Great job once again to the team!
Especially myself for watching them work, and not offering to help! :D


* - Ravioli - Jun 13, 2017

Well anytime I travel to Japan I'll be buying my hotel with BTC apparently. 🤝

Also, that's insane about Nevada.

Good as always, thanks.

Great work Lookin.

I'm looking forward to working on the upcoming ones.


* - SIM-403479 - Jun 13, 2017

Nice work Lookin.

I look forward to the group.

I thought the MyFreeWallet thing was settled? They were moving it into cold storage IIRC.
Not that I personally trust online wallets, though.


* - SIM-2696289 - Jun 13, 2017

Nice work, very helpful information. Keep it up!


* - Xeenon - Jun 13, 2017

Crypto News will continue in the name of Consensus, hopefully by next week. All the graphical work is being done, so hopefully it will be ready by edition 5.

Good work as usual and nice layout.

A suggestion for something new would be possibly showcasing a member who has had the most returns for the week. Not sure how it could be done other than by users reporting it since it would be a pain in the ass to keep track of.

What would you say is gonna moon this week?

I wanted to do that as well, but then I thought about it. I feel like it could cause a lot of drama in the community – we wouldn't want to promote someone who is a fraud, someone who lied, or someone who is looking to pump a coin. If we showcase a specific member, then some people might follow his footsteps and do whatever said member is doing. He could false-promote a coin and attempt at pumping it, and considering the fact that people remember him being showcased on here, they might follow him and help him pump the coin.

It's a great idea, sadly it is going to be difficult to execute it properly.

I didn't think about that. You're right it won't be a good idea because of that. I have an idea that I might run with that could be included in the news. I'll think about it more. Have a 2 hour drive right now to think.

Thank you man, keep going!


* - VirtualMon3y - Jun 13, 2017

Thanks for this guys, much appreciated.

Can I suggest one thing? Your thread header/title isn't aligned with the rest of the thread under it... OCD can't handle it! Hahaha

Other than that nice to see such quality contribution and commitment.. Thanks again.
