this is so subtle it is brilliant. i could not believe my eyes when i saw that bitcointalk lost its objectivity. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Just goes to show, never trust your eyes! This was a pretty good writeup I saw of this ICO. https://coinclarity.com/spotting-a-scamcoin-howeycoins/Can you believe the nerve, not only are they insinuating HoweyCoins are a scam, but they're also fake! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Um.... Did you bother to read any of the comments in this thread before posting here? Not a SINGLE petro has been distributed to ANYBODY! This is a huge scam! People like coinve, besides the steady paycheck, what reason could you possibly have for promoting this evil piece of garbage? Your president just totally fucked all of his citizens! And here you were defending him for MONTHS!! The petro has a value of ZERO. Its not being traded anywhere because it in essence doesn't exist! Frankly the only way Maduro has out of this blunder is his mysterious disappearance. To make matters worse, the "strong bolivar" is already being traded at a 40% discount in Venezuela's black markets, less than a week after its creation: "Adding to Venezuelas problems, shoppers also need to calculate the prices of goods at black market exchange rates. The sovereign bolivar, according to official exchange rates, is set at 60 per dollar thanks to the Petro, but on the black market the currency is reportedly going for 40% less" http://www.theyucatantimes.com/2018/08/venezuela-totally-paralyzed-by-launch-of-sovereign-bolivar-currency/Maduro just reduced the value of his national currency from near zero to zero. What a shitshow!

And ultimately, this is the reason why bitcoin is so useful, and promising. There are no worries about a fiat currency collapse, bank runs, bank limits, etc. And it's practical - Venezuelans can use it on anything that has access to internet. Once they gain access, they have a place to store their wealth safely without worries, and also transact internationally without limits - huge improvements and benefits.
One problem: unlike bitcoin, there will be a central authority directly dictating the price of the petro. Much like the bolivar, its price will be set by the government at government-controlled crypto exchanges. At least the petro can't be printed into worthlessness. However, seeing as how zero Venezuelans actually own a single petro (it still hasn't been distributed), chances are the entire thing is just a ruse to pretend that the current administration can actually do anything about the country's severe economic problems. Government graft, greed and corruption won't subside because of the petro.

How is this a Top 100 coin?
"Building Data Economy Ecosystem"
That's not even a real sentence!

I realize this thread is just for advertising ICOs, so while I'm here, this is the first ICO in my 4.5 years at Bitcointalk that I've ever actually sponsored. It has some real potential because its something people can actually use. It was created by Bruno Kucinskas, one of the most respected individuals on this forum (he goes by the sceen names Phinnaeus Gage, Gleb Gamow and YuTü.Co.in). Website: http://www.yutubopolis.com/ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4420143.0Where to join the Pre-ICO: http://yutu.co.in/pre-ico/YuTü.Co.in is a novel platform dedicated to bringing monetization back to YouTubers via cryptocurrency. We offer YouTube channel managers the opportunity to "crypto-commoditize" their YouTube channel by creating their own cryptocurrency token for them. These coins can be traded for an Ethereum token, named YuTüCoin (YTC), on our in-house exchange, which can then be traded at any number of outside exchanges for ETH, BTC and whatever other pairings are available. In addition to providing a new source of funds for YouTubers, we also allow the opportunity for their fans to show their support by purchasing the coin(s) of their favorite YouTuber(s), or even mine the coins directly. Thus, anyone can "invest" in a coin that represents a YouTube channel brand and trade it on a free market exchange. In addition to the above, we provide all participating channel managers with their own page on our platform which they can use to sell merchandise, communicate with their fans and host any content of their choice. In summary, YuTü.Co.in aims to re-empower the many YouTubers who are no longer eligible for YouTube's monetization programs and give their fans the opportunity to "invest" in their channel brand.

considering how much people have disappeared and how many people have been dragged into these cases, we still have to say thank you that the fbi did not create a special team to catch all the leaders from managers to heads. many american citizens suffered and went to court.
Actually the FBI is quite involved in prosecuting Americans with Bitconnect ties: https://www.cryptonewsz.com/bitconnect-promoter-calen-powell-detained-and-questioned-by-fbi/166/They even interviewed Trevon James 5 months back, who is due to appear before the SEC later next month.

Bitcoin cash also needs to apply for an ETF. I hope that in the near future, some organizations will apply for an ETF.
![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Why? If BTC doesn't have an ETF, BCH doesn't stand a chance in hell! Its actual real-world utility is a sliver of that of BTC's. By the way, wasn't this kind of deceptive self-advertising ruled illegal? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FiXm0RbD.png&t=664&c=BC05_DIzIiUqRA) I just imagine some idiot checking his BCH balance while sipping his morning coffee, thinking its bitcoin. "Honey guess what? According to my new bitcoin.com app I still have the same amount of bitcoin as yesterday."

@hatshepsut93. What? Way too many? But I have not noticed any newbies praising the petrodollar or the Venezuelan government for creating it. I reckon the newbies are too busy searching for the next 1000x Ethereum token to be bothered in a NEM token hehehe.
One problem: the PTR NEM token has never been distributed. you can see all of them sitting in this address: http://explorer.nemchina.com/?#/s_account?account=NC2LEUTTZVOZLP6TBZSZFWTFR3MQ7O3LXZYXRRM4Pretty much everything coming from the government has been a lie meant to get peoples' hopes up.

I looked at the site and did not understand how to participate in the ICO?
You'll always have 14 days, 22 hours and 26 minutes to figure it out, so don't worry about it too much.

go ask Carlos.... ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) I kind of hope TheRealCarlosMatos will show up to answer. I like the idea that Carlos Matos only posts on this forum using quotes from his famous investor conference speech.

Where can i buy bitconnect?
I bought mine at your mom's house. No but seriously. Why would you want to buy a dead scam coin? Like what's going on in that anonymous, small-time melon of yours? Are you posing a rhetorical question that you hope will be answered, sadly thinking you can create a pump in which you can sell your even sadder stash? That's the best case scenario, which is still pretty fucking bad.

where is the Internet? when we use the word "air" to describe the internet, or where our data are stored, is it truly in the air? I mean we go to sleep knowing our email, our records are on air, and we pull it out anytime we want, are we sure it is not saved somewhere where someone is in control of them without our knowledge? what do you think about this?
It's the latest in nano-technology. It's called "actual cloud computing." We use actual clouds to store data by re-arranging water vapor to mimick the functions of a server.

This person that is so hostile to you is an agent, unwittingly or not, of U.S.A.'s policy of aggression against the Venezuelan people and its democratically elected government, because Venezuela is trying to act liberate itself from Washington's control. This person participates in this forum only to attack the Venezuelan government; he's not interested in crypto currency.
Perhaps you are right but he still understands the petro better than Maduro does. It's a double-edged sword with the average Venezuelan citizen getting fucked at both ends: - the U.S. is indeed actively trying to undermine the Venezuelan economy as punishment for not allowing their corporations entry to their country - the current administration in VE is completely inept and corrupt and absolutely do not care about bettering the lives of their people.

I repent on the B.S. I said about this coin and I wish you all the best of luck with it going forward.
Because I commented on it once or twice I now have to see it in my new replies section all the time, thus God punished me and even though I am in a small hell I can still repent.
There's 2,000 coins to choose from and everybody needs a hometeam / hobby. So, good luck to you all.
You know you can unwatch any topic, right? Actually you can't. I tried Watching and Unwatching it just to double check, but every thread you've ever commented in will appear in the "new replies" section after a new comment is posted there. Its one of the weird quirks about this forum.

If Lukejr... If Back... If Vays...
Funny how you fell you need to trot out personalities - rather than discuss concrete aspects of the chains and the implementations built thereupon.
The difference is you have the two biggest douchebags in all of crypto doing everything they can to fud bitcoin and promote bcash, that's the difference. Wright is a douchebag. He could never even admit outright that his entire "I am Satoshi" bit was an utter hoax. He's a sociopath who won't stop until the world addresses him as "God." Ver is a douchebag. He uses his control of bitcoin.com to mislead people into buying bcash when they are trying to buy bitcoin. It took a lawsuit for him to stop his atrocious behavior. Bitcoin doesn't need to resort to such tactics because it is the superior product. But if you want to discuss "concrete aspects," let's discuss how the popularity of bcash is concretely waning while the popularity of bitcoin is concretely growing. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F3b9AR3E.png&t=664&c=550uKYKY0HUEUg) On January 1st, BTC had a 38% dominance of the total market cap while BCH had 7%. Today, BTC has grown to a 52% dominance while BCH has slipped to 4.4%. Now if BCH was seen as "better," "less speculation-based" or simply "more popular" than BTC, this percentage would be on the rise as it could be considered a relatively stable store of value. However, its % dominance has been on the decrease along with every other altcoin because BTC has proved it can scale to demand. The inherent utility over BTC that BCH proposes is no longer necessary because BTC has adapted and evolved to find ways to scale. Really Roger should have come up with a more original name than "Bitcoin Cash" if he wanted it to succeed. It's confusing to new users and a blatant ripoff / coat-tail ride to veterans.
