Is the payout happening before the fork? Or are we heading for a 3 week round now?

There is no unclaimed territory left on earth. And claiming territory on Mars won't be possible for quite some time.

I've been spamming this quite heavily in this thread now, but that's mostly because nobody seems to be reading anything.

A drug free country does not exist and will never exist.

The use of drugs is a paramount aspect of human nature. Humans have been using drugs since long before any hint of modern civilization came into being. There is nothing wrong with taking drugs responsibly and there will always be people who will be compelled to try drugs, no matter how hard idiotic uninformed nonsense will try to demonize the use.
Nobody other than sheep and greedy warmongers and profiteers want "drug-free" countries. And most of the people I've just mentioned only pretend to fight for a drug-free world. Nobody who knows anything about drugs would ever propagate this war on drugs nonsense.

No country will ever be drug free. I'm an academic and I know a lot of very successful people who partake in recreational use of substances of all kinds without damaging their mental or physical health or private/public life.

The only reason drugs are banned are greed-driven propaganda and silly power games. The same people who ban drugs are the ones stuffing their bags and laundering money en masse while pretending to be some saviors of justice.

There are no positive sides. If you study developed nations and human history you will quickly come to understand that drugs can not be eradicated from human societies. They will always exist, and fighting them with violence is a despicable crime against all of humanity.

Hello!

I am interested in positions as a Global (English) and Local (German) thread manager.

You can refer to my posts to check for the quality of my contents, it should be pretty self-evident that my services would be constructive and at the absolute top quality-wise.

I would be happy to disclose some more private information (degree program, grades, past translations and proof-reading) via PM.


P.S. I am only interested in supporting ICOs that have a solid project. I will reserve the right to stay away from anything that seems fishy or like a "get rich quick" scheme for the founders.

I honestly don't think the volume invested matters too much when allocating a portfolio in cryptos. As long as you have a few hundred $ in BTC, it's best to keep a large chunk in BTC and spread out a smaller portion over a few alts. Exact numbers vary with an investor's risk profile, the more BTC you hold the "safer" the investment becomes since BTC is less volatile than altcoins. The more you have in alts the riskier, but the higher the potential returns.
Basically sit down with a pen and paper (or program something) to check what the maximum draw-down of your portfolio is going to be and adjust accordingly.

AiCoin is going to be profitable regardless of speculations, simply due to its nature.

Steemit is promising as well, look it up for sure.

Wings seems to be something like Waves I believe, I've seen it a lot but can't really comment on it.

EQT has been pretty stable regardless of the market situation and has a solid use-case proposal.


AiCoin is the most promising of all alts in my opinion though, since it already has a working product and a great model. It's quite likely to be profitably completely independent of the state of the markets. Also has a very solid team behind it.

Nobody knows that. It could very well be that by August 2 prices would have started climbing already. Not really possible to make a prediction right now.

There is no cookie-cutter way of determining good altcoin investments. I wouldn't follow popular coins either, although I would be more likely to check them out. In the end only one thing matters: Is the coin useful or not.

Happens to almost all people at least once in their lifetime. Just how human nature works I suppose.

I would never rely on a "lucky day". Even if it seems like you have found a way to predict a "lucky day", you will almost certainly lose in the long run by relying on it.

Agreed. The smartest way to gamble is to set limits and to enjoy yourself in the process without expecting any profits.

Blocklancer is the ICO, correct.

AiCoin is an ICO as well, but due to its structure it is highly improbable that it will trade below its ICO price. Anybody who would do that doesn't understand what AiCoin is about.

P.S. I've studied the legal and whitepaper extensively and AiCoin is basically an application of my field of study (Mathematical Statistics/ML), so I can give you a good idea of what the project is about. So if you've got any questions, shoot away.
(Would appreciate it if you used my referral if you decided to invest in it and if I could help you with getting a feeling for the project.)

Hey.

I've responded in your other thread, please go check my response over there.

You shouldn't go around posting the same thread all over the forum by the way, people don't really like that here.

Either way, welcome.

Science is based on evidence, not proof. People often conflate the two terms.

Science, for most people, is based on the belief that a lot of evidence means proof, and as such is no more than religion.

There are not many people who really understand science as what it is and as what it was intended to be... a tool for exploring and developing our reality.
Science in its very core can not provide proof of any kind and anybody who understands Statistics deeply enough know this. Unfortunately even a lot of scientists don't understand this, since they only study how to use Statistics, but not how it work.

In either case, science as used by the majority of people on this planet is no different from a religion.

I'd park some money in AiCoin and perhaps Blocklancer as well.

AiCoin is the most promising fresh investment opportunity that I've found in crypto so far (reliable and strong expected returns).

Blocklancer could easily pop off massively, but this one is a longer term investment.

I would be quite surprised if Governments weren't taking Bitcoin & co seriously already. It's just that rolling out policies is an extremely inefficient and slow process. It'll probably be too late for governments to intervene in any meaningful way by the time they're actually ready to do so, lol...

A lot of countries offer pizza (etc) delivery for Bitcoins these days. So that's a good way to get started with actually using Bitcoins. It gives you an idea of how to use them and shows a new user that Bitcoins can indeed be useful in every-day life.
Of course, learning how to invest in a way that avoids risk is the best thing one can do. Not just in crypto-markets either, but in general. Investing is the easiest way to build up a substantial amount of wealth. Even with stock market investments, a modest average salary can create millionaires within 20 years.

Definitely don't mine Bitcoin. It's not profitable enough for "small fishes".
Altcoins are only worth it if you have a decent amount of money to invest and/or extremely low electricity prices (substantially lower than 10 cents per KWH).

If you do start mining, you need to consider the following in your calculations:

- Tax can be substantial and up to 60% depending on the country that you live in.

- Difficulty increase by a lot, this will also eat a good amount of your profit over time.

- Electricity prices are no joke and most people can not mine profitably due to this factor alone.

- Rent for a hall in which you can park your rigs.

Basically, mining is only really worth your time and money if you can blow at least 30-50k USD into hardware, electricity and rent. You can't set up that much hardware at home without frying your grid, so you would need to rent extra space for your rigs.
