Till, what about Pillar (PLR)? Is it worth purchasing?
Do you have a update on the cripto buy list,,
Yes on several occasions.. They hit you hard.. Advertise low fees but the way they calculate them it works out to be about 15 % premuim..
Populous' service is intn'l peer-to-peer invoice financing for SME. Populous Token (PPT) is the service related utility token. Once the current banking system collapses, many SME will look for solutions in order to maintain their cash-flow.
The last time I looked at the Populous website it looked very basic and I wasn’t sure this was the right website. It didn’t mention tokens or blockchain anywhere!
Has anyone here ever actually used a bitcoin ATM? At first I liked the idea but it’s been years I’ve been in crypto and I have yet to meet anybody that has used one.
Google couldn’t locate site
This was yesterday
Yeah also I tried to sign up for populous invoice platform. The site would not let me register. I notified the populous team and they basically shrugged their shoulders.
Ivan & Randy. This was very helpful information for me today. TY
Something is messed up with Coingecko, the Populous PXT page hasn't updated since someone played with ForkDelta to spoof PXT's price and that was four days ago.
Coingecko falsifies DGB price? 16% DGB chart drop is not reflected in trading pairs. https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/digibyte
