6641  Economy / Services / Re: [CFNP] IOS - Signature & Avatar Campaign | Up to $150/week - (Extended) on: June 26, 2018, 02:10:41 AM
Wow great news! And really glad and thankful for Cin the Italian IOSt telegram moderator for contacting the necessary people in order for them to be able to reach out to MadZ and now confirm that they are at least alive Grin we'll all be waiting for the update and see what is going on! Glad that nothing too crazy has happened at least.

Wasn't able to post during the previous week not because I'm pissed for not being paid but because I got sick myself. Hope though that Madz is doing ok, because I remember one campaign wherein the manager suddenly went MIA so it was really a messed. However, it turn out to be that the campaign manager got sick and was hospitalized as far as I can remember. And thanks for the Italian IOST Telegram moderator for stepping up and reaching the necessary people.
6642  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Price < $3000 soon on: June 18, 2018, 11:24:26 PM
I don't think BITCOIN will reach < 3000$....... it's already at very low prices and I think that strong hands will buy in a very short time so market and BITCOIN will grow faster than ever.

Of course it could really happen. But I don't think that its possible at this point because bitcoin has somewhat recovered again and might test the $7K barrier. It was scary though to see the price bottom again this year and everyone was kinda frustrated and just sold them off thinking that it can go down further. Alas, last couple of days we are slowly bouncing back and hope that its going to be sustainable as least till we break $7K and move further away from the last bottom price.

Have a read of this chat log from the EOS Block Producer Telegram: https://pastebin.com/wD7V4EU5

Pay special attention to the part where they agree to just print more tokens for themselves as needed.

Why would anyone with any sense invest in EOS?

Lol. That's obviously manipulation in their end and they agree to create more tokens and the worst part is that is being reserved for them. If its true then will go the path of XRP as well, too much hype and the people from behind are just enriching themselves. I really don't understand why people are totally sold EOS though, for me its just too much hype. It might end up a good pump-and-dump coins for all we know.

The only possible strategy in bounty is to try to get one that at least pays. If you achieve that you are already in a very good path frankly.

Right because there are a lot of bounty which promises good pay but at the end, its a total scam and suddenly disappear and didn't pay the bounty participants who works very hard. I like to join bounty at the beginning to maximize profit. I don't want to join bounties in the middle as you might get less tokens. I remember joining a bounty before, but after a week I move out because when I check their website there were obvious signs that something wrong with the said project and I was correct because the project suddenly closes in less than a month.
6645  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Remember when Bitcoin was new and..... on: June 18, 2018, 09:46:45 PM
I wish I knew about bitcoin in 2011, otherwise I would have invested on a large and now would have had a very good profit. Previously, I did not believe in bitcoin for a long time thought that it was fraud.

Well you are not the only one who already know bitcoin back in 2011 but chooses to ignore it. I already knew bitcoin in 2011 but I never thought that it will be where it is right now. I thought that its nothing but a fad, however, I was totally wrong and regret not fully understands what it can really bring that time. I didn't think it was a fraud though, more of a fad that will simply go away when all the hype is gone.
6646  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: why does coins change price constantly? on: June 18, 2018, 09:11:05 PM
Why does coins prices fluctuate so much and it is never been constant making predicting price much harder and much riskier and holding on to coins can be the best way right now.

why does it change prices constantly and never stagnant?

For me, in my own opinion the value of a coin is tied purely to the laws of supply and demand. In other words, the price is determined only by what the market is willing to pay. If more people want to buy bitcoins, then the price will increase. If more people want to sell, the price will decrease.

Secondly its value can be volatile when compared to more established currencies and commodities.



Yes, that's simply the main reason, why the price of a coins changes so quickly. If there's no demand for it, of course the price will just go down and when people started to offloading the coins into the market, obviously the price become cheap as well and the opposite happen is there is a high demand. That's why you will hear people saying how volatile this market is. Well, because of volatility, traders are profiting, so we must learn how to embrace it as well.
6647  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What affects your decision to take part in a Bounty Campaign? on: June 17, 2018, 11:37:50 PM
Hello everyone!

I faced several Bounty campaigns and I have seen a lot of them with pretty similar conditions and requirements to participate. When I had a look at their Spreadsheets, I have found that the number of bounty hunters is different! There was a huge difference between the number of participants and the date of Bounty Campaign launch was the same (there was a difference of several dates between the launch dates). Their ideas were great, very promising, and the relationship between community managers and their community was excellent: great potential investors attention, fast replies, polite and useful explanations...

My question is: "What makes you choose one Bounty campaign and not another? What are the key factors that highly influence your decision? What are you looking for at the first sight and what do you expect from it before starting your participation and register in the Bounty?

(Don't know if this or similar topic exists, I haven't found one, sorry if it's already created)


Of course the project itself, you need to look at who is the team behind and if the project has a lot of potentials. Because we all know that projects can disappear, I think its also better to look who are managing the campaign. Usually trusted managers are so experienced that they wouldn't accept a project that they think could be a potential scam.

Would love to join a project that is really unique or a project like trying to penetrate the trading platform industry or introducing something new that will change the landscape of crypto industry. That's some project that I would like to join in the future though.
6648  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is there a possibility that Ethereum will reach $200 this year? on: June 17, 2018, 11:21:38 PM
Ethereum price has diminish to extend that holding it is no longer profitable hence traders are seeking for safe place to keep their money. If no positive news about ether don't surface I don't doubt that Ether will be 200 usd by the end of the year.

Well crypto market has proven that everything is possible. Remember bitcoin's dramatic free fall? it could happen to ETH a well as its on the borderline $400-$500. However, it looks like there are new statement from dev's that might turn around this down trend.

https://www.coindesk.com/proposed-ethereum-roadmap-activate-biggest-upgrades-together/

Looks promising. So let wait and see how it pans out and hope that ETH can have a big boost with this news.
6649  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Dangerous price area on: June 17, 2018, 10:58:34 PM
Stop mining if you really have a good miner right now, because it is not going to give you many profits. The same if you are trading, you are risking your money because of a bad market


But I'm sure that if one miner completely stops today, one will pick it up so the cycle continues. As for the dangerous levels, we have seen bitcoin floored in April and playing around the $6K range but mining didn't stop. So I don't think that miners will just shut it down because they are not earning at today's situation. But I'm sure that they have save enough for the rainy days that as business man, they can still operate at the current price and breaks even or even suffer a lost but its minimal that they would rather take the risk to continue doing it.
6650  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What are your thoughts on energy projects? on: June 17, 2018, 10:35:00 PM
There is a lot of talk of various projects and the future of the market but I am curious on everyone's opinions on the future of blockchain energy projects like Power Ledger, Restart Energy, Sun Contract, etc.

Do you think these really have the potential to completely change the way people buy and sell energy?

Good question. Sun Contract ICO has started last year isn't it? But we still haven't felt the impact of it. So I think it will take years, probably 5 - 10 years to realized the full potential of such projects. Unless some well know big players in the Energy industry started to promote as the best alternatives in today's power and energy issue, then it could take off. However, for me its too early to say if it will bring the needed change in the way people consume or buy or sell energy. Also, I think the government should spearhead some of the projects, I think its also one good reason to see its impact on a country at least.
6651  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin and the ICO on: June 17, 2018, 10:00:25 PM
the huge amounts of new ICOS that arise every month could be hurting the price of bitcoin? you who think about the ICO?

Yeah, it could probably have a impact on the price of bitcoin because investors are now shifting their funds to some ICO and would rather take the risk there (which doesn't make any sense at all) than put their money on bitcoin ecosystem.

It depends if these are new money going into crypto to buy ICOs or people using their existing ETH or BTC to buy into ICOS... Then new legit projects will benefit crypto as whole

Obviously, there's no money flowing to the bitcoin ecosystem, but you will see a lot of ICO's hitting their softcap in a matter of days which led me to conclude that people are liquidating their bitcoin and join ICO project.
6652  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: lowest price period ? on: June 16, 2018, 08:37:41 PM
We could see bitcoin at $5000 if this support doesnt hold and its looking pretty shitty.

I agree that bitcoin is looking pretty shit right now and we might see it going around $5800 range. However, I'm still confident that we can still go recover at the end of the year.

Regarding, the lowest price period, no one can say the specifics. Most of the traders rely on TA, but we all know that the market doesn't work that way and TA is somewhat not applicable. When others pointed out the price could go this way, bitcoin suddenly goes on the opposite. Plus this is based on hype, speculation, so its hard to say where the price is going to be.
6653  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Top 100 Altcoins Bleeding Today.. on: June 16, 2018, 07:35:46 PM
As BTC is going down to some lower value so rest of the Altcoins are also going down with same rate.Today i Analyzed Coin marketcap and found that almost top 100 coins are falling down.Market is severe red.So i think this is another good change for potential investor to invest as more as one can.

At the time of your writing, yes almost all of the coins where in a bloodbath because everyone of them has a correlation with bitcoin price. We all know that bitcoin suddenly crashes bringing with it almost all the altcoins and the whole crypto market. It's just really sad, but we can't do anything. For now bitcoin has somewhat recovered, but still its below the price that we expect it to be this June.

I guess the only thing we can do is not to panic and just waited it out. The last week was really scary and sort of disappointment. But then again, we know how this market works, its very volatile and we all know that sooner or later we are going to make another break out run so keep calm.
6654  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bounty without manager? on: June 16, 2018, 12:29:28 PM
Why is the bounty still centralized? I think that it would be cool if the participants themselves moderated other participants.

The scheme is very simple.
1. A part of the bounty is allocated to moderation. For example, 10%.
2. Every day, bounty members receive random tasks for moderation the work of other participants. Tasks are randomly distributed.
Example of task. A member of the bounty wrote a tweet about bounty company. You need to read the tweet and rate it. You can rate tweet as good or scam. If tweet is scam you must write why
3. Every task checked by 5 - 30 peoples. Task marked as "well done" only if 70% peoples mark it as good. This mechanism is similar to the transaction confirmation mechanism in blockchain. The difference is that blockchain use 51% rule.
4. For every task members get stack. At the end of bounty stacks calculated and members receive tokens for moderation.
5. Accounts whose ratings differ from most people will very often will be banned. This is mechanism from blockchain too. This will remove members who want to reduce the number of stacks and get more reward.

All system must be transparent for all and based on bitcointalk accounts. What do you think about it?




UPD: Manager still needed but work only on content creation and news.

This is one of the worst idea that I have ever heard since I have been in this community. You mean a campaign with 100 members will do random task and checked its every member of the campaign . LOL. This will solely defeat the purpose of a bounty wherein everyone should do one duty, that is to promote the project they have joined.

I think you should go back and read everything in the forum dude, before making any suggestion like this because it doesn't really makes any sense at all. And who will judge who are accepted or not? For all we know, a campaign with 100 participants can be all alts with one person having the steering wheel and driving it out.
6655  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have NEVER seen Bitcoin in such a sorry state as this!! on: June 16, 2018, 11:30:46 AM
I agree with your post! There are many problems to solve since Bitcoin will be aligible for a really mass global instrument like fiat currency or company shares or bonds...

I don't think that you understand why Bitcoin was created in the first place. Satoshi envisioned it as a payment platform without involving third party. So if you think that it should be considered as company shares or bond then you are wrong with your assumptions.

I hope Bitcoin will rescue from this current state... Price decline everyday. the problem is also cause by a great concentration of wealth in few hands (whales) they can manipulate the price trend as they want..... this is a huge mistake too... Bitcoin can't be a worldwide currency... Decentralization should also be in the possession of weath not only in the creation of the currency!! Nakamoto did a great work in creating this awesome technology. But for build a better world we must find equilibriums... If you know what I mean.


We have been hearing about this whales and manipulations. But since this is decentralize, meaning without any central authority to overlook, chances are whales will continue their fraudulent act so we must accept it. I don't know what equilibriums are you saying here, but this market is based on pure speculation so I doubt that we can find any.
6656  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy This Dip or Wait ? on: June 16, 2018, 11:02:25 AM
If you have any alts which you didn't sell in last high, now it is better wait for rising Bitcoin till $ 7700 - 7800 and sell them there. But the price may not overcome the resistance at the level of 7000. Then it will be necessary to sell all the altcoins, as the Bitcoin price may drop to 4500.

I disagree with the drop of $4500, I'm seeing the bottom at around $5800 though. But it looks like there's strong support at $6500 right now because the price is just trading around that price for the last couple of days. So I think that best time to buy is during the $6K range. But at the current rate, I'm still think that you can buy in small portion and then waited it out and see if the price could go deeper.

If the price didn't go to let say the $6K-$6200 range then at least you have still got it where the price is also at a discount. You really need to be very intelligent right now because the price keeps fluctuating in just a matter of hours. But the main point is that the price is still cheap and you don't need to have that kind of second thoughts whether to invest or not.
6657  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy in or opt out? on: June 16, 2018, 12:47:24 AM
This is the time to be strong and Patient. The patient ones in crypto always win at the end of the day. Why should you opt out when you have been able to stand the various falls that came in crypto market. Your winning time is close and you should wait and enjoy.

You're right, why would anyone opt out now when the market is down and the potential at making money is rising? In a few months everything will reset and coins prices will rise again.

Exactly, As I have said, this is a perfect time to buy in and not to opt out. If you opt out right now then when you are going to re-enter? When the market has already recovered? It doesn't sounds healthy if you are a investor. Usually investors see's money when the market is going red. And once we recovered (we don't know when its gonna happen), at least you have place your investment in the right time and can gain the fruits of it in the future.
6658  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum TO $400 AGAIN on: June 15, 2018, 07:45:32 PM
I think the price this year will not fall below $ 400.  But there will be no strong growth this year.

It looks like ETH has gotten to $500 again, but we don't know if this is just another bear trap because we have seen in already multiples times in the past. Around last month we see it goes as high as $700 and I thought that me might witness it go even further.

But as the market continues to bleed, ETH suffered another major blow plus there is a threat from EOS. If ETH holders dumps again in favor of EOS we might see the price even go below $400 which is what I'm worried about. This market is really very hard to predict and no one knows where the price will go and when everyone thought that we are safe, but something unexpected happen.
6659  Economy / Speculation / Re: discuss the market? on: June 15, 2018, 06:48:29 PM
The market is currently in a deep downtrend, in my opinion, btc may be down to 5k5 then turn up strong! What do you think?

Isn't it that bitcoin has recovered to $6500 already? Why is people still trying to predict that it will go down further. I understand that we are in a bear situation for half a year, but does it mean that people are giving up and thinking that bitcoin will goes go below way way below?

I see thread popping saying that bitcoin will go as low as $1K-$2K which really surprises me. Don't they fully trusted that bitcoin is so resilient from all this FUD that it can bounce back again? I'm sure that we are a bit on a struggle but I'm very optimistic that we can hurdle all this barriers.
6660  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is the bear season over yet on: June 14, 2018, 11:58:31 PM
I'm sad to say that we might see a long bear season. No one thought that we can go on like this, 2014 all over again. On a side note, as bulls cannot penetrate the market right now, it doesn't mean that the bears will go and rule this market for a long time.

Experienced tells me that the bulls are just around the corner, waiting for that perfect opportunity to make its move and go for another break out run. All we need is to have more patience as this bear market will be soon over. I'm hoping that one good news will sway the investors to pour in their cash again so that we can make another bull run up to December.
