1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The number one cryptocurrency on: December 23, 2018, 12:02:50 AM
Hey guys,
I am quite interested in your opinion about Bitcoin losing its number one spot in the crypto world because I have recently thought about that myself. Do you think this will ever happen or do you rather think Bitcoin will always be the number one?

Which altcoins do you think have at least enough potential to take over the lead in order to become the new number one at some point in the future?
To find out I have listed the current top 20 coins and you are allowed to choose five of them. If you choose the option 20 "Another altcoin (already existing)" please let us know which altcoin you think about. Besides feel free to discuss, of course.

XRP, ETH, BCSV, EOS and ADA is my choice for the 5 best cryptocurrencies in the next year 2019. But I think the Bitcoin will be the best cryptos in the market so that I think you should add to this list. And the next year 2019, a lot of new things will happen and make the market recover soon!

What do you think of Bitcoin Cash? I heard it is more useful as a currency.

Bitcoin is a good investment by holding it for a very long time to your money made a big profit but you will consider some altcoins in top 50 has a potential behind bitcoin to boost their value.

Sorry for your loss. Maybe the money you have loss will be back by holding your bitcoin until 2020.

It seems if you bought Bitcoin Cash when the price was below 0.1 Bitcoin, you have made good profits.

I dont think fiat will ever be worthless, per say.  I just think more and more people will be envious of all of us bag holders

Fiat will be only good for small amount payment in the future, or where there is no electricity.

I have to say that Polo is the best,
Volume trading in Polo is probably biggest.

I like Bittrex in the term of its management and confirmation.


The polo is much better than bittrex.

I think fiat will no be worthless if ever a bitcoin will rise at that rate. In the first place, bitcoin value is in fiat. Second, not all the time you have an internet connection to be able to process all your transactions. If it will be useless, many banks including world bank will be useless too. And world bank will not let that happen.

I think the internet will be universal in the future, so there is no need to be no negative.

When bitcoin price hits 10,000$, Perhaps we will not use traditional currency (cash).
Untill that time, we will be using smart devices to pay everything with bitcoin.

Even if bitcoin reaches a new ATH each month, fiat will still has value, it is not affected by bitcoins price increase. Fiat's value will only be gone when no one uses it and the country that owns it is not reproducing it anymore and put into circulation. That's the only time that fiat's value will start to drop.

But the value of the fiat will decrease faster when more people use the bitcoin.
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v9.2 on: December 21, 2016, 07:44:30 PM
This is my observation of version 9.2 :
Rx 480 - 235 h/s
Rx 470 - 220 h/s
R9 390 - 300 h/s
R9 290 - 260 h/s
R9 280x - 215 H/s
Also, I have noticed a slight decrease in temperature.
could you please tell me your clocks for the 390 im only getting around 250 with stock clocks and i6 but im having problems with 15.12 drivers in win 10 what drivers do u use thank you for any info or help

I have 4 390's underclocked at 975/1500 with power limit at -5 and hashing between 296-300. Crimson 16.11.5. Wink

That is quite fast.

I will release new version in 1-2 days. Not all cards will get speedup, but at least Hawaii and Polaris will.



Claymore say something Cheesy ?

I think it will be released in the next day also.

But I think the trend is now changing, as people are adopting bitcoin not only for investment purpose but now many people are using bitcoin as currency, they use bitcoin not only for online business and shopping but now there are so many places where bitcoin can be used for shopping like in local shops also.

No matter how many people adopts bitcoin or use it as a currency but it would still not be able to replace fiat, people all over the world have been using fiat for centuries, so even if they find something like bitcoin to be used they will still give importance to fiat so the price of bitcoin thus reaches too high but it wont make fiat worthless.
Sure fiat is at the control, the bitcoin transactions arent near to achieve 1% the fiat transactions, and this is something that wont change. The value of bitcoin wont make any effect over fiat besides the exchange from bitcoin to fiat.

That is because not many people know about the bitcoin and also the block size of the bitcoin is too small.

Yep, 7950 can do something like 110-120 H/s I guess

Actually the 7950/280x is by far the best card for zcash. They cost $80 and can do 180 h/s easily constantly.

This is without mods. 110=120hash was like version 5 man. Need download version 7 for 180hash

Yep, it's true: 175-180 h/s. And no mods, only overclocking (1180/1500 for me).
BUT, there is a downfall:
ETH mining, v 7.3 - 845W from the wall on 4x280x
ZEC mining, v 7.0 - 915W!!!



How in the world are you getting 180 h/s on a 7950. I have 4 different 7950's and they average 125-145 sols/s. Stock bios

The 7950 do 150sol/s but the 7970/280x can do 180sol/s easily.

I run my 7970 at 900/1250, they have about 140 H/s. If I overclock them, the hash rate can reach 180.
11  Economy / Economics / Re: If bitcoin price is $10.000, will fiat be worthless? on: October 25, 2016, 06:08:03 PM
I don't think that fiat will ever become worthless even price of bitcoin reaches to the moon as everyone is dependent on it for living and even if we have to use bitcoins we need to convert them to fiat first to spend them.

If bitcoin price reached $10,000 then definitely we can see a massive conversion of bitcoin into fiat.

Now if fiat is worthless when that day comes, then no one will convert and it's useless now for a dream price since all in all 1btc=1btc.
Bitcoin is all digital, Exactly.
That is why Fiat is never going to be worthless,
 It is really hard to buy food with bitcoin, especially if there is going to be a crisis etc.

Also fiat is controlled by the government, while bitcoin isn't.

And fiat can take care of physical transactions which is not present and never will be present in most of the places in the world.

Bitcoin needs internet to be used so what if in some cases, there is electricity problem in a certain place? How come they can do offline transaction in bitcoin if in the first place bitcoin is only meant for online transactions.

You are right. The fiat can survive a long time in places where there is no electricity and the internet.

To be honest, when it happens, there will be no FIAT money anymore. The government currency system will totally collapse and there will be a revolution of Cryptocurrency which is leaded by Bitcoin users. There will be no tax in the world and it will be much better when there is only one currency in the world: Bitcoin
That will never happen fiat will always show its presence even in future and till the time Government will have their control on a country fiat will always exist as Government will never allow any digital currency to replace their national currency.

Yes, fiat will not be rendered worthless as long as we have governments that collect taxes and print money at the very least. No government would allow bitcoin to become a full-scale replacement to their national currencies. To that end, some of them take a somewhat short-sighted approach and go as far putting a lid on its use within their jurisdictions.

And even if bitcoin gains more popularity and gets on the mainstream even though there would be many people who will prefer to use fiat as they find it easy and convenient to use.

Fiat is easy to use as it has the form of cash. You do not need a computer or electrical device to send momeny.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What is the average life of a mining rig? on: September 29, 2016, 06:37:43 AM
All the parts have life time in hours.

The fans have life time differing 15.000 hours to 36.000 hours.

The risers must be must be replaced, the life time is 500 days at average.

Motherboards lasts nearly 2 years.

The GPUs also have 2 years time if overclocked.

No problem with CPUs and/or rams so far.

The motherboard last more than 3 years in my case. The longest GPU lasted about 3 years too. They are still working well.

Poloniex is the best trading place so far, they have the better UI and more legitimate coins are listed on the site, therefore you can ensure that coins listed their will not just disappear and will do the pump and dump game.

thats right. if we want to trade altcoin, poloniex is the best a place to trading
there are many altcoin and volume is huge.

The volume of the Etheruem is the largest in Polonex, however, it was surpassed by the Monero in the last few weeks.
15  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Best trading places on: September 11, 2016, 08:42:42 AM
i just trade altcoin and for me poloniex, bittrex, c-cex, yobit is the best place to trading altcoin.
now im trade at c-cex and buying some $fch (fastcash) at 2500sat, hope price back to 7000sat

I mainly trade at poloniex, bittrex. They are both good. Some coins are having higher volume in one of the two exchanges.
16  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Best trading places on: August 27, 2016, 12:04:50 PM

i just traded altcoins on poloniex, there is leverage features at poloniex, and sometime i used cex.io for trading bitcoin to fiat because there are many method to make deposit who be supported by my country and it is safe for me.

I trade mainly in the Poloniex. It is an OK exchange. But it has too many scam coins there. I only trade good coins.
17  Economy / Speculation / Re: $10k???? on: July 27, 2016, 08:54:42 AM
It would be better for the bitcoin accepting website to offer some discounts. Their cost is lower than credit cards.

If these websites offer some discount, even that is just 5%, I will use more of them as it is good for bitcoin.
18  Economy / Speculation / Re: $10k???? on: July 11, 2016, 07:13:20 PM
10k is allot for the bitcoin i dont think he will hit that amount as you know there are allot of bitcoin users right know i think when the users of
the bitcoin are getting smaller it will be possible to get 10k each for a bitcoin for sure but for know it is just a dream that maybe can be true.

$10 is the price for 3 to 10 years. If there are not fundamental problems in bitcoin , the price will be higher soon.

$10,000 is possible in 10 years. I hope the bitcoin developers will work hard and not influenced by a small company.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: R9 Nano Modded Rom on: June 29, 2016, 04:12:40 PM

Anyhow, got a new rom, 1.5Mh speed increase per card for Ethereum at the same power usage Wink, in my case, that's 8Mh extra per rig which is a lot Wink

will release it soon!

Greetings!

Hi Eliovp,
How's the status on the new rom? Just wondering...

Is that a ROM for the R9 nano? This is very impressive.
20  Economy / Speculation / Re: $10k???? on: June 13, 2016, 08:33:40 AM
$10k is something a very big price when we think about most users expectations. Most users expect a price around $1500 to the max on halving. Now with recent increase continuing people have got some extra hope that price might touch $1500 but not at all $10k.
Yeah that price is too much to be expect $10k will take more years to be or we maybe just surprise these next years will be a more big price rise because of its uknown users and investors added everyday.

$1000 is the price for this year, $10,000 is the price for 3-5 years. It also dedends on the adoption and innovation.
