[UNO] Unobtanium Info & Discussion - Merge Mine w/BTC! - Update NOW to qt 0.11.5

[MegaMike]

I applaud you, loudly I might add, for your progressive attitude, sloopy. Hopefully someday I figure out how to make a difference (the way I like!) other then by posting a few words and be done with it 

But hopefully more people see the benefits of crypto, and more importantly, see that it's not all drugs and scam the way media are painting the picture

[Krypto Superdog]

On another level, I'm not sure if UNO or any other cryptocoin is going to make even the slightest difference. Ofcourse, without euro's handy, how will you buy food? But without the grocery shop accepting coins, what's the point of having them?! And without the shop's supplier accepting coins, why should the shop accept them if it won't buy them the supplies they need?

buy 'em, hold 'em, sell 'em to us if/when you need fiat.  

this is a reserve commodity

You won't get my UNO 

[maki]

I like Uno. It is one of my favorite coins. It's a good investment at this price.  

I collect old blockchains so I have seen hundreds of coins that have not made it as long as Uno. I will call myself an expert on the 2013 crop of coins, which is mostly what I collect.   I thought Uno would be one of them but I was wrong.  So many coins of follow a similar pattern: launch, pump, dump, delisting, abandonment, death.  Uno might have died around April 2014, but it did not.  I think Uno has crossed the threshold. It is here for the long term now, like Bitcoin, Namecoin, Litecoin. I can clearly see this now after collecting so many dead blockchains.  Now with merge mining Uno will be here for a long time. Uno should have a marketcap much higher than it is, and it will some day. I reason that the current cap is low because the long time members here have been accumulating for almost 2 years, and they want to buy more.  I have seen many of the same names here for a long time; they will be here buying Uno even if it is .00001; actually they would probably love that, but I don't think the price will ever be that low again. This community will keep Uno going. They find a way.

It has been very interesting to watch Uno. I thinks this community is one of the best. It flexes and absorbs, instead of reacting and excluding.  In cryptocurrency, that is as rare as Uno.

by the way I am searching for the arkhash blockchain. Does anyone have it?

[siameze]

Sorry, I couldn't resist quoting your sig ...

I collect and trade rare and lost cryptocurrencies and blockchains.
Prefer fair launch/no premine, pre-2014 coins.

So that is like what, 8 coins?

@siameze, I literally laughed out loud. That's great. Think it was more like 1 coin though. 

Meanwhile, has anyone seen the trailer for this new movie?

I think it's gonna be a real smash up!

@maki

Very well said.  And if any holds the honorific title of rare and lost cryptocurrencies collector master it is you.  I actually appreciate this endorsement of UNO, thank you.

I remember arkhash, and it had serious hash backing it too, then faded.  Sorry no leads on active chain.

I think this is a problem actually - hardly anyone actually uses UNO (or indeed most cryptos to be fair), they just sit on them, in the belief the price will go up. Unless it is actually used and has utility then no "currency" crypto or otherwise is going to succeed.

in defense of the Maki strategy

He seems to target SHA256.  

I can identify 3 core platforms: SHA256, scrypt, and x11

Each are industries into themselves.  All different in nuance.

SHA256 seems only to be stable if AND ONLY if you are MM to bitcoin or have clean hybrid code (very few do).

Outliners are Zeta and Maza.  After that risky.  But given the industry (read money backing it) hobby coins could turn the corner via stick mining.  Light bulbs of the future could and will mine on the side.

Scrypt algos are a little more abundant.  And it looks like 50 or more can survive.  China is deeply invested in this tech.

x11 is the most obsure to determine.  But Dash is leading the way.  START is actually pulling more hash.  Coins like CANN, KARMA, SMART, FRAC, even URO have a good shot.

[siameze]

I would love to see the original blue color on the site too, instead of the little yellow un periodic table thing.

There will be a redesign of the site at some point

I certainly hope there is a site redesign. One that doesn't include the name of script-kiddie scam devs.

I wasn't really addressing Maki directly, it was simply his comment that triggered the thought - which was a general concern I have with crypto generally and UNO specifically,

Crypto-commodity $UNO store of value has uptrending exchange rate for a year now.  This is the utility that $UNO has offered and will continue to offer to any takers.  With $UNO I think it's more than belief that's causing folks to buy and hold.  It's challenging to get the $UNO message and story out there to the potential next 1,000 new wallets.  I keep buying a little every month.

Hmm .. "uptrending" measured how?  If against BTC, then you need to allow for the downtrend of BTC.

And really 50 or 100 people buying and holding is not, in itself, utility, is it?

If you had your money in a Greek bank and transferred it out to $UNO for safekeeping knowing that there was going to be a 30% bail-in on all frozen deposits over 8k Euro, I'd say that there is a lot of utility in $UNO.

Store of value is utility in and of itself.  It's similar to buying and holding digital gold...

[sirsmokesalot]

Utility is important for certain coins. Coins like Potcoin, utility was king. If you couldn't get pot for your Potcoin, there was no utility, it was (is) a trash coin. To act like any of these coins offer real utility over what already exists out there, come on, really? What does btc and ltc offer over me using my credit card? The opportunity to not give those fat cat bankers more of my money. After that..? The chains offer something unique. The coin is the byproduct that is paid to the worker bee to keep the chain moving. Carrot on the stick for the miner.

Is there any way to tell if a wallet is dead? Like a number of the top 100 wallets haven't been touched for well over a year. Can we ever really know about these zombie wallets? It isn't really so important except for that each Uno becomes that much more special for every wallet that falls into the oblivion.

What type of utility could Uno possibly have?

I don't mind Uno's distribution so much. Everyone who has any stake had to either mine it or buy it.

Why is there this rush to make money? Lots of other markets to play. Slow and steady has been the Uno thing for a while now.

I keep wondering the same thing. The push for Chinese adoption, while noble, could actually have the reverse effect. As one of my wise friends said today, the Chinese simply see BTC as another Crimea, to farm to death to the bedrock. Then leave, like locusts.

I have played with deposits and withdrawals at Crypstsy for sometime.  I believe that a lot of the "dead" wallets are some Cryptsy hot storage.  For some time, I have advocated a community-concerted, mass withdrawal on a specific day, for a specific amount of time to see what the Emperor's clothes really look like. If we all withdrew at the same time, we could see that.

It's actually a decent time to do it since the markets are pretty stable with not much movement.

I've wondered what the new rush to drive the value up is myself. This is a many year process.  Any reading of this thread should clue readers that this is not a pump and dump affair.

My friend thanks to the long time members this coin  survive a lot of bullshit and going to for the future!

Short travelers do not care so much about Unobtanium!

Utility - well Unobtanium is still very obtainable. And if you want to buy pizza or gold nobody can stop you. Uno is mostly crypto bank and future reserve/Mother of all crypto thanks to fundamentals it has

Wealth prevention is the idea behind Unobtanium. Put some small  part of your wealth in Un - price don't matter it is a most stable crypto commodity. I guess not everybody can do this because the little risk involve. Well welcome to the crypto world!

$UNO exchange rate = UNO/BTC.  This is what's been uptrending for the last year.  The utilization question toward crypto in general and $UNO specifically may have more to do with expectations vs. execution.  There's high expectations and optimism in crypto.  Can we say that $UNO functions as crypto-commodity store of value and show data to back it up?  Maybe the utility is still evolving and not completely apparent yet, it's still early.

Anyone want to speculate what the next year will hodl for $UNO?

[BitcoinNational]

yes.  UNO has made a very good case as being the-SOV-commodity-the-reserve-coin-mother-of-all-crypto.  
(see the chart) (see the fundamentals)

RE: the next 1,000 new wallets

i like this concept.  and i think it is a do-able project in less then 300 days.  where new wallets = new long travelers to join.


RE: utility

whole different subject.  but i have some ideas.  First let's establish the idea in the general crypto public that 1 UNO = $3, solid.  Then UNO = $1M market cap, solid.  After that we can answer the "what does it do?" question because it will be doing that DO.  more later.
