Re: Five reasons 2018 could be the best year yet for cryptocurrencies.
I have read articles about many businesses that have stopped accepting Bitcoin because of how volitile the price is on a minute-by-minute basis. It makes sense to me too. There is always a risk that by the time a transaction for a product has been made and the Bitcoin subsequently traded for dollars that the value has gone down and the merchant ends up losing money.
Merchants aren't losing anything due to the volatility, which is why I don't understand why they even use it as an excuse. In let's say, +95% of the cases, merchants make use of third party payment processors such as BitPay. BitPay takes care of everything when it comes to people using Bitcoin to pay for stuff. Merchants themselves don't even deal with Bitcoin at all -- they just get the fiat value of the Bitcoin transaction (minus the BitPay fee) on their bank account. Merchants however do have the option with BitPay to keep a certain part of every transaction in Bitcoin, but thus far I haven't seen any merchant do so and publicly talk about it.
That's a good point. Thanks for the info!
Re: Five reasons 2018 could be the best year yet for cryptocurrencies.
Investing without any prior research and understanding of the market in question is always risky. Investing without risk doesn't exist.
Truth.
In most cases wealthy retired individuals follow that route in order to gain some form of annual interest over their capital. I personally have nothing against it if others are doing it, but I will never allow anyone to invest the money I worked my entire life for. The easiest way to make money is never a way to actually become wealthy.
I do agree with you. However, those companies are in it to make money as well. They make money when we invest our money with them. It is in their best interest to ensure they invest our money wisely. Still, you do have a point that there is always a risk.
We're getting there already. I am not exactly sure which firm it was, but I have seen coverage on TV where that firm has explained to invest in crypto on behalf of those who find it too risky to get involved in themselves. I think it's just a matter of time before this will expand further, where at some point even banks might get involved in this. Financial institutions are holding back due to the lack of actual regulations.
That is interesting. Now that you mention it, I think I may have also read somewhere that cryptos will be or are already being traded on some commodities markets. I will have to look further into that.
the Bible confirms this
The Bible doesn't do anything.
You take what you want from the vague and outdated scriptures.
A thousand people will look at the bible, and not one will agree on what it meant.
Very true, Vod. As a Christian, I will be the first to admit that the Bible is very much open to interpretation. And let's face facts, the Bible was written by Bronze Age men who had little to no understanding of science and math. And they certainly didn't have telescopes. So they interpreted what they saw the best way they could.
But come on, Flat Earthers. It's 2018! Shouldn't it be more than obvious by now that when the Bible states "the firmament" that they were talking about the sky, not some silly dome. And the "separation of the waters above the firmament from the waters below the firmament" still doesn't mean there is a dome. The waters above the firmament are obviously the rain clouds and the waters below the firmament are the rivers, lakes, and seas.
There is no grand conspiracy to keep people ignorant of the "truth". NASA is real. Space is real. The Earth isn't flat. And it sure as hell isn't only 6,000 years old. Maybe instead of misinterpreting the Bible and posting YouTube videos and calling it "evidence" that the Earth is flat, you all should spend more time reading books written in the last 100 years, or, even better, go visit a Natural History museum. If you want spiritual guidance, read the Bible. If you want scientific fact, look elsewhere.
I think NASA has massive data centres on the ice wall. I've heard rumors that they tap into the dome's trillions of volts and they run their secret farms with Black Arrow Prospero Miners. They use to have the X1 and X3 but have since moved on to their X32. The X32 is available for insiders to buy for about 6K and is guaranteed to mine more than 30 BTC in it's life time! The insiders also get to plug their miners in at home into a "dome receptacle" giving them free power (they have always enjoyed free power at home now they can mine with it!).
NASA needs to control the worlds electrical supply by being the only ones that can tap into the domes trillions of volts and distribute it throughout the world. Thats why no one except the insiders can know about the dome and everyone else is taught the GE theory.
NASA and all space launches are just high altitude planes used to deploy new connections to the dome. You have to make the connection high up on the dome because that is where the trillions of volts are stable enough for us to connect to!
Now they have ALL the angles covered and have had for centuries, until Nikon... How the fuck did we forget to buy up Nikon to stop the release of the only fucking thing that can foil our evil plot...!!!
Evil plots to control the universe always leave one little angle open that can bring down the house of cards. Thankfully Notbatman has finally figured out NASAs Thermal Exhaust Port!

I know! Who would have thought that a Nikon P900 camera would do more to prove the lies of NASA than a 14" telescope ever could?

Re: Five reasons 2018 could be the best year yet for cryptocurrencies.
I don't feel the same. This isn't a playing ground. It's probably one of the most brutal markets out there. If you don't understand how this market works, and don't have a clue about what Bitcoin is or does, you are bound to lose big time. It's called gambling if you blindly put your money into something hoping that it will result in profits.
I get what you're saying, but in my opinion, it is just as risky to invest in the stock market if you don't know what you're doing. The main difference is that there are plenty of investment firms out there, such as TD Ameritrade and Fidelity, where people get paid to invest your money on your behalf. Bitcoin doesn't have that yet. I do agree with you that people who know nothing about Bitcoin and have pipe dreams of investing a few thousand dollars and becoming millionaires over night should not be taking this risk.
Re: Five reasons 2018 could be the best year yet for cryptocurrencies.
2018 might be a good year for some of the major altcoins, but I have my doubts about the performance of Bitcoin. Two of the major things Bitcoin needs to address is transaction speeds and fees. I have read articles about many businesses that have stopped accepting Bitcoin because of how volitile the price is on a minute-by-minute basis. It makes sense to me too. There is always a risk that by the time a transaction for a product has been made and the Bitcoin subsequently traded for dollars that the value has gone down and the merchant ends up losing money. I think now more than ever what Bitcoin needs is stability in its "value". I feel bad for the poor bastards who invested their life savings in Bitcoin when it surged to $20k just to have it shed over half its value in a matter of days. That may not be much to cry about for the Winklevoss twins, but for the common hard working man or woman, that must have really hurt.
The Sun, Moon, stars, planets and rainbows are all reflected projections off of the domes mirrored surface.
Wait, so if the sun and moon are reflected projections off the dome, then where are they actually located? If they are rotating inside the dome at an altitude of 5,000 miles and they are also reflecting off the "mirrored surface" of the dome, then wouldn't we always see two suns and two moons? Kinda like if you hold a flashlight in front of a mirror, you have the actual flashlight and the reflection of the flashlight both visible at the same time.
Re: [ANN] [TOR] Torcoin - X11 PoW - Tor Integrated Crypto - Torcoin.org
ANYONE KNOWS WHERE TO FIND THE TORCOIN NODES???
You'll have better luck finding the Loch Ness monster. This coin was a scam from day 1.
Notice how they call me a troll for wanting authenticated photographic negatives instead of just trusting digital images from NASA.
And yet, you also have not provided one single authenticated photographic negative of the ice wall or the dome.

Random aside: My mind was wandering on matters involving texture mapping to triangle meshes, and it occured to me that the "Flat Earth" map is merely a texture map for a spherical surface.
I always get a good laugh when they post that as "proof". They like to think the UN symbol and that earth pattern on the floor of some international airport is "proof" too. Well, I'm sure that just as soon as the UN decides to use 3D flags and symbols, and that airport decides to put a giant globe in the middle of the floor that the FE's will just say it is a conspiracy.
Here's to the soon-to-be 500th page of this ridiculous thread!
So just to be clear : you only need to hold ZeitCoin in a wallet and it will start to generate interest all by itself ?
Does this even work if the computer is turned off ?

I think so, but you dont even need it. The only reason that zeitcoin is not getting really big at the moment is the fucking cryptopia website. That thing is crashed so the trading is not big right now
That may or may not be the case. I will say that Cryptopia's LTC and Doge markets being down certainly isn't helping matters. But in the mean time, there are several other exchanges that we can deal with and would no doubt greatly appreciate the increase in volume.

when staking, ZEIT is actually mining new zeitcoins, so your wallet needs to be running, encrypted, synchronized, and unlocked
Exactly what groggin wrote here. And yes, so long as there are Zeitcoins in your wallet, and the above mentioned requirements are met, you will see new coins being minted. Keep in mind that this is not something that happens constantly, so if you go a few days without minting then you shouldn't get overly concerned.
Of course Zeit can, and should, reach 100 satoshi. I think now with ULI that can be even more achievable due to the much, much lower number of new Zeit being minted daily than before. What we need is more investors who are in it for the long run and not looking to pump and dump for a small profit. It really blows my mind that there is a 1.4 billion Zeit buy wall at 1 Litoshi on Cryptopia. There is much money to be had with Zeit and I personally never want to see it get dumped to that point. The price is still well cheap enough to make a nice profit, if that is someone's end game, where they don't have to hope for a dump that low to buy in.
And as a side note, those who have sell orders at the 70 Litoshi wall should really think about moving those orders higher up because I have a feeling once Cryptopia gets thier LTC market opened back up the LTC/Zeit pairing is gonna get busted up in a good way. Just look at SouthXchange. There have been buys at the 81 Litoshi wall there, and Cryptopia has a much higher volume than they do.

Has the Twitter feed been updated? Cryptopia needs to get their act together and fix their LTC and Doge markets. They are losing money. I wonder how big the rush to buy some Zeit will be once they get those markets fixed? I would like to have seen the SouthXchange and Trade Satoshi markets pick up the slack, but I guess more people trust Cryptopia.
Time for some humor.... Or maybe Zeitcoin's official theme song/video.

What the heck is a Lindacoin? Ah! Masternodes and 99% interest rate. Yeah, that won't last long. Sounds like a pump and dump waiting to happen. Well, here's to hoping that what we are seeing is not a pump to be soon followed by a dump. We have weathered several of those in the past. Now is the time to get in while Zeit is still relatively cheap. If the uptrend continues, those days will soon be over.
