1141  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [VRC] | VeriCoin | POS-NSDI | VeriBit | VeriSend | VeriSMS | SuperNET Core on: December 10, 2014, 02:45:03 PM
I was wondering when we are going to see  the 500 sat price? I assume in January.

January is probably a bit too soon, but it certainly seems to be headed in that direction.

It appears that James still wants them somehow so expect at one point or another a huge rebound, a double or triple almost instantly... Of course that is likely to happen when the price has dwindled significantly even from current numbers. But I don't think we will see 500 sat in a very long long time. under 2000 though, to me a foregone conclusion.

But not just VRC, as I forecast about a month ago, ALL alts, in general, will be decimated to 1/4 or less of the then valuations. We are already quite underway in that direction in just a month or less. There's not even a remote justification for current valuations for something that has no value, no use and that is supported, basically, by pot-smoking, non-working jerkoffs with no access to money. And that's 85-95% of the alts demographics.

Hopefully James will update us about the state of affairs, I asked him to come here and to do so.

One thing is sure, there is no money on the market whatsoever, so whatever James does this party is probably over.

altcoinUK, i'm not part of anything and i only have 250K bay because i don't invest much money into something new i don't know how it works out. I will invest later when marketplace is online even if i have to pay 1000 satoshi for it then. But now i'm doing nothing.

Now i go back to work. I work 60 hours per week and additionally spend 10 hours per week to do crypto research but this will stop now as it is useless because it's always "same shit, different day".

with kind regards,
randywald


Thanks Andy for confirming the nature of your involvement, it is refreshing to know that you are not one of the Bitbay wankers, just one of the naive investors.

Take care mate!

Altcoins dying anyway

In fact, that's quite true, no liquidity whatsoever on the market.
1144  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 10, 2014, 02:20:00 PM
The problem ist that the whole discussion is rumor and i see no facts. I only see a desperate bundle of people wasting time posting things they can't proof.

Really?

Fact #1, even David Zimbeck acknowledged, not only privately, but in this thread that the Bitbay ICO was indeed pushed up to the completion by the scammers and not by legit nor free-market investment.

Fact #2, even David acknowledged that the current dump comes from the organizers of the ICO who bought into their own offering.

Fact #3, the price is 90 sat - no legit investor sell at this price nor panic dump result in the magnitude of the sell off, only the scammers who bought into their own ICO could dump at this level.

If you are part of the scam or you are just one of the desperate wankers who are waiting for the pump to make a few Bitcoins, then I understand you ignore the facts, otherwise if you can't see what a simple scam has been pulled off by the Bitbay & Bob & Co team then you must be very new to this environment.
1145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 10, 2014, 01:33:51 PM
It is proof positive about the sockpuppet army as several of them are posting here and clearly know of bitmarkets, but not a single post about it in the official thread.

Sad that this turned out to be what it is...

James

It's not the first scam we see here, and nothing new in the Bitbay scam: army of newbie nicks of the organizers desperately hypes the coin and a few low-life scumbag like this qawzsx boy, Decentradical, unusualfact and other wankers trying very-very hard ride the waves - which in this case will never come.

On a different subject, good to see you here James, as we unconditionally supported your Vericoin takeover, you own us a few explanations what is happening, so I propose to open a new chapter in that story book, in first step you could explain what's happening with VRC in our unmoderated thread. Thanks, and see you there.

Up until Bay, every coin bob has told us to buy he has pumped and made us a great profit. This time though, bob had us buy up as much bay as we could, which all went right in to bob's pocket.

Thank you for confirming what myself, Barabbas and a handful other users post here from the beginning, that the Bitbay ICO was not the result of a free-market nor legit investment process - it was indeed an insider, desperate pump action in which the majority of the ICO fund was purchased by the organizers of the project, and then now the coin can be dumped at any price to realize the profit.


The few new accounts that you see in the moderated thread that are trying to hype the coin up are all part of our group. They don't believe in bay, they just want bob to pump it.

Thank you for confirming that the army of secondary, third, newbie and puppet accounts role is to create hype and mislead naive, wannabe rich investors, and the army of supporter shills aren't legit investors, but the hype making tools of the low-life, scumbag Bitbay scammers. It was quite obvious anyway, all those newbie nicks just buy, all of them hold, all of them have a long term plan with Bitbay, such communication is the classic attribute of any P&D scams, but still, thanks for confirming it.
1147  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 10, 2014, 01:09:02 PM
What's also missing in the FAQ is Bitbay's monetisation. This is less interesting to the buyers right now but it would clear a lot of fud. The ICO is startup funds, but in the long term I take it that Bitbay plans to survive on the transaction fees for the majority.

Because of the nature of a decentralised exchange it can scale up infinitely without requiring extra funds. If they're on the receiving end of that then all the bickering about the ICO seems really trivial.

I'm only asking because if they make that goal clear then people can be more at ease. This isn't the market cap or the funds that are at stake, it's the prospect of having a venture that's worth billions and generating a revenue that would make the current funds look like a rounding error.

A million is a lot to most people here. But as you've said, it really quite common for start-ups of this calibre.
.

The guy who hired me believes in crypto big time. Hes like a big kid at a candy store. We both know how exciting tech is and i think the monetization is self evident. Pegging was my idea to make it attractive "as a business"...

David, I have just had enough from your denial and dismissal in taking responsibility for your chief role in the Bitbay scam. You have been very civil and professional here in the dialogue with the community as well as in private dialogue, but your refusal to cooperate with the community to bring up all information about the Bitbay scam is unacceptable anymore. I am asking you last time: you must request the Bitbay team to reveal

a) The previous Bitcointalk accounts, current Bitcointalk accounts and real identities of all parties who had any roles in the Bitbay ICO. Your Bitbay team mates volunteered the information to us at the beginning of the ICO that they are long time Bitcointalk account holders, however (as they said) for privacy reason they lunch the Bitbay operation using new BCT accounts. Now, as the scam became obvious for everyone, the community want to know the real identities of your lowlife, scumbag scammer Bitbay team mates.

b) All Bitcoin addresses that have been target/destination of the fund distribution in order to audit the expenditures, allocation and sharing of the ICO fund.

If the Bitbay team refuse to comply with your request, then you simply stop contributing to the process.
At this stage, when it became clear that the operation is indeed a scam your primary ethical responsibility is not to protect the identity of the scammers, but to make up your giant mistake (i.e. your involvement in the scam) by working with the community.

As I said, I had enough from you avoiding to take responsibility for your actions.
1148  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 09, 2014, 12:32:13 PM
I think it is worthwhile to copy here toknormal's post from the official thread as it points out very valid issues with the ICO, and therefore the Bitbay team very likely will delete it.


Quote
How would you have run things better?  I mean, this is a genuine question.

I would have..

[1] -  expressed the IPO as a marketcap instead of a price in the main announcement. This is a more honest expression of the valuation because price is meaningless without taking into account coin supply. It's also what lets investors immediately compare the IPO alongside equivalent marketcap coins which are currently trading

[2] - not mentioned stuff like Alibaba without fully qualifying what the nature of those associations were

[3] - had something working that investors could evaluate before investing (hence mitigating the accusations of "vapourware" IPO)

[4] - been transparent about IPO interim and final capital holders, who they are and given blockchain addresses which could be audited and let investors verify the integrity of the custody chain of capital which they are supplying the project

[5] - launched the IPO at a half million cap at the most (in the absence of any significant completed development work). One of the main problems for this project is that it still has it "all to do". It's jam tomorrow as far as deliverables is concerned but jam today as far as investors money goes. It's somewhat of a step in the right direction to have phased releases of the capital upon completion of certain development milestones, but it's far from being an escrow situation. For a start, what happens if those milestones are not reached - is capital returned to investors ? I doubt it. Do investors have any input over the arbitration of marginal achievements ? No.

If the whole IPO was indeed bought by 3rd party investors it means that north of half a million dollars of investor's money has gone up in smoke. That's no mean sum of money and investors have taken this loss, not developers or other project stakeholders.

Given that fact, I think there is some basis for the FUD which I think would have been mitigated if some of the items above had been paid more attention.



Please ... you are asking too much from the Bitbay team ... none of your sensible and very valid points would be compliant with a classic money collecting party as your points make sense and assumes transparency. Transparency and tricking naive but greedy investors into the operation don't walk hand in hand.

can i buy iphone with this coin Huh

IoT coins are not for buying iPhone  Smiley generally FIAT and digital currencies are accepted as payment for goods and services, but IoT coins act like a token to support IoT operations. All IoT coins like bitbay, tilecoin and gadgetcoin have this philosophy.

The problem is no one want to use any digital currencies to buy iPhone, because using FIAT is more practical and convenient. This article highlights the main issue with digital currencies, namely that even the increasing number of Bitcoin merchants failed to increase the usage of the coin. The number of Bitcoin merchant has been increasing, however Bitcoin usage has been remained the same:

http://www.coindesk.com/analysis-around-70-bitcoins-dormant-least-six-months/

The issue is even with Bitcoin, that only a very limited number of users use digital currencies. Even high market cap coins like NXT or Doge are used rarely outside of their community.

IoT coins could at least introduce a very practical use case by operating devices with a blockchain based software, and that would be a great step to make digital currencies actually useful.

1151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [GDC] GadgetCoin | Smart Contracts on Hardware | IoT | M2M on: December 09, 2014, 04:38:41 AM
I have created a Chinese QQ group: 425068399  to spread this coin information.

Thank you for spreading the word about GadgetCoin, that's really great. China is a very important market for any IoT related applications. We are getting closer to the start and the building of a vibrant community should be one our priorities from now on.

Actually I want to be general agency in China to sell IoT devices it this project succeeds, let's wait and see, many things depend on your  developer team.

We have a clear business plan and the team is in place to execute the plan. This coin will be a success because the software will work, we understand the market and we are realistic about our objectives. The primary target is to operate 10,000,000 million IoT devices on the Gadget protocol by 2020. This amounts to 0.05% of the IoT devices in the world and certainly doable. IBM and large operators will control the majority of the market, but small projects like GadgetCoin will have their place in the market to power a small fraction of the device pool. 0.05% is a very small portion of the whole IoT market, but even a small market share like this will result in a fantastic return for GadgetCoin holders.

It's a great idea to have the community members actively involved with the sale of the technology. We will PM you soon with more details about starting the cooperation and setting up the operation in your region.



Eager to the delivery of this project, if it works well and better than current solution on IoT, it will have a big market and I have resource to sell IoT devices in China.

Any solution is better than the current ones as there is no current solution that offer a simply to use generic IoT platform - that's why IBM is keen to enter this market. Projects like TileCoin and GadgetCoin (and Bitbay once David clean up the mess there) could get their slice from the premature Internet of Things market easily.

I told the GadgetCoin team as well already that I will be happy to sell in the UK & Ireland. I could be wrong, but I totally get the smart contracts on hardware concept. I mentioned the idea to a friend at Jaguar Land Rover, he is a very old school device/firmware developer but he immediately got the idea and he started to describe how smart contracts could help in fleet management (from manufacturer viewpoint) and servicing (real time monitoring) the vehicles. I fully understand what the sceptics of the idea says, that why should I open my garage door with a blockchain application, but device management is more complex than opening a garage door and once real peoples from the industry are interested, plus once IBM is on the deal then we better to pay attention to the Internet of Things area.


1152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 09, 2014, 04:13:47 AM
And Bobsurplus, true to form, sending yet another barrage of minions and sock puppets to give advice to the poor (idiotic) believers who have drunk so much kool-aid he will applaud the "advice" from just-registered newbies... Amazing, simply amazing.

At least 10 newbie puppet nicks were activated to support the scam and create the hype just in the last three days ... and all of them states how cheap Bitbay is, the cheap price (being 60% below the ICO price) is the best thing happened to them ever and of course all of them buys, because these newbie accounts of course must make public that they buy. What happens there is really pathetic. Terms of hype making the Bitbay team and Bob & Co. certainly takes this operation to the next level.
1153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 09, 2014, 02:42:20 AM

Dev must be a moron to sell that way


Except if the organizers of the scam who bought into their own ICO - to create the hype and to attract legit investments - received the money from Bter - which they did as we established here already. So, if they have the BTC why is it irrational to sell it for 120 satoshies when there is a very good chance the price will be 50 sat very soon?

I have one question: Are you sure that Dev is selling own coins?

Part of ICO was scam? Dev bought own coin just for fees? (So he has profi even at 1 sato huh) ? ? ?

I was wondering how it's possible to gain 2500-3000BTC from ICO nowadays when crypto is is depression like never before.....

you can cal it FUD but this is most important question with huge ICO....

I am not sure if you are serious to ask such question, that you are in this environment and you are not aware of the most basic P&D method?

Yes, there is an incentive to buy into your own ICO. That method is about the snow ball effect: once the organizers of the scam create a volume, legit and naive investors think there is a serious demand for the coin and therefore start buying into it, the volume grows which attracts more and more investment. You put 1500 BTC into the ICO, that attracts another 1500 BTC from legit investors, and since the ICO is completed you will receive the full 3000 BTC, plus obviously you get the coins for the 1500 BTC. During the ICO process right hand put money into the left hand to create volume and attract legit investment. Once you have the BTC, any coins (in this case obviously BAY) can be sold at any price. Of course from the scammers viewpoint it is better to sell at 500 sat, but to minimize the risk in this collapsing altcoin market it is probably better to sell it at any price - and that's what is happening right now when the coin is dumped at 90 sat. There is simply no other logical explanation for the magnitude of dump.

As I said many times, David Zimbeck is not a bad guy by default configuration, and as the result of his good side even he, the lead developer can see and acknowledge that his Bitbay team mates pushed this ICO to 3000 BTC and the completion of the money party wasn't a free market, legit process.

I suggest accept the fact that Bitbay is a scam.
1154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 09, 2014, 02:24:24 AM
@altcoinuk, is there any way you can delete these image posts that Mig 23 keeps spamming? I understand you don't want this thread to be moderated, but he is doing absolutely nothing to contribute to the discussion of BAY. Many people have a lot of their bitcoin tied up in BAY, it is a very serious matter. All he is doing is burying relevant posts that actually matter.

I  have opened this thread, but I am unable to delete posts from here. Only the BCT moderator can delete the posts.
Personally I couldn't care less what the supersonic Mig-23 boy and other trolls post here, since I started to use Internet well before these high school boys born I am pretty much resistant to trolls, still you are absolutely right, the posts could be distracting for most users.

In my opinion, we should leave all posts in this unmoderated thread. This Mig-23 air plane boy pushes the Bitbay scam very-very hard in the official thread, he is there 24/7 arguing how great that scam is, then it's not enough for him that we are regularly deleted from the official thread, but he comes here and try to troll this thread. The fact, that one of the prominent members of the Bitbay scam, one of the most desperate hypers try to troll this unmoderated thread says a lot about Bitbay. That's how I see this, but if you don't want to experience with the trolling images you could click on the "Report to moderator" link in his posts and ask the moderator to delete it. Since this idiot Miggy boy brings nothing to the table except trolling I am sure the moderators will delete his posts if you really want they be deleted.

It's a bit like fish. If all the fish in the sea were brought to market at once, there'd be over supply and a price crash. So the fish are brought in a trickle from the sea to market which restricts the supply and buoys the price. So I presume this is the model that's serving as a template here.

My problem with that is that you paid a premium for the fish so that you didn't have to get in a boat and go and net it yourself. On the other hand, these coins are in a wallet. They're already "caught". It's normal for me to be able to send my coins all over the place and dump as many as I like on the market or buy up as many as I like. By synthetically restricting supply to market all your doing is p*ssing off the wallet holder and giving them less functionality than they usually have.


The sea fish supply is a great analogy. Of course it's hypothetical, but what if all sea fish were taken from the sea, but 99.999% of the supply is frozen (as David suggested will be done with his algorithm) and then the supply will be artificially controlled by allowing a small portion to enter to the fish market every day? Would that guaranty the same or even higher price as the current fishing and marketing methods? It would surely guaranty, so I think from strictly logic stand point the pegging could work - given that the demand for the product, the very important element of the process is there and one entity can control the supply.

The main issue with the pegging is that users and customers would simply not accept such complicated and artificially controlled financial product, when their coins are in fact controlled by and organization and the users aren't allowed to sell/buy freely the coins.

As you pointed out very correctly, the low volume of Nubits proves nothing except that once such artificial control is in place then people stop investing in the coin.
1157  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 09, 2014, 12:49:36 AM
Bob is certainly not my boss. Dont ever wanna hear his name.

As posted, indirectly he is. He's the one calling the shots.

Very easy to not being called liar: Don't tell lies. Or half truths.

I dont lie to people get that straight through your head. I'm getting tired of this shit. If you have issues with Bay then take it up with them.

Bob is not my boss indirectly either, hes a bad guy and i dont want to hear his name again.

David, all due respect and with the best intention I am saying this: it's time you start listening Barabbas and take seriously the shamble you navigated yourself into, because whatever your intention was you are the face of the Bitbay project. We understand your limited development  role in the operation, but still, most of the legit investment was made into Bitbay because of you.

Bob, if he is lucky will end up in jail, if he is less lucky (and this is the most likely scenario for him) he will end up fucked over and over in ass by Russian speaking gentlemen before his head being smashed with a not so sharp hammer. History has proven that one just can't do what he does over a long period of time without being punished. The word is already out about the Bitbay scam within the Russian speaking investor community (the organized mob) that invested via Bitbay on Bter, I already told you this, and you are (most likely unintentionally) in the middle of this mess.

However, you still have (probably your last chance) to save your reputation ... and basically yourself. I suggest you request the Bitbay team to reveal
a) the identities of all parties who received any payments from the 66% transfer of the ICO fund up to date
b) all BTC addresses that involved with the fund distribution (and then the community can verify by asking a small transfer from the addresses who owns what and who is really organizing this scam)

otherwise, if the Bitbay team refuse to comply with your request you just simply stop contributing to the process. Since we both know, and you know very well that the majority of the ICO was bought by your Bitbay team mates, the only ethical action from you could be  to clean up this mess and you should do this with your best of your abilities. I suggest to do this not only to save yourself but save the over scammed altcoin market from this train wreck that is called Bitbay.

@Mig-23

How is the price going Miggy boy? Who is dumping the coin with a 70% loss ... or perhaps there's no loss as the Bitbay team bought the majority of the ICO and now they dumps the coin at any price ... while you few hardcore cheerleader idiots in that thread celebrate the 1 billion $ project.
1159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 08, 2014, 05:37:11 PM

It's a new concept for crypto but governments have been doing it for a while and failing at it, making black markets for their currency.

Say I want out of the coin but my funds are locked in the pegging scheme. I just sell him my wallet.dat and he sends me btc for it. We can use a trusted escrow and presto I have bypassed the pegging.

That's indeed an elegant solution to bypass the pegging. :-)))
1160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitBay | Decentralized Marketplace | Unmoderated Thread on: December 08, 2014, 04:25:04 PM
Altcoin UK

you seemed to have asked earlier for me to make it clear that im not in control of the project finances and details and if that isnt already clear(i thought that was obvious) so of course im not nor did i ever imply not even tacitly.

The parts of the tech end of course were mine and people come to me for tech questions. The fact that im the only public figure makes it a little stressful but im working with it.

In the temperament of things, my time is shifting to pegging Ive just started looking over the c++ source now.

Great David, and unfortunately the fact that you are the public figure will make your life very-very difficult in the coming months - except that you can make some damage limitation by trying to be transparent and in my opinion you are doing the right thing by being transparent.

On the technicality note, actually I am quite interested in the pegging model, I have read the Nubits white paper and while it's not in the league of Buterin of Gavin Wood, and while it's not clear yet whether the pegging could work at all, it's a quite interesting piece of material. Could you please push a public link of the c++ source? I have over a few decades c++ experience under my belt and just as a pure professional interest it would be great to see the implementation details of Nubits.


The way pegging works is like this:
you bought in 1000 coins lets say for one dollar
so 1000=1

So now, i add checklocktimeverify. And using this, i add new mining rules.

One of the rules is, after the fork, everyones funds are forced to do the same thing. If spent, they must lock X% lets for arguments sake say 99.9% of their funds back to themselves.

So the TX would pay to themselves 999 locked for X time. And one coin would be "tagged" as liquid

Now I set $1 buy wall for our new liquid coin.

Mind you, the exchange cannot sell the 999 since its frozen so withdrawing it would get declined by miners. (thus im recommending to the exchange to force withdraws before the force to avoid complex accounting)

If the coin is sold lets pretend its the only liquid coin. So now the guy who bought at $1 will sell at 1.02 for 2% arbitrage.

The cycle continues.

Now I add two more rules.

Because the guy who sold the dollar technically HAS 999 in reserve. So is it frozen forever? No.

Instead, we add rules to how locks must be done on liquid and reserve coins.

One rule will allow for unlocking of reserve coins. And spending anew. (a supply increase)
The rule will respond to variables that the master key sets by sending messages to the client (yes, its centralized at first because users would always choose the path of least resistance)

The rule says "You can unlock your coins now beginning at block X BUT you can only spend X% of them." So now, you can spend lets say 99.9% again.

So the controlled supply increase would allow one more coin in.

Also, there is a rule that goes like this: "Liquid coins from block X need to spend X% Back into a lock"
So that is a supply DECREASE and it effects all coins.

Thus we can do the reverse and force the new coin to lock back.


Control of supply allows for control of price since the walls can be set to managable levels

The reason NuBits doesnt go below is because it cant.

This is my goal to protect investors from the "same old same old" crypto bullshit.

While coin generation by mimicking real world processes like forging (NXT) or mining (BTC, LTC, etc) is vital element of digital currencies, I am not sure that mimicking the lack of supply by putting a trade lock on the coins would work. As I said it is a very interesting idea, and it make sense that if a commodity is not available then the value of the commodity increases, but you are introducing a very new concept by basically taking away from the owners the right of spending the currency. If I own company shares, then it can be sold on the market any time, similarly I have access to my savings account any time, if I have Bitcoin I can sell it any time (the any time sell most of the time is realized with loss, but I still can sell them whenever I want), but if I understand you correctly, you would not allow the sell by placing a lock on the coins, which will be a dramatically new concept that the users would have to accept. The price of a financial product normally is established via trust, and the users would not necessarily trust the system, as they know that once the 99.9% supply is available then the price will crash. Still, very interesting concept, but I am not sure if it could work.

On the implementation details, what would determine when the 99.9% is available and for which users? Does the the master key variable depends on timing, i.e. those coins will be unlocked which are locked for the longest or it depends on activity or what?
