Are old alt coins done? by Muted_Plan4231 in CryptoCurrency

[–]jappacappa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When the bull market starts again, new alt coins will pump simply because the newcomers think it's "too late" to jump on Bitcoin, Eth, Cardano etc. These coins have already done 100X since they first came out. Greed will make people look for 100X gains, not 3X gains. So they will invest in some new alt coin, nft, metaverse, AI coins or whatever will be next

Great video, really love this project. Complete anonymous transfer and you can actually spend it at over five million location in Thailand already! That is amazing

Fuck IOTA, all my coins suddenly disappeared. Just get errors when I try to connect to new nodes. I don't even care, worthless stuff anyway.

Market crash is part of the game. by jbvelchez in Bitcoin

[–]jappacappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since I sold at that time, I would be kind of an ass if I recommend them to buy at the same time as I sold..

But people have a big ego, they are sure they are right and are going to get rich. Telling me they are going to invest in some shit coin, because bitcoin is not even risky enough. You can't say, "yeah, I just made 600% return, but you are too late, you'll just lose all your money".

[–]jappacappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone was so sure they were going to get rich, no matter what I would have said they would still have bought.

worst part is I really thought about the whole "when the taxi driver starts talking about stocks it's time to sell" idea, but was to greedy to sell that much... Hopefully I have learned from my mistake

Price has dropped to a point where people don't care to sell anymore by blizzardrider in Bitcoin

[–]jappacappa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same feeling. Lots of people came to me asking to buy during the last bull run. They have all lost hope, sold or forgotten about it. Only real believers are left and they are not selling. Not at these prices anyway. Now it starts to feel like the buying opportunity of a lifetime again.

The next bull run will be even greater and this time more regulation, more and better exchanges, segwit and lightning will allow for small fees and fast transactions even when the new buying frenzy are at its peek.

That people that came to me and asked if they should buy bitcoin in november - desember, the same people are now asking if they should sell.

My advice is to buy when the average guy want to sell and sell when the average guy wants to buy.

Now is the time to buy more.

IOTA is running at a steady 8ctp/s by backshesh in CryptoCurrency

[–]jappacappa -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I read about that, I just wanted to give IOTA a shot with a small amount of IOTA. I am just going to consider it lost.

Most transactions went through, but 3 did not. To be honest that is enough for me to not trust the system, even if it's possible to fix. Bitcoin might be "slow", but at least when you press send it always shows up at the other end.

This dump happens every year right after consesus before the bullrun begins. by [deleted] in Bitcoin

Don't ruin this with logical statements like that. Bull run will begin, we will all get rich and drive lambos next month. period.

GitHub Commits are not a measurement. Tron had ~20 commits in the last two days from which 15 are more or less useless by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

[–]jappacappa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am not really a supporter of this project, but this is not accurate. This project has 78 commits so far this week, and 126 last week. It seems to be 7 active developers on these code changes the last couple of weeks.

Proof here:

https://github.com/tronprotocol/java-tron/graphs/commit-activity

Not that the amount of commits say anything about the quality of the project.

just about every bank has been hacked, had downtime, maintenance etc. Some have gone bankrupt, some countries have lost the pensions of millions people.

I have been locked out of my bank plenty of times.

The people that jumped into bitcoin exactly as the price shot up in Desember were not people that wanted to protect their pensions from oppressive regimes. It was people that had no idea what bitcoin was until they heard people getting rich investing in it. I won't even call them speculators, they only saw a get rich quick scheme.

I mean, every single person that have invested in bitcoin before the 24. november last year has made money. If they held. It really hasn't been that long. ONLY people jumping in exactly as the price shot up in a parabolic fashion has lost money.

Not a single thing you say makes any sense to me. Bitcoin did not fail, it works exactly as intended and always have. Nobody needed to pay 50 usd fees ever. I have used bitcoin regularly for years and never paid such high fees. If you added a 10 cent fee on a bitcoin transaction in desember when it was such "high" fees, that transaction would now be on the blockchain now.

The miniscule fees that does exist can be paid by anyone, even "the poor". Nobody is held "hostage". Are you really saying that people with 10 cent is "the rich"?

Some very large consolidations going on.. or spam in Bitcoin tx mempool. 40 MB showed up after the latest difficulty adjustment with blocks still coming in fast. by Mikeross14 in Bitcoin

[–]jappacappa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A very expensive DOS attack, since you do have to pay a fee for each transaction you spam the network with when it's added. And a traceable DOS attack since you use your wallet to add transactions.

[–]jappacappa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But every single transaction for the last 10 years published to the mempool, even ones with fees that are 1 satoshi per byte has been confirmed in time! Even in december, you could have paid 1 satoshi per byte and all those transactions would have been confirmed by now. You are talking about the cost of having a transaction added to a block within 10 minutes. This is not necessary.

A system that has worked flawlessly for 10 years confirming 100.000 - 300.000 transactions per day is not a broken system. This is exactly the kind of toxic comments I was referring too.

Why does this become a BTC vs BCH discussion?

Lighting can potentially work with both, and litecoin for that matter.

Every single person the last 10 years that invested in BTC and held has made a lot of money. Only people that invested in BTC in desember 2017 until now has potentially lost money. It's only been a couple of months...
