IQ does not matter for when greed overtakes a person which is why so many people fell for the bitconnect scam. They believed that they could make so much money in such little time.
Sorry but if your IQ doesn't help you when you chose on what color to cross the street the I guess you can call it useless. A person with a high IQ should understand what a scam is and should also be able to evaluate the risk and control his greed. If the IQ means only you're able to solve puzzles faster than your friends, then it's kind of an useless indicator, right? Are there any details on the sample size of the study? Does it specify which IQ test was taken to determine the scores? Need a lot more information to be able to draw conclusions with any real value.
The experiment was passed by people who have absolutely polar position about perspective of cryptocurrency in the modern world. There were 1000 people from 7 different European countries (Spain, France, UK, Germany, Poland, Russia, Estonia). So, participants were divided into 2 identical groups.
Ergo, both groups passed D. Eysenck’s classical IQ test.
Also there is one interesting fact: However, it’s interesting to note that the first group had comparatively smooth results, while for the second group the amplitude of the difference was relatively large. The record result was 139 points and a kind of anti-record – 82 points. So although the average IQ of the tokenholders group was higher, the second group had individuals which scored far better than the ones in the first group, it's just that their average was worse. |

I opened few posts that I am interested in, and then read them all and start posting. What's wrong with this?
This is my reading habit. I always pick out some topics that I am interested in and start reading all. So I can publish every 2 minutes, you can check my post, all related to the topics，no one is spam.
So what rules did I violated? Please quote the forum rules to give me a exact reply.
I've already said it, I don't know why you were banned in the first place and that my hunch was on you posting tons of garbage in a small interval and not because of the ton of alts you have. But I could be wrong about it and the reason might not be this one. Anyhow, what rule have you broken? From my point of view, the very first one!!! 1. No zero or low value, pointless or uninteresting posts or threads. [1][e] You could be right however may be the mods will know better as it's not very clear yet.
Yeah, we're going to have to wait and see who do we have to congratulate!  |

Just thought if there would be any bounty campaign that would reward people not with their own tokens or btc but with merit, would it be ok ?
Since this is not selling merit directly and I saw some topics where merit was given for people who made OP laugh, or some other topics where merit was given for answering the OP's questions and it was allowed. What do you think ?
Bounty campaigns are rewarding users with crappy tokens that in most cases have 0 value as you can make millions of them with a few line of code almost effortlessly. The same stands for bounty hunters, all they do is posting to fb and tweeter, a job that only requires pressing 4 buttons, ctrl,c,v,enter. No "dev" team will have merit to award and almost no bounty hunters are able to create a post that would deserve merit. So, even if we forget about the rules, it's not going to happen. |

My bitcointalk link profile: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1233603I carefully read the rules of the forum. I think that I did not violate the rules of the forum. My English may not be very good, but I have been very serious in learning English. My replies are my own opinions. I have not plagiarized and Copy someone else's post, did not advertise, why should banned me, moderator please give me a reason? I might be wrong however it could be for this topic: Investigation about alt accounts over SEMUX signature campaign [OPEN]
On the topic I found your name. Looking at your post history seems you were indeed posting for the sake of signature campaign. I doubt he was banned because of that, if that would have been the case all the accounts would have been banned. The only problem I see with his posts (out of the ordinary compared to other bounty spammers) is the gap between them, he has made 13 posts with an average break between of roughly 2 minutes. No way he was reading the topic or other posts in that time. So, posts bursting?  |

Problem identified: Some scam ICOs also get funded due to unauthentic or may be paid rating or may be due to lack of awareness.
Solution: So can we develop a system where community member can vote for ICOs or any other way. So that ppl can invest in ICO with true rating.
Outcome: Fail. No system is going to stop paid reviews and paid bumping, even if you put requirements like merit or rank for those that can leave feedback. Everybody has a price, the scams will still thrive. And I'm willing to bet that legit ideas that can't afford to pay for ratings will get even less exposure. |

But damn I think Digiran lost more than a few screws while I was gone. Last I remember he was accusing BTCforJoe for his signatureless campaign and the next thing I know is he's deep in the rabbithole of trolling, red paints and wild delusions.
You could open an entire Home Depot with the things he has lost in the last few weeks  . Could we have a fork of DT?
We already have one, it's called Reddit  Give it a try! |

The oil price is going up and many people expect it will go above 100 USD per barrel,or even 120 USD per barrel.How this will impact the world economy and the cryptocurrency prices?
I have many own theory about this and I will share it later,but know I'm waiting for other opinions.
Is this good or is it bad for bitcoin?
It's neither. Besides, oil at 120 is a bit far fetch, if it's going to raise that much consumption will drop and more shale oil will flood the market alongside with heavy oil. 100$ maybe, because of the current flip flop with Iran but 120...doubt it. Back to bitcoin, it is going to have 0 effect. Oil at 10$ or at 100$ it's the same, those two have no connection whatsoever. |

Isn't that similar to what 21 Inc pivoted to? Earning BTC from email or something along those lines?
And it pivoted from that to ....nothing I'm still waiting for my fridge and my lighting bulb that is going to mine BTC and pay the electric bill Oh...and still waiting for the toaster also We all know that in order for bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies to be adopted, the current ecosystem has to be simpler than what it is today.
Simple in what? What can be simpler that having a wallet and sending and receiving coins? Whenever people get lazy and choose the easy way they also abandon security, and coins that are not protected or are stored on a 3rd party app or wallet are coins creaming to be lost. |

User: Skarga94 Banned Post: In early December, the Venezuelan President announced the creation of a national cryptocurrency. At the end of the month, Nicolas Maduro provided the coin with oil and in addition promised to strengthen its position with diamonds and gold. Following Venezuela's technology, on the basis of which the cryptocurrency works, Sierra Leone became interested. On March 15, the country held the first round of elections, the votes of which were counted with the help of blockchain.The development of the vote counting system was engaged in CEO of Agora startup Leonard Gammar. According to him, in the future the company intends to extend the product to other African countries, and then to the rest of the world.The company notes that the blockchain is the only technology that can make elections transparent and honest.

Most often, copies of block chains are stored on many different computers independently of each other.Transaction block is a special structure for recording a group of transactions in the Bitcoin system and similar ones. A transaction is considered complete and reliable ("confirmed") when its format and signatures are checked, and when the transaction itself is grouped with several others and recorded in a special structure — a block. The contents of blocks can be checked because each block contains information about the previous block. All blocks are built in one chain, which contains information about all operations ever performed in the database. The very first block in the chain-the primary block-is considered as a separate case, since it does not have a parent block

4 years? That's just one year!
The rocket cannot refuel without touching earth again. Even $6000 still feels too expensive for latecomers. Anyone who got involved 1 year to 6 mos ago, they are still up and probably reluctant to buy moar.
At some point, the price will hit a magic number where old timers and newcomers alike feel compelled to buy again. This might require bouncing off a lower support a few times or consolidating sideways.
Bargain basement prices along with positive fundamental analysis is the rocket fuel we are looking for.
Yeah, but I was telling you that the entire BTC graph looks bullish if you apply that pattern, If the ups and downs continue you can just add a few more months from the past and it's still going to look bullish. And if even that fails, just add more till 2009 So, it will go up for sure , unless...  But you might be right about the entry price I''m not seeing the usual "cheap coins" posts on the WOT thread like the last time.. |

This is really surprising, especially since it's a service to top up your phone card. Most people already have subscriptions for their phones and I doubt the average charge goes above 10 euros. That would lead us to at least 20 customers daily over LN. That's really impressing, especially since LN is still not a finished product. but actually the BTC transactions are fast and cheap right now,without the help of LN.
The blockchain has to be stuck with too many transactions and the fees have to increase a lot,in order for us to the real value of LN.
Well, to be honest this is the same thing that has prevent me to play around with a client. The fees are now so cheap, fast confirmation with 10 cents and on top of it I'm in quite a lazy mood lately so I've never actually tried to make a payment via LN. But if that spam waves comes back, no way I'm going to pay 20$, I'd rather spend one whole day experimenting and setting it up than filling bitmain pockets.... |

the first support poin is around 7800 usd, if it will be crashed 7200 is possible area for support, but i dont think it will crush 7800, because this support seems very strong and bounce will be possible.
And 12 hours later .... When it goes down, BTC doesn't mess with a few hundreds Next important mark is $7200, if it drops lower it can go anywhere up to $5k. So, you can wait a bit and watch the trend. If it goes up above 8-8.5k, buy, all you lose it not more than 5-7%. Or just buy now with no risk and headache, price is ok
Sorry but out of pure curiosity, why is 7200 so important and why after this it's straight to 5k? We've been in this scenario before and it got stopped at 6k, why now it's straight to 5k? Assuming you have TA for those claims and you're not pulling those numbers out of you know where Next important mark is $7200, if it drops lower it can go anywhere up to $5k. So, you can wait a bit and watch the trend. If it goes up above 8-8.5k, buy, all you lose it not more than 5-7%. Or just buy now with no risk and headache, price is ok
Your calculation is completely wrong even if it goes below to 7200$ and it is the right time to buy the bitcoin. Any price below $10k is always the right choice to invest in bitcoin without any problem. And I thought that any price below 11 451 $ was a great deal. Oh boy, whenever there are huge price swings the speculation board is getting so damn funny |

If you use data from 4 yeas ago to create the pattern it's always going to be bullish, there is no way to have a graph matching the bearish ones in that image. I just hope we won't be touching 6000 again,this it's getting annoying. But despite those pattern play, I will first start to get bullish again when we break above $12k or see that golden cross happen.Anything else is not strong enough evidence for me that the bulls have taken over.
Breaking 10 000 and staying for a while seems now pretty bullish to me And as always BTC doesn't care about TA and patterns, I'm willing to bet the next month will again prove the price is as chaotic as it can be. |

Previously I also used to think like you until a friend of mine started using Coinbase Custody. Coinbase Custody provides you a good amount of services along with advantages. If you are a day trader, handling your own privates key could be sometimes difficult, which is why Coinbase Custody is used.
Yeah really... So your fried has a 10 million balance on Coinbase and has paid the 100 000 $ for it? Has also your friend understood that this service is not for traders as in trading on exchange but acquiring large sums of crypto, as those are using their funds daily, this is only for businesses that are storing those coins there? Be honest, in reality you don't have a clue what this service is about, do you? Many people who are not technology freak finds it tedious to take care of their own coins. They find too geeky to maintain their own wallet. Thus different companies and institutions out there are taking advantage of such people and providing them those services. People start to trust them with their coin not knowing the risks just to keep themselves away from maintaining their own coins.
It's not only that. In a large corporation or a multinational business it's pretty hard even from legal point of view to entrust the private keys to somebody. It's like having cash and storing it in the houses of the CEOs. So, a service like CC which is more like a bank with a secure vault is the easier way to solve problems. |

TuxExchange.com still has NO KYC, you can come straight from TOR with as much of whatever crypto you want and leave with whatever you want at any time, no questions asked..
You only have to verify your email and I think it can be any email..
According to Canadian law it is not required since Tux does not list any fiat currencies..
Their company and ownder/devs identities are legally registered in Canada..
It could be a GREAT exchange if more people would use it..
And, what to exchange there? Coin that you have to get from others exchange which accept fiat !!! You're missing the point of the problem. 99% of people out there have FIAT and want to get into crypto. Most of them don't give a damn about KYC but those that do are having less and less options to purchase coins anonymously. Satoshi wanted people to have the same level of anonymity as people who used fiat cash, but third party services
are turning their backs on that vision and are bending over to governments and their regulations to identify people behind Crypto currencies.
I'm not sure that Satoshi wanted this but still, you're comparing apples and oranges. You have anonymity purchasing stuff with cash, but you never had anonymity when changing your cash from usd to euros for example. Nor had you anonymity when you received your paycheck. Yeah you can buy a bottle of coke anonymously with cash, the same stands for some stuff you can buy with BTC. There is no difference there. Once you start using your money to do financial transactions, cash was never the solution for it. |

Are we going to see February levels, soon? Or are we in a bear merit market ? Can't stop looking at that graph and thinking of the price I'm wondering about a thing, as I'm not the tech guy that is familiar with this stuff. Since a lot of tracking is focused on the merit people get, shouldn't we look just for a moment at those that don't get any? One thing I'm curios about and I really didn't know who to ask about, can we have also a top of users active since the merit system that haven't received a single merit, ordered by the number of posts? The hall of shame spam bounty. And another, most users speak about increasing merit sources, incentivizing users to spend merit in order to raise the numbers of circulation merit but...are there really 5000 or 10 000 posts that deserve merit created a month? This is starting to sound like fiat problems, what if we produce and throw around too much? |

What do you guys think in a near future there gonna be coins like "Bit-America" or "Canada-coin", backed up by public assets, would that be a good idea
There's one already the "Petro Coin" a coin from Venezuela. I would invest if these big countries will make their own coins but I doubt that they would do. They are against to crypto's so why would they create one? Another thing is this is not the section for this topic, move it to altcoin. Invest in what? All the coins that are going to be created by a country are going to have their values pegged to their national currency. What stops you know for getting rupiahs and when they launch the coins the value will soar...right? I still don't understand why some governments or even big corporations would want to create such coins but they are doing it anyways so to answer your first question, yes we will see many coins like that which are created by the governments and are backed by some real assets like Petro which is backed by oil.
Propaganda, cheap funds from morons, ways to distract the public from their problems. And now honestly, you don't believe that whole "backed by oil" carp from Maduro, do you?  |
