How you guys decide if it's a good ping?
The bot sends dozens of pings everyday.
Trying to get in on every single one would be impossible - so how you decide which ones are The Ones?

So, as right now, HitBTC is unreliable, right?
Just checking, as I would love to sell some SNT right now, and that's the only exchange with it for now.

Welp my transaction got "refreshed" (The age got one hour lower) and now it just vanished out of thin air.
I guess the network just won't deal with that amount of transactions.

Here: https://slacknation.github.io/medium/018/

It says 355,816.69 ETH is unconfirmed right now. Hard ceiling or not, this is over.

They didn't follow the 50 Gwei max gas price, they got refused.

As far as I can see, only whitelisted addresses got through using high gas prices.
All the rest of us mortals are waiting for confirmations, the network is really congested.
All transactions that were confirmed were refused by the smart contract because of the gas price, none of the 50 Gwei ones fell through yet.
So maybe there's still time to try and invest.
I don't know, max you gonna lose is transaction tax (1 cent of ETH maximum)

Sent it seconds after the block #3903900 was confirmed, I guess.
Sent it in two different nodes, also.
But it's still pending, and may not be confirmed on time.

About the transactions that went through with more than 50 Gwei gas price, I asked Sebastian (dev team) and he answered:

They sent this in the Slack channel:

But as we can see, it's not true at all.
I think we may have gotten tricked.

Mine is pending right now: https://etherscan.io/tx/0x2f31b99a39f1ed7c5475f70c650de3d8dd49fb7333057c805b787867fc65e7a4
I thought they had someway to block high gas prices. The max gas price in the site was only a suggestion, then?

Less than 25 blocks to go, should be less than 10 minutes.
So excited for this, my first ICO <3

Yeah someone fell for it
That's kinda sad

Is there any way to customize what boards appear in Recent Unread Topics?
I'd like to remove boards from languages I can't speak, and off-topic boards.
Is there anyway to do this, or any other method to follow on multiple boards without going on every single one to check if there's anything new?

Thanks in advance!

Mining is risky, as trading or anything related to altcoins. If it's spending money and you can live without it, wait for the bitcoin hard fork and ethereum proof of work discussions to conclude before using up all your money.

You can use a gaming desktop to mine and get some money by the end of the month. I'm using nicehash and getting around 100 USD month with a 1060 (after electricity costs) - and I just mine when my PC is idle. It's not get rich money, but it's enough to pay some bills.

Whois is a service that shows who's the owner of a domain. You can see the Whois of 51asic here: https://www.whois.com/whois/51asic.ru


It only shows that they are registered by a private person (And not a company, that's a red flag).

It's easier to just tax exchanges. If you cash out, you get taxed - if you hold, nothing happens.
It's nightly impossible to keep a record of every single bitcoin wallet, moreover with single-use wallets and paper wallets.
If you get paid on bitcoins, the tax should be collected on the payout.
The government won't be checking your bank account to get your taxes, it will just tax your transactions and products. It kinda doesn't matter what currency you are using.

I'm having a hard time trying to understand why anyone would want a country with bitcoin as the main form of currency. As a really volatile coin, prices would raise and fall almost daily, as globalization made almost every single product international. Living in the island would be a really terrible experience, or just plainly impossible. It would make bitcoin a "real" currency... But that would change nothing on how things work today. It's a bad idea, in general.
