When this works and ACES adds bitcoin, then the sky is the limit for Ark...

55% completion on  ARKVM  Cool


 The ARK Virtual Machine integration will allow users to issue ARK Smart Contracts. Similar to Ethereum.


Ya gotta love it! This project does not disappoint!

Just tried to get "Enhanced" on Bittrex, uploaded clear pics but got rejected and asked to resubmit.

I followed the guidelines so this seems sketchy to me.

I will give it another try at some point, but for now, no more trading on Bittrex for me.

Tried same thing several times, no joy. System stopped allowing me to make requests, very odd...

Bittrex seems to have imploded. Does anyone have any real intel on what's going on over there?

No iam just wondering why they closing account without any reasson...

This is the latest and, the only, statement I can find from Bittrex:

We would like to address recent reports regarding Bittrex account suspensions.

We occasionally conduct compliance reviews and are working vigilantly to protect our service and our users from harm. As part of a compliance review, we have temporarily suspended certain accounts pending the completion of the review. The total number of suspended, closed, or banned accounts is very limited: less than 0.1% of the total accounts on Bittrex.  More than 99.9% of Bittrex accounts are unaffected.

Any reports that Bittrex miscalculated or misapplied its exchange fees, that there is a security problem with the exchange, that Bittrex lost any coins stored on users’ behalf, or that Bittrex is banning people trying to access Slack to discuss the status of their accounts are incorrect.  We are committed to making Bittrex a strong, safe, and compliant exchange where people can securely participate in the digital currency economy.  We ask for patience from our highly valued customers.  As for us, we plan to “keep calm, and carry on.”

So that's it huh? That's the explanation? Not enough, not at all. They could have avoided all this grief and nonsense by simply alerting us first or, at the very least, putting up a banner on the home page. Does no one consider the consequences of their actions any more? What if someone, on the edge, thought they had lost all their money and jumped out a window? This is no way to conduct business in this day and age. They should take a long hard look at themselves and make some changes in favor of the customers not the convenience of Bittrex. Communications and trust are needed for success. I see neither here.



I have a friend in New Zealand who is also locked out of his account. Though he also said he needs to verify his account. Still makes me unsure about their 0.1% affected figure.

Seems they may have placed the "1" on the wrong side of the decimal...  Grin

There we go again with all the wees and to the moons. Get real, people... the coin was just used for some profit by the "developers"... we, all others, are testing mices in this endeavour.

Since you obviously don't know the history of EMC2, I suggest your read up on the last few years and come back with a new attitude. You can start in 2014 at page 1 of this thread.

Great going @BITTREX! IS THE HERO EXCHANGE IN MY EYES.

NOT true! Many accounts are US and European as well as others. Get your "facts" straight before posting shit.

Same thing happened to me last night that everyone else is experiencing.

My HUNCH: They are being forced to comply with Homeland Security (whatever that entails).

My ADVICE: Let's chill for awhile and see what happens. I can't imagine Bittrex would blow such a potentially profitable business by just being dickheads. Let's cut them some slack for awhile and see where this goes.

No I'm not a shill for Bittrex, I'm just trying to follow the logic trail here.

Hard to do but, you are right, sit back and wait I suppose, not much else to do...

Lets get a new team of developers and fork this puppy, fix the issues at hand since Berzerk silently bitched out on us, just like the sloppy whores at Scharmback & the old foundation. Any ideas would be beneficial to all who still like worldcoin & want to see it succeed. Id be willing to chip in financially and any other way I can if there is a good solid plan. Since Berzerk decided to not pay the bill on the website worldcoin.global we will have to keep the conversations here at bitcointalk for now.

Let it rest in peace.

I would tend to agree but, have at it if you really think you can pull something together...
772  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: DNotes 2.0 - Bridging the Gap Between the Centralized and Decentralized World on: October 16, 2017, 08:44:24 PM
Absolutely, this will be a game changer for DNotes. There are many upgrades we are working on, but the change regarding the reward structure is certainly one of the the most significant in the near term. There is no additional requirements to receive the CRISP rewards, .1666% monthly and 4% annually, even if your wallet is offline. The 2% staking reward will require a wallet that is actively running to support the network.

So if I'm correct we can earn 8% compounding interest annually? This is great news especially with all these hyip programs popping up in every corner of the internet. This is guaranteed interest and no need to worry about loosing your hard earned money.

For the 2% staking reward. Will it also work if we store our coins in the DNotesVault wallet or will we have to install a wallet on our desktops and keep it running if we want to get this 2% reward. Could you please explain this for me. Regards,

The 2% staking reward requires you to run a full node via desktop wallet.

That is correct, and yep 8% plus compounding. We are planning on having a program where DNotesVault users can have their staking privileges deferred to another wallet. So if you have a DNotesVault account, there will be an option to fill out a form and request that your staking privileges are deferred to a desktop wallet you may be running, or to a wallet running on a cloud server for instance. In this manner you would be able to keep your DNotes safe at the DNotesVault while running a separate wallet specifically for staking, with no actual coins in the wallet you are deferring the staking privileges to.


That is WAY cool! What a forward thinking idea! This what I have always known DNotes was capable of, cool, user centered tech. Nice!

It's just a preset when you start up your wallet. If you unlock it and then close it...it is staking with your wallet off. Anytime there after, just make sure you unlock it first thing when you open it so you don't make a mistake and close the wallet with it locked. I personally think this should be removed, if you're unlocked you're unlocked until you command it otherwise. It's a tad annoying.


Not if someone else gets access to your wallet it's not. Either in person or, remotely, lots of ways to steal your funds.
774  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][CLOAK] Private, Secure, Untraceable & Decentralized Digitalcurrency on: October 16, 2017, 01:02:41 AM

Nope. What are your symptoms?

For better or for worse China continues to be front and center on cryptocurrencies. China has always addressed threats, challenges, and opportunities differently than most countries. That is why they are where they are. Right or wrong, being no more than an opinion – they deserve some credit. So, I do agree with the following statement to an extent:

“decentralized cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin lack value because they are not anchored to either intrinsic value or a state-backed currency, a government-backed digital currency would provide even more pricing stability than conventional fiat currency:”

As they are today, Bitcoin and other digital currencies lack intrinsic value. Without intrinsic value there cannot be pricing stability. It is highly volatile and speculative – it can be easily manipulated by a single individual or a group of individuals with significant buying/trading power. Without pricing stability, they are not suitable for global commerce. They will then remain as speculative trading commodities and never gain mass acceptance in a global scale. That has been the opinion of DNotes since day one; leading us to building a different path where DNotes could eventually be anchored to intrinsic value.

We also believe that no sovereign digital currency will be accepted on a global basis. It must be a trusted, neutral digital currency like DNotes that is specifically built and made accessible for everyone worldwide to participate.  

"PBoC Digital Currency Chief Calls for State Cryptocurrency"

Josiah Wilmoth on 15/10/2017

"The head of the People’s Bank of China’s (PBoC) Digital Currency Research Institute has called for the Chinese central bank to adopt a government cryptocurrency to help bring stability to its fiat currency.

As reported by regional news source Yicai, Institute Director Yao Qian discussed the potential benefits of a government cryptocurrency at an International Telecommunication Union meeting this week. He says that while decentralized cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin lack value because they are not anchored to either intrinsic value or a state-backed currency, a government-backed digital currency would provide even more pricing stability than conventional fiat currency

And who didn't see that coming? China only acts in self interest. Now that there are those in the population who understand crypto, lets make them use government crypto. Typical.

Dimon Vows to Stop Talking About Bitcoin – Again

https://dcebrief.com/dimon-vows-to-stop-talking-about-bitcoin-again/


The problem with thinking the world will never change and/or that your piece of the $$ pie is forever protected by the government:


9 Life-Changing Inventions the Experts Said Would Never Work

1. The Electric Lightbulb

"Everyone acquainted with the subject will recognize it as a conspicuous failure."
Henry Morton, president of the Stevens Institute of Technology, on Edison’s light bulb, 1880.

2. The A/C

"Fooling around with alternating current is just a waste of time. Nobody will use it, ever."
Thomas Edison, 1889.

3. The Personal Computer

"We have reached the limits of what is possible with computers."
John Von Neumann, 1949

4. The Microchip

"But what… is it good for?"
An engineer at the Advanced Computing Systems Division of IBM, commenting on the microchip in 1968.

5. Data Transmission

"Transmission of documents via telephone wires is possible in principle, but the apparatus required is so expensive that it will never become a practical proposition."
Dennis Gabor, Hungarian-British physicist, 1962.

6. Online Shopping

"Remote shopping, while entirely feasible, will flop – because women like to get out of the house, like to handle merchandise, like to be able to change their minds."
TIME, 1966.

7. The Automobile

"The ordinary “horseless carriage” is at present a luxury for the wealthy; and although its price will probably fall in the future, it will never, of course, come into as common use as the bicycle."
Literary Digest, 1899.

8. The Television

"While theoretically and technically television may be feasible, commercially and financially it is an impossibility, a development of which we need waste little time dreaming."
Lee DeForest, American radio pioneer and inventor of the vacuum tube,1926.

9. Possibility

"Everything that can be invented has been invented."
Supposedly said by Charles H. Duell, Commissioner, U.S. Office of Patents, 1899 – except he probably didn’t. So the last word goes to actor and humorist Peter Ustinov:

"If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can’t be done."

No,not really. Most projects out there have survived similar incidents, it's just the nature of the beast. So, "troll" advise not withstanding, I see it as a buying opportunity. Make you own conclusions, don't listen to "one post wonders"

hey guys, I'm here to send you some supporting words Smiley
how is the search for devs going? I decided I'll be participating in developing next year since I have some background in programming. I need to learn more but I will try to do what I can starting next year. I think we all like this coin too much to let it down.

Cool. Glad to see your getting on board. I don't know if there is any progress in the dev search area or not. Perhaps someone here a little more involved can answer. Anyway, welcome!

second to last payout will be in 3 days
please do not complain if you miss the deadline, it is repeated many times as October 15th

after this payout, there will only be the LAST payout on January 15th. Constantly maintaining the ICO site has taken a fair amount of time, but we said we would keep it open for a year, so we will.

However, it is time for us to move to the next set of things to do, instead of maintaining an ICO site for an ICO that has been completed for almost a year.

I STRONGLY suggest you do a payout before this payout. Dont procrastinate until the final payout.

i want to swap all my btcd this month, i must wait until january 15th ??!
now i have a pending payout over 1 month and i can't do another one to swap now all my btcd ?!

No, he said do BEFORE Jan 15th...
