Topic: [ANN][EST 2014] Rimbit - We removed mining so its just the community and coin - page 8. (Read 26080 times)

Cool, I would be very interested to be educated on how to make money with BTC. If you are talking about speculation, it's not exclusive to Bitcoin. In fact, a lot of altcoins have more potential that Bitcoin, including Rimbit. If you bought Ethereum for a fraction of a dollar, you now know what I mean. Rimbit is another coin that has that potential, giving that it is still cheap and it has eliminated the flaws that we can find in other coins, including Bitcoin.

I think you are indeed a newbie in the crypto currency to say that,every body here are making money on bitcoin if no one is making money then this forum is not existing anymore and so are the traders I think you do nt what bitcoin is and how it works all you know is just how to buy a premine coin..

Perhaps they dont keep up with the news about Bitcoins problems and mining in general?
If they did, they just might cross over to the logical side.... and leave the dark side to suffer its own demise

That's a good point! With Rimbit, I've made about 40% in plus value of my investment since I bought my first coins. I've also lost money with Bitcoin.

I agree that in nearly all cases, premine is a bad idea...
But thats only considering that the crypto community has a trust issue, can be very immature and like many companies built around Bitcoin, have failed time and time again

Rimbit is solid and we have 2 years of proof that a premine can work and as time moves on, we will only get stronger as other coins die off, like Bitcoin... and I am sorry to say that, as I was a miner at one stage, mining Bitcoin until the day that I couldnt afford to buy anymore ASIC miners...

Etherium is a great concept, but ask a blue collar worker anywhere in the world if he wants to do a contract for whatever... the answer will be.. "What".... "I just want to send some cash to someone else"

Why do you think Rimbit not providing a solution? and why do you think all pre-mined coins are a scam?

I'm new here and own Bitcoin, Ether and Rimbit... so I've made money on Ether and Rimbit, nothing on Bitcoin, I bought Ether in Jan at a Dollar plus and I make 5% on the coin with Rimbit... so tell me why Bitcoin is so great?

There is no innovation or idea behind this currency. They just selling their Pre-Mine Coins.

To this, you can add that the Rimbit community proved to be a warm welcoming one with members from different spheres of interest. That adds to its intrinsect value as a cryptocoin.

  As premined coins hit the marketplace, it's the market that determines the price, not the original miner.  So yes, the original miner could try to sell coins for more than the market price, but depending on his asking price, he might not be very successful.

I agree with you that the mining of PoW coins becomes more centralized with time ... but this also means that by default, the processing of transactions also becomes more centralized.  That's the problem you've been seeing with Bitcoin for the past months - transactions are now taking hours to process, unless you're willing to pay a higher fee.

I don't think anyone is saying BTC is all bad, but there are a few significant well-known issues that need to be addressed or the coin will eventually fail.

  For a moment there, I thought there was an intelligent comment coming.  Then I started reading.

The PoW process is what will sink Bitcoin. 

Mining is consuming enormous amounts of power, it is controlled by just a few companies who can afford to spend tens of millions in mining equipment, and is the reason why BTC transactions are taking hours to process.

You think that outsiders can get BTC from somewhere other than a CURRENT HOLDER?  Name one.
YOU can't mine Bitcoin.  If you could, you wouldn't have enough electricity left over to post your messages!

Oh, unless I suppose you're bigger than Denmark ... http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/225660-bitcoin-could-soon-use-more-power-than-denmark-but-help-is-on-the-way

BTC is a pretty good coin which is why it has seen success.  But, there are flaws in it's design that some of the biggest BTC holders have known about for years.  It can be fixed, but they don't want to because it would require a massive amount of work and the public acknowledgement of the problem would drive BTC prices into the ground.

Either you don't know, or don't want to know, that some of the biggest holders of BTC (the ones who are controlling it's future) have huge stockpiles of BTC that they can cash out in 2017.  How many problems do you really think they want to acknowledge before they have their billions in cash?

 

I totally agree with you with premine of all the coins there is one group that can control it all there could be a better solution to these problems except 100% premine equal distribution is the best solution and there are coins and new coins that has this algorithm

I agree there are problems with PoW mining and how it becomes more centralized as it gets more expensive to mine. But what RimBit is proposing is not a solution lol.

100% Premine = 100% Scam

Really? An outsider can mine Bitcoin?  Perhaps if they are a billionaire then they can afford the electricity and the computing power needed.  But of the worlds population maybe a very small fraction of 1% could afford that.

The fact that Bitcoin has any value is largely because of the PoW mining process.

Do you know why POW mining is fair? Because it allows outsiders to get coins WITHOUT BUYING THEM FROM A CURRENT HOLDER.
Premine 100% ? What a fucking joke. Do you seriously think there is any future to this setup.

And BTW, why the name? Do you know what a RIMJOB is??

8. BTC will soon be using as much electricity as Denmark! Rimbit can run happily on old PCs / Pis etc http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/225660-bitcoin-could-soon-use-more-power-than-denmark-but-help-is-on-the-way

Ok, all you mining diehards..here's 7 reasons why Rimbit makes more sense as a universal currency than BTC

1) Your wallet on your own PC is your own bank. No need to store your RBT on Mt Gox and risk having them stolen.

2) All confirmations are down by the user community wallets, not centralized and limited to only big mining farms.

3) When you help confirm the transactions in #2 above, your wallet earns (mints) free RBT at a rate of 5% per annum. With BTC, only the mining firms earn free BTC.

4) RBT is becoming more and more decentralized as more people buy RBT and get their wallets. BTC however is rapidly becoming more centralized as the cost of setting up huge mining farms is in the millions of $

5) RBT transaction confirmations are getting faster and faster as more wallets come online. BTC confirmations are slowing noticeably recently as the number of nodes is rapidly decreasing.

6) The difficulty of the BTC algorithm is increasing so quickly, that in less than 5 years, it is likely no computer will be able to solve them and BTC dies. RBT is just purchased from IndiGoGo crowd funding site.

7) BTC wallet and software upgrades have no funding source, so there is no way to fix problems or enhance the wallet. RBT gets funding directly from sales on IndieGoGO in #6 above and uses the funds for wallet upgrades, enhancements and developments such as the RimbitPi $200 nifty hardware wallet.

So here's a question, and I'll use the example in an earlier post of having $400 to invest.

Looking solely at return on investment, in order to double my money would it make more sense to:


a)  invest $400 in Bitcoin and wait for Bitcoin to increase in value by another $400,

or

b) invest $400 in Rimbit and wait for Rimbit to increase in value by ONE cent?


In both (a) and (b), the end result would be a gain of $400, but I'm wondering which would be the better bet.

Ouch - that doesn't sound like fun!  And of course the longer this goes on, the more challenging it's going to become.

Yes it can...
But it will require everyone exchange their Bitcoin for the new Bitcoin.. much like we did with Rimbit when we encountered that issue
