1641  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cash to the moon? [UPDATED: Lost money I feel stupid] on: August 19, 2017, 07:27:24 PM
Well yeah, I'm only 19 and want too much too fast I guess. It's hard to get a job for now.
Putting me under pressure because I want to get out of my parents house which is the emo side of things

if you take the time to get a better feel for things and also make some long term investments alongside trading instead of throwing everything all at once at it you'll wind up far better off.

lifestyle pressure is the last thing that should be informing trading decisions.

the guys who really make bank are the unemotional ones.
1642  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cash to the moon? on: August 19, 2017, 07:18:03 PM
The thing is I don't have a lot of money for trading cuz my parents don't like it.
I don't have a lot of patience for small amounts because it isn't worth.
I need at least a few thousand. if I have let's say 5000$ it would be worth it to have 1 percent.
So I'm taking big risks for this reason.


overextended - check.

impatient - check.

emotional - check.


all of those things make you the worst possible trader. you're gonna get eaten alive. step back, learn more and don't bet the farm on anything.

Bitcoin Cash $800.62
Byteball        $330.44
Clams          $6.67
others.....$???

you have to sign a message for byteball so you'd have to crack open the coin.

and it's now no longer worth bothering with.

the bcash thing though does make life a little complicated for casascius owners, or rather buyers.

that's more than what some coins have been fetching for sale. i wonder if it'll raise the prices concurrently and keep whatever premium there is on top intact.

Do you guys have good reasons to trust bithumb?

nope. they got hacked for billions of won recently.

but as we saw with ethereum, the koreans appear to be as degenerate as the chinese used to be when it comes to alt gambling.
1645  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cash to the moon? on: August 19, 2017, 06:58:16 PM
Here is what I think is happening: they had to wait for the difficulty on bitcoincash to drop before they started the pump. There is another difficulty drop due this weekend.

Now, a high price + low difficulty means that it is more profitable to mine bitcoincash than bitcoin at the moment. Remember that they are both sha-256 coins, and the ASIC miners who mine sha-256 coins have very few choices (only peercoin is also sha-256, the other alts are either scrypts which get mined with graphics cards, or they are POS coins).

Next, when a miner gets their reward of 12.5 coins, they can't spend those newly minted coins till they have 100 confirmations. If we assume a block every 10 minutes, then 100 confirmations is 1000 minutes which about 16 and a half hours. So this pump will continue for at least a week to entice miners - the more they see the price is holding up, the less risk they have of mining as they will reach their 100 confirmations in good time to sell at a good price.

The end game is bitcoincash taking over most of the mining power of bitcoin and replacing it as the main coin. (they obviously need infrastructure too - but they are on most exchanges, Overstock is accepting it, and payment processors like Rocketr are accepting it. That leaves just Coinbase and Bitpay holding out.)

This war has been brewing for a long long time, and the bitcoincash people mean to win.

can they afford to keep the price pumped until more miners get on board?

bitcoin miners ain't exactly like alt guys with gpus in their basements skipping from coin to coin. they're lumbering industrial operations.

they've also been around the block and they'll know perfectly well that someone is attempting to lure them.

bcash'll need to be right up there for months to be taken seriously, not just one stupid pump.
1646  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BCH threat to BTC? on: August 19, 2017, 06:53:50 PM
Yes. BTC is doomed. Has entered the chain death spiral. Bitcoin Cash will be the winner.

great. 100% centralised mining and what little development there is.

that sounds exactly like the bitcoin we've all been pining for.

can't wait.
1647  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: How to buy Tether USD? on: August 19, 2017, 06:45:41 PM
does tether have its own wallet that you can store it?

check this - https://twitter.com/spudowiar/status/896781107756232704

maybe it's just an experiment, but this guy has done another alt for trezor implementation.

why anyone would want to actually store tether when it's worthless is beyond me, but whatever.
1648  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BCH threat to BTC? on: August 19, 2017, 06:37:59 PM
But according to the news, Bitmain rejected to support BCH atm, right?
Then how did they come back into the picture and why would they leave BTC? Bitmain is a huge company and if they would have switched, BTC's difficulty would also have adjusted and BTC could have shown some signs of dump as they have been a major part in the BTC mining network.

do you really believe them?

they must have hundreds of tons of mining machines going spare, either returned, repaired or slightly obsolete. they may as well put them to use with something that fits their agenda.

they can still adhere to the 2x thing and have enough capacity to play elsewhere.
1649  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XtraBytes really becoming the platform to rule all. on: August 19, 2017, 06:34:31 PM
The downside of not having an ICO or pre-mine is indeed that this Xtrabytes is easy overlooked since there is no funding available for marketing and campaigns.

the downside of this coin is the 100% premine based off a dead ico.

it all sounds like interesting stuff but they really should not have hitched it to something that lay dead on yobit at 1 satoshi forever.

it should've begun with a clean sheet, not sullied itself with that association.
1650  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BCH threat to BTC? on: August 19, 2017, 06:31:48 PM
The only thing that's confusing me here is who is mining BCH other than ViaBTC?

no one. viabtc is bitmain, the mystery miner is bitmain too. bitmain created it and bitmain is subsidising it to the hilt.
1651  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BCH threat to BTC? on: August 19, 2017, 06:26:50 PM
anyone surprised by this pump needs to get out more.

there's less of it.

it was created to spook bitcoin.

roger ver announced the pump.

the koreans are so stupid they poured into it thinking it was an upgraded bitcoin.

it's the best pump and dump coin ever as it has that baked in flippening fear.


it also has 100% centralised mining and development so is basically the paypal of roger ver's dreams.

the real threat is the 2x coin if it happens. that would be a whole world of mess compared to this.
1652  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Fork 1:1 of Bitcoin - Pro on-chain scaling on: August 19, 2017, 12:07:14 AM

Have a look at the active miners and take your pick I would say ViaBTC


that 92% is jihan wu as well. call him up and ask for the unknown pool. he'll hook you up.
1653  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin Cash surge - reasons for the increase? on: August 19, 2017, 12:05:06 AM

I agree, i dont understand why people keep hyping bitcoin cash, it is an useless coin, i dont get it.


it's extremely useful to the enemies of bitcoin. that's all anyone needs to know and that's why it's never going away.
1654  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin Cash surge - reasons for the increase? on: August 18, 2017, 11:08:50 PM
I guess more than $ 1000, I think and hope will be up to $ 3,000 following the BTC price, because the future of BTC BCH highly profitable.

that would be a freaking disaster for all crypto. a $3000 bcash would shit all over the idea of it being a secure store of value if any asshole can copy and paste a coin. no real people would go near it ever again.

what's up with the near 10% difference between bittrex and poloniex?
1655  Economy / Economics / Re: BCC more profitable to mine on: August 18, 2017, 10:54:06 PM
Sorry, do you know how to mine BCC? May I mine BCC with my PC?

Thank you, sir.

nope. you'd still need a dedicated mining machine. the difficulty would have to drop super radically for that to be possible, and there are thousands of old miners and gpus that would pick up the slack before a pc could do it.
1656  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Fork 1:1 of Bitcoin - Pro on-chain scaling on: August 18, 2017, 10:26:03 PM
That's the strange thing.. following my tx trail is looks like it all came in under the same address but in 2 separate txs. That's the key I dumped. The other address in this wallet has never been used.

what bcash wallet was it?

i've been using coinomi and there've been quite a few weird glitches with it.
1657  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is BitcoinCash a joke? on: August 18, 2017, 10:21:35 PM
I know.

That was my joke.

by the way: How to include the picture itself in a post and not the url?

you have to up your rank. it was disabled for newcomers because this forum was spammed like crazy by a psycho fudster for years on end with annoying photos.
1658  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin Cash surge - reasons for the increase? on: August 18, 2017, 10:10:00 PM
korea has its teeth in it.

they were also the leaders in ethereum's ultimate pump.

some are saying it's being marketed there as an upgraded bitcoin. upgrade plus lower price plus lack of education = pump.

1659  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is BitcoinCash a joke? on: August 18, 2017, 10:00:36 PM
Referring to the headline, here is the ultimate proof that BTH is a joke:


(that was short after initial listing on Polo, so the calculating routine probably couldn't handle the percentages)

nah. there's lot of alts newly listed on there that did the same thing. it's pretty common.

i can't remember which one it was, but one lost 99.8% of its value in the first day.
1660  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments on: August 18, 2017, 09:59:20 PM


When is the next airdrop?
and where can I see pricing of black byte, unable to find it on coinmarketcap

the next full moon.

blackbyte price is set in the slack channel mainly. byteball.co gives a price but i don't know how accurate or relevant it is.
