Topic: [ANN] (QTUM) - A Scalable Smart Contract Platform w/ Proof of Stake - page 147. (Read 525459 times)

Byteball is definitely a cool project, and there's a few others that I've been personally interested in from a technology aspect. We have never been about bashing or replacing any cryptocurrency and believe there is room for more than 1 top coin. I personally believe that in the future there will be a few different cryptocurrencies that common people will use, and they will use whichever one is optimized for their use case. So, we might see Byteball being used for microtransactions and timing sensitive use cases, and then Bitcoin used as the standard for international money transfer, and then Qtum used behind the scenes of some mobile apps that use smart contracts on the blockchain without the user even needing to be aware of it.

I think you're right, Turing Completeness for the sake of Turing Completeness is nearly useless for practical smart contracts. The difference for Qtum is that this is a feature from which we build many more features. DGP for instance would not be nearly so powerful of a concept if not for allowing it to be controlled by Turing Complete AI smart contracts. And there are a few other things. We support SPV for smart contract interaction. That doesn't really mean anything by itself, but we are using this to build mobile APIs that will allow developers to easily interact with smart contracts, and suddenly this starts to mean something to consumers and businesses. Features on the blockchain tend to be very abstract and not by itself mean much. It's all about what we do to allow people to easily use and integrate with these features, and how extensible it makes the blockchain

why i have the feeling one day byteball will replace that Ethereum?

lol



this guy have a good point!

Ethereum maybe replaced by some other coins in 2-3 years.

1 BTC = 3800 Qtum for ico Price.

35 cents per Qtum in ICO

hey what was the ICO price of QTUM in BTC , ETH, USD?
QTUM= ? ETH
QTUM= ? BTC
QTUM= ? USD

cheers for help

Wow. it's very impressive . Many investors make more money from this Project.
I feel regretful not to invest money to this project as soon ICO launching. Congratulations.

This is very possible after looking over the hard effort of this team I also believe price will be around there but $10 is more realistic approach. After a month or little long it will move to this floor around $20-25 because this is big project.

price increase for quantum is possible, but if you say it will replace ETH, thats hard to believe man  . 1000X Hype! lol.. Whos selling quantum now? pity to those who will buy the hype...

Qtum will be 20-25$ per coin after mainnet release

they already come back just before testnet release.

welcome back. haha 

also it's a better version Ethereum,  

Qtum is will be the First UTXO based POS Smart Contact platform

i just hope in the future Qtum will have their own VMs,

then i can say Qtum will replace Ethereum in china in 2-3 years.

even right now, everyone in china know Qtum.

and Qtum is 4 times popular than Ethereum in China.

thanks for the weekly updates, looking forward to the testnet release!

who is this thegeneral1985 kids?

try to create FUDs here?

you need to learn man, i had saw much much worse FUD..

you are too young, you need learn from Gleb.

he will teach you something.

but it does not matter.. you just missed your chance to make 10X or 20X times profit.

you need to learn man.

welcome back Gleb !  i was wondering where you go?

also you just missed the Qtum ico, best ICO in 2017

all participater make 10-20X times profit. 

I'd argue the opposite actually, the testnet isn't even proven to be functional at all but it's already worth $450 million because of demand in the Chinese market, once they release an actual functional project the value would be much, much, higher.
And sure, the creators can dump a lot of coins except they'll make a lot more money actually putting out a real product because the Chinese market is that hungry for their own Ethereum.

Either way, all the crap posters dumping on the ICO honestly cost a lot of bitcointalk members a huge opportunity here.  If you sold your ICO Qtums the other day you would have had a 28,000% return, and even with the drop to ~$4.50 we're looking at 15,000% gains.  You can sell a tiny fraction of your holdings and have all the money you put into the ICO back and a free ride to wherever. Luckily I didn't let you guys talk me out of investing in the ICO entirely, but I probably would have invested double what I did if it weren't for all the FUD here.

Of all the ICOs this year this was probably the best investment out of any of them but you guys just want to believe your own FUD, lol.  Keep posting nonsense though, we'll see who's right once the testnet and mainnet go live.  With the huge returns from my Qtum buy it's skyrocketed up to being almost 15% of my crypto holdings even though I put maybe 2% of my holdings into the ICO (the other holdings went up as well so the ratio did not grow by 15x).  But hey, without all the FUD here the ICO might have sold out before I could get in.

LOLOL dude!!  My bad!!  I didn't know you uncovered that fraudster.  Dude, I can't believe people are so stupid they are buying this coin at $450million valuation.  Why are the advisors still with this project?  This is such a scam- changing names, trying to put people on your site that seem legit, etc...  manipulating and colluding with exchanges...

Btw what are your thoughts on any new ICOs/coin- would love to hear what projects you think are legit/not scams.

WOW! Dude doesn't recognize /S when he sees/reads it.

Dude, in case you're not versed, I'm one of the dudes who helped tear Steven/Patrick Dai a new asshole.

Recall, when the news broke that Steven and Patrick Dai were the same person, ALL those in Qtum's inner circle adamantly denied it, going as far as claiming that we're merely trolling. Then, Patrick Dai comes out and claims such was true and that everybody, including his inner circle, knew such to be a fact. Then, them same inner circle dudes back-peddled and went on record to concur the stance.

Translated: WE ALL KNOW GODDAMN WELL THAT THOSE AT QTUM WILL BE SELLING OFF THEIR TOKENS WAY BEFORE THOSE WHO PURCHASED THEM WILL. Furthermore, the exchanges trading the QTUM token are directly and indirectly related to Team Qtum, thus will manipulate the price to their benefit.

HOW MOTHERFUCKIN CLOSE AM I?

Also, let's forget about speculation and who's selling the coin...

Who in their right mind would buy into a coin worth $450 million with absolutely nothing?!?!  No wallet, no testnet, no network, nobody using the coin in the wild?!?....just a promise to build it out months in the future?!?

I'm sorry, there are much better options out there in cryptoland and coins that actually exist... people buying at a $450 million valuation will be left holding the bag.

Even the big 10 million+ icos have SOMETHING, an alpha, a demo, a testnet, wallets...something they've been working on usually for the past couple years... this coin looks like a Chinese scam where they just get the right advisors and take pictures with the right people.  It's just like those ghost cities and crappy construction.  People buying this coin will be disappointed, they won't get what they think they're paying for.

So you know for a fact no early backers, advisors or any core people associated with the project have sold Qtum?  You're absolutely sure that nobody over there looked at their coin raise $15 million and now it's suddenly $450 million...and nobody over there has sold anything- they're holding on to it all...no one cashed out even a dollar...and you're absolutely sure of this because...

I know you're trying to compete with ETH... but this is not how ETH started or succeeded.  You should be concerned and actually fearful for the long term when you haven't even built a testnet and the coin is valued at half a billion.  That would make me want to sell some if I was holding it because there will be huge volatility and a correction.  No coin has a smooth release, and we don't even have a testnet up and there's a half a billion valuation for a coin that's just on paper.

Dude, I drank the Kool-Aid (mango), thus here to assure you that Steven Dai - I mean Patrick Dai - would not do such a thing.
