Don't even worry about that shit. You are an early adopter. Just remember that a lot of questions have been answered. You can google shit about wallets, blockchains, and cryptos.
What you really can't is what cats want to buy. Just try to stay updated and if you have any questions I'm another person you can PM. You've dropped a lot of stuff around this forum and I'm sure folks have no problem helping you with specifics.
Let's all get this shit.
Would anyone happen to have the September issue.

Update:
Sold all my DGB...There are no Oct 2 CitiChallenge Awards
So I predict the value MIGHT go up to 400 sats cause of their new website but will go back down soon.
I took the money and bought a new coin called Elixir, signal is ELIX
Very low Supply and a good idea. Check it out

Kyber is at 2.40 right now. How long before it rises and how high you predict?
Kyber @2.40 and is on
_ liqui
_ etherdelta
_ tidex
Elixer @.05 is on
_ coinexchange
Gas @16.46 and is on

Damn looks like im signing up for more exchanges.
Definitely getting elixir tmr at least $100 unless i get objections
Love the fact that its also plans to give and receive loans via the blockchain and provide incentives for paying on time or loaning your shit.
Kyber is at least a 1-2 billion dollar marketcap coin. I always buy on the dip, though. Hype and FOMO might push it to 3.50+ today. Remember, we're not out of the woods with this China shit yet.
Good look. I grabbed both kyber and elixir.
Hey guys I bought in to a group buy to get the Palm Beach Report monthly subscription. I spent $300 on it to share with the Slack Group and this thread. If you're willing to contribute like some of the brothas in the slack are to the cost then send it to paypal.me/theycallmebe or BTC to 1DiBNgXkAHaPtFERUAs2XY5bKh2GJiZKvz
I'll post it when it drops like usual but we'll have the report as soon as it comes out so we can get in on the pumps.
Had we gotten in on the GAS pump, we could have doubled our money by now. I'll pitch in for October.
Exactly. The buy in is good until September 2018 so we won't miss out again
Anyone use a good spreadsheet for tracking their portfolio?
With all of these I figured there has to be a spreadsheet that covers different exchanges and pulls data from cryptocompare.com
I'm creating my own but its not pretty and will eventually figure out how to pull realtime data from somewhere.

Yeah, I'm definitely in. Would love to get in on the Slack group too if you can put me on.
Also, you think those reports are just pumps? I read the report on GAS and it seemed like good logical info.
These are the wrong kinds of questions to ask. Not trying to be funny brother, but no one can give you great answers. It's going to run when it hits bigger exchanges but the how high and when is a crapshoot. It'll more than double that 2.70 for damn sure
You are correct. I'm watching / reading learning. After buying Kyber, BTC and Elix today .. I'm falling back on the trading and focusing on learning.

CBS's Showtime caught mining crypto-coins in viewers' web browsers
Who placed the JavaScript code on two primetime dot-coms? So far, it's a mystery

The websites of US telly giant CBS's Showtime contained JavaScript that secretly commandeered viewers' web browsers over the weekend to mine cryptocurrency.
The flagship Showtime.com and its instant-access ShowtimeAnytime.com sibling silently pulled in code that caused browsers to blow spare processor time calculating new Monero coins – a privacy-focused alternative to the ever-popular Bitcoin. The hidden software typically consumed as much as 60 per cent of CPU capacity on computers visiting the sites.
The scripts were written by Code Hive, a legit outfit that provides JavaScript to website owners: webmasters add the code to their pages so that they can earn slivers of cash from each visitor as an alternative to serving adverts to generate revenue. Over time, money mined by the Code-Hive-hosted scripts adds up and is transferred from Coin Hive to the site's administrators. One Monero coin, 1 XMR, is worth about $92 right now.
However, it's extremely unlikely that a large corporation like CBS would smuggle such a piece of mining code onto its dot-coms – especially since it charges subscribers to watch the hit TV shows online – suggesting someone hacked the websites' source code to insert the mining JavaScript and make a quick buck.
The JavaScript, which appeared on the sites at the start of the weekend and vanished by Monday, sits between HTML comment tags that appear to be an insert from web analytics biz New Relic. Again, it is unlikely that an analytics company would deliberately stash coin-mining scripts onto its customers' pages, so the code must have come from another source – or was injected by miscreants who had compromised Showtime's systems.
Here's a screenshot of the code on showtime.com, seen by El Reg before it was removed. The mining script was loaded early on the page, we note.

We contacted both Showtime and New Relic today asking for more details. Showtime refused to comment. New Relic told us it had nothing to do with the mystery code.
"We take the security of our browser agent extremely seriously and have multiple controls in place to detect malicious or unauthorized modification of its script at various points along its development and deployment pipeline," New Relic's Andrew Schmitt told us.
"Upon reviewing our products and code, the HTML comments shown in the screenshot that are referencing newrelic were not injected by New Relic's agents. It appears they were added to the website by its developers."
We also asked Code Hive for details on the user account the injected code was mining for. "We can't give out any specific information about the account owner as per our privacy terms," the outfit informed us. "We don't know much about these keys or the user they belong to anyway."
The outfit did confirm to us, however, that the email address used to set up the account was a personal one, and was not an official CBS email address, further suggesting malicious activity.
Pirate Bay
Coin Hive's mining code was at the center of some attention last week when file-sharing search engine The Pirate Bay admitted it had added the coin-gathering JavaScript on its pages in order to test its profitability in an effort to get rid of ads on its site.
The code was poorly configured – web admins are allowed to set the hashing rate – and resulted in people's machines slowing to a crawl, sparking complaints. Following the outcry, The Pirate Bay acknowledged the presence of the mining script, calling it "only a test" and promised to limit the CPU usage to make it less annoying. A few days later, the organization dropped the idea all together.
Pirate Bay digs itself a new hole: Mining alt-coin in slurper browsers

Code Hive not only offers in-page mining but also mining through URL shorteners and CAPTCHAs. The huge advantage to the website operator using the code is that not only does the script use someone else's processing power but also their electricity, meaning that you can make money with very little effort. So long as you are willing to annoy your visitors.
Coin Hive's pitch is that this script could allowed publishers to pull annoying ads from their website – which is something that could become more important as browsers increasingly block ads.
However, the code has already been inserted in browser extensions and on typosquatted websites. And now, it looks as though someone may have tried to hack Showtime's website in order to insert the code and make money while not having any direct impact on the website itself.
If Coin Hive wants to be seen as legitimate rather than a tool for hackers and malware authors, it is going to have to rapidly figure out a better authorization system for big websites and work on making itself less attractive to scammers. Meanwhile, ad blocking tools are now killing the JavaScript on sight. ®

The makers of the Solarin secure cellie are building a bitphone
by John Biggs (@johnbiggs)
Bitcoin-powered cellphones — basically phones that can securely hold and send cryptocurrencies — have long been a fascinating if undeveloped concept in the crypto community. When phones talk to each other using BTC or other currencies — whether it’s to pay bills or send money to friends — you open up an interesting world of commerce.
Finney is a new $999 phone by the makers of the Solarin secure phone that aims to offer a “ultra-secure blockchain-enabled environment, with the functionality and essentials of Android OS.” Further, the company intends to release a desktop computer for $799 with the same features. In short, this is the world’s first proper bitphone.
In order to maintain true crypto bona fides, Sirin Labs is holding a token sale that will allow only token holders to buy the phone, thus futzing with the phone’s demand curve and allowing users to trade in the Finney’s own currency.
The phone will have a 5.2-inch display, 256GB of storage and 8GB RAM. It will have a 16-megapixel rear camera and a 12-megapixel front camera. Further, the phones “will form an independent blockchain network, a distributed ledger that is scalable and lightweight, powered by the IOTA’s Tangle technology.” The phone is named after Bitcoin pioneer Hal Finney, who died in 2014.
The built-in wallet will have physical authentication, including three factors of authentication and secure resource sharing among phones. There also will be an app store for decentralized apps.
Whether or not the Finney is a simple receptacle for crypto buzzwords or a real unique product remains to be seen, but it certainly seems like Sirin is pushing all the right buttons when it comes to making one of the first real bitphones. Hopefully things work out batter for the Finney than they did for Solarin.

Use the Brave browser or copy and paste the info and read it outside of the site
It was at $34 less than 10 days ago
Im holding too but gambling will be legalized soon
where did you get that information? do you mean in the USA?
10 days? Blockfolio is telling me that it wasn't that high since August. But I'll take it either way.
Apparently it'll be opening up on Korean exchanges, so that could be the reason for the increase. I guess China can't hurt it anymore since they've already suspended trading and ICOs. When they lift the ban, this shit could skyrocket.
How dp you fellas feel about adoption of crypto by retailers? I'm trying not to get too hyped but i see crazy potential after bouncing ideas around with friends
