Hello all. sometime back I was trading one particular currency and at some point the site confiscated a very substance amount of my long term invested units. How is one to know what the limits are to utilizing the market in terms of volume?

I think i have solved it as there is no way to trade the lowest amount on the current exchange my PAC is on and as to why the volume on the site has it going down makes sense.  People are sending it to exchanges where it can be traded. Thank you everyone for your imput.

I highly doubt Nvidia or AMD had any part in creating Bitcoin as a way to increase demand for their products.

That being said, they sure are benefiting from it, and they certainly would benefit from ensuring that PoW continues to be the dominant force of the blockchain.


I fully agree but i would wager all my cryptos on them to have created ETH to boost sales so production lines would not be bleak.  a car and a video card a two very seperate things.... do you know how many car plants shut down?

No I think it just makes logical sense. The process of mining and the process of rendering graphics are both the kind of tasks that stand to benefit greatly from parallel processing, so it makes sense that graphics cards are optimized for both tasks. It's just a coincidence IMO.

Also I think the hardware industry would be perfectly fine without bitcoin/crypto mining. They have a lot of other massive and rapidly growing businesses like gaming, AI, etc.

some time ago bill gates was quoted as saying " I dont see any reason why people would need anything more then windows 3.1"  with that being said and video cards being able to produce more then necessary in terms of graphics, I find only one thing driving this beast, that being mining. The AMD vega apparently being sold with double the amount of memory that can currently be utilized only leads me to think of wasteful or rather future production in mind.  the nvidia 1060-1080 all have the same processing units with only the more expensive models ie 1080 running at full potential.  This isnt about graphics or proper marketing ethics.  There is a reason your bumber is not made of hemp fiber and its not because hemp isnt useful.

Can some one please comment on why then tangle is not taking the cryptos by storm.

Does anyone think mining was created to boost or save the tech industry in terms of hard goods?  I have followed all of this for sometime including prices of video cards and such, 2015 was to be projected as the worst year for computer/part sales.   It would seem alot more plausable to have coins that can not be mined such as IOTA where as i understand it, computers are bouncing small verification between 3 algos that tangle to make a whole instead of a DAG that never stops growing?

Hi I recently traded some bit coin for an altcoin that has a buy in of the lowest amount .00000001 and there are no buy orders only sell orders up, The volume has spiked 17-24 and now down to 13 is this a bad thing? they have a web site and seem legit. is there any hope for this alt coin should i try to sell everything to get my initial trade back?

What is your coin?
If the valume down and thats not good thing in my opinion. Its good thing if the volume increase.
However, if there is no buyer i think the coin has no future and it might be risk. Be carefull.

It is the PAC coin i read threw some of the articles on here it shows some promise in come February and march.  I will start tracking the volume on market cap to find a more accurate outlook.  I also feel like it  a scam because once and a while i see the volume on the sell orders jump around to make it appear as if it will start the buy cycle making more people throw money in a bottomless pit.

So do things start to look up come February for this coin? I read some of the recent posts and despite the argue about eggs and chickens is there light at the end of this tunnel?

I would suggest that you also find things other than computer transactions, like diversify into the real world. I've heard of BTC ATM's  popping up. consider opeing up a shop with that being some of your key features.  See if there are conferences in your area talking to people in the industry face to face is sometimes eye opening. Good luck!

I see so much contradiction in the outlook for bitcoin, and alt coins are tightly connected to bitcoin.  Like many have said do your research and take your time in making any investments.

Like Previously mentioned Deep Onion shows much promise and the charts can not lie, the web site is very professional. With a solid outline of planed expansion/integration and of course growth.  For A less expensive coin with massive potential as well, I would recommend MANA which looks to be a very promising project in the works.

Both are free to play so I wouldn't be able to choose one over the other and have a large player base/active community.   Although i seem to enjoy LoL over Dota for similar reasons, better interface and graphics.

I was reading an article last week about bitcoin and that in the next couple months it will have a limit on the creation of any new coins. Is this true and if so would that drive the price up?
