Good news from Chris but hard to understand why price dump so much, look like Visa not confirm about this news, and Monaco post like a rumor.
I lost 40% my balance for this coin. Dump or hold - i choose hold and wait, wait until lose all.

hold, just a panic sale by noobs that don't understand the update.  Cool

The update was that the asset contract function has been removed, and nothing has replaced it.

Oh and also visa, which was promised for months Smiley

Is any pool out there doing better than Suprnova? My 5 Zen a day dropped to 3 and now to 1.25, given that I have $9000 in gpu mining I find that a little low.


Zen has gone up in value significantly, so more people are mining it, so the difficulty goes up. It's pretty much that easy! The good thing is you're not getting less 'money' as such, since the value of the coin has gone up, and your earlier mining of zen at lower difficulties has worked out really well!

1323  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ANN [MCO] MONACO #1 Cryptocurrency Payments Card on: November 01, 2017, 12:17:18 AM
They need to add something to the 'value' of MCO. Many people (myself included) were attracted to the value created for MCO from holding a small portion of every purchase in an account where you could burn your MCO for a portion of the total.

Without that (or something similar), why would you need any more than, say, 50 MCO to get your card and that's it?

To run such an ambitious scheme I'm guessing they need more funding and income streams so also worried that token value will be whittled down over time through venture capital deals. Really not sure anymore where MCO will end up!

Still excited to get a card though, just glad I'm not holding huge bags at this stage!

Looks great guys! If I join the signature campaign and increase in rank during this time (from member, to full member) will the increased stakes apply from the date I become full member? Do I need to 'do anything' to highlight that I've changed to full member for the purposes of counting stakes?
1325  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ZEN vs Hush on: October 31, 2017, 05:14:26 AM
The recent price increase will allow more value to be put into the development of zencash. This will lead to a more rapid improvement coming up.

I think this is a good point. As the developers get a portion of every block mined, more funding can be put towards development, which should in turn improve price and utility and so on it keeps going.

Other coins have a premine that is relied on rather than an ongoing income stream that encourages steady development and improvements.
1326  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ETHLend - Decentralized Lending on Ethereum Network on: October 31, 2017, 05:07:33 AM
Great looking project!

How does Ethlend differ from something like SALT? Are they a competitor to you doing same/similar things. What will you be doing differently. They have a bit of a head start on you so interested in how you'll get ahead Smiley
1327  Economy / Goods / Re: Will racks and frames for GPU mining be in demand? on: October 31, 2017, 04:34:54 AM
I think there would be demand for the right price. I currently have a milk crate mining rig (saw it built on youtube) which does the job pretty well, but the spacing between GPU's could be better and cable management is a bit all over the place. Most on ebay are over $100 bucks - that's way too much in my opinion for what is sometimes just a wooden frame of five pieces!

The only way I'd spend that much (maybe) is if it was a perfectly spaced tight unit you could carry around that tidies up cables as well. Would also need cheap shipping (possibly something easy to assemble and can be flat packed).

An example of the kind of frame that would get my attention is this one:

So tidy and portable!


1328  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin rise to $500k in three years? on: October 31, 2017, 04:27:31 AM
No - there are too many other coins that should pull some of the investment away from bitcoin, particularly since it is outdated technology and relies more incumbency.

If I'm wrong, so be it - if bitcoin reaches that 500k then they'll be more than a few coins carried along with it and I'll hopefully be in some of those!
1329  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wallets for altcoins on: October 31, 2017, 03:55:39 AM
I'm using MyetherWallet. A good friend advised, and it is difficult to pick up a key to him in the case of a 32-character hack attempt

Yeah, it very simple and useful in my case, but everybody should save the backup file or key carefully because if they lost, no hope to get money back  Wink

So for ERC20 tokens that are new (so the kind you get from ICOs, bounties etc) you would recommend myetherwallet? Its what I'm using but interested in if there are any others out there - myetherwallet feels more like a webpage than a program with a wallet but hey, if it works.

Arizen wallet looks great I'll install later. Just confirming that even though you have a password, the requirement is still that you use the same computer/hdd and backup the wallet on a secure hdd or usb.

So for example, you couldn't use your username and password to access your wallet through an arizen on a different computer, unless you had the backup file (because as you've said, they are locally stored accounts).

Also, I'm assuming any backups of previous wallets (like Swing) would need to be deleted to keep the password protection with Arizen, so that these backups can't be used to 'get around' the password protection should the backup be compromised.

Great coin. I will be mining and accumulating.

Great! Can you give an update on how much you mine in a day, and what GPU's you're using and how many.

Busy at work so won't be able to set it all up until later in the week - but I'll report back what kind of hashes I'm getting and how many pirl per day when I do.
1332  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ZEN vs Hush on: October 30, 2017, 06:34:48 AM
Zen should have an interesting few months - secure nodes on the way, website/logo redesign and traction from bitcoin bloggers and the like.

Also zen is accepted at a few merchants so that should help with getting attention. Also if you check their website they have plenty of engagement with the community and post frequent updates. I'd back zen.
1333  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: why myetherwallet security not strong on: October 30, 2017, 05:08:16 AM
Does anyone have a suggestion for a wallet that is good for erc20 tokens that are less well known? So good thing about myetherwallet is you can include token codes (so for ICO's etc) that are less well known and use the wallet to receive these tokens.

Other wallets are more user friendly and may be more secure (like exodus is user friendly for example), but all the extra 'new' or less well known tokens are not 'viewable' through these wallets.

Hey guys how much pirl is everyone getting for normal GPU mining?

So for example, if you have one gtx 1060 or 1070, how many pirls would you get per day. Are there any calculators or difficulty charts available - can't seem to find any and whattomine doesn't seem to have the dagger algo.
1335  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin Gold Mining on: October 30, 2017, 02:21:12 AM
Honestly if their main selling feature is that it is 'asic proof' then really it needs to do more.

You want asic proof? Try vertcoin, pretty much any equihash coin like zcash, even ethereum which will likely go POS next year before asics become a problem.

I'm really not sure of the long game for bitcoin gold. My guess is that their main hope is that the 'free' bitcoin gold people got from having regular bitcoin is to try and get people hyped for it and use it, even though there is already bitcoin cash and a bunch of other altcoins that are asic resistant. Also they are probably hoping the name 'bitcoin' will help keep it relevant.

But hey, I could be wrong, we'll see.
1336  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Zcash - Nvidia 1080 TI on: October 29, 2017, 06:53:07 AM
Hello,

I am a noob in mining, but still got my rig of 16 gpus nvidia 1080 Ti. Currently mining in flypool, using ebwf miner;     Each gpu overlocked (didn`t press to max) from 662 to 675 Sols/s;
Currently mining of amount of only 4+ Z / monthly, which I think is pretty bad IF to count ROI and prices of Nvidia 1080 Ti... 

May be I don`t understand something about mining (as it is surely), but what should I do to increase the amount of Zcash mined monthly? May be someone advice to mine some other alts with my current Rig? At the monet difficulty is pretty big in Flypool  for Zcash at least...

Also should I sell my Z / trade to btc or keep and wait price to go up, what tactics mainly you guys use?

Thanks for advices, all apprechiated   Roll Eyes



That is a lot of 1080 TIs! You could try mining other equihash coins since you're using NVidia - this could include zclassic, zencash, zcoin or even some bitcoin fork like bitcoin gold.

For example, if you mined zencash a few weeks back when it was only 7 usd with lower difficulty, you'd be feeling pretty great since it jumped to over 20 usd (but now is more difficult to mine).






1337  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Identify a fraudulent project? on: October 29, 2017, 03:59:04 AM
Some of the more straightforward ways to identify frauds or dodgy coins...

No working product. Bad looking whitepaper. No details provided on developers or their experience. Website looks cookie cutter. Over promise with no basis - like I've seen a coin say they'll be worth 'over one dollar in less than a month' because of xyz reason, and they are selling it to you for the cheap price of 25cents.

Now sometimes they'll be diamonds in the rough where it looks a bit ordinary, but the idea actually has merit. Its hard to identify these sometimes. One way is to see if a big exchange endorses the coin early, and then it should usually be ok.

Anyway good luck! Best to start with small amounts to invest and take it from there.
1338  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ANN [MCO] MONACO #1 Cryptocurrency Payments Card on: October 29, 2017, 03:50:25 AM
when is presentation?
presentation of what?Mco card?we all are still waiting.Hopefully in November

I hope they will not delayed again and as soon as possible they can announced big news about mco card with clearly, so investors will not disappointed. I hope team will do better than before

Delays are normal, but I think some people just felt it was a case of 'over promise under deliver' - much better to aim for the other way round!

Anyway, I don't think anyone should be too phased. Just wait for the announcement and make a decision from there. A few more days or even a week really isn't going to make a difference. Definitely better to take a longer term view and see what is announced before throwing money at it or selling if it isn't what you expected.
1339  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: HOW TO EARN BOUNTIES on: October 27, 2017, 06:17:12 AM
Newbie here and trying my luck with some bounty programs though there are some conditions I don't fully agree with like share every post they make. When I monitored their page, it's like they are posting about 10+ times per day. That would be overload and might even hurt their campaign, I think.

A few campaigns let you sign up when you're junior member. It won't take long, just wait a couple weeks, post every now and then, and you'll get enough 'activity' points to start signing up to bounty and signature campaigns very soon.

You tend to get more shares or stakes in a bounty program as your contribution level goes up. Just be patient, look for programs you're interested in and go from there Smiley

Blocklancer blocklancer.net accepts JR. members for the sig campaign.

Yay go blocklancer! I like that you can track your progress on their website in terms of stake percentage etc. Also gives you an idea of how their website/service will operate once they're up and running.

As you've said, the accept junior members so will probably get quite a range of interest from users Smiley
