Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can exchanges steal my ether

The title of the thread is very vague. But I will attempt to answer completely. All exchanges can steal your ETH as long as they are in possession of its private key. A centralized exchange like Binance, you just have to trust them not to steal your coins because its their private keys, not yours.
While decentralized exchanges can be spoofed and phished by malicious actors and what's worst the actual exchange is stealing from you.
What you can do is always keep most of your coins in cold wallets, away from stealing hands.

why would you people invest in something called fog computing lol
You obviously don't know what fog computing is. FYI, Cisco coined the term which means extending cloud computing services closer to an enterprise's network. It is a trending but still nascent movement in enterprises because it is more efficient.

One thing I learned these past few years is that never put your savings in a bank as fiat. Your 4 dollars today may buy you a Big Mac meal, but in the next 10 years, it will only pay for the softdrink. One should put their savings into hard assets like land, gold and of course, Bitcoin.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Craig Wright is official a fraud

Craig is a fraud and it was clear from the beginning.
What is gonna happen when his month runs out with the court for a settlement with the Klieman estate for 1/2 billion USD? I mean, what is he planning to do then? Change his gender/identity and run for the hills? brad "Doctor" Craig Wright will probably declare he has lost access to those bitcoins or maybe fake his own death or maybe just disappear. Whatever it is, he won't admit he is fraud. Because admitting is the ultimate humiliation.

It is a niche for now. Remember most people in the Internet are used to easy usage of web services, not all people can navigate Github, lol. When the perfect blockchain-based social media comes along, it will be better than Facebook - faster, not much ads, user-friendly, without users knowing it's blockchain-based.

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are there any Altcoins out there backed by real assets?
|
on: September 18, 2019, 06:30:48 PM

There are lots of coins/tokens that claims they are backed by gold but I don't think that they are really backed by gold. They just use this scheme to entice investors to invest on their project. I have seen several projects that claims to be backed by real asset but they failed on proving that they really are backed by what they claim and eventually, the project die or the developer runs with the collected money.
This is so true. None of them that claims they backed by hard assets were true. Even Tether is proven to be running as a fractional reserve. Another unbelievable asset-backed coin is Petro, cryptocurrency by Maduro's government which is turning out to be scam.

The bleeding of altcoins will stop very soon. Many of crypto Twitter are already calling for another altcoin season since seeing the Bitcoin dominance chart stopping at 70%. Well, it can't bleed forever. It will reverse soon, maybe next month.

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bakkt Will be launched by 23 September btc vs altcoins
|
on: September 15, 2019, 08:09:54 PM

Bakkt Launch Will bring bull run for btc Right? Not sure yet. BTC price must break up above the triangle formation.
But what about alts like ETH, LTC, BCH. Do You think that Bakkt Launching could affect alt coins aswell somehow? Altcoins will get a bull market when BTC is in a bull market. Right now, a lot of people still think we are in a BTC bear market.
What You Think 23 september what Will be the btc price gain by % Down to $8k or up to $14k
And who are the investors who Will be using the BAKKT platform?. Its Wall Street, so They are bigger investors Right? Or are They retail investors? There is a minimum deposit, I think. So, this is not like Coinbase at all.

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: My greatest crypto regret

Still my greatest regret is not knowing about Bitcoin in 2010 or 2011. I thought of myself as a computer geek, but it was all about commercial programming for me. I spent more time in Stack Exchange, learning about javascript, html, and PHP. If I have known about Bitcoin, I would have tried mining it from my desktop and kept it for a souvenir.
