Sounds good, thanks everyone for the quick responses. Many of the threads from ~2010, when BTC had literally - or close to - zero usd value are challenging for me technically, but I love it anyway, great stuff.

Hello, I have spent many hours studying the old threads at your wonderful forum, and I suggest to anyone they do the same. The amount of challenging, high-quality topics combined with no spam or sigs is a refreshing retro experience for me. As we quickly head into 2024, do you think there many real (unpaid) people still posting here at BCT? Have a great day.

Probably not: Crypto Exchange Bittrex Global to Shut Down All trading on the platform will be disabled on Dec. 4, several months after Bittrex's U.S. arm filed for bankruptcy and stopped operations. Is there any where to buy Viacoin right now? I know project looks dead but on the off chance you do decide to give it another go i may as well add to my bag. Is development still ongoing? Development updates seem to have slowed down.
Yes Last year VIA was sometimes great for trading, since it would jump between 200 and 800 sat several times a year. |

Thoughts?Yes, I think I clicked on this hoping to see a picture of your awesome new yacht!  Also, some of the stories were much more believable several years ago, when BTC was rising above dramatically lower prices.

- The Viacoin website is still up
 , maybe we can contact the lead Devs directly and encourage them to get going again?
Edit: The projects looks dead, too bad...[/list] |

I was surprised none of the first ten posts mentioned trading, Congrats post #11! the reasons everyone still keeps their crypto assets on exchanges will vary widely.
and these reasons certainly have a diverse rationale. like some because they are really beginners and don't even know about the risks they take when they leave their assets on the exchange.
and of course there are those who only keep part of their assets on the Exchange. the reason is because they trade it every day (a day trader). and there are also reasons because they only have small assets so they don't have to bother transferring them to their personal wallet.
and i think a beginner who come with a lot of money (rich) and he will start to invest in crypto and bitcoin. and he will invest heavily. so I think the beginner will definitely first explore a safe way to store his investment assets.
there's no way he's going to deposit a lot of money and buy a lot of bitcoins on the exchange and leave it be. I think for now even beginners already know where they have to store their assets to be safe. but most of them still keep some of their crypto assets on the exchange because they really continue to trade them or indeed the amount is really, really small.
Trading is an extremely important answer, because you need orders sitting above and below the market to catch spikes and other big moves. Does anyone know of a good volume DEX (decentralized exchange) which lets you place limit orders? Edit: Did a quick search, and it looks like it's time to stop procrastinating. "CowSwap, a decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator, launched limit orders on Dec. 12..." Edit #2: Cowswap looks interesting but the extreme - sometimes local to a single exchange - spikes will not be nearly as good. This deep into Crypto's existence, are active traders still stuck with CEX's? |

Stake is being kind to their players: What happens to the Stake employee who sent out Mega-Thousands of Dollars by mistake?

Some established alcoins are great investments and repeatedly rise with a bigger % than BTC over the same time frame. If BTC is my "first wife", then is Polygamy allowed?  |

Remember, on this date BTC is having repeated trouble getting back over $10,500, so many people have doubts. I boldly step in with a prediction:
When Bitcoin gets to ~$30,000 for the first time, check back to see the tone of posts in this area of the forum. I predict the wildest speculation will seem realistic to many people.

Seeing everyone in masks takes a lot of getting used to. We have allowed ourselves to be radically changed in a short time, so "No" it is not possible to get the old normal back anytime in this decade.

5+ years for XDN and now no news? This is still listed on Bittrex, does anyone know what happened to the active updates?

Added to the OP:
Reading chart signals is an Art and not a Science. Looking at the fundamentals for BTC you could not get more Bullish than having the USA government creating Trillions in new fiat out of very thin air. People who are waiting now (for example) will probably still be waiting at ~$10,500 to see if the breakout is real this time, and later buying at a much higher price, right as the market is about to short-term crash.
Now the market has traders trained to sell in the area of $10K since it worked so many times before. We are due for a major plot twist.

The future looks really bright for ETH? Do people use it for a wide variety of projects, now that the ICO fad has faded?
I used to think the fade-out of ICO's would keep ETH down, but the platform can be used for many other projects. Smart contracts are extremely exciting and the world is still just starting to discover them. |

Interesting. Thank you for that.
Sure, and welcome to the forum. |

Crypto exchange platform ErisX is bringing Ether (ETH) futures trading to the United States, becoming the second cryptocurrency derivatives product on offer in the country. The announcement came only a few days after the Chicago-based, TD Ameritrade-backed ErisX obtained a digital currency license from financial regulators in New York.... https://cointelegraph.com/news/time-for-eth-to-rise-and-shine-as-futures-trading-now-available-in-usThe future looks really bright for ETH?

If Bitcoin closes above $9200 this week, it's an incredibly bullish sign — and perhaps the biggest since the 2017 bull run — for the coming weeks and months.... Bullish scenario Closing above $9,200 today will be the single most bullish sign that Bitcoin has seen since before the 2017 bull run. This would put $9,980 as the next level of resistance before opening up $11,600 as the next target. https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-charts-hint-at-the-most-exciting-breakout-in-over-a-yearLooking like we could have a great summer, who is ready for some action?

Wrong Section for this news? I will be the first to point out that Ripple/XRP is not an actual crypto altcoin, but a 100% "pre-mined" scheme. The "freezing" of McCaleb’s funds revealed an interesting feature tied to the Ripple public database. Ripple Labs can freeze XRP accounts using two possible methods: one can stop the functionality of an individual account while the "global freeze" can bring the entire network to a halt. The global freeze is not a rumor, and Ripple Labs issued a statement about it on August 1, 2014. ~source https://news.bitcoin.com/is-the-centralized-ripple-database-with-the-biggest-pre-mine-really-a-bitcoin-competitor |

I spent some time looking into your project and am not sure what to think now:
Three years and only listed on one exchange, plus your Medium post mentions looking to raise more money. Does the ICOBench page have more info than your homepage, or am I mistaken? Either way, please consider adding more info to the homepage.

Hey all, I've been away for a while and this forum seems to have changed, perhaps even more quiet?
Do you think "crappy ICO's" chased a lot of people away from this forum? and/or
What did I miss, any big (BCT) news or changes you can think of?
