    I started out heavily in crypto mid July 2017.

    Posted: 02 Nov 2018 10:47 PM PDT

    I pulled more money than I wish to admit out of my financial equity, and, as you can imagine,have had the most emotional of years. I turned a small fortune into over a million dollars and then back again. I'm still in the green, but FML it's been a ride. I'm optimistic of a bright future, but my wife literally wants to kill me.

    I'm sure some of you have seen this many times over so you're pretty seasoned, and my heart goes out to the blokes who bought in high and still holding.

    Ark Core V2 Year-Long Revamp: 1 Week Until Mainnet V2

    Posted: 02 Nov 2018 09:08 AM PDT

    Investment Thesis:

    Ark is one week away from pushing the V2 devnet to the mainnet. Ark has spent nearly a year re-writing the original code from scratch (they stated absolutely zero copied code). A significant amount of projects in this space copy code from one another, which shows the strength of this development team. This release will bring Ark much closer to releasing their virtual machine, and publishing their push-button blockchain (both expected sometime next year). By the end of the year, Ark will release a new whitepaper, release Ark Core V2, release ArkPay (98% completion), and a redesigned Desktop Wallet (90% completion). Ark has increased the number of employees in this bear market, which is a great sign of the projects long-term viability. With this update, more developers will start working on the Ark blockchain as Core V2's code will significantly decrease the number of errors and make it easier to use. Ark continues to make strides in their partnerships, such as partnering with Major League Hacking (65,000 attendees so far) which will bring more developers to the ecosystem. One of Ark's criticisms has been its lack of marketing. Ark's philosophy has been: Why market an unfinished project? With Core V2 being implemented, the amount of marketing will only increase. Recently, Ark members attended the World Crypto Con and sponsored the final player table. With famous crypto-influencers attending the event such as Charlie Lee, Ark has most definitely stepped up the marketing in recent weeks. Not to mention Ark's love for Nascar and their regular sponsorship of racecars (which was recently published on Fox Business). Let the fireworks begin.

    Price Analysis:

    Since bottoming out at 0.0000928 BTC/ARK, Ark has risen 37.4% since September 12th. The price of Ark fluctuated between 0.00012 BTC/Ark and 0.0001050 BTC/Ark for over a month. On October 17th, Ark broke out from this price range and since then has been continuing to make relatively new highs. Ark also broke above its 100 day MA and has steadily held above this MA. The 20 day MA crossed above the 100 day MA, signaling further bullish sentiment. The 50 day MA is days away from breaking above the 100 day MA: another strong bullish event. The RSI currently sits at ~60. This is above 50 signifying bullish sentiment and is not overbought. The ADX and DI signals the strength of the bull trend is only increasing and is issuing a buy signal. On September 14, 21, 23 and October 9, 10, 16, 17, 24, 30, buying volume increased well above the average volume. This indicates that major market-movers are accumulating and possibly anticipating all of the bullish catalysts. All in all, I see strong bullish sentiment both in its developments as an ecosystem and from its technical price action.

    COSS hack (part 2)

    Posted: 02 Nov 2018 06:19 AM PDT

    The whole story took almost 2 weeks. Hack, sleepless nights, trying to solve a problem, a lot of discussions, distrust of me and many other negative points. All of this resulted in a public call to action. My previous post on Reddit caused a very strong impact among the community. Among the community were haters and those who simply did not believe me and those who actively volunteered to help with finding a solution for funds recovery. There were different options offered on the funds recovery in the Telegram chat . Finally at one moment one of community members text this:

    As I can see that was the very thing that helped to resolve this situation.

    I do not fully understand how exactly this function worked, but thanks to the coordinated actions of the COSS team funds were recovered. Telegram announcement was made the next morning:

    And finally huge thanks to that guy:

    The volume of COSS tokens stolen by the hacker was approximately 10% of the circulating supply. 10% is the same amount that was returned to investors when the hack of the DAO contract happened.

    In this case, no hardfork was required. A specific function was used in the smart contract.

    Of course, the return of funds led to certain rumors:

    Multi decision -> multi signature -> single result and stolen funds were successfully recovered

    I am very grateful to those guys who kept neutrality and especially those who support me in a difficult time. I'm not going to list all of them here in order to preserve their anonymity. But I already had an opportunity to thank them.

    I am also grateful to the exchange's support team and of course CEO of Rune Evensen. It would be impossible to recover the stolen funds without their help. This is the rare case when the exchange managed to return user's funds almost in full.

    I am truly glad that I can share this news with CC community.

    Funds recovered:
    11 500 000 COSS tokens

    19 000 EOS

    Something I need to say.

    Posted: 02 Nov 2018 03:08 PM PDT

    I was watching an old video last night and was thinking about what I always say, why the fuck does media bash bitcoin with this specific line: "it is not regulated and can be used by anyone, even a criminal for illicit use"

    Uhhhh...HELLO!

    How the fuck do criminals pay for shit now? 1. selling their ass for transaction? 2. I.O.U? 3. Other shit forms of payment?

    No. Criminals use the fucking dollar that is provided by the government. They use the dollar for human trafficking. They use the dollar for drugs. They use the dollar for terrorist attacks and many other illicit things.

    So how about mentioning this about the dollar?

    Anything can be used for good or bad, ANYTHING!

    On every bill it states: "this note is legal tender for all debts, public or private" PRIVATE! (Illicit transactions are private)

    So don't bash something that the government doesn't agree with or cant control. Sucks for them but oh well.
