I am sorry, but I would like to ask you if sending merits to alts is a reason to get a ban? And if no, why you didn´t start with that?  Smiley

I haven't seen any rule stating that this is a reason to receive a ban, but about negative feedback... I don't know... I suppose it's up to the DefaultTrust users to decide that.

i can't help feeling an urge to start a big social media campaign calling JPMCoin fraud as their CEO did in 2017 about bitcoin and see what happens when we do that and how would they react to something like that Cheesy


Please don't, let's not give them free advertisement! Grin There will be some people who will give them their money once they hear the news (if it'll be publicly traded)

But I don't think their goal is to take people's money, they wouldn't make that much by manipulating the price of their coin since the few who would initially trust them wouldn't invest in them again and the damage on their fame and stock price would be more damaging.

The key word is "bank-backed coin", so it's gonna be "backed" from something other than miners or stakers... so in other words it'll be centralised and they may even have control of how many and how often coins are issued.
They could have called it USDT2, it'd sound better and it'd be better at describing this JPMCoin.

Here is the latest news on Cryptopia. The company got control again but site continues offline.

https://i.stuff.co.nz/business/110607639/30-million-dollars-worth-of-stolen-cryptocurrency-is-hiding-in-plain-sight

Does it means DEX are bad as they can be sanctuary for criminals?


That's an interesting point, but on the other hand a DEX wouldn't be hacked (or self-hacked) like it happened with Cryptopia.

lol that OP was so deep! Cheesy
But in reality I'm sure it doesn't help any more than changing fiat money to stocks, precious metals and other commodities. Exchanging your money for Crypto won't destroy the banknotes, it'll only reduce their buying power.


Very interesting point of view, but I'm afraid in the end the bank still wins. People withdrawing their money from banks will likely lead to one of the following scenarios:

a) Central banks will allow banks to run on smaller fractional reserves and / or print more money lend more money to banks.
b) Banks will charge higher interest rates on what little money they can lend to people due to supply and demand.

Neither of which would be a pretty sight. Let's keep in mind that debt is inherent to the way our current economy runs, so it's unlikely to go away easily.

About your point (B), I can see it going the other way too. I mean, banks offering higher interest rates in order for more people to save fiat currencies in banks.

This article is written in more detail. https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/110556217/cryptopia-could-reopen-but-founders-are-keeping-silent
I do not like that the founders put all the responsibility on the police and do not give any updates/news. Mistrust only increases

From the article,
"I don't think serious players will be going back but there's always a new wave of traders who will probably be totally unaware of what's happened."

Well, I don't think big players would ever trust Cryptopia if they had a choice, and Cryptopia was financially fine without them. So I don't expect that a fall from "untrustworthy" to "totally untrustworthy" will have a big financial impact to them.
809  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can REGULATION Really Be Beneficial to Bitcoin? on: February 13, 2019, 10:38:20 AM
No matter the regulation, people will keep using it without restriction and there'll always be an illegal use in the dark web.
It's the same with fiat money with only difference that in order to use fiat in illegal activities and get away with it, most of the times you need to be rich.

What can hopefully get regulated is the price manipulation and the exchanges' responsibilities.
  • If for example USDT is not regulated, then exchanges can "print" unlimited USDT and buy unlimited BTC.
  • If the same person can buy both Futures and actual Bitcoins in unlimited amounts, there's no escaping the price manipulation.
  • If exchanges can do whatever they want, putting coins in maintenance out of the blue and calling "oops, we got hacked, bye bye" it's hard for trust to be built
If those 3 points were to be improved, I can see more "classic" investors getting into Bitcoin.

By the way... the solutions to all those points are very simple, I've though of doable regulations for all these points.

What's up with the latest Ark price spike? Am I seeing this correct or is a glitch?

That's what I've been wondering about 6 months now... "why is ARK's price under 1$?"
It's still cheap.

812  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XRP] Ripple Speculation on: February 12, 2019, 07:55:28 AM
we all know that riple is a fomo king,...just hodl a bit more, i have faith in 10666-11666 satoshi, i think XRP can hit 1.6 usd this year, btc only 8.5K,...also ETH is ok., yes i see, but BNB is taking ETH pile a bit isnt it? XRP doesnt have a competition...in their filled except XLM

Well... XRP's supply will start getting smaller because some coins are being destroyed with every transaction, so even if it'll take many years for this to start matter, for those of us who invest in XRP as a saving account for the years to come, XRP is the best option.

BTC has a hard cap of 21m coins, though this is almost unreachable if you calculate the reward halving... we're over 100 years away from that. In any case, we can think of BTC as a stable coin of the future. I expect BTC's price to get stabilised after about 10 years.

ETH though is not a long-term investment because it doesn't have a maximum supply, it's more of a "gas" for DAPPs and smart contracts. ETH's price will slowly keep going down while keeping a relative steady market cap.
813  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Cryptopia exchange hacked on: February 11, 2019, 12:30:12 PM
Am not sure why some of the big exchanges insist on his customers to pass KYC. Obviously, it does not serve anything, cannot help in finding those responsible for this.

"$3.2 million in tokens stolen from Cryptopia have been liquidated on major #cryptocurrency exchanges"

source: https://cointelegraph.com/news/analysis-hackers-liquidated-32-million-in-tokens-from-cryptopia-hack

Almost in all major exchanges traded with stolen coins. Binance? Kucoin?

KYC is stupid and I believe it serves either the two following agendas,
1) Exchanges have to SEEM like they're regulating their customers.
2) They want to make some extra cash by selling our identities.

Thankfully most of them, if not all, won't check or can't check the authenticity of the KYC.
I mean... some exchanges for example are operated from China... how can they know if I have photoshopped my ID card and my name is faked?
A fake ID isn't an issue for a hacker, heck I'm sure it's not hard for about 1/3 of our community!

With v14.3, I'm getting 2.5gps (GRIN31) poolside using two 1080 Tis at +180/+600/85% on F2pool with 1.2% rejected  I found in the past that both sparkpool and grinmint had too high rejected shares, so haven't bothered with them. I did have pretty good luck with Luxor on Grin29 - near 0% rejects, which makes sense because my ping is ~55ms at Luxor compared to ~330ms on F2pool. I'm planning to go back to Luxor after my next F2pool payout.

Hey,

Are you using win10 ?

Im getting

"Insufficient memory 9171.7 MB available on device (#0). Unable to run the solver"

on every rig, using win10 and 1080ti's.

No, I'm using Linux.

Ubuntu or something else???

I just realised that the thread's title changed from,

  • "Blockchains Interoperability with SmartBridge 🔹 ARK Core v2 & ARK Pay🔹"

to

  • "ARK - DPoS with Dynamic Fees 🔹 NO longer a fork of Lisk 🔹 New CORE v2🔹"

When was ARK a fork of Lisk? I always though that Link is copying ARK!
816  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A conspiracy against Bitcoin? on: February 11, 2019, 09:49:03 AM
I can see Assassin's Creed game in 2025 coming up with a conspiracy theory of what happened somewhere in 2017-2019 with Bitcoin! Maybe a Piece of Eden controls the price! Grin
Well... that's something only Assassin's Creed fans will understand!

Jokes aside, I'm sure there are two possible cases,
1) Bitcoin is underestimated as a fools' game and is ignored by "them".
2) Bitcoin was seen as a threat in 2017 and big amounts were bought from "them" in order to be able to later on control the price.

No answer on the error?

"Insufficient memory 9171.7 MB available on device (#0). Unable to run the solver"

Yes, I'm using Windows 10, but with 11GB from the GPU and the used memory being less than 500MB before the miner starts, there shouldn't be a problem.

Same issue here.

same problem on windows 10

Btw I killed most of the Windows apps while running the miner to see if it had anything to do with Windows keeping too much memory.
I killed the explorer and a lot of background services which I knew what they were, I only left those which I didn't recognize to avoid any damage.
Also increased the virtual memory to 20GB.

Nothing is working.

well
after ARK mobile wallet upgraded,
the price seems going crazy,
the biggest gained on top 100 CMC,
now ark already on #65 on CMC rank,
but i think it will be easy on top 50 ,
i am sure the price can climb more than now.


I think the mobile wallet update is just a coincidence. This was probably a single whale buying a huge chunk of coins! I hope more clever people will realise the ARK's strength and position in the market... well... it doesn't matter for me either way... I'm holding for years!

well, i dont think like that.
if just single whales,buying with large amount
i cant imagine how ARK will survive after it.
well, i just have speculation, probably just short rally,
you can see another coins also got some pump,
and because ARK have some good news,
more people prefer to chose ARK than others.

A single person investing a lot of money and buying a big amount of coins from the market isn't such a bad thing... this person is called investor and that's what we need.
Simple "users" won't push the price up.
The bad-kind-of-whales which I'm afraid of are the mining farms which obtain big amounts of "free" coins. After the last bullrun we have a lot of greedy people who mine only to dump, without caring about the technology or the fight for a more fair financial system. Thankfully ARK is free of them.
However, someone who becomes a whale because they bought from the market is someone who believes in the project. In worst case, they'll sell 100% of what they bought back to the market bringing the price back to where it was before they buy-in.

For the stock market, it's normal for big investors to buy stocks worth of million $ when they believe in a company, and that's what every company is trying to achieve; gather big investors!
