#Edon is added on ICOcountdown.com
although the date is not accurate, it will be announced soon

I made the website for the coin, the developer in charge is very responsible don't miss this one.

I will suggest taking in consideration #Edoncoin.

I very interesting project, from the perspective of new technology. It is build on node.js, and supports a new Bock generation Protocol the Proof of Line. It lets you wait in a line, and it doesn't require heavy hardware to operate. Also they are implementing the so called "Speculative Forging" this will allow traders to swap their positions in the line, thus earning coins for their trade!!!!
Also they have an intention to move in the Dapp business... so it is worth checking out!

I built the website for the coin, and the dev is very proficient, not to mention that he is totally open to the public!!!
The sale will be on bittrex, so your funds will be secure. Don't miss it

Just confirmed the dates with Bill Shihara, the head of Bittrex.com

The ICO will take place on Bittrex.com, starting April 18th and ending May 5th.

Details will be posted later.

@simplein Thank you for letting us know. I'll give andy a hand these days, to finish the video faster, why does it take that long?

It dawned on me what if i wanted to store a video on the blockchain, i can't! 1MB limit.
i want to store a video in an permanent, unalterable, easily accessible,  way. the blockchain is perfect for that.
i guess i could sign the video and save that sig to the blockchain, use that as proof the video is authentic. but that feels like a work around.

is there a TX_Data_Max? should there be?

how much fee would a 8mb file cost?

is this abuse of block space?

My first bitcoins came from Primedice signature campaign way back September 2014. From then on, I started to buy a little amount of btc every month and I have never failed to do so for the past 10 months.

How'd you get your first bitcoins (faucets aside) and what did you do to them?

I will be getting married this year,  and will need to buy a diamond ring.
I've decided that this is a good opportunity to bring more companies on board with Bitcoin.

My fiancé agreed to allow me to buy the ring with Bitcoins, with the condition that I have it by the end of March April 2012.
That day is quickly approaching,  so I need the Bitcoin community's help to make this happen.

Bitcoins are a perfect fit for online retailers of Diamonds.
Diamonds are a commodity that can easily be resold,  and are not traceable, and are therefore a common target for thieves using stolen credit card numbers.
Bitcoin removes all of these risks.

My initial goal was to get www.bluenile.com to accept Bitcoins as payment directly on their website.
BlueNile.com is the worlds largest online diamond retailer.
They are a publicly traded company with annual revenue of around $350M USD.

In several emails with Blue Nile,  I have promised to buy a ring of at least $50,000 USD from them if they publicly accept Bitcoins on their website.
They have shown some interest,  but have not given any kind of firm commitment yet.

I'm hoping that with some additional interest from the Bitcoin community, we can convince them to accept Bitcoins directly on their website.

If you agree with this idea, please contact them to let them know you would also like them to accept Bitcoins as payment.
http://www.bluenile.com/contact-blue-nile

Your request will be even more influential if there is an actual product on their website that you promise to buy if they accept Bitcoin payments.

Lets make this happen!

Share with us what's your main reason for buying bitcoins?

This wallet still does not allow to send any amount larger than ~17500 BIC. As with the older versions, it gives the "transaction creation failed" error.

For more experienced traders (or at least some experience) there. Which would be the minimum to invest in order to have a chance to profit from trading? I would like to start as low has 10k satoshis, but as I have seen, many exchanges have minimums and minimums fees and that does not feel reasonable.

Let's say that we put a goal to earn 20k satoshis a day (on average) from trading... How much would you see you have to employ to achieve that?

wat ever the price of Bitcoin their is no doubt the value of the Bitcoin network and its "users" is astronomical

I remember the day well: February 10th, 2009. Back then, there was a consensus amongst stock punters that TARP and the Fed bailouts had worked. A surprising many of them had mixed feeling about the bailouts' propriety, but pretty-much every punter agreed on their efficacy. Starting in November of '08, coalescing in December and solidifying in January, the sentiment was that Bailout Nation had turned the tide of the vicious bear market of '08.

Until that fateful late-morning when Tim Geithner Himself gave a speech. About TARP.

To a naïf like me, then mercenary enough to be interested only in a profitable punt, the speech sounded pretty good. But not to the vets: not to them! And boy, were they quick. Quick enough to kickstart a blizzard of selling that made for a four-week bear market within a bear market. It didn't end until March 9, 2009, when the S&P 500 bottomed out at 666 and change.

----------

Right now, or so I hope, the crypto-2.0 markets look a lot like that scary February. So I hope.

Fact is, I was lulled by a Cryptsy-based altcoin index which indicated that the altcoin tide had turned earlier this year. Never mind that Cryptsy is full of 1.0 alts which benefitted from the old-is-new-again resuscitation fad. That index, plus the big BTC finally turning the tide, had me figurin' that the dark days were over for 2.0 and 2.0-related coins.

Of course, I made the classic mistake of trying to catch the falling knife. With one glaring exception, and one not-so-noticeable exception, the last month has been 2.0 hell.

Just below, in the spirit of a good-old-fashioned mutual gripe session, is a Polo-powered round-up of the blizzard woes of Crypto 2.0. Happy HELLoween!


BITSHARES (BTS): Oh, Lordy. To think I was publicly patting myself on the back for buying 10,000 below 1500 satoshis. I shoulda known: those heady, exciting >2500 days when BTS had elbowed aside Etherium as the #1 volume leader on Polo was the time to abandon the Bitship. After 100,000 TPS turned into 100 TPS "for now," it was all aboard for the bear train. Express trip to new lows! 1300 on your left!

If there were any more handy time for "sell on the [just before the] news," Bitshares was it.

DASH (DASH): Of course, 0.01 will hold up. Sure it will. (Now, 0.00723 and wobbling.)

RIPPLE (XRP): Wowie...just wow. The days when Ripple was a bargain below 3000 satoshis have vanished like 1500. It's now bouncing up to 1483.

MONERO (XMR): More 2.0 crow to eat. Remember the pumpathon here when it had sunk to 0.002? That did mark a turning point, in a way: it did manage to lumber up to about 0.00225. But afterwards, it went downie-bye. Currently 0.00129.

COUNTERPARTY (XCP): If it was a "50% off" bargain at 0.005, it's giggity-giggity a golly-sakes bigger bargain at 0.00305!

BOOLBERRY (BBR): Sometimes the bear shows mercy...or absent-mindedness Boolberry has had a nice bounce, up to 4712 satoshis. Never mind what its longer-term chart looks like: a nice bounce is a nice bounce.

BITCOINDARK (BTCD): Currently 0.00256. Ouch...just, ouch.

GEMZ (GEMZ): Well, it still does bounce off 5000 satoshis!

BURSTCOIN (BURST): More mercy, or forgetfulness, from the bear. It's holding more-or-less up at 14. "Like BURST at 40, the warriors are blown away by the wind."

QORA (QORA): Revamped revived, retooled, and ready...to reintroduce itself to levels seen when everyone was standing around waiting for something to happen.

FACTOM (FCT): Hi, IPO price! Long time no see! Aren't you glad I'm back?


And of course, I saved the most depressing one for last................


NXT (NXT): Of all the above, this one's been the biggest kneecapper. Even back in the dark days of later last year, NXT still held up. Back then, I was blithely assuring everyone that below-5000 satoshis was a bargain.

Good one on me, I tell you. NXT is now less than half of that 5000 "bargain." Its current 2275 has reintroduced it to prices from two weeks after it was launched.

Jeez, this one's a real kneecapping capstone for the 2015 HELLoween Tour. 


Those Exceptions:

Go figure. Not all that long ago, Etherium was being gnawed on like the others. 0.0015...oww.

But just when it confounded zero-sum thinkers everywhere in altcoin land, it leapt upwards and became a plausible "demand-hog" once again. Talk about a hard-bouncin' trick! And if ETH bestowed a treat on ye, congrats.

The second exception, oddly enough, is the under-the-radar coin that I'm still associated with. Unlike all those others above, with the exception of Etherium later, HORIZON (HZ) managed a nice rickety-rocket rise from ~30 to 55. As the luck of the damned would indicate, it's since reintroduced itself to the low 30s. But, for whatever reason, the 30 level is holding up quite nicely.

Nicely as of now, me pretties: nicely as of now...

Well, that wraps up the gripeathon for me. Got any 2.0 gripes of your own? Might as well share 'em on this thread. Happy HELLoween!
   

People are becoming increasingly accustomed to using bank cards. Now, with the increasing penetration of mobile and P2P payment systems, the necessity to use cash is quickly becoming obsolete. 
Which do you think is the relation between bitcoin and credit card? Don't you think the use of credit card works as the same way as bitcoin does?

Not necessarily true. If you look at formation of the name you will see the point of the project. But the again it is a niche so if you don't know what Node is, you will struggle with EDON.

But it is not the worst possible name, certainly.
