Hey guys I know I already posted this but if you havn't done this yet then please take the time to submit a request to add SLR to BTC-e

I received a reply to my Email yesterday. It was not like what I have seen in the past.
It wasn't a template response and It really seemed like they were going to look into it.
It would be amazing to see SLR added to BTC-e.

So here you go: https://support.btc-e1.com/index.php?/Tickets/Submit/

It will only take 2 minutes of your time Smiley

Thank you


Edit: BTW hosting is running out for our block explorer:  https://chainz.cryptoid.info/slr/
Ill be sending 10$ again when I get home tonight.

Please note due to current US treasury OFAC regulations.

https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/sanctions/Programs/Pages/venezuela.aspx

SolarCoin is not available for granting in Venezuela.  

When sanctions are lifted SolarCoin grants may resume retroactive to Jan 1, 2010.

This concerns me as you're basically saying that SolarCoin is governed by US law which effectively undermines what you're trying to achieve with SolarCoin as a global solar rewards scheme. Are you able to elaborate on this please?

There are always going to be jurisdictional holes for any program. There are similar issues within the US for various rewards programs by large companies due to local laws. Sometimes things aren't compatible from one government to the next. It's nothing to be concerned with, it just happens.

This has nothing to do with SolarCoin, it has to do with funding Terrorism and dealing with countries that have sanctions for whatever reason. Much of the US law on these guidelines are part of a Global initiative so it really doesn't imply that SolarCoin is controlled by US Law just that it abides by the general laws in place. Why would you want SolarCoin to go against laws or be complicit in transactions that skirt a global general benefit of law?

I understand what the regulations are doing in regard to Venezuela and am 100% behind not funding terrorism in any guise - although I believe that if you read the documentation referenced above there are only specific people named in the Annex of the documentation that you're prohibited from funding, not the country as a whole.

My point of concern is that if that the SolarCoin grant pool is governed by US law then you're effectively limiting it to grants for countries that the US deem "trustworthy" rather than granting to the solar generators regardless of origin.


You can still send SLR there if you arent a US citizen, but I think the Solarcoin Foundation is registered in the US as a charity so they are limited by US law.

It would seem to me that the SolarCoin Foundation should be registered in multiple countries so that is could work around any such restrictions. Given that a lot of the development work being mentioned in press releases is located around Europe it would make sense to register in this region also. That might already be the case.

excuse my ignorance but what is a Bail-in? I think the UK is gona try backtrack on Brexit, at least they will do what they can in the deal to minimize the out come, like they will be out but still in and it'll probably cost them more than they were paying before.

There is no coincidence that Brexit happened. They knew what was coming. America has already enabled it to legalize in law thanks to democratic senators Dodd & Frank. The Dodd/Frank act is a guise to seem like they tried to save America from another Bail-Out and then they will blame the banks for Bailing-In. Bad enough they allowed the first Bail-Out only to sucker us to an IN. They will turn the FDIC into an insurance clearing house for the banks. Let me see if I can find better info to catch you up to speed...
Original Article and she predicted the 2008 Debacle.
https://ellenbrown.com/2015/12/29/a-crisis-worse-than-isis-bail-ins-begin/

Italy briefly... EU basics...
https://www.dollarvigilante.com/blog/2016/01/26/italian-bank-panic-bail-in-the-next-domino-to-fall.html

FDIC there is more info on this I just can't find the best article on how they will dupe us...
Quote
But the banks would still have to spin off certain riskier derivative transactions "that helped bring American International Group Inc. to the brink of failure in the 2008 financial crisis."

Similarly, the Fiscal Times concluded that the cromnibus provision does not mean "that when banks lose money on swaps and derivatives trades, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation will have to make them whole. It also doesn’t suggest that, when a bank fails, the taxpayers have to bail out depositors.

"The money the FDIC holds in the Deposit Insurance Fund, and uses to reimburse depositors in failed banks, doesn’t come from taxpayers. It comes from the banks themselves. Secondly, there is no sense in which the FDIC is on the hook to make banks whole if a swaps deal or derivatives trade goes bad. The FDIC insures deposits – hence the name – not the bank itself."

Looks like he has a 100k more solars to sell on the ask.  Cool

Well of course he is Smiley the trick is to buy his coins. The 23k buy was me...Hell run out faster if we buy them haha Grin

 Grin   Imagine if those coins he dumped last 2.5 months where in the hands of stronger people we would be at 50 cents right now. Are time will be soon either way.

Yeah who knows where we would be! Its nuts because I get the feeling almost everyone else has been holding for years.
At the same time this guy is just super greedy he will obviously try to buy back at a profit. The question is who will be selling their coins. you must have seen the 250k and 450k buy orders around 0.00001000 - 0.00002000.

But in all honesty I just don't think anyone is going to sell him that amount of coins at that price. It's ridiculous. Like I said earlier I won't be selling and I have a good feeling about most of the SLR holders/community.
But hey if it does reach those really low prices I wont hesitate to invest some more

Edit: He is probably the only one with that amount of coins that would be willing to sell haha

Edit 2: 38 BTC of buy support right now

The seller can't get them back cheaper they are cashing out and can't wait 40 years lol, why would you buy a coin to sell it cheaper? That is why distribution needs to happen. The large holders must sell off. Then there is median price point that won't go down anymore. If all of this PoW coin hangs out there waiting to pounce on people buying in, the price may stagnate. This is your network metric at work too. SolarCoin has such a monumental market that the PoW coin can erode simultaneously while claimers try to get their due also. Too bad it never took off like XMR maybe the PoW holders could pump XMR style!

Well I guess we will have to agree to disagree. I think the seller has every intention to get every single coin back + more.
And yes XMR got pumped like crazy :p But nothing new here. These pumps and dumps come and go. I would not touch Monero where it is now..I sold the few I had yesterday and I'm getting more SLR with that !

You see 6 months ago it was interesting to see anything over 5 BTC support on the buy side.
Now all of a sudden we have 250 000$  in BTC just chilling on the buy side...
That tells me everything

It's really starting to become serious (I remember there being like 1500$ buy support) and I think it wont be long until we get added on other exchanges.

I agree that it was a quick rise on the XMR side of things but I don't believe it to be a pump and dump, the incorporation of XMR to Darknet markets isn't a small thing, if people start using it instead of bitcoin then it's a game changer for XMR and it's current price is nothing. Don't forget it's that same thing that took bitcoin from a few cents to dollars per coin then 10s of dollars per coin. I agree that there is speculative money in there too hoping for that exact situation, but I don't agree that it's a pure pump and dump. I personally really like monero as well as solar coin. I think privacy is an important thing and ideally I'd have a Solarcoin ethos and POST with Monero privacy that would be my perfect coin.

Sure, I wasn't really calling it a PnD just a Pump. They can buy up their own coin and then level off if they are smart.

Privacy? There is no way around that if you like FIAT. KYC-AML the exchange has to know you. What you do in the dark eco system may be one thing, but everyone has to come out into the light of day somewhere.

I think the Devs at Burst and Qora could help SolarCoin achieve their end goals. They have AT implementation and have successfully transferred ACCT (Atomic Cross-Chain Transfers) through CIYAM development. Burst is green mining through PoC on memory hardened algo.

I also noticed the 40 BTC buy support went to 10 one day then back to 40. To be a serious coin it has to have this type of market so this may be the profits rolled in from PoW coin to back the market. Smart idea!

Totally but ideally we don't want to use fiat currency, I see a future (want a future) where everything is bought and sold with crypto in everyday life which would be great.

Then delist from the exchange and make a go at it Smiley

I do where I can, I'm a minimalist so I don't spend much, food, rent and some scooter petrol. Other stuff when needed I get online and always look for a crypto accepting shop, but unfortunately where I currently live in the end of Spain crypto is unheard of so makes shopping for food a bit difficult :/ that's why I plan to move to the Barcelona area where I can spend crypto. Smiley

Very cool, you are truly an idealist and a person after my own heart and mind about crypto. I hope Brexit doesn't affect you too much. You do know about the Bail-In's that happened in Italy right? This will be coming to America soon! Brexit happened right when 140Trillion came due. It is being shuffled for the next president to deal with. Hillary will make us own part of the banks and Trump say screw you take your toxic illegal debt and eat it.

excuse my ignorance but what is a Bail-in? I think the UK is gona try backtrack on Brexit, at least they will do what they can in the deal to minimize the out come, like they will be out but still in and it'll probably cost them more than they were paying before.
