1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How Verge's "partnership" tanked [-25%] on: April 18, 2018, 03:54:53 AM
announcing an 'announcement' never seems to fail to spark an empty pump. it doesn't matter what the news is it's always going to fall once the news is out. in this particular case it's a reasonable cut above the average junk most coins come out with, but it's still a sell the news event.

Good point. If they simply just didn't "announce the announcement" and suddenly popped up with a pornhub partnership one morning it would have been EPIC.

That being said, i believe that the Verge team made a good decision going with pornhub. It's one of the largest websites in the world and has the transaction volume and privacy needs worthy of cryptocurrency. It may take some time before people realize this, but in the end, Verge made a good move with this partnership.

But... Who pays for porn these days  Huh

Mindseek, or whatever it’s called, has over 100 million users
Even if they don’t all pay for porn, Verge will get some serious exposure as a crypto capable of being used as payment/currency.    And it already puts it ahead of something like Monero, for example

"It doesn't have a working product yet".

Aham...and Cardano?  Grin


Exactly!   If Cardano can be $30B, there’s no reason ICX can’t head that direction as well

Looks like a scam
Check out their token summary on etherscan - nothing makes sense.
It doesn’t show any tokens available in their balances
And there’s only 174 token holders with relatively small amounts, yet their status bar shows tons of tokens sold
Lots of red flags here

The ICO price was was 900 BRD to 1 ETH (around $0.81 based upon the ETH price at ICO time)
It also was able to be bought for 15 BRD to 1 BNB (which was equal to about $0.93 at the time of ICO)
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Zclassic - Bitcoin private - Why the hype? on: December 28, 2017, 04:09:41 AM
The thing is that people that hold 1 bitcoin will get 1 bitcoin private (one bitcoin is priced at about 15k usd)
And on the other side people that hold 1 zclassic will also get 1 bitcoin private (one zclassic is about 30 usd)

It means that you will get 500 BTCP (Bitcoin private) for 1btc worth of zclassic. (Instead of 1 BTCP from 1 BTC)

This is why people really want to buy zlassic now, i think we should be expecting another 10x from here.

Privacy is all the hype, so a privacy coin bitcoin fork ofcourse makes people excited.

Buying a coin just for the hype is a huge mistake, besides what it is the point of this coin, why bitcoin private is better than solutions especially geared towards privacy like monero and dash, bitcoin was never meant to be completely anonymous so I think this coin is moving in the wrong direction.

Hmm...  hype accounts for like 99% of the “value” of  coins today.    Do you think coins are gaining 100% or more on certain days because of fundamentals?    Of course not.   Front running the hype is one of the ways to profits in this current crypto speculation craze.
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Cryptopia / Missing ETH deposit on: December 08, 2017, 03:09:21 AM
I deposited ETH to my Cryptopia Wallet about 48 hours ago.   The deposit has 4,000 confirmations now but it has not been posted.

Anyone else having this issue with Cryptopia this week?

I opened two support tickets without a reply yet.

They did post on Twitter that there was some ETH congestion.   Which is true, but my transaction has been confirmed successfully for almost 2 days now.

Suggestions?    Better ways to contact Cryptopia?   Any Cryptopia mods that can help?
