I was wondering why Bitcoin took a dive in price. Now I know.

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Thanks for the spyware popup ad, lol.

Bitcoin (and other cryptos) have gone through all of this hoopla before. No surprise it's happening again. Each time, if you look back, it tends to surge just after once China (or whoever) figures out the sky isn't actually falling and that they can now buy in way cheaper because of the drop.

Though, the question is... will they rebuy into BTC or move to one of the smaller currencies with a higher potential margin. I'm hoping for the latter, as I spread about $50 across a couple of the more popular smaller coins. If I loose it, whatevs. If it bitcoins and jumps to thousands, I just paid for my next vacation.

Any views on the other fountain apps out there? Do they really pay out when one gets to 500,000 or so?
Why wouldn't everyone just run ten apps or more on ten phones with macro scripts?
Cheers

Most of them are based on ad revenue. They pay, but they also have stuff in place to stop abuse... so it's hard to game it. SteemIt at least isn't really a fountain, but a project intended to build a social media platform based on the blockchain technology. It's still growing/work in process... but personally I really enjoy it. I've made about $200 off of it so far from posts, about $30 of which I have pulled out in cash just to prove I could. Though because of transaction fees it ended up being about $14 after I got it. Still more than Facebook/Tritter/Reddit have ever paid me for posting.

[I have one personal friend on there who referred me. He's been on it for about 2 years. Makes enough from it to pay his mortgage.]

Interesting, cheers. Why such high costs to pull it out in USD? Do they make you pay the Steem you earn into their own wallet? And put the charges there? Are there any exchanges dealing in Steem yet?
I came across this article a while ago on coindesk

CEO should go blockchain. Every karma point earns coin.

I've done a lot of investing and research on bitcoin and altcoin. It's not going to survive. The entire market is a scheme.

North Korea is now hacking bitcoin markets in South Korea. It's just a big mess of crypto hacking and a dirty black market of thieves and scammers.

So just like traditional currencies then. The internet 2.0 aspect of it all is the blockchain. All the new ICOs seem in part at least to be a bit insecure. If you did all that research, is there one coin which stood- out in your mind as being more secure and un-hackable than any of the others?

That's interesting. Sounds ideal.
How many hours would you say that took to earn about?

Seems like a nice little earner.
