See here : https://news.bitcoin.com/3-websites-bitcoin-paying-freelance-jobs/ and here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=53026.0
Basically none of them is popular and you won't really find results like you find in websites like oDesk or Freelancer.com , if I were you I'd post on Services section here and on forums like Leakforums & HackForums etc ... you will have have more chances to sell/buy services using payment method that fits you .
11202  Economy / Speculation / Re: Big Rally In Progress! on: December 18, 2015, 07:10:47 AM
We just hit a new 24 hour high with solid momentum and are getting much closer to the monthly high.
Big Rally In Progress!
How much higher can we go?

We do have two weeks before the new year , so I'd say we can reach 500$ per BTC before that !
11203  Economy / Exchanges / Re: The Merkle / Bitcoin Exchanges Chart on: December 18, 2015, 07:04:25 AM
I'm not sure if you are still taking suggestions because I told you last time to add few more things but you didn't ... but well it's your choice I suppose .
So for what comes to BTC-E It's from Russia according to this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BTC-e also adding Huobi & BTCC would be good since they are have huge trading volume according to the one you listed .
11204  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Not connecting on: December 18, 2015, 06:57:27 AM
I've been using electrum for for over a year now without any issues and all of a sudden when I start the client it says "Not connect". I waited a while and it still says not connected. I tried updating, no luck. Restarted many times, disabled firewall, still not working. Tried switching from connect automatically to a specific server, not working. How do I fix this, or how do I use my electrum wallet with a different bitcoin client?




It sounds weird since you are using the latest stable version and it's still not working ... anyway to use your Electrum wallet with a different bitcoin client all you have to do is export the private keys (they Either start with 5 , L or K ) then you can simply import them to wallets like Bitcoin Core or Blockchain.info . (It's not recommended to keep your funds on online wallet like Blockchain.info for long time even if most people do it ) .
11205  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Is all of Electrum written in Python? on: December 18, 2015, 06:52:45 AM
As far as I know it's a yes , all of it is written on Python according to this :



and you can see the whole project on Github here : https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum
11206  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The case of chargebacks on: December 17, 2015, 05:53:54 PM
How having charge backs is going to help Bitcoin ? It won't . In fact most of people who are using Bitcoin right now probably use it because it's a secure method that they can use to sell their stuff . Beside & in my opinion , Bitcoin not allowing charge-backs just decrease scams because it makes people more careful when they buy stuff .
11207  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: CoinTelegraph publishes nonsense story claiming to receive e-mail from Satoshi on: December 17, 2015, 05:46:39 PM
I was just reading the article on Cointelegraph and was going to post about it but since you made one ... I'm the only one who don't see this "signed" message on the picture ?
Cointelegraph is known for promoting scams and stuff so I wouldn't trust them honestly , they probably just want to get more traffic .
11208  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Running Electrum Server ? on: December 17, 2015, 07:17:03 AM
In the meantime, i've found that the tutorial here works just fine:

https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-server/blob/master/HOWTO.md

If you follow it, you end up with a fully functional electrum server  Grin

Thanks mate , I'm going to take a look at it . Hopefully it contain answers for my questions as-well .
11209  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did you have your paper wallet in printed form with you? on: December 17, 2015, 07:04:27 AM
I have created cold wallet address on blockchain.info and than print out paper and delete its copy from laptop. So it is now completely offline. Is this the safest way to store coin, as i think so.

Did you have also printed paper wallet and have it with you. For better protection i have laminated paper and put it in safe.  Cool

Your paper wallet made from blockchain.info may be safe if you hide very well however and since you made it from Blockchain.info , your account can always be compromised if they (blockchain.info) get hacked .
It would be better if you use Bitaddress to generate the paper wallet offline and on Live-CD Linux and then you print it to make sure everything is okay .

I may be interested , I got some knowledge on ASP.NET (web) and C# however you should consider giving more information's about the business is it a web ? is it a game ? because some projects can be hard for me P.M or post here for more details and thanks Smiley
11211  Economy / Economics / Re: Will Bitcoin always be dependent on fiat? Is it? on: December 16, 2015, 06:28:17 PM
Only way that we don't rely on dollar or other currencies to use bitcoin is that Bitcoin should be the currency it self used by the governments but government won't be okay with this so yeah ... chances that Bitcoin will replace fiat are 0% and probably never going to happen .
11212  Other / MultiBit / Re: MultibitHD and Breadwallet on: December 16, 2015, 05:43:49 PM
Can you please link me ? I can't seem to find anything about it by googling or by searching here : https://multibit.org/en/help/hd0.1/contents.html I don't think it's possible and I never heard of such feature before . Most of Desktop wallet have features related to Hardware wallets like Trezor but not with mobile wallets as you said .
11213  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Cold Storage or Multisig? on: December 16, 2015, 04:17:05 PM
Completely new to this. Haven't even downloaded the client. Just trying to get a handle on how this all works.

So which way is recommended? Which way is more secure?

If I install electrum on a computer that is online all the time and use a wallet from there, how likely is it that I can be hacked?

Thanks


Using Electrum should be safe just like using any other Desktop wallet however you should make sure to not download things like "Bitcoin Generator" "Steam wallet code generator" and that kind of silly stuff that you find in internet and execute without knowing the content .
Other then that , Cold storage (like Paper wallets) is much more safer since it doesn't touch the internet at all and if you hide somewhere safe you are fine however if someone finds it and the private keys wasn't encrypted then you are screwed .
11214  Economy / Economics / Re: Holdings of gold vs Holdings of btc on: December 16, 2015, 03:38:12 PM
People who have Gold should be logically more then those who have bitcoin , Bitcoin will never and I mean never have a value like gold honestly , people will invent something better then bitcoin with the upcoming years , even if it's not for our lifetime However gold will stay gold and won't lose it value because it exists for thousands of years .
11215  Economy / Speculation / Re: Poll: What year will we hit $100,000? on: December 16, 2015, 03:25:29 PM
"Feeling" that the price will rise is nice and cool  ... but unless it's based on charts and real reasons it's useless .
I took the "$10,000 to $50,000 MAX" because I think that's the max Bitcoin can go to , at least for our life time . Still it's just an opinion and can be changed by time because I never seen halving impact on price before so who knows we may be able to reach that price and more  ...
11216  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who are the richest Bitcoin users and how much do they own? on: December 16, 2015, 03:06:51 PM
As you said , you can't get them connected to each other and most of the time people use different addresses to hold multiple amounts of bitcoins so you can't be sure how much they actually own .
Also , most of the time those big addresses are owned by companies and exchanges and not by individuals , so I'd say it's something like this :

1. Satoshi Nakamoto (If he didn't lose his private keys)
2. Mark Karpeles (If he really did the Mtgox scenario)
3. Roger Ver (If he actually owns amount you mentioned) .

As you can see I made in bold "if" because we can never be sure unless they admit that they own those amounts , and for what comes to Gavin , I don't think he holds that much . I'd he probably have less then 100 BTC .
11217  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitwala , legit or scam ? on: December 16, 2015, 02:50:30 PM
I haven't used Bitwa.la yet. But everyone is saying great things about their service. It seems like they facilitate buys from PayPal and into PayPal

I tried to search but couldn't find anything useful , so if you don't mind please link me to this "everyone is saying great things about their service" .

Bitwala is ok as a service..

But you can also check us at Cashila. We offer the same service, if you would like to make payments with bitcoin or receive funds in your wallet.
We are fully transparent and licensed by the Czech National Bank. Also we offer somewhat of a better price for your bitcoins Wink

I actually just want to know about Bitwala and not about similar services to it , to see how screwed up things went on Cointelegraph (if it's a scam) , but thanks for the offer .

11218  Economy / Investor-based games / Re: MinuteBTC website on: December 15, 2015, 07:14:46 AM
Hi, I've stumbled across the website you see in the subject, looks really good and I've tried to test it out. Has anyone used it before or is anyone using it now? Can you tell me your thoughts on it and the whole progress.

I never tried it before but by just checking the website I'd say it's a ponzi scheme and it's a scam , there is no such a thing as free or easy money , they may give you something at the beginning but sooner or later they will start locking accounts and run with people's money  or claim that they got hacked and sell their database to even make more money . Stay away from it .
11219  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin reached 450$ today. share your views guys on: December 15, 2015, 06:10:41 AM
Bitcoin reached 454$  Smiley Smiley :)Please share your views and future bump and dump about BTC price...

If there is any apparent reason of this pump then I can't seem to see it . However ... I'd say that the price won't reach 500$ in the next two weeks (before the end of December) but there is chances that we will start the new year with 500$++ within the first couple of weeks of January , price should continue to rise slowly and we may see pump when we are too close from the halving block reward date . (Let's say June) .
11220  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What unit do you find more comfortable when measuring BTC values? on: December 14, 2015, 05:24:50 PM
I use BTC as unit , anything else for me seem to be complicated to convert it to Euro , GBP , Dollar or other currencies . But overall it's just a matter of getting used to it , if you are used to use faucets etc ... you will more then likely know how to use Satoshi's and the other small units .
