801  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Let's deploy free open-source crypto-exchange in 15 minutes on: December 25, 2019, 06:37:43 PM
Is this based on Rubykube software?  
The reason I ask is there is very few projects that use ruby for this type of thing and we have seen RubyKube in the past I wondered if this was based on that project?

Also running something like this takes a lot of skill and time, End of the day if people use it your dealing with customer funds and need to be aware of security processes to protect wallets and user data.  It's not something to just go out and start an exchange there are a lot of things a user should factor in.


*EDIT*

On further inspection this seems to be a clone of RubyKube's, MicroKube system I would advise anyone looking to use this to compare it to the ORIGINAL source as the author of this topic has failed to tell you this is a clone of RubyKube.

Crypto and bitcoin Not good investment as before
But crypto can be Vehicle for investment.
So the new era will be the New question if we invest and hodl but what we can do with crypto..


Since its de centralized we should run the Whole equity markets on crypto.


Also id like to point out my new vision new idea what can be done with crypto ;

Link here to Other topic :
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5211481.0


I would say Bitcoin is a solid investment for the long term, If you look at the structure of bitcoin and notice that we have barley even scratched the surface in terms of the longevity.
If you are to look back at the early prices and where we sit now on a timeline basis it paint's a much better picture of how long a term people are talking.

I don't mean months or even years, Personal, I am looking at it the the terms of 20 years+.


So let me explain my thoughts (please note this is NOT financial advice and is my own speculation on Bitcoin and the future)

In terms of Bitcoin and rewards for the miners we are what they would say "just out the gates"

Below is a table showing the halving event's and rewards going forward in bitcoin as you will see we are almost passing the the 4th mile marker in terms of rewards halving and block height

Code:
Block      Reward (BTC)
---------  ------------
        0  50.00000000
  210,000  25.00000000
  420,000  12.50000000 <- we are here (block 609,209)
  630,000   6.25000000
  840,000   3.12500000
1,050,000   1.56250000
1,260,000   0.78125000
1,470,000   0.39062500

6,510,000   0.00000002
6,720,000   0.00000001

Now lets look at a quick summery of what the lowest price in USD over the years for bitcoin has been per-year to date

Code:

2009 - $0
2010 - $0.05
2911 - $0.29
2012 - $4.19
2013 - $13.29
2014 - $314.69
2015 - $201.29
2016 - $374.06
2017 - $784.75
2018 - $3232.93
2019 - $3385.97


I don't know what book's on investing you have been reading but if you bought the LOW of each year and sold the high of each year thus far you would be doing exceptionally well.
As the reward falls and more users decided they want into bitcoin the price will continue to grow,  as a sound money for the world without borders you can't find much else that has done what Bitcoin has over the years.

I thought I was being quite open minded with my answer,  

Two things thought unless your tracking order ID's and you can track the wash trading and show order id's being hit by wash traders to push the price then I don't think a video of the market moving is "proof"

Second again there is no "rule" to stop someone pushing a price over the EMA it's not illegal to boost a market price it happens every day in every market there is nothing you can do about.
this.

My remarks we're not ignorant and they were not meant to cause offence but without ACTUAL proofs this is going to be very hard to prove.

On another note I will link you to my Tether tracker for trading view. if your really tracking all this then this indicator may be something interesting for you to use.

https://www.tradingview.com/script/vmMhbmZa-Tether-Market-Cap-Indicator-Cross-Exchange/

unfortunately I don't believe you could be more wrong when you say "there is no rule to stop someone pushing a price over the ema, or that it's not illegal to boost the market price."  If a purchase is made with the intent to force the price up or down (against regular supply and demand) then it's a felony.  Usually it's from the buying side these days.  I hardly ever see a sell which seems like it's "forcing" the market, and that's not just because I like them.  I mentioned the CEA I believe which describes that in one of my first posts.

I'll have to end this thread though because it seemed to end well.  As you can see there is a conflict of interest and the price has now crashed entirely all the way back down since that fake buy.  It damaged traders who were tricked by it trying to get attention even if it goes back up and this activity isn't something that should be just overlooked "just because it happens everyday."  Just because it happens everyday unfortunately doesn't mean it's normal or should happen or is safe at all.  



Sorry but you are wrong it's not a felony at all to cause the price to rise. 
If that was the case you should be reporting the SPX500 it's been going up since 1999....

If I go to cryptowatch right now and I see that if I buy 304.31 BTC  for a cost of $2228102.60 and it would cause the price to rise by 1.151% your telling me this is a felony?

http://prntscr.com/qf9wwg

I think you have the wrong idea on the market you cannot prove it's manipulation without linking the order ID's simple.

You stated this

Quote
 If a purchase is made with the intent to force the price up or down (against regular supply and demand)

That may be correct for things like company share price or stocks but NOT crypto currency anyone can decided today. tomorrow, next week to buy as many of them or sell as many of them as they like it's called the Open Market..

I think you are trying to put share and stock rules into bitcoin if this market is too volatile for your I suggest you move to traditional markets and deal with the HFT industry there.
805  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If anyone knows who's making this happen can you please request that they stop? on: December 24, 2019, 03:03:33 PM
I think it will be extremely hard to prove this is what is happening, Have you factored in there are some very large players in the markets and the "unexpected" volume could be a trader defending there position in the market?  It won't be the first time a whale has pumped capital into the market to either push out of a loosing trade or to support the price.

Your right about bot's trading on the markets this is happening on almost every exchange now you will probably notice that these moves became much more prominent since the introduction to the futures markets where traders can trade with up to 125x on binance.

So lets say your a whale you have a few 1000 BTC in your stash,  You open a 100x Long on bitcoin expecting the price to  go up,  the market moves against you, as your PNL suffers into the negative it would be assumed that it would be possible to buy up some coins on the spot market to push your position back to a positive PNL.

Every market has it's big players be that stock market or crypto there  is always someone with a bigger balance waiting to move the price.

I think this is what you are looking at and not targeted manipulation of the markets.  It's hard when things  move against you to not think that it's a setup or it's not normal but it is normal and it's part of the markets.



Unfortunately MagicByt, that's what a lot of first responders seems to reply saying.  Or something along the lines of "you're not ready," "go home kid," "just pretend you didn't see it," "how could wash trading hurt anyone."  These seem to be very ignorant remarks.

That's the problem.  This is clearly wash trading (going against the market because you want to force the price or have mental problems you're trying to "relieve" by screwing with the market literally everyday).  Everyday I have to sit here and see something try to force the price back to the ema lines after any sell that even slightly brings the price down.  It then turns into an immature war for this trader or trading group, or a wasted trade that goes no where for 10 hours or more (sometimes a week) only to crash.

This isn't some game where "big money" people just get to boss me around since they have a lot of money.  There's clear effort going on to constantly force the price above the emas and that's illegal if it's a nationally traded commodity.

I thought I was being quite open minded with my answer,  

Two things thought unless your tracking order ID's and you can track the wash trading and show order id's being hit by wash traders to push the price then I don't think a video of the market moving is "proof"

After having a search I did find a Github project that is aimed at Bitcoin keys and the secret sharing I wonder if this might be something the space should explore in further detail it would be nice to see something like Electrum add something like this from wallet creation screen I think it would make a nice addition.

Please note this is a public repo and I am posting for reference only.

Another thought would be to split your seed with SSSS.

although it could work but Shamir's Secret Sharing (3 S not 4) is designed for when you want to "share" a secret between multiple people so it is more suitable for cases when more than one person is involved. not for the case where 1 person wants to encrypt and store 1 secret (mnemonic) in a safe way.


I was under the impression it was called Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme as the official name hence SSSS. Smiley

It can also work with a single person.

Lets say I wanted to split a seed down and store the split shares in seperate locations.

Ie  split1 - Keep in home safe.
    split 2 - Keep at bank safety depo box
    slipt 3 - Kept at friends home in safe.

you are correct in saying it works best with other partys but it is possible to use it to split your seed and store it in multiple parts.

It would be nice to see some kind of encrypted container for seeds like true crypt where user generates a new seed, the seed is then encrypted and output as a secure container file that could be backed up and stored somewhere secure.

Or something like the mouse movements for entropy that truecrypt uses could be usefull in the space.

Possible people gearing up for brexit in a few days time I know of a lot of people who are converting there GBP to BTC now in preperation for the big fall of the GBP.

There are always many factors that can cause moves like this but my guess is world economic situation is becoming extremely dire. The finnancal experimantation of the west is about to catch up and cause pain the smart money is moveing to crypto-based assets and bitcoin.
817  Other / Off-topic / Re: Maybe Satoshi created the greatest prize competition on: October 26, 2019, 02:20:18 PM
We think that the early mined coins of Satoshi are also a prize competition and that Satoshi is waiting this coins to be moved. We also think that he will not respond after somebody moves the first coins but it will be a message to the Bitcoin community that the private keys are somehow on the blockchain. If Satoshi disagreed with that conclusion he would have moved the coins to other addresses.

Interesting hypothesis, but these could have also happened...

- He lost the keys (James Caan doesn't know how to do backups)
- He became incapacitated in some way, and family/friends didn't know he was Satoshi, or how to recover the funds
- He saw how big Bitcoin's economy had become, and chose to destroy (or put on ice) his private keys, knowing that if the early blocks move it could crash the economy

I still think the keys are out there.
We're just looking in the wrong places.

I have done LOT of research into this and I do believe there is another project that is linked to bitcoin in more ways than one that may hold the answer to this question.

To seek the truth one must think outside the "blox" Smiley pardon the pun.

I do think that there are keys out there to be found I highlty doubt the person behind the satoshi name was a greedy or self centered individual I would put money on it there is a cryptographic puzzle out there related to numbers, Images, and the blockchain.

The question is who will solve it?

Don't know if any of you spotted this but this one flew under the radar a fair but/

Bitfronter Capital Holdings.

I funny enough found there chart on Trading view by chance did some digging into them and it seems they managed to float a penny stock and make a fair chunk of change to build this mining facility.

https://www.bloomberg.com/quote/BFCH:US
https://twitter.com/bitfrontierinc?lang=en
https://bitfrontiercapitalholdings.com/

They seem to be building a mine facility in Fredericksburg, VA.

This one seems to have slipped under the radar of many and it looks like the managed to pull in a fair amount of funding for the project.

Anyone shed any more light on these guys?

819  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Is encrypted mnemonic technically possible? on: October 25, 2019, 11:39:36 PM
More people are looking at things like ssss now to hide there seeds I do think some encrypted method would be highly beneficial to the space adding that extra layer of security over the seed may prevent quite a lot of issues.

Another thought would be to split your seed with SSSS.

Below I have taken some words and split them into 10 parts with a combining threshold of 3 meaning I only require any 3 of the 10 shares to reconstruct the data.

try it yourself pick any 3 of the values below and enter them here and set the threshold to 3.

Thank you guys for the good wishes.

I'm out of words, I can't believe I hit a block second time here in the solo.ckpool. (previous time was at block 391994).

It was actually quite a gamble with 0.092 BTC for 12-hour 10PH rental.

Great pool, great forum, great people.

Good luck for everyone, let's keep cracking those blocks..!

Well done!  
What a result!

I was thinking a rental would crack this one was not long after telling someone might be a idea to do a large rental.

Enjoy the coin!
