...However, this is not the case with cryptocurrency because scammers are everywhere and the only thing every crypto enthusiast must have in common is good knowledge of how to play safe and never be a victim of scams in any form.

You are right. Good knowledge of how to browse the internet is essential for anyone who is into crypto. Scammers are lurking everywhere waiting for a little slip up to steal your funds or your privacy.
Always stay vigilant and view anything as a scam.

Knowledge of how to browse the internet is not what is needed because browsing the internet is something easy. What is needed is how to safely use the internet and also avoid human mistake.

Hey mate, I think I will disagree with you there. Browsing through the internet is not easy at all. You have to be very careful because there are a lot of scammers on the internet.

You are somehow right no matter how bad the damage the cause to the market there's always something good it will lead to when the people see the truth about the fud they caused.

I think their understanding of the damage would help make good market strategies and produce more profit. Not many people understand the market cap and how it works.

Not everyone. There would always be those who were quick enough to make a purchase in anticipation of the spike in the peice after the news announcement and sold off as the price was rising.

For there to be people that made a loss while investing there has to be those that dumped on them who made a profit


Yeah,  some folks have the mentality of selling off immediately there is hype or an increase in the price of a commodity. This can be a good thing to some extent but can also be bad. I usually tell people if you withdraw your Bitcoin when it was 50 or 100 dollars you still made a profit and should not be mad at yourself for not leaving it to get to 50k dollars.

When we say many people dont know the different between close source and scam project this is only applicable to the newbies who enter the market just to make profit. However, regulation is not the solution.

What do you think is the problem? Mind you I didn't say it was the problem but it is the solution for a safer cryptic urgency environment. Teaching users how to detect scam projects would be also beneficial.

The NFT market place isn’t a flourish sector as it once was so I would not also pay so much attention on it, Let’s all relax and watch how Utopia p2p keeps dropping more Utilities.

While the NFT market is not in the hype season at this time, a real product with real utility would be able to flourish and get the attention of the public.

It would be a gamble for the Utopia team and it might be better to wait for a more conducive time to launch such a project, but I am sure it would be successful tither ways.

I think the reason why the NFT market is not getting much hype is because of some naive project owner that manipulate the market and as you said it will be a gamble for Utopia to take the step now.


I will strongly disagree with that statement. Possibly you're judging from your geographical location. Here in the UK, NFT is one of the top most profitable online businesses currently.

Yes mate anything that is hosted on Utopiap2p definitely would have such utilities for it's enjoyment that's why it's a smart decision to actually do so .

The smart decision aspect of host a website on the UtopiaP2P network is that the website will be a means to avoid restriction, sanction, manipulation by the government and the website will be eternal.

One of the advantages of hosting a website on Utopia is that the website will be available within Utopia, gaining access to millions of like-minded Utopia users while keeping the real hosting location hidden, preserving their secrecy.


What kind of website do they host? Hosting a website is a bit more technical than what utopia is preventing it to be. So does utopia also own the domain of your website?

Yeah,  local boards are inevitable,  they will surely come. It is just that it will take some time but it will definitely come. Probably be before the year runs out.

Don't get the user wrong. He may not have a deep understanding of the CryptonBet channel but I think such complain he made will make the owner do some important upgrades and I am sure the owner of the channel will think of creating a website with the name CryptonBet since he has bought a uNS for it.

Creating and running a betting website is a commitment that anyone getting into has to be fully ready for. Creating a channel and purchasing a uNS are just scratching the surface of what it entails.

I would advice anyone considering that to consider all loose ends and tighten them before making such commitments.

Good points, I agree with you. Do you mind listing out those loose ends that needs tightening up? I'm sure many do not know or understand what you mean by that.

To activate a uVoucher click uWallet "Diamond logo" at the menu bar. Select "uVoucher". Click the "create new uVoucher box and enter the value of the CRP coin you want the uVoucher to contain and create the uVoucher.

Good explanation but in case we may be some people who are newbies in the forum I will attach an image that explained the process of creating a uVoucher. I could remember the hell I went through when I want to create my first uVoucher.

That's impossible mate. Can't you see his recent matches? The man has declined in so many ways in football.  He needs to rest and take care of his family.  The highest I can see him stay is the next ten years which he is most likely not playing in the next world cup.

Therefore, I don't see any reason why they will choose not to add more pairs on the Crypton Exchange if there's no tangible reason.

All I can say is that the developer team understands what we want and if they didn't understand they won't have created a topic on this forum dedicated to the community voting for the next pairs they will add to the Crypton Exchange but if they are not adding it now then there must be a good reason for it.

I believe no sensible person will read what you guys said here and won't agree with you. However, we still have a lot of people that won't understand this or read what you just said.
In the meantime, I have a strong feeling that they will add more pairs before the end of this year.

I agree with you mate. It seems so. It does seems like temporary something they will solve in no time. We all just have to be patient with them.

Not only that mate if we organize it ourselves then the transparency of the competition can’t be assured, also I don’t think it would go down well with the team that we are organizing such programs ourselves.

About transparency, if there is any reputable member willing to act as an escrow it can make the process safer and transparent, I am not sure there is such a person other users can trust their funds with.

I personally do not think the team would mind at all. It brings publicity to the forum and sparks off a new trend of discussion. A win win if you ask me.

I personally will say that is expecting too much from one person. Giving such an amount to someone to hold is not a really good idea. I think it's best the developers do it themselves.

What I am trying to say is that some projects may claim to be open source and at the end of the day you realized that they are hiding something which makes it a scam.

Trust Wallet is an example of what you said here. They claimed to be open source but their source code is not available for the public to review and that's the reason you'll never see long-term and genuine cryptocurrency enthusiasts that trust the wallet.

Such platforms should be shutdown.  I have actually imagined cryptocurrency having such a body where they regulate and dictate misleading projects and shut them down.

You have a very good point and i think people should understand that too, people are not asking things of the developers because they have not done well or because the project is not good, but because there is so much enthusiasm about what the project has already achieved and users cannot wait for more to experience.

You got the point and when people have huge enthusiasm for something they intent to want more from it. However, the enthusiasts of the UtopiaP2P project need to play cool with their requests from the developers.

I believe the developers should be able to deliver that. That is one if the reason they are out there. Thar includes serving humanity and getting paid for it in return.

An enormous number of altcoins may be the reason why Crypton was not noticed but that's not the actual reason. The reason is that most cryptocurrency investors are always after profit, and hype and only a few consider using privacy coins.

Well said, a lot of cryptocurrency enthusiasts focus only on the hype-based projects and projects mentioned by people like Elon Musk, etc. This is the reason why Doge experience an uptrend when Elon Musk added its logo to Twitter but go a downtrend when whales dump $151 million worth of the coin.
The same thing happened when we see people who are victims of the scam DeFi but the change is coming soon.

Technically those that invested in Dogecoin when Elon Musk hype it through Twitter are at loss. There's no one to blame but their naivety about cryptocurrency investment.
Meanwhile, I am happy to have vast knowledge about crypto, or else I will also be among those chasing the wrong investments when I can get everything I ever wanted through CRP coin.


Would you really use the word "naivety"? These individuals invested in dogecoin because the richest man in the world endorsed it. People put aside their disbelief for years about cryptocurrency and want to do something for themselves, and those scammers saw it as away to cash out then portraying cryptocurrency as a scam package.

We are seeing how Erling Haaland is breaking every goal scoring record available now. I think the future is bright you can also see player like Victor osimehn and others.

Yeah,  the future is indeed very bright. Many young stars are ready to show us their potential. You forgot to mention mbape, the dude is brilliant.

You are very correct, but i think maybe there is a real and genuine reason why Utopia cannot add extra trading pairs for now, but since we are not working closely with the team we do not know, i believe in the future there will be more volume in the exchange, but for now people have to use it for the other wonderful features it offers.

If you think you can pool funds together for it, it would also not work because you cannot trust whoever is going to hold the funds for the winner, that’s why we should wait for the admin.

That's a good point. I agre with you. No project can work here properly without the authorization of the administrators of this forum. They need to be aware and also show us their support.

Okay,  thanks for fit highlighting that out. I will also like to know how to cross check or verify if a unit or platform is an open or closed source. Is it something for the computer nerds or fit everyone?

There are two methods for testing or verifying open-source code. The first method is to compare checksums, while the second, more robust method is to use PGP.
In other words. The process is detecting variations between a smart contract's source code and the compiled bytecode utilized during contract generation.

What are checksums and bytecode? Are these visible to everybody?
Also, what is PGP? Those variations are supposed to be regular to confirm it is an open source?
