6021  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Removal of signature before end of the campaign shouldn't cause disqualification on: August 03, 2019, 08:12:19 AM
If you feel its unfair then stop participating in altcoin bounty signature campaigns.

I went through your post history and all I can say that you need to improve the content level of your posts. Even if they might seem good to you, an decent manager would consider them as shitposts and some people might as well report them for moderation. Teach yourself basics about bitcoin and trading and try visiting other sections of the forum. By doing so you would prime your account to be ready to participate in bitcoin signature campaigns which are more prestigious then shitcoin bounties.

All the best!

Good day, I just created this new account a few minutes ago.
So the first thing that came to your mind was how to get merits? Makes me wonder that you are not new to this forum at all. Roll Eyes

Quote
Anyone can suggest how to get merit.
If you are going to be one of those people who try to "hunt" for merit, then you wont get any, I am sorry. This is a forum and a forum is meant for discussions. Take part in discussions in as many sections as your knowledge allows you to and, someday, just someday, some kind hearted soul will grant you some merits.

Quote
And what is the purpose of getting merit?
Honestly no purpose at all. Merits dont restrict you from posting in this forum. But they help you rank up. If you want to know more search this forum and make it a habit to read more than type. Tongue
6023  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Best Symbol For The Satoshi on: August 02, 2019, 07:29:31 AM
Its fun seeing people become obsessed with things that are beyond their control. This is human nature to think and imagine things and thus lead to their own downfall. Do you all think changing a symbol would mean changing anything for the future economy? That lowercase dollar sign with a bitcoin sign beside it has been used to denote satoshi since a long time now even before I ever thought of the same.

It is a pointless discussion anyway. Rather than working together to promote the use of bitcoin people are more interested in drawing new symbols for the smallest unit of bitcoin. Cheesy
6024  Economy / Economics / Re: Is institutional capital good or bad for Bitcoin? on: August 02, 2019, 07:25:35 AM
Institutional money is great if it's going long. If this institutional money decides to short bitcoin we're gonna have a problem Cheesy
Its both a boon and a bane. You cannot decide on one side of the deal only, but look out for the other side as well. Its like a double edged sword.

Quote
Usually it's good because if a company invests it also makes a lot of noise in the media. They want others to hear about it and treat it like a bullish sign. There's at least 90% probability that when institutions enter they will pump prices.
These institutions are more of a predator group who look out for whale signals and create their own whale signals. They want people to be influenced about a movement and they would go against that movement to grab the cash from them. Its not something that is good for bitcoin in the long term but for the traders, yes they help pumping and dumping the prices and thus allow people to make a lot of profit.
6025  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: want trade by bot what do you think are you with bots or not on: August 02, 2019, 07:21:13 AM
I am not great in trading but all I know is that I usually gain profit but not that big as some of the great traders here. I think I will consider Bot to do the trading for me.
This is a wrong approach. If you want to trade then do it on your own rather than using a bot. A bot only automates your order placing and running some algorithms. These bots are the reason Binance Sell walls become so high and make a fake market impact in terms of aggregators like coinmarketcap. Overall they have a bad impact on the crypto economy and neither does using a bot guarantee your profit.

However we have some people who are trying to make money by selling bots. So they will feed any person they can find with their BS propaganda about bots and how they can be used to get profits. They are nothing but lies.
6026  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Slot Tournament on: August 02, 2019, 07:18:23 AM
I think so too. But that is impossible to win. Maybe it could be fixed or something. Idk.
It is possible that many offline physical casinos are fixed. But these are just assumptions and no proof of such incident is there. It would be racketeering sabotage against companies by unscrupulous groups as well. However playing slots makes the person really addicted to the sounds and the colors - which is one of the basis of the business behind slots. Hence it could be just an assumption about fixed games.

Nevertheless playing online slots on trusted sites is thus free of any such suspicion and thus disturbance.
6027  Other / Meta / Re: Targeting me? Deleting my posts on: August 01, 2019, 07:40:44 AM
LOL its funny seeing people of this forum not follow rules and when their posts get deleted the complain about mods being too strict. Nobody in this world seems to see their own mistake and correct it but are critical enough to complain about others assuming that it was their mistake.

I recently have had some posts removed because the quoted posts being offtopic and I corrected myself to be careful about whom I am quoting. These solutions are simple and just need a little bit of logic, but hey, if we had logic we would not be wasting time here would we? Grin Grin

OP, stop being a crybaby and man up. Being able to post in this forum is a privilege, I am sure you dont want that to be taken away. Wink
6028  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If you could rename Bitcoin what name would you give it? on: August 01, 2019, 07:33:25 AM
The name bitcoin is short and crisp. It is something to do with bits and bytes being the basic block of any computer program and a currency based on them. I think thats where Satoshi got the name from.

Coming back to topic, none of us are qualified enough that we can rename bitcoin but for the sake of discussion, I would not rename it anyhow. Renaming or like previous topics in this forum "rebranding" does not change anything - it is nothing but a changing of your room;s wallpaper to cover up the finer details - which is why failed blockchain projects (make that "scam disguised ICOs") rebrand and rename their projects in hopes of fooling people into buying them.

Keep the name as it is and thats all.
6029  Other / Off-topic / Re: How much ROI% per month is fair? on: July 31, 2019, 08:28:27 AM
Sirius Crypto Capital is an investment association fund started in 2014 by a group of senior investors coming from a Stock and Forex background now focused exclusively on blockchain tech projects, crypto assets, tokens and digital currency.
A group of noob scammers coming together in the name of "cryptocurrency". Roll Eyes

Any person with even a tiny bit of logic will understand that 1% per month the lowest given here is not sustainable. Heck, banks give out 1% per year and even end up with loads of Non Payable Assets with nothing to do for. Still some kids will go for such scams and put their money there, thinking that this time they may get lucky. Well only the scammer gets lucky.

People like you are the reason of the bad name given to crypto in terms of ponzi and HYIP scams. Sod off from this forum!

6030  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to Identify Cryptocurrency Scams on: July 31, 2019, 07:27:30 AM
Until now, I think I have difficulty in identifying cryptocurrency scams because of all of the projects almost similar between each other, and I don't know which of them that is a scam.
You are being dumb here. If some new project looks like another project, then that is an obvious sign of a scam. See a copied whitepaper or team pictures is no doubt a scam. There have been projects which target the similar concept or a similar market but that is a different issue.

Quote
That makes me careful to decide to invest in their projects, but fortunately, I don't invest much money with them so I can save my money. I don't think that other people can identify them too because it still hard to find those scammers.
Just saving your money is not what this forum was made for. Bitcoin itself is considered an investment and by all means I consider it the best of all other crypto-currency investments. Keeping your money in a bank only means you get a small rate of interest and nothing more. Consider looking into the top10 coins on any website except the forked coins and decide what is best for you to invest in.

Scammers will always be there. But you have learn to be vigilant and alert. Fear, Greed and Doubt are three things a scammer uses to blind its victim so watch out for such attempts.
6031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling destitute on: July 31, 2019, 07:21:54 AM
Gambling isnt making people poorer, people waste money on all kinds of activity that gives no profit.
How a person spends money is their own decision. Some people like to waste money in collecting antiques and then selling them again. Basically is another type trading but to someone else this may seem like a waste of time and money. Its just that that specific person finds solace and happiness in doing so and thus stopping them from doing it would have an adverse effect.

Quote
The big mistake is poor money management and spending money you cannot do without. To gamble what you cannot lose is to fail understanding of the chance nature to all entries.
Poor management of money indeed, but logic is also lacking in many gamblers. They cannot use their brain to decide whether to stop gambling or not and when to stop.
6032  Economy / Lending / Re: Need 0.002btc loan on: July 31, 2019, 07:13:50 AM
Hi there I have to make a withdraw and it requires 0.01 btc while I have 0.0084 BTC and I would need a loan of 0.002 btc for that
First of all you have been scammed here because this is a typical story of a user trying to use a site and depositing there and when they try to withdraw, the site asks for a deposit. Even if you really deposit something, that notice will remain and you will lose anything you send there. Even their support chats are programmed to reply you like that.

A group of scammers are doing this and people keep falling prey of this scam where the scammers promise some big reward for doing something and then they "stop" the withdraw saying that you need to deposit some 0.01 BTC to get a reward - whose amount is much bigger than the 0.01BTC. That is their pitch, they try to incite the greed in you at that point. But as we know greed kills, just like speed.
6033  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: With Bitcoin, a future is not clear on: July 30, 2019, 09:27:58 AM
After researching the news sources, I decided to pledge my land and houses worth $ 40000. I use it to buy 4 Bitcoin
I will rent a small apartment with my family

Quote
I'm happy now
I believe that the BTC will increase to $ 20k next year.
You have done all this and now you are happy? I wonder how your wife let you do that unless you fed her with some good quality drugs. Grin

But seriously, I wont advice you to do that because although I like the enthusiasm, every investment should be having its limit. One should not put all their life savings into something that they are speculating on. Like the wiser people say, never gamble more than 10% of your bankroll the same applies here. Real estate is something that people live in and thus unless you have a separate home to live in I would not suggest selling it for a truckload of cash for bitcoin.
6034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reasons Crypto Players Skip Casinos with KYC on: July 30, 2019, 08:29:07 AM
Right. That's why others are also reasoning the same but, do we have an option if our funds are stuck on any website and they required us to follow so that they can allow the withdrawal?
This can only happen for two reasons:
1. The casino is gathering data of its users. In this case it is a scam and you have lost some money if you decide to not share your details.
2. You source of money was tainted. This is the majority of cases we see on bitcointalk where a newbie account comes up with the complain of not being paid by casinos and that the casino is asking for KYC. The bottom of the case is that the victim themselves were doing shady stuff and got money from illegal sources and sent them to the casino, to play and use as an intermediary and then cashed it out only to get stuck by the security check.
6035  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin believers/investors are foolish or low IQ people ? on: July 30, 2019, 08:25:25 AM
Bitcoin believers or investors are not foolish but most investors make their decisions based on their emotions without any solid analysis of the market.
You are wrong. Most investors remain good investors because they take their decisions not be emotions but by logical analysis. Even at times their analysis ends up wrong and they lose some money still, it was based on logic and not assumptions like what many FUDstars have done till date.

Quote
This normally end up in losses because some may buy during the peak of the rise and are too impatient to also wait. It is always good to utilize the bear market situation when Bitcoin price drops - this is where investors must buy more because Bitcoin will definitely rise when it drops in price.
So you can see it is not always a question of emotion or logic. It is just going with the flow to catch some coins when they are dropping and selling when they are rising. Whether that person is intelligent or not is irrelevant in this case. The wrong move would be listen to so called financial advisors who shill some altcoins. Those are the scum of this market who have no lives.
6036  Economy / Economics / Re: Top Three Emotions to Check to Succeed! on: July 30, 2019, 08:21:23 AM
That is the most difficult part. It's like you battle with your own self overcoming your emotion preventing to get ahead of you. It is not easy because it is part of the human nature, we aren't easily contented and crave for more.
Hence the reason the retard remain retards and the wise people dominate over them. Those who can control their emotions to a good extent are able to do things that others cant imagine and thus they think that the former must be god-like. Its not impossible to be a trader with a cold heart and only money making methods in mind if you have the proper psychological background and dont break under pressure.

However you can start by doing a risk management so you know that even if you lose all the money you invested you would still not be a be in a huge loss. I think this is one of the basis of the bad emotions coming in since it is not done properly. The what the OP mentions comes into play.
6037  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Private bounties on: July 29, 2019, 10:01:12 AM
it is suitable for getting those jobs to be telegram manager, translator and so on i think.

I estimate many projects have such a demand. But difficult to find.
These are all small term jobs for a small living. You all should not limit your vision to this much earning but dream big and for that you need to gain skills and knowledge and get a real life job that pays well. Of course not everyone is able to which I understand, but keeping yourself limited to these sort of work will move the bigger picture out of your mind.

Maybe you have good translation and communication skills - use them to get the job of on interpreter or a teacher in your local area. Bounties in this forum will not last forever. We dont even know if altcoins are going to survive well in future unless you sell them for bitcoins at proper pumps. So its always a good option to keep these earnings as secondary and have a solid primary job as backup.
6038  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: People expecting collateral for all loans on: July 29, 2019, 08:59:41 AM
What a business to be in, zero risk for the person lending out money, is completely backwards to the real world.  Most loans and credit is given without collateral.  People can ask what they want but lenders usually have a risk.
If you think like that, why dont you send out some of your cash to people you think would return them to you with x% interest per month and then observe how many actually return that money to you.

Dont compare lending to an investment banker investment here. The latter does have some guarantee and legal procedure in case of default. Come to this forum and reddit where people give out p2p loans there is no legal basis on which a defaulted loan may get sought after and thus people can just come to the forum with new accounts and as per your judgement should be given out free money by lenders only to get scammed.

If you still dont understand what the people in this thread have tried to say, then you need to seek professional advice because you are delusional and need treatment.
6039  Economy / Economics / Re: Are Blockchain Projects in Northeast Asia can change the economy? on: July 29, 2019, 08:53:02 AM
The technology there is already so advanced and people never refrain from using the new one's , the government is also so supportive .
I think they would set an amazing example and will see tremendous growth in the economy soon.
What makes you think that they would be willing to take the risk in a new sector or some known blockchain based projects? The current legality of bitcoin although legal in these countries but the picture is pretty tarnished back in US and majority of Asia.

Whether this can be changed in future is still a question. In case if bigger companies start accepting cryptocurrencies then we might see a change in the stance of the governments and then it might be worth seeking out such country people for a pitch. Till then I dont see any reason why any project would be able to get a decent financial support from them. Sad
6040  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you buy lottery online in bitcoin payment? on: July 29, 2019, 08:46:15 AM
There is no risk if you won the lottery. There should be no issue in claiming the lottery. The real issue is that if you do not win the lottery all your invested funds will be lost. That's the only reason i do not invest in lottery as it is too risky.
It is wrong to say that you "invest" in gambling because you dont. You gamble your money in trying to make more money and the method is lottery ticket buying. Investment is something of a broader term here and although this is debatable, I consider gambling to be a mode of entertainment and not a mode of making money. The only person making money is the bookmaker.

Whether you decide to buy lottery tickets is your choice. I see people of lower economic strata, not having much of a savings to do, waste their money gambling and buying lottery tickets. Its because they are trying their luck because they have nothing else to depend on.
