I was talking with my son this morning about the cryptocurrency markets and he's like, "Dad, it's still mooning. It's just that the moon is beneath us right now."
Dude, I've now read two of your articles, and I have to say that they're both awesome! They're informative enough so you get the basic idea of the crypto your talking about, but at the same time, they are entertaining to read because they're not filled with technical jargon that I can read from the cryptos whitepaper if I really wanted to research the coin.
I am a starting writer (my native language isn't English) and I really hope I can keep on learning stuff from your articles/writing style, and implement some of it to my own posts :)!
As you have mentioned, the people behind this project are worth looking and so is their project. Only half a billion mined so far and 21 billion total supply. If the hashing algorithm makes it decentralized, the supply augments that decentralization. Although we have seen massive rise in big supply coins in the recent bull run, coins with big supply tend to be stable in price action in my opinion. One of the reasons SBD shot up to $18 was its very low supply as compared to other listed coins. Steem is quite the opposite.
Interesting project nonetheless and worth throwing some spare btc at, if affordable for long-term.
I've always liked Patrick Byrne. He's always struck me as a freedom fighter and someone that has seen there corruption that exists in the system and wants to change it. Ravencoin will debonair be an interesting experiment. Thanks for the helpful post on how to buy it.
Anything sitting on Bitshares is super intriguing to me as well.
I watched Omar Bam's video of Mr. Byrne's talk at this year's North American Bitcoin Conference, and it was very exciting indeed. Hearing a captain of industry call out the corruption in a public setting, as opposed to drunk at a bar, is very rare!
I read a bit about this coin maybe a week or so ago. Then forgot about it hah. Thank you for the reintroduction hopefully I will buy some for speculative purposes this time.
I really hate BTS. I do not want to buy a token to trade other tokens. Wish I could just pay the fee out of the tokens I am buying or selling..
In all honesty I have not looked into BTS as a speculation itself. Really just frustrated with BTS exchanges. I will eventually need to sell some Steem for other crypto's and thought Openledger may be the perfect option to avoid blocktrades or centralized exchanges. Alas this is not so because I need to first buy BTS to use as the fee of for example Steem to Bitcoin. :/ I am fine paying exchange fees I just wish I could pay the fee in Steem or other crypto's I already hold.
Thanks for the offer. I bought 1 steem worth through blocktrades. :-). Didn't realize how many bts i would need for each trade (indeed tiny). I see now that trades are very cheap. Will test the withdrawal process as well, hopefully 15 bts will last a while. Time to try out the platform. Cheers!
Actually it's something which is quite useful to us and I'd like to thank u for sharing ur thoughts with us and with this many people will want to give it a try!!
I myself after reading this will definitely want to give it a try!!
Once again thanks and lots of love from me!!
Cheers n have a nice day ahead!!
@lukestokes you are doing a great job for changing the world, that's an amazing step and about your achievement you have done alot that will help people like us to learn alot from you, if there is one institution that the media views as beyond criticism, it is the media itself. So it is perhaps unsurprising that there are few stories about the “deep capture” of the nation’s major news organizations. More surprising is that mainstream journalists (because they are meek, constrained by their bureaucracies, or simply do not have the time) have refrained from publishing serious investigations and commentary about the “deep capture” of our nation’s other institutions...
While Ravencoin is not the first ASIC resistant coin, Overstock’s interest in it is particularly intriguing and may lend it much needed support when it comes to development and subsequent adoption.
Just generally asking: Why needs a game a coin? Pokemon Go disrupted the world and didn´t need a coin for it, right? Also, when they already started in Q1 2016(!), how could the team survive so far, which startup capital did they have and why the ICO comes so late in the game (3 months prior final game release)? To me, these timeline questions are serious. Sorry, I don´t want to create FUD.
I take it i have to come back tomorrow for this master plan :)
I believe i read Raven are going to hard forks every so often and change the code dynamics to ensure that asic mining platforms wont be able to mine, or if they can it will be for a very short time frame.
There are so many ico coming out on a daily basis. Not that i am complaining its a goof way to generate revenue on earn.com, however Its difficult to know which are a) legit and b) worth investing in. Thanks for your opinions on these ones.
When people talk about coins, and what they like and hate about them, it is that part I especially like.. just like you did.
For some reason most shillers have cavemen attitude when explaining things: "buy this coin. It's going to moon"
You ask them why they think that... or why it is a good coin... they just say "cuz bro... its gonna moon"
...sigh
Anyway, good job @lukestokes
Thanks. :)

That kid is smart.

Thanks man! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope you continue getting value out of what I post.

Why do you hate BTS?

The fees on BitShares are tiny compared to other exchanges. What's your BitShares user name? I'll send you some.

I'm a big fan of BitShares. I've blogged about it often, as you can see:
Sir i create a account here and thanks for step-by-step instructions
Did you just include a screenshot of most of your password? You'll want to change that.
Actually it's something which is quite useful to us and I'd like to thank u for sharing ur thoughts with us and with this many people will want to give it a try!!

awesome blockchain ravencoin post thanks for shearing

From what I understand the others like X11 failed. Do you know of some that are really resistant right now?

Can you ask that on the post about CryptoHunt? Thanks.
really interesting post @lukestokes
this great information I appreciate your crytocrrency news..
This raven looks very interesting. Thanks for sharing it @lukestokes. I only know few coins but let's give this new tech a try.
Thanks ... Great
I take it i have to come back tomorrow for this master plan :)

I have no master plan, it was just a 3 part series because the first post got too long, and I had to leave for the night. :)
I know that you're generally not a huge ICO fan/participator, so I'm sure Academy will kill it. Good luck with this one brother!
