ahah this is trash)))) you can read it right in the description

they dump them right here in ANN discussions lol

these reddit environmentalists don't like to remember the damage recycling program caused since its start by multiplying the load on transportation sector. we stopped burning trash, but started to burn way more gas to move all that clear dirt. this also causing more forest fire around the world. and now ashes from these forest fires melting earth's poles. and miners are to blame)

precisely!!!!)))))) http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/bitcoin-latest-bill-gates-cryptocurrencies-reddit-fentynl-deaths-money-laundering-criminal-a8232346.html

true. still - some new exchanges offering their own coins at the opening, so its technically same ico. fixed shares could be a good solution, but don't remember usage of that approach

thank you! thats exactly my point. everybody's saying that there soo many coins and etc. but i think the number of actual ongoing projects is very small. its still a very nice selection though)

how to spot the obvious

a) no/weird github )
b) stretched roadmap (you can bootstrap everything in a few hours, there is plenty of generators to start the coin with everything built)
c) ICO
d) white paper
e) copyright violation
f) high price
g) guides

a)
learn to read github https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin. the only thing that all successful projects have in common - solid github. some scammers already started to working on that, so even good looking github can make zero sense after some studying and reading/testing. if you would look at the differences in versions/branches of bitcoin https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/branches - you would notice that it is very easy to spot the project that is based on an old core. reason for that could be an absence of proper documentation/guide how to bootstart current version of the original project and lack of skills.

learning ubuntu to feel comfortable building the core will take couple weekends - but will pay itself in lightspeed. i think this is a must, since we are talking about financial platform. you probably will have to lear it at some point anyway if you want to succeed in cryptocurrency market. documentations usually very rich, but on advanced level. don't forget that you working with experimental software. basic linux skills could give you advantage like being able to solo mine new coins while developers still building binaries)) this could lead to a very high profit if played right.

b)
since most of the projects are forks of forks, the software is already finished and all you need is copy paste. so to start the clone - depends on how fast you can type. i haven't seen the roadmap that can not be finished by one pair of hands in 48-60 hours. hardest part - pay 3 btc to get listed on exhcange. might be a week. why would you stretch release of the wallet that is ready on the next year, 6 months after an exchange listing.

c) think about how the price develops around the project. in case of btc - its tech. so the same for every fork. miners spending resources mining and confirming, and etc. so if you have some solid tech - all you need is to release it and get listed on an exchange. market will set the price. but if you not confident in your project, or you know that it has no value - you will use ICO to setup desired price. example of good scam - https://www.coindesk.com/arisebank-ico-fraud-case-may-ensnare-additional-parties/?utm_content=buffer894d4&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

d) white paper is something that you would want to put in frame. its an idea of your project. academical representation, if you want. but looking at all the current flow of projects - most of them dedicated over 65% of the content to expanded budget program and referral system.

e) this might be tricky. but its a very common flag. im seeing people stating like "oh, yeah maybe looks similar. but its fine.". its not. companies getting sued regardless geographical location (!). and its not okay even if its just a little similar. one of my favorites from 2017 year https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/22/15678296/paypal-pandora-lawsuit-logo-design

f) i guess this is already explained in part c)

g) the reason i got into cryptocurrency was the open source. like to read. but since the tech is still in experimental state - it requires some skills to feel comfortable around the environment. so if you don't know how something works - you study first. but what can be observed right now - armies of masternodes with blind operators who's running everything from root and then questioning disappearance of their funds. but devs don't want you to learn. or you would figure out what they are actually doing.

this is based on data and observations from jan 2016 to dec 2017.

UPD after the dark winter, amount of scam coins sky rocketed, more and more masternodes auctions and ICOs trying to lead investors in the wrong world where blockchain could be valued over $1000 for one masternode, one week after the start)) since value of the project develops from its security and functionality abilities - there is no possible way for a new coin to prove its characteristics (you looking at months, years of robust testing and hacking).

its saying it all right here))) https://github.com/NeblioTeam/neblio/issues/1

good job, it looks kinda busy if you don't know how to read github)

investor, stay safe! this team is stretching the work that can be done in a week into 2year good looking roadmap))

https://github.com/NeblioTeam/neblio if this is an official github - looks weird. why core is so old? somebody's updating outdated core with old patches, so it will look busy? since none of these patches worked: badge states it builds - well, its not


maybe thats why that build badge is not pointing anywhere lol))

UPD issues tree looks like somebody's mistaken it for PR tab lol. looks veeery suspicious https://github.com/NeblioTeam/neblio/issues

no github? sounds like scam then)
doesn't look like you can cover scaling at at least on 10% of your targeted cap

my two cents - can't withdraw, admin cancelling my orders https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3008463

that sounds like an idea. im giving them a little more time before posting experience on more resources. had technical issues because of the situation and now can't even login with current 2fa. no respond on emails/twitter so far. and cancelled by admin withdrawals 

MNrunners: while we preparing better deployment tools, you can use the following to compile on ubuntu:

1) prepare the system and build dependencies (https://github.com/AXErunners/axe/wiki/Detailed-guide:-Masternodes)

2a) for VPS 2b) for regular client (ubuntu)
you can use these commands to update the client upon new release

for binaries https://github.com/AXErunners/axe/releases

- - -

don't forget to stop the client with axe-cli stop before running the update!

bitcoin would never be a king without altcoins. but still, look around - hash power is the king) bch come that close without heavy effort, looks like the king is in a deeeep sleep.

if you will look at the model from afar - the motivation for ICO is obvious. developers are not confident that their product will reach desired value in free market (exchange listing) - so they setting the the price themselves. people see high price and investing right away, without first reading basics of blockchain tech. this is confirmed by the amount of legit github accounts around all ICOs on the market and basic observation of last two years. also if you like to read white papers - you would noticed that most of all documentation is dedicated to expanding budget covering or referral program. there is a line between fast money and investment. nobody wants to their homework, laziness and greed got us to current ocean of scam we all calling cryptocurrency market.

you can find information regarding mn setups in axe's wiki https://github.com/AXErunners/axe/wiki

niiice

usually after some time you will learn that bots are waste of time and its better to trade yourself. besides that in current market using bot - last thing you want to do
by the time you will learn how to tune your bot for optimal performance - you should be able to trade 5 times better.

there was a concept of a bot that trades on differences between exchanges, but profits are not worth the risk. better just to buy

i would say that reading github is the first thing you should learn
