Surprisingly, Finland might be next.  This guy is nuts.

He is nuts, but i don't think they would invade Finland, i mean USSR already tried that and suffered miserably. Also Ukraine had a long crisis that putin used as an excuse to invade. Finland however is very stable and weirdly thanks to Crazy putin now it feels more united then ever as we have a clear common threat. We are most likely joining to NATO too as public opinion has now strogly shifted towards it.

In Finland we are not that afraid of invading but a nuclear threat and ww3. Some people from Finland i know have already left fighting for ukraine. I feel that best way for me to contribute is to keep working and pay taxes so we have stable society.

What it comes to WW3, i've never been this scared about it. I don't think it would happen but i didn't think that Crazy Putin would invade either. Actions from Putin seem just too crazy and unpredictable.

Well this is why the telegram scams are a thing. People fell for them. I have yet not regretted reporting and blocking anyone who had financial offer for me in telegram. Well sometimes i waste their time a lot by being difficult catch and making up some weird excuses to make them work more.

Ok first of all l thought maybe i should give it some time to recover and it will show its power but damn this coin literally angers me. When bitcoin coin crashed it was like -22% and one of the worst affected cryptocurrency, I was like ok I will give it some time and it will recover with same speed bit no when bitcoin start recovering the other coins move up to double digit but this guy hardly moving at all. I still think it is one of best crypto coin in universe ok at least in Earth it has so many use cases like staking, ico and the team also burn coins from time to time. So what went so wrong is it its unlimited supply or something else? And another thing it is not just performing so terrible with this crash but was going down continuously even before that.  

On the other hand you can consider yourself lucky, as everyone wanted to buy cake cheaper and now they can. Literally every crypto is for sale so you make your pick, it doesn't even have to be cake.
126  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Which one has a Ethereum-like potential? on: January 06, 2022, 12:13:33 AM
Hello,
Which one of the following coins has a Ethereum-like potential:

1- Terra
2- Avalanche
3- Polygon
4- Moonriver

Thank you.

I mean i like avalanche in general, though i don't like their shady marketing. But it's not an "Eth killer". None of the projects are. Eth is just too far ahead of most projects. And eth 2.0 is probably render most "eth killers" irrelevant and they will eventually die. But competition is always good and we learn from our mistakes. When there are more people making mistakes, we learn even more.

Is forking a coin like monero or bytecoin the only way to create a privacy coin? or is there some other blockchain? like erc-20 but for privacy coins

If you can't create it yourself then forking is the way. But you aren't really "creating" anything of value, nor it should have value if you aren't bringing anything new to the table. Tokens on the blockchain aren't really privacy coins, they are just tokens. There aren't privacy smart contracts yet that allow creating natively private tokens, But Dusk Network is creating one.

First off, what the video talks about is simply a single aspect of the art market. So it is rather unfair to call the entire art market a scam. The video is particularly referring to a very small yet very influential portion of the market. Influential not necessarily because the artworks auctioned are highly venerated works of genius artists but because they are very expensive. Expensive, again, not necessarily because of the artworks themselves but because of the people and the companies involved. It is therefore an art market sans the art. That's probably what happens when crazy, rich, vain elites are the main players. They badly need to appear sophisticated.

I don't think the corrupt side of the modern art market has already reached the NFT market. I don't think we can discuss about the same art donation ploy, tax evasion, money laundering, and the likes within the NFT market. What is already reaching the NFT market very early on is the ludicrous price tags. But that's normal when crazy rich elites join the game. They always tend to show off. They have that unquenchable thirst.

I agree that you can't just call the whole art market as a scam, but what comes to corrupt side of NFTs, it's just obvious imho. There are a LOT of people that have shady history when it comes to source of their cryptocurrencies, and especially now if FATF travel rule comes into action, the source of that money needs to be documented.

What would be better way to wash your money then make "art" and buy it from yourself.

"No your honor, i didn't make my millions with drugs or with ico scams, i drew thise stoner frogs with my left hand and sold them with millions"

Things like this make sense when you think about it as money loundering:

Because Ethereum has better technology and smart contracts, I think the price may catch up with BTC in the future, what is your opinion Grin
No.

Look to the supply of both cryptos. Bitcoin has a lesser supply and it also has a lot of lost bitcoins forever so that adds up to the market cap and it will remain there forever.

I am pretty sure that OP was talking about marketcap, not price per coin. At least if he/she understands how valuation works.

Ethereum has a lot of supply and that's why it's going to change into a PoS. I don't see any catch up from Eth's price to btc's.

What are you even talking about? Supply or inflation wasn't a reason for movin from POW to Proof Of Stake. In fact that has zero to do with it even if ETH tokenomics have changed in 2.0 too. Changing to PoS was more for ideological / enviromental reasons.

On the El Salvador not being able to support a miner, most countries that accept the US dollar as their currency also can't print it. They just exchange it for resources or aid...
The only difference between the US dollar and Bitcoin is that you don't require an entire energy grid to get a dollar.


What? They are both designed for totally different reasons. They are both good for their own purposes, usd just isn't designed for value growth but to keep their current capitalist system working alive and well as a fast and and highly liquid value transfer.

BTC as a currency is rather pointless even though people are using it. It makes as much sense as using apple stocks as a currency when that company was just starting. And i say this fully knowing that i have been spending btc since 2014.

132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Creat New Token on: August 29, 2021, 11:57:07 PM
I want to make some tokens in the market. But I don't know where to make tokens and list them on the exchange. How many $dollars can it cost to create a token?
 Can someone help me with this?

Just don't. Please. You are not creating anything that has value. Only thing you can do is to hire someone to create another generic token without any use case. I know it doesn't have an use case because you can't even create one and want instantly list it. And looking things from your side, you probably end up paying way more listing fees then you could scam from anyone that you tricked buying it.

There are already enough scammers in this scene and it doesn't sound like you can swim in those waters.

This was a successful project in the past as they raised a good amount and even listed it in Binance.

I am sorry but maybe i am missing the point here. How was this successful? It was an illegal ICO from the start so i wouldn't call that a success. Funny thing is that there are others targeted from illegal sale of securities as well, people just don't know it yet until info on that is public. Personally i am amazed that they didn't do research on this before. Or maybe their legal team is just really bad.
134  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as primary currency on: August 28, 2021, 11:22:32 AM
If I were you, I won't accept 100% payment in Bitcoin. Since you need fiats for your daily life, it will be better to accept 50% in Bitcoin and 50% in Fiats. In this way, you won't get difficulties to fulfill your daily needs. And you also can invest half of your monthly salary in Bitcoin. Don't put 100% of your income into Bitcoin investment, don't be greedy. Remember that investing in Bitcoin is a high risk, there is no guarantee to take profits there. Always think wisely and don't risk your life.

Even 50% is quite big amount considering we don't know his monthly expenses. BTC seems like a lucrative investment for anyone who haven't seen the fud and what it can do to the price just when you needed the cash, and neither they have experienced the market cycles and how they affect fomo and fear. Because there might be a time when they need cash for unexpected expenses. And either they are lucky and btc is up then, or they are going to pay way more then they anticipated.
135  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: South African Man Loses $900,000 Worth Of BTC After Accidentally Deleting Keys on: August 26, 2021, 07:31:37 AM
It is better to store BTC in an online wallet, such as COINBASE .
Are you kidding me?

If you don't mind taxes or possibility to gov seizing your funds, btcinmylife is actually correct. Places like coinbase offer way more security then most people could, and their funds are mostly insured anyway. I know it's against the whole original idea of owning your keys, but i sleep safer when i know there are more safety measures keeping my assets safe then trusting myself with them. Hell i even lose my car keys all the time.

One of the major reasons why people didn't want to hold cryptos in exchanges back in days was the fact that they were unsecure, unregulated, waiting to be hacked or exit scamming and most of the smaller and new ones still are shady as hell. Luckily you can easiy regocnise them because they do serious amount of fake volume without any real liquidity.

But what it comes to original article, it's possible to lose keys, i've done that too, but it's impossible to prove that you did lose them and are not just avoiding taxes. I personally don't trust people by default if they lose lot of money. Because that's how i would avoid taxes if i wanted to do that.
136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Am I wrong? on: August 25, 2021, 07:18:49 PM
Is it possible that crypto will become stable when mass adoption occurs? I'm not saying stable like USDT I'm saying stability/bottom minus huge or massive dumps that we are all used to when bear market strikes, I know everyone can't be a holder but if crypto eventually achieve its dream of means of payment there will be more stability in crypto market, am I wrong?

You are saying "crypto" like it would be one thing. But it's an umbrella of different kind of approaches. Maybe if the marketcap of one of them is high enough, it will be relatively stable, but it will depend on the tokenomics and issuance rate.

But then again, all it needs is one big failure and it will come crashing down, what ever coin it will be then.
137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Notice your emotion on: August 25, 2021, 02:02:27 PM

Emotions do play an important role in trading and investing. Fluctuating prices affect psychology and I think if we don't have a good trading and investment plan, we can panic and sell our tokens at low prices.
But if we have a good trading plan and invest for the long term, I think we will get profit as long as we hold the tokens.

It depends what tokens are you holding though. You can hold your rug pulled project to the end of time and get nothing from it, no matter what you plan was, it's pointless to hold if the fundamentals change. So always double check the fud, even when it isn't real, it often affects the price trend, especially in crypto.
138  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would you consider living on crypto? on: August 25, 2021, 01:56:13 PM
I have been living with crypto visa cards but those don't count. In order for it not to be converted to fiat in some point it would need to be accepted as a real currency, but obviously it won't because of the volatility.

In opposion, fiat money on the other hand is inflationary by design, and it isn't a bad thing. It's stable enough for the purpose it's been created, as a highly liquid transfer of stable enough value. Just because it's not designed to hold value, doesn't mean it doesn't work. If fiat wasn't inflationary, it wouldn't work either and the current system wouldn't hold.
139  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🎲BetFury.io|🔥NEW game CRYPTOS release 🔥 |⚡️Free BTC+BNB| 📈HotBit listing on: August 17, 2021, 11:41:59 AM
I would put it in staking. Just did some calculations, based on the current values. Buying 1000 BFG tokens would cost 33$. Made some assumptions: all staking values would remain the same and I calculated with 2 possible crypto prices (one low and one high). Based on this, it would take 10 months (in a bull market) before you would break even.
Any thoughts on this?



I wouldn't count on this. You would have to count in that crypto prices go up and money inflow to the site might go down. Not to mention the inflation on the tokens. Long time roi is very hard to predict in betfury.
140  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: NMX Nominex token on: August 17, 2021, 09:26:30 AM
How could someone manipulate the price so easily? This could be due to the reduced market interest in the NMX token, more good news is needed to raise the price.

You are correct. And new people are getting confused as they don't know how to read the orderbook action to see that most of nmx/usd trades there the trades are faked volume. So they see volume as a market interest. Fake volume is kinda frustating but not at all unusual on exchanges that don't have enough liquidity to to attract people.

Why is the Nominex team not so active in adding new tokens to their exchange? wouldn't adding new tokens in the exchange attract new traders and increase users and trading volume?

This is because they are waiting for the binance broker program to kick in (it should have started already), where they get all the binance pairs they want instantly.
