Fifth alt coin thread last four got too big.

[QuintLeo]

Man the more and more Vega news coming out, i feel like its literally an updated fury.....

 True to a real degree on the basic design, but AMD supposedly HAS done some significant tweeking to the "under the hood" design - more than just a "die shrink".

 The similarity however is real, the core of both is still the "designed around HBM" for all of it's pluses and minuses.

One of my US contacts text me that Poloniex rumored contemplating not doing business in the US due to investigations etc. -- can anyone verify?

I think they are up to something.  They have had terrible service for months not answering support tickets

For many of us.  I wonder if these are all USA based. I keep pennies well dollars there now under 25 and trade to btc then move to a wallet I own

thoughts on the ledger wallet blue?

Cons = cost 1 for 225 euro  long wait Early october.

pros = bigger screen for tired eyes   lots of wallets possible.

I can get 3 trezor for 270 euro  shipped to me in about 1week  .

to be fair I own 1 trezor and have three coming today.

I don't own a ledger wallet blue so I do not know if I would like it.

[rs1x]

so we are all well aware difficulty has spiked over the last day or so.  It's spiked harder than I would have expected.  3 rigs all RX 470/570/580 cards.  Previously i was making about 3.15 eth per month.  Looking @ numbers it looks like that is down to 2.5 eth per month.  I use ethermine as a pool.

I've seen you guys mention a few times using nicehash.  My struggle there is, if i switch to nicehash, and they end up mining ETH anyway, seems like a wasted effort.

Any advice from some of the veterans here?

Phillip,

May i ask why you went Trezor route over other options like the ledger nano or what not? I dont currently have a hardware wallet, but looking to buy one and was thinking of getting the blue, because i have funds spread across over 30 alt coins currently

Like Phil, I got the Trezor too. I love it. Simple and Secure. Trezor is a SatoshiLabs company... LOL.... which also operates Slush Pool.

I admit that the only string push for me to get Trezors is this stupid 1st Aug fork drama.

Anyways, I like that Trezors focuses on the main coins only.

So I will use Trezor for the high value stash.

And maybe Nanos for alts.... but I see it only have Ripple .... I have 5 QT alt wallets like SIA, Stratis, UBIQ, Signatum, Digibyte that I put on a isolated PC (used Lenovo M2 Windows desktop) that runs and host only wallets for long term hodl.

Using a fast 500GB SSD that I make quick regular HDDRAW copy image backups. I recently move them from my iMac-27" which needs a RAM and SSD upgrade badly.

I recently took a position in NEO and its also hosted in the M2 desktop. I am worried now that putting all of these alt wallets in one place sounds like a good idea at first so that i could make central backup..... buts its also a single point of failure since the bad guys can just take over 1 PC....

 It doesn't matter what Nicehash does with your hashrate - they're a market, you will get paid whatever the market is offering for that hashrate no matter where the "buyer" points the hashrate.

The trezor was fast to ship.

The deluxe ledger is not till October .

Trezor is good for my wife in case something happens to me.

If I get a ledger I am not waiting months for one.

Ya i feel like i need to make some changes to my setup also as im unsure if i can trust cloud drives, i currently dont have the issue of running something to gain PoS stakings, so all my wallets use seperate google cloud drives currently, since they are alt coins the drives are big enough to maintain the wallets folders. Currently when i want to access one i log into the seperate cloud drive via a different windows user login for that seperate wallet, let it sync up and do what i need at that time via the google cloud drive linked that the user account.

Let me clear things up on Poloniex a bit.  No more trollbox, because of overload of negative comments and warnings.  Deposit problems, Withdrawal problems.  Virtually no support.  Terms of service have just been changed.  "This means that all claims other than intellectual property lawsuits, such as copyright or trademark infringement lawsuits, or claims seeking non-monetary relief would be subject to binding arbitration. This includes claims which may pre-date this agreement."  and "ADDITIONALLY, YOU HEREBY WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION".


And most important, not a word on Bitcoin Cash, no credit for bitcoin so far on the exchange, nothing.  Moral of the story is :  You cannot give users Bitcoin Cash to users, if you do not have the underlying bitcoin private keys.  My 2cents.  My polo balance is 0.

[philipma1957]

now comes fun  I have 8 in a core wallet

i should get  8 in btc and in  bcc

bcc is at .195  or 8 x .195 = 1.64 coins



bcc is near 540 usd  so 8 x 540 = 4k

btc is near 2700 usd and 8 x 2700 = 21.6k

link to setup recovery is here

Im sooo glad I never touched a foot into poloniex..... that's my only comment there.

Yobit gave me a 1:1 ratio of BCC to BTC for what I had in my BTC wallet on the exchange... too bad they haven't reloaded their hot wallet in a few weeks or I would have double what I have now....   (owed via signature campaign payments)

BCC seems to be trading wildly, but on the gradual uptick.  I also find it humorous that the BCT forum via the link up top is referring to it as BCH....

Im curious wherein it will finally lie;   as, its value just can't be fathomed up just like the FED does with cash....  its gotta come from "somewhere"...  So where it ends up coming from, is anyone's guess.

Quite a battle back and forth with BTC and BCC... lots of resistance from both sides to move upwards....  Im curious at how long they will hold each other back.

well I have 8 coins in a core 0.14.2 wallet  which is nice as in theroy

 I now have 8 BTC and 8 BCC.

Since I can not deposit the BCC  into bittrex  I am leaving it alone.

I have not split the wallet.  BCC  got up to .43 BTC

So some serious money was made at bittrex if you left coins there. as they are letting you trade it.

[SVK]

I'm not splitting anything at the moment.
I simply do not believe that someone will GIVE you 000's for free.

Too good to be true.
