Pitié avec les sous-forums.

Les modos ont déjà fait l'énorme connerie de créer plein de sous-forums qui n'ont eu d'autre utilité que de satisfaire quelques hystériques du rangement.
Ca a tout simplement détruit l'ambiance du forum Fr qui est devenu un cimetiere inutilisable, à mon sens, quand on compare à l'ancienne version ou à d'autres sous forums anglophones/étrangers.

J'avais déjà protesté à l'époque et ça peut paraître un peu excessif si vous n'avez pas connu l'ancienne version il y a quelques années, mais je vous assure que l'ambiance y était radicalement différente : c'était convivial, tout était concentré sur deux ou trois sous-forum, avec une très bonne densitée de posts et de fréquentation, et pourtant on était probablement 10 fois moins nombreux.


Maintenant c'est juste un enfer, impossible d'attirer l'attention et encore moins de naviguer sans perdre un temps fou à repérer tous les nouveaux sujets éparpillés à travers 34 sous-forum différents sans aucune fréquentation et aucune densité de post/réponses.

Il n'y a qu'à regarder n'importe quel sous-forum, en première page vous avez des topics qui remontent à début septembre, absurde.

 

What's up with his legs ? This is the creepiest thing i have seen today, by far.

 Looks like a well dressed version of slender man. Not very appealing but these suits looks good though . 

No problem with Bitcoin.

Look, some financial terrorists even managed to create a shitcoin-alt using Bitcoin logo and brand reputation.    Ever heared of Bitcoin Cash ?

I think you're in the wrong sub-forum, though.
 

900€/Monthly rent for a 230,000€ property sounds fair, that's what i would get if i were to rent my place which is around 230K too.

You're talking about a residential neighbourhood, are there any AirBNB listings close to it ?
Depending on the neighbourhood/city, that can easily double your monthly income, that's a factor to take into consideration.


 I'm launching an Bitcoin Art &Luxury marketplace by the end of the month, i'm looking for real estate and would like to consider listing your place, but i would need at least some pictures lol.

I like that !

I'm launching an Art & Collectibles marketplace dedicated the Bitcoin community by the end of the month,  i'm currently looking for Bitcoin Artists.

I would like to list your paintings if that's fine with you.

J'insiste là dessus : toute collaboration est bienvenue ( développement, marketing & communication, modération et contrôle des annonces, recherche, veille, stratégie, suggestions et avis etc. ) nous avons l'intention de récompenser toute initiative allant dans le bon sens : nous voulons jouer collectif et "faire croquer".

Salut à tous.

J'ai développé une place de marché anglophone dédiée à l'Art et au Luxe et destinée à la communauté crypto internationale, le lancement public est prévu fin Octobre 2017.

Comme vous le savez peut être, Bitpremier.com a fermé ses portes ( de façon assez opportune pour nous ) début septembre, laissant derrière lui un vide que nous entendons combler aussi vite que possible.


Nous recherchons donc des vendeurs ( particuliers et professionnels ) pour continuer à étoffer notre catalogue avant ouverture.
 Si vous connaissez des galeristes, antiquaires, artistes, créateurs ( prêt à porter, maroquinerie ) des propriétaires de biens immobiliers ou d’œuvres d'art, des cavistes, ou des joailliers/horlogers, concessionnaires auto/moto ou si vous même vous souhaitez vendre vos biens ou créations en l'échange de BTC, faites moi signe.


Dès que nous ferons de l'argent, un système de commissions sera mis en place, ainsi que des primes en Bitcoin pour la communication ( Signatures Bitcointalk, articles de blogs, réseau sociaux, etc. ).

Nous entendons faire de ce projet quelque chose d'ouvert, transparent et communautaire, nous sommes en permanence à la recherche de collaborateurs de tous horizons et tous pays afin de créer quelque chose qui compte.



N'hésitez pas à répondre directement ici ou à m'envoyer un message privé.

Disclamer :  J'ai déjà posté un topic similaire en 2014 que j'ai effacé, le développement avait été suspendu pour diverses raisons, la principale étant le manque de volume global du marché des cryptomonnaies à cette époque ( <$6MDS de marketcap en Aout 2014 pour un BTC à 500$ ) Mais à $164MDS de marketcap et un BTC à 5000$ au moment ou je rédige ce message, cette raison n'a plus lieu d'être.

Too bad you're in a hurry.

 I'm launching an Art &Luxury marketplace for the Bitcoin Elite by the end of the month, i would have loved to list your car.

HODL : This one is quite easy but you will come across it quite often.

Coin  ( Bitcoin, Dash, Litecoin )  : An independent crypto currency, meaning it has its own blockchain ( = big decentralized ledger, you might want to google this one )
Token ( Golem, Status, Adex are tokens issued based on the Ethereum blockchain ) : A sub-coin, meaning that it was issued based on the blockchain of another coin.

HODLING/Holdingis the act of buying a coin or a token and just do nothing with it, in the hope that its value will increase.

Some Bitcointalk member started a thread years ago misspelling "holding" while he was drunk, last thing we know it quickly became a meme ( just google image HODL ) .

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=375643.0

You might want to avoid using that especially if you're new to this industry, since it's mostly used by kids and "low grade noobs" and can be quite annoying.



Welcome by the way

What do you mean you can't pay credit card debts in Bitcoin ?

Can't you just convert to FIAT and then pay your debts ?

 I'm not sure i understand the stakes here.

Wow, this is just wrong.

I understand that comes from a good intention but this is not the role of neither the mods or btctalk team to evaluate whether the goal of an ICO has been achieved or not.
Plus as VOD said, that % fee will be seen by scammers as another cost of doing "business", in addition of luring newbies into thinking Bitcointalk vouched for the advertised/escrowed ICO's.
Not to mention that would give way too much power and room for corruption to anyone in charge of vouching/evaluating these projects.

Monitoring ICO's is a full time job, and as you said there are a LOT of them out there, some looks scammy, some looks legit, but at the end of the day learning how to spot a scam is your job as an investor.

No one  can protect you against your own mistakes/lack of research. 

What you could do as an individual is developing an ICO rating service, we do need more of these and any additional one would be greatly appreciated.

I believe back in 2014/2015 i read that at least  $1,000,000 worth of bitcoins were donated by the community for the development of a new version of Bitcointalk ( can't remember the name of the thread )  and this is the result after all those years and money "invested"  ?

I won't even say anything.

i made 1000% return over a few years thanks to Bitcoin only, but that's an investment. Not a single Satoshi is to spent in bullshit or worse, converted to fiat, ever.

Now, i'm not getting rich of that, but i i decided to allow a small fraction of this capital to daytrading/investing : of course alt-trading is risky, but holding alts is even riskier since you're basically letting it go and giving up control of your investment to the markets.

However, when it comes to trading, there are quite a lot of useful knowledge and information to be learned that you could minimize that risk with, such as defining strategies by learning how to read charts RSI, MACD,  William R, knowing when to get out of a pump, following the right accounts on twitter and so on.

Granted, this is a full time job that takes some mental discipline and a lot of capital to start with for it to be worth your time, financially-wise.



Like a lot of people here, i have been smart or crazy enough to go all-in with Bitcoin years ago, so i can make about 3/4% daily returns (which by crypto standards is very conservative) trading alts and be happy with it.

Thanks to the recent surge in BTC/USD, that translates into hundreds of dollars a day without having to take much risks : i'm not looking to make a big score, i never went to sleep with an opened trade, always cashed out my positions to BTC before going to sleep and i'm proud to say i never had to sell at a loss.

I trade 5 / 10 days a month so i don't have to get a nine to five. I guess i won't buy a Lambo out of that anytime soon but i don't care since Bitcoin allowed me to enjoy the #1 non-renewable resource money can't buy : time.  

Because some moron(s) stole the money that was supposed to fund the new version of Bitcointalk.

I remember very clearly back in 2014 ( even though i forgot which thread i read that in ) that a lot of money was donated for the very purpose of improving Bitcointalk UI/UX.

We're talking about at least $1,000,000 worth of Bitcoin back when that money was donated, so after deflation one could assume that this number might easily be 10x higher by now.

Worst thing is, time i checked, no one was ever held accountable for that theft, and Bitcointalk still looks like it was stuck in 2008.


Don't get me wrong, i'm a nostalgic, i like SMF/PHP boards, but a lot of money was definitely stolen from this community, this is not Ok and something should be done about it.
Edit there seems to be a beta version of Bitcointalk 2.0 but it is terrible and looks like garbage so i assume this must be some kind of joke https://beta.bitcointalk.org



Ps : Banning giveaway thread is a moronic decision and i'll be vocal about it until the day i die, so please create a subforum for these otherwise i'll have to take this matter into my own hands.

Je suggère cet intéressant débat sur les ICO en compagnie du législateur  ( BFM TV ) .  Apparemment l'heure est aux discussions ( apparemment bienveillantes ) avec les entrepreneurs, la législation ne semble pas pour tout de suite. ( De toutes façons elle viendra de l'Europe ) .

Not allowing giveaway threads is a dumb f*****g idea.
At least create a sub-forum for it.

There are both offer and demand for shitcoin giveaways because guess what, sometimes people get lucky.

I got very lucky last month when i found out i still had lots of Stellar lumens from their 2014 giveaway.

Please fix that quickly.

Ce sont des effets d'annonce, en dernière instance ils savent qu'ils ne peuvent pas réguler un marché qui repose sur une technologie Peer to Peerr.
 Au mieux ça fait fluctuer les marchés et permet aux traders de shorter et aux holders d'acheter à bas prix avant que les cours reviennent à la normale.

Ca me fait penser à la loi Hadopi visant à interdir le téléchargement illégal, ils ont voulu arrêter Kazaa ils ont eu BitTorrent.
 
Ils finiront par restreindre sous peine d'amende l'accès aux échanges http jusqu'à ce que nous voyons venir l'émergence des échanges décentralisés, mais pour l'instant c'est encore trop tôt, Bittrex & co c'est business as usual.

Visiblement nous allons au devant d'une longue série d'annonces similaires, 2018 sans doute l'année du FUD concernant les tentatives de régulation qui n'avaient grosso modo jusqu'à la concernées que la façon d'imposer les bénéfices liées à la détention de ces dernières.  

Je pense que le coup de grâce viendra de l'Europe, si chaque état s'y met de concert on risque d'avoir droit à de sacrés mouvements de marchés en cas de directive défavorable .

 Stripe ( payment solution ) recently started the "Atlas" program for startups.

For a flat fee ( around $500 last time i asked them ) they will set up a company in Delaware for you.
If you need more, they have all the contacts you need ( legal, accounting etc. ).

https://stripe.com/atlas

You should really check out their video presentation, it's about a young girl from Egypt starting a clothing business in Delaware  without actually leaving home.
 https://youtu.be/1WxV-ellcKk

Right now they're only providing US / Delaware companies but they said they would extend their program to quite a few more countries over the next years, definitely something to follow.

If you're an EU resident, it's pretty fast ( few hours at best ) and cheap ( to set up a company in England (although it might get trickier since the Brexit etc... )   without leaving home thanks to companies like these https://www.rapidformations.co.uk/compare-packages/ with "Non-Resident package starting at 180$.

Ireland ( where all the big tech companies have their European HQ ) is quite popular too since the Brexti thing, however setting up a company over there is more expensive and complex so you might need a lawyer for this one.

I believe Estonia offers digital citizenship and easy company formations.

Anyways, just don't get fooled by these "Offshore company" ads popping up everywhere, 99% of the time they will trick you into paying 5000$ for a 500$ service. Always look TrustPilot reviews before making a final choice.


PS :  In Europe and in most parts of the world ( at least in France )  owning or forming a offshore company company without actually living there is perfectly legal, as long as you pay taxes as an individual and a citizen of your country of residence.

------

In some cases, paying almost 0% taxes is technically possible. : if you decided for instance, to move to Cyprus and become a Cypriot resident, while collecting money from a company you formed in Hong Kong, which is quite a popular cocktail.

But IMO, that's borderline greed and it requires to relocate, and to somehow say f*** off to you home country, since you won't be a contributing citizen anymore.
 
Personally, i would not go that far as to relocate both me and my company abroad, i love my nation and i'm fine contributing my fair share and living there.


However, if the state were to enforce laws or regulations that were to violate or diminish my rights and freedoms as an entrepreneur for political reasons ( making BTC illegal, cracking down on exchanges to please the Banks, etc. ) i would not hesitate a single second to leave.

Lol whatever you do, just DONT buy into Enigma ICO... Team just got their site +Slack hacked (sSo they say ) ... : apparently these geniuses were using same passwords for both, without 2FA obviously.

Looks like hackers switched Enigma ICO wallet addresse with their own.

This is a piece of s*** 
Those new giveaways are basically just "contests" where you "win" prizes.

I'm glad those are banned, however giving away FREE coins for the simple sake of it was a good thing since it encouraged creativity, and i am developing a website to bring it back and centralize it.

Anyone interested feel free to PM me.
