1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you in favor or against pools for private sales? on: April 11, 2018, 10:01:04 PM
I think its a good idea to help the small fish get a piece of the good pie.
however with the current state of the market less and less ICO reach hard cap so the needs for pools diminishes. Lately pools are only good for getting higher bonuses if min investment is too high. A good project for this is Ocean pool
2  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin rebound in Q2 2018? on: April 10, 2018, 11:30:31 AM
My friends and I have the opposite view.
I think bitcoin will soon reach $15,000.

We would all love to see this happen, this past few months have been quiet frustrating. So many times it seemed like its bouncing back and then went back down again.
Right now it feels like bitcoin needs a lot of love in order to reach that $15k again.

I am just waiting and hoping all the hopers are right the market will recover. I'm currently not in a huge loss, I think like 10-15% but I do regret not withdrawing at least what I invested in January when market boomed.
As of buying more, I am currently avoiding it because I can't afford it but probably would otherwise.

Well lately almost all coin prices dropped right after the ICO.
That is mostly because of the current state of the market but also airdrops and bounties play their part because people start dumping the coin as soon as it hits exchanges.
Zilliqa is the only coin that I'm following that came out on top after the ICO in 2018.
5  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how can bitcoin have a good impression if there are people like this!?? on: April 10, 2018, 06:56:14 AM
Scammers have been around long before Bitcoin. There were millions of scams before bitcoin came along so we can't blame it for this.
In this scam bitcoin was used because of its very useful features like anonymity and simplicity for transactions.
If people throw money at someone promising them profit its they own problem really.
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: please share your signature campaign. on: April 05, 2018, 12:56:54 PM
Check out bountyhive.io.
Its a platform designed for bounty hunters. its much more consistent and simpler then bounties on bitcointalk where users just spam one on top of the other. They have some of the best bounties and guarantee payment without stupid rules introduced in the middle of the campaign.
I'm currently participating in their Bitrust campaign that is currently in the first week and they only require 10 posts per week.
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KYC at end of bounty campaign on: April 05, 2018, 06:31:13 AM
I do understand why they do it, they want to stop people with multiple and fake accounts.
However I agree with you that they should announce this at the start because I personally would never participate in a bounty campaign if I knew there was KYC.
But because they all say that the rules can change during the campaign there is nothing you can do about it.
I have participated in 2 campaigns on bitcointalk where I got nothing or stopped during the campaign because some stupid rules came forth in the middle of the campaign so now I'm trying to only participate on bounties outside bitcointalk.
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Pantos.io | The First Multi-Blockchain Token System | made by Bitpanda on: April 04, 2018, 01:45:48 PM
I don't understand what you people are expecting really... Just open their website it says clearly that this is a research project which means that what they are trying to do hasn't been done yet. If you are investing in them, its because if they can make Token Atomic Swap Technology a reality it could be a major breakthrough and potentially worth a lot of money.
And before anyone says that atomic swaps have already been done (yes they have) read their whitepaper, its not the same.

https://medium.com/pantos/pantos-io-by-bitpanda-the-first-multi-blockchain-token-system-c064860a8cc8

Into this update they already explained about that Token Atomic Swap technology this is an research project at this stage and this technology is not exists right now. I hope so in future they will get succeed to launched this platform successfully which will be great achievement for all early investors.

They are calling it Token Atomic Swap Technology (TAST) which is kind of confusing because its not really an atomic swap..
An atomic swap is when you change one cryptocurrency to another cryptocurrency without any trusted third party (usually an exchange). For example if you have 1 bitcoin you make an atomic swap to Litecoin getting with approximately 100 Litecoin. There have been some successful tests already done.
However TAST is the transfer of the same (in this case PAN) token from one blockchain to another. This is what Pantos is researching.

10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think regulation in the crypto world is necessary? on: April 04, 2018, 06:00:14 AM
Well if someday you want to buy anything anytime with bitcoin or any other crypto currency then some kind of regulations a must otherwise it just opens up so many theft opportunities.
For now I believe ICOs are the ones that have to be regulated as soon as possible because they are full of scams and shit coins.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Market is GREEN - Do you trust it on: April 03, 2018, 01:22:50 PM
Do you think the market will stay green or turn red?

It not an easy call

I say green

Nobody knows for sure, anything can happen really... Everyone hopes for green so everyone says green but that is mostly wishful thinking.
If you want to believe in market trends then a rise is incoming however at this point you can never know, with just a little FUD people get scared and everything is down 10%.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are there still hope for the altcoins on: April 03, 2018, 08:05:43 AM
Just because the market is suffering doesn't mean that alt coins are dying... This things have and will always happen. I wont tell you to hodl but always only invest what you are willing to lose and if you believe in a coin then stick to it.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO soft cap on: March 27, 2018, 01:09:25 PM
It really depends on the complexity and requirements of the project... if you are just creating some software and only need a couple of developers and advisors then you definitely need a lot less then if you are building self driving cars for example.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Market Goes Down and Down on: March 27, 2018, 06:21:42 AM
2018 is the worst year for all crypto market. Looks like we are not at bottom right now.
Market looking for bottom and everyday we are falling down. Lets wait until we hit the bottom.

It really looks this way, everyone is saying how the market will start rising soon but all I see is hopeful people with not much of an idea what they are talking about... It is just impossible to predict this market. Maybe some great news will come out tomorrow and the market will go back up or it may be the other way around... One can never know.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best Current Airdrop List MARCH 2018 UPDATE 23/03/2018 on: March 26, 2018, 01:58:29 PM
I only like airdrops that don't really require me to do much and don't ask for personal information.
One like this is https://pantos.io
The only requirement is to create an account on https://www.bitpanda.com and agree to the terms of the ICO.
I don't like to share personal information so I whenever they ask me for my facebook or twitter I just leave the airdrop.
If anyone knows of any more airdrops like this, please share Smiley
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you Invest in Great ICOs but Anonymous Team? on: March 26, 2018, 07:17:39 AM
I really value my anonymity, I don't invest in ICOs I believe in just because it has KYC... I completely understand if someone wants to stay anonymous but if you start a project and expect people to invest in your idea it just seems fishy to want to stay anonymous...
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons why ICOs fail on: March 26, 2018, 06:33:03 AM
In the past month I have heard of about 5 different companies (I work at 2 of those) that want to start an ICO without any original idea just because of all the hype around cryptocurrencies... This is in my opinion the biggest reason why most ICO have and eventually will fail, because they try to force blockchain products where there is no need for a blockchain...

19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do BTC and ALTS have a future - or is it a pipe dream on: March 23, 2018, 08:40:13 AM
BTC may easily die in the future but what you need to understand here is that blockchain as a technology definitely has a future. BTC is just a currency, if people decide they don't need or want it anymore its over.
ALTs are a little different, buying ALTs is like buying shares in a company. They are based on real projects and some of them (like 1%) are really good and they will survive.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Exchanges to avoid on: March 19, 2018, 10:38:15 AM
Maybe it's a good idea to create a list of shit-exchanges we should avoid. Boycott them to death.

1. Hitbtc, truely a shit-exchange where withdrawals can take weeks or even months. They also have no support team you can contact and charge deposit fees.
2. Cryptopia, deposits will take hours to appear into your account and withdrawals can take hours, weeks or months.
3. IDEX, not sure if this falls in the exchange category but this thing is fking slow. You can't withdrawal your tokens without having $50 worth of Eth.


You continue...

4. Etherdelta! You should avoid it because its really complex to use and you can easily make a mistake.
5. Exmo! Withdrawal of money hanging confirmations to the mail simply doesn't reach, support said most likely spam filter, suggested to change the registration mail and at the same time it requires more than a bank when registering a mortgage, the verification was two times on exmo.com and exmo.me

What the hell. HitBTC is not shit exchange.  Roll Eyes. Who said that they are taking time for withdrawals, you might be confused with something or you might withdrawing shit coins itself which are not having proper services at all. HitBTC is good exchanger and as far as im using it I am enjoying it a lot. Its user interface is also perfect for our use.

I can bet IDEX sucks because it is itself looking like heavy load on the earth. Rest of the exchangers are average one and I have no comments on them at all.

It took me once like a week to get BTC from hitBTC and i never went back. Also their withdrawal fee is enormous...
IDEX is not the best exchange but I have no bad experience with it.
