Please don't waste your time with this crap. The app doesn't mine. I never got my airdrop so there is no transaction and you need to make one apparently to start mining.
The app looks nothing like it does in the screenshots from the googleplay store.

Install it and look for yourself. It's utter shit.
562  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty hunting is past it's glory days on: August 30, 2019, 04:53:26 PM
I blame hunters for supporting shit. Everyone wants to blame everything else. There is still money to be made bounty hunting. It is just a lot harder since people are tired of investing in scams or projects that just suck.
I think people were very greedy when ICO first started. They must have thought it was easy money. Now that people have realised it doesn't work that way they spend their investment elsewhere.

My experience so far with bounty this year have been bad and it is not as profitable as it used to be. Mainly bounty hunters don't really get good projects that will pay and those that pay just pay a penny which is not worth the time and energy put into the work.
My question is, is it possible to still make a living from bounty or we should just move on from it?
Bounty is dying with ICO, sadly but it's true. You can see that currently, only IEO can attract investors, and such projects are almost no marketing needed when the the exchanges will do it for them. Current projects focus on funding from institution, venture capitals, they do not conduct ICO so bounty so it is not necessary.
I see just some tasks for hunters like doing community, but it required a lot of effort.

There will always be bounty. Now it is just IEO and not as much ICO. I think it is better and at least you know the tokens will be listed. What projects are you talking about that have exchanges do the adverising for them?? How will an exchange advertise here or use twitter and other social media?
563  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: TAUCOIN MOBILE MINING THE 2019 CRYPTO PROJECT OF THE YEAR on: August 30, 2019, 04:46:56 PM
Could someone explain to me how mobile mining could work? I understand it technically, but if everyone could mine on his mobile phone, who will then buy it? Similiar problem has Electroneum, after a short hype it is now a dead coin.

It doesn't seem to work. You need to get the airdrop so you can have a transaction then you must spend it on mining power and then begin mining. The problem is none of these options are there like they show on the google store screenshots. Nothing is explained either. I think this is just a waste of time. I was excited about it but not anymore.
564  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: TAUCOIN MOBILE MINING THE 2019 CRYPTO PROJECT OF THE YEAR on: August 30, 2019, 08:34:06 AM
One the 2nd day of mobile mining turning on, we have got 1400 miners.
In the crypto world, not many people having experiences of true mining which is verifying transaction on global blockchain. I think we did it in taucoin.
We decided to start with slow main-net speed to make sure it is stable. Then we will implement ipfs sharding on it.

Wow. I nearly forgot about taucoin. I thought the project was dead. I had some taucoin from a bounty and the initial mobile wallet did nothing.
Glad to hear mobile mining has been started. I'd go and give it a try. I believe the future is for mobile based tokens.
Kudos.....

Whoever don't believe a real mobile mining is happening, can give a try, its free, just your time and data to sign up and have initial TAU bonus to help you make some tx, any mining power above 0 is able to mine and receive reward from tx.

The app is very light, almost no impact on phone's CPU (0.01%-0.5%) during mining activities, my phone is on since mining started 25th may till now, almost 12 days, phone very cool, awesome.

See here, with TAUcoin, your phone can verify global Blockchain transactions, its truly happening and ppl make profit with.

You have to apparently send a transaction and then use those coins to increase mining then you can mine. I see no option but I am still waiting for the airdrop transaction to go through.
The app doesn't have an interface like the one shown so I am confused. It doesn't look the screenshots on google play.

True crypto users don't need to pay much tax since they do not "cash out" their coins for fiat, thus no tax to pay and the beauty of bitcoin. The IRS sound like thugs coming to get their "protection" money.
Love how they act like paying tax is the most important thing ever and moral bound, when you see how they waste it. If it wasn't about money noone would care. It has nothing to do with morals.

Alright, I will join and have a look. There airdrops there so more earning for an incentive to join. Most places give nothing.
I have a problem. I am folding with a laptop to test it out and the CPU works just fine and doesn't over stress it so I could mine with it and not worry about stressing the laptop. The GPU stops and starts and never gains progress. After a while it stays stopped. I am not sure what is going on. I have a 1060 6gb Has anyone else had this trouble before?

Why are there not more people posting here and showing interest? You mine and not only get currency as per usual but you also help fight one of the desieses you choose. I chose to fight cancer.
I hope this coin does well so I make a nice profit while helping out. This project actually has substance and people should support it.

This scam is old. I get these all the time. I don't use paypal so... Anyone falling for this is stupid and greedy. You can't get a refund on something you never bought. DOH!!

Awareness has increased, making the probability of success of such scams success less than 1%.
This type of scam is considered an old school of fraud, but ignoring such links will not help to limit them. Report them.
You can report:

 - Bitcointalk ----> Report to moderator  ----> Phishing Page/URL
 - Report Phishing Page -----> https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/?hl=en
 - Gmail account ----> click the 3 dot menu ----> click "Report phishing."

1% is a lot. That would be plenty of people falling for it. More like 0.0001% Maybe less. They send thousands of these emails daily. They use clickbait like money-back offers, refunds, special deals only for "you" not available elsewhere and stuff like that.

Where did you find out this info? Those figures look inflated to me. I am happy about it, we need investors. Let us hope the investors educate themselves properly and don't feed scams. Many projects will be in need of help.
Legit projects that succeed will push us further and further towards where we want to go and having actual working projects running on the blockchain.
571  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: be ware of the airdrop forms on: July 29, 2019, 05:32:49 PM
Most of these airdrops are fake and have no Ann thread or website or anything. Don't trust those ones. They will send you these scam emails and also sell your emails on a email list. This is why you must always use a differnt email address for different things. You can even use a separate eth address for airdrops only. I recommend that since it massively reduces your risk of loss. Thanks for warning people though. It is a good reminder for all users not just new ones.
572  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KYC defeats the purpose of Crypto. Thoughts anyone? on: July 29, 2019, 05:28:41 PM
There is no "being on the safe side" each country has different rules and decent exchange will have a daily limit of say 1 or 2 btc. Anything less then that is ridiculous. If you want to unlock the daily limit then you need KYC.
Then you get people who want your KYC just to use their exchange or put such a small limit. Get it in their heads that money laundry is done in mass not in small amounts. Just making things irritating for your regular users.
573  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BUYBACK TOKENS SOLVES DUMPING on: July 24, 2019, 05:35:20 PM
I think if a project is so weak it gets tanked by bounty hunters dumping then it is not a good project to begin with. Think about it. A good dev team would be so sure about their project that they would not even see dumping as a problem.

Blame the project for failing and the people who support scams instead of good projects. If the money went to good projects instead of scams things will go a lot smoother.
574  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: KYC Requirement for Bounty Managers before they require KYC to bounty hunters. on: July 24, 2019, 05:32:49 PM
Noone should be asking you for your KYC in the first place. They don't use official KYC companies that will protect your data. YOu giving your KYC directly to the dev and thats a big no no.

Projects asking for KYC stay away from. Even ICO that want KYC is ridiculous.

If you ever have to give your KYC it will be to somewhere like localbitcoins. Localbitcoins has a proper KYC company that keeps peoples info safe. localbitcoins do not see the KYC only the KYC company. Only one pair of eyes ever see your info. Once you pass that is it. You done forever.
575  Economy / Speculation / Re: How much do you think the President’s recent comments have hurt bitcoin prices? on: July 22, 2019, 09:51:30 PM
When he tweeted it, there was no effect on price whatsoever. There are probably other reasons for current dump, and not that tweet.

Yes, coincidence.

I guess all the crypro community agreed that he's a clown and we shouldn't take this seriously. These tweets haven't hurt the btc price.

Even before this he was. Years back he still was one.

I suppose it didn't hurt Bitcoin but instead it only gives more public awareness about cryptocurrencies and those comments seems to be beneficial to the whole crypto industry. Though I find it quite ironic since Trump believes that -
Quote
any publicity is good publicity
and he seems to add more fuel to the Bitcoin fire than killing it. Smiley

I think you right, it just spread more awareness among the common folk  Roll Eyes
The fact he is scared shows how strong crypto is. I think he is against anything that is not the USD
576  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: revealing e-mail might be dangerous on: July 22, 2019, 09:43:36 PM
You should also create an email just for bounties and airdrops and those stuff.  An email that you never read anything lol

Many people use their personal email for that. And this is really too much exposure.


I do this too. I have an email address for each category. I do read the emails from my bounty address. That is how you keep up to date and get invited again.
I agree with not revealing your email in certain places because scammers or advertises or data sellers collect it so they can email you "special" offers. Basically pollutes the email address with spam and scams.
I don't understand anyone using their personal email. It will really be a mess and they going to get confused.
577  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is it really this hard to start out? on: July 21, 2019, 11:30:48 PM
KYC is evil. Never give it to anyone.

You should start using faucets first before proper transactions. Use the faucet with faucethub to make transactions and get familiar with how they work. You won't be risking much so its ok if you make mistakes.

Here is the link for the micro earnings section where you will find faucets and all manner of wonders. It is a pretty safe section and the most you can lose is your time. You won't risk much time though.

Just remember that none of this helps if you don't backup your backup passphrase to restore the F2A if you lose access to your phone. People always seem to forget to mention this and it is just too important not to.
I lost some funds because I lost access to a phone and I did nt realize they have me a phrase I should have backed up. I didn't understand how it quite worked so don't do what I did. Make sure when you open an account or edit it that you can restore it. This goes with all wallets, websites, the phone unlocks and whatever else. If you cannot restore your account you cannot get it back. So when you implement security measures make sure you do not lock yourself out in doing so
579  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Minimum lowest coldest safest GPU temperature? on: July 21, 2019, 10:59:54 PM
No one has actually answered you. You should be googling "subzero overclocking" you can run in the sub zero tempretures. There is no condensation since it evaporates in the air in case you wondering.

Unless you massively over clocking your rig I don't see how doing this helps. Therre is a reason people don't do this to their rigs. If you can do it for free then go for it.

I've found a very nice thread that answer my question a bit.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=62814.0;viewResults

It still doesn't talk about the lowest safest but I guess I wont be able to get the GPU's lower than 40C and if I do I will worry to keep them at least between 40C and 50C.

Anyways I still feel like 40C is pretty hot.
But I guess is not like that for a GPU meant to be running over 60C.

40 is cold. A gpu can run in the 90s celcius. I mined for months with my rx480 on full load at like 80 celcuis. It is normal for a high end gaming pc to reach temperatures like that on full tilt. Obviously, people lower it with fans and such. If I put the cover back on my pc is gets much hotter. I have 4 150mm fans in it.

any updates on your success?

I am thinking of putting my rig in the attic but worried of winter temperatures, as the attic is not insulated or isolated from outside direct wind and dust. similar to yours I guess; I am curious what happened to your project as I am looking at building like a massive net box to put the rig and then see if the hot air dissipates in the vast space, also worried about bugs and insect being drawn to warm at night, or those bright white blinking lights/ among condensation and other issues.

I look forward to your reply

Dust causes static and static destroys electronics.

You are missing the point of bitcoin and are seeing it as an investment to earn more fiat... Why don't you just spend your bitcoin directly and then just keep it? Why sell it? So you can make crappy fiat transactions on an outdated and controlled centralized system? You are also talking about first world countries and you should be able to spend it directly in countries that are so well developed.

How much bitcoin do you have? Explain what you trying to do so we can help you better? Are you wanting to profit and buy back in? Or just a fiat slave? You coming across like a fiat slave.
