Topic: Yes, PIVX Is Now Top 20 CryptoCurrency In World - page 3. (Read 8617 times)

Just wait till Gal Gadot starts pumping PIVX on the Tonight Show when she's on her Justice League and Wonder Woman press tours 

LOL i'm not the only one that did the reverse image search!

It's ok to not have your real face I think, i'm fine with that, but then you should go with something like an animal or something so there can be no accusation of "misleading".

I have a funny feeling Mrs X is a boy personally, not that it really matters.

Zcoin is higher if you look at total coins probably

But what if there is more than one whale?

Sadly I must agree. After reverse image searches of the team and watching the Slack channel for several hours, I'm seeing too many inconsistencies (plus the very similar teams between IoP) and annoying grassroots vagueness similar to both PIVX and IoP marketing. It all just makes me uncomfortable. Apparently an Israeli superstar (Gal Gabor) is on the team!! I'm not a FUDer but just some red flags to note.

The website is well-made, the PR very good, and the pitch convincing but I'm now apologizing to the folks who may have took me as a "fanboy" a few evenings ago in the main thread. Glad I got my share mostly as DNET and avoiding a burst too. If the project is legit and it takes off then shame on me, but I'm pulling my risk out of it too.

Some quotes from Slack tonight when someone asked about next steps and a roadmap from a "Matias"

[1:26] 
As far as I know there isn't a roadmap

[1:26] 
everyday we are joined by 100 new members

[1:26] 
100 new skill sets

[1:26] 
100 new set of values

[1:27] 
Everybody is pushing in the direction they think we should go, and talking with others to form teams to make things happen

[1:27] 
I do not expect we will ever have a detailed linear plan like [removed coin name to prevent any accusations I'm partial to another project]

[1:27] 
we are going to have many ideas

[1:27] 
we are going to try the good ones

[1:28] 
we are going to build a lot of things, create projects to push as forward

[1:28] 
some will survive and will be adopted by a big part of the community

[1:28] 
some will fail, and we will learn from them

[1:29] 
we do not know where are we going, but we have the manifesto to guide us and a really strong common base of shared values




USERNAME REMOVED [1:32 AM]
indeed build a strong community, but the business development plan will be the next thing that moves the project forward after major exchanges

[1:33] 
it needs to start be worked on

[1:34] 
you say no linear plan like [removed], but investors will want to see outlines, being too free floating is a risk

The bug is that it burns the money instead of awarding it, becuase of something POS related is my guess. They said it will be fixed soom. You guys just love to be harsh on everyone lol. Such is the nature of these forums.

Congratulations. But the volume was too low.

No, but the fact is what is supposed to be their primary source of income, the 10% treasury, has been down for 6 MONTHS with a so called "MINOR" bug.

Go ask Evan how long the Dash treasury would be down for if they found a minor bug in that?

I think Evan may be a bit of a con artist and a little morally challenged, but as far as actual coding goes I have no reason to believe he isn't capable, or at least capable of hiring people who are capable.

Once Pivx fix that I will be a lot less harsh on them.

After more research, I am sad to announce, stay away from PIVX. Being owned + partner with & hosted by a media advertising company should be enough reasoning. Aside from the fact they focus more on advertising and hype through social media vs working on fixing broken code or implementing new things. (see my previous post) Happy I got out when I did before the bubble burst.

DO all the bitcoin devs constantly submit code?

How about Evan Duffield the founder of Dash and genius creator? LOL

https://github.com/evan82

You can also go to their GitHub and see for yourself how much actual coding is being done: https://github.com/PIVX-Project/PIVX

Some of the "developers" listed on their new website haven't posted an update since December or probably even before for some of them.

LOL GET EM!

IMO, you can read for yourself the lengths the PIVX community is going to protect the voice and rights of small money community members and avoid whales controlling it right here:

https://forum.pivx.org/t/how-much-should-a-proof-of-stake-vote-cost-in-a-decentralized-voting-system/214

If you read, see how sustained the volume has been, and see the distribution of masternodes, and somehow STILL think this is a pump and dump... then there's literally nothing to rationally discuss with someone like that, and I'm glad they won't be participating in the community moving forward.

I notice there has been speculation whether pivx is a p&d coin and if they have devs working full time or part time, but let me say this as a matter of fact.

Seval of the PIVX team also work on another project, Fermat IOP. (Markus, Sarah, and Fuzzbawls). I am a supporter of Fermat (even run the MS state chapter, but that's another story) Anyways, I was introduce to PIVX back when it was around 3000 sats by Markus, who suggested I get into it. It has been a great buy. The media hype and boost through social networks has been amazing. Do I think they have any full time devs working and not part time? Well, the github speaks for its self. I think PIVX has potential, however I feel it's reasoning is simply because it's trying to cash in on the hype Dash has brought. I'm not in long term, but I won't say it's a scam. I have noticed about 10 diff alt accounts spamming Polo's trollbox with requests of PIVX and mentions, which is terrible is a terrible marketing practice. (looks shady as fuck). I would steer away from that type of false advertising, but that's just me. Should you invest? Well, use your own judgement of course.

Artificial suppression before Polo gets in on PIVX?  Very interesting...

This makes perfect sense! I was wondering why the price was being held back with sell walls. If some whale knows it will be going on Poloniex soon they can buy this coin on Bittrex while holding the price back from spiking. This allows them to continue buying while still paying a low price!

It won't be any surprise to me when this goes on Poloniex and then the price skyrockets making the whale who bought a lot of PIVX on Bittrex a very rich person.

Why stop at the moon when you can go to Uranus? 

choochoo!

I wouldnt hype Ethereum I dont have it and I dont like it.

I just read the title of a news article a few days ago:

http://fortune.com/2017/02/28/ethereum-jpmorgan-microsoft-alliance/

Now I have read it properly not just saw the title and made assumptions I realize the money hasnt gone to the dev team.

I still think the news article will be helping Ethereum though.

Well not a big enough whale to pay 8532.00 usd to get a masternode anyway lol

(I as a minnow aspire to 'whaledom', alas....seems not to be....I could make my own coin and be a legend in my own mind however)
