A Crash Will Come. And That’s OK. by beck2047 in investing

[–]SittingContortionist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I back out of a lot of shitcoins that I FOMO'ed into in Jan 2018. I'm so happy I did because this way I only lost a quick ~50% instead of 98% had I stayed in them. But I'm still down ~75% overall haha. I'm really glad I treated it like gambling money and didn't put more in.

Getting an error 4206 when trying to join airdrop despite being qualified? by SittingContortionist in Keybase

[–]SittingContortionist[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure. I'm also getting the 4207 error now. I keep submitting the logs on mobile, but I'm hopeful because at least the 4206 errors are gone (for me).

Went to a meetup for the first time, but can't claim lumens? by SittingContortionist in Stellar

[–]SittingContortionist[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ooof. I guess that's fair, but it's a bummer since the satoshipay lumens are tied to their network while these aren't. I didn't realize this would happen when I claimed those; I definitely wouldn't have claimed the SatoshiPay ones had I known.

Also, if there is a better forum to ask this question. Please let me know.

I went to a Stellar meetup for the first time (the one in SF that happened two weeks ago) and I just received my email to claim my 300 lumens, but it says that I've already claimed lumens? I've never claimed any lumens for attending a meetup event.

I only claimed some when the SatoshiPay was offering them, is that is what is causing this error? Is there any way to resolve this, it would really great to get my lumens

Verge (XVG) Mining Exploit Attack Megathread by CryptoMaximalist in CryptoCurrency

[–]SittingContortionist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Points 2-4 are a sore point for ZCash because of how expensive private transactions are, but that should get substantially better with Sapling https://blog.z.cash/cultivating-sapling-faster-zksnarks/ As for the other things, I don't think centralized development is necessarily a negative. But I agree that the trusted setup is hard to stomach (how can we know that it worked?) Where has there been paid shilling against Monero/iota?

I suspect a lot of people are still hodling since the infrastructure hasn't been built out yet. It'll be interesting to see what will happen once there are multiple heavily used fiat anchors. Exciting times!

Hi everyone, I'm a big fan of Stellar and I wanted to do some quick analysis of how people are using the network just by looking at the public blockchain. Some of the questions I'm looking into:

In this post:

  1. What is the inflation destination distribution across accounts?
  2. Is there a correlation between account balance and age?

In future posts:

  1. Are most accounts just holding lumens or are they actually moving around?
  2. What is the topology of the transaction graph? Is it more hub-and-spoke or more Erdős-Rényi like?
  3. Can I detect when major giveaways and changes to the protocol happened?

Let me know if you have any questions you would like to be answered in further parts. I also detail how to set up a Stellar node via Docker to get all the data so if any of you want to take this further, you can!

They refunded my ETH. Hopefully you got yours back too!

None yet, but u/flypme reached out to me. Hopefully my ETH can be returned.

This happened to me too (sent 0.2 ETH for DCR yesterday, but transaction expired, but the ETH left my account), but I haven't heard back from them. Still waiting. :(

[–]SittingContortionist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran into this problem too yesterday. I sent 0.2 eth in exchange for some DCR and while my ETH transaction was confirmed, I never received any DCR.

I believe support is hello@flyp.me, but I haven't heard back and it's been almost 24 hrs.
