I really cannot speak to the eventual results he will experience because I cannot see the future and each gambler's results will vary. Nonetheless, Safemoon specifically isn't really gambling. It is a scam. If you lay $20 on a craps table but the table is rigged for you to lose then you are not gambling ... you are being taken. Safemoon is designed to collapse once the directors have milked it for all it is worth. They have collected the money for the initial token issue and now, three months later they have already converted one third of the tokens they sold to others back to their possession ... in a different currency that will hold its value when Safemoon collapses. Xadoman would rather watch all his equity evaporate than to admit the obvious scam right in front of him and just get out with what he has. gfm7175 wrote:If only I had a dollar for every time I heard, with regard to the lottery, "you have to play to win"...

Ahhhh, yup... that's another good one... When it comes down to it, we'd both be rich in the end. The "just a few dollars each week" mindset is a stupid mindset in my opinion because "just a few dollars" over an extended period of time adds up to "a hefty sum of dollars"... Even a single $2 powerball ticket once a week for ten years would add up to over $1,000.00, and I've seen numerous people spend a lot more than $2/week on such gambling... Now I'm not familiar with typical gambling habits, but I was stunned to run across someone at a gas station on my vacation five years ago who bought like every single scratcher that this gas station in Wyoming had to offer... If I recall correctly, she spent close to $300 on scratchers (I know it was over $200 for sure). I hope that some other explanation was involved with that and that she wasn't just buying all of those scratchers for herself... That's not how I would spend my money, but to each their own... |

How would you access you crypto, if the internet fails? I don't think the entire internet could be shutdown, all at once, and for a long time, but there are blackouts in some areas. Servers, providers, fail, shut down for maintenance. Your wallet is web-based, and resides on a server. The internet has been great technology, but it's mature, actually getting old. I do see us moving toward something different, and not too far in the future. There is a huge push for 5G. SpaceX Starlink. Both can provide more capacity, than the internet can typically provide. Traffic an server speed will always dictate how fast your internet connection will be. Doesn't matter what your provider promised you. The internet will be around a long time, but the new services will only provide a gateway, an option. The new services a purely for profit, and you are going to pay a little differently. Not sure what Starlink has in mind. 5G is cellphone, and they'll still charge by the gigabyte of usage. Pretty easy to burn through a gigabyte these days... |

Sure, you can use online wallets, but you can also use offline wallets, and even wallets that are built to be wallets that you can carry in your pocket. No internet needed. You can buy one of these from Amazon for about $100. If you travel with Bitcoin, it's a great way to do it. HarveyH55 wrote: Bits don't age. The IP protocol was developed quite a few decades ago. It is a wrapper protocol. It can run on anything else for a network. You might say is a 'meta' network. It is literally a network of networks, hence the name 'inter-net'. IP stands for Internet Protocol. On top of this, are typically one of three protocols, known as TCP, UDP, and ICMP. TCP, or Terminal Control Protocol provides a sequenced and error detected method of sending data, much as if you were connecting using one of the serial computer terminals. TCP has 'ports' that operate like the channels on a TV. Different services are offered on different channels (or ports). UDP, or User Datagram Protocol, provides a non-sequenced non-checked method of passing data. It is useful for printers to broadcast status, for example, without requiring an actual connection to anyone. ICMP is the Internet Control Message Protocol, used to coordinate the Internet and it's routers. One popular port on TCP is port 443, which carries web traffic using the https protocol. The protocol you are using right now, in fact, to read this message and to write your posts. The Internet hasn't been static since its creation. It has grown and expanded over the years when it only provided email (port 25) and a few other limited services. Today, we have the cloud (a set of many services for public use and for programming custom web applications), the most extensive of which is Amazon Web Services, or AWS. This vast set of services now can store and process data with a wide range of techniques. It is the cloud that made the Alexa service possible. Blockchain currencies. are rather new to the game. They are not particularly old protocols. The technique is fairly simple. You have a so-called 'block chain', or set of transactions. It can be coins, logging transactions, telemetry, anything. This chain is encrypted following a given set of rules, which are published. The encryption algorithm is intentionally based on a randU, so that it is possible to calculate a new entry for the blockchain (such a new Coin). All that has to be done is to find a number that fits the criteria of that particular blockchain, and voila! you have a new Coin. These numbers are difficult to find. The calculation is not a difficult one, but it must be done millions of times. This is why Bitcoin miners use video cards, custom programming the GPUs in them to perform these calculations. A GPU is the perfect processor model for such a requirement, since processing video has the same kind of requirements. A CPU can be very 'smart', capable of handing lots of instructions, but an only run a relatively few threads. A GPU is much 'dumber', handling only a few instructions, geared to simple math, but you can have 100's of threads. HarveyH55 wrote: The 5G pushed by Verizon isn't quite 5G. It's kind of a 4.5G. It is faster, but it isn't actual 5G protocol. It IS widespread over their network though. Internet can run over 4G and 5G. Your phone is an internet device, carrying voice and data using bits and packets. Voice Over Internet Protocol, or VOIP, runs on port 5060. Some cellular companies use different port numbers. In other words, everything about your cell phone is internet based, including any voice transmissions on phone calls you make. HarveyH55 wrote: Satellite systems such as these are also internet. Yup it runs over these just as well as any other network such as Ethernet. You can even run internet over carrier pigeon (yes...real pigeons!). That network protocol even handles packet loss due to hawks. It even works with smoke signals too. Such networks are too slow to be practical to build a computer interface for to view web traffic on, but theoretically it's possible. BTW, these two networks were issued as April Fools day RFC's, the funny thing about them is that they would actually work, if you build an interface to a computer for them! Internet is a network of networks. The local network can be a radio signal to a satellite, a cellular signal, or indeed any radio signal. It also runs on Ethernet (your typical home network) or a WIFI short haul radio signal (another typical home network). It can run over a speaker wire. The simple wiring in your automobile (the CAN bus can pass internet traffic as well), fiber optics (which have an incredibly high bandwidth and speed capability), or any other network system you can name. HarveyH55 wrote: The Internet is not about a capacity. It is a protocol. It can run at any capacity. HarveyH55 wrote: In TCP, the limiting factors are the server, the client, and the network speeds in between. Internet itself has no speed limit. It's just a protocol. Thanks to things like Amazon developing cloud computing, the 'server' isn't just one machine anymore, but hundreds of them working in parallel. By dividing up the task in this way, you can get amazing performance on a server and still handle the literally thousands of connections at a time. This is what Amazon does as a normal routine everyday. In other words, it's scalable. HarveyH55 wrote: Network providers all charge to provide you their network. It costs money to put up those wires, telephone polls, radio systems, satellites, cell towers, or whatever. It costs money to maintain them. Internet has no cost in and of itself. It's just a protocol. What you are paying for is getting the bits to you, the user. Internet runs on anything for a network. It is a network of networks.

Into the Night wrote:You have NO argument. Correct. I have only math, which is all that is needed to falsify your stupid affirmative argument. Into the Night wrote:Your whole argument depends on ... Nope, you were correct above. I'm not the one with an affirmative argument. You are, unless you are now retracting your argument. Your stupid argument is "Money is not wealth." Math destroys your argument leaving you without rebuttal. I don't have any role in that particular lunacy. |

Let's take a look at Safemoon for a moment, shall we? Price One Month Ago, on 5/8/2021, three days before Xadoman began talking about Safemoon: Open: $0.00000857 High: $0.00000944 Low: $0.00000843 Close: $0.00000889 Price on 6/1/2021, after a steady decline ... once the directors had reclaimed over one-third of the tokens ... that aren't even backed by their own block-chain ... the day Xadoman made his last pitch for everyone to join him in buying Safemoon, saying "Safemoon is also audited by CERTIK. It is clean as a whistle." Open: $0.00000393 High: $0.00000464 Low: $0.00000356 Close: $0.00000408 ... and continuing its downward spiral ... Price Today: 6/7/2021 Open: $0.00000353 High: $0.00000371 Low: $0.00000353 Close: $0.00000370 ... oh yeah, get this baby while it's hotter than a beluga whale! Xadoman, by any chance did you cut your losses and get out? You're not still holding your Safemoon tokens, are you? Edited on 08-06-2021 05:01 |

Xadoman, by any chance did you cut your losses and get out? You're not still holding your Safemoon tokens, are you? Just zoom out the graph. Also, I am not going to sell any of my coins for a piddle profit. The fear of selling a possible moonshot for a piddle profit is too much for me to endure. I have planted the seed and now the only thing I need to do is to wait. As already said, I do not expect a Lambo in two weeks, although those kind of things are possible in crypto world. |

You'll get a laugh out of this headline that I just stumbled across: SafeMoon Price Prediction: Will It Reach $1 In 2025? Ummmm, let's try to make it through JUNE 2021 before we start thinking about 2025, eh? |

I will take this as a "no", that you did not cut your losses in SafeMoon... I zoomed out the graph. SafeMoon has been on a consistent downward trend over the last month (down over 60% from where it was a month ago). I "wonder" why that is... |

It starts off by explaining what SafeMoon is and tries to pass off the insanely high 10% transaction fee as "encourag[ing] long-term investment rather than day trading bets" and as "ensur[ing] the stability of SafeMoon's price". Then it goes on to talk about how SafeMoon's price has been rising (the author who published this article yesterday apparently hasn't taken a look at how its price has dropped like a rock over the last month) and it brags up SafeMoon some more... FINALLY, it starts discussing the topic of the article. It mentions that WalletInvestor thinks that SafeMoon's price will increase by 780% in a year from now and 3800% in five years (up to $0.00016). However, Digital Coin Price thinks that it will only increase 46% by the end of this year and only increase by 250% in five years ($0.000014). The article itself claims that SafeMoon could reach $1 in 2021 if it maintains some insanely high level of growth (apparently ignoring it's complete collapse over the last month). It then claims that, if the growth rate is only 100% per month, then it'll take a couple more years to reach $1, so maybe Xadoman will be a millionaire by 2023...?? The article ends by saying how great of an investment SafeMoon is (even though it has "pulled back 70%" from its peak of $0.00001399 in April, "which opens a bargain entry point" (this makes Xadoman all giddy inside!!). |

It takes incredible faith to hold onto a speculative thing like crypto coins for a long term (decade(s)). Some times it pays off. But I don't think most have that kind of faith. Bitcoin really had very few days where it's price spiked up big in its +10 year history. Most of the time it is just moving sideways and hodlers must patiently wait. Edited on 08-06-2021 19:02 |

Xadoman, how's Safemoon faring these days? Is it down 7.47% over this last week? Have you dumped your Safemoon holdings yet? Let's talk about Safemoon for a moment, shall we? I hear that the Safemoon directors have reclaimed 41.6% of the total supply of tokens. That's 416 trillion tokens reclaimed by the directors and converted to some other cryptocurrency that is expected to retain its value. That's right, the directors are doing this. The implication is that Safemoon is not expected to retain its value ... almost as if it's by design. I'll let you in on a little secret ... which happens to be the same secret that I have already explained but will now put into your context of expected wealth. The current predictions of when you should expect to become a millionaire by purchasing $100 of Safemoon is 21 years ... all under the assumption that Safemoon will be heavily used as a currency. Unfortunately, the ongoing drop in Safemoon price is indicative of the total lack of desire anyone has in using Safemoon as a currency. All people who buy Safemoon are speculators who will hold it, not people engaging in commerce who will use it as a currency. Safemoon cannot increase in value beyond minor erratic fluctuations. As a currency, Safemoon's value is on the tracks to only one destination: Worthlessness. The Safemoon directors seem to know this. The Safemoon directors are specifically not buying Safemoon. What does all this tell you? . Attached image: |

Xadoman, how's Safemoon faring these days? Is it down 7.47% over this last week? Have you dumped your Safemoon holdings yet? I am feeling pretty comfy. It is the most viewed and fastest growing crypto in the world and it is only a couple of months old. It will( and already has) set records that have never seen before in the crypto world. As a currency, Safemoon's value is on the tracks to only one destination: Worthlessness. The Safemoon directors seem to know this. The Safemoon directors are specifically not buying Safemoon. You got it wrong. It is a deflationary crytocurrency by design. Its value is destined to go up. What does all this tell you? It is a great time to accumulate. I will sell my two project cars to get more money to invest. Edited on 10-06-2021 10:36 |
