@IncludeBeer. Did you start that market? It might also be a good idea to add if EOS could take Ethereum's place in coinmarketcap.com on 2nd place by year 2022 hehehe.

I reckon there are maneuverings behind the scenes on Ethereum's crash and I speculate it is the doing of a $4 billion ICO hehe.

Look whose ICO wallet is empty.

7702  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Cheapest coins you can buy right now with real teams on: September 17, 2018, 12:32:45 AM
I am talking 1000 coins for 1 doge cheap.  Or at least 1 Sat coins.  People who have been around for a while have seen 1 Sat coins go to 50 Sat even after they went down to 1 Sat after being about 50 Sat.

You want a very cheap coin that should have a real team at the same time? What you are looking for is a unicorn hehehe. But try finding some coins listed with market capitalization lower than $50 million in coinmarketcap.com.

Also, please share what you find hehe.

How can this controversy affect the upcoming Manny vs Money 2?

Boxing is a dying sport. Vladimir Klitschko is making far less today than Mike Tyson made in the 1980s and 1990s without adjusting for decades of inflation. Boxing promoters like Oscar De La Hoya are beginning to creep into mixed martial arts promoting due to the lack of stars in boxing. AFAIK Don King, Bob Arum and other big name historical boxing promoters don't even bother with the sport anymore.

I could easily see Manny vs Money 2 being like another GGG vs Canelo. Vegas judges have robbed Manny in the past vs Timothy Bradley. Vegas also shows a considerable amount of favortism towards Floyd Mayweather whenever he fights.

Floyd versus Manny 2 will be another hyped but boring fight. Why would the fans want to be scammed again? Especially boxing fans who are also fans of the cryptospace. We already have seen too many scams for our trained eyes to see that Floyd Manny 2 as another one hehehehe.

In any case, I won the bet but I am not happy.

Dont look at that. It will recover. Etherium is big in the world and second most liquid currency. The majority of finance executives believe cryptocurrency will be a significant part of the future of finance – despite the fact the crypto market has dropped over 70% in total market value since the beginning of 2018. You will see big rebound by ETH very very soon

Agreed that Ethereum might recover. But we cannot deny that there are real people, presumably EOS, behind this market selling pressure on ETH to keep its price down, while supporting their own cryptocoin and preparing to pump it to 2nd place in market capitalization.

@Slow death. Agreed but it is sometimes not as simple as that. There are specific causes on why bitcoin has low demand or high demand.

I reckon it is similar to what occured in Ethereum. The EOS development team has massed $4 billion in ETH and it stores them in maybe 2 or 3 exchanges which Bitfinex holds the largest quantity. Would knowing that increase confidence and demand in Ethereum?

Why would anyone store then (long term) at an exchange?   For me, it would decrease the confidence in ethereum if the developers haven't been paying attention the last 9 years.

The EOS development team are not storing their ETH longterm in an exchange. They might be the cause of why there is billions in selling pressure on ETH that is making the price go down.

Also, if the all the developers in the cryptospace have really been paying attention, it should decrease confidence. Ethereum cannot do what it was built to do, and the developers who have been paying attention do not reckon it will ever.
7706  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / EOS dapp uses backdoor to access user wallets on: September 16, 2018, 11:46:37 PM
I reckon programs or apps running on the EOS platform should not be called decentralized applications. They are the same as any centralized web service on the internet, that can access your account, change your settings or freeze your funds.

There was also the issue of EOS itself freezing user funds in the platform, if you remember.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4504947.0

That breaks the social contract that the developers of decentralized platforms have with the community.



A decentralized app (DApp) on the EOS blockchain, Trybe, has recently attracted negative attention following an erroneous distribution of tokens to more than 100 EOS accounts, some received up to four times the due amount.

The developers of Trybe - a blockchain based content ecosystem - chose to then access user wallets to retrieve the accidentally airdropped 8,740 TRYBE tokens (about $60) without notifying the users beforehand.

This mutability feature, interestingly, is often marketed as what makes the EOS blockchain different (in a good way) from its counterparts. In contrast to Ethereum’s immutable smart contracts, which require a hard fork like the infamous DAO hack.

@smooth. How much bigger is Monero's blockchain versus Aeon's blockchain? I reckon Aeon might be in a better position for the longterm because it is more sustainable to run on dedicated hardware because of the smaller blocks.

Much, much bigger, I don't know the exact numbers but roughly a factor of 10 would be my guess.

This is not only from the higher usage but from a enormous size of RingCT transactions until bulletproofs get activated. It was when RingCT was enabled that the blockchain size really exploded (the rate of growth instantly jumped from about 100 MB per month to 1+ GB per month).


Continuing this discussion. If Aeon had the same amount of transactions as Monero, how much larger would Monero's blocks be? Would it be 5x larger?

Also, how much larger would Aeon blocks be if it had the same amount of transactions as bitcoin?

7710  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum (ETH) Continues To Underperform on: September 14, 2018, 10:56:14 PM
People are blaming whoever they can for the fall of ETH but honestly, I feel that ICOs are the one to blame here. After dumping massive amount of ETH on to the market the liquidity of ETH was massively affected and that is why it has been seeing constant drop during the bearish market.


This is not blame. This is only a theory based on facts. The EOS development team holds $4 billion in ETH, not stored in their wallets anymore, but moved to Bitfinex and maybe in 2 other exchanges. What would the purpose of sending those coins to the exchanges be?

EOS' balances of ETH are held in exchanges since August or possibly before that.

https://diar.co/ico-treasury-balances/

Also, read the article I shared in this thread.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4333347.0

The possibility of truth based on evidence is clearer now more than before.
7711  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-09-13]$2 Billion Bitcoin Whale That Fueled a Selloff Bloomb on: September 14, 2018, 10:49:39 PM
@Bitcoinsummoner. Hehehe but that transaction did only cost the sender $0.19 however.

In any case, yes it's funny. I still the same feeling when I send bigger transactions using any cryptocoin, especially in Aeon because I use the command line wallet. The GUI has a psychological effect that everything will be safe and secure, I reckon hehe.
7712  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum (ETH) Continues To Underperform on: September 14, 2018, 01:54:22 AM
Well that is some theory  Grin

Nobody really knows but it could be true though that EOS have been liquidating a lot of eth they got from the ICO.

There were transactions posted in an article 3 or maybe 4 months ago that showed Ethereum wallets, controlled by the EOS development team, were sending ETH to Bitfinex. Also the price has been going down since those ETH were sent.

It might only be coincedence but it would be also stupid not to speculate that the EOS development team is not dumping ETH. Also what would their next step be after dumping all their ETH and now holding USDT and bitcoins? Pump EOS, I reckon.
7713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Canelo vs. GGG 2 Discussion Thread, WHO YOU GOT? on: September 14, 2018, 01:44:24 AM
@krach. I predict Canelo will win by points. He will make small changes from the first fight, having tested Golovkin's chin, and will not be as punchy anymore, I reckon.
7714  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-09-13]$2 Billion Bitcoin Whale That Fueled a Selloff Bloomber on: September 14, 2018, 01:26:03 AM
@gentlemand. Was there a deposit to a shit exchange? I reckon that the article was only speculating that the movements of those coins, by the whales, might have caused the selloffs.

There was also a large movement of 30,000 bitcoins that came from Bittrex to an unknown wallet in block 541,229.

https://www.blockchain.com/btc/tx/9d18b7a097162ad96d3e12bd13c8e241bdb954b18deee968266e5ae36f642f39



Should that be speculated as bullish by Bloomberg? Not clickbaity enough, I reckon hehehe.

@smooth. Hehe I must have missed it or unconciously ignored it. I was satisfied in using the command line before in the old software, and I also have stopped running my node after the hard fork. Sorry.

The price of Aeon has not been so encouraging.
7716  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: September 13, 2018, 01:24:06 AM
@Juggy777. It might be a gamble, but it might also be the right time to give this young Ferrari academy driver an opportunity, I reckon. Sebastian might leave after another contract extension, and hiring another experienced driver, besides Lewis, might also be a gamble. Who there is left?

Also, a Max Verstappen versus Charles Leclerc excitement will be good for this sport.

Mercedes should also leave Valterri and give Esteban Ocon an opportunity hehehe. 3 young drivers in 3 top teams.
7717  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Etherum 176 $ :o waaaw ?!?!?! on: September 13, 2018, 01:08:06 AM
Hodl brothers! In Vitalik We Trust! F*ck dirty whales plays and ICO's dumpers! You must just remain calm and patient (by 2021 maybe  Grin)

The biggest ICO in Ethereum is EOS which is holding $4 billion in ETH, not in their wallets but held in exchanges ready to be liquidated or are being liquidated to buy USDT and bitcoins.

https://diar.co/ico-treasury-balances/

I reckon once finished, they will move to step 2. Pump EOS to 2nd in coinmarketcap.

That debate was very embarassing. But more embarassing for Jimmy Song. Why did he let himself be pulled down to that level?

Also, if they wanted a proper debate then there should be a moderator. My candidate for that would be Vitalik hehehe.

@TraderTimm. Did you watch it?

Is there a GUI wallet for this coin yet? Or a way to hold Aeon that doesn't require a terminal window?

https://github.com/aeonix/aeon-gui/releases

 Shocked Shocked Shocked

Is that official?? I must be so very isolated. After the unfortunate events during the code rebase with the stoffu versus the Aevengers situation, I stopped going to the Aeon subbreddit.

I thought of another ending. Jon and Daenerys retiring to Pentos after the war to live in a peaceful land and let their son grow in a happy place.

I reckon Jon would not want his son and future children to play the game of thrones like his uncle Ned Stark hehe.
