Alternative Cryptocurrencies (General Discussion & Trading)

Stuck record time...
Use coinmarketcap.com, search for what you want, choose an exchange with volume, start trading.
Or see the video in my sig 'where do I buy it'.

Thanks for the tip
 
Etn being listed on a new exchange in 3 weeks time. Price allready going up!

Yeah, i'm smiling - bought a bag full when they were cheaper - as soon as the mobile app mining actually starts, and the iOS app is released, I would expect another good leg up :)

Apparently they are also working on a deal that is bigger than even the XIUS deal... Let's wait and see.
 
As long as it takes for altcointrader to manually initiate the process... so anything from 5 minutes to 5 business days
Thanks, never knew it was a manual process which is kind of ***. Like my wife, it eventually came.
 
On the topic of ACT, how long do they usually take to verify FICA docs?

Mine has been uploaded nine days ago yet I still have not seen any activity and it still warns me to upload it when I log in and navigate to my profile

Thanks dude, sorry that I keep asking the same questions. I have the dumb.


On a quick overview of the candle charts it looks like the overwhelming majority of alt coins serve no real tech purpose and is basically just pump & dump schemes.

The first time I did it, within a day iirc. One would imagine you stay verified for more than a month, but nope. On my second withdrawal attempt they can't process it because I'm not FICA'd (and I can't even upload docs because the system won't let me). 4 days and counting...
 
Anyone here on that Pump n' Dump telegram group? I just watch it and prefer not to participate in that. Did anyone find it fishy that the pump and dump was set to be 10PM, shortly after the pump message John Mcafee tweeted a coin of the day and it happen to be the same coin as the pump and dump? The coin was GVT, the pump was at 22:00, tweet posted at 22:01 :confused:

I don’t see the tweet?
 
Always fake accounts for him. Check the blue verified tick for verified accounts

There's a few kinds of projects that fall into the 'no utility' class...

1.) The 'why the hell not' token: Anyone can create an ERC20 token (tokens on the Etthereum blockchain which is what the majority of these projects use) and a lot of people do. They serve no utility, the creator was just playing around experimenting with the technology. A lot of these creators attempt to push their creation forward...

2.) Does nothing but we love it: Sometimes a community forms around these creations and they support the project even though it doesn't really do anything different to the neighboring ERC20 project.

3.) Much hype over nothing: Fancy websites and mega-sized Telegram channels - the token does nothing special, but the sheer marketing and numbers carry it forward.

4.) The scam: Token is created for the sole purpose of being dumped by the creator when the price is high enough.

Do yourself a favor and take a quick look at this link and see how many projects there are, even just on that first page: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=240.0

There's just so much nonsense out there.

And yet...I'm not always opposed to some of the categories above - there are some genuinely nice communities formed around those projects. My fondness for some of these projects stems not from a belief in their utility, but from the opportunity they provide to witness a global collaboration the likes of which I've never really seen before. People from around the world working together to build something and yes - I realize it's often a castle in the sky, but if the entire crypto space crumbles away tomorrow, I'd like to think it's planted the seed to something even more valuable.

But yeah...for any long term investment I will almost always pick a project with utility.
It can sometimes be a tricky task trying to find them :).

Did anyone else take part in the Monyx (MYX) Pre ICO sale in Dec? Just a reminder that the exchange and other features go live today! If you took part, you will remeber that the Pre Sale and all rounds of the sale sold out in a record time of around 5hrs. What stage did you manage to buy in at? I managed to get in Round 1 :)
 
Lucky pick! Most of my alts are hibernating at the moment...
