I wonder how many ****coins we're going to have with a $100M+ market cap before people start realizing not every coin can trade at a 100x+ multiple to the work/investment put into it

Anyone tried to claim/trade lite coin cash?

You get 10 LCC for each LTC you held at the fork and it's actually worth a bit of money right now.

Yeah, it's incredible how long odds most of them have for gaining any sort of real use, justifying a decent price. But the market can stay irrational for pretty long, I guess.

How does the transaction work, do you need to surrender your LTC to get LTCH?

Also, where did you get a quote on LTCH? Thanks

Obv don't have to give up ltc to get lcc. I have ltc on a ledger I'm sure you can get lcc off of it somehow.

Traded on some exchanges, seems like as of right now it's at $2.80 each.

So, if say, someone had 100 LTC pre split they now have 1000 LCC and 100 LTC post split and the 1000 LCC is worth 2.8k, free money.

But the only markets for it are yobit? Cryptobridge? and trade satoshi? what ever those places are.

Thanks. My LTC is on a wallet so I will synch up with the blockchain and see what I get.

Is anyone interested in cheap NEM given the price dump due to the exchange hacking?

Anybody have experience using Huobi, Kucoin, or Gate.io? I want to get some DBC and those are the only exchanges it's listed on.

I've heard Huobi isn't ideal if you're from the US because you can't verify your account, and I've heard bad things about Kucoin. Haven't seen much about gate.io

Kucoin is fine as long as you don't withdraw eth

Never had any issues with Kucoin or Huobi. Never tried gate.io

Well done, you know what opensource means.

I do, but apparently most people investing in altcoins don't. It sounds like you have a point, why don't you expand on it?

You just make posting here a real pain. My posts was suppose to be informational about some new developments and yet somehow you turn it into some kind of attack. I just find it all rather tiring.

It just gives the block-lattice approach more validation which is a good thing from my POV as it is the technology I am interested in and if that comes in the form of a future project then I'll happily jump ship. From the posts by the guy behind the project on reddit it doesn't look though like it will be a director competitor. The dumping was also more likely cause by another video from the BG owner appearing online.

It does highlight that point pretty well, that you need more than just an idea and open source code to have a successful network. It's a concept that is important for the fundamental value of every coin, and a problem for almost all of them. I wasn't actually trying to come down on Nano specifically this time, and it might also not be the reason the price went down. Eventually fundamental factors will have a large impact on a coins price. Some will be able to deal with these issues, most won't. Either way, it's good to be aware of what to look out for in a project you're invested in.

And you are right that someone endorsing the overall concept should be positive, unless it's a serious rival. The price action can seem quite irrational, with the limited information every trader has. Sometimes people dump into good news, simply because there is something propping the price up, reducing slippage.

Saw this on Reddit. So redic how overpriced lisk is or underpriced ark is:



From my basic resesrch in the next 5 months the teams will have (or already have now) the following:

Ark 1. Decentralised network 2. Dynamic fees 3. Sdk which currently supports 14+ programming languages 4. Side chains capable of connecting to everyone else 5. Push button blockchains. Pressing a button to create your own blockchain to make it super easy for user adoption. 6. ArkVM integrated as on option on each side chain (ported from Ethereum) 7. ACES. Connecting ark to other coins. BTC/ETH/LTC done already 8. ACES marketplace (I could be wrong on this?) 9. Ledger support already

Lisk 1. Centralised network. With it not changing for at least a year+. Go on their subreddit to see the problems with "the elite". Rumours of them owning even more than 54% of network. 2. Maybe dynamic fees. It's on their roadmap but they still haven't come up with a proposal. They just said "after core" 3. Maybe an SDK written in one language. It's really unknown how long this will take. Some people say even as late as Q4. 4. Maybe sidechains depending on SDk. 5. Maybe ledger support.

Lisk has a bigger team and higher funding but they appear to be getting massively outpaced by ark within the same timeframe.

Please add if I missed something obvious

The name Lisk sucks. That's all the fundamentals I need to know. I mean who wants to own something called Lisk? It sounds like a disabling condition or something.

I actually thought it was already underpriced, so still feel OK with it being a big part of my YOLO portfolio, but it may take a while to get this stink off (and the odds of it being propped up by a scam are now non-zero, though still near zero imo)
Well, may not have caught the bottom but buying that dip worked out nicely
