Bitcoin 2018 reddit
In relevant transactions, this will appear to mint tokens out of seemingly nothing. The exploit was first observed on the 22nd of April, when octodecillion BEC Beauty Coin was created in two transactions. Many exchanges, including OKEx, Changelly, and Poloniex, initially suspended ERC20 deposits across the board while they investigate the issue and rolled back some trades involving the fraudulently-created tokens. Large exchanges, like Binance did not suspend ERC20 activity.
Recently, Binance audited ERC20 tokens listed on exchange and found out that all of them are safe and not affected by the recent vulnerability that was found in most of the ERC20 tokens. It is not easy to develop an Ethereum based token that is completely free of bugs. In a research published last year, some researchers claimed that they had discovered that 34, of the Ethereum smart contracts were vulnerable to bugs.
While the hacker behind the exploit has been unsuccessful in this specific case, the presence of this exploit in the market is a clear sign that the extremely broad spectrum of ERC20 tokens, must be more rigorous with the manner in which smart contract functionality is implemented. With billions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency going through different exchanges every day, exchanges are natural targets for hackers and criminals.
Anyone that has ever coded knows that software is never bug free, but blockchain bugs could be a very expensive proposition. Reddit , which hosts communities for every single cryptocurrency in the world, is hoping to bring back crypto payments to the platform, this time with Ethereum and Litecoin in addition to Bitcoin, according to CTO KeyserSosa. The company is actively working with Coinbase to properly integrate Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin.
The site began accepting Bitcoin as a payment for the perk since When the news about the ban reached the first page of Bitcoin Subreddit, a Reddit administrator responded to the decision to eliminate the currency, stating that they had problems with the Coinbase payment platform, which led to the complete disablement of the currency.
Payment requests would end up getting stuck in the network which developed into pick-and-choose transactions for miners and higher fees which meant for some smaller transactions the cost was not worth the transaction. Reddit is the largest web community in which cryptocurrency enthusiasts meet and discuss technology. Reddit was one of the earliest gathering spots for Bitcoin enthusiasts, dating back to when a Bitcoin traded for just a few pennies.
The Bitcoin subreddit community has , subscribers, and the subreddit of cryptocurrencies has more than , subscribers. The banning seemed odd, given the fact that Reddit is a platform for cryptocurrency enthusiasts, and given its nature as an anonymous open-discourse forum. Coinbase had made changes to Coinbase Commerce which allowed merchants to accept Bitcoin Payment, a the change required merchants to make a significant upgrade, and Reddit chose not to make the upgrade at the time, disabling Bitcoin as a payment method.

Still very good, and still requires a significant market cap, because there's so much more units than for instance Bitcoin's 21 million. And I quote you:.
So, with all respect; whether you think Bitcoin will explode into the hundreds of thousands of dollars per Bitcoin within the next five years, or whether IOTA will take over in terms of price, your statement is self-contradictory, cause if you think Bitcoin will be that big in five years, you can't have much faith in IOTA. An advantage of treating IOTA units as whole numbers is to avoid decimal rounding issues, which can lead to floating-point errors in improperly designed software.
I agree with mygestic and just in my opinion all the blockchainbased coins bcb-coins are barrel burst because of the limited transactions per second and the fees and centraliezed mining valuation which is not democratic at all. It might be a different coin and way better than Bitcoin, which I think it is, but no matter what, it still follows the rule of supply and demand according to the units it's traded in.
It all depends on the demand stemming from real life use cases, and the "success" of the Tangle tech itself. It might go really high, or it might just crash as something better sees the light. First of all somebody founders? Anytime there begins new a wave some donk throws what he has.
You forgot about inflation rate for other projects e. Other coins inflating won't necessarily affect the price of IOTA. It still has to follow the rules of the market. I don't mind them selling at a pace where it doesn't crash the market totally. They seem to be somewhat intelligent in their approach. They need money for further development of the concept, so it would be natural to get them from the market cap slowly as money flow in, while also distributing more coins to the users.
If a company invests in their project, they most likely don't give the devs any cash - they just buy coins and hold long term, so the easiest and maybe only way they can get money to continue the development of their project, is by selling some of their own coins. I hardly doubt that they'd spend such long time and commit themselves so much, just to rip people off. Furthermore, Norwegians and Germans devs nationalities are almost all people of high integritty and good moral standards.
Hi mate, zero transaction fees and quick transfers - very good points. Nobody knows; I bet on the much higher price however. These are my predictions. And I quote you: Let's meet back here in January to see who's prediction was closer! Frankly, there is just no way of telling. I have absolutely no idea.
