Is there a way to know if this malware can be detected by software like norton, etc.?   Goodness i worry about all of the wallets I have downloaded.

I guess it all depends on the how you feel about the team but as an actual tech of their blockchain a lot of these are all ethereum based and not really as anonymous as people think it is.   Are you asking this just to make money or about the tech behind it?

It depends on a lot of factors....you need a developer if you want to make a coin that is going to last more than 60 days, etc....the first question you want to ask is what is the core tech do you want to use? Bitcoin, ethereum, other?   If you choose other how stable is that tech?  You see people deal with major hacks when it comes to new coins.  Then you need to decide proof of stake or proof of work....that strategies, marketing, etc. are both vastly different....so lot to think about...but above all you need a good developer.

I agree they are worthless, the tech is crap and just another shit coin.

OK, now this is definitely a scam...you going to need a lot more than $1 million to beat uber, try like $500 million in a specific market...and even then you may not have enough for the 2nd,or even 3rd market to go after.

A lot of people say ICO's are scam but which ICO's have been completely verfified to be a scam?  Like 100% confirmed, is there a list somewhere?

I heard yobit was not a good exchange to work with, I don't know because I trust the person that told me to stay away from it and I think you should too.  I would also list in the exchanges that your customers would want to trade at.  Some exchanged are friendly to X countries than others.

We are seeking experience ICO managers who have extensive experience in managing campaigns, engaging with the forum, providing forms, etc.  We like how some of the ICO's were handled but didn't like others were handled and wanted to look for someone that would do a fantastic job.

Please PM as to what you can offer and the cost.

Thank you in advance.

I am curious about this question but more in regards to what is the tech that is used to build an exchange, how much should it cost or how many hours of development should it consist of.  I have contacted a few people to find out and the price varies.

Let me know if someone can provide some guidance here.

Does anyone use this exchangemycoins.com?  If so, why?  Also, do you know if there are any fees?  The website says there is none but has someone been able to find out if there are any fees?

Thanks!

I am also currently having this problem so I guess this is happening to other people as well.  Setting up a new account is pretty messed up.

for real?!?!?!?!

They do not want to be sued or be attacked by the US government if and when there is regulation, also, if the ICO is a fraud US people can try to sue. Now, most ICO's legally don't want americans in the disclaimers and documents but they probably accept the coins from them.

definitely keep in cold storage at least 90% of your bitcoin or whatever cryptocurrency the rest in a few exchanges that you want to trade in... just so many wallets in exchanges being hacked....

The whole system of ranking is based on a few factors like how long you are on the website, the posts within a two weeks period.   The links provided above definitely should point you in the right direction. I read all of that before I started as I wanted to understand the culture and ethos of this board, which I respect.

Regardless, I would be wary of online or wallets connected to the internet there are so many cases of fraud especially when there is a fork given the confusion, etc.

taxes as property or capital gains which is based on your tax bracket so the question i have is....if i bot a virtual currency at basically 1 dollar sold it at 10 and then converted it to bitcoin then converted it to usd and then to a bank account in the usa...what is the cost basis? I assume it would be the virtual currency price but this is also not clear. 

I believe it should be reported as interest income but given how vague everything is you may want to be conservative and choose the total number that gets tax the most.  Nevertheless, I would advise talking to a tax expert on this.  Bitcoin aand cyrpto currencies according to the IRS is like property.  So, if you have proof of a cost basis and then show the trades (all of them) you need to report the net and all of the interest, "dividends" etc.

Has anyone else experienced something like this or in the USA with USA bank accounts?

Thanks for posting this on the forum especially for us new people that are learning what to watch out for in the community and to avoid being a victim of fraud.
