I haven't used them a huge amount, I only signed up for an account as a specific coin was only traded with them at the time. It was reasonable for that coin but I'm not sure on others.

Same thing has happened to both myself and my friend

People try to apply blockchain to everything without any meaningful reason to do so, aside from marketing gimmick and a little press for themselves.

"But Bartlett argues that the current system for issuing municipal bonds has become byzantine and dependent on an array of middlemen who add costs and slow things down. It’s so expensive to issue a bond, in fact, that it’s essentially useless as a tool for funding a single small municipal project. Bartlett says a blockchain can eliminate much of that overhead and allow organizations to be more “targeted” in their fund-raising—for instance, by issuing bonds to finance a single community theater, a housing project, or the purchase of an ambulance."

The reason why municipal bonds are expensive to issue is because of strict oversight and regulation. Whether the city raises money via bonds - or paper napkin contracts - the process/regulations/oversight is essentially the same. It's not like ICO is some magic answer to cost savings. Printing the actual bond paper is just as cheap as ICO. That's not where the cost is.

Also, a city that needs to issue ICOs for "a single community theater, a housing project, or the purchase of an ambulance" is a city that doesn't know how to manage their tax revenue and budget in the first place.

First time ever that I’m kinda enjoying the dip. Have most of roll in Tether (yes, tether is dangerous)

Made a little bit of BTC shorting it.


Now my question is:
1. When to go shopping?

2. What to buy?

3. Continue to stay on the sidelines?

Lots of simultaneous good news happening. South Korea allowing Crypto and ICOs again, lots of positivity from the G20 conference, Bittrex announced FIAT pairing for more of its alts, National Grid said mining wasn't a threat, etc etc... Could we finally be out of the woods or is this just another bulltrap?

This is interesting. Kevin O'Leary says a major hotel is launching a security token, $400m, and it is SEC approved (perhaps they're using reg D?).

Word salad

ICX having a good day. Got listed on Bithumb.

Hurray! Now my ICX is up to 1/3 of its original value!

A quick shill before unity has announced the partnership:

I am about %10 ETH , %20 bitcoin, and %70 diet bitcoin.
Diet Bitcoin is going to be huge.
First round 300,000 coins at $2
Second round 300,000 coins at $100
Third round 400,000 coins at $1,000

Awesome discount for round 1

Sounds like a scam to me.

(edit: Using the word "scam" a bit liberally here -- what I'm trying to say is that when something sounds too good to be true, it probably is, especially in crypto. No idea what Diet Bitcoin is aside from sounding dumb as ****, that kind of discount should ring some alarm bells imo. Then again, if you can find someone dumb enough to buy your coins for 50x or 500x the initial price... never say never I guess.)

Diet Bitcoin is a new crypto launched by Pablo Escobar's brother.

FFS, what happened to 2+2? I used to be here all the time for many many years. Things started getting a bit wierd with random newbs posting **** all the time and i ditched. I check back every few months and literally after reading just a few posts I see ****s gotten worse each time. Go figure the alt coin thread is always above the rest on the list!

Solid project, amazing team with a track record of delivering the goods.
20x eoy easy.

Every few months some pretentious **** writes a post just like this one.

diet bitcoin, that's awesome. you aren't actually buying that though right?

Escobar claims to have met Satoshi and that the original Bitcoin was created by the CIA . Lol

Binance as a fiat gateway is a game changer.

Thank you for this.

I'm the proud owner of some WAN.

I want some obv, but a lot of coins seem to crash when they hit the market. When would you wise folk try to get in? I'm attempting patience for once!

Wanchain marketcap isn't out on CMC yet but if the price settles at ~4.20USD or so, it will be roughly 900M USD. That means WAN is already in top 25 coins mcap-wise.

The current price is 12x ICO price in USD, and 6x ICO price in BTC. It's really tough to gauge what those numbers mean in this case specifically, because the ICO was in October (most coins that come out this month had their ICO in Jan or Feb). BTC hadn't even done most of its bullrun when they raised the funds.

The way I see it, no ****ing way I'm touching anything at 12x ICO price in a bear market. In mid-December that would've almost certainly been a good buy at only 6x ICO price in btc. I don't know if a single ICO has even returned a profit this or last month, and I'm pretty sure none of them have returned anywhere near enough to make up for that kind of price increase.

I'd wait before FOMOing any for sure. This isn't really a comment on WAN itself, but rather the conditions -- every single WAN holder until yesterday had had their funds locked for 5+ months. Imagine the emotional roller coaster that they've been through and how much the value of their investment has fluctuated... there must be a TON of people who are looking to get rid of their tokens which creates selling pressure. Plus we're in a bear market and I at least am expecting the overall market to go down rather than up in the near future. I just don't see why there'd be any rush to buy WAN and I'd be pretty shocked if the opportunity to buy it for much cheaper in the future wouldn't present itself at some point.

Having that said, there will almost certainly be a bunch of FOMO fish trying to snap buy it instantly when they hear that it's out, which could cause some short-term spikes in the price. It's also a very legit project obviously.
