721  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: {Facts} Benefits of promoting (joining) a quality paid signature campaign. on: April 28, 2019, 09:13:38 AM
Enjoyed reading all this and just an addition if I may, I have observed that joining a quality signature campaign helps improve quality posting (just seen this in the OP), write with better english and in the long term knowledge is attained which makes it easy to break the language barrier.
In short new skills are learnt !

722  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are utility tokens dying? on: April 28, 2019, 08:42:45 AM
Not dying per say, most utility coins(tokens) could be failing to break the market because of poor marketing and not getting to the intended users.

I would like to think these coins are more of trading assets than they are of utility.
723  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about the gambling site's having a promotion? on: April 28, 2019, 07:35:54 AM
AFAIK most gambling promotions are part of these companies marketing strategies to expand their operations and most of the time they are fair I must say.
Promos like money back guarantee when you make a parley and loss by a game, deposit bonuses and everything in those lines...I think it's a good way to keep clients glued and coming back for more.
724  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will Hit 6000$ Before april last date ? on: April 28, 2019, 05:45:58 AM
Can i expact bitcoin can hit 6000$ before the last date of this month ?
Unfortunately it's a NO because bitcoin doesn't have the support to push it up to 6k in the few days we have left.

because i am feeling if UDST  CEO prove With All neccesy decuments for there coin then market instant pump in a minutes
am a right >?
I know when bitcoin prices go down, it goes down with most (maybe all) altcoins. But one alt to have so much influence on btc prices... I don't think so unless this alt was the cause of a bearish market.
725  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I ForeSEE EVIL Coming TO ALL Bitcoin Communities!! (SOUND WARNING) on: April 28, 2019, 05:24:20 AM
As far as I know most governments are based on democratic processes, so if regulations are to be made they probably will be done in the interest of its people.

And if am right communities like these help give insights about the consequences regulation could have on the crypto ecosystem.
726  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which coin do you think is best for gambling? on: April 27, 2019, 07:29:06 PM
Any coin that does not take long for transactions to confirm are good to go...

But my top coins for gambling have to be dogecoin, ethereum and ethereum classic all because of their short block times
727  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin can't be banned on: April 26, 2019, 08:31:20 PM
they say united we stand, divided we fall...using this same ideology we are widely spread making it difficult to curtail it under their control.

And Bitcoin can't be banned simply because our governments can't bring it under their control despite having the tools that make btc possible, the internet.
728  Economy / Collectibles / Re: POLL-What is the definition of a Physical Bitcoin to you? on: April 25, 2019, 02:13:22 PM
Quote
Any token or coin with a Bitcoin Logo on it
Being bitcoin branded does not make it a physical bitcoin this might be just some crypto merchandise or crypto memorabilia

Quote
Any token or coin with a Bitcoin Logo AND LOADED with Digital Bitcoin
This definition comes close to defining a physical bitcoin but I think it kind of defines a wallet...like a paper wallet, but in this case this could be called a coin wallet too.

729  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [GUIDE]Beginners Protect Yourself from Ransomware!!! on: April 25, 2019, 10:42:55 AM
You mentioned Malwarebytes in the OP being a good security software and a good anti-malware which i have personally used for a long time believing it had the said qualities  Roll Eyes but unfortunately about a month ago or so my PC was infected by some malware called Gandcrab which literally encrypted my files and made my pc unusable unless i paid the required ransome of ~$1000.... of course i did not pay the ransome because someone from some forum said a fix would come after a few months, which came as expected but i had no time to wait...went with a fresh copy of windows to get back a working PC. 

But i would like to know if its possible that some of these companies in this data security business could be behind some of these notorious malware's because i found it odd that only one company successfully decrypted infected PCs.

Well, what do you think is the positive impact on the crypto industry, and at the same time what is the negative impact of it. It seems to me that cryptocurrency will be known because it will be use to a product by a big company and it will be on their upcoming latest phone, it will create awareness at the same time it can set aside those negative about crypto.What do you think?

Here is the link: https://www.theblockcrypto.com/2019/01/24/samsung-galaxy-s10-images-show-embedded-cryptocurrency-wallet/
Besides the negative sentiments crypto receives... awareness is certainly on the agenda!!
And with several big companies jumping on the crypto boat, this is an opportunity served on a silver platter for companies that want to draw the crypto community towards their business and this is happening at a fast rate.

This seasons top four finish is heading for a dramatic finish with the way today's results are coming....
I don't remember the last time teams had to play all 38 games to know their fate.
Liverpool and City will have to play till the last game then for third and fourth we have Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal all fighting for these spots and worse off last week these teams dropped points which I find unusual  Undecided
733  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Is $25 XLM worth your privacy (identify). on: April 24, 2019, 11:12:09 AM
Speaking about the ongoing stellar airdrop by blockchain.com which started as a fair one but now requires those interested in the airdrop to pass some KYC procedures, I ask, is it worth it? We complain of Facebook, Google etc of stealing our privacy and possible selling them for profit to other companies and praise blockchain of been decentralized yet we're willing to sell our private details to some centralized organization offering services related to the blockchain technology and we think it's safer? I get it that the bear market has affected numerous newbie that came into the market in 2017 but I ask again is just $25 worth your privacy?
Of course $25 isn't worth our privacy/identity! But try look at this from another angle.....
Imagine if this whole process was done without kyc... people would have abused the giveaway because this is open to everyone in the world....which means high competition for the few slots avalaible, so one way to give equal opportunities to all is to use KYC.

I suspect this moved by them as a deliberate attempt to steal users private details (identify), first they made the airdrop looks so simple and easy thereby deceiving numerous customers into believing they would get free $25 after they have trapped their victim, they then introduce kyc to steal their identity.
The thing with bounties,giveaways, airdrops and anything related to freebies is these always attract certain people trying to cheat the system and as far as I know KYC is one of the ways used to try and discourage cheating and  make this a fair process.
734  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Craig Wright claims to be Satoshi? Here is what he should do ... on: April 24, 2019, 08:52:33 AM
He should post from this accounts https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3 claiming it is Craig or else Craig is a fraud.

He is claiming that in case he proves that he is Satoshi, then the FBI can arrest him for an array of charges. And at this point of time, I can't say that his arguments are without any basis. Every month or so, I am reading news reports about Bitcoin users in the US arrested for "illegal money transmitting" charges. So his reluctance is perfectly justified.
Could he be slapped with a charge of being an "accomplice to fraud" Huh

Craig Wright claims to be Satoshi
Not this again and for someone that I thought was smart & the king of anonymity, this move of revealing himself to the world kind of contradicts with his invention(btc) ...

He should post from this accounts https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3 claiming it is Craig or else Craig is a fraud.
Even if he wanted to, I don't think he will ever be coming back, which I would also do....

736  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you have info about the best IEO token sale? and where is the IEO held? on: April 23, 2019, 08:06:19 PM
I thought ICOs where dead gone because of shitcoins being offloaded on the market, but now a new word has emerged which is IEO which I am seeing frequently and promises some success based on what I have found on Google.

737  Other / Serious discussion / Re: A Bullying experiment on: April 23, 2019, 06:16:22 PM
A very sad experiment conducted in a Burger King. First a a kid gets bullied, pushed around etc to see how people will react. After that the customers get served with a crushed burger. The results are staggering! 95 of the customers who were served a crushed burger reported it and demanded a new one but only 12% of customers tried to protect the bullied kid.

This reminded me of a case dating back a few years ago that took place in a neighbouring country. A 16 year old kid gets attacked in a tram by two 17 year olds. One pulls a knife and stabs him repeatedly in the chest. The boy dies before the paramedics arrived. A tram full of grown men and women stood by as a kid got beaten and stabbed and didn't do anything. But hey, at least they didn't record it so that they could have a cool video to share on their facebook page.

Take a look at the video on youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnKPEsbTo9s
Welcome to the 21st century where situations like these need someone to step-in immediately when things are about to turn out ugly but instead people opt to take out their smart phones to capture everything on camera for the personal gain.

Honestly where did we really go wrong Huh

Just let it be. anyway the post were already burried dow. and you need to search for it of one is looking for a thread.
-snip-
Maybe a long term solution to avoid duplicate topics is to have threads pinned or make it a rule to search the forum before posting...whichever works Smiley

740  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Fun stuff to do with bitcoin? on: April 21, 2019, 06:22:08 PM
I remember the first years of bitcoin's life. There were so many things to do and learn: mining, faucets, wallets, blockchain visualizations, etc.
Happy to have been part of this era, guess we need to get creative once again.

Miss those bounties of hidden btc in a puzzle...those where on another level

Nowadays the bitcoin world is pretty boring: mining is for people with deep pockets, faucets don't exist anymore, wallets are getting centralized by big corporations (blockchain.com, coinbase, etc.).

Is there anything fun left to do with bitcoin, any specific application, website, app, anything that will make bitcoin fun and interesting again? Otherwise I just keep on holding and that's it.
I guess anything decentralized is usually shut down in the name of control and it seems all services are leaning towards centralization
