OP sorry but there is a long line ahead of you and we all laugh at each one of these remarks.  Bitcoin was dead in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, etc etc....and well how did that turn out for those future tellers.  If credit card banning of crypto is your biggest argument to why bitcoin is dead you need to dig deeper just a tad bit.  Thanks for trying though....and this belongs with the speculation sub spam as well please move this nonsense.


Yes all those years you mentioned there was no real regulations on crypto. Now miners are getting hit with crypto tax on their taxes this year... Don't report your crypto earnings and your looking at tax evasion charges

It's a new day and age and yesteryears gains don't apply anymore.

Funny thing is you can still use your credit card at a gambling casino... So it's the final nail in the coffin for crypto. Without investors being able to use credit cards to buy crypto there will be no bull run

I'm calling bullshit on any bull run that mysteriously just happens out of the blue

 Bitcoin isnt propped up by credit cards kid....sorry but bull runs and new money that pushes markets isnt credit cards if you think thats the case you are a moron.

not even gonna take a look at your website. the fact that your email account has been recently changed is fishy enough. i would guess this account is bought and will red tag you until you prove otherwise.

Let me know how you'd like us to prove out legitimacy and we would love too! We are a fully functioning company manufacturing hundreds of GPU mining rigs per month.

Easiest way is to accept using an escrow agent here on this site.  Make some "real" sales and go from there.  Crypto is irreversable so you can understand the need for a trusted party in the middle without any reputable vouches for your service


We accept crypto as payment and are willing to use Bitpay to verify the sale.

I dont think you read my recomendation.  For crypto payments i personally wouldnt buy anything as "crypto" stores pop up all the time and are scams.  When i come here to buy and sell services/product i use the method everyone else uses...escrow from here.  Its been done that way for thousands of transactions and if done right keeps everyone safe and keeps sales moving.  Everyones happy.

Fuck my life right...

If we dont stop soon, my L3+ is in the reds not even 12 months after buying lol

Cant imagine how D3 owners must feel right now

Thats not bad actually haha, asics are eventual doorstops and technology speeds faster and faster.  Its not if they will be obsolete its only when.
7485  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Crypto is dead because credit card companies stop crypto purchases on: April 03, 2018, 09:08:45 PM
Why is this even still being entertained.  If bitcoin is dead because you cant use credit cards to buy it its pretty worthless to begin with.  This has ZERO bearing on the utility and market of bitcoin and if it will survive or not.  Stop this nonsense.

7487  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Do you think bitmain is secretly mining ETH with ASICs? on: April 03, 2018, 07:07:11 PM
If there is not a hard fork to resist an ASIC resistance then I believe the majority of the community will just mine an alternate currency or a external team will fork the blockchain with the respective code to prevent asics. e.g Ethereum Cash etc.
 

Thats nice in theory but that is a lot of hashpower that the combined market cant handle right now.  I.e. it would crush a lot of coins network and make them unprofitable.

I sent the game from Yobit to Cryptopia, now I understand that they went to the old chain. Yobit shows the completion of the transaction, Cryptopia does not have them. Support for Yobit / Cryptopia is always silent. Are they lost? I will not get them? Can I forget about the Game?

All around are scammers. Angry

Yes sending from one exchange to another is not the best way to move coins.  Neither wallet do you have the keys for they are both hot wallets.  You have to deal with their admin now as third parties arent under control of the game team and they cant change anything for you.
7490  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [RAFFLE] MEGA 256/256 Slot Cryptocoin Raffle - Satori Chips+Bitcoin Pennies!!! on: April 03, 2018, 02:16:14 AM
0.512 BTC for 2 Satori Rolls and a couple of Bitcoin Penny rolls?

You are forgetting the airtight containers and all of the shipping.

My bad. That explains it.

Not really.. 100 airtites are like.. $30 total. And there would not be 50 different winners, there's no way, so shipping could tops (only USA is included, not EU/Rest of world), he'd perhaps be out with what.. $200 for shipping?

Who is to say there will not be 50 different winners?!

I say, you will not find 50 people to participate in a raffle on this forum.

1) There's not 50 people here that are participating in raffles.
2) Considering your history and the way you do business that will probably cut the possible audience in half.

EDIT;

I bid 0.1 BTC for the entire lot of items.

ill bid 0.10000001 for the lot if you DONT include any of your own doodles.

I'll bid .111btc

Against the backdrop of all the other alts, GAME holds its positions very well, of course, it fell well, too, but some positions in my portfolio made -200% and even -300%, and this pleases me as the holder of this coin

A coin can go up 200 or 300% but in no mathematical terms can you ever lose more than 100% of you money.  But i get your point, its a bad market and most coins have lost similar values...its a market thing not a specific coin thing

7493  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is Halong ever shipping the B52? on: April 02, 2018, 07:31:52 PM
Dont really know who that was.  Possibly could be bitmain with some "spare" units laying around that they jammed on the network.  Either way any one trick pony miner is scary to own because profits can turn to vapor while you are asleep

This looks like a good project that has a real life application! Went through your article and I have to admit it is well detailed and describes very well the token sale and distribution process

Huh There is no token sale because this isnt a token.  New coins are generating via pow mining.  Are you sure you read it right?

7496  Economy / Collectibles / Re: Collectibles have been holding out pretty well against bitcion downtrend on: April 01, 2018, 02:11:59 PM
Even if bitcoin ended at $5k at the end of the year that is a great long term trend.  Remember 2014 - 2016 and where we are at now.  I think as more people get into bitcoin itself which they have, than i think the collectable market can only grow.

I agree I mention that all the time to people now, $5k is a major psych support area but thats still huge compared to the last couple years as an investment.  Just need the new people to stay in long term now.

In the beginning of 2017 if you told me we'd be at $2,500 i would have signed up for it 10 out of 10 times.  The doom and gloom is caused by the volitility but if you've been through enough market ups and downs its easier to see the long term trends, not so much for people who jumped in.  But you can equate it to the people who jumped in on the rise to $1,000 in 2013 *raises hands* and walked it all the way down to under $175.  In a time when outlook was bleek the strong got rewarded.  We are in a MUCH more stable place than 2015 so i am fine with this downtrend.  Lets me buy more.  Grin

Thats a decent ETH hashing speed. Wonder what that unit will cost.

Probably more than the ability to roi them this decade.  I imagine as with others they will look to the "average" person you can roi them in a month or 2, than they slam the market with units and in reality they become 12-18 month roi units

Did i miss any announcement thread?  And interested in the mintage as well on them.  My goldie needs a friend.  Grin
7500  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How to defend against asics or prove Metroid wrong on: March 31, 2018, 05:45:32 PM
I support the idea of protecting coin algorithms from the use of asics. But how can we force developers to do that. For them, it does not matter who will be able to mining. But for decentralization mining and survivability of the coin is of great importance. How to explain this to the developers, I don't know.

You cannot force anyone to do anything.

In fact, a great many developers are ASIC pro, not against, due to the high volume of hashrate that can be achieved to secure network through PoW.

My firm belief is that GPU mining will ALWAYS have a place, and that the largest component to this is the home user. However, for assurance that this will be the future, there needs to be stability in the GPU mining systems, and the current state of affairs in the GPU market is abhorrent. Almost NO decent GPU can be had, and the manufacturing giants are elevating the prices of GPU's much higher than they are actually worth. This is a side effect, and a negative one at that, of the market at play here. We know, we buy and supply the GPU's. Shortages are not the only problem, though price is a major one.

So ASIC's become much more attractive in that case, as they come close to the price of GPU's in the medium level ASIC market.

What does this mean on an overall level?

Simply that NO ONE can kill ASIC's, just like NO ONE can kill GPU's.

I believe there will be a balance of all mining hardware, and that this balance will be maintained WELL into the future of mining. The fact that the head of nVidia himself believes that mining will be a core aspect of the business proves that the GPU mining will be alive and well MUCH deeper into the future than what anyone can conceive.

As for the Algo change, that is not difficult at all. We know, we have designed a few ourselves which will appear shortly in our coins. Getting around an adaptive ASIC/FPGA miner is!

#crysx

Dont have the misconception that high hashpower = secure.  I for one would rather a lower hashrate but many more people on the network.  And hashrate is reletive to the machines available to mine.  

Wrong ...

That is where 51% attacks come from. Security is a hashrate phenomenon, whether you or I like it or not.

If the network is a GPU hashed PoW and has 25MH, while we come along with our 'theFARM' and thrash the network at 250MH, then the network has a massive issue.

MH or GH, the figures stand.

#crysx

So you are saying when bitmain developed the x11 they couldnt have 51% the dash network....they crushed the network....i.e. asics.

What phil is saying is to be adaptive and change algos.  You have stated that there might be adaptive asics coming out, i am no tech guru but i dont believe thats how asic chips are designed...they do one thing and do that one thing very well
