Alternative Block Chains : be safe!

[Zizi19231]

Using an alternate cryptocurrency client would be a great way to get many people to install a hidden virus that targets Bitcoin users.

If you have a significant amount of Bitcoins, I wouldn't run other clients on the same computer until the alternates have developed trust over a longer period of time... I'm probably on the paranoid side of things though.

I agree with the others who suggested using a separate machine. Especially for newbies like me, because we don't know how to look "under the hood" to check that malware or keylogger is not packaged with any new downloads and installs.

LastPass is what I use generate new password when trying a new Alt Blockchains. Profit gains from Bitcoins is trading is what I invest in altcoins and if it loses, no point to worry. But so far Alt Block chains have been successful since most developers want to make a project successful hoping it will turn out to be a new Bitcoins.

Stay safe by using a unique password and keeping it secrecy.

in a few days, there will be the planned launch of Bitcoin Futures contracts by the CME Group (Chicago Mercantile Exchange) and
CBOE Global Markets. This event is of fundamental importance for the BTC cause many think that this will lead to an increased BTC demand.

It is not clear how this increased demand will appear, considering that those Futures Contracts are settled in FIAT money and not in BTC.

For this reason, there could be a disappointment in BTC demand that could lead to an increased interest in altcoins...so the best for
me would be now to invest a little money in some promising altcoin like Achain, Electroneum and IntenseCoin. The results can
be surprising

Well, in any case, this will all be improved as the influx of newcomers is very great and will be even more in 2018 as I think and hope. So everything will be fine I think.

. Block chains are not scam, it work.  I’m sure that some people didn’t realize these things before.

[Eddy XFC]

Interesting topic.To my understanding:
a. As with all topics concerning crypto, some precautions need to be taken before providing your full faith.

b. Recent events have shown there is a need for a better infrastructure to keep up with the demand created for crypto transactions.

Before many people did not understand, and now governments are starting to implement block chains

I think the government is even profitable to some extent. The implementation of block chains will help them track everyone who has done any transactions. And "cover up tracks" will not work. This is a great database that can not be changed.

You can have more than one wallet dat.

You just need 1 portable bitcoin client that can safely reside on an encrypted and backed up volume, and one regular one for day to day tiny stuff. It's not like you routinely send 5000+ BTC, no?

Incidentally, cobbling together a somewhat workable portable bitcoin is pretty straightforward.

This system won’t require a ledger (e.g. a blockchain) and transactions will be exactly like cash transactions, because whether e.g. a coin (which, in this context, is an actual network entity, not just a number) can be sent from this account to that account is decided on the spot (a group verifies the transaction using the owner’s private key), and no history needs to be kept. (It doesn’t mean people couldn’t record transactions for any kind of purposes; it’s just not a necessary part of a transaction.)

Yes, there is something to read on this forum and take it into service. But most of the information is of course of poor quality. But thank you guys for sharing information, very informative.

[LegionCoin]

thank you gavin

[wisdomabioye]

What a nice piece of advice. This is an eye opener especially for newbie like me. Thanks Gavin

[pavelkor]

Good questions Gavin, and i would say right question, you think with technically aspect too, thats is very important thing. because more reviews i hear for now, it is more about the greedy, why i have no bitcoins, if i could return some years ago, i would buy alot of them and now i would be more richer and happier, no one cares about other things at all, thats sad

[joemanabat05]

It is not necessary that all the Alternative Blockchain are risky. There are upcoming blockchains which is exceedingly superior than many existing project.
One of them is Hdac, It is the world's first IoT Contract & M2M Transaction Platform based on Blockchain. Hdac is not just jumping aboard a technological innovation, they are turning it into a technological revolution. Hdac implements a specific authentication scheme by applying a Quantum Random Number to eliminate the possibility of hacking. With great blockchain comes great responsibility. Hdac keeps you safe.
