Some investments have a reinforcing merit loop - when price goes up/down, the fundamentals of the investment get better/worse as a result.
Cryptocurrencies do have this, to a great extent.
Also some investments have a reinforcing fold loop - when price goes up/down, the propensity of the investment folding totally decrease/increase.
Here one must exercise wisdom:
- If the company in question is dependent on financing, for instance, its stock price crashing may easily prevent both equity and debt financing, resulting in bankruptcy (and win for the vultures).
- XMR is not a stock and does not have costs nor debt which need to be serviced. It can hardly be destroyed merely by crashing its exchange rate. Both XMR and BTC prices have already been decimated to 1/10 of their prior peak levels, both are still alive. Both borrowing and lending for short selling is quite a risky proposition if the ultimate goal - destroying the asset - is not achievable.
Not sure if thats true for Bitcoin, because of Mining. If the price crashes to low (and stays there for a longer period) miners will leave which in return means that transaction takes longer to confirm - bitcoin doesnt adopt to huge(!) hashrate-swings fast (this is even worsen through the fact that less blocks are found). This raises the risk for doublespents (or similar attacks eg timewarping) as old mining equipment would be cheaper to buy. if someone acquires to much he could attack. (Monero mitigates that risk by using a GPU/CPU algo which shouldnt be much better on an ASIC) |

Mein Senf dazu: Trezor: http://www.amazon.de/TREZOR-Hardware-Bitcoin-Wallet-Schwarz/dp/B00PCMY322/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1444909615&sr=8-1&keywords=trezorWenn man öfters Transaktionen tätigt und diese sicher sein sollen. Paperwallet: Am besten in einen Safe einschliessen. Dank MultiSig kann man einen PrivateKey auch auf mehrere Zettel verteilen und getrennt lagern. Meiner Ansicht nach die beste Methode um grössere Mengen über einen längeren Zeitraum sicher zu lagern. Physical Coins: Ich sehe die eher als Sammlerstück wenn man was schönes in der Hand halten möchte. Meiner Ansicht nach ist zum nutzen ein Trezor und zum "lagern" ein (oder mehrere) Paperwallet/s besser. Es hängt halt immer davon ab wieviel Bitcoins man hat und wie sicher man sich fühlen möchte. Ich habe eine kleine Summe in Bitcoin-Core und vor längerer Zeit was in ein PaperWallet verschoben (Dies rühre ich jedoch noch ein par Jahre lang nicht an). Hin- und wieder nutze ich auch Online-Wallets (Immer darauf achten das man welche nutzt die Deinen Private Key nicht haben und alles Clientseitig errechnen): Aber nur für Kleinstbeträge. Was ich schön finde ist, das obwohl ich nur kompliziert Bitcoins vom Paperwallet "abheben" kann, ich jedoch problemlos jederzeit was dorthin schicken und mir den Kontostand anzeigen lassen kann. |

I think there is a pretty big difference between lying about something that gives you an advantage when you are believed and lying about an immaterial fact when the truth to such fact does not impact the outcome of anything material.
I think lying is lying. Regardless if you lie about being banned, or if you lie about not being a particular member. (Both which you did) I suppose only a psychopath would feel that lying is OK.... You have never been asked if you have a piece of gum by someone who you did not wish to give away a piece of gum, when you in fact were in possession of a piece of gum?..... thats the difference: if you dont want someone to give a piece of gum to: be a man and tell him the reason. lying is bad. always. it doesnt help either: not even in the case you mentioned, because he will ask you again...and so you have to keep lying. and if he see you a few minutes later given a gum to a nice girl its much worse for him. |

i know how you feel: have been through that. i cant say anything but: best wishes to you!
regarding social life: give it a chance...i dont want to hurt you, but maybe you find one that suffers the same or similar? this has helped me much in the past...
and btw this is the wrong forum. to many sociopathic assholes which only care about money.

Wipe the OS clean and re-install. You'd need the Win 7 Dvd for that but that's the best way to clean up nasty viruses that just won't leave.
Im hoping that is the last resort, since she cant find her original box where the CD would have been.... Ive been reading of possibly trying to delete the virus manually but i dont want to accidentally make the situation worse. IMHO reinstalling is your best option. and make a full-system-backup afterwards. this is possible with microsofts integrated backup. they allow to reset the system to this state if something bad happens again |

Hello people, just wondering why everyone eventually put everything on VOD ?
i mean there is a blamevod thread on him......whatsoever i see people use his name on literally every off-topic poll or question.
scammers dislike him because he calls them out... ...others (like me) blame him as a joke (to be clear: i dont blame him at all. i am thankful for his work) |

 i like her dad.. keep her! i have answered the security concerns to myself: bitcoins allows me to be my own bank. but that means i am self responsible for my mistakes. its not possible to hack the blockchain though: but it is possible that your pc is hacked and somebody stole your private keys. if you put a bigger amount in bitcoin the following rule apply: dont put all eggs in one basket (eg use multiple paper wallets, store a wallet on an usb stick, if you have an offline pc: use it) |

As i said it was reprogram its up to you to decide. My bot is safe trust me.  define safe if you say "safe bet to loose all in the end": you are right...its just not possible to win in a casino long-term and trust you: hmmmm...no |

Nobody cares. Nobody even know that one pool today does not process transactions to/from some set of addresses. It was debate, thats i. Bc is digital cash, cash is free to move. Wh btc blaclists then i go full prO LTC LTC is the same as BTC. if bitcoin ever goes with blacklisting (i dont think or hope so) LTC will be next shortly after |

there is no such thing as a safe bet...
999dice is a proven scam
there is NO WAY that "double after loosing some" will make you money in the long run

they cant use alt-account: that would be ban-evading.
but you are right, that they dont need a forum account et al to create and manage a campaign. but IMHO they wont get that much users without forum visibility which might help a bit
i meant they could get approval from 'x' service provider to run the campaign, and with the intent to be lazy as fuck, create an alt account or buy a cheap one to manage the campaign, and if they decide to do so, they can use a vpn, whatever to hide the link between the alt and main account. that way, if the campaign was deemed to be poorly managed, the alt account would suffer the ban instead of the manager's main one. i dont think its that easy for them... imagine primedice gets banned: i would ban their primary primedice account as well: this would serious affect their business as well. i know this would be a paradigm shift (treat businesses as a person): but law outside of the forum usually works that way |

Temp banning them is exactly what I've suggested. More temp bans need to be handed out to the users on their campaigns too until they get the message. And being a lazy campaign manager might not be against the rules but but spamming poor quality posts which they encourage is and do nothing to stop. A rule can always be added that if people can't run a campaign effectively then there will be punishments. Regardless, these campaigns are still being a nuicance and nuicance users are usually banned. If a user signed up to this forum and created a thread that said they were going to pay users to post crap all over do you think they wouldn't receive negative feedback or be banned? No difference here really. The signature campaigns like yobit and secondstrade are causing a significant mess and it's unfair on everyone. Signature campaigns could actually improve the post quality of the forum if campaign managers only accepted and paid users who made decent posts and there are some campaigns that do that but it's futile ultimately when the users that don't get accepted or paid for their posts just go to a campaign like yobit and secondstrade that will pay them for any crap they post.
its spelled "nuisance" btw, and that aside, banning the campaign managers, i feel, might be ineffective to some extent; they could use alt accounts to manage campaigns, and they dont even have to be able to post to 'manage' the campaign if they get banned; all they have to do is be able to count posts and punch in numbers to send payouts. i think simply being more stringent on what qualifies as a constructive post might do better; hand out more bans and raise the bar a little bit. of course, there is also the option of going as far as to ban the campaign entirely by banning any user that wears 'x' campaign's signature, but it would never come to that given the current "rules." they cant use alt-account: that would be ban-evading. but you are right, that they dont need a forum account et al to create and manage a campaign. but IMHO they wont get that much users without forum visibility which might help a bit |

why dont ban (tempban) lazy campaign managers until they fix and enforce their rules
because managing a campaign poorly isnt against the forum's rules; theyre not breaking a rule so there are no grounds for a ban. ok, i change my question: why arent the forum rules changed to tempban sigcampaigns which dont check forum posts |

An user of the italian section (Anon39) suggested to prohibit campaign that pay for post, and allowing only campaigns that pay a fixed value every month.
I'm not sure if this is the solution, but it can be a good improvement.
It must be also forbidden to compel the user to write a minimum of posts.
Fixed rate campaigns do cause less spam for sure but it's more about who runs the campaign and whether they're doing their job or not. Pay per post campaigns like yobit and secondstrade do cheapen the place because their companies do nothing apart from pay spammers automatically without checking posts and it gets worse everyday because they then tell their friends they can get free bitcoins for posting crap and the knock on effect continues on. It would be hard to enforce people to only pay fixed rate though and even fixed rate can be abused if there's no one actually managing their campaign. What we actually need to do is put more pressure on the lazy campaign managers to do what they're supposed to and if they can't get on top of it there will be consequences ie bans. why dont ban (tempban) lazy campaign managers until they fix and enforce their rules |
