era of making money in IPO's is over. Either they are crap and no one invests or lots of people invest and their is a rush for exists as soon as it hits an exchange.

Which ones did you invest in?
534  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Another Alibaba moment on NXT AE? on: September 25, 2014, 04:24:20 PM
I never used the NXT AE before. If I wanted to buy Jinn would there be a big time delay between buying into a sell order on and getting my Jinn? Is it slower than a normal exchange?

When your buy order price matches the sell order price, the execution takes as long as the next block arrives ~2 min. But Jinn is a Dutch auction sale, you can put in a buy order now, but it will be executed only when they run the sale order. More info at that link in the OP.

PoS implementation of NXT is a completely different algo than the PoS implementation of Blackcoin or Peercoin that this document refers to.
NXT is open-source and has been achieving distributed consensus for 10 months now Smiley
This document is irrelevant.

Phrased my question wrong, sorry.
If NXT is not using PoW, do they use PoS or something else?

PoS.

Exactly, most of them have nothing to do with technology. If it has nothng to do with technology, then it's just a personal dislike for how things look, personal = subjective. There are thousands of users who obviously like how things look and don't have a problem with all those listed issues. It would be more natural for Jeff to argue on the basis of technical merits or faults, as he is also a software engineer.
538  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2014-09-18] Bitcoin Core Developer Jeff Garzik Believes NXT is a “Scamcoin” on: September 25, 2014, 10:17:32 AM
The more interesting part is that people get upset because NXT is called a scam with a list of reasons, yet people only discuss if it should be called scam or not, not if the reasons are correct or not.

The thing is those who call NXT a scam don't know how to discuss, because they haven't read the whitepaper. And when someone asks them to prove their point, having no technical knowledge on how things operate, they repeat 'scam, scam' or roll around the old Nothing-at-stake argument which is not even relevant for NXT implementation of PoS, as this term was coined for Peercoin's PoS, which is a completely different PoS algo. They just bunch together all different implementations of PoS and call it scam without giving it any thought, you can't even come close to discussing reasons with these people Smiley

Nice answer. NXT is a "cryptocurrency + other functions." Catchy.

Put it in your sig Smiley
540  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin is officially dead on: September 25, 2014, 07:59:47 AM
I like to stay on 2013 Smiley

If people preferred to stay in the past and not move on to advance technologies, there'd never be Bitcoin in the first place, no Internet, etc. It's funny how Bitcoin adopters consider themselves progressive individuals, but at the same time are stuck in their beliefs. How is that progressive? Technology is all about moving forward, not staying on one spot, thinking you're the king of the hill. It's so funny to observe though Smiley
