Why was bitcoin invented in the first place? I would say for a decentralized system. If I’m right then the aim has been achieved and we are not in any risk of loosing that or getting it changed. If I were him, I would be on my lazy chair enjoying every bit of life the way I could rather than destroying a great invention like bitcoin.

it is not up to him at the moment, it is decentralized and nobody could destroy it, expect in the case that nobody use it and then miners will give up, until then there is no possibility for one man to destroy it
what he can do is to sell his BTC on the market, which could influence large price drop, but that is another topic

I think that Polkadot worthy competitor for Ethereum! They have a good development team, a similar algorithm for the network... Buterin used to talk about them a lot... And now a lot of projects move to Polkadot from Ethereum... That is, the project is a success at the start, which is not less important!

could you provide some list of those projects that move to Polkadot from Ethereum, i did not saw that there is a lot, or did not saw that any well-known project is leaving Ethereum for Polkadot at the moment, would be interesting to see which are those
5845  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Polkadot - new top ten member on: August 29, 2020, 12:42:46 PM
Polkadot is a very solid project, which might be undervalued right now if you ask me. I've been trading it and also considering to go long term on it. I tried doing an arbitrage hours ago with DOT from binance to Kucoin but withdrawal was disabled on Binance, I think they already spotted the price gap between the two exchanges. I'll still check DOT chart to take position later on. I doubt if there is any altcoin out there which is Ethereum's big contender, so many have been hyped to beat ETH, but fade after the hype.
solid project? can you please explain to me. what exactly makes this project solid. many doubted this, because before this project could not fly high, but now this project can be in the top position. So I think how this polka dot project will continue in the future?

They just appeared at the right moment but actually have intercepted and developed ideas that already existed and were implemented in other projects. There are many examples of good technologies that died because they came before their time. But after a while, they were picked up by others and still exist.

It is a key skill for any businessman to see the opportunities and realize them at the right time. The Polkadot team has this skill and that is why they will be on top very soon.

Polkadot team is made from members of Ethereum foundation, lead by Gavin, which is very good from my point of view, and momentum for release of their platform is great, since ETH2.0 is late and they could pick-up maximum attention at the moment
what will happen in six months, nobody knows, we can just create our own strategies and try to earn on the market
5846  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bought 66k Siacoins on: August 29, 2020, 12:13:35 PM
i also have SIA coin, they just released SiaStream application, and it seems that development is getting some pace, but price have already risen and one should expect consolidation, but in the long term, i expect SC to go up
of course, you should think for yourself, this is just my point of view, not financial advice
5847  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will 2021 be the year of Litecoin? on: August 29, 2020, 11:35:24 AM
would not think that it will be year of Litecoin, maybe the year of next halving 2023 is better choice for a year of Litecoin, this coin is slowly sliding down from top 10 coins, and i expect that in 2021 that circle will close out and LTC will be out of top 10
it is possible to shortly be back in 2023 due to halving, but i see that as speculation only

of course, one should do his own research prior to investment
5848  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: RenVM, supposedly decentralised but control 9000 BTC worth of funds on: August 29, 2020, 11:16:01 AM
yeah, but one should note that this is in line with their original plan to have centralized network until everything is polished for decentralization, so i would not say that this is misleading, of course, one should read all the available material before investing money into some project, if you invest without all information, than you will probably lose money

5850  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto passive income - a bubble? on: August 28, 2020, 07:00:07 PM
So, maybe we should try to contribute to the community to make more profit instead of just expect our money to make money.
Unfortunately I do not think this is possible, for the most part people do not really like their jobs and some of them even hate them but they keep going on because they need the money, as such for the most part people have two different dreams, the first one is that they dream of getting their dream job, they dream of doing something that doesn't feel like a job but still getting paid as if you are in one, and the second dream is to get a source of income that is passive and they never have to work again, in my mind both are valid but both are incredibly difficult to pull off successfully.

agree on both, and would like to point out that to obtain passive income is not easy, and this with crypto seems easy, since they are giving good interest rates on your capital, on the other hand, banks have similar strategies, they are providing more interest where the risk is bigger, so one can conclude that stacking crypto should be seen as risky business, and we do not know how all this will end up, on which side, positive or negative

one should estimate the risk before stacking any coin, known tokens are always better option, IMHO, but this should not be taken as financial advise
5851  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SWIPE or swiped away on: August 28, 2020, 01:07:19 PM
What is Swipe (SXP)?

Swipe is a debit card and wallet platform that gives users access to spend various cryptocurrencies in fiat currencies on-demand.
Not too long ago Exchange giant Binance has acquired this crypto wallet which supposedly will be a serious contender of Crypto.com Coin (CRO).

Starting 2020/08/17 00:00 UTC, Binance will begin taking live snapshots of user BNB balances to calculate each users’ weekly average BNB holding amount held on Binance.com. and airdrop SXP accordingly.

So far so good…

However, the SXP that airdropped to BNB holders will be taken from the existing circulating supply and bought from the market, thus this program will not increase any circulating supplies.
Not too long before the airdrop was announced by Binance the price of SXP passed over 4 dollars, but after the price started a steep decline, with currently hovering between 2.5 to 3 dollars.

Here it is…I am just going to say it…

I thing Binance is pressing down the price of SXP so that it does not have to pay the full price of SXP as it is giving it for “free” anyway, and will continue to do so for 12 weeks starting from 2020/08/17 00:00 UTC, until the 14th week (according to my calendar calculations the last snapshot date or end of the airdrop is on 22nd of November.   


interesting view, one must note that SXP have risen 16x from lows in March, and it is a time for healthy correction, no matter the situation with Binance airdrop, and that circulating supply is only 20% of total supply, so total capitalization is already with 700 milion range, not that far from CRO market capitalization, as looks on first

5852  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can Crypto be more valuable than gold? on: August 28, 2020, 12:59:20 PM
I have thought that one key advantage crypto (bitcoin, litecoin, Dash, monero etc.) has over gold is that its supply level is fixed and transparent, but can this or features make crypto more valuable than gold?
This is not clear to me what do you mean by more valuable. If it considered as marketcap then we can mention the crypto as more valuable than gold. Both has demand on their on field. If we considered crypto as legalized then the demand and price will be more than now. So it can be said that it has a good potential.

it can be, but it is not at the moment, but there is also one point that one should bear in mind
gold is a store-of-value, and some crypto is also trying to play the store-of-money role, most notably BTC, so it make sense to compare market capitalization of BTC and gold, or all store-of-value crypto currencies and BTC, but does not make sense to compare crypto market capitalization with gold, since some crypto currencies are utility tokens, or have other purpose than store-of-value
5853  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: August 28, 2020, 12:17:59 PM
Is Messi really going to Manchester City? This will make City a prime candidate to win the Premier League title this season..Messi fits perfectly into City's style of play

yeah, but they are already one of prime candidates, Liverpool had season that is not easy to repeat, and this year will be more interesting for sure, with City as prime candidate for the title (i am not a fan, but just realistic)
with Messi they could mess up their football, since he is a bit old for Premier league football tempo, and will require to be the main player in the team, which is not easy in his age, and with tempo as in Premier league, there is significant difference compared to La liga

usually, you play Premier league at young age, and Calcio and La liga when you are nearing 30-ties, and Messi is already above 30-ties, so think that City would be a mistake
5854  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will "De-Fi" replace traditional banking in the future? on: August 28, 2020, 11:32:38 AM
i do not think that it is possible for DeFi to replace traditional banking, it will certainly be there for P2P lending and borrowing, but it is a huge industry to be substituted with self-governed DeFi project, maybe banks will include some variant of DeFi infrastructure for people to lend their money from their accounts through bank infrastructure, but to let the whole industry go, i do not believe in that scenario
5855  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Polkadot - new top ten member on: August 28, 2020, 08:28:23 AM
Polkadots has been amazing lately, I think many are investing in this project now, Dot is really getting a lot of attention now. I cannot really say where this is leafing us to, it might end up been a possible contender with ethereum like OP said, only time will tell.
Yeah Ive noticed the hype on this project almost all of the projects related to their network are starting to pump and gain massively. I just wished I had some of those tokens too. If the polkadot network starting to run their own soon probably this will be the greatest contender on the ethereum network.

i do not understand what you think, DOT is a native token of Polkadot network?
what do you think by, if polkadot network start to run their own, they have a project and a token, and it is a platform for other projects
5856  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Polkadot - new top ten member on: August 28, 2020, 07:50:15 AM
The Polkadot ecosystem is getting bigger and bigger by day and it seems that creating a DeFi project on it is the new way to basically ensure your funding. Anonymous team, no working product, sub-par whitepaper? No worries, its build on Polkadot, lets go "all in"! Cheesy

this seems to be an issue on both, Uniswap and Polkadot, but also on other hyped projects, DeFi is the new name for perspective projects, and you just add it to your project, even if you are building a bakery, and people will invest, it was the same .dot bubble in nineties, but this is a new generation of people, that have to learn by-themselves, they do not want to listen to others
5857  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Belgian Jupiler league 20/21 - predictions 8/18 (won/total) on: August 28, 2020, 07:41:05 AM
round 4 of Belgian Jupiler league:
28.08. 20:45  Oostende - Anderlecht 2
29.08. 16:15  Eupen - St. Truiden X
29.08. 18:30  Cercle Brugge KSV - Kortrijk X
29.08. 18:30  Waasland-Beveren - Leuven 1
29.08. 20:45  Mouscron - Waregem 1
30.08. 13:30  Genk - Club Brugge KV 2
30.08. 16:00  Beerschot VA - St. Liege X
30.08. 18:15  Charleroi - Antwerp X
30.08. 20:45  Gent - KV Mechelen 1

interesting round, with two top teams having good tests of their quality in home matches, Beerschot VA is playing Liege, and Charleroi is facing Antwerp, i expect draw at both matches, since Beerschot VA made a good start, with win over Brugge, but Liege also started well, and would not be offensive in Antwerpen, so counter-attack strategy that brought them three points in Brugge last week will not be feasible at home match, Charleroi also wrote win over Brugge for themselves, so their top place is well deserved, but Antwerp is a good team, that will be satisfied with draw on Sunday

from other matches, after poor start, i expect from Brugge to get started in Genk this weekend and Gent should be secure to win over Mechelen on Sunday evening
one good pick is to have Beveren at home against Leuven, that have many problems with a lot of injured players, and Beveren will use this game to collect important points in relegation fight that is already an open option for both teams

Trenutna situacija je da mnogi ovi istaknuti influenseri prizivaju da se zatvori onaj gap na 9700.
Možemo vidjeti sada hrpa tvitova, chartova i statistike uvezi tog gapa.
Brojke ne lažu, u 91% slučaja Btc je uvijek zatvarao ovakve gapove prije nego bi napravio take off.
Pokušavaju napraviti sentiment u stilu da prodajte sada , pa dokupite u range-u 9500-10000k i to vam je posljednja prilika za kupnju na tim razinama.


postoji jos jedan CME gap, a on se nalazi na nivou ispod martovskog minimuma, izmedju 2800 i 3000, i za njega se prica da ako se sada ne zatvori, realno nema kad, a u principu se svaki gap zatvori usled kretanja cene gore-dole, pa ja licno ne vidim kao neku posebnu indikaciju

inace, za neupucene, CME gap se desi usled toga sto CME radi samo radnim danima, a BTC-om se trguje 24/7
