381  Economy / Service Discussion / Why is offering escrow bad? on: August 25, 2016, 12:05:31 AM
I've been offering free escrow in altcoin threads, so that I could build up a trustworthy reputation.

Just today I figured I'd look at my trust scores, since I have provided such service for one trade (two parties, ESP for BTC).

Noticed a bunch of negative feedback regarding my offering of escrow.  Why is this?  These people whom left negative scores haven't even dealt with me - just tarnishing a reputation that hasn't been built yet.


I was curious as to how account buying and selling works, which also caused a bunch of people to leave negative feedback - I could prove this is my account, and was simply curious how this works.  I couldn't sell this if I wanted to, as it is tied to my accounts on other sites (email & contacts etc.):
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1498331.msg15085071#msg15085071

Immediately people jumped on the post, all sorts of accusations:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=543426

Bottom line:  why is everyone so hostile?  I understand this is a dangerous game people play, but I was legitimately providing escrow & would do so again.  I could have ran with the money I held for those two traders - but wanted to build a reputation.  Now what??  I'm just...screwed?  Is this why people buy and sell accounts?

Sorry for the ignorance, but I just don't understand the mindset...

If anyone needs to trade outside exchanges, I can offer free escrow - all I ask for is positive trust.

I've provided escrow for ESP trades, which can be verified by me or the traders themselves.  

Don't risk losing your funds to scammers!

I also have some SYNX for sale, but it's currently on the market.  PM or reply here if someone is interested in buying - but 0.00006 is a bit cheap in my opinion!  Grin

Cheers all


edit:

I just saw a bunch of people posting negative trust on my profile for offering such services.  How else is someone supposed to gain trust around here?

These people that gave me negative scores have never even dealt with me before, so why tarnish a reputation that hasn't been built yet?

Any idea why? I'll try forcing the desktop site, just wanted to let someone know this is happening. Cheers

This is such an obvious answer, it shouldn't even need questioning. You can lose it all gambling, of course it's high risk!

Only if you're a goddamn billionaire playing a few hundred on penny slots for fun, would it be considered low risk

390  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [PRE] [ANN] [LAUNCH] XP | Experience Points SHA256 | Gaming Rewards HUGE on: August 23, 2016, 10:50:38 PM

The system will be plug and play so that any software developer can integrate the XP wallet and use existing API commands to allow
XP transactions to occur in games. All other technology will be developed to meet the demands of future partners and consumers.




XP is built using advanced additions to the basic Bitcoin core which enables people to mine coins using miners and also stake coins using proof of stake. Once you
have your wallet installed all you need to do is receive some coins, therefore it is simply plug and play.


Well...which is it?

I hope everyone realizes how great a promise is being made here, a cryptocurrency platform that plugs in to your console/PC (?) and generates 'XP' from the games you play.  Where would the integration take place?  You'd have to build code so that, for example, your Playstation sees the wallet, then create an interface between the USB wallet - Playstation - Whatever game is being played....and on top of that, create rules on how 'XP' is generated from every action in every game, so that people can't just team up with a friend and kill each other endlessly to farm coins (if there's a rule that allows XP gain for a kill, as an example).  Then different code bases for each platform and each game, all connecting with the main client....

Good luck  Wink

The XP wallet (just like any other coin wallet) is "Plug and Play" and can be run as a server behind a firewall, and secured.

It is up to each developer to implement their own private API to integrate XP into their games, so effectively they will build their own library, which can include;

- maximum XP to be awarded to each player in a game
- maximum XP to be awarded from the game (to all users)
- what, when and how the users will be awarded XP

Ultimately how many XP they award to their players will be defined by;

- the current price of XP
- how many XP are purchased to use in game
- how many XP are available within their wallet

With gaming now firmly in the cloud, it would be quite simple, I am sure, to run a verification server in the cloud which monitors transactions for users, along with the game (and serial code) they play, and then authorise XP transactions based on previous claims or the amount of XP remaining on their platform.

If gaming companies are intelligent they will create a verification server with their own API for their gaming community, along with a server wallet for each game, with an interface that shows people how many XP are left remaining to claim in a game, for example.

It is not for me to define exactly how many, how, or in what method each game studio integrates XP, but it would be good for each studio to share a common platform and code to enable a public API and infrastructure to enable any game studio to roll out their own XP service systems.

So like you said, it is important to ensure that games to not have hacks that enable constant rewards of XP, just for kills, this is not the responsibility of the wallet or coin, but of the developer, and of course by having user registration along with wallet addresses, this will lessen the possibility of hacking XP or stealing coins. I am sure companies such as Valve, Sony, Bethesda and many other companies are more than capable of running in depth gaming tests to integrate XP.

So on that basis, XP is indeed Plug and Play, the layers above the wallet/server are what gaming studios need to define for security, verification/validation and transacting.

Example of Soft Plug and Play
When you download the wallet of a coin and you run the QT;
- the executable is run
- the coin folder is created along with conf file in the roaming/appdata/ directory
- the qt creates an empty wallet with new address
- the wallet connects to the network (without any configuration)
- the wallet downloads the blockchain
- the wallet waits to accept any coins
- the wallet can be totally automated by RPC commands and transactions

In essence this is completely plug and play, where gaming developers only need to be able to leverage two things - remote/cloud wallets , and know users wallet addresses to send coins (tied to gaming accounts).

Hope that clears that up - mobile is a little bit different, but ultimately only requires the same setup. Plug and play my friend, plug and play Smiley

Just popping back in to say thanks for the detailed reply. Best of luck to the development team and coin itself.

Is it too late to join in and help out? If you'd like I can PM you, and offer various ways to help out. Cheers!

Babby's first crypto scam?

That link leads to a twitter page looking like it was created by a tech-illiterate grandpa, 'I promise to make you rich click this artifact-ridden gif and I will message you my btc address. Your btc will power the app! Watch it become a dapp! Now you are rich!'

You have NOTHING to show, no product, no goal, just a shady, 'we'll talk in private'

Great app bro. Why you stop selling 'get rich quick' PDFs?



Oops, my bad. I now understand what you're aiming for here, and will publicly shame myself for such a rash and hasty response to what I thought was a completely different post. (striking my original text instead of deleting it). My apologies - I'll be watching this closely. Might just help out a bit, given more information.

Best of luck.

you just copy and paste scam accusations on new threads everyday. most days you aren't man enough to admit your mistakes and just delete them. glad you aren't being a cunt this time

LOL WUT

I've never deleted a post. Why would I leave this here then?

Don't start shit if you can't back up your accusations.

Now I see d all day removing people's irrelevant steemit spam from bitcoin discussions...

It seems like the only people whom made money on steemit were insiders - posting articles hyping and shilling the coin/platform as a Facebook replacement.

Not to mention it's centralized...despite what they say
