I spoke to a cashier in my bank in the past couple of weeks and got the impression that they are likely to block crypto -currency transactions.

Anyway
Just watched the tutorial
Does anyone know how to set up a company to collect the "Gas Fees" as that is the only part of crypto-currencies that I will ever get involved in?

Be mindful that anyone interacting with your Metamask can see your NFTs and your transaction history, so even if you use it pseudonymously, people will see your dancing naked lady cards. That's not appropriate for my wallet, but yours may be different. Also keep in mind the tax consequences, with the exchange of ETH for DOLZ tokens and DOLZ tokens for NFTs being taxable capital gains transactions, as well as any subsequent sale. Record your cost basis, or you may regret it later.

Separately, the third largest crypto exchange (FTX) collapsed just yesterday and price action has been *****. The space is probably going to remain volatile, so I'd seek to limit the amount of time I held ETH and DOLZ, and buy the NFT as quickly as possible to avoid unwanted exposure to price fluctuations.

Caveat emptor. Stay safe in these crazy financial times.

Gas fees are paid to to run the computations required on the network. When the network was Proof of Work ("PoW"), the fees were paid to ETH miners with large computer arrays that secured the blockchain. They switched from Proof of Work to Proof of Stake ("PoS"), so any ETH holder can "stake" their ETH and validate the blockchain. It requires >32 ETH and a lot of technical know-how.

https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2019/10/25/3-ways-staking-will-upend-the-economics-of-ethereum/

Most people wishing to participate in the success of the network simply stake the ETH they have in a "pool" of other people to earn yield as the network grows. None of the above is financial advice. The markets are extremely competitive and the shift from PoW to PoS has locked up a lot of coins yet to be released, which could create price pressure, and the pools themselves are potentially vulnerable to hacking and theft. Though several reputable institutions offer it as a service.

As noted above, today many crypto currencies crashed, and one big exchange is in meltdown. I'm not sure why these NFTs are being offered this way...but for me it's a pass.

@ComteDracula made many good points. And the only similar comparison between USD etc. and crypto/NFT is that they're all "fiat" currencies. The bottom line is that NFT's are way too volatile to consider (unless you're wealthy). So this will be a hard pass, for a lot of people here. Even though those cards do look amazing!!
But, you do you @Totem ! Your main product is more than enough for me! ✌💜😎

I get this is an attempt to keep up with the times and not get left behind like Blackberry and Blockbuster.... but this is doomed to fail because of 2 reasons: the timing could not be worse (new lows incoming with impending FTX contagion and the war ***** for regulation of these "securities") and NFT hype is over and will never be at the same levels again. Porn has been trying to get into the NFT game but missed the boat and likely these NFT projects will die with the rest of the 98-99% when the bear market is complete and final capitulation. Worse still is those who buy these NFT cards and have no idea current state of affairs will be in for a real shock if and when crypto is declared a security and regulation is enforced. All assests (which NFTs are considered a part of) purchased with crypto (including ETH and USDT) will be subject to capital gains tax (already we are suppose to declare but no way to enforce currently) and the government and anyone able to read blockchain will know your viewing habits. LOL!!! Still it will be a fun thing to reminiscence about like some of the other features that have come and gone. NFA!

If there was'nt this NFT system we would have had them on "classic" sale...

This is wishful thinking.

Without the SECs and NFT cards there would still be just seven cards released per week by the "classic" route. The NFTs and SECs represent the production of extra cards over and above those that would otherwise have been produced. The only difference would be which cards were released. - so while we may have seen the current SECs and NFT cards released as normal cards there are other cards that we would not have seen because they were never produced.

If Totem were now to change their minds and decide release the SEC and NFT cards as normal cards then almost certainly these cards would simply join the queue of cards destined for release some time in the future. Until they had all been released this would result in Totem being able to temporalily reduce the rate at which they needed to produce cards. It would not increase the number of "normal" cards available to us at all.

And the only similar comparison between USD etc. and crypto/NFT is that they're all "fiat" currencies.

I think you will find that crypto currencies are, or were intended to be, much the opposite of fiat currencies - though there are exceptions.

A fiat currency is one that is not backed by some commodity. A unit of crypto currency is supposed to represent the work required in creating it in the first place.

A fiat currency is also one for which its value is suppoosed to assigned by a central organisation (by fiat). The classic crypto currency (Bitcoin) was supposed to have no such central authority (though some others do have such an authority).

A web search for "fiat currency vs cryptocurrency" should enlighten you as to the difference.

It is possible for a crypto currency to be a fiat currency - e.g. the proposals for government backed crypto-currencies - but for the most part they are not.

Well, there are some nice costumes in there (I have a feeling like a lot of the good costumes went to DOlz to spruce up the offer, while we are left with a lot of lingerie shows - though we also do get nice cosplay recently).

That said, I unfortunately won't be using this vehicle.

I wonder what the price for a show will be in Dolz, and whether we will be able to earn those minitokens (something that was mentioned before but is not mentioned in this release) and what we would be able to use them for.

EDIT: I've watched the video and while I appreciate the tutorial, boy is that process complicated. Multiple conversions of currencies, having to submit my real life ID documents (NO THANKS) and them being linked to my porn purchases. No thanks.

A minimum buy in of 250 USD also tells me this is definitely NOT something I want to spend money on.

Dolz and NFT changes nothing for iStripper.

Not completely true, because there will be cards available only for NFTs.
If there was'nt this NFT system we would have had them on iStripper and also @Celine did not rule out that in the future some models may be exclusive to DOLZ.

A member can freely chose to partecipate or not: at this point I just have to hope that many will choose not to participate.... 😈

Avant que certaines danseuses soient exclusivement tockenisées, une certaine quantité d'eau aura coulé sous les bridges. Et iStripper sera très certainement plus prudent sur la transition que Meta.

At this point, any one with half a brain should understand that getting involved with NFT's is a bad idea. The market is dying, the hype is over. Steam has blocked all NFT games and people have lost thousands if not millions of dollars on NFT's because it's all based on peoples willingness to buy them, and people aren't buying them anymore.

I predict that only a few "whales" will buy into this Dolz thing, and Totem will lose a lot of money on this. Eventually they will try to get some of their spent money back by releasing them as normal shows here on the platform. If they don't, they will simply lose all the money they have spent on this.

Je constate que personne n'a pris en compte la terrible consomation d'énergie nécessaire au fonctionnement des blokchains sur lesquels se basent les cryptomonnaies, actuellement il est beaucoup question de réchauffement climatique et la consomation dévorante de ces blockchains n'est certainement pas propice au climat.

Toutes ces cryptomonnaires ont des valeurs très volatiles et toute personne qui investit dans ces monnaies doit être consciente qu'en cas de "crash" elle n'aura que ses yeux pour pleurer.

I note that no one has taken into account the terrible energy consumption necessary for the operation of the blockchains on which cryptocurrencies are based, currently there is a lot of talk about global warming and the devouring consumption of these blockchains is certainly not conducive to the climate.

All these cryptocurrencies have very volatile values and anyone who invests in these currencies should be aware that in the event of a "crash" they will only have their eyes to *****.

L'aspect blockchain va beaucoup plus loin que les cryptos puisqu'il est aussi question de tokenisation d'actes juridiques, fonciers, administratifs, etc. En fait partout où l'on souhaite de l'authentification distribuée.

Pour la consommation énergétique, je pense que cela va se résoudre avec une génération de processeurs dédiés au minage. Actuellement on se sert de GPU Nvidia au travers de fermes de calcul mais tout ceci n'est pas optimisé.

Ce n'est donc qu'une question de temps et de moyens financiers.

Et puis le problème des cryptos c'est qu'elles ne sont pas régulées et ont peu de crédit de confiance. C'est du placement à risque à la manière des produits financiers indexés au marché Forex.

J'en ai parlé plus haut concernant les impacts sur l'environnement. J'ai aussi parlé préceédemment de ce problème dans d'autres messages, mais c'est bien de le rappeler @Voyeurpervers. Surtout avec le COP20 actuel, et les changements climatiques.

Je trouve irresponsable cette dépense d'énergie inutile, juste pour pour les blockchains. Il faut vraiment être à côté de la "track" comme on dt ici.

J'ai même cru comprendre qu'ici au Québec, il va y avoir des mouvements à ce sujet, afin de rallouer de l'énergie à d'autres sources plus utiles.

I mentioned it above regarding the environmental impacts. I've also talked about this issue in other posts before, but it's good to be reminded of it @Pervers. Especially with the current COP20, and climate change.

I find it irresponsible to spend unnecessary energy just for blockchains. You really have to be off the "track" as we say here.

I even understand that here in Quebec, there will be movements on this subject, in order to reallocate energy to other more useful sources.

Il y a même eu des vols d'électricité par des mineurs de crypto-monnaies.

There has even been electricity theft by cryptocurrency miners.

J'ai pas lu ça dans Germinal, êtes-vous bien certain de cette assertion?😊

@sexy3DBoy Voir le lien de la presse en fin de message.

Germinal, c'est quoi ça ?

Faites-vous allusion au roman. Une blague en lien à des mineurs j'imagine ?

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germinal_(roman)

Ce genre de blague provoque chez moi une "mine" basse. 😊

En parlant de mine et de mine basse.

Désolé pour le hors sujet. C'est la faute de @Sexy3DBoy.

A minimum buy in of 250 USD also tells me this is definitely NOT something I want to spend money on.

The Minimum buy in is only for the discounted Pre-Sale
Once the pre-sale is over, you can buy the Dolz at their regular price with no minimum buy in.
But then, you don't get the discounted price.

Désolé pour le hors sujet. C'est la faute de @Sexy3DBoy.

Effectivement il serait bon de se recentrer et je me joins à vous pour souhaiter une bonne réussite à iStripper pour ses Dolz tokens et ses NTF Girls.

Moi je souhaite surtout bonne chance aux clients qui vont s'aventurer dnas ce projet, de ne pas perdre trop d'argent. Car pour plusieurs, c'est ce qui les attend.

it would be good to refocus and I join you in wishing iStripper success for its Dolz tokens and NTF Girls

I would like to wish good luck to the customers who will venture into this project, not to lose too much money. Because for many, this is what awaits them.

@ComteDracula

je comprends pas ce que vous dites, ca sera pas pire que d'acheter les cartes ici?

les cartes Dolz a part le faites qu'on puisse les revendre ca changera rien pour ce point si? a moins que les cartes soient limité a un certain nombre d'exemplaire? et que du coup leurs valeurs vont augmenté si il y en a plus... Et dans ce cas ca sera vraiment abusé.

bref je trouve encore le projet flou...

À ce que je comprend, il est certains que les cartes vont être limités, pour créer un effet de rareté.

Sans être un spécialiste, j'imagine que si les gens achète pour x coût les Dolz pour aquérir les cartes NFT, et que les supposé Dolz perdent de la valeur entre temps, du fait que les cryptomonnaies sont volatiles, cela ne sera pas très payant de les revendre à quelqu'un d'autre. Il va y avoir perte d'argent en cas de transaction ou les gens vont devoir attendre que la valeur des Dolz remonte pour les vendre et entrer dans leur argent.

En plus comment savoir la valeur de chaque cartes ?

J'imagine que certaines vont être recherchées plus que d'autres. Cela va coûter encore plus chère pour acqurir ces cartes plus recherchés et rares.

De plus il y a des frais de transactions et des déclarations à l'impôt, d'après ce que j'ai cru comprendre associés à cela.

Trop compliqué selon moi, pour pas grand chose au final.

Je laisse cela aux plus jeunes.


From what I understand, it is certain that the cards will be limited, to create a scarcity effect.

Without being a specialist, I imagine that if people buy for x cost the Dolz to acquire the NFT cards, and that the supposed Dolz lose value in the meantime, due to the fact that crypto currencies are volatile, it will not be very profitable to resell them to someone else. There will be a loss of money in case of a transaction or people will have to wait for the value of the Dolz to rise again to sell them and get their money back.

Plus how do you know what each card is worth?

I imagine that some will be sought after more than others. It will cost even more to acquire these more sought after and rare cards.

Plus there are transaction fees and tax returns, from what I understand associated with this.

Too much hassle in my opinion, for not much in the end.

I leave that to the younger ones.

I hope totem havent put too much money into this. The crypto world has already decided that NFT's are bad. The massive crash in NFT value scared most people away. The limited audience of istripper/vrp has little chance of generating substantial revenue now.

Money would have been better spent developing a card game like magic the gathering with the existing girls cards. At least that would draw in new customers (card game fans), and has the possibility of making low sale cards a higher value (ooh, that card i dont like has "add a +1/+1 squirel token per turn". arrrg squirel deck, if you know you know)

Good luck to totem.
I will watch from the outside.

Its a pass for me because i dont even know what NFT cards are... i know i asked one time and i dont even remember what they told me.... I dont even know where you can see these cards.... I understand SEC and have all of them but one.... but i have no idea what NFTs are so i wont miss them, i wont be doing this and i will never do crypto currency unless ***** to do so... and i dont see that being possible in my lifetime anyway.....

Ok... Next...
