Since the merit system is introduced in the forum, everyone is complaining about someone getting merit points for none deserving posts & someone not getting merit points for deserving posts. If the main motive of this forum is to introduce quality in the forum then they have to ban multiple accounts rather than giving a merit system from one peer to another peer. If these things can't happen, then they have to introduce a panel of experts who will give merit points to quality posts without any discrimination. This will introduce stability and people will actually work for the quality with proper power. What do you think??
The merit system needs to mature. The merit comes from the merit sources, so even if people at first merit underserving posts, it will eventually come to an end.

What are the best investment opetions for bitcoins to be put into? Please post here!
The best investment that you can do is the bitcoin investment. Bitcoin investment can be consider as long term investment. You can earn a lot of money by holding bitcoins. If you have a lot of patience, then you can become successful person. Oh, yep, the same old recipee that makes little sense. The best investment depends on your investment profile, and that means that you cannot just say that bitcoin is the best for everyone.

With the flurry of new ICOs, some of them r bound to fail. DYOR, if the team is good with good advisers, they wouldn't want the project to fail because it would tarnish their reputation. But no doubt - the higher the risk, the higher the reward.
Everyone talks about DYOR but the fact is that the average investor puts no more than 1000 USD into any ICO so they canīt really waste much time to check properly.

You never know when a tread is really dead, but this one could potentially be the next most read one if the market keeps as lateral as it is now frankly. People are not attracted by mediocre results.

I heard about samsung trying to get into the mining world a few months ago. it is quite surprising even on some media to say that their smartphone gadgets can be used for mining. if indeed they seriously want to get into the miner's machine world I think samsung should make a different innovation in order not only to be a substitute
When Samsung is involved in the production of mining equipment, it is likely to be beneficial for miners. Because there will be strong competition between Bitman and Samsung that will cause the price of the equipment to fall and the beneficiary will be a miner. I think Samsung entering this market is very good because it will take away the dominance of Bitman. I am afraid that is only part of the equation. The benfit of mining under competitive conditions is very low and only based on the coin rising in value. Normally, mining is not profitable for the home miner.

So many people will be able to buy these powerful miners, the difficulty and the price of Bitcoin may rise too.
They may very well make it a restricted edition only for professionals and further contribute to the centralisation of the crypto world. It could be dangerous.

There are many bounties that really pays you more then enough your expectations. I have been a bounty participant of an ico spectre.io. Thats the best bounty i have ever joined. I wish yo get some more like these.
I agree and I am sorry I missed that one, I hope that goNetwork will eventually open the whitelisting process and launch the ICO as they have generate lost of expectation.

Many of children today that they can't go to schools just because of having a financial problem .Even though they want to go to school they don't have a choice but to stop and instead of going to school they making a way to find job for them to survive .
not all of the parents can send their child/children to school because of the financial problem.But if the person is determined or dedicated to go to school there are so many ways now adays to achieve his/her goal. There are many different circumstances that affect the education you can get, and the world is anything but a fair place. Sometimes all that can be done is advance a bit an leave something better for the next generation.

I am a newbie just trying to grow on this platform. Within a week of participating in altcoin bounties, 2 bounties I participated in have been reported as Scammers. I get a lot of reads on my articles and Social media pages. I cannot keep encouraging people to invest in these altcoins if they would eventually get scammed. How can new bounty hunters like myself differentiate between a genuine bounty and scammers bounty?
Yep, that is the problem with joining a campaign: You are getting paid because they are using your reputation, so it is a risk you are taking. Solution: Donīt recommend thing just to get f*king paid for it.

I wonder. It looks like the people posting here don't have that much btc/cash/funds and are almost all small fish. One of the reasons is of course the bounty hunters. People with >100btc don't need bounties. People with >1000btc don't need this forum lol... So I wonder, all the fud, shilling etc here. Does it really have an impact on prices? I tend to believe we are all manipulated big time by real whales with 100's and 1000's of btc. If a group of eth hodlers of several 100k eth decide together: let's go down today, then we will go down. When prices are down enough they decide to go up. Thoughts? This pattern is the most obvious on reall small exchanges with bullshit coins. Look at some of them! You KNOW they are worth nothing and all of a sudden they moon and drop. You are making lotīs of assumptions here, firstly, donīt assume that people who have plenty of bitcoin are not in the forum. Second, whales can manipulate but manipulation has a cost and is not always profitable.

It is on itīs way. The ecosystem is much stronger and agile than the Bitcoin one. It think that either Ether or NEO are the next bitcoins out there.

There is not much you can do except to check the projects carefully. Normally, there are three problems: a) They donīt pay because its a scam. b) They donīt pay your stakes or they pay late. c) They pay, but it is not profitable
So you need to do all the checks to validate these points. A classic example, they say the token is worth 1$ and they pay 100 tokens, but the token is not worth even half.

like dehedge?
That would be one, yes. It is not exactly insurance for the masses, but it does allow the transfer o risk for a fee, so it would qualify.

On amazon you can find BTC coins replica. They look gorgeous, but i never bought one.
I am just struggling to understand what is a Bitcoin replica LOL, it is supposed to be an electronic coin, so you probably mean bitcoin logos or something like that

Well you could have a look at the Bitcoin Core developers. Gavin Andresen would be another relevant figure. If you're looking for particularly early users, you could have a look at satoshi's post history and the other people that posted - people like Hal Finney, theymos, Gavin Andresen and Sirius were around at the time. Here is a list of 100 relevant figures. Thanks for the references. Observing the list, it seems that many figures were already relevant before bitcoin. I just canīt get used to see McAfee everywhere LOL

Nope, getting advice from friends who are into this Crypto world will guarantee your success (60% success), don't push too much on your self-thinking if this coin has future, if this coin is real, if this coin has a chance, if this coin bla bla bla... get some advice first!
Well, I am glad you have friends that are better informed than mine, because as far as I am concerned, mine have plenty of info on the latest brands of beer, but not much more.

sMerit reduction for red trust seems like a ridiculous proposed solution from my point of view - since the merit system and the trust system are separate, and bringing in some kind of reduction of sMerit formula for red trust would likely cause more problems than it solves in terms of adding complexity and possible unintended bad player gaming consequences.
Both merit and trust systems can be abused as time goes on, abusements have been demonstrated by proofs. Nevertheless, I totally agree with JayJuanGee, those two systems should operated separately because they have very different original objectives in the forum. No need to combine them into one system. Probably the best control is to apply some red trust in cases that are clear abuses. For cases that are not that clear... well then they wonīt harm the system much, would they?

That is very true government want to ban all crypto currencies, But at some point they want to implement a law by putting tax on it i think the effect of that it may lead to corruption and the privacy of every users will be affected the decentralized form will change because government want to take control.
I am also afraid that many countries will include draconian laws, but others wonīt. The world wonīt change and we will loose another opportunity to make it more fair.

- You would be ignoring the real trend in crypto (see the dominance graph). Do you notice that Bitcoin is no more than 36% of the total value?
Which is completely irrelevant on a forum called Bitcointalk. If a community is about something specific, it doesn't matter how much or little popularity that thing has. A name does not define an immutable vision. You do have a main section in the forum to talk about Bitcoin, so that purpose is achieved. My point is that the Bitcoin community in fact is linked to the Altcoin community, even if some people may not like it. Opening is productive and I am suggesting a way of making it even better (IMO).
