and what is the point exactly?
Is someone going to run with it and use it as a new alt? I am pretty happy that it is there, as I was holding ETH at the time of the fork, but I don't know if it is worth holding ETC or selling now for some free money.

was it not pointed out months ago that all you need to do if fill in a few forms, and Azure will add you?
It worked for pumping coins for a while, until people found out that it is essentially meaningless!

I traded poorly just before the last big bubble to the ATH.
This time I bought back in between $250-$300, have waited a year, so can sell without capital gains tax, but have no plans to sell.
I hold more now than I ever have before.
If you are in the US you still need to pay capital gains tax... I'm not  |

I have no problem with Steemit, except it is generally very boring articles/blogs that are rewarded if they are click bait.
Medium is much better, people write about different things, not just the price of STEEM and how much STEEM you can make in 1 hour!
Maybe it is just immature at the moment and will get better.

The answer today was Piggy!
You might get lucky trying to pick out a coin before it gets pumped, but the liquidity on these coins is really low, so if you try to buy a bitcoin of 2 of them, you will be sat on a paper loss of quite a lot immediately. If it gets pumped, then good for you, but if not, you will lose out. How many alts are you happy to hol, and for how long? I have sold coins that have been pumped hours later (e.g. quark, xcp) a few times, it really annoying!

Thinking of launching a new coin
Please don't. There are enough sh1tcoins around already, you don't have any novel ideas to add to the coins, so just don't! Even worse if you want to have an ICO, if you must, just start your sh1tcoin and mine it without telling people how to mine it. You will get the majority of the coins, and not steal money from people by way of an ICO. |

I know it was within the rules, as the code is the law, but how could banks and big businesses seriously look at using ETH, if a thief was allowed to walk off with millions of $ worth of coins, just because of the coding error?
ETH seems to want to go mainstream, that isn't very popular on Bitcointalk, but if it is to happen, they need to be able to fix major flaws, rather than just screwing over the little guy who has money stolen from them.
Let's face it, the main reason why the masses shouldn't use bitcoin is because there is too much chance that they will have it stolen from them, if that can be prevented or rectified somehow, then I think main stream use could be massively increased.

I was expecting a dump, I am quite surprised that nothing happened, but then I guess for 99% of bitcoin users, it makes no difference.
The miners will be feeling it already, so maybe they will stop selling what they mine until the price rises, or they will stop mining altogether, who knows.

name every coin you have launched/made/slimed over
If I sat down and made a list, I would honestly not be able to name all the coins I've been involved with at least to some extent. I've made a LOT of coins for other people If you guys list off coins you are curious about, I'll include a whole list with yes/no in the audio just the ones your mined the first block for Well that's not fair. Most people that pay me to make a coin for them don't know how to mine and need the premise done for them Not many As in this Q&A! |

SPT, the one that you pumped in the last altcoin boom in late 2013.

As many of you know, I'm leaving crypto very shortly. I have decided to burn as many bridges as possible since I do not care about the repercussions. I won't answer everything because of time constraints, but I'm putting together an audio version of the things I think people should know. Post below or PM me if you don't want it public and your question may be answered. I won't say who asked what, but if I think it's an interesting answer, I will include it. I already have quite the list, but I may shorten it if the stories don't come out that interesting If you talk shit, it's self-moderated, so it's just going to get deleted. This is your chance to have something you've wondered for a long time answered without fluff behind it What do you want to know?  Back in the day when Spots hit it's all time high and you heavily pumped it saying that was just a start and the price would definitely be going higher, did you actually believe that, or were you just pumping your shitcoin? |

Is removal of a multisig enough to give a $133million market cap?
I mean it is almost as big as LTC! It won't be in 1 month, I am 99% certain.

Messing up the soft fork does seem pretty amatuer hour.
I am amazed that so many people are happy to invest large amounts of money in something that is consistently being shown to be flawed and/or a scam.

Altcoins are almost completely unrelated to Brexit.
If the economy tanks, then Bitcoin could rise a lot. If things go well after Brexit, then the pound should rise. I don't see where alts are involved!
The economy will be different in the future, but that doesn't mean better or worse, just different.
That said, I sold my alts this morning as I wanted to be positioned in Bitcoin in case it rises big.

Stagnant for the last few hours!
Is that an oxymoron? It seems like it would have to stagnate for longer than a few hours to become stagnant! I still see some uncertainty ahead, Bitcoin's price should appreciate in the next few weeks.

The price would simply skyrocket, making it practically impossible to buy most coins.
About $ 300,000,000 worth of BTC is traded every day. ELI5 why it's impossible for a large player to snag enough coin to do what OP describes? Those coins are probably traded frequently, there will be millions of coins that never move and would be held regardless of price. The ultimate goal of buying all the Bitcoins would be stupid anyway, if they suceeded they would end up with a worthless personal coin, which people wouldn't mine anymore! |

I agree with your statement. Just consider bitcoin as the main invitation to the Crypto currencies.
Only thing is that 90% is utter garbage and the other 10% have not proven their mettle yet in terms of scaling.
We still have years left before any form of mass adoption.
I think 90% is very conservative. Do you count the hackable smart contracts as garbage? If so I would say 99% of Alts are garbage, with most of the others being unnecessary or useless. |

I find the recent price fall more worrying that the previous 'big digger' price fall.
This time there is no real reason for the fall, other than that people divesting. I have a bit of a safe haven theory, which would have CLAMs rising now that Bitcoin and the new alts are starting to fall, we will see but I think CLAM should get back to at least 0.002 in the near future, if only because there is no reason why it fell from 0.002 a few weeks ago!!

Patents can only be made on something that is not public knowledge.
If Satoshi had patented the idea before releasing Bitcoin, that would have worked (probably)
Years later it is stupid to talk about patents.
