I have to say ETH is one of the currencies I've had the most success with flipping back and forth for some nice chunks of return of interest. It's not too hard once you learn to read the charts.

Look at all the desperate people who shorted eth try and get you to sell. Hahaha.
How do you short ETH or any other cryptocurrency?

Even without short selling, it's possible. You close your position waiting to buy back in. It's safer than a true market short, but you're still risking losing future gains if you don't buy back in soon enough.

Still waiting for company name and a good response to the 'decantral vs distributed'-question, thanks.


Please take a look at:
https://www.ethereum.org/foundation
There you can find out about the company behind Ethereum, it's a swiss non-profit organisation.

And it's decentralised just like almost any other cryptocurrency out there.

Hope that answers your questions.

Regards, djoser.

I see, my question 'decentral vs distributed' was sidestepped/ignored.
All i needed to know.

May I ask you two questions?

What is your intent?

why ETH price is rising with btc?

Because the pumpers want you to buy in so they can dump on you and take your btc.

ETH/BTC made another new high. This is crazy.

The all time high for the ETH/BTC is about 0.035. The price is just 0.026 now. The Etheruem has to work hard.

Bitcoin’s surge helped another cryptocurrency that already was having a good 2016: ether, the currency underlying a burgeoning bitcoin-like network called Ethereum. Ethereum takes bitcoin’s model and changes the focus from currency transactions to Web-hosting applications.

what is the latest ether mist version and where can one download it ? i have 0.5.2
but its so slow to sync
used to be faster
Geth 1.4.6 "EDGE" aims to solve the synchronization issues resulting from this newly found heterogeneity: it introduces a lot more download concurrency to avoid bottlenecks caused by badly connected remote machines, and also introduces adaptive quality-of-service tuning to make peer selection less aggressive for users with more restricted connectivity.

The result is a newly polished sync mechanism that can churn out a 7-8MB/s download speed in the current Ethereum main network (if your connectivity allows it), but also provide a solid and stable stream for all users, verified for as low as EDGE connections (440ms latency, 200 kbps upstream, 220kbps downstream).

https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/releases/tag/v1.4.6

https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/4mtnz3/geth_146_edge_making_sync_great_again/


I am using 0.7.4 (Beta 18), the mist wallet. It takes a long time to update and it tells me there is a more up to date geth.
I understand geth is in the download and part of the mist wallet.
I don't understand how to update geth separately and if I should, maybe just wait till the next wallet release, it would then include it I expect.
Are there instructions on how to just update the geth part without messing anything up?
 
Any advise please.
i can tell you what i just did
no quarentie it works for you too
i downloaded the geth "edge" from the link he/she gave us then started it ( my antivir blocked it so i had to alowe it) then i had it run
and started mist like always
and it was real fast this time
when it opened .... all my ether are still there
hope that helps

oh and make sure you have a keystore backup
copie that file just to be sure you can restore if anything happens


Thanks for help, I'll have a look when I get some time.

Your pathetic attempts to fud are pathetic.




Oh wow, that's so retarded it didn't register for a good 6 hours. I'm disappointed, go clean your room.
