1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: You want to be a millionaire? if you own 0.01 btc you already are on: December 09, 2017, 11:11:07 AM
The title says it all get 0.01 btc and you are on ur way to becoming a millionaire, you already are one if you do not know the true value of bitcoins, cough cough Satoshis.  Forget about owning a full bitcoin, you want to earn satoshis, which we call the units of 0 and 1 or Mbits milibitcoins.  Soon a few years from now 1 satoshi will be the equivalent of 1 USD or Euro if money is still around. You know yes most of you missed the billion dollar train but still you have time to have a million dollars worth of satoshis.  so if you do the math owning 0.10,000,000 = 10 million USD  so if you own 0.01 that makes it 1 million dollars.  

You are wondering why I am saying bitcoin is worth 100 million dollars right?  We have a long way to go.  Cough cough, Many factors that contribute the value of 1 bitcoin being worth 100 million dollars.  Well Bitcoin is not just a local or gov owned store of value, its competing with Fiat currency all over the world, from USD, to the YEN.  There are many factors I can shoot out but one major one is that Bitcoin is becoming mainstreamed and the fact there is probably going to be 16 million bitcoins in circulation, why I said 16 mil?  because they are probably around 5 million bitcoins lost.  If you want to add to this topic any more factors that reason why you are already sitting on a million dollars, please be free to do so.
  
Edit: It seems a few of you are agreeing and few are not.  I remember a time the few of you said the same thing about 10,000 USD a bitcoin.  I remember when they said that about 1,000 USD.  Guess what they are all kicking their arses now.  

Here is another factor to add that Bitcoin a World Wide curreny that is competing with fiat.

Edit:  Another add you should read https://www.c[Suspicious link removed]m/2017/12/09/bitcoin-cameron-winklevoss-predicts-multitrillion-dollar-value-for-cryptocurrency.html

Winklevoss just made this prediction as well.


We've always felt that bitcoin, given its properties, is gold 2.0 — it disrupts gold. Gold is scarce, bitcoin is actually fixed. Bitcoin is way more portable and way more divisible. At a $300 billion market cap, it's certainly seen a lot of price appreciation, but gold is at $6 trillion and if bitcoin disrupting gold is true and it plays out ... then you can see 10 to 20 times appreciation because there is a significant delta still," Cameron Winklevoss told CNBC on Friday.

"Long term, directionally, it is a multitrillion-dollar asset — I don't know how long it takes to get there," he added.
wow...hope it comes true
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Alternative Block Chains : be safe! on: December 03, 2017, 11:51:53 AM
I haven't seen anybody post about what would be my biggest worry if I were trying out alternative block chains. I realize this may be perceived as "Gavin is FUD'ding anything that isn't bitcoin!"  (FUD == Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt)  But I think some of you might be forgetting some basic computer security fundamentals in the excitement to be early adopters.

When I first heard about bitcoin, my questions were:

1) Can it possibly work (do the ideas for how it works make sense)?
2) Is it a scam?
3) If it is not a scam, could it open my computer up to viruses/trojans if I run it?

I answered those questions by:

1) Reading and understanding Satoshi's whitepaper.  Then thinking about it for a day or two and reading it again.
2) Finding out everything I could about the project.  I read every forum thread here (there were probably under a hundred threads back then) and read Satoshi's initial postings on the crypto mailing list.
3) Downloaded and skimmed the source code to see if it looked vulnerable to buffer overflow or other remotely exploitable attacks.

If I were going to experiment with an alternative block-chain, I'd go through the same process again. But I'm an old conservative fuddy-duddy.

If you want to take a risk on a brand-new alternative block-chain, I'd strongly suggest that you:

1) Run the software in a virtual machine or on a machine that doesn't contain anything valuable.
2) Don't invest more money or time than you can afford to lose.
3) Use a different passphrase at every exchange site.


thanks for the info

4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: [SALE started] STE Token - STeX Project (publicly-owned/decentralize exchange) on: December 01, 2017, 12:14:16 PM
"Have you tried to switch between coins, following trends in emerging tokens?
That is the problem we focus on at this stage: many coins and tokens suffer from one biggest problem ? the lack of liquidity. This leads to enormous implications for active traders/investors. Imagine, you have coin A and a nice opportunity to sell it with profit. And at the same time, you wish to invest in a new promising token or coin B. The only problem - they are traded (or have best rates) in different exchanges, and if you try to trade this idea, you must finish first trade, then transfer your assets from one exchange to another - wasting days and (the world is fast nowadays, remember?) finally missing the brilliant opportunity to raise money - and just because of market insufficiency."


The SteX Project tries to change that!




Roadmap:
  • August 2017 - STE token Presale [/i]
  • November 2017 - STE token ICO (1 STE token = 0.002 ETH)
  • November 2017 - ICO ends distributing more than 30% of all tokens
  • December 2017 - Beta Development
  • 2018 - Commissions distribution
  • February 2018 - Front-end Production


"We will bring professional services to the cryptocurrency world
We are trading professionals with years of experience in developing sophisticated trading algorithms for private hedge funds and brokers. We have profound understanding of all the needs of professional traders and we are not satisfied by what we can get out of the current market state in cryptocurrency exchange and trading."




SALE started!

ICO Bonus active
xchange]https://stex.exchange


The project raised 18476.21 ETH so far


Maybe interesting for some of you guys.
In my mind, more publicly-owned/decentralized exchanges need to establish themselves in the market... with centralized platforms, like Bittrex and Poloniex complying to the many regulations that are sure to come toward the crypto-world, decentralized exchanges need to be a crucial component in moving toward complete independence.



Pre-Sale stage
For those who subscribe at the pre-sale stage: after ICO all pre-sale subscribers will get 10% of Ether collected during ICO - and you still keep your tokens! During pre-sale we distribute up to 10% of all available STE tokens, and after ICO 10% of collected funds is dedicated to those who subscribe at the presale stage. Most probably you will get back what you spent for presale and keep valuable tokens for free. In the best case scenario you'll get times more than your original contribution + future benefits of token holders.

In the case of a successful ICO you can get 5 to 10 (and possibly more) times more than your original contribution, but this totally depends on the demand.

Undistributed tokens burning feature increases your share right after ICO ends.


ICO stage
The ICO stage is designed to reward early subscribers with more attractive token prices. Token distribution price will double for each 5% distributed tokens after the initial distribution of 20% for minimum price of 2 ETH for 1000 STE tokens.
We decided to implement this system in order to raise enough initial funds to bring this project to life at most attractive prices, and get the rest as an operational capital from those who are late. So, we reduce the possibility of failure of the project because of lack of funding on the development stage. Because token supply is limited and defined from the very beginning, we will be able to raise necessary operational funds on stage 3 if sufficient amount is not raised during the ICO stage. Otherwise, stage 3 will be cancelled. Otherwise, stage 3 will be canceled.
Keep in mind that this project is designed to earn Ether tokens from start, so in worst case scenario operational funds can be earned by the project itself. The only problem is that it will take much more time to reach full-scale operational potential.

For any ICO subscribers, even if you join at a later stage with relatively high prices, the main advantage will be growing demand on STE tokens from new STeX users (because of commissions rebate and distribution policy) combined with commissions distribution itself.


Post-ICO stage
We expect to get hold of at least 5% of currency-exchange market in the first year of operations and become one of 10 biggest cryptocurrency exchanges. Please see the Whitepaper (https://stex.exchange/media/pdf/whitepaper.pdf) for details.

All token holders will be rewarded monthly, receiving 100% of project's collected commissions to their ETH accounts.

Apart from internal potential value of the project itself, there is an opportunity to sell STE token for much higher price in the open market because of high demand and price rise.



Code:
Dear STE holders!

We reissued the STE tokens because of the new smart contract functionality that was added and also to reissue
the STE tokens for those who bought them from exchange's wallets by mistake and therefore their tokens in the exchange's system.

We banned known exchange-wallets so it should not happen again.

The whole process is fully automatic and nothing needs to be done by STE holders to receive their tokens.
However, you should check your STE token balance using https://etherscan.io/ as shown on the illustration.
The amount of old and new STE should be the same.

Please wait for a confirmation that all new STE tokens were transferred. There would be no risk of mixing with the old token because
old STE token transfers will be locked forever.

I personally know of no ICO who did this for ICO participants. Basically, every participant who transfered ETH - in spite of many warnings - from an exchange now became his/her fair share of STE tokens!
hope it becomes a success

    Full description

    CryptoBridge is a decentralized exchange (DEX) that supports trading of most popular altcoins. The main innovation is elimination of a single point of failure when trading cryptocurrencies online due to its decentralized nature. In addition, another unique selling point is the usage of a multi-signature federated gateway software used by a dozen trusted gateways, operating on multiple continents, enabling trust-reduced issuing and withdrawing of the supported coins.

    CryptoBridge's target audience are altcoin traders trading on centralized cryptocurrency exchanges which are riddled with performance problems and can be subject to thefts, manipulation, hacking incidents or government takedowns. These problems are solved by the decentralized blockchain based order book and the multi-signature federated gateway network.

    There is no central point of failure. All deposits, withdrawals and all order books are transparently stored on the blockchain. The client will still be able to deposit, withdraw and trade coins even in the event CryptoBridge goes out of business. Each client holds the private keys to their coins. CryptoBridge has no access to the client's funds.

    The blockchain behind the decentralized exchange, graphene, can process up to 100.000 transactions per second and has an average confirmation time of just 3 seconds. The DEX offers a complete API for any interested party to build applications on top of the decentralized exchange.

    Funding: No ICO - why we created an altcoin instead

    To develop a platform like described above, one requires funding to recruit a lot of full time developers and marketing staff. To reach our funding goals, the team has used a rather unusual method: creating altcoin to fund the development of a software platform: BridgeCoin

    Since the latest SEC publication it is certain that any token sale (ICO) that promises future returns can be considered illegal in the US. Though we are not from the US we would still like to stay legal under most jurisdictions and a public mineable cryptocurrency is exempt from such regulation. A fair distribution was guaranteed with the non pre-mined and no-ICO approach.

    The founders of CryptoBridge are also mining BridgeCoin and expect that the market value of BridgeCoin will be sufficient to finance the development of the full application.

    Beta Launch

    Supported coins at this moment are BCO, BTC, BTS and BCH, which means that any combination of trading pairs between those coins is available. The full version of CryptoBridge supporting many other coins will launch Q4/2017, assuming enough funding can be obtained.

    How you as a BridgeCoin owner can benefit from CryptoBridge Decentralized Exchange:

    After the full version of CryptoBridge launches, participating BCO owners will receive 50% from all profits from operation including:
    • Trading fees
    • Coin signup fees
    • Profit from internal arbitrage
    • Referral program

    Rough roadmap until full release

    • Publish crypto-bridge.org website with technical details & FAQ
    • Add hosted web-wallets in Asia (& China) and North America for optimal initial loading
    • Add CryptoBridge DEX to coinmarketcap
    • Add referral support for DEX: users will get a cut from trading fees
    • Add more supported coins and trading pairs
    • Regular usability improvements, based on beta feedback
    • Develop multi-signature federated gateway network & protocol - key benefit over any other exchange in the world
    • Ability to stake BCO and earn 50% profit cut from CryptoBridge profits - key benefit over any other exchange in the world

    6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][PRE-ICO] 💥 Rexpax - World’s First Home Online 💥 on: December 01, 2017, 07:09:48 AM

    Rexpax TOKEN PRE-SALE Runs December 5th - December 11th, 2017



    Token Sale Signup & Details Available At:


    Home Online Changes the World!


    Rexpax is World’s First Home Online. We’re creating a new paradigm of owning: items unite people! We’re giving users free access to the global world of items and help to reach a new level of unity,  communication and trust.

    The Problem:
    We don’t fully profit from our property. Imagine you needed a hammer or  a drill for a  one-time use. You call around, chat, post in social media and roll down lots of digital thrift stores just to find those items. If the search fails, there’s nothing left but to buy that hammer, batter in all nails and store it to a shelf for future dust-collecting.

    The Solution:
    You’re no more limited to the property stored in your house. You have access to the whole world of items and resources around you. All items and resources are distributed by virtual Shelves and Rooms and well-arranged homes lead to well-arranged lives. Home Online solves the problem of items’ availability, Blockchain solves the problem of transaction transparency.



    Abstract


    Y Generation is growing up sharing everything: their files, videogames and knowledge. Facebook has about 2 billion of users each of them having at least 10 items to share. As for the latest research, 68% of people are ready or already do share their items and services. Imagine that 68% of Facebook is about 1,5 billion people! 1,5 billion people ready to share their 15 billion of items! Our purpose today is to become world’s largest items’ platform. And you don’t need to own them.
    Rexpax is at the intersection of three fields: neighborhood social network, marketplace for items and sharing economy on the basis of blockchain technology.







    Product feature


    Rexpax is the world’s first “Home Online”. User Profile lets you organize your items by virtual Shelves and Rooms, rent them out, sell, or give them away for free to your neighbor.

    Within Rexpax users can:



    MVP ready


    We have developed an MVP of the product! Try it here. Organize your items by virtual Shelves and Rooms, distribute them By Rooms, By Types or By Status. You can create various rooms and fill them up with different items.



    Rex Token


    Rex currency is created to bring people together in a new cooperative economy and stimulate the active use of platform capabilities. 30% of Rex currency is reserved as a reward for performing useful tasks within the platform.
    Users will be able to earn Rex by acting useful to other members of Rexpax digital community by creating the content, inviting new users, adding services and other kinds of activity. Learn the details. The more data about themselves and their products and services users give, the more value they can get.

    The final distributionmodel

    Dear Bitcore-Community,

    Bitcore pulled through the first six month and we were able to tap some new exchanges. The community grew very fast and we are pleased to see that Bitcore is a shining example in the altcoin scene.
    By interaction of the community and all members, we were in the position to find the perfect solution for the distribution.

    We will snapshot the current Bitcoin Blockchain and  transfer every address with minimum 0.01 BTC, 50% of the credits in  Bitcore (BTX).
    This way, each private key of the Bitcoin network has simultaneously access to 50% credit in BitCore at any time and without a claiming service.
    All previous Airdrops were Claiming Service or Blockchain Forks. Now that we transfer all the coins, we can put the network through a exciting stress test as well as offer a unique play :-)
    (The first coin which sends more than 5 million outputs in its own Blockchain.)

    Every Exchanger, BitCoin service or single user who owns the private key can access their credit at any time, without help, through a BitCore Client.

    We will distribute about 7 million BitCore into the stage and start with this process after the snapshot and estimate to require some weeks to complete.

    Also, we have a special surprise for all our loyal bitcore holders on october the 30th.
    Every registered bitcore holder with a wallet loaded with minimum 1 BTX gets an special onetime airdrop of 25% instead of 3% !

    These and all other Airdrop will be only paid to registered addresses with minimum 1 BTX. Please register your address on https://bitcore.cc/airdrop.php
    It is important that your credit BTX is stored on your registered address. Addresses which are not registered receive NO BONUS!

    Please check in the explorer if you have taken the correct address which displays the credits > https://chainz.cryptoid.info/btx/

    Also we will be increasing our weekly 3% monday airdrop by 1% every month. You have to sign up your BTX address ONE TIME with a signed message.

    We reserve the rights to make changes as required.
     
    Your Bitcore Team

    REMEMBER : The claiming at bitcore.cc from the April snapshot will end exactly November, the 2nd, 2017, 12 pm CEST (UTC +2).
    The new btc snapshot will be on November, the 2nd, 2017 block 492820 (estimate).

    Bankera

    Digital technology has changed the face of finance. Most notably, perhaps, the birth of Blockhain has enabled us to digitalize money via cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. There have been many attempts to apply Blockchain technology to revolutionize other financial sectors. However, so far, most FinTech companies have been focusing only on a certain niche (e.g. remittances or lending) as they cannot take advantage of the economies of scale enjoyed by traditional banks. Traditional banks, despite having funds, are not as fast at adopting new technologies, being held up by legacy systems.

    Bankera aims to revolutionize banking by taking advantage of what blockchain technology has to offer while still focusing on scale. This means that Bankera seeks to become a one-stop store for all financial services, in the same way traditional brick and mortar banks are now, while using technology to reduce the number of counterparties and thus lowering the cost of banking for the end consumer. The adoption of blockchain technology will also allow Bankera to offer new and unique solutions to its customers.


    Services


    Bankera will offer three core lines of services:



    Payments including payment accounts with personal IBAN, debit cards, interbank foreign exchange rates and payment processing. All services will support both traditional fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, DASH, NEM, ERC20 compliant tokens, and others. In the long term, Bankera will implement innovative solutions such as gross-domestic-product (GDP) linked currencies or the of use exchange-traded funds as a substitute for money.

    Loans and deposits will be a key competitive edge as well as a core service of Bankera. Not only saving, but also current accounts will receive interest. All Bankera clients will be able to benefit from higher interest rates due to proprietary information about borrowers' cash flows as most loans will be given to business clients of its payment processing solution.

    Investments solution will consist of low-cost investment products such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs), crypto-funds (a portfolio of various cryptocurrencies and crypto tokens) as well as roboadvisory solutions for wealth management. Later on, Bankera will offer investment banking services including financing corporate strategies of our business clients.



    Status Quo of Bankera


    Bankera will be operational and will have significant IT infrastructure in place prior to the initial coin offering (ICO).

    Bankera already has the necessary regulatory and IT arrangements to offer individual international bank account numbers (IBAN) which can accept and make payments in the Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA). Bankera also offers competitive foreign currency exchange rates, quick and cost effective international bank wires as well as having the “Bankera Payment Card” linked to the cardholder’s payment account.

    All of these services can be tested at SpectroCoin, cryptocurrency exchange, e-wallet, debit card and payment processor provider of which Bankera will be an operational fork. What has been developed so far will serve as a minimum viable product for Bankera to begin its operations. However, to achieve its goal of becoming a fully operational bank service, Bankera needs to obtain capital.





    Initial Coin Offering (ICO)


    To implement its vision, Bankera is launching its own initial coin offering (ICO).

    During the ICO, Bankera will issue virtual currency tokens called Bankers (BNK) on the public blockchain. The value of each token will depend on the net transaction revenue commission share paid to token’s holder each week.



    First, 20% of net transaction revenues of Bankera tokens will be reserved and sent to the smart contract.



    Second, the smart contract will distribute funds to holders of Bankera tokens pro-rata (i.e. if a holder has 1 % of all outstanding Bankera's tokens, he will receive 1 % of all revenue share.)






    On August 28th we launched a pre-ICO and we offered 10% of the tokens to the public.  After three weeks we reached the set hardcap of 25M EUR.

    On the 27th of November we will launch the ICO campaign and we will offer 30% of the tokens to the public.

    The rest of the 30% tokens will be distributed during a SCO (secondary coin offering) in the future, but never at a lower price than 0.1 EUR per BNK price.

    25% of tokens will be attributed to the team as a motivation, as well as for bounty programs for outsiders. The team part of the tokens will be allocated over time.

    5% will be attributed to advisors, who will advise us for several years until a fully functional bank is in operation.

    Hence, the total HARDCAP for the pre-ICO and ICO is 10,000,000,000 BNK (2,500,000,000 + 7,500,000,000) worth 177M EUR (25M EUR + 152M EUR) and at least 750M EUR for the SCO.

    The initial price of the token during the ICO will be 0.017 EUR. There will also be soft-caps during the ICO, so that the price after each chunk of 1,000,000,000 BNK will increase by 0.001 EUR. See the table below:

    10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Storj - Decentralized Storage on: November 26, 2017, 06:27:01 PM


    Key Features
    Storj is a software project seeking to develop a next-generation cloud storage solution that improves upon existing cloud storage providers in four key areas of the service provided.  

    Less expensive for the same industry standard redundancy, uptime, and reliability;
    Preferably client-side encryption and hashing automatically enforced prior to upload so all data on the Storj network is encrypted and anonymized;
    Open source code released under the MIT license;
    Decentralized, autonomous, and implements multiple blockchains thereby making it resistant to interruptions of service and security risks.

    A key project development goal is for Storj to include a blockchain-based dual purpose token scheme that serves as:

    1. An incentive payment mechanism within the Storj network between consumers and    providers of storage space and bandwidth
    2. An information storage mechanism to record the hash and location of files stored in the Storj network.

    Storj won first place in the Texas Bitcoin Conference 2014 hackathon contest, by unanimous decision.  The prize is a guaranteed $250,000 donation from the backers at BitAngels for their initial round of “kickstarter-style” crowdfunding soon to be announced.  Storj team members Shawn Wilkinson and James Lowry made the final scheduled presentation of the contest, which included a working proof of concept software demo.  The founding devs are now getting the alpha software ready for general testing release while putting the finishing touches on the whitepaper and crowdfunding model.

    Storj is a proposed decentralized storage system that seeks to disrupt the cloud storage industry by dramatically lowering costs to cloud storage users.  It would do this by paying incentives to storage providers in the form of a "blockchain-based dual purpose token" that would also store information about file integrity and storage locations.  The Storj network would autonomously issue, collect, and distribute these tokens so that users could pay for storage and be paid for providing storage.  All data would be encrypted, preferably client-side, before being uploaded to the network. We believe that Storj should simply be a mechanism for users to store their data, and the end user should have control over their data and privacy.

    Web Nodes
    At the Texas Bitcoin Conference 2014 we debuted a proof of concept web node for Storj. We have since been refining that software. You may upload your files to these web nodes and after about 10 minutes your files become accessible network wide. This requires no central server. Any web node connects to the prototype blockchain and may upload and download files at very little cost. This software will be made available to early backers and supporters.

    New Cryptocurrency
    Most cryptocurrencies use their blockchain as a ledger for coin balances. We would also like to use the blockchain to store information about file integrity and storage locations using structured metadata. To this end we will be releasing details about a new cryptocurrency that allows us to accomplish this and get our network running immediately with the help of our web nodes. We will be including this new cryptocurrency as part of our crowdfunding model.

    Whitepapers
    Many of you are hungry for the technical details. We have received great technical and conceptual feedback from Maidsafe and BitAngels. We are in the process of rewriting out initial whitepaper and finalizing crowdfunding details and timeline.

    Special Thanks
    BitAngels, esp. David Johnston and Jeremy Kandah - For your continuing input and support.
    Jeff Garzik (jgarzik) - For technical and concept help.
    Gregory Maxwell (gmaxwell) - For the initial seed concept and discussion thread.
    Maidsafe, esp. David Irvine and Nick Lambert - Hackathon input, mentoring and continuing conceptual synergy.
    Mastercoin Foundation - hackathon support, input and mentoring.
    wow great job
