Good to see, from the other thread about this I saw it mentioned: anyone can reach this step in the process (patent process)!
But, did anyone ever claim the crypto market acts on logic..  Angry
no way he'll actually be recognized in the end. but in reality, does it matter? he and those around him can continue claiming not to sign with keys for whatever reason.. and aslong as they've got their cult-surroundings, they'll be earning money.

Trace Mayer has already come up with it, it is called: Proof of Keys, happens on the every 3rd of January

Every January 3rd the Bitcoin community HODLers of Last Resort participate in a Proof of Keys celebration by demanding and taking possession of all bitcoins held by trusted third parties on their behalf.

You can read more about it here:
https://www.tracemayer.net/

Or watch him:

this is cool and interesting, has it had a big effect anywhere? never noticed anything about it  Embarrassed

CoinMetro.com is in relatively early stages but I've gone over to 100% believing in it (holding their token which works a bit like BNB but more use cases).
they're very regulation friendly = will survive in the legal aspect, with a very experienced CEO, who for example knows that an exchange won't be able to survive solely on trading fees etc.
They currently have a new member raffle to win 5000 XCM (if signing up using an ambassador link) - more information

but there's fiat SEPA/SWIFT/Credit card deposits, fiat withdrawals, fiat/crypto withdrawals,
EUR pairings for all listings (soon to hopefully be 3 new listings per week).
margin trading with all listings.
etc. even if one isn't interested to buy the XCM token (which is very undervalued imo), it's a great exchange to use in general.
24/7 support even which is very rare!

this is more likely than Craight Wright actually being Satoshi!
205  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Craig Wright recognised by US Govt as Satoshi, author of white paper on: May 21, 2019, 06:48:53 PM
This is not recognising him as Satoshi, it's the step before (=anyone can reach this step), isn't that right?
206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / CoinMetro - a regulation friendly exchange - new member raffle to win ~$150 on: May 21, 2019, 06:27:06 PM
CoinMetro.com has become my personal favourite but it's relatively new and therefore I thought to try make a post about it especially because the ongoing campaign where new members can win 5000 XCM! which means it should be easy to bring in people who are looking for a legit and reliable exchange in relatively early stages of development which is a great time to get engaged.

Follow the link to see more information about the raffle, or read below.

Currently there are only the top coins listed but the goal in the nearby future is to on a weekly basis list 3 new coins (with EUR pair!).
They have their underlying token called XCM which is currently very undervalued (in my opinion), it's an utility token that basically powers the exchange.
Margin Trading!
24/7 live support!

Fiat deposits and withdrawals via SWIFT/SEPA/credit card,
crypto deposits/withdrawals available from KYC tier 1.


Just take a look at their YouTube for example to witness the transparency!
CoinMetro.com


CoinMetro is building a CSD and an MTF:
"Regulated tokenized equity/debt/convertibles, where you can pay in fiat and invest and gain access to retail/institutional liquidity on a global scale, there is no competition. ZERO!"

Huge news, far bigger than just a crypto exchange!
join and get 20 free XCM  Grin




CoinMetro's XCM token is tied in with all fee functionality of the platform, and a lot of utility.
Currently, a 50 XCM bonus is given on the first deposit!

Best fees in the market! 0.075% taker fees and get paid 50% as as maker.

ICOs opened this startup-investing to people, which is great,
but kinda like you say, we can't have something good because it gets abused.
people/scammers realise it's 99% about writing a fancy concept and then you get money.

but, you're probably happy that ICOs are kinda dying nowadays?
208  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETHERSCAN UI HAD CHANGED AND IT CHANGE FOR THE BETTER! on: February 15, 2019, 07:31:35 PM
the new design is good but what new features is there?
and is the More Info box just redundant for wallets?
209  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is the large variety of Altcoins hurting the market? on: February 15, 2019, 03:21:29 AM
  You could make the argument that if all of the capital in crypto only had to be spread across 50 coins that that would make each of those coins extremely more valuable.  In light of that thought, is the huge variety of Altcoins ultimately a good or bad thing for crypto? 

Its a bad thing. It only causes more confusing and makes crypto look bad in general.. imagine if there was only 100 coins, and $100 in crypto..
that $100 will be spread across the 100 coins, making each coin worth about $1 each..

NOW, imagine if there was only 10 coins, and $100.. now each coin will be worth $10 each instead of $1 each..
its the same concept but just on a bigger scale!

well not entirely correct is it, if you remove all these shitcoins it doesn't mean all the money would go into another crypto!
many of the cryptos and icos has received money from outside-crypto sphere investors.

to reply on topic, it does make the market a bit  "embarassing", in reality, a few coins alone make the majority of coins redundant.
the next bullrun will bring a few coins up to the top and remove the vast majority of these other ones.

i disagree with you 100 precent. you dont know what ur talking about Roll Eyes

care to specify something?
the vast majority of coins are tokens, and the vast majority of tokens never will/doesn't do anything that can't already be done.
do you think all these coins serve a purpose? were you shilled some shitcoin that you believe will be the next big thing?
there's a reason BTC was the first big thing, ETH the second, ..
what does all the other coins bring to the table? 99% = nothing that Can Not already be done with btc/eth.

Monero is currently, just as any other crypto, more or less tied to Bitcoin.
Sure Monero can go to $400 - just at has been before. but that was following Bitcoin.
there is not much development wise that could give Monero alone any push.
212  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to distinguish between good and bad projects on: February 12, 2019, 03:57:49 PM
I've written a post here about it:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3760625
 Cheesy

it's only my ideas of how to evaulate a project, you should always be sure of your investment personally.
213  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Distribution of tokens in installments on: February 12, 2019, 12:49:06 AM
is this a bounty or tokens from an ICO?
it seems like it's a good idea bounty wise, even if it will still cause smaller dumps spread out instead.
but if this is from investing in an ICO, it's pretty common to lock access to funds for a time for those who buys in early..
(but, with that, it means the project has a "cost scale" which isn't very good to begin with)
214  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tron Village on: February 12, 2019, 12:42:59 AM
I took a quick look at the site but I have a question regarding the payouts. How does the site generate revenue for paying out?

Player are buying new factories, wich increase total reserve. Payment to players are made from these reserve.

I am glad you like this project. I already put some my TRX in and just building my own village Smiley

isn't this just a pyramid scheme in the end then?
if it all relies on new people entering the game with their money?
215  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is better- peer to peer centralized exchange or decentralized exchange ? on: February 12, 2019, 12:41:44 AM
if a p2p centralized exchange means using an account etc and using the exchange's wallets, then that seems like a good alternative for the general user still,
but decentralized exchanges will always be preferrable just the way it's preferrable to hold our own keys,
comparatively more difficult to use tho.
216  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: ☛ Signature Bounty & Merit System on: February 12, 2019, 12:37:32 AM
that would probably promote the buying/selling, or easier, trading of merits I think.
but if it was going to be used, maybe it'd be better not to have it as a bonus, but the whole signature bounty like: make 5 posts that become merited.
although that's a bit outside the scope of a bounty manager maybe, plus very few would join those.
217  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why I'm NOT Buying Ethereum... on: February 11, 2019, 12:24:26 AM
sorry if I'm slow here but are you just shilling nauticus or what's the relation between STOs and Nauticus and Not buying eth?
218  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What can be done with those who think Crypto is just a get rich quick scheme? on: February 10, 2019, 03:13:05 AM
IMO Bitcoin is worth no more than $300 and it will even out at so in the future.

and how on earth did you come up with this figure?
why not $200? $400?

in reality, bitcoin should either be worthless or constantly growing due to less created from mining.
just like gold but with the dimishing part.

It just my free opinion what I personally value Bitcoin to be worth.

Sure it is to be growing but at the same time it losses value from not being able to provide a viable product at this point in time.

So you have to account for both as days go by bitcoin will lose value as it won't and can't compete with new tech coming out but at the same time it becomes more valuable because of the limited amount.

But even then with the limited amount it only has value if people have interest in buying it, there are plenty of coins out there with a small coin supply but just because of that it does not mean it will succeed.

At the same time I do not see Bitcoin being completely worthless as I said I see it only as being a collectors items just because it was the first cryptocurrency.

Still me personally I would not buy Bitcoin for no more than $300, why would I want to have so long wait time when I could just quickly trade and exchange other coins at a faster rate and much more effectively than Bitcoin.


Do you know what perceived value is? If not here is a definition by cambridge:
the value of a product based on how much customers want or need it, rather than on its real price.

Do I need Bitcoin or want it? No so it has no real value to me.

Do the majority of people holding Bitcoin need it no so it has no real value to most people.

Do you need fiat? fiat isn't backed by anything and it only has the value we assign to it,
just as bitcoin or other crypto.

did you buy bitcoin at $300 or how come you're here on this forum arguing about it? (i mean, if you don't hold any?)
219  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who is the cheater? on: February 09, 2019, 12:12:55 AM
all the power is in the developer's hands. it seems like there's somehow multiple aspects here, why choose a project which you assume will be worthless after the first dump?
and it's only a unreliable team that would act this way.
