Re: Ymgve’s Fork-Claiming Process

Hi,

I found this article that shows how to claim the fork coins using a special script... Anyone can explain (step by step) how and where to edit and run this script on python?? i couldn't locate the following variables in the script file (claimer.py) to change them ( )

The link to the articale:
https://99bitcoins.com/how-to-claim-bitcoin-forks-guide/?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_medium=Push&utm_campaign=Claiming+Bitcoin+forks

Thanks in advance

I highly recommend taking a look at the output from this script, https://gist.github.com/ottoteixeira/c5ba96ff296ddf95b36e498654faf871. It's a helper script that generates the calls to claimer.py. I have been successful in claiming both Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin Gold (BTG) using both scripts.

DM me if you have questions.

From the aforementioned blog post:

Specifically, here's a list of payments problems we want to tackle:

- to send someone cryptocurrency, you shouldn't need to pass around big ugly addresses. It's annoying and dangerous.
- you should be able to address someone however you know them - and preferably not with a phone number.
- you shouldn't have to paste a private key into a webpage or browser extension
- your wallet should persist across multiple devices.

Re: Uber co-founder Garrett Camp is launching new cryptocurrency - Eco

It would be not bad, if we can pay for uber in this coin:)) But what`s the necessity of one more "global" cryptocurrency,which we use everyday,I don`t know. Firstly,we need to decide what to do with more than 1k coins and tokens on coinmarketcap

I agree that there are way too many cryptocurrencies out there at the moment. Will more than a handful be feasible one year from now?

The gross domestic product (GDP) of China is $11 trillion USD. It represents almost 15% of the world's economy. US GDP is $18 trillion USD. So, yes, anything that the Chinese government does/says in regards to cryptocurrency will make a difference.

I don't think this series of events signals the end of ICOs. Regulation is inevitable. The strongest ICOs will still find a way to succeed, with or without government regulation.

The most promising casino/gaming-related coin is https://funfair.io/. FunFair provides the platform to allow licensed operators and developers the ability to create fully-customized player experiences for traditional games of chance, such as slots and blackjack.

Here's a link to their whitepapers, https://funfair.io/white-papers-languages/.

According to this article https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/21/business/dealbook/phone-hack-bitcoin-virtual-currency.html from the NY Times, "... dozens of prominent people in the (virtual currency) industry acknowledged that they had been victimized in recent months."

What can individuals do to prevent these attacks (or minimize the impact) from happening?

Powerball (U.S.) lottery jackpot hits 150,000 BTC (or $600 million dollars)

From the Associated Press...

Quote
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Powerball officials say there was no grand prize winner in the latest drawing, meaning one of the nation’s largest lottery jackpots will continue growing.

Maura McCann of the New Hampshire Lottery says no ticket matched all six numbers following Saturday night’s drawing. The winning numbers are: 17, 19, 39, 43, 68 and Powerball 13.

The new jackpot for Wednesday’s drawing is $650 million, which would be the third-largest jackpot in U.S. history.

The prize has grown so large because no one has matched all six balls in more than two months, so the jackpot has grown after every drawing.

The odds of winning the giant prize is one in 292.2 million.

Powerball is played in 44 states as well as Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Re: How to decide the right time to Pull Out your investment in crypto?
by
Rising Suns
on 20/08/2017, 12:31:38 UTC
i think you have the point to decide when the right time to pull out your investment because its all about how much you want to take profit in crypto. my suggestion is don't be greedy when you can take the highest profit because the price will be drop suddenly and you only can take small profit. its happen to me in the past so i think its better if you have a set price on how much you wan to sell and take that profit.
Yes, sometimes greed can be bad. Rather than expecting price to rise better take out initial investment and sell only those coins. Rest all can keep for rolling. As fluctuation can totally shatter the market.

My favorite quote about investing -- yes, even better than "Buy low, sell high" -- is "Pigs get fat. Hogs get slaughtered." In other words, it pays to be greedy, but not too greedy. None of us can predict the future, but with a little self-discipline, we can take advantage of trends and make a good return on our investment.

I believe in dollar-cost averaging, a diverse portfolio of cryptocurrencies, and a long-term view. It's very, very hard to avoid getting caught up in the highs and lows of the crypto markets and hearing tales of everyone else "hitting it big" with ABC or XYZ coin. Make a plan, stay the course, and HODL!

It will be very interesting to observe the price action of BTC as it gets to the important psychological mark of $5,000. Will it blow through that important milestone on the first try? Or will it take several days/weeks/months for that barrier to be broken?

Really fascinating time to be involved with Bitcoin...
