A day that will live in infamy! 

Bittrex seems to be hating UNO. For all of the reasons aforementioned. Who knows the real reason. We may never know. The biggest thing now is moving ahead. Your analysis seems spot on.

Hopefully alt.market will remedy this for all POW blockchains. Time will tell.

0.025 btc/day is absolutely OUTRAGEOUS! I hope Bittrex crash and burns.

Now that there is no electrum wallet, what are all you doing now in terms of a wallet? Is everyone using the core client to access their UNO?

I get your point about uno having a theoretical value of 84x bitcoin. However, I feel that altcoins have a very hard time surpassing 1x bitcoin (besides things like 42 or 23skidoo). I'm guessing that at some point the general (crypto) population will get over this, but it might take a bit of time.

I think whoever made the units of uno metric and representative of kilograms was very creative and innovative. I believe it's another reason uno is viewed as a commodity and storage of long-term wealth.

Isn't 1 uno actually equal to 1 kg of uno? So 0.001 would be a gram and so on.

Since I use the electrum uno wallet, my uno are shown in units of "grams," not kilograms. Since 5 decimal places are represented, the quantity of 0.00001 uno is actually 10 micrograms of uno or 10,000 nanograms. So 6.08523495 uno is really six thousand eighty-five grams and two hundred thirty-four thousand nine hundred fifty micrograms of uno.

If this wallet shows 1000000.00000 uno, you are the proud owner of one million grams, one thousand kilograms, or 1 metric ton (tonne) of uno!

A question to all uno owners out there that mainly "hold" and not buy & sell (pump and dump?)....

Do you perceive uno to be more of a commodity, that it, a storage of wealth, as opposed to a currency? I'm asking because I was initially attracted to it because of its rarity (low supply) and community (all of you) and now view it as a very secure and stable long term investment. I see other altcoins out there with quantities in the hundreds of millions up to billions (like ripple) and think of them more as "cash" that are more unstable.

Now this is all an illusion, right? We can slice up all crypto down to the 8th decimal place (satoshi). For comparison and without loss of generality, let's look at the the supplies of uno and ripple on the satoshi level. They look like 3,862,169,393,300,000,000 vs. 19,773,000,000,000. These supply numbers don't seem THAT much different. The first is 3.8 quintillion and the second is 19.8 trillion. Once you go "rillion" is just huge. Now let's go back to the actual supply levels. The difference between 38,621,693,933 vs. 197,730 seems astronomically significant! Now look at "tons" (is this metric?) of uno vs. ripple: 197.7 vs. 38,621,693,933. Oh boy!!

How do you feel these comparisons are for the perception of uno? I see amazing potential for it and significant growth ahead as a storage of wealth.

On another note, I have been finding myself educating many people I work with and interact with every day about cryptocurrencies and their potential. But the majority still does not understand crypto and/or is afraid of something they can't hold or touch. I think we sometimes forget this since many of us check this forum, uno prices, or their favorite X-change daily. When adoption of altcoins becomes more mainstream, the growth will skyrocket like nothing we've ever seen before. The 2-3 year changes will seem like "blimps" on a screen. I foresee $100 billion market going to $1 trillion soon and then to the tens of trillions over time. When this happens, we will have our own 'personal' storage of wealth nicely tucked away.

Can anyone tell me what's going on with Block #954435.  

I'm freakin' out a bit what happened to about 500 Uno!

Yes, thank you. South Korea. My mistake.

Do you think the rise of bitcoin is due to economic instability or more because of the adoption of it by major markets (Japan, South Korea)? I feel it's more caused by the latter than the former but I see how perception affects reality in this case. Japan is a HUGE factor since most innovation starts there instead of the other way around. Also, South Koreans are paying ridiculous premiums (upwards of 10-20%) just to purchase bitcoin due to their super strict regulatory processes.

As for the whale, how do we know it's any of those things? Could it be an exchange or company doing the buying? Also, when did the purchasing occur? Do we know what wallet(s) it is?

I was wondering how much bitcoin you all here invest into Unobtanium.

I invested $5,000 into Uno this summer but am second guessing myself a bit. Bitcoin has doubled since this summer (~$600 to ~$1200) but Uno has seemed to halve in price. So my initial investment is about the same, or maybe I'm down a little bit. If I had just kept it as bitcoin, I'd be up to $10,000. Since I'm a value investor with my stocks and mutual funds, I'm in Uno for the long haul.

I am very pro Uno; that's why I sunk so much into it. I'm wondering if this a common theme for Uno over 4 years, for it to adjust with bitcoin so that the $$$ value of overall investments is constant? That is, when the price of bitcoin goes up, Uno goes down.

Compared to bitcoin, what are you guys seeing for the future of Uno?

Ditto.

Please expound?


On another note, what exchanges are you guys using? I exclusively use Bleutrade and Bittrex with Bittrex having the volume of course.

Is Cryptopia popular here? Never registered there. Also, I tried using Kraken but never did any trading after getting that phishing email.

Is this wallet still available?

I'm thinking of doing some kind of study between Uno and BTC. An interesting question would be how depended Uno is relative to the overall standard. Obviously, ALL altcoins are related in some way, shape or form to BTC now, but over time this relationship doesn't have to remain fixed. It would be nice to do some analysis using a correlation coefficient (possible Pearson's but not sure if this is adequate) to determine if these two are still in lock-step with each other or if over time they are becoming out of phase (tending closer towards 0). A direct OR inverse relationship would mean highly correlated over time.

Ideally, those invested or just curious in Uno would like to see a divergence from BTC. Why? Because it would make Uno have it's own market identity which over the long haul I think is feasible.

I was luckily not affected by Bitfinex  . What happened there is a travesty, I mean the way it was handled. Just horrible.

I just have used Bleu and Bittrex to trade UNO. In the past I know there was a network on trading on-line here, but it seems like that 100-page topic is defunct now. Is there any platform in place where UNO trading is done now? I would be interested. Also, why aren't escrow services in place as a fixture? It would be so simple to set up. I tried a few times with BTC, but I just said to hell with it, way too cumbersome.

Oh, I realize that this currency is different from the others. I love that it's more of a storage unit than liquid, even though it could be thought of as both. Also, by design it's more immune to inflation than anything else I've seen out there.

However, I've been reading about it's history and was curious what the community perceives the next steps of UNO. This has to be close to the floor of it (0.002). I know in late '14 the talk was about it pushing through 0.01 and hopefully to 0.012 (FK?) and beyond. Will it ever rebound to this? Is it stagnant because of perception of crypto as a whole or because it's not the new and shiny coin anymore? Either way I see UNO as still very viable and will continue to invest in it.

New to the forums. Been interested in this crypto for quite some time now, took the plunge finally and bought some recently.

I've read almost half the posts/pages so far to educate myself on UNO. I'm attracted to the rarity of this currency and can see it rebounding. Do you think there's an inverse relationship between UNO and BTC? We've seen BTC crushing it the past 12 months (almost x3?) and UNO has been depressed. But why has it fallen to almost $1? Thoughts?
