1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: VeChain (VEN) discussion on: January 26, 2018, 01:18:20 AM
some people complain about 1 bilion of total coin supply - i think that is irrelevant for the most part.. what matters is current market cap at the moment of investing..

i mean.. if bitcoin was 21 billion instead of 21 million - people would still have made the same profits putting in the same money (unless they would buy less of them, thinking that they already a lot - which is psychological and it may have some effect, but not as crucial... if you believe in some shares you not gonna go " oh ok I gonna buy 634 of shares " you gonna go "hey i got a 1000 usd free to invest, i will just put that in"

what is relevant on the other hand is what are the fees for using the VEN functionalities (cause that's how basically it is going to be "SPENT") - ie how much will the big companies spend on let say.. every shipment they make from their factory to the assembly and then how much fee for confirming the shipment from assembly to the shop

with bitcoin - we know how much the fees cost - with VEN i have no fu**** clue and can't find that out. anyone?

"on the third hand" ;d even if the fee is low - if hundreds of thousands of multimillion dollar companies in the world start using VEN for tracking their products, shipping number of batches every single day, perhaps that could add up...?

the value of VEN lies in the cost of it's use - I believe.. maybe I am wrong I don't know.. i mean.. if the fee for tracking a shipment from china to europe into the retail store is let say.. 10 dollars in VEN - then the person is gonna buy 10 dollars worth of VEN to track that shipment... they are not gonna spend 20 dollars on something that cost 10, they gonna spend 10 - i hope that is clear Grin

so.. the cost of the fee for the functionality/service will drive the market...

now someone f**** tell me what in hell is that fee ;d

another question is what is it going to be in the future..

thank you
2  Local / Trgovina / [looking for service] help me contact Croatian authorities re fire on: July 23, 2017, 10:54:33 AM
Hi,

I need a favour and I can pay in bitcoin for it 10usd/hour.

Since the current situation in Croatia - lots of areas being on fire, I would like to contact local authorities to try to work/volunteer to help to fight the fires eg. by working with firemans or at any othe position required. Possibly, I would be looking to also get hired and trained long-term.

I am looking for a person who would make few phonecalls, e-mails and ask around how can I volunteer/get hired in Croatia to help with the current fire problem?

I come from Poland and I will be in Croatia for the next few days - but if there is any work/volunteer opportunity I would like to stay here and help.

Please send me a message or reply to this post.

Thank you.

OP, what is your background? Martial arts? Military? Police? Any sort of training? I'm interested in old school, as in, not the ones I see on UFC these days. (And I've watched since UFC 1, more than 20 years ago.) I've also competed in some local MMA, but everything else, I can not really do because my training and practice isn't really "fair" or "competitive".

Few years of boxing.

No, I would not pay for this. Also few comments which made your post look bit suspicious altogether; first of all that screenshot proves nothing. You have yourself written your nickname, 'fightclub' in it and circled it in paint. Anyone can do that for a screenshot they found online.

You also mention 'pouring thousands of euros' in your projects. Now if you use euros as currency, why would you use btc-e as an exchange? Yes, they accept EUR deposits now but not too while ago they only operated in USD. Europeans usually use Bitstamp or Bitfinex.

Lastly it is just ridiculous how you could lose 115 BTC due to 'bad management'. Like, what does that even mean? You tried to make money exchanging and bought high, sold low? You gave them away? You kept them in exchange and got your account hacked? What the hell is 'bad management' in situation like this?

Escrow should answer all your suspisions, unless you are talking about the extra money that will go to building the fight club website..

I have included my nickname in the pics so nobody can say "I found the same picture online, you lied"..

I bought first bitcoins with MtGox as it looked reliable and was the only big exchange I think at that time. Then I transfered them to btc-e when MtGox got DDOS'ed by somebody. I lost half of the bitcoins at that time (from 500 went to 250). Made a "quick" sale when the price was crashing, but it only sold an hour later when the price was the lowest..... Smiley then bought them back at higher price. Btc-e was the second biggest after MtGox...

And your last question. I am a little crazy guy: Some time ago I converted all the bitcoins I had left to litecoins when they were at 14 dollars. I was sure of another litecoin boom. I told myself I either gonna multiply what I have left and become rich as fuck or loose all of it and make it again some other way. Since I was told on many occasions by the freelancers I employed that the projects I was doing are nearly finished I thought to myself fuck it - if I loose the money - I will make it all back when my projects kicks off. You see - Im really confident about their success..

Litcoin gone "dead" since then - dropped to 1-2 dollars.. I  had to sell them as I had loans to pay every month and I thought to myself - I will just pour all I got into my projects and finish them at last before I run out of money. If I did finish them I would not care much about how much money I lost, cause I knew Id make shitloads cash in the future..

The projects turned out to be far from finished, opposing to what the coders that I employed say and to what my business partners say, who were also the coders in one of the projects. In one case the freelancer gave up as he was incompetent to finish it properly and every next person I employed was basically rewriting stuff over and over again... It is my fault for listening incompetent people, trusting them, not taking preventive steps etc etc... I could talk all night about what I have learnt from it..

Now you might think im stupid and Id agree with you.. Im the biggest idiot in the galaxy when I think about it.. but at the same time I have learnt a lot about what not to do and I learnt more about myself. It was a painful but great experience. Now I am going to use it not fail again.

Here is a pic of one of the projects, a cryptocurrency exchange we were building and run out of the reseources http://puu.sh/nAuw9/91a27da0f1.png , didn't want to post it but fuck it.. You will not find this exchagne anywhere online so I hope it somehow shows that I am not talking bulshit.

Nope, I don't think you know me. I have been to bitcoin conference in 2013 or 2014 in london, thats about all of my activity in this community.

Hi.

Id like to ask you guys if you would like to see some action - like seeing me fighting with another guy of my size for some bitcons? If you donate me 2 bitcoins or so, through escrow, I will record my fight and upload it on youtube for you. I will be happy to accept any sponsorship Smiley

The reason I am asking is I used to be high on bitcoins http://puu.sh/nyAqI/0597da1254.png but i lost it all due to bad management.. I blame my depression. Now I need to get some capital to get back into the game. By game I mean creation and finishing of my bitcoin projects that I poured thousands of euros into before I lost ALL of my capital.

Any extra bitcoins will go into creation of a website fight-club style, organising, streaming fights. Id like to add a functionality of betting to it as well Smiley

What you guys think? Let me know. If you help me run this project I promise to deliver you some good show with some surprises as the time goes by..
