what I heard was also like that, there was talk that Tesla would allow doge as a means of payment and also X, but I don't know whether this has an impact or not, because I see the movement of doge is still like this. I prefer doge to be a hold coin, but not in large amounts

What you say about Tesla accepting Doge was in 2022, but it is not that Tesla accepts Doge to buy the brand's cars, but for merchandising. At that time, many news appeared and the market evidently noticed it, but the joy was short-lived when people understood that it was not for buying cars. I guess they can't sell Tesla cars with Doge as a payment method due to current legislation in the United States.

More information is available here: Tesla launches Dogecoin payments for merch, but there’s a catch.

I agree, it’s a kind of dualism. In fairness, it should be noted that investments are also being made in truly technological projects; it’s just that if they grow in price, it’s not like the same memcoins do, and there is a certain paradox for me in this. I think you yourself understand perfectly well that There are powerful and necessary projects in technological terms, but they are not even close in capitalization to the same notorious memcoins.

What you say is one of the biggest problems (I always speak from my point of view) of the cryptocurrency industry. That there are few truly innovative projects but they barely have the capitalization and investment of some memecoin that has just appeared on the market. That's why I try to avoid new "projects" added on CoinGecko and CoinmarketCap, because there are really very few projects that are launched in months and dozens of memecoins daily with many millions of investment. Unfortunately, for many people, quick money takes priority over innovation in the industry, and it's something I can understand, to a certain extent.

Is it possible to associate karma with increasing rank?. That the minimum karma to rank up is at least 0 or more?.

And see admin's response...

The administrator's response is precisely what I expected, but a little earlier  In any case, I suppose that at the time I made the proposal maybe the problem was more focused on spam than other things, but fortunately in the next update we will see something that will help the forum more. Now that some signature campaigns will require a certain amount of karma, it is the best time to implement it.

Reading the posts from the linked topic, it seems to me that the forum has some prerequisites that must be met in order for the activity to continue after it is frozen. It is obvious that a member cannot continue to progress when it comes to activity points if he does not meet some other conditions, which is good in a way because it requires a lot more time and effort.

Maybe it's a little strange that we don't know the exact formula, but still the next rank that someone can reach after Legendary is Mythical, so it is logical that the progress towards that rank will be somewhat mystical

The exact formula is to reach a certain number of activity, in this case 2,000, and the time that the user has been connected to the forum. This formula is different for each range, and the waiting time until the activity is counted again depends a lot on each user. I seem to remember (I'll try to find the post) that my activity counter also stopped when it hit 2,000, but it only stopped for 48 hours or even less if I remember correctly.

As you say (I hope many people read this thread to understand it better) the important thing is to be active and participate in the forum, this way the activity will continue to increase and almost without realizing it our account will rise in rank without long waiting times. Spending time thinking that our activity is not counted will only distract us from the main objective, be active in the forum.

I don't think certain activity is required to rank up in Altcoinstalk. As far as I know, the only requirement for ranking up is the number of posts. I checked the thread about Everything about Ranks and Ranking, there wasn't any mention about activity. I am not aware of recent changes, so please let me know if I'm wrong anywhere.

A user's activity is not just a certain number of posts. A user's activity is made up of several factors, such as the number of posts and the online time the user has spent on the forum, you can see, for example, your statistics at this link. On top of that, the admin is working on an update, where users will have to have at least 0 karma (that was the original idea, but there may be changes) so that the account rank can increase. When that karma update is released, there will be 3 factors that will decide rank increase and how long an account activity will be frozen for a given period of time.

More information about the karma update: Karma 0 = your rank will go up.

You're absolutely correct
It's just like going to the fruit field and gathering several varieties of unripe fruits into one basket without actual checking or knowing which ones has the potential to become ripe overtime and which ones would get rotten before it even becomes ripe.
Picking all the fruits doesn't mean all would get ripe and be useful to you, the hopes of knowing that at the end of the day, at least one fruit or maybe two would get ripe and can be eaten would be enough reason to inspire you to pick as much fruits as you can.

That's also applies to bounty hunters, they do all those bounties even when they know that not all the projects would be successful, but if they're able to get at least one or two successful projects, it'll be enough to cover for the stress they went through to perform those bounty tasks

I totally agree with you. It's something I don't understand, and it's also something I would never do, since the time needed to participate in all those bounties I prefer to use on other things, like looking for new interesting projects, for example. I still hope that some really good project will be released among the 50 memecoins (and scam projects) that appear on the market every day. But as I always say, everyone with their time and effort does what they want.

Unfortunately in my country there are still many who do KYC as they please and they don't care that their identities are bought and sold on the black market. We can find a lot of KYC in several new projects, even at airdrops, sometimes they are also asked to complete KYC to get results from the tasks they are carrying out. we've done it.

There are many projects, scams and other projects that are born abandoned with a single purpose, to obtain all the private data of all possible people. In addition to all the cryptocurrency these "teams" can get by selling coins/tokens, users' private data will not only be sold on DarkNet, but will also be used for other scams, phishing, and many other criminal acts.

There are many users of airdrops, ICOs and similar, who have been involved in serious problems since scammers have used their private data to commit crimes. That's why I try to maintain my privacy as much as possible. I wouldn't want to be involved in someone else's crime, which could cause me a lot of trouble until the truth comes out.

And where in all of this does the word “technology” or “manufacturability” appear?The fact that it is among the top popular ones, we already know, is it deserved from a technology point of view?We all know that the synonym for the word investor is money. This is what we should start from, no matter how sad it may sound. Or maybe there is a lot of technology in the memcoins that have proliferated?

I think your comments can have several points of view while still being true. It is true that when we talk about an investor, we talk about money. But, it is also true that where the most money is invested is in technology, since it is one of the most lucrative industries. The most ironic thing about all this is that the investor does not have to know anything about technology, since a large part of these investments are based on market studies and private analysis. So, from a general perspective, technology matters, even if it is not always understood in depth.
