The Electrum Android app has this feature(Description text field):



It's bitcoin only, by the way: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.electrum.electrum

I mean if in one sentence you're talking about how bad the liquidty is for BTC/USD why in gods name would someone use the platform for BTC/ALTCOIN?..... Just saying.

I never said you should. I just pointed out to @coupable that trading BTC/altcoin was possible on Bisq, hence my comment. Just saying.
10103  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [WARNING] PHISHING - Trezor Typosquatting Domain on: February 13, 2020, 04:34:45 AM
Took a look at the scam site just for curiosity sake, and.. yea. Not even surprised in the slightest.



This is a reminder that if you own a decently big business(especially concerning finance) that it would be heavily beneficial to also purchase the typo-domains(at least the close ones like trezoe/trezpr) to protect your users.
10104  Other / Meta / Re: Launch Possible of bitcointalk.org forum mobile application ? on: February 13, 2020, 04:06:09 AM
Typing on mobile is always slower and less convenient than on computers.
I mean, it's definitely faster to type on a PC for sure, but convenience is another thing. You can type on a phone wherever you are. Take note that not every single one of us here sits in front of a computer 12 to 16 hours a day. Tongue

But yea, an app is unnecessary, but we at least need a responsive UI; which is being achieved by Epochtalk.
10105  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Anypay’s CEO Says Bitcoin is Worthless For Payment; Disables BTC Payment on: February 13, 2020, 03:42:10 AM
I really wouldn't be surprised if Roger Ver is an investor or at least somewhat affiliated with this payment processor. Doesn't matter though, as I don't think much people use their product in the first place anyway lol. Not to mention that what professional business would post such a thing on Twitter?
10106  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is the 21M BTC supply promise realistic? on: February 12, 2020, 05:35:24 PM
It's not immutable. Bitcoin is a technology under development.....

Alright. Technically it really isn't 100% impossible to change the supply limit, because it could be done through a hard fork(though it really wouldn't be BTC). But good luck trying to convince people to follow a chain with a higher total supply. Bitcoin being scarce and slowly dis-inflationary are very very important characteristics of bitcoin both as an investment and as a store-of-value.

*I'm not happy either about the rise in price of btc if, it's in any where due to the outbreak of corona virus but, the reason why i started this trade is to know to various reason,season to could affect the price of btc either negatively or postively.

Don't worry. There's no reason to be not happy about, as the argument that bitcoin's price rise is due to the corona virus is just not that convincing. Tongue You don't need to overthink it in the first place, simply because there's really almost no way for us to know for sure what caused the price rise. In the end, we're just making rough guesses.

*snip*

And not to mention the high amounts of false and misleading information. Like jeez, and what's worse, is people actually share them without even at least doing a quick fact check. It's pretty much just a breeding ground for spam now. Unfortunately Facebook is still hot in the PH as it took a bit of time before everyone used it; the US was ahead by a good number of years.
10109  Other / Meta / Re: Launch Possible of bitcointalk.org forum mobile application ? on: February 12, 2020, 10:36:58 AM
Is this the official development version or just a separate (prototype) entity? By the former, I mean that once the migration happens, the forum will move to the database we're testing on.

The forum I linked is a test forum created by someone(on my phone, lazy to check) here on Bitcointalk(that's not Theymos). Once Theymos thinks the new forum software is ready, we're going to move to the new software, whereas the cryptos-currency.com test forum is still going to exist because it's solely created to test stuff.

EpochTalk, which is Bitcointalk's future forum software, is already responsive(everything adjusts depending on screen size) by design so an application is pretty much almost unnecessary. You can help test out the software if you want: https://www.cryptos-currencies.com/boards ; the responsiveness works well on my end.
10111  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can the Outbreak of CORONA Virus lead to Increase ..... on: February 12, 2020, 02:26:05 AM

Lock-down meaning that people in few certain cities aren't allowed to leave the city. Not necessarily that they aren't allowed to leave their homes. And of course people are still able to leave China through planes. It's not the whole country that's locked-down, just a few cities like I said. Calm your ass down.

And yes, I know 2 people; and I barely use social media(besides Reddit).
10112  Other / Meta / Re: BitcoinTalk can become the facebook of money on: February 12, 2020, 02:20:52 AM
Can I make a formal request that we aim to not become the Facebook of anything.

Be careful what you wish for OP. Next thing you know Bitcointalk suddenly also has targetted ads and is also suddenly collecting every single personal data and activity of yours LOL.   /s
10113  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Help: A list of LocalBitcoin alternatives (P2P marketplaces) on: February 12, 2020, 01:14:42 AM
Bisq {a decentralised exchange platform network} is a peer to peer marketplace for trading bitcoin with FIAT. It's a great platform and doesn't require KYC.

Yea sure liquidity is really bad(and is worse for BTC/altcoins) unfortunately, but you can also trade BTC for some altcoins on Bisq. It's seriously underrated.

10114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC, BCH and BSV halving countdown dashboard on: February 11, 2020, 05:01:36 PM
I thought they were identical except for the chain.

Code aside, one of the biggest and one of the most important difference is the decentralization.

BCH is pretty much just Roger Ver and Amaury Séchet(a.k.a. Deadalnix)
BSV is pretty much just Craig "faketoshi" Wright and Jimmy Nguyen
BTC is, well, a lot of people.
10115  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC, BCH and BSV halving countdown dashboard on: February 11, 2020, 04:44:43 PM
No, not really. BCH and BSV are NOT Bitcoin.

True. But some of us might want to make trades using these information to hopefully earn profit; to increase our BTC holdings of course. Tongue
10116  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can the Outbreak of CORONA Virus lead to Increase ..... on: February 11, 2020, 03:47:59 PM
the chinese are not in fear.

I agree with most of what you have said, but I'm not sure about this one. I'm pretty sure some cities/provinces being forced to lock-down is going to strike fear to some chinese people. And yea, I know like 2 people from China, and people are definitely scared even though they aren't even from Wuhan. Having a virus spreading(yes, fatality rate is low, I know) has a really different mental/emotional effect compared to just having smog from heavy pollution that the chinese are pretty much used to now.

But yea, I agree that bitcoin's increase has nothing to do with the corona virus.
10117  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Should I make a legacy, segwit or native segwit wallet? (Electrum) on: February 11, 2020, 03:25:03 PM
Some services or people want you to only use addresses you can sign messages from. Unfortunately you can't sign messages from segwit addresses in most(all?) wallets as of now.

Yes. That's the only exception that I can think of. Basically for staked addresses[1] here on Bitcointalk; for changing addresses on campaigns and account recovery and such. Beyond that, I don't even know other services outside Bitcointalk that requires signing of messages.

10118  Other / Meta / Re: Request an option to cancel a report. on: February 11, 2020, 02:55:46 PM
Oh boy I'd definitely like this option. Sometimes, after a night of heavy drinking, I decide to read a few threads on Bitcointalk for a few minutes before I go to bed. It has already happened like around 3 times already that instead of giving 1 merit to certain posts, for some reason my drunk brain instead makes me click on the report button and type the "1" there instead.



Yep.
10119  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Should I make a legacy, segwit or native segwit wallet? (Electrum) on: February 11, 2020, 02:49:40 PM
If you are totally new to crypto, then you should make a legacy address and it will serve your purpose. I am still using the legacy wallets ever since I made them a long time ago and didn't find any need to switch to the segwit wallet.

Why though? There's almost no reason to use legacy addresses now besides a few exceptions. It's not like SegWit addresses are harder to use, as the user experience pretty much the same. And who doesn't like cheaper transaction fees?
10120  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can the Outbreak of CORONA Virus lead to Increase ..... on: February 11, 2020, 02:44:23 PM
It could be, though I completely doubt it. The Corona virus isn't even THAT globally widespread(as of now at least, hopefully it won't) to actually make people move to a safe haven asset due to the anticipation of more economic uncertainty. If anything, I'm betting that the price increase was due to the anticipation of the halving. But ultimately, no one knows the main reason is.
