10681  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should Gavin resign from developement of Bitcoin? [POLL] on: June 05, 2015, 12:07:37 PM
I voted, no. Gavin knows exactly what has to be done, and he has been here from the early days. Also important, he is one of the very few that had at least some sort of contact with Satoshi.

You can consider the technology already failed horribly as it has been surpassed by several altcoins on every aspect that is important for mainstream adoption.

If so, then why are you still here? Go play in the altcoin section if you so wish. Bitcoin technology hasn't even started with showing its power.

Beside that, the blockchain as technology will enjoy adoption by banks and other companies. So tell me, what exactly is failed  Smiley

I found that while my account have been upgraded to Sr. Member, my signature is still the Full Member one. Will changing the signature to the one that suits my new level this time affect my payments?

Also, I can't go to the page http://bitmixer.io/signature.html to check my stats. Can someone check that?

The page is working fine, no problems here. If you really want to change your signature to the sr member version, better wait till you received your payout, and then after that update it.

I'm not sure if updating it now will make you lose your payment. Best is to wait. Better safe than sorry.

I hope Windows 10 has a better way of downloading and installing updates than its previous versions. Currently it's shit. I love the way Mac OS is handling their updates.

I am on a legit version of Windows 7, and I have a laptop with a legit Windows 8.1, I will try it out on the laptop first as I don't think anything can be worse than Windows 8.

10685  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ransom Paid In Bitcoin on: June 04, 2015, 05:21:54 AM
Low life people. Demanding ransom is one thing, but severely threatening the people personally is beyond disgusting. That's why you should never leave too much data about yourself on social media sites.

This should be (another) wake up call for businesses to shore up their security against these attacks.

Most companies try to save on things as IT, which is a huge mistake as you can see.
10686  Economy / Speculation / Re: Now that bitlicense is final, all eyes on the Winkies on: June 04, 2015, 05:16:37 AM
Coinbase got the regulation thing and no long term effect on price, why should be different with the Winkies?

People always expect too much, high hopes mostly end in low rewards.

Fully regulated exchanges would at least receive some sort of coverage by Bitcoin related news sites and such. Can't seem to find anything regarding your exchange.
OP haven't given ur his exchange details. I think the reasons many ppl like to go regulated exchanges is that the exchanges are legit and regulated by govs.

Do you read anything before posting a comment? He stated in this thread that the exchange site is altbitex.com. Beside that, you didn't understand my question.
10688  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: bitpay does not dump on exchanges on: June 03, 2015, 10:14:00 PM
The "investors" that they sell to, they can dump on exchanges, hedge ect. If they sold the coins they would need to
get a trading desk , a whole dept for selling the coins and not just "dump". imo


Yeah, at the end of the day people are going to end up doing whatever they want with their money. If they want to dump, they will dump. They don't dump, someone else will.
We shouldn't be worried about people dumping their coins, but about demand lowering. As long as there is demand, who cares if people dump.

It's all about the relation between the supply and the demand. But I agree with you, we should worry about decreasing demand. Now more and more people know about Bitcoin, we should experience an increase in demand (which increases the current value too). There will always be people selling or dumping their coins; there's no way to stop that. Increasing the demand for Bitcoin is the way to go.

many of the current "exchanges" seem flawed.. the amount of resistance (huge lumps(walls) of bitcoin) seems low. where just 20-200 bitcoin can make the price change dramatically.

The solution to this problem is one global orderbook. 200BTC dumps wouldn't stand a chance then. I really hope it becomes reallity at some point in the future.

i voted for Ronaldo and there is 1 simple reason for that:

Ronaldo played premier league AND premiera division and dominated in both.

Messi only played Barcelona....fullstop

Messi in current form is beyond amazing. I don't think he will ever go to England, which I totally understand. Barcelona is build around Messi.
10691  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-06-03] Will Google Android Pay Accept Bitcoin? on: June 03, 2015, 09:29:44 PM

A Reddit post notes that “apps like Circle or Coinbase [could] use Android Pay APIs to pay for purchases in stores using NFC, instantly converting Bitcoin to fiat.” Some participants in the ensuing discussion thread express frustration at the ongoing mainstreaming of the Bitcoin space and fears that it will be controlled by the usual suspects, the financial establishment and corporate giants.

I'm not a user of Circle & Coinbase, so not sure how paying via them works. Will you be able to pay via your balance on one of these exchanges? If so, that would be amazing.

Via that way you don't need to wait for confirmations, no matter how large the purchase amount is. Much better than currently paying with a wallet on your mobile.

Thanks for being such a great signature campaign, have had pleasure of earning some coins while posting.

OIL is a very good choice, since price is very low,
We can expect big rise in next few weeks

Why do you think oil is a very good investment? Because it is not. It's an ok option if you know how to ride waves. Price right now looks like it is due for another dip.

Like Amph stated, Bitcoin is the best option. Just buy and hold. Simple and easy.
10694  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-05-31] NY Post: Bitcoin struggles for legitimacy on: June 02, 2015, 10:53:34 PM
Bitcoin is already legitimate. Just because people use it for so called illegitimate means doesn't mean anything. People use fiat money for this type of stuff and in far bigger volume. If anything, its use on the darknet proves its legitimacy as a currency because as with any currency you should be able to buy absolutely anything you like with it.

They like to put Bitcoin in a bad day light, you must know by now how the media is. Just ignore these clowns. Bitcoin isn't any worse than fiat currency regarding being used for criminal activities.

UAE.

I like hot weather and sun.

Same here, I also want to live in the UAE. Here in Western Europe the sun doesn't seem to settle well.
10697  Economy / Speculation / Re: Those who purchased at $1000 on: June 02, 2015, 12:33:42 PM
I hate to say it but if somebody bought bitcoin at $1000 and kept it this long, he/she should never invest in any market ever again.
$1000 was a big bubble and if anyone didn't know that by then, they should've knows after the first decline in price, sold, gathered their losses and bought back in again.

Most people that didn't know Bitcoin well enough were chasing insane profits. For these people it was a very costly lesson.

One look at the chart back then would be enough to realize it was a horrible time to buy Bitcoin at that level.

They don't know the saying; Buy when people are dumping like crazy, and sell when people are buying like there is no tomorrow.
10698  Economy / Speculation / Re: What would be the BTC price next 48 hours? on: June 02, 2015, 12:27:59 PM
high chances that it will not goes to sub 200, resistance should hold, but expect another small drop

in the case that we fall even to sub 200, it should return quickly above it, nothing to worry about, hold strong and feels good when the whole fud about Gavin will end

It's just a matter of days, perhaps weeks before the whole nonsense drama (created by trolls and noobs) about Bitcoin-XT will stop.

As far as the price, I don't think much will change in 48 hours. It will swing between $220-$230 levels.
10699  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What kinds of exchanges do you think are trustworthy? on: June 02, 2015, 12:22:33 PM
If there's my money on the line then I want - total transparency and proof of reserves, accountability, an identifiable team and, whisper it, regulation.

If I steal a pile of someone else's money I fully expect to be nailed to the wall for it. I expect the same for people who do it to me.

Those who want to remain in the wild west phase, well that hasn't really worked out for an awful lot of people.

When innocent customers are raped it's very easy to say 'exercise due diligence' or 'that's the free market in action'. No it ain't. It's stupidity and dishonesty in perfect combination. If it's you who's a victim you're going to be squealing just as loudly as anyone else.

I wish all exchanges listed proof of their reserves on their site. So far to this date still not every exchange have done this, which is quite sad.

Regarding OP; I don't trust any exchange. It doesn't matter how insured the exchange is. I will always keep my coins in my offline wallet.
10700  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: Should you stay or should you go? on: June 02, 2015, 12:11:20 PM
i think bitcoin price is going to continue to have this downward trend for much longer now. it is slowly going down but it is not gonna reach the 2009 state again.
i think it is going to stop eventually and start going up again after this phase is completed. and we are gonna have another bubble, not as big as before but still a bubble.

It's easy to say the price will continue to go down as it has been doing so for quite a while now. Nothing new here. Stop waiting for bubbles, they always pop.

I prefer a stable growth spreaded over several years instead of 1 or 2 bubbles. Have patience.
