Well, then at least it would be great if there's a button to add a transaction fee to an unconfirmed transaction
[...]
You cant actually "add" a fee to an existing transaction.
[...]
tl;dr: This^. [...] Yes, I have also seen other people mentioning and explaining same thing. I just wish it was easy for noob people to do, rather then punching commands and firing up various tools to do this. A simple and nice button would do the job. |

"The trial of alleged Silk Road ringleader Ross Ulbricht took a surprising twist today when a witness from the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) apparently claimed that Mark Karpeles, former CEO of the embattled bitcoin exchange Mt Gox, was once suspected to be the black market's mastermind, Dread Pirate Roberts." Source: http://www.coindesk.com/mt-gox-ceo-mark-karpeles-implicated-silk-road-trial/--------------------------------------------------- What do you think guys ? I don't know if he was the real DPR, or if he was involved in Silk Road in any way. BUT I JUST LOVE TO PUT ANY KIND OF BLAME ON THAT FAT SUCKER SCAMMER! HE WAS THE ONE !!  |

The people defending ponzis will tell you it's a game not a scam because the implied fact you will lose money is part of the gamble.
Also there WILL be 'investors' who know all these facts and still want to double their holdings overnight, ignoring everything they know. As I read somewhere on this forum, the world never runs out of fools. |

The day when I see a new Ponzi announcement and no one replies or invests in it, that will be the day I'll consider the world is a better place to live in.  |

I see the fault on both sides here.
BitStamp notified the users about the compromised wallets, but still they have to claim the accountability of the lost funds.
on the other hand, it was no small deposit, so I can't justify sending that many BTC to an address without actually logging into the account and verifying everything is good.

Gee, that's quiet a hassle if you ask me.
Indeed. Many new users make such mistake without knowing about priority, fees and confirmation times only to get into dilemma. What would be nice to have is - if your transaction hasn't been confirmed yet, you can click on a button which allows you to - - cancel the transaction - broadcast again with revised fees |

The subject of the name came up today and I wanted to get an idea of what other people think about it. I personally find it a bit grim. How do you feel about the current name? Can you think of a better one? And, all other factors aside, do you think that another name would improve its chances of long-term success (or is the name just not that important)?
Thanks
Depends on what new name you're going to chose. If new name sounds better, it is a good idea. If it sounds worse than original, it is a bad idea. Sensible approach would be to build up a list of few names and arrange a poll to see if new names make sense to people. |

Sure maybe one-time 30k seller can have occured but that's also 'normal free market action' and no manipulation to the downside like 'the bearwhale' implies.
nobody says the 'Bearwhale' implies manipulation. It just means someone owned 30,000 BTC (hence the term 'whale') but was 'bear' enough to sell them at the lowest prices at the time. |

thanks for link dogechain and litechain working same as blockchain? Every crypto currency has its own block chain. Transactions for Bitcoins are stored in Bitcoin's block chain. Transactions for Dogecoin are stored in Dogecoin's block chain and so on... There are different ways to access these block chains. You can you many of the available sites (blockchain.info, blockexplorer etc.. just Google) to view Bitcoin's block chain (public ledger). Other currencies have their own explorers, you can find references on official sites of those coins. |

did u read this sentence ? i mined at eligus but i just got 14 satoshis in 24h
That is what you'll get when you mine Bitcoin with GPU. This is the era of specialized ASIC hardware for Bitcoin mining. GPU mining is now outdated. You can do it for fun, but you will hardly earn any Bitcoins. If you still want to mine with your GPU, look at alt-coin mining. Many coins support GPU mining and you can convert them to Bitcoins. There are also some multi-pools where they mine most profitable alt-coins and automatically convert them to BTC and pay you in BTC. Some examples are clevermining and wafflepool. Just google it. |

Is it possible to know the wallet address belongs to which exchanger?
for example, if I have an wallet address, is it possible to know it belongs to which exchanger?
everyone can see the bitcoins value in the wallet, is that safe?
What do you mean by 'exchanger'? Do you mean an exchange like BitStamp, or you mean a person? |
|

Thanks, I am new in BTC and trybf to understand how it works, you said "using an exchange wallet to send/receive is also a way to cover tracks", the problem is my wallet address in the exchanger is always same, so people will also know I send to an exchanger address and then withdraw from the exchanger's address and forward to another address, in what you said, I MUST change my wallet address in the exchanger and then send out?
Most exchanges allow you to generate new address on daily basis, see if that's the case with your exchange. On your desktop wallet, you can even keep rotating addresses (or even keep generating new addresses for every transaction you make). |

In Coinsecures case, you as the user determines the price for Buying or Selling Bitcoin. We also have fee based priorities, etc which makes us a real-time Algorithmic trading platform, where price discovery is by the Users. unocoin is a website where people buy and sell to unocoin, rather than other users directly.
I was assuming this would be the case. In Unocoin when you transfer money and place order, they buy BTC for you and deposit it into your account. Unocoin is the trader you're dealing with, not the other user. So in Coinsecure's case, when I place an order, it should execute immediately, right? Because I'm dealing directly with the buyer? |

I usually hear some complicated ways of receiving bitcoin that would probably turn others off like the noobs or masses
If giving them btc or telling a noob to get a payment from you from btc all you need is
-snip-
For a complete noob or the old Joe, I believe there have to be some easier way than this, to receive Bitcoins. Take a look at this:  While I don't personally use it (because I'm doing fine loading my Multibit on PC), I really like how they're making sending/receiving Bitcoins a very simple process like sending an email. You just need a easy-to-remember user name to give your address to someone. |

While this might not be the ONLY reason Bitcoin price went down, it might be one of the primary factors. I'm surprised no one dug it out before. Such a major exchange of coins cannot go unnoticed for long. And if this is true, I'm actually relieved that price fall didn't have anything to do with loss of interest in market or lost demand. It just means ample supply on the sell side. |

Well i accept bitcoins for many freelancing jobs. Why would it be illegal?
Accepting bitcoins for freelancer job is not illegal, but the question how you are treating them in your tax return and want kind of documentation trail you are keeping in order to support with department queries is what matters. I am not sure if many people actually go about filing those incomes in their tax returns. As its hard to know which bitcoin address is whose, it would also be hard for the government to find out unless you trade them for Fiat. Correct. It is more of a moral issue right now. If you want to report all your BTC income as regular income, you might want to pay tax on it. But since RBI has no such guideline (how to calculate tax on Bitcoin income), you might just want to report only the amount you convert to fiat. Having that said, it would be nice to have some guidelines from RBI or income tax department on how taxable BTC is and how much tax to pay. |
