1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Liqui.io withdrawal fees? on: April 08, 2018, 07:31:53 PM
When DNT first came into this exchange I purchased some there and I was going to wd it to my own wallet so I could maybe store it on binance to use the mobile app so I could trade easier, however ran into a he same problem as you. I just converted to eth and then used the eth to buy on another exchange but it is time consuming. Also it’s not a bad idea to have money I. A lot of dif exchanges ready in case in case you need to buy something there in the future and you are ready.
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / BTCP and other upcoming privacy coins such as Loki on: April 04, 2018, 03:29:26 AM
Hey I have noticed a lot of new privacy coins many of them forks. COLX/PIVX, BTCP/BTC and ZCL, and Monero is having a fork that is called Loki. I know these have their own attributes but I’m not necessarily familiar with them technically speaking. What differentiates these coins from one another?
3  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: What is HardFork, SoftFork? on: April 02, 2018, 03:10:22 PM
So what would be the practical implications of a soft fork then. I know when tokens or coins that i have held forked in the past i generally only hear them described as hard forks and one must have their funds in a wallet with access to the private keys. Now is this any different for the average holder during a soft fork?
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Bounties (Altcoins) / Re: [BOUNTY] SAPIEN NETWORK - Take Back Control Over Your Social Experience on: March 30, 2018, 12:00:13 AM
Hey I am pretty new to bounties and need to know if you need to fill something out to get the medium stake? I see that there are spreadsheets of people’s allocations for different social media and some have forms, however there is no form for the medium one. I have done what it said to do but don’t know exactly where to go from there. Thank you
5  Economy / Economics / Re: Inflation and Deflation of Price and Money Supply on: March 28, 2018, 09:36:06 AM
Much has been said, a lot of it in your post already. However i would just like to address the notion of Keynes, which you brought up. You know it is interesting, I have heard the quote "we are all Keynesians now" referring to monetary policy. Regardless of who is the Fed chair, and since it is a largely an autonomous organization the following is irrelevant but nonetheless no legislature or member of the executive branch opposes the fact that at any given time contractionary or expansionary monetary policy should be implemented (ok Ron Paul, you got me). Back to my original line of thought. I feel a lot about Keynes is misunderstood. You may still oppose it of course, but the second part of the theory that is never talked about and it is precisely why we rely on monetary policy now and not as much fiscal, because politicians are to heavily obsessed with constituents short term feelings  to make tough decisions. It should work (in theory of course) as such, during times of economic recession we are worried about one half of the dual mandate of the federal reserve and that is unemployment, so we increase the money supply increasing demand. The money supply is increased by purchasing government bonds. Now there is more cash in the economy (most of this is technically digitized today) and less bonds. This however increases inflation but decreases unemployment. Now what we have been doing is quantitative easing, which has become a buzz word that I am sure you are familiar with. Also just to note I am not saying you do not understand this just people in general. QE is simply continuing to increase money supply via the purchasing of bonds when interest rates are already at zero. Now Keynes would also allow for fiscal policy ie. government spending which we just saw a lot of lol. You see the problem however comes in when one must implement the second half of Keynesian economics, which its critics do not ever talk about. If you do not like the model, that is fine just represent the theory in a fair way. The aforementioned second half consists of the contractionary part once the economy begins to recover. On the fiscal side it would go as follows. Now that the unemployment rate is down and gdp is up, we spend less and tax more. This is supposed to offset the deficit we incurred when the economy was in the proverbial shitter. We had raised large deficits when the economy was in recession by implementing large spending bills and large tax cuts. Also its usually conservatives who batter his theory and are they not pro tax cuts. Now you balance this out next by cutting spending and increasing taxes. The problem on the fiscal side is the politicians never want to cut spending and increase taxes when the time comes due. On the monetary side we just recently started the second half of Keynes. Now the fed is worried about inflation, not unemployment and gdp, so they decrease the money supply by selling bonds. Now that they have sold bonds, there is less money in the economy. Listen i have a huge problem in a democracy with the federal reserve having so much power that is not beholden to the people directly, but the theory behind the federal reserve is not dissimilar to that of appointed judgeships. They do not want to have to pander to ignorant voters. I have been involved in crypto for a while. Also it may be noted that im largely a libertarian on most issues. I think the drug war is the single most damaging contemporary policy to mankind. I am not im staunch opposition to central banks like most libertarians and remember i run in these circles and i know the arguments well, at the same time I would never patronize you or anyone else. I understand the criticisms, however in the echo chamber of crypto with its screams for decentralization, the other side of the argument becomes lost to group think. Portugal, Italy, Greece and Spain all lack one thing the ability to control their own money supply through a central bank. This can not be overlooked. The single most detrimental aspect to the individual notions in the Eurozone is the lake of monetary autonomy. Just food for though. I really enjoyed your post.

Listen this will probably get deleted, but i will give it a shot. I have been in crypto for years, but i suffer from social anxiety and despise any type of social media. Although its not in person even having a facebook page for example creeps me out. I have thereby not ever had any incentive to become involved in forums either. I recently wanted to be involved in the deeponion community and their airdrops, so i made a an account on here and there forum as well. I also created my first reddit profile. Now, the censorship on here as well as the others is outrageous to me. It goes against the ethos of free speech, is inherently totalitarian in its nature, and brings force the inner arrogance of some people wishing to feel superior to others. I feel as if I am stuck in an absurd catch-22. I cant post because i don't have enough history. I do not have history because i have not posted. Or i am just not deemed worth enough in my prose or content grace the forum. I can not even enter airdrop it looks like until i am of a certain level. I literally replied awesome after someone answered my question on here and it was deleted.
7  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Forum moderation policy on: March 18, 2018, 07:09:40 PM
  Listen I'm not much of a social media (or forums) guy, but I've been involved with crypto for around a year now and its not necessarily this website but most definitely reddit that makes my stomach churn. This arrogant sentiment is on bitcointalk as well. How about the fact that i cant even message anything on the crypto reddit threads because I don't have enough Karma and so-forth. Even if one does get a post or comment past the totalitarian moderators with their despotic inclinations and impulses that could rival even current North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, the next step will be confronting the conceited rhetoric espoused by some lowlife in the comment section who has no time for someone who understands less than he does. This is nothing more that a catch 22. I don't have i certain level of respect within the community because i am not of a certain level, but i cannot get that respect and post because i don't meet their standards. What a joke. I cant even get airdrops because i am not deemed worthy enough.
