Do people really think bitcoin will end after Aug 1? I think it will rise and that's why people who selling now at low prices will regret doing it.
Problem here is that people are infecting each other with non/false information. It has gone so far, that people let their pee go as soon as they think about everything that may or may not happen at the first of August. Let them sell as much as they want, because one thing is sure, they WILL buy back at far higher levels. They start with 1 BTC for example, and due to the selling at lower levels, and buying back at higher levels, they end up with 0.5 BTC. It's capital destruction, but they don't realize it yet.... Smart people get wealthier and wealthier, while idiots only see their wealth constantly shrink. good point if those dumpers only realized it much earlier i think the value won't go down up to this limits they been tricked by the bag holders which just shaking the market and make many fuds to scares investors perhaps we just needed to act wisely before making any decision watching the dump with an open mind knowing that bounce back will happen next will let us safe in any harm of the whales. Exactly and the most that have done that is those people that just went to bitcoin trading and think that they will gain a huge profit easily. Later realizing that it was not meant to be so they can choose to sell it without thinking that they are in the losing end of it. That's why we always heard that the 'weak hands are shaken' adage. Speculation FUD waves and the market reacts. Simply as that. |

I entered in world of blockchain a month ago, my holder is coinbase?
Will it hold both splits of BTC or should I go for personal ledger?
The best solution to your problem is to move your funds to a wallet that you have control over the private keys. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2017191.0As per Theymos, A very short summary of what you need to do:1. Ensure that you have no BTC deposited with a Bitcoin bank or other trusted third-party before Aug 1. If there's no technical way for you to export the private keys for your BTC, then that BTC is at risk. Some Bitcoin banks may assure you that they'll definitely keep your BTC safe, but I absolutely wouldn't trust them. 2. Do not send transactions or trust received transactions starting 12 hours before Aug 1 at midnight UTC, and continue this until you hear the "all clear" from several trustworthy sources. For example, I will post a forum news item if everything is OK, or if everything is not OK and action is required. See my guide here for more a lot more detail: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2012799.0 |

It depend on your situation. Let's say your job requires you to be in front of a computer then its would be easy for you to go on bitcoin. But if its not, then just focus on your current job and just save your money and to buy bitcoin. And if you want to quit your job, be sure you have enough funds for at least 6 months so that you can at least survived and sustained yourself.

It seems the uncertainty going further
segwit code was started to be run and it started to give signal
We could also see the price getting green as the uncertainty might go further.
Let s see if forking result better, crypto market ll be better
Yes, the segwit2x software was being implement since yesterday that's why we are seeing that bitcoin and ETH has already recover the dipping we have encountered the last few days. Really happy to see the market going green again. ETH is now almost 250$ while bitcoin is just above $2300. Really good gains and I hope the price will continue to rise. Easy profits for those who have bought when the price is low sometime ago. |

It's funny that we needed a crash for them to start signalling. They were slacking, thinking it's fine as it is, but they saw that if things continue, by the end of the month they'll be paying more for electricity than they can afford. Shit, it's software update time!  Hahaha. Nice one. They are just waiting for the price of bitcoin to really drop, for all we know they also have a big invested on it. Its good that they take their shit together just in time otherwise we the price is still dipping as I typed. Let's commend this time and hope that this moved will bring a very positive impact to our ecosystem. |

De La Hoya is 5'10'' and Floyd Mayweather gave him a boxing lesson and De La Hoya was a top ranked boxer.
Conor is 5'9'' and doesn't know how to box and has only fought bums that can't do any striking.
A lot of people thought De La Hoya beat Floyd & was robbed by the judges. Even Floyd's dad said he thought De La Hoya won that fight. Conor is 5'9. I think Floyd is 5'8. Floyd's frame is also thinner and less heavily muscled than Conor's. Uncertain as to who the better athlete is. MMA is different with wrestling which leads to MMA fighters developing more core & leg strength than boxers. Conor is constantly chewing gum during press conferences to exercise his jaw and strengthen it against punches. That's probably something many MMA fighters have never even heard of. Conor's base is boxing and in his early fights his boxing might have been better than it was during his early UFC fights. Its really hard to make a technical analysis. No one has ever seen Conor box, seriously against a decent opponent and no one has seen a boxer like Floyd seriously box against an MMA fighter, before. Floyd Mayweather won that fight, go see it again. I doubt Floyd Sr said that his son lost. It may have been when he had beef, I remember during a time Floyd Jr and Sr hated each other so he may have used that close decision to attack his son. Diego Corrales was near 6 ft and Mayweather won too, and these are real boxers. I think when Mayweather faces Dela Hoya, Oscar was the biggest draw that time. Of course a lot of people will see that Oscar has won. And If I'm not mistaken, Dela Hoya throws more punches but only a few landed on Mayweather as we all know he is a defensive specialist. While Floyd hit Oscar clean. Diego Corrales was a different ball game, Floyd was at his peak that time and God the reflexes he shows is amazing. Corrales (RIP) was the best super featherweight lineal champion that time and Floyd made him look likes an amateur. That is one of the best performance I have seen Floydie in my memory. |

Hello everybody,
I have 5 names (a first name, 3 secondary names and a last name) on my ID. In the everyday life I use only my first and my last names. For example, at the bank I'm inscribed with my first and last names. Kraken offer the possibility to write 3 names; therefore I wrote my first name, my first secondary name and my last name. I wanted to withdraw money from my account but Kraken wrote me that it is not possible because the 3 names from my account in Kraken do not correspond to those of my bank account (but they accept money from this bank account without any matter...).
Now no more communication is possible with Kraken. They don't answer me. I can only sell and buy but the money that I wanted to withdraw is hold.
Please, do you have any peace of advice?
Nothing you can do mate but to wait and see how Kraken will take your case. I have 2 first name myself. But I always used them in all of my transactions because I also have a bad experienced with it several years ago. Although sometimes the field is not enough for my first and secondary name, I still try to fill it in. My first name has 7 characters and secondary name has 6 middle name has 8 characters while last name has 5. So imagine every form that I filled with my complete name. LOL. I just hope your issues will be solved the soonest. |

Dam you guys. I never thought bitcoin will fall for girls too, lols! I didn't know these services will someday accept the bitcoin as way of payment. Anyway it's good thing though as bitcoin will have more customer base and the miners will have more work to do. Any suggestions with good cams, I'm seeing all the milf over there.
LOL. You didn't know that bitcoin has already encompasses a lot of industry including porn. I'm pretty sure you know about Legends Room, they used to have a signature campaign here. And they still have facebook and twitter campaign as of the moment. And we all know than porn is a billion dollar industry and bitcoin wants to be part of it.  . However, I'm not into porn and don't want to waste my hard earn bitcoin. |

I can see this happening because it doesn't take any skills or having an education to be able to obtain it. It is all internet money or cryptocurrency as the people online like to call it. So all you need is a data plan to hold,obtain and use it.  Correct. Bitcoin had this kind of ability to give benefits to people who are either unemployed or lack some skills or having an education. I think the OP has made a good moved helping her sister. Also, you may want her to teach how to earn fiat as well. There are a lot of freelancing sites that gives opportunity to others as well. The only drawback I'm seeing is that once your sister has earn bitcoin, she may not look for stable job. Just informed her that bitcoin earning is not stable and they should look for a stable job at least to better support them. You have a point on drawback of bitcoin. I know a lot of bitcoiners that actually do rely on bitcoin as a means of salary, which for me is a mistake. They shouldn't consider bitcoin earning as fixed income. If they are going to rely on signature campaign, then its not enough because we all know that usually its just a month or less campaign. Well there is other campaign that is long running, but its hard to get in because it is already filled in by most seniors members or others who have been here too long in the forum. |

Thankful for that. I did not expect the current rise of bitcoin to happen so fast, I thought the price would decrease more severely, but it did not. Well, I hope the price will not fall below $ 2000 anymore, because it could cause people like me to panic  The drastic price increased today was really unexpected. When I woke up and checked the price, I'm very happy because I didn't panic and just sold my coins. I just hold and believing that the price can recover which proved correct. I'm not nervous even if bitcoin fall again, because it will again rise as what have been displayed today. Just hold and cruise on Aug 1. |

An initial coin offering (ICO) for a little-know startup project called CoinDash was abruptly halted today when it was revealed the sale had been compromised shortly after it began. In total, the ICO was able to raise $7.53m before the ethereum address it was using to solicit funds was altered to a fake one by an unidentified hacker, resulting in the ether going to another source. At the time of publication, the CoinDance website has been shut down, and the project is asking investors who have been affected to submit information to the provided link to collect the CoinDash token (CDT) they should be rewarded through the sale. Full ArticleThis will have a lot of bearing specially that there are a lot of ICO that is popping around the corner. If investors read this then they will have doubts in investing in an ICO. I don't know how investors now can recover their investment and I hope that the company can give them the tokens they bought. Let this be a lesson to all other ICO out there to really secure their funds because hackers are really targeting the crypto world because of the huge amount of money involved. Edit: Here's the official ANN thread of CoinDash and its indeed they are confirming that there is a hacked. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1831969.200 |

So recently I was using this app called Instagram (in case some of you never heard of it) and I posted some pictures & videos related to Bitcoin on my Instagram Stories (Like that day when the price goes insanely high and keep going til now). Then 2 days ago some of my friends suddenly asked me about what Bitcoin is & how could the price goes up like that. And I was surprisingly glad to know that I've influenced some people to get to know Bitcoin. And then I introduced them to Bitcoin and answer their questions about it, there were 3 people asking about Bitcoin that day just because of this 1 post. I mean why don't we just use this power of social media to make people aware about this Cryptocurrency, well I know that there are already some people doing this (like those YouTube channels). But what I'm talking about here is to us to post something about Bitcoin on our social media, you can just at least post something like your first transaction with Bitcoin and share your story on your Facebook or take the picture of your book that you just bought from the internet using your Bitcoin and then post it on your Twitter. Don't be afraid to share your experience, you won't get hurt by doing it! (at least not now)Social Media sites is a good way on spreading some information(facts) and also it can spread false information. Many people are afraid to know and use it. Because they think that bitcoin is an illegal thing it is because it uses in some deep web sites for buying drugs, illegal weaponry etc. But you have a good point that you use yourself as a tool to open the mind of others about bitcoin. Social Media is a very power tool on that will help us spread the news about bitcoin. But I have't done it because my friends would think that I'm posting about that something that has a negative connotation. That's why I don't want to used my Facebook account, we can discuss it if we met in person and we can talk about bitcoin for as long as they want. But I will stay quiet with it in my Twitter or Facebook or any other social media account of mine. |

After I know trading bitcoin and proved more profitable, I leave forex trading, simple thing from tradign bitcoin is easy deposit and withdraw compared to forex.
Nice. I'm not in forex trading although I own a stocks. However, when I got involved in bitcoin, it seems to be that bitcoin or crypto trading is really profitable. But you have to understand how it works and reading market trends. So it involves not only money but a lot time as well. I have done my share and I must say that despite some initial setbacks. I really like what trading brings to me. So I will continue with it and at least make profits from it. |

I don't know how active the Kazakhs are in terms of bitcoin activity. But if they are planning this, then I think the people will know what bitcoin or crypto currency for that matter.
Edit: The article says that they are very active in the Localbitcoin scene so I guess this is a good sign and will bring positive impact to not only locally but to the whole bitcoin ecosystem as well.

Yesterday was a good time to buy Bitcoins, very nice profit for who have bought for about $1980. They can already sell their Bitcoins now or wait a bit more to make a big profit. Very good opportunity.
Now we must keep alert if the BTC price will drop again before August 1 or if it will stay stable. For who wants a safe method just hold the Bitcoins until it skyrockets up to $3000-$5000 in few months, if you sell now there is some risk you will have difficulty to buy cheaper again.
Agreed. Last 2 days was really a good shopping spree as bitcoin was low. But today bitcoin has risen to $2100 levels. And almost every coin is also green. I hope everyone got the chance to buy back bitcoin at a low price. Segwit2x signalling has been started as the miners has started running the New Segwit2x Software. Now the waiting game has begun. Will it push the price further? or will it cause a crash? |

The Bitcoin Scaling Countdown: Miners Begin Running Segwit2x SoftwareMiners Begin Running the New Segwit2x Software As the price of bitcoin dropped to new lows this weekend, some bitcoin proponents were patiently waiting for the promised BTC1 software. Now it seems in a short period of time the bitcoin ‘community’ may see the protocol Segregated Witness (Segwit) activated as the mining community has begun to signal BIP91. The proposal BIP91 is a combination of Segwit2x and BIP148. The version 1.14.4 code has been pushed to the repository by the Segwit2x working group, and a few mining pools have already started running the protocol. https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoin-scaling-countdown-miners-segwit2x-software/And so it began...

Billion-dollar Unregulated Gaming Industry to Embrace Blockchain
Video games started off as arcade machines in the early eighties and were available only in designated areas. However, in the nineties, they migrated to game consoles, and with the emergence of high-speed internet access, they have become one of the most popular entertainment items for millions of people worldwide. This has all made gaming a very attractive industry. However, the market has expanded far beyond the reach of companies and corporations that produce and distribute computer games: due to online platforms like Steam, an entire economy-within-an-economy has emerged. Surprisingly enough for many, it dealt with so-called skins rather than with real money. A skin is effectively a piece of digital content that alters the visual appearance of certain in-game elements like items or characters without having any effect on gameplay. A seemingly innocent thing that dealt mostly with a player’s vanity has unexpectedly become highly sought-after. https://coinidol.com/unregulated-gaming-industry-to-embrace-blockchain/

$10,000 per bitcoin is maybe possible by 2020 if more countries and enough business start to use bitcoin. my prediction for another few month bitcoin price will around 1600-3000 and 5000 next year.
Hmm interesting, as you said 2020 yeah it can be reach to $10,000 till 2020, but in my opinion it will reach soon because as people taking interesting in bitcoin. So that's why bitcoin is playing role of segWit. So we can say that it will boost more than a past and present as bitcoin improving the disadvantages into pros. Its possible to reach this price in 2020, but I guess realistically if everything went smooth after Aug 1 then its possible around 2018 we will see the price can touch 10000$. Its still a long way to go before we see the price touches it but want I like is that there are a lot of people here are very optimistic about the price of bitcoin in the future. And I hope those prediction will come to reality. But now, we need to past the hurdles of a looming split, if there is. |

I have sent BTC yesterday but one day passed it is not confirmed, I have raised mining fee, this sucks.
We cannot state or rather claim that bitcoin will die soon just because of the basis that bitcoin's price value is continuously dumping. We must think this as an opportunity to buy bitcoins and wait for the effect to happen after the segwit fork if it will matter the price pump or not. We just have to wait and hope for the best result to happen. Correct. The price dumping is not a indicator that bitcoin will die just like that. Bitcoin has also crashed in 2013 after the bubble has been burst. But then bitcoin did not die but a lot of investors take advantage of it and hold on bitcoin. And fast forward 2017 the price rise to an unprecedented level making a lot of millionaires. So this should be our mindset about the current situation and not spread FUD around. |

I saw the press conference it was crazy ,Mayweather owned some of the spots in those conference and it was an entertaining one,when it comes to real fight i do think this will be a one sided match where we could see Conor finding it hard to counter Mayweather.
I'm also seeing that scenario as well. The first few rounds will be critical for Connor. He needs to get going otherwise Mayweather will take over. I don't know if Connor will do some dirty tactics like hitting below the belt of roughing up Mayweather to make him uncomfortable. I'm seeing a Maidana like strategy for Connor. But I guess Mayweather is too genius and he will definitely overcome it and will win this fight easy. |
