Ok, I understand now. By the way, a little off-topic but Ledger sold +1 million wallets in 2017, It's quite impressive, I couldn't imagine such results already. Samsung, Siemens and Google’s ventures are starting to get interested in the company. (surely with funding, I hope it's going to sell to them lol)

6322  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Facebook makes its own coin, will it be selling in the market? on: July 11, 2018, 03:13:44 PM
It's just a speculative news, nothing more. The truth is Facebook just assigned someone as director of a blockchain department. It doesn't mean at any cost Facebook will create it own coin. And with the latest scandal with Cambridge Analytica I doubt a lot of people will trust their own crypto
6323  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Jumps Above $6800! What might have caused this sudden rise? on: July 10, 2018, 09:50:00 PM
I still think the $ 500 move up or down is normal. "Perhaps the bullish momentum gained from the last days is the reason for this rise." So there is no reason to worry about it. The question is, will this upward trend continue?

Exactly. $500 in a few days is nothing when it's about Bitcoin. We got more than that before. It can even do the opposite if we check today it has lost near the same. It's just a normal up and down like Bitcoin has always got. I am not able to identify a trend showing the market is going to come back

Yes, I know and agree the user interface is not the most important. I was just expecting something better looking and currently, I prefer the old interface. At least we can get rid of the browser extension. I am curious to know, anyone knows why they never built an extension for Firefox?

Use Canva, flaticon, and Pixabay. Even as a newbie to create a logo you can make a lot better than all the logos you listed in your first post.
It's what I am using for logos, social media posts, blog posts... and as a newbie, I make better than this
6326  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZEN] ZenCash: Private, Secure, Resilient CryptoCurrency with zk-SNARKs on: July 10, 2018, 08:41:02 PM
etoque you're seriously confusing decentralized cryptocurrency with the stock option. Is your problem only with the transparency regarding the funds? If yes then, what don't you understand from what dmwardjr told you 3-4 times already? Instead, you are desperately trying to find another argument to discredit Zen
6327  Other / Meta / Re: Disable signatures/bounties til a user reaches full member status. on: July 09, 2018, 09:44:30 PM
Disable signatures-bounties until a user reaches full member rank is not a bad idea itself. It's like saying "you have been a good boy" it could be considered as a reward by allowing members to use their signature space. Sure at the beginning, we will see a lot of posts complaining about this. But basically you don't join a forum to make some bucks, you join it because you're interested to meet people with the same interests as yours.
So someone really interested in crypto will still use the forum no matter if he is able to use his signature space or not, while someone joining just to make some cash but nothing else will leave. The result will be getting targeted traffic/sign up but isn't what is better?

For sure it will hurt the "normal users" who will join the forum to promote their business in their signature (without shitposting/spamming) I am thinking about a blogger, a new coin, service related to crypto or anything else.

Is it really the interface? I laughed when I saw it  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
Sorry but the user interface is ugly, there is nothing special, it even looks like an alpha version  Cheesy It made me think about something done with Bootstrap.
I prefer the old design by far.
6329  Economy / Speculation / Re: Help with research on bitcointalk community on: July 09, 2018, 08:23:37 PM
I am going to be honest with you regarding a few things:

1- A lot of the ANN topics are filled with people managing several accounts and paid to bump the topic. Or most of the post are filled with shitposters posting "great project sir" "awesome project for the moon" etc... They are not posting because they're interested but because there is an incentive behind. It can be a challenge to find real posters in a discussion.

2- Running a signature campaign where users use their signature space to promote the coin and are paid (with BTC or tokens) to post. Or some paid people to bump their topic to get more exposure (as said in 1-) It is something not very welcome here since it generates a lot of spam and  low-quality content (like "great project sir" "awesome project for the moon" etc...)

3- Yes, definitely. members who have been on bitcointalk are usually more focused on technological innovation, they're more "crypto purists" while the majority of members who joined the last 2-3 years, joined only to make some money from campaigns, they didn't know what is a cryptocurrency before, and even after a year they still don't try to learn something about it. The forum is their cash cow

4- a discussion that involves a small number of users usually mean users that are really interested in the project, but an altcoin topic with a small number of users doesn't exist here lol.

5- Can answer to this, sorry

If there is anything we can help, you're welcome to ask us, there is always the light turned ON here Grin

I personally will be very interested to read your research once you completed it, if it's possible
6330  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Today fee of bitcoin transactions is increased on: July 09, 2018, 07:23:01 PM
Nah for me too, I am from "the great" Europe, and transacting with the outside of the Eurozone (but still Europe) is costly. I remember the first time it had cost me more in fee than the transaction itself. It took me three days to figure it out, I even called my bank to blame them and saying they did a mistake. In fact, the charges were well marked on the contract but in a very small size

I think most of us in Europe can send SEPA transfer free of charge, but in my country, they invented a fee some years back. It's called  "account maintenance fee" LOL, of course, there is no maintenance. It's not a lot (~$7 per month) but at the end of the year, you gave it $80-90, when everything's automated now. And I haven't seen my banker since 2012, so I don't use his time. I'm not cheap but with this I can pay 3 months of internet connection unlimited or a year and a half phone plan.

Back to the topic, yesterday and today I did a few transactions, with 3 cents and 10 cents, it all went smooth and got confirmed pretty fast
6331  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: More Regulations For Cryptocurrency? on: July 09, 2018, 06:08:24 PM
We will see more regulations no matter the Bitcoin and no matter its market. It's already taking place slowly. It's up to us to accept it or reject it and raise our voice. Making a currency has no use if in the end it is regulated. Basically, Bitcoin was created to get back some privacy and to be free from governments and banks

anyone use MYZENWALLET.IO

opinionS?

I have a web wallet with MyZenWallet.io. I like it because it"s a simple wallet and it goes straight to the point. No useless things.
I have never got a single problem with it.
6333  Economy / Economics / Re: Wechat money is better than bitcoun? on: July 09, 2018, 05:30:41 PM
Isn't Wechat a Chinese messaging mobile app? If the company has a digital currency or a payment mean then it's centralized yes because a company wouldn't do a decentralized digital currency or a payment mean even as a second activity

Edit: After searching for this service I see it's just a digital wallet, linked to a bank account or Visa/Mastercard card. So you ca not compare with Bitcoin, the same as you can't compare an apple with an orange

Yep

6336  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [Guide] Hardware wallets - which one is a good choice? on: July 09, 2018, 04:28:56 PM
The market for the hardware wallets is still small, there is still a lot to bring. In 10 years there's not that much HW. Even the new ones get a chance, and each could be used more than Ledger and Trezor. It's like saying why anyone would use anything other than Samsung or Apple
6337  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do companies like Apple, Microcoft do not enter the crypto currency market? on: July 09, 2018, 03:46:06 PM
They are not "watching" the cryptocurrency market to see how it goes, they are watching the blockchain technology market. They don't really need to enter in the crypto world other than to accept the customers to pay with Bitcoin. Microsoft did it twice.
The blockchain tech. has much more benefits for them in the long run. Microsoft is already offering solutions with Azure Blockchain as a Service (BaaS) and IBM, as well, has its solution for medium and large companies

6339  Economy / Exchanges / Re: I was manipulated by CEX.IO on: July 08, 2018, 05:14:20 PM
OP,  don't you think it's not right to paste your banking information on a forum like this, any hacker or scammers can get or use it for any fraudulent activities. You can't trust the internet with little informations like this anymore. That being said; I think you should make verifications from your bank,  probably the money didn't reach it destination. A request of a transaction statement may clear the problem.

It's not his/her bank details, he said it's the one given by Cex.io. If the money didn't reach its destination then the funds should be in his account, and if it was the case you couldn't see the users here telling that he is waiting since +45 days. He is not dumb to not notice the funds weren't sent
6340  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What will be the best cryptocurrency in 2018-2019 on: July 08, 2018, 04:58:08 PM
There is Zencash which is undervalued at the moment. It performed very well in 2017 with x10. It started now to recover after the "crypto crash" from January. And with the new class of nodes, it's taking a high interest these days. I can easily see it going to x3 in the short term
