6001  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sats rather than Bitcoin - will it cause a price pump? on: August 09, 2019, 10:01:14 AM
For lightning network transactions the term sats is more preferable because TX's there are lower.

I've been using mBTC sometimes but most of the time I just use btc as label because I get used to it. Both for me are good rather than with a lot of zeroes for satoshi's although it has been labeled to credit Satoshi Nakamoto.

While the intensity between the two is fresh and still getting the attention of the fans, they will consider it but if not, it's fine then Floyd has proven himself already and he's happy to have that win against Manny.
In short, if Floyd Mayweather Jr. will not accept the challenge of Manny Pacman Pacquiao for the rematch, it is really mean that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is playing safe, he maybe doesn't want anymore to get a lose by Manny Pacman Pacquiao and want his record clean with 0 loss.

Even if we based on their age which Floyd Mayweather Jr. is current on his 42 years old, and Manny Pacman Pacquiao is 40 years old, they can still fight since the gap is not too much, another big fight of the year once this will happen.
The age isn't the problem, they are making the interest of the people as a sole business. We as fans, we really want to see this fight and no doubt that many would love to watch the fight and get the tickets even with pay per view.

And I don't want to expect that this match will actually happen, Floyd might already have the sense and standing with his words that he literally retired and wanted to settle his career without a loss.
Exactly, age is not a concern here, the issue here is how much money will Floyd make, hehehe. Even Arum, Pacman's former manager is into hyping the fight as well.

https://www.boxingscene.com/arum-manny-pacquiao-beat-floyd-mayweather-now--141534
Ohhh, is this a hint that they are pushing it hard and giving the people hype for this match? Bob Arum steps in and that can trigger to make this fight happen.

I'm more interested now on how much would be the share for Floyd. And I'm sure that his cut will be higher than Manny, as usual he won't be called with that label if he's letting his opponent get higher cut.

Thanks for all your opinions guys, its interesting to read different ways to see this, some of your replies match with my thoughts. About why i bought XRP in first place? Was my first coin when i enter onto crypto , and somehow i feel it to be safe , since it had real world usage and work with important companies , that make me confident. Also i thought if government ban crypto XRP its "safe" because work with banks , its less shady than BTC.
Now I understand on why you have chosen XRP over bitcoin and I can't judge you with that decision because if I'm new to this market, I'd definitely go with the assurance that my money won't be gone so quickly.

So what's your final decision now after hearing most of the suggestion of the people here? Are you going to sell your XRP and move it to btc or you will keep it and buy bitcoin from your spare or few portion of your savings?

And this will determine the bulls, people who got in before the halving and thought that a surge would come an instant after that will now decide whether to keep or start selling it.

For short term, I don't suggest to buy Litecoin but for someone who sees a good long term on it, I'll suggest to go for it. This sides with those people who are waiting for the 'altcoin season'.
Isn't it Litecoin just concluded their block halving? So I guess it's good to see this as an opportunity for long term profit. Although we are not yet in the altcoin season, we need to look at prospective coins that we can invest long term and maximise profit, and I think LTC is one of them, just saying.
Yes, last Monday. I'm also considering Litecoin as a good long term hold for altcoins but I don't want to suggest it to others who are starting to the market. They will just look on how reddish it is these days.

I've known newbies who don't look at that prospect because they are looking at the current price instead on how good the coin is. Anyway, this isn't a financial advice and they should keep researching for themselves before buying Litecoin.

People are really hoping for that altcoin season this isn't only applicable with LTC but on all coins in the market where there would be a specific time for its market to change.
For LTC I cant say that it doesn't have any future but shorting it wouldn't really be ideal.Sadly for those who bought lots of it hoping for that post-halving results of increase but it turns out on the different way.Its a risk or like gamble though and what it makes more deep if they do either hold it up or release it, their choice.
The effect was expected to be positive but its not a short term process, this will go after few more months so to those that knows and understands that it has to go through this way, knows what they are doing.

Yup, it's their choice to sell it or hold but if I've got a lot of Litecoin and bought it at high I'll hold it. But if I bought it at the bottom, I'll start selling it.

Not our money so the decision will still depend on your take. Do you think its still worth it for you to wait for the XRP comeback? I used to suggest people to buy bitcoin no matter what how low it was before and now that suggestion is resulting positively.

Are you in loss with XRP now? if you are I suggest keeping it and buy bitcoin with your spare and I think that's a better thing for you to do. But if you are okay selling it now for btc, do it without regrets.

Most probably those who received such emails are those users who have emails used in other crypto-related websites such as cloud mining since the owner of such sites can sell those email list to someone who is interested of using those info for such scheme.
And probably those ICO related sites that offered airdrops before. I saw those before and someone offered on the marketplace(altcoins) that hundreds of thousands of crypto related email on his database.

Those who are aware of the website's update, it's no longer '.info' but still sad to think that there might be few that will be caught as a victim of this phishing link. Thanks for the heads up baofeng.

No matter how many times we do alert or advise on most people about phishing links and giving out some suggestions to avoid themselves into those things but there were still who do got victimized and this is why these kind of phishing attempts do still exist because of these noobs that to do continue to feed em up and also even just with your own
common sense you can spot out a legit on a fake one.
There are people who are not techie regarding these phishing sites and it's the reality that happens daily that there are who keeps falling on that trap. I feel bad about them but they can't look the difference between the legit and the fake one.

They'll learn once they experienced it. If they can just ignore and don't click any of those links attached to those emails, they can be safe even though they are not techie.

This has been circulating on the news and you can research those articles that where you can gather information regarding their connection.

Like these news/articles:

$150 Million in Freshly Printed Tether To Cause Bitcoin Price to Surge

Statistical analysis of Bitcoin price manipulation by Tether issuance in late 2017

Study Finds Little Correlation Between Tether Printing and Bitcoin's Price

There are more but I think this is enough.

Another imposter. In General, nothing new. Why write about it at all?
To get attention and views for their article, simple as that.

The title is misleading and it should be "Bitcoin SV" not bitcoin because the difference is big for both. The author is acknowledging that CW is the creator of bitcoin, very misleading title and a clickbait that tries to gather views through the controversial guy.

First congratulations to these young bloods who got a good place on that competition. I didn't know that there's already a competition like this and because of this kind of competition, they are encouraging more developers to come, adopt and have a career within blockchain technology.

The project these kids made is important and many are dealing with this problem of getting those fake medicines, if this will be implemented properly those fake drugs would be traced.

Floyd Mayweather drops hint he's preparing for Manny Pacquiao rematch
Woah! whoever is starting the buzz now and I don't think that this will make into reality? the question is if Manny would love the rematch against him if this is real. But this footage doesn't confirm that he's really talking about the rematch.

The link doesn't even have a say about this and I can't click the video it has, prolly I have an internet issue. But sooner or later, we'll know if they will really have a rematch although everyone has already gave up about it.


We should not expect too much, if the fight will happen then so be it, and let's just enjoy it, I mean hopefully it will be an enjoyable fright.
It's the same Mayweather that we will see in that game, but hopefully it will not be the same Manny Pacman, we wants him to him Mayweather really hard and knock him down like what he did to Thurman so he will have a shot of winning in this possible rematch.
Yep definitely. Don't be excited about the news that are coming because it can be a buzz that's solely created for exposure and no intention of giving the fact about the real issue about this rematch.

This will make them a lot of money again for both sides "IF" it will come into reality. While the intensity between the two is fresh and still getting the attention of the fans, they will consider it but if not, it's fine then Floyd has proven himself already and he's happy to have that win against Manny.

Yes it's not going to last for a long time because there is balance in this market. And someone like you who's amazed and probably thinks that this happens rarely should get to used to it.

Every time when bitcoin's price moves very rapidly, this is the typical move of it and the expectation of looking at the downtrend afterwards is a normal reaction if you haven't been on this market for a long time.

He used the word "sensing" in other terms it's a simple and plain speculation and opinion without factual basis related to charts and scenarios.

Expect that he's not the only person to tell their sense or speculation about bitcoin. With the increase, they will also ride and give their opinion about the current run that we've right now. I think he wants to create a FOMO out of his followers.
6017  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Removal of signature before end of the campaign shouldn't cause disqualification on: August 05, 2019, 11:07:02 PM
in my opinion you should always read and know the rules that already exist in the bounty program, this is very fair if there are people who break the rules in the campaign program and are disqualified. because there is already a provision from the manager so we have to follow it
Some bounty hunters find it offensive and unfair but they have to realize that if its already indicated in the first place, they have to obey and respect the rules that is being implemented.

As I've said, things can be settled through talks and it's okay to reach out to the manager for this matter. If the bounty manager responded positively, you are good but if the manager can't grant your request, respect him/her decision.

The emotional part really triggers us, I've done that before and regret what I did. And I'm sure that many also experienced this though it's already a lesson learned for me.

I would like to add also that do gamble with legit crypto casino's only. I've seen many complains about those gamblers who deposited to the fake and scam casino and most of those casinos were newly created.

already see Libra coin on the market, but i dont know its real or now, i see the news about this Libra coin still didnt development
Mind to give the link to that Libra coin that you have seen in the market? as far as I know, Libra haven't launched yet and they are on the hot seat of US senate while on the developing process so how they can be on the market if there's no announcement from the official makers of it?

The one that you have seen probably is a decoy and is a potential scam that misleads investors.

Libra scams are already proliferating on Facebook
