If the propose Public Amendment of Gambling Law to BAN Casino come to pass what then will be faith of those who are benefiting from casino business related activities https://dailyasianage.com/news/199020/amendment-to-gambling-law-to-ban-casino

This news  is coming from Bangladesh so people who are into gambling in that region needs to deal with this one, here in our country it's not going to happen, we are liberal and a democratic country, there are many casinos in our country but part of the revenues goes to the health need of our people, $4.1 billion is hard to ignore, our casinos are being run by our government and this is one of the biggest revenue-generating government company.

Bitcoin has been overtaking system companies and projects for the past ten years, I'm not surprised if they beat Paypal as the most preferred payment processor because until now there are a lot of companies prefer Paypal than Bitcoin these companies have in their terms a chargeback option and Paypal so far is the one compatible for now, I used the word for now because change can and will happen.

^ Weird, I don't know why Ruiz will come in the fight much lighter though,  did he wanted to show his speed here? I doubt that he can do that against Joshua in this second fight. I mean he was "perfect" in the first fight and I doubt that Joshua will change his strategy. Well, he can run in the first few rounds but I'm sure that Andy even at a heavier weight can catch up with him and will have success.

For me it will spell the difference here and if Ruiz losses this fight, it's probably because of trying to come up lighter against Joshua.

I'm also surprised seeing this picture, it's a big difference, we can easily tell that he will put emphasis on the speed because this is where he beat Joshua with his speed and accuracy, but hopefully, he can maintain the power on those speeds, he will not do something that will let Joshua retake the crown, if  Joshua wins by a split decision a trilogy is forthcoming.

First was bitcoin
Second was cryptocurreny

Now they listed "satoshi" and defined it as:
a satoshi is the smallest monetary unit in the Bitcoin cryptocurrency, and is named after Satoshi Nakamoto, the—probably pseudonymous—developer(s) of Bitcoin.

I'm not sure if there would be any impact on bitcoin's popularity but it's good that the word has been acknowledged although I think it's a bit late.

What word will be next?

Related news: https://cointelegraph.com/news/oxford-english-dictionary-adds-satoshi-bitcoins-smallest-unit





By the way, a question was posted here before How long until "satoshis'" make in into the (oxford) dictionary?, we know the answer now  Grin

It's not really that late but the timing is just right and it's about time, this is the time when people are asking and will ask what and who is Satoshi and  Oxford English Dictionary has to realize that, they should update their database, in the near future some of the common words in the community, will be included like HODL, there will be a lot of words coined in Cryptocurrency that will be included in  Oxford English Dictionary.

I have seen a lot of documentaries and this one is going to be one of the best documentaries about Bitcoin and Blockchain, I hope it will be seen in the public preferably on Youtube, we need a documentary from time to time, as condition of adoption in Cryptocurrency is changing rapidly and every year there is a new milestone happening, if we have  one each year we have a chronicle of what happened in a given year.
6346  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A rise on Bitcoin addresses that holds 1k BTC or more is a bullish sign! on: October 15, 2019, 11:12:51 AM
Recently, there has been a steady increase on the number of unique Bitcoin addresses that holds at least 1k BTC or more and this trend has been consistent for several months now, which started from the earlier period of 2019! As per news articles, most crypto observers had suggested the idea that its possible that big investors and institutions could be behind this trend where it seems they are possibly accumulating BTC under $10k price range.


To my understanding, I think this is a bullish sign for BTC, and whats more exciting is that this trend hasn't happened especially in the 2017 bull market! Kindly share with us your thoughts and ideas about this metric. Smiley

A lot of indications is happening right now, we even have a halving coming up it's going to happen next year, but all the indication and are not converting to what should happen right now, we should be enjoying right now because this should be the time that we are moving to another milestone, but unfortunately it's not happening, we will have to wait before the start of the year before all these materialize.
6347  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Question for fellow Campaign Managers on: October 15, 2019, 08:41:07 AM
Recently, I was managing a signature campaign and there were few slots open just for the Member ranks, but many higher-level users like Full Member and Hero were requesting me to consider their applications and they would be satisfied with the lower pay according to the Member rank.

Is it acceptable to put higher-level users in competition with lower ones for a spot in the signature campaign?
I declined to address such requests, but what if I don't get any applications from good quality posters for the member spot is it then right to choose from higher accounts?

Would really like to hear what you do with your campaigns in such a scenario.

I once applied for a much lower rank just last year but the manager prefers a lower than a hero rank I just realized that when it comes to hiring a participants bounty manager always pick, the one that can follow rules and who can grasp the topic and post wisely and within the topic  I was a lousy poster then but that's a good motivation for me, managers will always go for good posters than rank because they want to protect the reputation of the campaign more than anything else.  
6348  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty hunters needs to start respecting themselves on: October 15, 2019, 08:17:40 AM
Bounty hunters please start claiming your worth, do not go around promoting bounty projects that has too low allocation, i was surfing around on this forum today and i saw new bounty projects that have allocation worth of 1000dollars and they even have separate campaigns, why are people promoting such projects? you are the ones responsible for how developers are treating bounty hunters, there is nothing wrong if you decide not to work for penny... Even some airdrops on this forum has 8$ worth of allocation, just imagine that

If I'm going to promote a bounty campaign, I prefer looking on the potential in the market even if they allocate $1000 if it has a potential I will choose it than the other campaign that allocates millions and failed to get in the market or only worth less than a cent, it's good when bounty was at its heyday but not possible anymore you will be respecting yourself more if you stop believing that this coin is the next big thing online according to their developer.
6349  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New projects are responsible for the death of their tokens on: October 15, 2019, 04:51:16 AM
In this kind of bad altcoin market i am still surprised that some new projects are giving out 50% price tag for their tokens, this is a project killer if you ask me, this move is only good if altcoin season is out and surging, 50percent is way too much in this kind of market we are in presently,  tell me i'm wrong

All these coins, in reality, do not have value at all, until they get in the market and traders start trading them, it's the supply and demand in the market that sets the price, do not be deceived that if you are going to get 50% off you are going to make a profit right away, unless you see that it's the price that traders are putting on that coin, do not carry this kind of thinking when buying, check the platform whitepaper and full details. then you will have the idea.
6350  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Teams showing real faces to public can still scam you on: October 15, 2019, 04:15:16 AM
I am here to confuse people who still think that any new projects that entered crypto space with teams that are able to show their faces on videos and even attend good crypto seminars anywhere around the world have nothing to hide, and they think its real project and far from scam, well the biggest scams in crypto space are able to cater away with that huge money because many believes they are real, The ceo and teams coming out in publics to discuss about the projects doesn't erase the fact that they can scam you.
Bitconnect did the same thing and miracle tele joined too

I would like to add Bitmillex to the list and the infamous Adab, they are doing a lot of webinars but cannot complete what they promise to their supporters, each one of them has a version on how they scam their investors, but in the end, you'll know that they are not doing everything to complete their roadmap and what they promised to their investors, and blames the market for the misery, it's like an endless cycle of keeps blaming the market.
6351  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitconnect Investigation on: October 15, 2019, 12:47:10 AM
This is being investigated and in fact bitconnect founder was already arrested and in jail now.
https://bitcoindata.org/bitconnect-coin-owner-gets-arrested/

it's the job of the investigators now on how to trace the money, but I am sure these scammers are also smart, they have a back up plan for everything.
The founder is in jail now but he is not doing it alone, there are people behind him or part of the team who are enjoy some of the money now.
But those were also enjoying the money is not yet jailed, as far as i know bitconnect team members were also coming from the china and i never seen any update regarding it from the china authority to investigate shitconnect on china.
The founder is who already arrested but shitconnect ceremonial in youtube said if there was a lot of members.

Thye have so many affiliations in so many countries they have chapters on countries, here in our country they have a chapter and other leaders visited us I have often seen it in their Facebook feed because  some of them are my Facebook friends and some of them have learned their lesson, it's a bad lesson to learn and hopefully it will be the last Ponzi scheme in this community.
6352  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why we buy new token or coin? on: October 14, 2019, 05:34:43 PM
What is the most reason to buy new token or new coin, to trade it in the market or to spend it if there something to spend it?
I am talking here that token or coin already listing in exchanges.
And not tokens exchanges such as BNB.
What you think?

All tokens are being bought because of it's potential and the technology attaches to the coin, if it's a security token it will partake of the profit the token has generated in the market, people should not buy because of the volume and the price, because pump and dump do exist and it's a trap that every investor should avoid, when buying a new token to hold.

I feel cheated ... but the fact that every project that promises or claims tokens will eventually increase at a very high price is just nonsense ...
Unfortunately, you found this out later it has been the case after the glory days of 2017

Quote
in a statement on the road map they promised to use project funds for further product development, but they were only trying to take advantage of the investors' black money
People are already aware of this after thousands of reported scamming reported in the scam section, not to mention those that are not reported

Quote
what they have to do is develop their product further, not just start doing it or say all the sweet promises ...
On some project, there's really no platform to speak of if it has one it has no usage to the community

I hope I'm not mistaken about this.
Unfortunately for us, you are right
6354  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fee-less cryptocurrencies...Are they the future? on: October 14, 2019, 04:01:27 PM
Personally, I have found out that fee-less cryptocurrencies are extremely convenient for sending micropayments worldwide. Most of them are blazing-fast in transaction confirmation times, making them an attractive choice on top of Bitcoin or Ethereum. Cryptocurrencies such as EOS, Steem, and Nano have no fees at all, becoming a favorite among several crypto enthusiasts (like me).

However, it's yet to be seen whenever a fee-lees structure is a viable solution for the crypto economy. I mean, if there are no fees on the Blockchain, then how would delegates maintain their loyalty to fee-less cryptocurrencies? I believe that in order to maintain long-term stability, there needs to be an incentive via the collection of fees among the network's users.

Nonetheless, do you think that fee-less cryptocurrencies are the future of the crypto industry? Or are they simply a niche? Huh
Nothing of such will prosper in crypto space, exchanges and new projects have to gain profits to sustain and push the project up to new steps to achieve success, i wonder how a project with zero fee will work, its impossible and if any project offers such its scam project

How can you say that NANO https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/nano/ is in the 49th place, Eos and Steem had a huge market and volume and no one here says that they are a scam, only you posted that, you should go back and school yourself on the various and different algo, so your ignorance will not be exposed, we are in Cryptocurrency and developers are creating a better technology that offers a lot of option to the community.
6355  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: South Korea precedent ruling allows cryptoexchanges to be sued due to lost funds on: October 14, 2019, 02:08:09 PM
That should always be the case, if they cannot insured the funds of their traders or clients they have to pay them when there is a hacking incident, I hope all courts in the world have this kind of ruling, so many exchanges took months or even years to refund their traders after the hacking, all of these should be shouldered by exchange and it's a big warning for exchanges to always upgrade and update their security.
6356  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: Stress and Happiness on: October 14, 2019, 01:21:30 PM


In my almost four years of getting involved (just an ordinary holder and part-time trader, nothing so great actually), I am so sure that Bitcoin can be a major source of stress especially if you bought them at a higher price and then the price made some slide. Now, I am not saying that it is Bitcoin's fault because stress in the first place depends a lot on our perception and how we are managing it. But definitely, we can categorize as a stressor at some degree.

On the other hand, Bitcoin can also be the source of "happiness" especially when the coin is having a great time jumping upwards. Certainly, there can be euphoria if in 2020 Bitcoin can go higher that its 2017 ATH. Bitcoin is known for extreme volatility and it can go from one side to the other in matter of hours and days.

No wonder that Steve Wozniak the Apple co-founder sold his bitcoin because riding the roller coaster stressed him out.

How do you manage any possible stress coming from Bitcoin's volatility?

It doesn't have to be this way, nothing will change the way Bitcoin performs in the market, it always goes up and always goes down, it's how we educate and prepare ourselves before we entered the market that makes the big difference, is has been said a million times, only invest what you can afford to lose, if you have this thought and you are prepared then you have no problem if the market goes up and goes down.

Lol. What a joke. I don't even know this exchange exists. Does this mean they just overcome their competitors like Binance or Kicking? That's BS man. The analysis is not so accurate. The fee is quite good tho. But I still don't believed it.

Vindax $340,415,722 USD, they are not even half of Binance volume am I checking the right stat or he is looking another way, all talks are on Binance I don't know is the report coming, you need to prove your point this is new to us, are you giving us fake news.
6358  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A Community With No Libra, Bakkt, ETFs and Institutions on: October 14, 2019, 10:46:21 AM
The topic describes the issue for us. For us to become a decentralized, we should focus more on mass adoption. I know these may provide some mass adoption but with centralized adoption, it is useless and contradiction for bitcoin itself.

We cannot stop this from happening, it's bound to happen first, they will hate, then they will ignore you then they will praise you, then they will want to be with you, Facebook and these companies hate Bitcoin for the disruption they are bringing to the ecosystem, now after ten years, they want to be with us and they want to exploit this technology to their advantage, soon they will conquer us.
6359  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Every tiny piece of Bitcoin is worth it! on: October 14, 2019, 08:45:12 AM
Back in the days i used to disregard some pennies of my bitcoins in several exchanges thinking that these coins would never be worth it looking at its price at the moment. However, this idea came into my mind about some few weeks ago that what if Bitcoin reaches a double of its previous all time or even greater once this long awaited global adoption sets in.

Seriously this made me think twice and have made me roam through all my exchange accounts and wallets making sure that i have access to them in order to cash out all those pieces of bitcoin if they ever become worth it again. This may sound quite silly but i am quite optimistic about it Grin

I doubt if you can cash out a small amount of Bitcoin, it will just spend for your transaction fees unless Bitcoin reaches to 6 digits and the fee is much lower, but why to withdraw those amount, you can use it for transaction fee, or trade for altcoins with a lower transaction fee, I've been doing that and it's profitable, I even use that when I withdraw my earnings and my profit from trading on Yobit.
6360  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: as a publisher paid for with bitcoin? on: October 14, 2019, 01:48:31 AM
which platform to pay the publisher blog with bitcoin?
as I know as many publishers who register it on google adsense and others in it.

I want to generate bitcoin / crypto assets from writing articles on blogs. I am tired of using Google adsen, I want to try a platform that pays with bitcoin or other crypto assets.

____________________________________________________________
note: please let me know if it has been discussed, I will delete it.

Steemit and publish0x.com are two blogging platforms that reward you Crypto assets for using their platform, you can earn two ways here, by posting your content and rewarding publishers and voting them, not really big amount of Crypto but as long as you are promoting your blog and actively rewarding bloggers that crypto assets will grow, and those Crypto assets are coins with good potential in the market.
