Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good ICOs should be protected from dump

I personally have nothing against all items except KYC. it’s not because I don’t want to throw off the scammers, but because I don’t want to send my personal data. now very often this data is used for other purposes and can be sold
KYCing anything here is horseshit. Your data will be sold and stolen, period. It brings absolutely nothing positive to the space. Scammers and launderers will simply use the identities of others to get their "airdrops" and whatever. And the legitimate people KYCing will get bent over backwards and plowed from behind. If you submit your data anywhere other than highly trusted exchanges, especially for the laughable pocket money that comes from airdrops and bounties, you're too naive to survive in this space. P.S. If you want "dump protection" try buying some bank stocks.

I don't need privacy when shopping for groceries,
oh but you might I can imagine any number of scenarios where a hostile lawyer being able to enter one's historical receipts for beer might be unwelcome. I don't see it. And not only because the transaction details on the bank account only show the lump sum paid for groceries with no details regarding individual items.

$120 is more than enough for a network specially disigned for micropayments.
Main chain will be great for medium to large transactions.
Lightning is for low, micro to sub-Satoshi payments.
I've already seen this a couple of times, how can you go sub-satoshi? When you close the channel and go back to the main chain, you're forced to round to whole satoshis of course, but while the funds are in the LN, accounting is in subunits (might be millisatoshis if I'm not wrong). Round up or down? Any way this could create non-existent corn? (Probably not, but sure sounds like it and I'd like to hear why it is not so.)

[...] super rare event that I use cash at all.
It is unfortunate how little financial privacy is valued these days, which is (currently) Bitcoin's Achilles heel as well. Very much encourage any privacy improvements in layer two solutions and side chains. I don't need privacy when shopping for groceries, at least for as long as there isn't a service that offers money for your data (e.g. at point of sale or while browsing the web). When I need privacy I make sure I have it.

Answer me HONESTLY this simple question:
What has more probabilities of a 10x in the next following years Bitcoin or silver?
I've already stated that I'm worried if there will be any type of economy left to spend metals in when the Jewish, usury debt bubble implodes. There might just be martial law or global Venezeula. Bitcoin will definitely be completely useless. Odds of some sort of a cyclical dark age are pretty damn high. Civilization is overly-complex, overly-specialized, and lacking redundancy on a local level. When an overly-complex system collapses, it does NOT magically shift into an even more complex one like craptocurrency. There will either be a hard landing and a dark ages, a hard landing and back to metals as money, or the typical Jim Rickards and others style claim that the system will go bust, they immediately initiate a new Bretton Woods, and right then the price of gold instantly goes from what it currently is to $10-80k with silver also at some astronomical number and life goes on. I do not see any circumstance in which the system goes bust and bitcoin is in any way usable or has any type of value. Metals are the Schelling point of money and what receive all the wealth transfer from, not shitcoins. There are also massive govts equipped with nuclear weapons like Russia and China who have already cast their vote and it's metals as well. The only people attempting to push digital shitcoins are the Jewish occupied, western govts (who are being defeated left and right) with evil kikes like Larry Summers telling people to buy them (for their own good of course and definitely not some ulterior motive). Nobody fucking uses metals to pay for anything. I throw most my coins away because they clutter up the wallet. And that's in the super rare event that I use cash at all.

Heres a good question for the WO: Who uses automated trading tools and which ones?
I wouldn't trust any bought automated trading tools (not just because of potential backdoors or keyloggers). Selling them implies that whoever made them doesn't know what the fuck they're doing. If the bot was any good it'd only be a matter of time until they'd be filthy rich, so giving others access to it would eat into their profits. Hence, if you can buy it it's fucking garbage. Don't bother. If you want one and are rich enough to afford it hire a team of nerds and lawyers. If you're broke, become a nerd yourself and write your own. If you don't like either of these options, just forget it.

That is nearly ridiculous logic that you are citing there, mic. Get your team to help you to see the light. Recall that in September 2017 bitcoin was in the midst - and even tail end of a bull market, and currently bitcoin seems to be in a bear market, so the price dynamics, and therefore momentum, are much different. You're right, if we can have a similar effect right now as we had in September 2017 (despite the bull market at the time) we'll be having a much more violent bull run through 2019! Weeeeee Disclaimer: I do not know what the fuck I am talking about. This is not investment advise Or is it.

According to CoinMarketCap:
Last 24h Volume (overall): $25,339,041,596
Last 24h Tether Volume: $6,603,357,495
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Tether use to have a lot more dominance in overall volume till a few months back?
Currently, only about 25% of the total USD 24-hour volume belongs to Tether.
Lots of new and active stable coins could explain that.

Ack! Just looked at the price 1 hour ago...now it is going down...damn it....it's all on me...Ack!
(just don't look, it is always a trap!)
Something to say for 'blissful ignorance' and don't look at BTC price for 5 years, just think of all the angst I would have
lessened in the last 1/2 year alone!
Well, at least you don't REALLY need to look at the price anymore... You have been able to retire early. You have already cashed out enough to carry you until you receive your state retirement, social benefits, plus private pension plan. You still have a stash bigger than most guys here. You made it FFS! Just stop always seeing the glass half empty and enjoy your well deserved retirement, bro! Retirement is severely overrated. Most people are bored to smithereens and/or become idle. In fact, being active in your 60ies probably extends life (for man). I have seen older men declining really fast once they stopped working. Somehow, this is not true for females, who often stay successfully retired for much longer. I am almost fully certain that your lifespan depends heavily on your will for life. So if you retire with no other goals left, you'll quickly deteriorate and move on to the afterlife.

Are we starting to see people FOMO'ing?
Have no fucking idea. I am with my date tonight and I am confused where should I concentrate more my btc or naked girl laying beside me. Lets look at this mathematically: 0 BTC + 1 Naked Girl Now = 0 BTC + 1 Naked Girl Later (maybe) X BTC + 0 Naked Girls Now = X/2 BTC + X² Naked Girls Later So let me get this straight, if I get half a BTC now but no naked girls, I'll have a quarter BTC and a quarter naked girl later?

If there's zero friction to transfer it, it's because no actual value was transferred in the first place. You can't email a house, a bar of silver or gold, a drumstick, or anything that has any real type of value at all.
You are factually wrong. You can email the construction manual for a successful trading algorithm, any sort of machinery, or any other type of intellectual property that can and often is much more valuable than any of your examples. The friction exists in the security of the transfer itself and is paid for by miners in the form of electricity, hardware, rent, risk of default, etc. and those who buy their coins and pay transaction fees. Another example that offsets your nonsensical argument is saffron, or drugs. Tiny amounts can be transported across the globe with great ease. Yet they are vastly more valuable than gold per unit of weight.

infofront is right, it is a possibility 3000 or 2900 and it goes up. I hope to see the Toxic2040 graphic the shorts are increasing
img -snipped-
I appreciate the mention but my doodle's are sort of like my baking possibly...looks great at 10+ feet. Plenty of better chartist's around. snip None of the kid's' could figure what this was...oh well. My Trump in the lower left above didn't go ever so well either. pins ------------- As Marcus mentioned, we are now at or approaching positive ROI for mining again. Seems good to me. I think we will see the price consolidate in this range for the next few days or so. Happy Holiday's everyone. #stronghands Nice scotch cookies. I'd eat them. +1 WOsMerit (someone please)
