If you are paying 500 satoshis per ad view, how much will you be asking for the same from an advertiser?
And how much will be the minimum payout from your end to your users? Can you go into more details?
I think the concept is good about having a search engine up related to Bitcoins and my first opinion would be to add Bitcoin related news on top of the pages.

Everyone talking here about split and thinking that it would harm Btc in any way are just taking wild guesses that BCC would take over bitcoin, but it will not be even 1% of it once Btc surpasses all these problems and gets out with the best scaling solutions after August starts. Btc really has the potential to get over there and 5k will be nothing once these debates come to an end.
603  Economy / Speculation / Re: Some theories about bitcoin price because of BCC airdrop on: July 28, 2017, 03:18:09 PM
BCC is just one more shitcoin being added to the list of alts as Bitcoin seems to be gaining strength due to the negative effects of these days too, and the reason I said that can be seen by yourself when you will check out ViaBTC where it's been actively traded atm. Though, theory #3 is the one that will become the actual outcome in my view because I already got a notice from a few exchanges that BCC and BTC both will not be accessible but only one of them which the exchange itself supports, so everyone should stop dreaming that they would be able to make any money out of this.
604  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: If Segwit2x gains 90% support before Aug 1st, will BIP148 still go live? on: July 27, 2017, 03:04:26 PM
So you mean after aug 1st, like btu, even the new coin will not have a good value and btc will continue to remain the same?

BCC is already being traded as futures at ViaBTC where it started at BTC0.5 per BCC and had already seen its low at BTC0.12 and is currently at BTC0.1618 (at the time of writing this post). Seeing this, do you really think it will gain its value back after Aug 1?

I dont think PoS will ever happen or work with Bitcoin. All it will do is give an advantage to people who already have hundreds and thousands of coins, and it will incentivize coin hoarding and  cripple the trading market which in the long run might cause the price to plummet and/or kill bitcoin. So having an algorithm around the amount of coin you have rather than the amount of effort put in is not going to fair well with a big majority of current users.

Yeah, putting a lot of effort with a lot of electricity being consumed each year behind mining it, right? Don't you think we should take it as a positive measure if it ever gets implemented? I said max 0.05%-0.1% a year and that will hardly affect the number of coins if a proper mining management gets injected and the only number of coins that are being mined each day, it should be done accordingly even after going effectively into PoS state.

Theymos gave a hint of the possibility of Bitcoin Cash coming into existence regardless on Aug 1, so does that mean it will be the same like we had that previous ALT which went nowhere but dumped by everyone? Why is it too necessary for these miners to come up with a new currency they already know that will get evaluated with nothing when it doesn't get supported by the majority?

For the same reason any ICO these days gets developed and released. They suggest a better Bitcoin, get people involved and invested, then pump the price and then dump it. It's all about money, you're dealing with currency here. its not bizarre to think that a lot of the reasons things get developed in and around Bitcoin stem and/or are influenced from the need for profit. They playing on the confusion and uncertainty of the past few months.

Do you remember BTU? Bitcoin Unlimited coin which was spread like fire when it came and miners were too much under the influence of Roger Ver that they decided to give more than 40% of the total hash power to this, but what happened? It's not even being traded at 1/10th the price of Bitcoins. I think revealing alts for their own beneficial monetary purposes will get them nowhere but dumps as ViaBTC has already allowed the trading of BCC and it started at 0.5 BTC and is currently being bought at 0.14 BTC. I just want to know that even if the chain split happens, why do we need a coin split here?

Can't Bitcoin only run on a split chain itself? Sorry if I ask something wrong here.
Isn't it possible to just shift Bitcoins' algorithm itself to PoS? It would definitely save a lot of energy consumption as well as expenses that miners bear atm, like giving just 0.05-0.1% interest only a year, so that Satoshi's 21 million cap also don't get crossed. Is there any possibility for this? Because if this gets into action then just like BitShares, Bitcoins will also be able to process most amount of transactions at better speeds and no more fear will be left of network as well as chain splits.

Payment will go on hold for anyone who provided wrong eth address(mean, invalid address) and one who requested address change from a new account which in that case we need a verification.

Sheet has gone through final verification with all corrections and hopefully payout will be coming in a bit(maybe today or a day later).

Are the twitter bounties sent to theviralexchange (TVE) yet or they will also be sent to them after all this gets sort out?
I have asked this question before but I guess Jamal ignored it or the posts after that would have been so many he could not have pointed out mine. Smiley

We will pay to our affiliates in JDC (Just Dating Coin) which will grow and  webmasters will be able to trade their tokens on Waves DEX.

Do you mean that everything, including PPC and CPA campaigns both, will have their values decided in JDCoin itself and will be paid according to the given amounts provided on the website? That's great because it will give webmasters an opportunity to sell them at their rates and earn even more with it.  Wink

We will calculate cost per click for each country separately. We will defend our program from fraud clicks. We have a huge experience in it


That's a great news because fraudsters should really not be supported. I have seen many making too much money through their cheat sheets and I don't like the ways they use to do it.
Anyways, will JDS also be having a CPA campaign in it? Have you guys decided anything over it that if a conversion takes place, what will be the pay to the one who is advertising? I think this will not be dependent on country-based memberships and instead it will be shared upon the type of membership a potential customer buys, right?

I see you know about affiliate programs everything Smiley. We will use CPA model too. We plan to pay 50% of revenue. But for premium partners we will offer up to 100%

Yes, because I had been doing it for more than 8 years and making a lot of money through it. Can you PM me or send me a link here about the rates you have decided for your customers as well as the plans? I am too much curious to know more. Smiley
And it's seriously great to get paid 50% of the revenue as well as 100% too on some flash page direct sales (if I am not wrong). I hope the payment types will include Bitcoins too, so those who don't want to get paid through any e-currencies could withdraw in Btc.  Grin

That would give three forks Big Blocks Bitcoin, Bitcoin Classic (Stalled) and Bitcoin New Mining Rules.

Thanks a ton for your reply, that made me understand everything better.
Now one more question about these forks is if this fork (chain) thing gets happened and if we will have our coins duplicated on different chains, then which one of all of them will be usable and real? If we have coins on the wrong chain, is there a potentiality of losing all our coins or their possession? How will we be able to know that our coins are currently sitting on which chain? Is all this going to affect the network a lot?

The drama is getting hotter and catching fire quickly, I hope to see the best solution employed/deployed to get everyone out of this situation.

I also wanna know that is all this going to affect the miners alone or the users of Bitcoins too? I know I have become a pain in the head but this is getting tougher to understand which is why I am try hard to get informed from various sources and taking as much knowledge about it as I can before it happens.

If it becomes true, this could be the most exciting news I would ever witness. He is taking bets for the same and that's insane.
Even pumping Bitcoins to that level would need billions, so how will it become possible for Bitcoins to be even 1/10th of what he said it will be at?
The worst part was when he committed he will lick his dick in front of National Television if BTC won't be above 500k, can you imagine watching this guy doing such shitty things?
613  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: July 21, 2017, 07:25:12 PM
The only way to be smart when it comes to gambling is first you should know when to withdraw your money from your account because if your bankroll grows you might be tempted to wager more than usual and if you are a sports punter you need to stay updated with sports news and always do your research.. you do not want to bet blindly.
It seems to me that in order to bet, you need to fully study the history of a particular sport. The fact that this inserts I still have confidence, unlike the casino.

Known or unknown, nothing could help out because best teams could also lose to those who never won a match before and have been the most downtrodden teams because sometimes luck favors and such teams win. I am not discouraging you but drawing your attention towards the bitter truth of gambling, the smartest way is to bet without any real assumption of wins and should only bet that we know that won't chop the possibilities of our capital being safe.
614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: July 21, 2017, 07:19:02 PM
Limiting could only help out if we strive to follow our own rules and without having control over ourselves it is not possible.
I have set up a limit of gambling not more than 50 mBTC a week and when I lose, I stop because I know that I have lost enough out of my capital and the rest is needed for my real life. I strictly follow the rules that I have made for myself in order to stop myself from losing more when I have already lost the mentioned amount. And even if I win, I stop when I reach a target that I specify in my mind before entering into anything.
615  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: If Segwit2x gains 90% support before Aug 1st, will BIP148 still go live? on: July 21, 2017, 07:10:53 PM
Thanks for the reply. I have few more questions arise that I want to ask.

Segwit is a capacity increase proposal which includes various fixes for many things in Bitcoin. It is a soft fork and has its own deployment parameters.

What is the difference between a hard fork and a soft fork?
I have heard at some places that when a hard fork happens, (few) miners get their operations blocked by a major number of miners who come to a decision to apply some different rules they agreed upon. Is it true? Don't know much about a soft fork.


BIP 148 is a method to get segwit deployed. When it activates, all blocks must signal for segwit on bit 1 so that segwit will activate by its own deployment procedure. BIP 148 activates when the median time past (the median timestamp of the last 11 blocks) is at or after August 1st, 00:00 UTC. There is no miner signaling and it requires that many users and miners enforce the consensus rule change to force miners to mine the blocks that the users want.

BIP 91 is a another method to get segwit deployed. When it activates, like BIP 148, BIP 91 requires that all blocks must signal for segwit on bit 1 so that segwit will be activated by its own deployment procedure. BIP 91 activates when 269 blocks out of a 336 block non-overlapping window signal for BIP 91. Miners signal for BIP 91 by setting bit 4 of the block version number. Signaling for BIP 91 means that miners will enforce BIP 91's consensus rules.

Are BIP 148 and BIP 91 the same? Or is BIP 148 based on the rules of BIP 91 or may be made based on it? What is that bit 1 and bit 4?


Segwit2x is a combination of BIP 91 and a hard fork. Segwit2x currently is implemented as first activating segwit via the BIP 91 method, and then 12960 blocks after segwit activates, hard fork from the 4 MB block weight specified by segwit to an 8 MB block weight.

Block weights? Are you talking about block sizes here? I mean current ongoing block size is 1 MB (correct me if I am wrong), right?

How much is the probability of hard forking in BTC's network at 1st august?
On August 1st at the time that everyone is so fixated on, probably 0. However the probability of a fork between now and the end of August is almost guaranteed. But you are asking us to predict the future, and that is impossible to do.

I also want to ask a question here that if the fork part gets settled here and we don't see a fork atm, will there still be a possibility of a hardfork in the future if any such scalability issues arise?

While you introduce it to your friends, the best thing you can do to catch their interest in it could be the price rise itself, that how it started from less than a cent and is taking over the world currently with its price tag of more than $2500. Why do you think it could become a barrier here while you can put it in front of them as a positive as well as beneficial state-of-the-art comment and ask them to get in while they can still as many big businessmen have stated that the value could go to more than 5000 later this year.
617  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: If Segwit2x gains 90% support before Aug 1st, will BIP148 still go live? on: July 21, 2017, 12:54:39 PM
I am not a technical geek but want to learn more about this BIP148, BIP91, BIP149, SegWit as well as SegWit2x.
Can anyone do a good detailing for each of the above-mentioned terms as well as make me understand about all this (in a simple language if possible)?
Can they also tell me which one of these will be the best in the interests as well as for the health of bitcoins?

It's a very nice idea to add an affiliate program for webmaster. Do you already know which payment methods will you use to pay affiliates?

We think that PPC for cryptocurrency will be unique offer on the market. It'll attract a lot of webmasters. We also plan to create all type of affiliate programs include white label solution

Is it a pay-per-click or pay-per-customer campaign?
If it is going to be a pay-per-click campaign, then it will definitely attract a lot of site owners as many hosts offer free hosting as well as sub-domains, so the advertising part will get a great boost with it. White label solution will include country-based affiliate marketing people or is it just for the ones who live in Europe only?


Of Course, it'll be a pay per click program. And we will work with all over the world

That sounds great because I have many friends who have blogs with some targeted audience related to cryptocurrencies only, so will surely ask them to apply here. Anyways, can you please do the detailing here regarding the program that what will be the average pay-per-click (genuine one) and is it going to be same for clicks coming from all the countries or it will differ for each country?

Hey guys, did anyone get their tokens from TVE?
I have been seeing and waiting for my tokens but still didn't get any updates there, can someone please share anything about how to check whether we got our tokens or not? I checked the Exchange points page, but all I can see is Viral Points available to be exchanged, but no IXT tokens available.  Huh
