Well February gone.
Any news on the casino sites?
Gc said he has everything in place. They are just waiting for a 3rd party to give the go ahead to turn in on. That is good to hear. Because the release of Sandcoins and the integration of CSC into FIAT casinos will be definitely a game changer here. To make things better, I think that we need one more exchange get more trading activity. About the Casinocoinsites, I have been patiently waiting for the big event which would be the release of the Prypto cards. Hopefully, this month would be one for CSC to shine. I am holding my coins...  |

As I recall you are only seeing those unconfirmed transactions when they come from the faucet. Most faucet transactions confirm quickly, but sometimes they show unconfirmed. We are seeing that all other (non-faucet) transactions confirm normally. The problem is in the wallet at the faucet. Many days the faucet gets 1000+ requests a day. The system simply can't handle the load. We go in and clean up the wallet twice per week and that keeps the faucet working most of the time.
We are looking at a better longterm solution other than our routine maintenance to solve the problem. But since the faucet is just a free give-away program, we have not devoted the resources to fixing it completely.
You can test this by sending or receiving normal transactions to and from user wallets, and you will always see quick confirmations.
Great. Thanks for the tip. I guess it was an issue at the AppleByte orchard after all. I am going to try out sending some ABY to another wallet and see if it gets confirmed.  |

This is why solutions such as the LN are needed.
But doesn't the Lightning Network affect Bitcoin's security as well? I am not really sure but I have a bad feeling about it. For Bitcoin to handle more TPS I think there needs to be some serious development to be done, especially the security of the Bitcoin network. Just my opinion. |

This ETH doubler looks even more interesting than the others. I can see that the concept is pretty unique with dynamic payout rates and fees. I will give it a try during the weekend if the contract is still working. Great job!  This contract cannot be stopped or deleted. It will go on for as long as the Ethereum blockchain and network exists, another huge pro. Some other contracts I have seen, allow the owner to close the contract, and deposit any leftover funds to themselves. Not this one, this one has NO kill function. Sweet. That is definitely a good thing to keep using the contract for long term. I will give it a try later and see how it works. How long would it take to receive payout, if may I ask? |

Sidechains are basically a mechanism with enables you to move your coins into another blockchain without the need of a third party or anything. This is done with a two-way-peg and you can move your coins back later. It is not easy to explain them in a very short way; this might help. Thanks for the clarification. Based on what I have read, I guess that coins or protocol that is like a sidechain could be Omni (before was Mastercoin) Coins like Tether and Counterparty run on the same Bitcoin block chain. About Bitcoin's TPS, I think that it may reach out Visa's level if some improvements would be done to it. This could really happen in the future and thus Bitcoin would become mainstream |

I think second level solutions like side chains can probabaly bring that kind of transactions processing to the masses. I have heard about sidechains but have not gone deeper into it. If you would like to enlighten me more about it, I would greatly appreciate it. Based on what I have read from your post, it looks like it is a very interesting concept. |

There has been many forms of mining crypto currencies. One of them is the well known Proof of Work system, which requires computing power made by a CPU or an ASIC miner in order to secure the coin's network. Then came Proof of Stake, and others such as Delegated Proof of Stake and Proof of Concept. Which would you think it would be the best form of mining cryptos? In my opinion, I would choose Proof of Work because I think it is more secure than others. |
|
|
|
I was wondering if there could be a possibility of making Bitcoin handle TPS as fast an efficient as Visa? Perhaps, it could be achieved but I think that Bitcoin's security would be at risk don't you think? Maybe this has something to do with a block size increase... I would like to see your opinions about it. |

I have a new strategy to share with you guys all, you can bet small amount on a event and then wait for outcome
( please choose sportsbook ) and then bet on another sport if lost, I am sure you cannot predict 10 wrong picks in sports, while in dice you always can loose 10 consecutively.
Does this strategy really work? I may try it, but I have wasted to much money on gambling that makes me what to think twice before I make my move. Still, I would test it out with a small amount of satoshis earned from faucets and see if this strategy is really effective. |

Sure it could be changed to but look how hard it is to change anything bitcoin, I think we are going to have realize Bitcoin isn't going to be the all in one coin solution unless many things change.
Agree. And I might think that the perfect candidate for this type of thing could be Ethereum all along. Since it is a decentralized app platform, such application could be made within the Ethereum blockchain to program any vending machine or arcade cabinet to accept ETH. It would be much faster to confirm an ETH transaction, than having to wait 15 to 30 minutes for BTC to get confirmed at all. |

How to plot and mine on your phone (Linux experience is helpful) This guide is for Anroid 5.x and it's better your SD-Card is formatted exFat for files bigger than 4 GB. Plotting: 1. You need a Terminal for your phone – I recommend Termux for Android 5.x → https://termux.com/ 2. After starting Termux type: 3. type 4. type apt install apt install git 5. type git clone https://github.com/dawallet/burst_arm_tools 6 type 7 type cd dcct_tools_for_android 8 type 9 type 10 type 11 type ./plot32 -k 1232353462354235 -d /storage/sdcard1/Android/data/com.termux/ -s 0 -n 10000 -m 1024 -t 4 How to use dcct_tools is explained here: Short explanation and here: Detailed explanationMining: 1. type chmod 777 mine_pool_all32 (or mine32, mine_pool_share32 – depends which file you want to use) 2. type ./mine_pool_all32 burst.ninja /storage/sdcard1/Android/data/com.termux/ Voilá. The port is alpha, there are many bugs. Please share your experience. The directory on SD Card have to be writeable and due to Androids permission policy it has to be the /com.termux/ directory! - daWallet Now this is very useful. I was looking forward into something like this for my spare Android tablet. Luckily, I hope it would work with an external ssd connected to it via a USB OTG cable. I will give it a try. I have been away from the Burst world for quite some time, but checked into my wallet today and found out that my balance hasn't changed since February 7 of this year. It seemed a little odd for me since I have invested into Playground and ByteEnt asset, and usually dividends are paid weekly and sometimes monthly but there has been a delay since the date mentioned earlier. Am I missing something?  |

Peercoin (PoS originator) doesn't get enough credit due to the shitcoin flood that happened and continues to happen.
Yacoin (3rd PoS and Scrypt-N and SHA3 originator) has suffered from the same thing.
Both of these are the most remarkable PoS coins in existence, especially Peercoin since it was the first coin that introduced this form of mining. It has gotten my attention, but something I wonder why it is so cheap when it is the original PoS coin. I am gathering a list of good PoS coins and investing into some of them to build up my portfolio. Diamond has a high stake rate which makes it very interesting to invest into it as well.  |

I have a question about staking Tekcoins. Since coins mature every 30+ days, I was wondering if it is possible to receive stakes on the amount staked from the original balance (if you know what I mean). Let's say I have 15000 TEK and I receive 1200 TEK as staking earnings, would that 1200 TEK received from stake be able to mature once it is 30 days or more, or does it only apply to received TEK coins (non staked)? I am confused. |

New ZiftrCOIN Presale Launched! December 15, 2014, 09:12:56 AMhttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=894605.0
Hi All! Wanted to take a moment to let you know that we just launched the ziftrCOIN presale on December 9th. As of 4 PM EST today, we’ve sold over 3.3 million ziftrCOINs for roughly $450,000 or around 1,260 BTC. (https://www.ziftrcoin.com/presale/)
 1,260 BTCCoin was scam from beginning. Market cap lost value of 1187 btc / $418,357 less than when listed Coin exist only for scammers to make btc. coin is dead no chance recovery There was never plan besides easy btc for buying cars and taking vacation. investors scammed out of btc. face facts move on. Obvious coin is abandoned by scammers. Thanks for sharing this useful information. I have never thought that this coin would end up this way. That explains why it has been left behind with no news, development, etc. It looks like it has been completely abandoned. There was only one thing that I saw, and that was merging with GoCoin, but still I wonder whenever this would really work out. Unless another dev team takes the lead, this coin is none other than just a pump and dump scam. |

If I could work out how BitShares worked I would be tempted to set something up, but I find the whole thing very confusing tbh!
I did ask in the forum about this a whole ago, and didn't get any help, I don't have time unfortunately to learn about it else I would.
Bitshares might be a little confusing, but perhaps this guide could be of assistance to you. Here is the link: http://docs.bitshares.eu/bitshares/tutorials/uia-create-manual.html?highlight=assetIf its too much for you, I could handle it but I would need some time in order to get used to the platform and start this up. |

Pi 3 is already released and going out fast (but not enough to be already out of stock, so you can get it fairly easily). 64 bit will certainly be an advantage for things related to cryptography... But we'll see if it will be a major improvement for Bitcoin. I doubt that a bit. An improvement to run a node would be more RAM, and that's not possible with the current SoC on the Pi.
Wow that was really fast. So that means I could get my hands on one and improve my BTC node. Still, I would also order a Pine 64+ which has bigger RAM and will be suitable for running a BTC node as well. |

If you tried to use a flash drive to store the data on the raspberry pi to allow the bitcoin node to function faster. So long as you did a backup every week you could try to enable write-only on the drive to stop it from being likely corrupted. Or just leave it and format it when i does become corrupted.
Thanks for the advice. A flash drive might come in handy for the RPi BTC node. I am thinking of setting up a swap partition from within the drive for better performance of the node. P.S. Just saw that there will be a much more powerful SBC to be released soon. Its name will be the Raspberry Pi 3. It will have a 64-bit CPU. |

This is really sweet. It allows you to buy XMG with other alternative payment methods. I may have been a little away from the Magi world for quite some time. Is there something new that I might have missed? It seems that the price is back at $0.01 again. |

Great initiative. Hopefully the Quark team will consider your offering and MUE will go all the way towards the roof. About my past post, regarding the idea of making an asset within the BitShares platform, it was only a suggestion which is only optional. But still, it would be cool to see such thing. I have been watching MUE's price closely and it has increased a little bit. That is really a good sign |

why run a node in a Raspberry board for hobby or a practice motivation? just to understand.... I just want to run a node on a Raspberry Pi since it is the cheapest to go with experimenting and practicing about BTC nodes. This would be more like a hobby than a real thing since the RPi is not very powerful for this task. |
