[ANN][Main] Bitcore- BTX - 1:1 Backed BSC Bridge BTX <->SBTX

[ttran2x]

For this airdrop, Do I need to be opening my wallet 7/24? Or it is okay as long as I have btx in my walleT?

As long as you have btx in your wallet address and the address is registered to receive airdrop.

If you think staking then you need to
have wallet opened 24/7.
For the airdrops there is no need to have
wallet opened 24/7.
If you have more than 1 BTX then you will
receive the 8% of total coins that you have in the address you
registered before.
I hope that is more clear now

Omegapool has mined 52% of the last 100 blocks

Move along, nothing to see here.

A long post about Shariah acceptance or roadmaps should bury this notice soon enough.

I think this is a serious issue and should be addressed by the Bitcore team somehow (a statement to introduce the other existing pools to the community, contacting other pool owners to add Bitcore to their pool, etc.).

I'm not very technically savvy about such matters, but wouldn't a PoS mining model block this attack vector for good and all? This is what I was asking the BTX team to do a few months ago (and I saw others suggest along the same lines). I think it is possible to switch to the PoS model via an interim hybrid model so that nobody would be seriously affected by this switch. Are the BTX developers able to do that thing? Frankly speaking, I have yet to see them do anything of real value and true innovation cryptotechnology related besides just painting the BTX wallet with pink colors.

Correct me if I'm wrong on this, and then I will happily stand corrected.

Guys who are now mines in 1070 as with 6 cards out per day? ...

Mining with 6 GTX 1070's should get you around 1 to 1.2 BTX a day at the current price.

... Does it make sense to get a coin now?

Considering that the whole crypto market is kind of down at the moment (although signs of recovery are slowly appearing in the last few days), I still think mining makes sense if you have access to cheap electricity and want to hold the mined BTX for now.

Yes, if you believe the price of BTX will be higher when you sell, it does not matter what is the price now.

There's nothing wrong with the current mining model, except miners who for no rational reason flock to the biggest pool. Look at Bitcoin, pools there have operators who understand these things and the miners too understand their responsibilities better. The biggest pool is just barely 25%, exactly at the limits of this admittedly quite theoretical attack.

And isn't it obvious that making abrupt rule changes should only be used as a last resort when everything else has failed.

You do not need to open your wallet. Just register your wallet address for the air drop and keep some btx in the wallet.

Mining diff and hash is low because of price.  As time goes on hash will distribute better.  51% attack is harder because there is no Nicehash rental / ASIC available.

PoS is a cop out solution and shouldn't be considered as a "fix" by any means.

It's not long since I last saw Omegapool touting themselves as the best pool to join... a pool that cares about the security of the network would CLOSE THEIR DOORS TO NEW MINERS at 40% and start educating miners about the issue at 30%. Haven't seen this kind of behaviour at all.

Probably stupid question, but why is Coin Market Cap reporting 66k Satoshi per BTX, when in fact you have to buy it with at least 71k Satoshi.
It leaves BTX much lowereed ranked as it should be.

I won't try to justify their behavior because it is bad on the aggregate, but for the individual there is a rational reason to explain it.

Simply, the earnings are most predictable and smooth when mining on the biggest pool. And it makes sense to avoid the very small pools (those less than say 5%)
But as soon as the pool gets near 15-20% and provided you'll be mining for a few hours if not days straight, there is practically no advantage any more in looking for a bigger pool.

Coinmarketcap is very slow to update itself lately. It is not just Bitcore. I saw the same thing for the other small alts. They usually fix these problems manually if someone sends an email to notice them.

I thought their program takes the price automaticaly from exchanges and makes a ponderate mean out of them.

Off course it does automatically but with intervals of 15 minutes

That's correct, assuming the pools bay pased on blocks being found. A PPS pool has no variance from blocks, even if you were the only miner with a single GPU.

BTW, to enjoy the least possible block variance, the strategy is to mine at each pool simultaneously weighted by their portion of network hashrate. Maintaining the status quo can be profitable this way.

I second this question. Make it showcase the SegWit support if possible! I'm wondering whether any of the new Lightning implementations are compatible.
