I have a friend who is not very techie and has someone else buying crypto for him. When he found out I was a member of this forum, he wanted me to ask this question for him:

"If a person has their electroneum coins in a paper wallet, how can you send them to an exchange without having to go through a KYC verified wallet?"


Are you asking....if you can send directly from paper wallet to an exchange, without using the my.electroneum.com website?

After careful consideration of your project, I am investing because you seem skilled at associating yourself with Bitcoin, in ways that will fool enough people to get involved.

This seems to be your biggest quality. In my opinion, this will not work long term, but will be successful at producing significant short term gains.

Im impressed with your strategy and execution.

Cryptopia defeats electroneum project

Nope, the stupidity of the team does.
You don't fork Monero if you don't want privacy features, you don't fork to an anti ASIC algo then revert to please a sh**ty exchange. You don't promote mass adoption with South Africa. You don't claim for months and months on your twitter to have a patent that was never awarded, you don't force KYC for 3$ a month airdrop...

0/5

You don't fork Monero if you don't want privacy features


Monero has a great codebase that can be used as a basis for ETN other than privacy features. Its been tried and tested, and would be a great source for a coin privacy based or not.


you don't fork to an anti ASIC algo then revert to please a sh**ty exchange


Not sure where you got that the revert to asic friendly algo as to "please an exchange" That had nothing to do with it. ASICs make the network MUCH more secure, and still allows ETN to reach their long term goals.

Before the switch back the network wasnt near secure and was open to an attack from entities with the proper resources. This possibility was NOT acceptable, hence the switch back.


 You don't promote mass adoption with South Africa.

South Africa is a GREAT PLACE TO PROMOTE MASS ADOPTION, and to get a foothold with millions and millions of users, AND ITS ALREADY BEGINNING TO WORK


you don't force KYC for 3$ a month airdrop...


KYC is necessary to land the business partnerships necessary for ETN to reach its goals.



 You don't claim for months and months on your twitter to have a patent that was never awarded

Give it up man. I understand you are part of the team and you need to defend your project, but ETN killed itself when it went full KYC. Nobody likes to do KYC, in crypto nobody wants to do that, and regular non-crypto people wont bother to do KYC when they can easily enter the crypto market buying any other coin without the need to do KYC. There are plenty of website and also BTC ATM's around the world where you can buy BTC/ETH/LTC etc without any need for KYC. ETN keeps talking about "mass adoption" as if by mentioning it mass adoption is guaranteed, it isnt, and they have used that phrase so many times for the last 18 months, that it has lost its power. Saying "mass adoption" doesnt work anymore, so no need to continue using it to try to convince anyone.

I have a very good memory, because I have been since before the ICO.

1) First ETN sold itself as a gaming coin.

2) Then it sold itself as a privacy coin.

3) Then it sold itself as a "mass adoption" coin with the cloud airdrop that was supposed to be used by millions of people worldwide.

4) Then it tried selling itself as a coin with their own ETN cell phone.

All of that failed, and now its all excuses "we forked monero because its a good chain to fork from, not because of the privacy features", come on man, either you are new into the etn project or you are lying, ETN tried to sell itself originally as a privacy coin (this was after they changed their mind because originally it tried to sell itself as a gaming coin and this is pre ico days). My point is, now its all excuses after excuses.

KYC really killed the project whether you want to accept it or not.

Have a good day.



ETN was never billed as a privacy coin. Monero was just its base. Moneros privacy features were turned off

And no one ever said ETN was a cell phone coin either. ETN has its own cell phone for marketing purposes in South Africa.

Initially, there were plans for ETN to become involved in the gaming industry, but it has evolved past that long ago.

KYC is necessary for the business partnerships critical for Mass Adoption.

No one has ever said Mass Adoption is automatic. It will be a long and hard road, but well worth the wait to those who have patience.

Tomorrow is the last day for the ICO, but is there any news about the exchange where TELE will be listed? a few days ago I received an e-mail that TELE would soon be listed in exchange after the ICO was finished, but no mention of which exchange

I've been asking the admins on telegram but they keep saying NDA wouldn't let them say anything. Since they are starting with ETH pairing, I have a few suspects in sight. Gonna double down on a few

Is this confirmed that there is a great suspicion of this project and we should investigate the truth of this project together to stop the growing scammer.

Great suspicion? LOL

Are you joking?

This is one of the best projects out right now.

Things are moving along fine, and they just made adjustments to speed things up, so be patient, as we are in a transition period right now. Wont be long and all will be just fine.

Ill never get people that go straight to "scam" the minute something doesnt flow just the way they want, or at the speed they expect.

Very very far from a scam.

Sucks that this coin is about to die.


Almost a Half Million USD in ETN has been traded in the last 24 hours.

Youll be happy to hear its far from death
And its held its USD value regardless of high or low BTC prices which says alot.

None of the plans have reached a point to give it a whole lot more value yet but in time it will

I like the project's business model but I was wondering on how you are going to compete with the services offered by tech giants e.g. Facebook's Messenger, and Apple's face Time, etc, that has the ability to provide end users with real time video call and instant messaging services worldwide provided they have internet connection?

The prices they charge are over-inflated because they know they can get away with it because they ALL charge WAY TO MUCH. The prices they charge are the result of a few very large companies cornering the market and boosting up the prices just because they can.

The prices do not reflect what it actually costs to deliver the services to the consumer.

TELE can compete with these larger companies because they do not have greedy executives with zero integrity that care only about looking good to their shareholders, and will rape their customers that essentially have nowhere else to turn...

Ok

Glad you guys posted how you felt about everything.

You have both stated your points

Lets leave it at that.

@islapdonkey you can not attack him and call him an asshole here on this thread


@snowyNNN you can not attack him and call him a tumor here on this thread


Lets especially make sure we refrain from the personal attacks, and like I said you have both stated your side with references and links. So lets chill now thanks

 You giving him to much compliment by suggesting that he came up with the tumor comment. This guy is yet to have an original thought/provide a valid counter.

 That tumor comment was left by one of the scammers i busted. An individual that if you clicked on the profile name, has multiple negative trust from the moderators of the form due to his association with me:) So anyone reading, please do take the time and visit every thread listed by the genius above. You might be surprised to see a thread i even created against the scam group, been used as link to discredit me cos someone didn't take the time to research their postSmiley

 So, again the team member already stated that they blew the entire 650 BTC, so he can use the scammers favorite line that a\m doing this to blackmail the team Grin

 Now lets go back to the core of the discussion, which is providing that clear detail for 650 BTC in spending. Let verify that the spending is legit before advising others that it is safe to place their fund under their guidance.

And since that parasite, keeps quoting that particular acct, here is a link to that that profile trust hx. u can see that the negative trust is actually from a moderator, not some random acct



The team did not blow the BTC

They have given us a breakdown of what the BTC was spent. You are counting incorrectly. The XULT Exchange is no $50,000 exchange. It is easily 5 times that. Things add up.

The team is very trusting. They have done nothing but be honest to us. Do I like the current situation maybe not so much but you take things too far.

You act like you are an investor. Now lets see you provide some proofs as I dont believe your bullshit. You are against us not with us. Go away troll

Did you know that Excc coins can be STAKED as well as mined?

Yes, you can get more Excc for your Excc!
Staking is buying tickets and when the ticket gets voted you get your stake(ticket price) + MORE Excc-coins.

The basics on how to stake can be found here: https://excc.co/start-staking-and-mining-using-our-new-desktop-wallet-exilibrium/



This is something I wrote to bring some clarity to questions that folks have about the ticket price and it's fluctuations:

"Ticket price stays the same (in Excc) for a buying window of 144 blocks.

In every block max 20 new tickets can be purchased.

So, 2880 tickets total.

After every 144 blocks , the price of the ticket gets revaluated and changes according to how many tickets
there are total in the ticket/votingpool.

Now, TICKET POOL SIZE is
48,633 (118.73% of target 40,960) notice the TARGET!

So generally one can say that the ticket price rises when there are OVER! 100% of the TARGET amount on 40960 tickets in the pool.

And the price of a ticket goes lower when there are UNDER! 100% tickets of the target amount available for voting.

The price of the ticket dropped recently to about 30 Excc/ticket. This was because tickets were not being bought
and the TICKET POOL was getting as low as 80% of the target amount. As the price was low some smart individuals : )
bought blocksfull of tickets, replenishing the ticket pool. The price of a ticket can rise only a certain amount after 144 blocks, so the price rose very gently
and blocks were full of bought tickets.

Now that there are 118% of the TARGET POOL, for the price of a ticket to begin to get lower it will need the ticketpool to diminish.
5 tickets(usually 5, might be 3 or 4..) are VOTED every block and those come out of the Ticket pool.

The TICKET VOTING system combined with MINING (gpu's)  SECURE Excc blockchain making it robust and beautiful."


Great post, as I think that is something most overlook, or dont understand



Understanding the Proof-Of-Stake System


Stakeholders will be required to secure a ticket for eligibility to participate in the stake mining process.

Tickets can be secured by locking an amount of EXCC. With these tickets, stakeholders can cast a single vote per ticket.
After voting, the ticket delivers a reward in addition to the original value of the Ticket Price.

Tickets for the voting process are randomly selected and the duration of this voting exercise can last anywhere
from 1 to 71 days (14 days average), however, there is a 0.5% probability that the tickets can become invalid
before selection for a vote.

Upon expiration, the original Ticket Price is refunded without a reward. For each
mined block, there must be five votes; if the votes fall below five, a deduction will be made from the miner’s
reward as a penalty. The mined blocks are permitted to have as many as 20 new ticket purchases. It takes 256
blocks for a new ticket to mature before it can be added to the Ticket Pool and eligible to be selected during
the voting process.



Some crucial variables that one should know while staking include the following:


• For every 144 blocks (approximately 6 hours) the algorithm for the stake difficulty runs a calculation
 to generate a new Ticket Price to maintain the Ticket Pool size so the target size of 40,960 tickets will
not be exceeded. In this instance, the 144-block window is called the Stake Difference Window Size.

• For every single 144-block window, users wishing to stake their EXCC coins are mandated to pay
 the Ticket Price/Stake Difficulty price.

• The Ticket Pool refers to the overall number of the tickets available on the EXCC network.

• The Ticket Fee refers to the rate that is mandatorily added to the ticket purchases as an incentive
 to encourage Proof-of-Work miners to add the ticket to a new block. The Ticket Fee is usually represented
as the EXCC/kB fee rate per ticket purchase. This means that for transactions of higher values, the user will
pay a higher fee. For example, the purchases made for solo staking tickets are valued at about 300 Bytes;
this indicates that a Ticket Fee will require 0.1 EXCC to be spent only when the ticket is added to a block.

• At lower Ticket Prices for a single Ticket Window, users can witness the formation of a market,
where multiple stakeholders will attempt to buy tickets before the window closes. However, if the
 Ticket Price  is not very low and the deal seems profitable, the default rate -  Ticket Fee of 0.001 EXCC/kB
 will be sufficient to be added to a block. If a ticket is selected for a vote, the wallet with the voting rights 16
must be online to cast a vote or the ticket will be recorded as a miss, and the user will not be rewarded for
that ticket. The stakepools offer a solution for users who cannot be online 24/7 to vote.

• The stakepools are used by the stakeholders to carry out transactions for ticket purchases that provide
stakepool voting rights for a user’s tickets. Voting can be done on the user’s behalf for a small fee (usually
less than 7%) paid for participation. This fee is charged to enable the maintenance of the three servers being
hosted to run the stakepool. Known as the Pool Fee, it is charged for the minimal PoS reward.



The Lifecycle of a Ticket


It is quite easy to buy tickets for the PoS. After purchase, the ticket on the mainnet (there are multiple para
meters for test net) will pass through different stages during its lifetime.


1. After purchasing a ticket through Exilibrium or the exccwallet, the individual transaction charge
for each purchase is expected to be Ticket Price + Ticket Fee.

2. The purchased ticket is added to the Mempool where it will be kept until it is mined by PoW miners.
A maximum of 20 new tickets are mined into the different blocks.

3. Blocks with a higher Ticket Fee for transactions are used for the high priority tickets. It should be noted that
the Ticket Fee is valued at EXCC per KB for each transaction. Some transaction sizes such as the solo ticket
purchase are 298 bytes, while others such as pool ticket purchases are 539 bytes.

4. A - This is for tickets mined into a block; it assumes the state of an immature ticket for 256 blocks
(approximately 10 hours). The immature tickets are not eligible for voting, and at this stage, the
ticket fee cannot be refunded.
    B - In the case where the users’ ticket is not mined, Ticket Price and Ticket Fee
are refunded to the account used for purchase.

5. At maturity (256 blocks), the ticket is added to the Ticket Pool where it can be used for voting.

6. The possibility of a ticket being selected for voting is dependent on a Poisson distribution, which
is done in an average of 14 days after which the ticket stands a 50% chance of being voted.
 
7. Regarding the size of the target pool (40960 tickets), randomly, the tickets have a 99.5% chance of voting
within a period of 71 days (approximately 2.3 months). It is expected that the ticket will be invalidated
if it is not voted within this time frame. Subsequently, a refund of the Ticket Price will be made.

8. In a situation where a ticket is unresponsive or when two valid blocks exist close to each other,
it may miss the call to vote. If this happens, the user will receive a refund valued at the original Ticket Price.

9. If a ticket is voted or missed/invalidated, the funds (price of a ticket and the subsidy,
 (excluding the fee) attain a maturity status for the next 256 blocks before it is released. In the case of
missed/invalidated tickets, the transaction will be revoked, and the locked ticket asset is released.


 Please Note: Only missed tickets can be submitted for a revocation, users are not permitted to
proceed with the revocation of a ticket until it has been recorded as missed.

Like any other new coin right now its new and still in third stage of development.

I agree with you thats the goal. Once theycan do that we will already be there. If that were the case now it would certainly be in the top 100 and by marketcap would put the coin at 2 to 4 dollars. Its around 1 cent now. So yeah the potential for insane ROI is definitely there
