6221  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum vs Bitcoin as goal of investments on: January 11, 2018, 11:02:26 PM
Many people out there don´t believe that Ethereum can be a long term hodling, they simply use it participate in ICOs, sell and buy bitcoin again with the profit. Do you think that may change this year and ethereum can be seen as the choice to hodl?
Who do said that most people don't trust ETH? For some people then its possible which they are just seeing this coin for profits purposes but if you dig deeper then you would really find out that this thing is really worth holding for longer terms but well people do have different decisions on both things but I would say it would really be more worth of if you do hold both coins because diversifying your money is at its best. Cool

Yep it's down.


Etherscan.io is currently offline and should be back up shortly.

Thank you

And it's also on their twitter https://twitter.com/etherscan/status/951520539255881728

and is that why i cant see my tokens on myetherwallet?
Yes, you can't see your tokens because it's down but have you ever tried to log in to your MEW account and check manually those tokens that you want to see?

Anyway you can try this https://ethplorer.io/



where can i see my tokens. ethplorer doesnt show any information. it shows i have no tokens. or any transactions.
Have you inputted your Ether wallet address? Just like on traditional etherscan. If you did then it should show information on the tokens you do hold and the transactions been made. It do works fine for me since I have tried now to check my balance on my wallet since etherscan as of now is not usable. If it does work on me then it should really work on you. Just be sure to put the right address of yours if you do believe that it has a balance on it.

I cant reach etherscan.io
anyone can reach?

and is that why i cant see my tokens on myetherwallet?


404 - File or directory not found.
The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.


You are not the only one who do experience such problem,seems like it is generally on etherscan problem.Hope they would come back soon but for now you can use another site on checking wallet balance. Ethplorer.io
6224  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Any legit airdrops? on: January 11, 2018, 09:30:41 PM
Check out airdropalert. It is a legit site with good airdrops notifications to  your mailbox. You need to subscribe to their newsletter first before availing their Subscription services.
This is what I like on airdropalert since they do have notifications regarding on updates. Talking about about legitimacy we cant really directly point out if those are legit ones or not as long they are not asking for some money then it should be fine to join in since we are just giving out common informations like username,email or any other things required on most airdrop. Its not really bad to join up because they do only require less time compared on bounty camps.
6225  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How some people here add transactions to ViaBTC? on: January 11, 2018, 09:05:11 PM
I've seen someone on this forum advicing to sent an acceleration request some seconds (or maybe even a minute) before the new hour starts. I'm also experiencing the same issue with ViaBTC but it lasts already foe several month. Onle I've spent a half day trying to send a request.
Spending half day for the sake of pushing your transaction is insane since you can do it hourly or when the timer resets and I did such thing but most of the time I do failed up and just like on what members above doing I have tried to input for the very first seconds of past hour but still I failed up to succeed for my transaction to get pushed because of that Beyond limit thing. Doesn't like it do reset since 100 spots been filled out so fast.

bitcoin prices continue to rise as this is one of the causes of increased bitcoin users, whose goal is to change a much better standard of living, give your feedback on this?
Aside from bitcoins main purpose of its existence we cant really deny the fact that this thing Is majorly the reason why some people do decide to engage with it,not only to its actual usage but also on the money opportunity that it gives to those people who do decide to learn bitcoin. There are really people who did become rich because of bitcoin and not only that even on altcoins too considering that profits can really be still converted to bitcoin before you would convert it to fiat which means as a general stuff it do really create new millionaires.
6227  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: what do you do when your idea is taken ? on: January 10, 2018, 11:19:37 PM
If you are doing a presentation about your idea, do not get into the details because they might steal your idea. Even if they stole it, they would not make it as perfect as yours because you know every detail and at the end of the day, it would be clear to people that it was your idea to begin with because it was well-made.

However, if you came up with an idea and you knew someone who came up with it on his own, either you would change it or make it as perfect as you can so it would definitely surpass it.
Fake ones would be always ended up to be fake no matter what they do on copying your idea since the whole concept is already on your mind. They might make some additions but most of the time it wont really fit or not suitable on the idea you do made. This is why when you do tend to illustrate between yours and the fake ones then people will definitely tell the difference even if they would see at first the similarities but on further discussions they would find out which is more better.

Was supposed to give the same link too which I do really followed up this thread when it comes to airdrops which is constantly updated and as an airdrop hunter this thread would really suits you in. By the way,let me ask you this, Do you know on what is fork? If it does then its not really happening anytime since there would really be schedules on when those fork happens and talking about on how to claim them then there would really be lots of tutorial online.
Almost everybody can do fork now, most of them just greedy developer and free money hunter who hope receive something worth for holding some coins  Roll Eyes
Well you are absolutely right which they are now going into that trend about forking events because they do see that they can able to make money if they are going with the trend. If you do earn those coins in free way then its not really a bad idea to hold those coins as long you didn't invest on those projects which you seem that do have greedy developer then you are just fine since you don't risk any money out of it and that's the advantage.

Here click "watch" and "notify" in this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1438371.0 this thread generaly give you all airdrop in ann section into one thread. Actually not all of them but its good enough to know news without need to browse entire subforum.

Yes even more fine tuned, exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

How often do these various forks happen between bitcoin and alt coins?

6230  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Xapo closes debit card service! on: January 10, 2018, 09:27:23 PM
Well, I didn't receive any previous notice except this today. Otherwise I would be prepared and take some actions.
For now it seems that only debit cards related to Master Card are woking, every other related to Visa, no matter the service, is out of use. Not just Xapo cards.
I wonder how long will take until they find a new provider.

As you said it is nothing to do with XAPO because they also might have got this information all of sudden from VISA. I think many crypto debit cards got affected by this VISA policy change. I'm from Asia and my card was stopped working from last OCT itself but they gave us more than month time before closing the service. Until now can't find any other service provider in Asian countries. It was very convenient to withdraw cash even though we pay some fee for the service.

Exactly, using Bitcoin debit card was very convenient for me, not just for cash withdrawal which I didn't use so often but for paying in stores and for other services just like with any other card. So didn't have any need to sell Bitcoin for fiat looking for trusted sellers or services.
The best was that with Xapo I didn't have to move my coins anywhere or top up the card but when I had coins in wallet they were directly available at the card also.
It's really pitty, hope they will offer new cards very soon.
It does really give convenience because you wont really need have to convert just like other similar services been given. I'm also a user of this thing but on Asian part just like the dude above. It is really sad that they do stop completely and actually they did really inform about this matter on all of their clients which supposed to be VISA's decision and XAPO has nothing to do with it since the provider did already make such decision and its correct that they are not the only ones being affected on this such changes.
6231  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: Air Drops? on: January 10, 2018, 08:58:41 PM

Upcoming Dragon coin/ICO say they're doing air drops into a random account every month. Is it worth (do people do this?) just buying a little and holding as an ongoing lottery ticket or is this something lots of people already do?

Also, do coins that do this do the choosing publicly (like the reddit millionairemaker) or do they just announce they've randomly deposited into an account? If not public, surely they can just deposit into one of their own accounts?
Airdrops is one of the methods on where a new coins being distributed freely without the need of investing or the need of buying that token.Its not bad to join up such things and yes it is somehow be treated as a lottery but on fair chances since there were only two things do commonly happen with these coins which they do failed up or being successful which means if those coins accumulated by you on airdrops suddenly spiked up then it would be an easy profits for you but if not then its still fine since you didn't invest on.
6232  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Double your BTC in 6 hours - Most Trusted bitcoin doubler - BTC2Double.com on: January 09, 2018, 11:41:23 PM
Again? I thought this suspicious bitcoin doubling services have gone forever.
I don't know how after so much time and variety of scam scheems somebody can really beleive he could double bitcoins by doing nothing at all and why would somebody paying for this. Don't even try to advertise something so obvious to be scam, you will only make damage to yourself.



I am also thinking about this like you, I am agree with you 100%.
With just common sense you would able to identify already which is already a scam. Nothing on this world would give you out free money with just doing nothing. Come to think of that. If you are sensible enough then you would really be wondering and would be hesitant to invest but if you are a greedy man then you wont really think off these possibilities of scam. Only greedy people are the only ones who do fall out on these kind of investments.Too good to be true offers are scam and theres no doubt on that and that red paint of OP does really deserve him right.
6233  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bitcoin Trading! on: January 09, 2018, 10:41:15 PM
hi im a newbie too, as i know if you want to getting success in bitcoin you need to learn about bitcoin and knowing what is bitcoin and how it works, and i know that if you want to get big income i think experience is more important the skill, because in experience you can get the big skill too. so if you have a skill  you need an expereinces too to get the great value of income
I think the question is a little bit confusing. One thing you should know is that someone can’t have skills on something without having the experience. Experience is what teaches you, and you develop your skills through the experience you might have gotten. So I don’t really see how you can have the skills to do something, when you haven’t done it before.
Skills wont really be there if you don't have experience since we don't have knowledge on anything that we haven't done before same as you said which is actually right. Skills can be molded up along the way if we do engage on a particular thing. Trading isn't simple and should really be need to know on the fundamentals or things about it. Trying out and making mistakes is normal but you should not be discouraged but rather learn up from those mistakes and you would really able to enhance your skills with that.
6234  Economy / Economics / Re: Imagine Bitcoin recognized around the world. on: January 09, 2018, 09:57:19 PM
Many have claimed bitcoin's adoption is fueled by the public losing faith in economists, experts, governments and corporations. As institutions people rely upon fail, they may increasingly resort to extremism and other alternatives. This could explain a rise of extremist groups and alternate lifestyles prevalent in this era.

What some deem human culture may simply reflect necessity and need. Bitcoin may not adapt nor change human culture. It could emerge as a preferred option if it solves problems relating to currency transaction, store of value and limited supply better than its competition. In that crypto's success in the world could be one of "survival of the fittest". Bitcoin survives and perhaps succeeds as it is the best suited to do so in a world where those living in poverty often have few or no options.

Bitcoin may not be perfect, but its transfer fees and taxes are still far lower than its competition. That could be a primary reason for its success and why it may be someday recognized around the world?
Its wide acceptance still sounds much like a joke. Peopl who are into it are fed up of its scaling issues already
I did really laugh on the thing you said on here which is actually true. Thinking of regarding on this matter on which bitcoin being recognized globally would only be possible on our dreams.We are already seeing on how do government do treat up bitcoin, some of them did tend to adopt but most are already making such blockage or banning due to its potential threat to their vicinity this is why I do already lose hope for that global recognition  of bitcoin.
6235  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [ICO] [IPL] InsurePal | Distributed social proof insurance on: January 09, 2018, 08:45:23 PM
if eth price rises, is there a chance crowdsale is already over?

I don't think so. Every project aims to sell his tokens offered for sale irrespective of the price. So even if eth prices go up or go down crowdsale token share(% of token supply offered to crowd) would be the same.
Most project I did encounter doesn't really rely on ETH price on reaching out their cap. As avirunes said they do aim for the tokens sold even the price of ETH surges up and hit up the cap most likely they wont really stop as long the coins not being sold completely as just being stated on their crowdsale.
6236  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH goes from 11 $ to almost 1000 $. What about Waves? on: January 09, 2018, 07:51:56 PM
I really don't understand why have Waves so low price. Last year ETH went from 11 to almost 1000.

Do you think is this possible to Waves?  Wink
Waves isn't bad at all and I admit I do hold off this coin until these days and I do have high hopes for this coin too.It might not able to go equal with ETH but do still have the chance to progress but the question is no one knows on when but if we do tried to look up on their long term plans then we can assume that this thing will really increase its price too.
6237  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Will You Still Get Into Bitcoin Even if the Gov't Declared it Illegal? on: January 09, 2018, 07:23:33 PM
The ban of bitcoin in one or several countries will not have consequences. To earn bitcoin on the Internet outside the jurisdiction of these countries. You can always go to another country to cash out bitcoins and to return to the country with Fiat. This creates additional inconvenience but does not stop the use of cryptocurrencies.

Government should support this great technology or they are just being scared because its Decentralized. I will keep on holding my bitcoin because I know time will come that more people will accept bitcoin and it includes every government. Cryptocurrency is a digital currency thay will makes us more better.
Regarding or concerning indirect cashing out then it wont really be a problem since we can really make hidden transactions if we do want to.Knowing that bitcoin does really have this capability and one of the reasons why government doesn't easily convinced or considered bitcoin to be adopted. We do have high hopes for them to accept it but I would say that no matter what we do hope if government would decide or give jurisdiction about on a certain thing then it cant really be easily removed.
6238  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading or not? on: January 08, 2018, 10:30:47 PM
If I lost most of my capital in one coin, I will hold the first to coin it up again, whether it can be called trading or not?
Give your opinion Smiley
It is indeed trading since you did bought a certain coin and sell out but the situation here seem you sold out on loss since you do mention you lost most of your capital. I'm sure you did panic sell when you do saw the price is falling,Am i right? When you are just seeking out on what is trading then you can able to answer it already basing on the actions you have made. IF it does involve buying and selling on any coins or something then it is trading.
6239  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Which online wallet for bitcoin is safer? on: January 08, 2018, 10:02:24 PM
Any web wallet is good as long as you can benefit from it and a good wallet is that has an exchanges in it. It is convenient to use specially if this exchanges wallet is available to your place for any withdrawal of your funds. Yet you can try any wallet you like as a beginners wallet e.g. blockchain, when i am a newbie before i've used blockchain as a starter.
You are just pertaining on exchange wallet to be used as your main online wallet isn't really advisable specially you are storing it up lots of coins with big value. Its always been suggested to store it up on those wallet where you do own your private keys. The thing that gives you convenience when you store up bitcoins on exchanges is that can easily buy directly altcoins without any problems or an instant since you do have a fund already store on your wallet but for long term or keeping purposes then better to choose up much better wallets like hardware or desktop.

Just saw this Twitter statement:

HOQU
@HOQU_IO
Current state is that some TXs might not show up in the HOQU back office after investing ETH/BTC/LTC due to clogging in ETH network
If you had everything processed but the info doesn't show up - do not worry, we have all the info and TXs are to be shown on 11 of Jan, not sooner.

Jan 6, 2018


So it seems there is some hope  Smiley
 
For those guys above. You do easily panic  Grin . which its is normal though since we are talking money on here and would really be alarmed if we do see our funds is already confirmed but not being credited on the account. HOQU had made already give some words and this should really wipe out those doubts. It is actually true that ETH network is really clogging that's why some services or even crowdfundings as of now is being affected.
