Topic: [UNO] Unobtanium Info & Discussion - Hardfork block 1042000 - Merge Mine w/BTC! - page 669. (Read 1047042 times)

Agreed.  Uno is one of the fairest and most stable coins out there.  I could see Uno rising to the top 20 coins on Coinmarketcap in the next year or two as some of the other coins drop off of the radar.  Of the 400+ coins on CMC, I'm betting that only about 10% survive the next five years. As the market consolidates, UNO should eventually find itself in a very enviable position.

uno was one of the very few coins today that didn't take a considerable hit from the rising bitcoin.
Almost all other coins took hits of up to 20% from people dumping for bitcoin. I think that's another great thing today. Uno handled the sudden rise in bitcoin pretty nicely.

It also shows Uno hasn't many daytraders on board yet. Since it is pretty much confirmed now almost all Uno are still with longtermers it could maybe even evade the typical  pressure resulting from a rising bitcoin (if that was to become a reality). 

Uno looking strong.

by the way: has it been discussed here before? Uno is on mintpal v2 included and they want to be blazing fast now. Yay! High speed trading uno! Need tighter spread later! 

@ Edgar: welcome to Un-Ex. Other coins talk talk talk. The Unobtanium community develops develops develops.

@ Sirsmokes, Ian hasn't written a paper. I will ask him to drop in.

@ Scam Coins in Languages other than English:

serious for a second, something is happening here. Been hangin' out on the Indonesian (Malay) language threads. Have seen several coins -- '95% IPO POS coin promoting deep feelings for The Earth' -- that would be called out as scams if announced in English. Well, what's the bet that a huge new wave of scam-coinnery is underway in other languages?

Ladies and Gentlemen,

To the moon we ride.  I am strapped in and ready for takeoff!  

Hi edgar,
Post it over on the trade thread and I'll fill it for you if nobody else beats me to it.

i want to live that far out in the boonies.  looks nice

WTB 20 UNO @ .0045

Lol nice! Are emus wild down there? I live more in the sticks than a city, but it is fairly developed all the same. I love the convenience of having things close, but don't care much for the crowds.

Is there a paper Ian has written about it, or more just his ideas?


I can't rule it out when i am speculating, or at least i try to lessen my risk a little bit by changing some of my crypto to metals and such. With how much our society as human beings has been built upon technology and the internet, i do agree that if we are without it, not having the internet is going to be the LEAST of my concerns. Even in my thoughts about such a scenario eventually i have people getting the web back online, because it really is that awesome. It is like having a library with every resource manual at your fingertips constantly. Man discovers fire, the wheel, antibiotics, the internet. Yep yep yep.

Sadly i see this capitalistic system in the states collapsing a lot sooner than i see the internet. It isn't that i am fearful of it happening, it just seems like by selling and trading debt and having nothing giving value to the dollar other than the good will and faith of the economy, that it is DOOMED. Only time will tell. The one thing i am sure of, the price of ammo has gone up quite a bit over the past few years, and doesn't seem to be coming back down. 

@smokesalot
internet outage will never be global and local only temporary. When there is electricity, there is internet normally.
Only exception to that would be huge solar flare/ solar storm but since that would lead to melt down of the nuclear reactors worldwide it would be extinction anyways.
I personally can not think of any scenario where the internet is globally and permanently defunct without an extinction level event - in which case money will be your smallest concern.
Well, i choose to see it positive: won't happen in my life and if it does i'll see then what to do. No need on planning on things that don't happen anyways. That's just distraction. A fail of the monetary fiat system is by far more likely than any of the other bad scenarios. That is real. So crypto does make sense. I do trust my internet connection more and i think it is more sustainable longterm than the debt driven inflation fiat system we have now.

I am far more concerned about the financial system than i am about a functional internet or human extinction tbh. Internet, humanity or the financial system - which will fail first? I think the answer is quite obvious. 

Sirsmokes, fire off a PM to Ian, my offsider. His insight into Will The Net Collapse When It All Happens is brilliant and re-assuring.

And where will I be by then? well, check out how far out in the boonies I live. Emu chick looking in my living-room window.

The new BW exchange is registered according to the site:

"Alternative Markets LLC is registered and compliant with the United States Bank Secrecy Act, FinCEN BSA ID 31000053412302"

So it really shouldn't be too much of a hassle considering they are u.s based. I would imagine it to be like setting up a coinbase account.

I get what you are driving at, i personally feel we are at least a decade away from mass adoption of crypto. So yes, my immediate goals are to sell off about half of my holdings to pay off my debts, and hold the rest for when the inevitable collapse of the american government takes place. I doubt i will have internet access then, so i really question the value of the coins, but hey, if after the nuclear apocalypse, there is an internet, and people willing to use it for the exchange of cryptos, i will be prepared.

Ya know, everyone always talks like the internet has been around forever.. like the network and having access to the internet is not a weak point in crypto. I can't say i have ever read much about people worrying about this. It does concern me though. Yeah, when i view the future i see us becoming more connected into the digital space, but my access to it is really limited to  either having access to a cell phone, or an isp. Can the internet be destroyed, meeehhh, i don't really think so, but as far as i know crypto only works if the net works. I guess we just don't talk about it much because no one thinks it is possible?

I don't understand why this is never brought up, but people can speculate about how in the future every item will have a coin attached to it 

@ Mr. Transactional says, 'Look at all the groceries I bought with Unobtanium!'

@ Gustav: yeh, this metric is a winner.

m

got a meme for you

with this higher volume of last hours uno has now officially surpassed bitcoin in the supply/tradevolume equation (tradevolume devided by new coins per day) on global scale. Approaching drk and ltc now. Uno is on the way to the top. Go mUno!  

Once cracking LTC and DRK on 'tradevolume vs inflation' it'll be the No1 coin for investors and traders. There is still so much room for growth. We haven't even started this thing yet. Very high potential in Uno from the fundamental standpoint.
Same volume as we had during last weeks after the halving will put Uno at the Top of all the coins (including bitcoin) in regards of fundamental analysis and as things stand also in TA of charts. I'm expecting great success. Price will have to grow a lot to keep in check the volume/supply for the time to come.
To the mUn!

5$ bare minimum from my standpoint. Consistent trading and stability around higher levels will bring confidence. Steady growth is to be prefered to insane spikes in this case. Uno looking good.




lol at stupid Kim Jong Un jokes. Staph it FK!  

Just to be clear... THESE are counterfeit! Some tyrant got hold of a printing press, it seems.

Lol! Perfect 

Sorry my skills are very limited.  $2 Uno will give way to $5 Uno.

@awards: great work benefactor!

@btc-e and price indepandance:
btc-e have other options too. Did you try perfect money? That stuff is additional risk of course since you have another middleman who could run with the money.

But it is true. Uno would need a good fiat-exchange to become really independant - and a higher marketcap would also help. I think it could be achieved down the road. Currently Uno turned out to be very well pegged to 2 USD for a long time. A great start.

Had another thought. What happens when bitcoin foundation messes things up? What if they would ever betray the community because they were corrupted by big money? What if they would decide next year to remove the hard cap of 21million and replace it with 4% inflation? Where would people go?
I think it is another thing going for uno that there is no such foundation that could become currupted. If the btc-foundation would ever fail in a big way, people could switch to Uno. Let's also keep in mind: what if bitcoin-foundation delivers a major blow? Uno would be there for people to go to.
We don't have a foundation and i don't think we need one with hard assigned possitions. It's good to have no hirarchy in place and no closed door politics. I think it's a good thing to have all the important things discussed in public. It is also consistent in the spirit of decentralization and open source. I could not think of a situation ever where closed door politcs would be an advantage. They are really just an disadvantage undermining trust and open things up to corruption. So Uno could/should really be a coin that sticks to its initial vision and doesn't become corrupt easily. A great thing going for it.
The 250k max coins is an important point of uno. So along that line of thought of the possibility of a corrupt or failing btc-foundation, uno suddenly really becomes a hedge for a fail of bitcoin.
Just a play of thoughts. Not saying btc-foundation will fail, but it is a possible scenario that should be allowed to think about.

So as things stand: Price independance from bitcoin is a thing uno could truely establish. Would be a great thing to see that happen. No obstacles in the way. Just needs a little more adoption, a little higher cap and solid fiat exchange or two. Nothing too outlandish. So far it is doing quite well.
