6441  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The KYC scam on: November 01, 2018, 12:28:32 PM
I believe the projects are using KYC as a ploy to not payout after bounty hunters have already done the work.  I see more and more of these surprise KYC requirements after the work is done.  This is clearly being done to seize the funds of the bounty hunters who are not willing to give personal data to god knows who. 

Very clever trick. They are trying to use us then ask for requirements which go directly against the movement. 

I'm not sure about that as well. I wanted to think that KYC should be implemented at the beginning of the ICO and not after. Bounty hunters should be aware in the beginning to say the least to not doubt the project itself.

But looking at the last hundreds of ICO's that's been popping around, the issue started when the distribution of bounty started, they're enforcing KYC but at the back of my mind its not the reason why they don't want to pay the bounty hunters, maybe there's other reasons that really deemed KYC is needed.

The price of Bitcoin is tied to stocks, the dollar and other various factors.

How strongly are the "tied" together? Present the data showing, and proving that it's true before making statements based on nothing but assumptions.



I meant - many experts tie the course of Bitcoin to various factors. Personally, I am not) Therefore, I can’t connect the data to confirm availability.

Maybe one good case is the recent crash of stock market that trickle to crypto, I think it started from EU then quickly affected the US and Asian stocks  and the domino effect reaches crypto as well. I'm looking for the article and will try to update this thread. And I've seen it discussed in this community as well  Grin

What do you expect? Its not that those bounty hunters are getting bitcoin. They are getting tokens which we really don't know if it has a bright future or not? Besides, those who have been working for months needs something in return, so the Hodl approach for bounty hunters is not that applicable.

For me HODLing or the long haul is better appropriate to bitcoin signature campaigns, imho.

Follow what the posters above me said,

Cool project! Go ahead!

I think you need to improved the quality of your post and not just one liner "Cool project" stuff. It has nothing to do with posting 2 a week, it has something to dow with the quality of your post to get at least 1 merit to rank up to Junior Member again. The question is, are you up to the task?
6445  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: A Question To All Signature Bounty Hunters! on: October 29, 2018, 02:25:23 PM
There are many options while I'm choosing any bounty. First of all, I partcipate only in ICOs which have already reached soft cap. Also it must have strong community and interesting product. And at the end, I like when the project has mvp.

But do you think you miss a lot though? I mean if you are there from the beginning prior to the soft cap then you should get a bigger piece of the pie? MVP though for me is not a good indication as they can be bought off to make a good review about a project, just saying. At the end of the day, its going to be a iss or hit for every bounty hunter and there's this thing called luck as well.

when you sell all the bitcoin you have, you may feel relieved, but you will definitely feel sorry for being too panicked and selling all the assets you have at a cheap price.

Well he/she can still buy at cheap price just like today so the OP has made the right decision to dump everything when the price is still high. And that's how everyone should really be, take profits, don't be emotional and silently accumulate bitcoins when the price is at a discount. And wait for another bull run before you make your decisions to sell-off and then rinse and repeat.
6447  Economy / Speculation / Re: China on: October 29, 2018, 02:03:43 PM
What will be the effects of China's self imposed exclusion from crypto? not only to the bitcoin price, but to China's economy if/when bitcoin goes huge?

As far as I know they are already out of the picture since they made a U-turn back in Sept of last year so I don't see any effect whatsoever if you are talking about the price. Of course they have the total monopoly of the mining industry but sooner or later if they crack it down then its gonna be beneficial for the ecosystem because we can finally say goodbye to them and bitcoin mining could scattered around the globe, monopoly crushed.
6448  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Worldwide blockchain developers stats on: October 29, 2018, 01:53:17 PM
I'm pleasantly surprised with India they ban cryptocurrency but it is still listed as one of the tops anyway some of the cryptocurrency developers are from India their people are some of the best coder and developers their government should take ease in cryptocurrency, they have a lot of talented people there.

Because India is still inclined to technology. With their huge population, its just a matter of time before they found their niche and fortunately, its in the IT sector. I remember back then (prior to 00's), there are a lot of expats in our company and most of them are from India or are India descent from US.
6449  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Question about p&d on: October 28, 2018, 12:38:06 AM
Hi!  Smiley
I know p&d but I've never tried it before

A good friend showed me his benefits on Big Pump Signal, about 5% in the last 2 weeks, I believe so, but I've always heard that these things were a scam.

This group has more than 100k members, do you think that's how this particular group is benefiting?

And the only one benefiting is the admin or those who are part of the upper "echelons". Well its good if your friend is making a good money, but he paid to be a member though? Well the more the merrier but those who are in the latter group will just get few profits unless new members gets it because it works like sort of pyramiding. And chances are if you are sleeping during their dump then I'm sure you will be at the losing end so just be cautious.

This is great news! Hopefully other countries can see the advantages in accepting cryptocurrencies and follow suit.

Yea, definitely this is a great news for every Filipino. I can say that the government is really progressing in every aspect and I'm glad the current government of Duterte although his policy is very harsh and controversial, he seems not to be bothered by this crypto revolution and all those in the seat seems to be welcoming it, so what a surprised. If countries progressive nation will just follow what Asia is doing, then crypto will go to the next level and will be globally adopted in about 5 years.
6451  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Trading, campaigns, gambling or mining? on: October 27, 2018, 11:58:36 PM
until now I still continue to campaign and the results I get hold because the price is still not good. currently daily trading for me is more profitable, because market dynamics continue to occur especially in large markets such as binance, OKEx and huobi. no need to be greedy in taking profits, just 5% if you are consistent then you will be the winner

As this point, we really don't need to be greedy because the market is in the bear market and I agree that we should take any profit we can. And I'm sure that majority still see's campaign as the best options with no risk at our end and then we can earn cryptos. And when we gain experience, all the crypto we've save through campaigns can be channel to the next steps, which is trading and then the sky is the limit for everyone there.
6452  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A lot of hacks, whats the solution? on: October 27, 2018, 11:49:16 PM
DEX is not the solution though, the solution is, do research and read about the facts! you have to be smarter than those smelly hackers! Buy a ledger or trezor hardware wallet, never take a picture of your phrase code, write on an offline paper. Never keep your coins on exchanges for a long time. If you follow these things then I can ensure, you are safe.

But the problem is that there's a lot of noob investors in the market. Remember we are taking off in the last few years and hackers also stepping their game. So its really hard for us to really and hackers are having their field day stealing money out of unsuspecting victims. So we need to be very very careful not be a victim him and do everything at our power to prevent such attacks.

6453  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Waiting for BTC and ETH to moon, What about Digitex? on: October 22, 2018, 12:36:49 PM
Hello guys;

I have just noticed in CoinMarketCap that Digitex Coin, has increased in its price with more than 1100% since ICO, even if their product isn't launched yet (they will launch it next December).

What do you think about this Futures Exchanges, first of its kind I think in crypto world?

Thank you

Well that's how ICO supposed to be right? They should be pump prior to launched so that we can ride and get profits when it launches.  Grin

There's a lot of exchanges in the pipeline already like TIO and UTT and others. As for the futures, its really hard to say because Binance coin and Kucoin has set the started so high already and its hard for other startup exchange to catch up.
6454  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think mining is still fair on: October 22, 2018, 12:19:54 PM
It is not at at all. Mining is loseing its participants but really large organizations that have farms are there because their volumes get over all wasted resources.

Solo mining is no longer profitable specially bitcoin. But I heard that you can still make profits mining altcoins because you don't know those hi-end gears just to mine them.

But then again, you need to take in consideration lots of factors like cost of electricity, maintenance of the farm. If you think you can get cheap electricity then you should at least experience mining. I'm unlucky though electricity cost in our place is so expensive. But if given the chance, I still love to mine altcoins.
6455  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Lose to gain on: October 22, 2018, 11:56:29 AM
Of course not all investments is a 100% guarantee to make you profits so its also applicable to crypto market as well. Its not how you play the game, but how long are you willing to stay in the game even though everyone is on the negative side because of the bear market.

So its a long journey, everyone needs a lot of patience and we should also learn from our past mistakes. And that makes us a experienced trader and sooner or later we will make good decisions because of the lots of mistakes that we have encounter before. Experience is the best teacher.
6456  Other / Meta / Re: Negative Year, Positive Future on: October 17, 2018, 04:18:59 PM
It’s almost a year that I’ve lost my interest in posting in this forum, but never have abandoned or not a day visiting this community of bitcoin lovers. I do read topics on my interest, but shamelessly not replying because on a red tag. Now that I have cleared myself from an accusation that I have not done intentionally, I’m back for good.

Bitcoin is my world now as always and crypto is our currency. The future is here and to give up on it and to go back to the real world is like going back to the past. I don’t know if I will be accepted as I was, but does everyone does deserve a second chance.

Inactivity and merit is not the issue now, gaining momentum of posting constructive threads and post will be a challenge as merit sources have high standards of rewarding it.

I dunno if this the right section for this or in meta, it will be move accordingly. IF

Wow its almost been a year since you last post but I'm glad your back and I don't think that you miss a lot because as you have said you didn't abandoned this community but just lurking from behind.

Sometimes is really hard to see our account get tagged so obviously you lost interest. How did you red trust removed though?

Anyways, yes, its been a down trend for almost a year but you should look at the big picture because we all know that sooner or later we will make a good recovery and we might see another ATH again.
6457  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: which part of bounty could be more profitable on: October 14, 2018, 08:50:57 PM
Which part of bounty could be more profitable ?
Some people say that signature is the one . and some people prefer content creation or translation .
What do you think ?
Translation is profitable but the main problem is that competition here is very high. I tried to apply for translation several times, but there is always somebody who was the first to take translation.
That's why I personally prefer signatures and don't waste my time on FB and Twitter.

Right. competition is very tough because there are a lot of good translators and obviously project will choose the best among the rest so its going to be difficult specially if you don't have any portfolio yet.

Signature campaigns used to pay more before, however since there's a lot of cheaters right now, the percentage is really reduced to 10% and as high as 20%.
6458  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China Influences Cryptos, Like It or Not! on: October 14, 2018, 03:25:39 AM
One of the things that I don't understand most is this Chinese issue. Everyone expects a move from the US, but most of the mining activity is being done in China. I don't know if Bitcoin could have survived without Asian countries.

Because of the abundance of electricity plus their environment as well, that's why China is really suited for mining. But as I have said, Bitmain is slowly looking for viable place as well.

6459  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO Reviews, trust them or NOT? on: October 14, 2018, 03:15:27 AM
I think the best place to find better ICO is bitcointalk as at now. The review than here by some hardworking members is good enough to help you escape scam ICOs. There are ICOs with legit team yet, they ended up to be a scam so a team may have 100% legit team but still end up to be a scam. I think the solution is to invest what we can afford to lose because the reviewers are not responsible for your losses.


Good point because lots of ICO review site has no good basis for their ratings they are basing on the papers that the team provides, reviews from the users are most likely much appreciatee rather than the other forms of review.

And not only that reviewer as we all know are getting paid as well. As for me, I just look at those reviews but I still do my due diligence to research more and not just depend on what others are saying. Majority are scams so we need to do everything before taking part on any ICO's. Much better to be prepared not to be sorry later.
6460  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin going towards the dark on: October 14, 2018, 03:05:45 AM
You say bitcoin will be nearing destruction, I think it's too fast to draw conclusions. Bitcoin does have an unstable price due to market demand and supply, and if selling too much can make the price of bitcoin lower, but I think the market will return to health and will make the price of bitcoin high again.

On the contrary, I'm seeing the price in recent months to be stable around the $6k-$6.5k which means at least we have all weathered the storm and that the price is no longer reaching bottom. This is a good sign to us as compare to altcoins who have suffered since the beginning of the year and bitcoin won't bleed anymore.
