Thank you for your opinion it was helpful and I courageously introduced the password, I logged with succesfully and move the amount with any problems, but it looked like a phishing.

No, most probably, you were NOT on a phishing website. The "Additional Password" (mostly known as Secondary Password) has been present on Blockchain wallet for years; even though you've successfully moved your funds out of that account, I'd still recommend you to keep that Secondary Password pinned to your account (if you've not already done that) and write it down somewhere so that you may not forget it again in future. An additional security layer always helps!
He knows.

But the "Additional Password" is only necessary when you want to move your funds. It shouldn't show up when you're logging in.

I'm quite sure that I'm not on the wrong/fake website:



It used to be only for transferring funds (probably since the launch of the blockchain.info?), but for the last few weeks/months, I've been facing it at the login stage as well.

#Bitcoin IS going to zero.

Somewhere between 5 and 7 zeros!

No, he's right. Bitcoin IS going to zero. We just don't know how many years from now. Roll Eyes

Yes, it'll go zero, but after taking over the world. Something will replace bitcoin in the future, just like bitcoin is replacing fiat right now (HODL BTC till it actually replaces fiat!).

After all, it's all about evolution...

Today March between Pakistan vs New Zealand looking  interesting because of of because of both teams are doing well the New Zealand give a target of 266 to Pakistan but they have loss quick kids wickets in single over, let's hope now Pakistan doing better I think Pakistan need good partnership to win the this match.
Right now Shoaib and Imam doing good recovery as these both put 62 runs in just 13.2 overs if they can able to stay on crease for some more time then surely its going to be very interesting match otherwise its New Zealand is going to take lead in this series very easily good and spirited play by visitors.

edit: Imam lost his wicket now New Zealand is favorite to win this match.

New Zealand defeated Pakistan easily in this one. IMO, if the partnership between Sarfaraz and Imad had continued till the end, the result would have been different. The top-order of Pakistan totally collapsed today, and this is the 12th consecutive ODI loss of Pakistan against New Zealand. Pakistan needs to focus more on ODIs and Tests; they've been indulged too much in T20 format for the past few months. Roll Eyes

2406  Other / Serious discussion / Bitcoin (and smart contracts) in 1996? on: November 05, 2018, 08:24:24 PM
It seems funny (and weird at the same time). The idea of bitcoin, "THE CRYPTOGRAPHY OF ANONYMOUS ELECTRONIC CASH", was initially introduced by the National Security Agency Office of Information Security Research and Technology.

Check out this document dated October 31, 1996: http://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/classes/6.805/articles/money/nsamint/nsamint.htm

(it's funny to see that most of the provided references in the document belong to David Chaum, who seems to be very busy these days with his upcoming blockchain project "Elixxir", exciting days ahead!)

THAT'S NOT IT!

Look at this: http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/rob/Courses/InformationInSpeech/CDROM/Literature/LOTwinterschool2006/szabo.best.vwh.net/smart_contracts_2.html

The smart contracts were also well-defined by Nick Szabo in 1996. Is Nick Szabo the creator of bitcoin?

The real question is, even when all the documentation was present, why the hell it took cryptographers/programmers so long to develop "bitcoin"?

What is more? They keep developing, so I am sure they will release wallet

You can already use Yoroi (if you want a light-weight wallet) or Daedalus (if you want a complete blockchain wallet) to store your ADA.

2 More loan buttons on huge websites, 
gain 6.5% interest on your stablecoins 
Tusd added

That's interesting, have they launched the support for TUSD along with USDT? If so, that's very good!

Nexo should actually consider adding other "good" stable coins as well, and particularly the ones having a good company-backed background (like Gemini Dollar, Paxos Standard Token and Circle's USDC). Right now, if for any reason, the Tether crashes, then it'll be disastrous for Nexo as they've provided people with the loan ratio of 1 USD:1 USDT, and in return, if later on the Tether loses its parity, the people will give Nexo back <1 USD:1 USDT, which would be a pure loss for Nexo!

The last match of Pakistan vs. New Zealand T20 series is about to begin with Pakistan deciding to bat first after winning the toss (yes, another toss win for Sarfaraz! He has been so lucky with the toss for the past few months). Pakistan has made one major bad change ("a blunder" would be more appropriate IMO) by selecting Usman Khan Shinwari in the place of Shaheen Afridi; I never like the performance of Usman.

I mean they have won the series, They have got nothing to lose. Why not try the bench?

Pakistan won this one quite easily and completed their yet another series clean sweep; awful performance by New Zealand team yet again. Winning by 47 runs in a T20 match is not something common, it's actually a very good margin.

Usman Khan's performance was fine, still no big improvement though.

As we make our way through Q4 2018, based on what has been seen among altcoins such as development, innovation, security, real-world use cases, and plans for the next year, what altcoins do you think will be big in 2019?

2019 is going to be a very exciting year for Cardano. Decentralization and PoS (Ouroboros Proof-of-Stake Algorithm) is planned for the first quarter of 2019. Moreover, stuff like sidechains (which will enable scalability), BLISS signature scheme (for making Cardano so-called "quantum-proof"), etc is all planned for the year. The marketing will be focused as well after the second quarter (by that time, most of the stuff will be ready-to-use), and that'll include the release of ADA-based Debit Cards as well for daily-life usage of ADA.

Pakistan won the match by 6 wickets and with 2 balls to spare which also means they won yet another T20 series which I believe makes it 11 T20 series wins in a row which is amazing. I just wonder how many more series they can win before a team beats them?

Yeah, that's an official world record now. No team has won this many series consecutively.

Well, Pakistan vs. South Africa T20 series will begin in February, and it'll probably be another easy series win for Pakistanis. I'm expecting this series winning streak to go on for another year. Wink

Getting Cocky Eh?? Tongue I mean SA has got a good t20 squad. Beating them in their backyard will be a challenge tho. If they come on top against SA, ICC should make Pakistan Play against India. I believe only Team India Can stop their streak. They have this habit of losing against them. I mean the last time Pakistan played a series against India it was way back in 2012. It's been 6 years they have faced each other in a series. It's time Cricket fans got one again.  Grin

Cocky? Well, to get an answer to that we need to have a match between those two while PCB-BCCI dispute has always remained a hurdle. The cricket can actually play a key role in getting the peace talks between the two countries, but it seems like that it's not going to happen anytime soon, sadly. Roll Eyes
2415  Other / Serious discussion / Mass (kilogram) vs. other base units - see why "kg" just doesn't make any sense! on: November 03, 2018, 09:43:32 PM
Probably one of the best Twitter threads I've ever read:

https://twitter.com/MaxFagin/status/1058062597121929216

After reading it all, you'll find it pretty strange that we've been using a unit of mass which is actually not perfect. For example:

-one second = the time it takes an electron in a cesium-133 atom to oscillate 9,192,631,770 times (a constant),
-one meter =  the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second (another perfect constant), etc.

BUT the one kilogram is surprisingly equal to the mass of a physical artifact stored in a vault in France (called the International Prototype Kilogram, the IPK); I'm finding it hard to believe:



This thing is not constantly remaining the same! See the reason here. The mass of 1 kg is literally losing its mass over time!

Kilogram never made any *good* sense but we've been using it for hundreds of years, just like fiat never made any sense but is still being used even after all this time. Roll Eyes

It's not all about scalability; otherwise, coins with the capability of handling thousands of transactions per second wouldn't be placed at 500+ rank (by marketcap) right now.

i would agree, but do you know such of an exemple?

Trezor Model T (Version 2.0.8 [est 29.10.2018])

>Cardano support

Source: https://wiki.trezor.io/Roadmap

Seems like official support for Cardano from the Trezor Wallet is coming up tomorrow (29th October, 2018).
Today is the first of November.
How about the real result of the promised release from Trezor Wallet (official support for Cardano)?

Well, you can use Trezor (+ADA) right now with Cardano Model T through https://adalite.io/app (an update of firmware from https://beta-wallet.trezor.io/ will be required though).
