Looks like we have another dope award to give out. Lets bite our nose to spite our face. Are you guys serious? What region of the world are you guys from.
If you want to pass kyc anyone (besides maybe the poster above) can easily beat that system. Its all public info.
After reading some of the posts in here you can see the bankers are already winning. These cannot be real people making these comments. I wonder where some of you guys are from. You must have had dictators beating you down from birth. Now I see why America stomps on all you guys and you sit there and take it. The powers that be will run stuff forever until we thin the herd of sheeple.
I especially love the guys that want full background checks to protect them from the big bad cheaters. May your chains rest lightly guys. There is a reason you will never make it.
I think we have to face the reality of big ICOs now - they maybe are big bankers, they maybe are not. But if they want to go the route of ICOs, then their bounty programs also have to fit with the realities of regulations. In fact, if they only want to catch cheaters, then they probably have already done with success. I saw now several KYC bounty programs with SIMPLE KYCs have more than 80% fails. Not talking about getting passport verified even, just simple email and phone number verification. I think if people do not want to give this away, then they just look for non-kyc bounties. Simple as that. |

I think the low price coins like Deeponion, Ripple, Verge, Siacoin and Bitbean (Bean cash) these coins will be grow in 2018. You can invest in low price coins because they will gives you big growth in small investment.
These low priced coins are definitely very attractive because of their potential to grow, but they are also very prone to profit taking, which is why you keep seeing them crashing when they reach the 2x and 3x levels of people who buy a lot during the dips. I was a Siacoin owner for half a year, and even I was forced to liquidate when they reached my 2x entry. I knew it would dip and it did, like it is right now. As long as people keep mining those coins for a long time, you need a lot of patience for them. |

Hello guys, came across this coin from another post in altcoin discussion and I was drawn to your charity distributions, specifically the 10% orphan donations from mining. It is a personal thing for me, for reasons I will not share for now. I went to the website but could not find real specifics on this donations. Where can I find more detail such as total donated so far, and proof of donations?
I see only compassion.com but see also it can be voted. Where and how would I vote, for example?

The whitepaper looks interesting, i.e. limited supply, but should long-term, faithful holders of XMR get ready to move everything over to XMV after a safe waiting/adjustment period?
Which has best potential for longevity?
I tend to be very simplistic in my decisions, and I think it is safe to say a lot of long time users will be exactly the same in way of thinking. Let us look at Bitcoin for example. All of the BTC forks are supposedly better. Faster, cheaper, whatever. Bitcoin GPU was supposed to address the problem of hashpower and ASICs. But in the end, do long time users want to switch when actually the old tech is already solid and has a userbase? I do not think so. I will not be making my switch. XMR will be around long after the fork dies, and this will just make more forks. |

I just read one thread about the red market "blaming" Vitalik Buterin. I find that laughable. The real reason is people are starting to bet on BTC again and selling alts even cheap. It always go through this cycle before the alts really take off. Some also use the opportunity to collect more alts later...sell now (high), buy later (low). It can be a good way to play but very risky. I used to do it but learned I don't have the nerve to be in that game. Play it, or HODL...both are valid ways to go. Just don't panic, bullish market is coming...BTC first then alts (may dip a little but) will follow.  This is really looking like 2017, if people recall, there were two distinct patterns that alts followed in concurrence with what was happening with Bitcoin. Early 2017, like early 2018, Bitcoin was beginning its move upwards of $1k and alts were dropping. This was attributed to people selling off alts to retake their shares of Bitcoins. But remember in spring when Bitcoin went towards $5k and ETH, Doge, LTC, and almost every alt was making new ATHs? This was crypto all in same mode. Now we all just came off the "everything red" mode. And now it's back to "opposite of BTC" mode. Interesting yes? |

The timeline seems pretty boasty. A mobile app used for transferring crypto by person to person is common and isn't a new technology.
The only thing that could get this successful is if they can really manage to be partnered with many telcom worldwide. They are targeting atleast 10 telcom for half a year? With all the talks and discussion that's a dream.
thats what we called Far From reality,this is a common project and if im not mistaken its almost copied from other existing project(i might be wrong ofcourse)but theres nothing new about this.well what i can say is goodluck to your investment,but you cant have someone to join you in this coin because theres nothing to look forward too I used to think like this but this could be another example of "coin that looks exactly like others and yet seems to do well in price". I mean, think about it. We had the big DAG coins just sweep the scenes like Nano/Raiblocks and even Iota, but they're DAG just like Byteball, and in fact appear no different. Or let us look at the Verge privacy coins that honestly do not provide anything special than already given by Monero Dash and ZCash. They still did well,,, so I guess I have no idea how to tell this market anymore. Is it luck? How well they shill? Is it the McAfee effect? |

The only wars being waged are by the pretenders to Bitcoin, something I read somewhere and something I completely agree to. Bitcoin does not attack, it does not need to, because it just does its thing without needing to worry about anything around itself. Other alts are respectable and try also to do their own thing. The worst are those like Bitcoin Cash, deliberately attacking and trying to harm Bitcoin so it can be number one.
They never learn their lessons. Kill Bitcoin and you kill crypto. They just need to see how alts performed in January.

I would put in $5 to 5 different altcoins, if possible all below 50 cents so you have at least 10 coins or tokens of each. Now it actually does not really matter in terms of units, since even small denominations have equal chance to grow but I am thinking here of the fees when you withdraw (for example $5 of bitcoin is 50,000 satoshi and most sites charge withdrawals of more than that).
Personally since the amount is so small, it does not matter and you want quick turnover. My picks would then definitely be Verge, Siacoin and Digibyte, and go for any top volume trading. You can aim for quick 10% on each and you will see that this hits within a month. Or aim for 30% or more and hold out for months. If you are lucky one might even x2 or x3.
If you just want to forget. Then go for Waves, Stratis. Wait for a year and you will be happy.

Let be real. How many of you guys actually read the whitepaper? I read whitepaper sometimes, but reading multiple of them can be a burden and a headache. Do you guys got any tips on getting through whitepaper a little faster. It killing a lot of time. Thank.
In my own experience, I never read even a single white papers in any ICOs and projects because I am too lazy on reading. In fact, we can't spot good or bad or scam ICOs through reading their white papers and all the resources on the internet but instead I am checking straight to their Telegram Channels and other social media networks and communities. For me in my personal view, reading white papers are such a waste of time. In the real world, you would probably just be either really lucky to survive, or you would end up eventually losing all your money in a bad scam. But you know what? in the crypto and ICO world, you probably have a point. The channels where the devs and managers are the most active probably means that whatever it is, you know they are there for the community and will do something about the price of the token (since this is all anyone seems to be interested in, right?). Whitepapers are becoming more meaningless as every day passes, which is sad. |

The market will reach to zero in an year or two. That is the inside info which I have from the reliable sources.
Insider info from reliable sources, yes we should trust a bitcointalk account with no reputation. We should trust that a guy with reliable inside sources has such a junior account and is willing to boast about it to every one on this forum. And we should of course expect that there are big insiders able to exert control over a decentralized asset or assets. And yes, we all believe whales are going to crash the market because they are sick of making so much money. Try again. And try better. |

It hasn't even started yet but as I did a translation of Myriads.io, I read about it. This project seems interesting as it envolves AI computations done by the large public. Their bounty was pro, their team looks solid and their idea is good. Excellent green flags if you ask me.
Secondly of course my sig: dether.io. Sold out (too quickly). General idea is bringing eth/fiat to the public using an app. Since eth will be huge, this might get huge too. Fiat to crypto is still a barrier for a lot of people. This could help.
These two projects are really in an infant/ICO stage. Nobody knows what will happen but you want to be part of such projects from the start, not when they're on major exchanges in a year or so.
But we have so so many AI projects, all of them seriously looking like each other, and none with an actual AI prediction that can share their results widely or for a long period. I have a feeling they might all be using some form of similar software and just creating their own ICO and token to profit from it. What I have seen work so far is Sharpe Capital, which works on crowd wisdom. They already distributed a lot of profit before their ICO ended. Of course, now everyone wants in and I think their 2nd distribution will be much less. Impossible to tell what gems are hidden. So many look the same. |

Well I suppose that's true of any investment advice and/or strategy... Any Wall St. guy will tell you they're more interested in mass psychology than in fundamentals. Everything is manipulated through fake news etc. Look at the Dow recently, now there is a lawsuit saying they rigged the VIX volatility index to game the markets...
If he made public what his metrics were I would have more confidence in the magic spreadsheet. But more than anything, when McAfee partners with anyone it's usually time for a big pump - the guy has huge assets and a huge following. Unfortunately there is usually a dump soon after.
I'm in XVG for a 1-year+ run. Personally I think the utility of privacy coins will become more and more clear this year, as people are increasingly harassed by tax authorities, KYC, and crypto thieves and hackers. XVG, DASH, XMR, and maybe PIVX or ONION are the best choices IMHO, for various reasons. I'm not leaking my magic spreadsheet tho.
Which is why no one should ever lend more power to something like that. In any circumstance, it stops being a leak when everyone knows it is a leak, in my opinion. But yes, like you said, the big pump is usually true, and I can see XVG bouncing at over 20%, which strangely still does not take it to the levels of early February (when I finally bought some haha). As I mentioned, I do believe in privacy coins but Monero is the only one that instils confidence in me. XVG is only a holding for a year, perhaps two, depending on how it performs. I do not see myself actually using it for anything other than trading! |

It's the peak on history but it's not the limitation. I personally would say that it will break even higher in the future.
You don't believe those folks who are saying that bitcoin will be more than $40,000 in the next few years?
And what's your say about McAfee's prediction that bitcoin will reach $1,000,000?
I always remember older Bitcoiners who told me that the dream was to reach the $1k++ peak that they waited for years to reach back. So when in January 2017, people saw Bitcoin just break $1000, that was a huge reason to celebrate, and so many others who already abandoned the idea said it would not last. We all know what happened after that. Of course, I still believe Bitcoin price can go anywhere. It can go back down to 1k and it could definitely go for 20k again this year, or we may wait another two or three years. |

Monero is dead as we know it. Game theory suggests that when free money is available to users as a result of airdrops, it would be illogical for them not to claim it. Due to the losses in ring signature privacy as a result of this, who in their right might would be willing to conduct sensitive transactions with such an inherently flawed cryptocurrency?
Yeah, and there must a lot of people not in their right mind right now conducting all these sensitive transactions right now. Just going through this thread alone provides a lot of help, and at least you have helpful Monero people suggesting things for you. Try see if you get the same support with any of the fork coins of any coins. Game theory? You are not the first, and not the last. I do not claim all my fork coins, and maybe I am illogical, but hey. Surely more like me around. |

My boring answer will always be the same answer serious people in crypto will tell you. Bitcoin and Bitcoin first for long term. In fact, most of my holdings are long term, but Bitcoin is still always 35% or more of overall portfolio, simply because I have the most faith in the only coin most countries recognize. Litecoin and Waves are samples of different types of crypto, one is a pure currency another for a platform. I also have Monero as the true anonymous coin with decent use and great development.

It is a fantastic opportunity to buy buy buy. Looking for coins right now with highs in December currently reduced by 80% with a relatively flat profile, bored people moving out - me moving in. They will get back to their original value then move past it in 2 months and I will get an easy x5 then blasting past it.
sell everything you own, buy more crypto now before you miss the real start to the year.
Very bad advice. This is just what I did last year middle, I bought bought and bought. It was only half a year later that I managed to break even and then some, but I thought it was too risky to repeat. I most certainly upped my shares during this wonderful dip, but only in the coins I already owned (okay, except for Verge and Ripple, but together less than 3% of portfolio). I want to see Litecoin/Waves and Peercoin all break away,,, and then stay high waiting for Bitcoin to again rush ahead towards $15,000. |

Well, you just contradicted yourself. If it is true that Chinese Asians (a really big market) will be looking to liquidate crypto into fiat for spending then the market price increases we are seeing now does not make sense. I sort of agree on this part because I know for Chinese businesses, it is good feng shui to spend more on celebrating the new year. Do not spend enough and it will be like luck will desert them in business.
But I am wondering, if all these traditional Chinese business people are really that much into crypto? I think it is the other way round, that crypto wealthy are now only entering into business.

Sounds like p2p all right, where there is no house, and players are betting against each other. I agree this is the best model and betfair is the one that successfully introduce it for many years with few issues. I would say this is safer in the sense there is no casino to trust, and if everything only relies on the coding. Of course, the exchange takes their commission/fee, in which case I am going to ask one question here: how much is the fee or commission you take?
If I was going to switch, there is only one reason: better odds,,, it is the only reason I change bookies and casinos. Better odds or lower edges.

I am quite happy to see that Bitcoin looks to be moving back towards 10k again, but am a little curious to see that the alts I have been holding have not really followed suit, except for Litecoin. I remember being in profit when Bitcoin was around $9k (the second last time not this week) but now that it recovered again, the alts have forgotten to catch up. I wonder if this is another of that "Bitcoin up, alt down" phase that we are entering. If so, then I guess I have to look for more buying moments haha,,,

Ah OK, thanks for the clarification, friends. It is just that I have days I only bet on sports, for example just two bets yesterday of 2 mBTC total, but no comps. I only got comps on the dates I played BlackJack, and only for when I bet 1 or more. According to the statistics on the transactions.
It is no issue for me at all of course, I already like the odds for sportsbook and I believe there is no better BlackJack odds online, so I already am very happy.
And looking forward to the sports settings changed!
One question, will we be able to one day exchange coins inside the casino? That would be cool:)
