7921  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty and too many participants on: May 16, 2018, 06:39:05 AM
The bounty participants have to accept that good projects are expected to be flocked with so many bounty hunters because they will be receiving some valuable tokens in the end. Especially if these projects have good payment allocations to them. They may complain but if the campaign manager does not plan to limit the number of participants they have nothing else to do but to accept their payment.
7922  Economy / Economics / Re: Will bitcoin change the distribution of wealth in the world? on: May 15, 2018, 06:40:42 AM
Does anyone have information whether bitcoin would distribute wealth more equally across people than the current wealth distribution?

Or would the distribution be even more unfair?

There is no exclusive or significant amount of relationship between Bitcoin and the world's distribution of wealth. Before Bitcoin, there was fiat. Before fiat, there was gold and silver and bronze, and other precious stones I guess. Before that, there was barter. Before that, there was only community ownership. And all through these times, there was never a point when the distribution of wealth was fair. Therefore, I conclude that the unequal distribution of wealth will continue despite the rise of Bitcoin.

Which altcoins have potential to grow like Bitcoin?

Think of the coins that have the potential to grow, not potential to become like Bitcoin. I doubt if any of the one thousand plus cryptocurrencies as of today will become like Bitcoin. I doubt it for the reason that Bitcoin is the founding coin of the crypto world. There will be no future founder or next founder so Bitcoin will stay as the unequaled coin in a throne that fits to no other coin but itself.
7924  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So Bitcoin is King.. why is it?! on: May 13, 2018, 10:09:00 AM
Technology-wise, Bitcoin may not already be on top right now. In terms of decentralization, every coin is claiming that but Bitcoin has some centralized aspects also. In terms of privacy or anonymity, there are a few coins that are certainly more private and anonymous than Bitcoin. In terms of transaction speed, Bitcoin is not the number 1 either. The same with the options in terms of the amount of fees charged in transactions. But the bottom line is always about trust and reliability and safety. In terms of these three factors, Bitcoin is always the number 1.

[Listing announcement]

We will list on the exchange market (coss.io) upcoming 8th of May with great promotion event. ( https://twitter.com/cosscrypto/status/992250354132647936 )


We are very sorry to let you wait for long time. We focused on our product rather than showing up to social networks. We develop all features on our freelancing platform ( https://freelancercoin.io ) so from now, we will focus on communicating with token holders and focus on activating our freelancing platform and FreelancerCoin token.

We will soon start lots of events to encourage investors to purchase FreelancerCoin token including airdrop on the freelancing platform and collaboration project for platform improvement ( including dev, blog, bounty) so please stay tuned.

As I have said above, even if you guys are busy developing all the features on your freelancing platform, it is always best to release some updates every once in a while as to the status. That would somehow encourage others to keep an eye on your project and product and be in anticipation of its release. I guess at this particular point it is about time to market your fully-developed platform. I am wondering why you still mentioned airdrop and bounty. Are you not done with these yet?
7926  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethreum the new king of crypto? on: May 12, 2018, 01:56:13 AM
Hello Folk, is it the time for ethreum to lead from the front ? As bitcoin is going through rough ride along with other altcoins but ethreum is turning out to be more stable platform for investment and also new ICO's are based on ethreum. Do you think Ethreum will dethrone bitcoin from 1st rank of crypto this year?

That is not possible, not within the year and in the years to come. Bitcoin is still growing, the same with Ethereum. If at a certain point Bitcoin stops growing then Ethereum will be given a chance to prove itself worthy of replacing the king of crypto. But until then, Ethereum has to remain on the second spot. That is not bad at all considering the number of altcoins in the market. In terms of price stability, Bitcoin as well as Ethereum do not have it.
7927  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? on: May 11, 2018, 05:19:33 AM
If that's even his name. Just read the bitcoin wiki on him and I'm amazed. Nobody knows him.

Long time passed since he last posted in here. Why? "Busy"? I don't think so. He was active when bitcoin needed support but since the slashdot...
Also, it seems has knowledge in many areas, especially economy. He doesn't act like the average human. Not taking advantage out of his creation, leaving without telling anything. Is he even a single person or a group?

How can someone create something so great and not stepping out to get the credit?
"satoshi" is a name given for the "founder of btc" by the real creators, whoever they may be.  This way the attention is constantly focused on this one "mystery man" and not on the real people behind btc.  Also, I cant imagine one person would be willing to just keep all his millions of $ worth of btc, and leave them untouched.  Seems like the group in control of them wants to keep them untouched, so as not to hurt the fragile btc economy right now.

As with Satoshi Nakamoto is a real person, this theory of yours is just as good as it is, a mere theory of who is the real person or people behind this pseudonym. It is sometimes great to read the history of Bitcoin especially on this section. It adds mystery to Bitcoin and how everything started from scratch and turned into a giant.
7928  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Follows these rules to be a successful trader on: May 11, 2018, 04:18:52 AM
As I have read your list of advice or tips, I generally agree with them. But there is a single one right there that I think will not be good to your portfolio value and investment. This is #Sell when you feel good. I don't think it is advisable to simply sell when you fell good. Anything that has something to do with feelings in crypto, especially in trading, does not give you a good result. It is worse if you sell when you feel bad though. But the best thing is to sell with certain rational bases.
7929  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to know which coins are good? on: May 09, 2018, 12:07:07 PM
Lots of coins are coming in every month. But I can't know which coin will good in future,  Always I face problem with my confusion. So, is there anyway to know which coins are good?

Thank You

You need to have enough knowledge of the kind of industry they are focusing with their project. It is only with this that you understand the vision and goals of their project and the specific problems they are trying to address. With this, you can go to their whitepaper and take a careful review of the details. Please also consider their existing strategic partners. If they have several highly trusted ones then perhaps that is a positive point. Take a look at their team members and advisers as well.
7930  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin or litecoin ? on: May 09, 2018, 01:10:38 AM
Well? Let's hear it.


You are letting us choose between Bitcoin and Litecoin, but in terms of what? In terms of technology? Or price growth? Or perhaps in terms of which one is faster? Or which one is cheaper in fees? Bitcoin is ahead in some respects and behind in some also. So Litecoin is also better than Bitcoin in certain aspects especially about confirmation speed. It has already installed its lightning network. In terms of price, I go for both of course as an investment.
7931  Economy / Speculation / Re: what affects the price? on: May 09, 2018, 12:28:57 AM
bitcoin slowly went down this year, from almost 20k USD last December and went down at a significant price

what might be the reason why bitcoin's price is going down?
what are the major things that can greatly influence bitcoin?
answers would be fully appreciated Smiley

There are a mixture of reasons why Bitcoin moved too down low after it reached its all time high in December of last year. One of the reasons of course was the correction. That was expected because that $20,000 all time high was far beyond the prediction of the majority of crypto speculators and analysts. Add to this the real and fake news about Bitcoin and crypto fate in many countries. Some are implementing very strict restrictions, some are even implementing a ban.
7932  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to Shut Up Bitcoin Haters on: May 08, 2018, 01:35:30 AM
Sometimes, these very noisy Bitcoin haters are so annoying I want to gag them with my huge earnings through Bitcoin. If only it is not a waste of money, I might have already done that a long time ago. Right now, I am just trying to keep my cool when I encounter the likes of them as these Bitcoin haters might find themselves important if we take up their arguments. Let them be. They are the ones who are not earning anyway.
7933  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO] GRON Digital - Gambling & Betting On the Blockchain on: May 06, 2018, 01:01:59 AM
Where are the devs here? It seems this has been left dead after the ICO. There are no more updates. I was one of those who took a look at this project and it appeared pretty good to me. But now it seems the people behind GRON Digital is nowhere to be found. The same is true in their official Twitter account. The bounty thread is also the same with the manager not even publishing any status.

Wake up!
7934  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [ICO] FreelancerCoin [LAN] A blockchain freelancing platform on: May 05, 2018, 04:38:19 AM
What is going on with this project, the token is inactive for months now...

Allegedly there is a platform and a service being provided, but more and more the project is resembling a ghost town...

The CEO seemed like a sincere guy, if a bit inexperienced, he needs to hire a few strong professionals to help him get this platform off the ground, since their ICO can be considered a moderate success...

Too much silence is never good for a project. Even if such silence means the developers are too busy focusing on their product and their ultimate goal of giving their investors a run for their money, it might send a different connotation to some. As I have observed, some are even thinking that this project is already dead. It is primarily because the Freelancercoin people are silent everywhere. But, just a day or two ago, I read on their Twitter account that they are currently negotiating with COSS for their possible listing.
7935  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is still Ok to invest in Etherium on: May 03, 2018, 01:20:48 PM
Hi guys,

I was trying to invest around 5K in Etherium. The price at the moment is around 1.2K and as it looks it is still growing. You think is it a good time to invest ?

You invested at a particular time when Ethereum and the whole cryptocurrency market was very bullish. You were right that Ethereum continued to rise even higher after reaching $1,200 but then after reaching around $1,400, the price of Ethereum along with the whole cryptocurrency market once again went down. And that lasted for at least 3 months. But now we are somehow recovering already. Ethereum has went back above $700. More growth is seen.
7936  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin owner die. It means bitcoin also lost forever? on: May 02, 2018, 10:49:09 AM
That is not lost. It is still somewhere there but to no one's access anymore. That will not be deducted from the circulating supply either. Nobody would do that as there is no one who is in control of removing lost coins. There is actually no one in the Bitcoin team who has a way to determine whether the Bitcoins in someone's wallet is lost due or stolen or hacked.
7937  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will kill itself on: May 02, 2018, 09:53:39 AM
One of the best features of Bitcoin is it's anonymity. This is also one of the reason why countries are banning or at least hesitant to embrace the technology. From money laundering to illegal drug transactions to human trafficking. We always blame the FUD from mainstream media, financial institutions like banks, the government etal. But do you think, the one that would "kill" Bitcoin is actually the nature of it.

Here's another news where Bitcoin was being used in an illegal activity. This will raise a lot of eyebrows because it concerns our children.

http://www.news.com.au/finance/money/investing/bitcoin-could-become-illegal-after-its-blockchain-was-discovered-containing-child-abuse/news-story/bf486e6e8de453fd7ad2abba019952dd 

I don't agree. The reason you provided that you think will probably kill Bitcoin is also the very reason why Bitcoin came into a certain point of popularity. How can it kill Bitcoin when in fact it is the very life of Bitcoin? The reason why Bitcoin became the Bitcoin that the whole world came to know of is that it is decentralized, anonymous yet transparent, and digital. These the sources of convenience and efficiency of Bitcoin.
7938  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Token bounty must hold or sell? on: May 02, 2018, 09:15:58 AM
Many bounty campaign give token..often token bounty has not been paid .. you already exist in the market .. after the price paid it down drastically ... if we hold the token .. later will be able to rise or even added down the price of token bounty

If you hodl the token, most probably it will rise after some time. By the time the bounty participants are paid with such tokens, the project may not have yet started to build on their ideas and goals actually since its ICO has just ended. So it therefore takes some time from that point for the coin to really represent something that is being used by the project's clients. The growth will certainly follow the product and its release to the market.
7939  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: KYC of bounty hunters on: May 01, 2018, 01:57:34 PM
Bounty programs are asking bounty hunters to do KYC before they are paid for work done . What do you think of this development.

I don't think it is necessary for the bounty hunters to undergo KYC. The bounty hunters will only receive a little portion of the tokens sold or minted. It is not that significant actually. What I agree with the KYC implementation is that it will cover those who invested in any ICO with a significant amount. Those who invested with little amounts can even be exempted from such process.
7940  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoin is for day trading on: May 01, 2018, 01:00:06 PM
I see that people support that altcoin suits better for day trading, and not for holding. I just don't get why.

That is not true. For sure you have seen altcoins turned from a few cents to several dollars. I am sure you have known how Ethereum went to more than a thousand from just a few dollars when it started. I am sure you have heard about Lisk, Litecoin, Monero, Ripple, and so many other altcoins climbing so high in the charts after a year or more of existence. Hodling is not about Bitcoin or altcoin. It is about the future of a certain coin.
