I think we're about to get something very interesting related to ADA (and a few other coins) in Samsung:

1882  Other / Serious discussion / Why aren't pilots afraid of "Bermuda Triangle"? on: March 09, 2019, 11:39:33 PM
For those who don't know about the Bermuda Triangle:

The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle or Hurricane Alley, is a loosely-defined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

It sounds scary - even if it's just a part of ancient stories. Recently, two of my relatives had a flight from Orlando, but after checking the route of the flight, they literally canceled it and got a refund for it. Why did they do it? Because of the "Bermuda Triangle". It seems like it still makes people afraid of passing through it.

However, interestingly, there's a lot of active air traffic 24/7 through this triangle:

https://www.flightradar24.com/25.19,-72.38/5

If passengers are still (to a little extent) afraid of it, why aren't the pilots/airlines? How can they just ignore all of this and travel through such a scary place?

The 0x protocol allows orders to specify a fee recipient address, as well as a takerFee and a makerFee. When the order is filled on the exchange contract, the feeRecipient gets paid the makerFee + the takerFee in ZRX. This allows relays like Ethfinex and Radar Relay to only include orders in their order books if the orders include a fee for the relay.

That means in order to use a relay like Ethfinex or Radar Relay, you'll need to have ZRX to pay the fees. That means you'll need to buy ZRX to use the relays. Good thing also that I'm currently into my research about the upcoming cryptoexchange platform named Bitrus, which by the way aims its future investors to send their remittances through their cryptoexchange system.

The flip side of this, however, is that relays probably won't want to sit on ZRX for very long. As soon as they receive ZRX as fees, they'll post trade orders offering the ZRX back up in trade. Hopefully relays will be pretty competitive in terms of fees, so if ZRX is expensive they'll lower their required fees, and if ZRX is cheap they'll raise their required fees. While I think that use in relays is likely to set a floor for the value of ZRX, I'm not convinced that those floors are as high as the current price, which is based solely on speculation.

Historically, whenever ZRX got two consecutive green weeks, it pumped real hard. If ZRX could remain green for another two days, it'll be a huge buy signal:

Bitcoin: Crypto investors 'think they can get rich quick'

https://www.bbc.com/news/business-47483068

Interestingly:

Quote
Despite the hype, very few people actually put their money into this kind of unregulated investment, according to the Financial Conduct Authority's research. Its findings suggested:

>Only 3% of those asked in the FCA's survey had ever bought cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin
>Those who do buy cryptocurrency tend to spend less than £200
>Just one in 100 people who have not done so said they would in the future
>Cryptocurrency is primarily understood by men aged 20 to 44, but 73% of all those asked said they could not define it

I'm glad that... it's just the beginning! Wink

Urgent Announcement: Terms of Service & Identity Verification Requirements

The key information which needs the most visibility is that US users will need to supply verification of their identity (KYC) and all users will need to accept our terms of service before March 7, 2019 (UTC 0:00).



An attractive offer for new coins:

Bounties have never appealed to me. I thin there are better uses fr your time, and your signature - nt that I'm making the most of mine

I personally know someone who:

>participated in (BTC) signature campaigns right here at Bitcointalk forums during 2014-17.
>invested all of the rewards of the signature campaigns into some very low-cap coin in 2017.
>made almost a million in December 2017 bull run from that coin and *completely* cashed out.

He played quite a gamble, and now he's enjoying his life.

Conclusion: signature campaigns might make you rich in the future if you have some good luck; they're not so bad!

Good to see that you guys aren't giving up even after the unexplainable decision of Binance to delist CLOAK. There are literally uncountable coins listed on Binance which have absolutely no development going on, and CZ isn't de-listing them. It seems like he wants to create an atmosphere similar to "Might is always Right!" in crypto. Roll Eyes

Well, he's the one who created this thread, so he might be one of the official support team members. However, IT'S NOT RECOMMENDED TO CONTACT HIM THROUGH PERSONAL MESSAGES; no one should do that, otherwise we might get to see another (scammy) drama here.

This is my top four prediction for 2019 so far (If the top miss then the 2nd top may win):

India
Australia
England
South Africa

My top four:

>West Indies (I really liked the way they played their recent ODI series against England - it was simply superb!)
>England
>Australia
>India

One more epic fail from JS



Simply disgusting!

Never ever going to buy Tron or any token based on Tron's shitchain.

What the ....? Did I miss sth?!

I'll try to summarize why I think that he's a complete troll.

Justin thinks that Tron is successful because in his opinion:

>creating spam transactions across TRON blockchain makes it more popular than Ethereum.
>distributing a little amount of TRX across different addresses makes it more active and decentralized than Ethereum.
>copy/pasting the code of old dApps to the new ones (ultimately increasing the total number of dApps) makes it more useful than Ethereum.
>creating fake (spammy) commits at Tron's Github makes it more developed than Ethereum.
>having more followers at Twitter than Vitalik is equivalent to having more followers of Tron than Ethereum.

...and don't forget "Today I announce that tomorrow I'll make an announcement!", plus "Better white paper writing capability (Ctrl+C + Ctrl+V much higher efficiency than keyboard typing new content)".

The activity of Tron's blockchain is literally filled with 80% bots and 20% actual users.

Good news, the read-only website is now live:

Update: The read-only site is now live. The holding balance from the 14th Jan is pre hack and we will be using these holdings as a baseline for calculating rebates moving forwards.

A new update posted on Cryptopia's official Twitter:

Update: We were aiming to get the site live today however, we have had a slight delay and are aiming to have the site live tomorrow. We will keep you updated as this progresses.

Long Cryptopia, short Binance DEX!

hold your horses. they still need to recover from a 10% loss of deposits. and we'll see how much of the user base is willing to stay! surely there will be a run for the exits when withdrawals are opened. i hope they can survive it.

i also saw this post today which is extremely troubling. it's not confirmed (could be totally false) but if true, it indicates a serious bug in cryptopia's automated withdrawal system. that's scary to see right as they are relaunching after a hack!

I seriously hope that they've figured out a suitable solution for that bug. Lips sealed

@Usman Shinwari is on target for Kings just 7 balls and 2 wickets look like Multan players mentally out of this league body language is also not good and Kings also in attacking mood as they still have chance for qualifiers.
I am not sure what Malik is doing. Whats the point to score a 50 wasting 75+ balls (hypothetically)? It's a T20 and the power play was just wasted. They scored 36 runs by losing 2 wickets. Shame.

Hah, yes, I totally agree with you. Shoaib Malik played an awfully slow inning yet again in this match, just like he did in previous matches of this tournament. This behavior of the Sultans captain is the reason why the team is at the bottom in the ranking right now, simply awful.

Sultans are done with about 17 overs and have succeeded in scoring a mere hundred till now. Kings are probably going to win this one!
