I understand that the purpose of the offsite balance was not accumulating too many CLAMS insite. However, seeing that there's a circulating supply of 2 631 279 clams ( https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/clams/), and a theoretical bankroll of 13 852 378 (200 times the current max profit), 5.64 times bigger, it's evident the offsite function isn't being employed as intended. Investors are forced to use a multiplier as big as the rest of investors, so their position isn't deluted. But by doing that, she's lying, like the majority of other investors. ... Dooglus should just remove the /offsite feature. It has been used like you describe it (all people have to lie about their holdings in order to not get diluted) since the introduction of this feature. |

....Does anyone have any updates? ...
Why would they make an update or another annoucement? The decision to withdraw from the US market was pretty unambiguous. The reason why they gave the US customers a 90 day notice (instead of closing down without notice), is because many had funds "trapped" in active lending, which couldn´t have been withdrawn immediately. |

I can definitely access it with a VPN. They are updating the front page with new sports matches everyday and they have users online according to their counter, which constantly changes.
I can access the site now even without a VPN. Nonetheless, the loading time of the site is ridiculous and therefore I strongly suspect that they are still subject to a DDoS attack. Let´s hope they manage to sort these issues out. |

I have my doubts that the younger generation is invested in cryptocurrencies due to the reason that
it represents a genuine alternative to the old system. Most people are in it for the gains and the potential
to make a quick buck or to multiply their (often very small) investment in speculative endeavors
like ICOs.
No, I disagree. Young people are inherently open to new ideas; they are psychologically inclined to do so (because they themselves are new, young people often reject old things in favour of the new subconsciously), and their minds are typically more flexible to learn and accept new concepts also. Sure there are speculators amongst the young too, but they're far more likely to get involved with Bitcoin ideologically than the old. I agree that young people have more flexible minds. However, you have to see that many young people didn´t show any interest in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies when it was trading for 100 $ in 2013 and just entered the scene when mainstream media started reporting the huge BTC price gains. Bitcoin was already a brilliant alternative to the traditional financial system in 2009-2016. The technology hasn´t even changed that much apart from a few minor tweaks like Segwit. |

The question of the majority chain will likely be decided by the exchanges,
which control the desired BTC ticker symbol.
Whichever fork gets the symbol will win out in the end.
Personally, I intend to hold both coins if both chains survive.
This should maximize the potential return, because even the losing
chain in the long run will most likely experience a huge pump
by the supporters/backers with deep pockets in the short-term.

I want to know also how fast its supply is increasing. It may also affect the price much last time I looked at its supply it was 27 billion, now 29 billion.
https://forum.sia.tech/topic/161/about-siacoins-calculation-and-supplyIn July of 2020 (3 years from now) there will be roughly 44 billion Siacoin. At the moment the outstanding supply is roughly 29 billion Siacoin. You can check this for yourself at: http://explore.sia.tech/After 2020 the annual new supply will be roughly 1.5 billion per year, which is a rather low inflation. |

ETH is taking the cake again this week. https://www.coindesk.com/raiden-ico-ethereum-scaling-solution-launch-publicly-traded-token/Even protocol improvements that improve the possibility that Ethereum will ever be used on a larger scale are taking advantage of the current ICO frenzy in order to dupe investors. I would be much more confident if people were working on scaling solutions for technological or ideological reasons instead of the desire for financial gains. |

... The younger generation are more aware of the power of information and it's power than ever before, so it's no surprise that they're leading the way in embracing cryptocurrency as a genuine alternative to the old system. And fortunately, reality has it such that new young people just keep appearing, whereas old people have a habit of eventually disappearing, never to be seen again  I think cryptocurrency blockchains, and their properties and effects, will win out in the end. I have my doubts that the younger generation is invested in cryptocurrencies due to the reason that it represents a genuine alternative to the old system. Most people are in it for the gains and the potential to make a quick buck or to multiply their (often very small) investment in speculative endeavors like ICOs. I concede that your view may be true for people that have been holding through bear cycles, but many people, who entered in 2017 are simply invested for speculative purposes. |

The site is still down. I can only access it through a VPN. I can't make withdrawals. No one has responded to my email I sent over 24 hours ago. Can you give us updates about the situation and answer emails?
Are you sure you can access it with a VPN? According to Cloudflare the problem is with BetBTC and not with Cloudflare. Therefore I find it highly unlikely that you are able to access the website with a VPN, if the server is down. Maybe they have temporarily taken BetBTC offline in order to enhance the protection against DDoS attacks? |

1. People that are upset that anyone can or would know more than them about investing and as such, degrade people without so much as a sliver of justification. I LOL at the "these coins are all shit!!...but I do like number 2 and 4." Comments like that are hilarious. If someone disagrees, great! Then I would advocate for some sort of justification in the disagreement, sans an intelligent retort, I would not put much stock into the "haters" As you'll see, the bulk of people on all my threads either a) agree b) have already invested or plan too in these c) respect the opinion I give.

You have to be aware that many of the people, who make posts like this, are doing it in order to increase their postcount, which enhances their earnings from signature campaigns. Due to the current BTC price it is possible to earn a multiple of the average wage in poorer countries simply by posting on Bitcointalk. If you browse Bitcointalk with the above knowledge, you will be less surprised about these posts. |

You have Kraken wich is from EU, korbit in Korea which has been developing all the options in English to be understandable due to the amount of anglo speakers.
Kraken is not from the EU. They are based in San Francisco! However, I concede that they are one of the main exchanges in terms of Euro trading volume of cryptocurrencies. Besides, they have bank accounts in Europe, which enables users to deposit fast within all countries that use SEPA. |

Waiting now for the 1st Oct. Countdown begins 10 days to go. Will keep a watch for the upcoming news and promos. Hope to make some gains this time in Poker with this bitcoin brand of yours. Your promo part is keep us on the edge of the seat. Wishing the team good luck.
You can already find the promotions in the opening post. Freerolls, a small credit to try out the site for beta-users, up to 50 % rakeback and many other stuff. Additionally, I really like the way the operators set up the rake structure for Ultimatebit. Heads-up table rake of 2 % will be a really great catalyst for amazing games! |

Ach so, ich glaub nun verstehe ich das. Wenn ich z.B. 25% Einkommensteuer zahle ... dann zahle ich auf alle meine Krypto-Gewinne auch 25%? Irgendwie erscheint mir das alles ein wenig seltsam, das hier der Einkommensteuersatz angesetzt werden. Aber gut, wenn das so ist.
Ja, genau. Außer du hältst die Kryptowährung über ein Jahr, dann zahlst du gar keine Steuern (mit der Ausnahme, wenn du gewerblich handelst, da das dann nicht mehr als privates Veräußerungsgeschäft gilt). Eigentlich musst du dir nur die folgende Unterscheidung merken: Kapitalerträge (z.B. Zinsgewinne bei einem Sparbuch oder eine Dividendenzahlung bei einer Aktie) = Kapitalertragsteuer + Soli + evtl. Kirchensteuer Private Veräußerungsgeschäfte (z.B. Bitcoinhandel mit Haltefrist von unter einem Jahr, Edelmetall, Briefmarken) = persönlicher Steuersatz sobald Freigrenze von 600 € überschritten ist |

The Monthly Report article also investigates whether DLT has any potential uses in the settlement of securities. Compared to payments, traditional settlement operations involve a far greater number and variety of intermediaries. These include securities traders, exchanges and clearing houses.
...
They concede, however, that it is still unclear whether DLT also has the edge over today’s technology in terms of security, efficiency, costs and speed.
This is a completely ridiculous conclusion of the researchers. It is self-evident that a blockchain-based solution for the settlement of securities is much faster and much more secure than having the current system with multiple points of failure and a centralized infrastructure. A natural catastrophe or a bomb attack on one of the major financial hubs (e.g. London) on the planet and security settlement would probably be stopped immediately. This would never happen with a decentralized blockchain-based solution. |

I'm having a hard time understanding why Core doesn't want 2x. Does a somewhat larger block size really matter than much? What I really wanted was Segwit, I don't care about Jihan's worthless BCH scam coin. Once we have the Lightning Network, it can increase scalability for mass adoption. But if the blocks are currently full, then why do we have to wait for LN? Why not settle for 2x as a short term solution at the moment?
It is unclear how many users would use a 2nd layer solution like the Lightning network. Some people are actually not interested in LN transactions, because they are forced to trust a 3rd party when they use a payment channel. This is diametrically opposed to the reason why many people got into Bitcoin in the first place. However, this is probably only a minority of Bitcoin fundamentalists and the average user will be completely fine with 2nd layer solutions if they are cheaper and faster - which they will probably be. |

Aengus is doing market research in advance of the upcoming Primedice / Stake ICO  I´d estimate that both sites together would easily raise +20 million $, if they also accept ETH and not only BTC. The only BTC gambling sites that would raise more than Primedice and Stake are probably the big betting sites like Nitrogensports. |

I've heard some negative feedback regarding the speed of their support system, and sometimes deposits and withdrawals can be delayed. But apart from that, they are a licensed exchange in Britain i believe(definitely in Europe though) so there is little risk of them scamming you.
It's not going to be the fastest process to deposit and get coins. Bank transfers can take a few days to hit your account.
However, once it does the spreads on the site are among the lowest in the industry.
Bitstamp is licensed in Luxemburg according to the Bitstamp front page. The main bank account of them is based in Slovenia. SEPA deposits usually take only one day and the trading engine works pretty well. |

Has anybody been able to find out, who exactly are the developers
and backers of this Ethereum fork?
The official website linked in the article is down currently and the
only result that I could find using Google was the linked
themerkle article.
I´m very skeptical of this fork at the moment, but depending
on the exact details it could be useful for speculation purposes (or provide
free money for all Ethereum holders, if people get ETH on
both chains).

I don´t know if this is the right thread for it, but I have a suggestion.
Have you considered adding a USDT/EUR trading pair (you already have USDT/USD)?
If I want to buy USDT I now have to make 3 trades, because I deposit in €.
Afterwards I have to buy Bitcoin with my Euro and sell the BTC for $ in order to finally
be able to buy USDT.
If you would have a USDT/EUR trading pair I would be able to buy USDT with
a single trade instead of having to do the 3 trades I mentioned above.
Thank you for considering my feature request!

I've used them in the past without issue but I'm not sure id do it again. That's not because they're dodgy but their kyc questions are ridiculously invasive and they rescind verification and ask for more if you go over unknown limits.
I'm buggered if I'm getting tied up in their secret policies.
Their KYC questions are indeed quite invasive. However, in my experience you can get away with rather vague and ambiguous answers and still get through the verification. It´s probable that they do not really care for the details they ask for, but rather want to have plausible deniability in the case of government investigations into a Bitstamp client. All in all, Bitstamp is the best of all exchanges in my opinion. The big downside is that they don´t offer Margin trading. |
