I am pretty active on Bitcointalk's Steemit topic (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1466593.0) and I have been a Steemian for around a year now. Ask me anything about it. I will help you. As for the latest updates, there aren't many. Just one that Steem was recently listed on Binance. I'll be waiting for your questions!
Tell me of the latest developments

How about activity token project? if you can't mine the coins you have mentioned, you might as well buy my activity token, every time I put some sell orders on Waves decentralized exchange, my orders would get canceled the next time I'd login to my Waves wallet.

I don't have any whitepaper for my token, because people already know everything there is to it, Bitcoin killer, much better and faster and cheaper, it will change the(my) world.

You just buy them, I will do the rest and would tell you that my tokens are fee-less. on paper, they all are really something, you have to invest on every token, coin. there is no useless coin in crypto, they are just selling you the future of crypto currencies cheap, nobody would ask them, why are you selling them? why don't you keep them for yourself?

I'm keeping my tokens for myself, they are the future right? a man has got to eat right?

Why would you sell 100 Million coins for $0.01 each and then *deving them into something worth $1 to make others rich? you could *dev them and then sell them for $1.

Sorry, this is not relevant

Hey,

Information about steemit:

I joined Steemit July 2017. My Profile Link:

https://steemit.com/@roy92

Steemit is a social network and content rewards platform that makes the crowd the beneficiaries of the attention economy. It does this be rewarding users with STEEM.

So this means, if you creat content, it can get upvotet by others. The more SteemPower you have, the stronger is your Upvote. But tbh, only the whales are getting bigger, because they upvote theyr own posts, so theyr posts are on the mainpage and only the posts of the whales are visible.

And Steem is the name of the Blockchain, Steemit is the front end. There are other frontend applications, running on the Steem Blockchain, like Dtube.

Oh and SteemBackedDollars (SBD) are a "stable" trading utility coin. SBD was considered to stay stable in the range of 0.9-1.1 USD. But it is enflated to high. It is currently on 3.3 $/SBD.

If you have more questions, feel free to ask me here or PM me.

Btw i need 10 Merit to reach Member rank  Tongue

Thanks for taking an interest in the thread and thanks for the info but its
general information which can be found on their ANN post.
You are welcome to post further info.

But only 1 merit will be awarded to 1 person regardless on the number of
posts they make.

This is something i posted in one of the Cappasity yesterday

According to the Cappasity Blog they have collaborated in some way with the Alibaba team
for implementing the Alibaba cloud platform to reach the China market.
Im not sure how far the partnership goes other than alibaba renting their cloud platform,
but it is positive and an impressive name to be associated with.

Here is the blog link
https://blog.artoken.io/cappasity-platform-launch-in-china-99a2be8dfe73

and the quote from that
"We utilize Google Cloud Platform for users from all over the world, except China where from now on we will be using Alibaba Cloud Platform."

1 merit awarded, thanks for the info!

*PLEASE READ THIS POST IN FULL

There are a number of projects [below] I am interested in and have
yet to pull the trigger and invest in.

Some of the newer projects have generated so much attention that
the threads are numerous and some are quite big so i feel that unless
I am keeping up to date it is easy to fall behind, and difficult to
catch up while keeping tabs on my existing portfolio.

So I have 12 sMerit to spend for information about the following:

Qtum - 0 merit remaining
Capp - 0 merit remaining
Iota - 1 merit's remaining
Steem - 0 merit's remaining

ETC - 0 merits remaining

Criteria:
I'm looking for relevant and up to date info, im not looking for info
taken from the first page of an ANN thread, I can read that myself.
I am looking for information and links and verified technical info to
back it up.

Reward:
3 merit's per project [above]
1 merit per person

Conditions:
I will not be answering questions about why I did or did not reward
particular posts, I will be rewarding on what interests me or persuades
me to finally invest in the above.

Here is the original merit announcement thread > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0;topicseen

and a quote from theymos from that thread:
"While we will not be directly moderating this, I encourage people to give merit to posts that are objectively high-quality, not just posts that you agree with."

Thanks for the input guys.

Something to consider as LtMotioN states, Bitcoin and crypto are
being constantly judged by their fiat value and market cap but
its the underlying real world revelance and adoption which are the
important factors if it is to carry into the future.

I dont know anything about "programmable streaming money" though.

Another factor I totally overlook on a daily basis is the possibility
to earn rewards particularly if you have a skill.

In my case I have completed a few Graphic Design jobs and received
payment in Crypto, isnt that a perfect example of Satoshi's creation?

Peer-to-Peer payment, no banks or middlemen involved


6247  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: + Inviting Positivity + on: February 07, 2018, 12:11:14 PM
@ Alexander_Z, that is a great story.

I hope this thread can be a place where everyone from Newbies to Sr.Members
can discover some historical experiences others have had and learn not to
let the current state of crypto turn people away but instead to keep faith.
6248  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Sia - Decentralized Storage on: February 06, 2018, 10:06:01 PM
What i care about when it comes to SIA is the project itself
and how it will be developed, implemented and adopted by
people not speculating on its FIAT value.

We have a working project in SIA in time as it is developed,
implemented and adopted that is what will add value.

So far there has been good developments, im sure there will
be errors made or things some people dissagree with but
long term it will all work out. . .

Thats why I added to my SIA holding today
6249  Other / Beginners & Help / + Inviting Positivity + on: February 06, 2018, 09:40:32 PM
In these current times of FUD, doom and gloom and manipulation I am
creating this thread to invite seasoned forum members along to post
record their positivity for others to read and take inspiration from.

There are a lot of members here with many years experience, who have
seen very bleak times in Bitcoin and crypto and as far as i know this
current situation is not the first time Bitcoin has suffered a fall.

It would be nice for us newcomers to hear some real life positivity based
on real life experience and not on some report driven by 'likes and follows'
or manipulation.



6250  Economy / Economics / Re: It's Not Over Yet on: February 06, 2018, 09:27:01 PM
No its not over yet, the fud and hyped up negativity to crypto continues.
There are a lot of people unwilling to check what they read before reacting
just as we have seen with scam ico's and hyip schemes for example, they
Just take everything as gospel and press their buttons.
6251  Other / Meta / Re: Phishing? on: February 06, 2018, 03:24:14 PM
Thanks for the heads up.
This is strange that you got this and happen to be a member of the forum.
I wonder how many other members go this Phishing mail?

To date I have never clicked on suspicious mail, even though I suspect today
suspicious mail can be made to look genuine.

at a glance BITCOINTCLK.ORG can look the real deal, just goes to prove how
something simple can catch people out.

Check and re-check before clicking!!
6252  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Who is Satoshi Conspiracy? on: February 05, 2018, 02:56:52 PM
I think you need to step bck and look at the structure, evolution and limits in Bitcoin.

It was postulated as an anti-banking system, and released into a community that was likely to seize on this, and to expand on the possibilities of freedom from the established banking system. This gives the bankers an insight into the possible problems in the future.

It was capped at 21million coins, and whilst this my seem to be a lot, it is insignificant it the context of world economies.

It has a reasonable degree of anonymity, This means that coins retained or acquired by banks and governments can be concealed

The block generation interval of 10 minutes, and the need for additional confirmations means that the system can never rival banking transfer systems as a volume service.

The password restrictions and wallet storage methods mean that coins will be lost forever durng the lifetime of Bitcoin.

Recent method of price manipulation means that central bankers and other can increase their holdings at minimal cost.

These and various other factors lead me to believe that Bitcoin is an experimental project created by a central banker as a precursor to the release of a major new digital currency.

or that it was created by someone or group who were really hard done
by in the 2007/2008 financial crash and who held a serious grudge
against the establishment.

I dont have any other theories on the Satoshi Nakamoto subject, and I
dont ponder too much over it because it has been speculated on, talked
about and investigated to death already with no enlightenment.

To air other theories again, Satoshi may have passed away already . . .
and this from an older BCT thread which is my favourite > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2294666.0

Haha, that's the million bitcoin question. No one really knows (except Satoshi and maybe those close to him). Anyone claiming to know is just speculating. If you google search or youtube search there are all sorts of theories ranging from him dying to being a group of corporations (SAmsung, TOSHIba, NAKAmichi, and MOTOrola). It's even possible he/she/they don't even have the private keys to the wallets that those funds are located in. If I had to give my best educated guess, I would guess it's Nick Szabo, who had the original idea of bitgold.

6253  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Low prices, are you excited about the situation? on: February 05, 2018, 12:47:48 PM
These discount times we are in now should benefit those who missed out
throughout 2017 although the price could fall a bit more.

its certainly a good time for topping up various holdings, of course for
those who believe the situation is temporary, like me  Grin
6254  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you want to own the token or profit from its price raise on: February 03, 2018, 11:21:43 PM
Its about return of investment.
Especially when you can avail of up to 50% bonus on your initial buy
in and dump them when they are listed on an exchange which is when
the value is highest. There is a race to dump, so the value drops off.
6255  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you want to own the token or profit from its price raise on: February 03, 2018, 07:49:40 PM
I always hold for the longterm.
It happens so much that other people buy tokens only to sell at a profit.
Some dont care what the project can deliver, others dont have the patience
or deem the project development too slow.
6256  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] TenX: Making Blockchain assets spendable on: February 02, 2018, 10:12:02 AM
BABB doesn't have a banking license yet, so TenX may have a bit of an advantage for the time being, as they already have the liquidity to move things along fairly quickly. BABB looks like a pretty solid project, but new competition doesn't mean the death of the incumbent. Competition drives innovation, so either way, I see this as a good development. There's room for more than one crypto bank/card services provider.

If Tenx can't even roll out ETH correctly, do you have confidence in them in term of obtaining banking license?  Most likely, they will NOT have the banking license in Q2, I don't think they are going to have it this year

I dont like to hear this TBH.

Thinking about it I would be skeptical that they would be issued a
banking license at a time when we see the two CC players Visa and
Mastercard applying fees for crypto purchases.

https://themerkle.com/visa-and-mastercard-now-charge-an-additional-fee-for-buying-cryptocurrency/

Did anyone maybe hear which card issuer will be issuing replacement cards in the meanwhile?

There is none, that is why they are applying for their own banking license.
6257  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Legolas Exchange, fair, secure and realistic exchange on: February 02, 2018, 09:49:38 AM

I was wondering a few times about those enormous whitelist and pre-sale registration numbers also for other projects. I don't know whether all those registrations have always been true because as you say often times activity is so much lower than what you would expect from such a horde of interested people.

It just seems pretty normal for me, it happens to some other site that is doing ICO as well

1. Most people dont use bitcointalk
2. Even if they do, some dont even have any account
3. Most people discover an ICO from those ICO listing website not from bitcointalk
4. They are burning themselves if they are lying about the whitelisting and such, there is really no point to lie unless they want to create the hype
5. Some ICO use ICO bumping service to help create activity in their thread

UPDATE: Contributions are coming from 144 countries so far!
We're amazed to see this global support.

We've done it! We've reached the hard cap of 2000 BTC in about 9 hours. A total of 3500 BTC has been sold. We can't wait to show you what being a part of the future actually means!



Impressive stats! and well done to all of us involved.

Its also quite impressive to have a "worldwide" show of interest,
of course unfortunately they are not all on BCT.

We can move forward and enjoy the Beta Version release in
the first quarter 2018.
6258  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on Zcash? on: February 02, 2018, 09:15:32 AM
good link.
I think Zcash is a bit of a sleeper and doesnt get much attention
on BCT compared to other coinage, purely because of its high value.
A lot of people and new comers are looking for the 10X, 100X coins.

Its a well backed coin, everyone should have some in the portfolio!!
6259  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Its over guys on: February 01, 2018, 12:43:55 PM
what is your explanation that bitcoin is over ?? Can you explain ? Since south korea officially decreared trading will continue and no plan to ban . you are claimin crpto world is over ?
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-southkorea-bitcoin-trading/south-korea-doesnt-intend-to-shut-down-virtual-coin-trading-finance-minister-idUSKBN1FK0NL

In India crypto is no longer a legal tender and govt will do everything to ban crypto, more countries will join. In every 10 coins, 1 coin is held by Indians. Market is crashing.

https://www.ccn.com/india-signals-crackdown-bitcoin-cryptocurrency-usage/

you must be a zombie,

last time I checked there is only 1 country openly using Crypto based
currency as a currency but not as LEGAL TENDER and it is not India.
Guess which one . . .

There are more and more countries trying to come to terms with it and
in some cases embracing the technology.
Guess which ones . . .

if you are so against crypto this is not the place to be, get a job in CNN.


6260  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you truly believe in cryptocurrency on: February 01, 2018, 07:47:02 AM
I am taking the question an meaning the crypto currency we talk about
here on this forum, the decentralised ones, because i believe the future
will be built on both blockchain and Iot but the vast majority will be
centralised and controled by existing commercial "big Business".

What we like here also has a future and IMO payment systems,
Like litecoin  Grin. Particularly as people look to take more control of their funds.
Also crypto projects with good working product, services and solutions,
Like SIA
[Promotion of coins i like  Grin]

So yes i believe crypto has a serious future.
