It is important that a lot of people care and invest

are you a parrot or a part of Eth advertising team copy pasting a script they emailed you?

Monkey see Monkey do, you know how it goes. Eth will be the new GovCoin for governments, because the Dev team is doing everything the governments wants them to be. They have focused on filling the role that Bitcoin do not want to be, namely a Government SlaveCoin.

They started out as a technology that were touted as the ultimate "Smart contract" solution and now that Bitcoin is struggling with the scaling debate, they are being marketed as the "Currency" solution.  ^LoL^
11562  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gavin Andresen: stay away from Blockstream, Greg and Samson are toxic trolls. on: May 04, 2017, 07:35:37 AM
The same toxic trolls have a $24B market running on their software

That is not their software.  That is Satoshi's software.  Their software is full of shit like SegWit and Lightning hooks.  Fuck them.  They are toxic and Gavin knew it all along but tried to be decent until it became impossible.

GMaxwell can just fuck right off.  It'd be even better if he managed to do it yesterday.


at the people who are in control

You see there!  Even the Blockstream shills admit that Blockstream is "in control"  I thought the distributed users/miners were in control?  Blockstream believes they are "in control".  This is the primary reason Blockstream is fucked up and people need to stand up and resist now.  Even if you just make one post, do fucking SOMETHING.  Sitting there like a lamb is the only thing that assures your slaughter.

Yea, the master troll in action again. So you saying the users/miners should be in control of the coding and developing? How fucked up would that be, if the users and miners were in control of programming the code. If I were getting paid to shill for Blockstream, I would probably not be able to afford a McDonald burger with my post history. ^LoL^

Whoever has the best code, will have the users/miners support, or that is the theory.... Lately the people with the most money to spam the network and to use backdoors <ASICBOOST> seem to control the consensus. ^grrrrrr^

I see you are hesitant to do the person2person trading, so I will give you some tips that were given to me. First, *Meet in a public place, where there are CCTV cameras / *Second, Go with a friend or friends. / *Third, Start with small amounts, until you have built a good trust relationship with the other person.

This has worked for me in the past, and also steered me towards some good friendships with interesting new people.

Usually BitCasino staff is quick to defend accusations against them, and in most cases they give good proof that these accusations are wrong or misguided. I am not a very active gambler on their site, but my experience with them has been good so far. ^smile^

I think their 24/7 support within the game is good and they resolved most of the issues I have had before. I cannot comment on the provably fair games or the house edge, because I am not qualified and experienced enough to do that.

Let's hope they comment soon and this gets resolved in a professional manner.
11565  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gavin Andresen: stay away from Blockstream, Greg and Samson are toxic trolls. on: May 04, 2017, 06:37:56 AM
Gavin had his chance to be a Lead Developer and then he could not handle it and left. Now he wants to throw stones at the people who are in control and he even tried to take them down with XT and that failed miserably. When that did not work, he teamed up with BU to try another angle and that is looking bad too. < poor coding and bad flaws >

So if you cannot beat them with your code, try attacking them personally. ^Ooooooo^
11566  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's going on with BTC transaction times?? on: May 04, 2017, 06:28:24 AM
I hope the spammer's money ran out and that it will be the end of these silly spam attacks or could it be that they are using the spam budget now, to fund the $500 000 bounty to bribe the miners?  Tongue At some point in time the budget for these spam attacks must reach a point where it cannot be sustainable to do it anymore and the gains from doing this will outweigh the advantages of doing this. ^smile^
11567  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Save the Chain! Whale puts $500,000 Bounty up for grabs to miners on: May 04, 2017, 06:20:22 AM
Ok, It looks like the mindset is as follows : If we cannot convince them that BU is the best scaling solution, we might be able to buy their support. So let's throw more money at the problem and see if they will fall for that. This is turning into a 3 ring circus show. ^lol^

Take a guess who is the clowns. ^hmmmmm^
11568  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: WTF@BTC transaction fee? on: May 04, 2017, 06:13:47 AM
It's fucking insane.

Fucking idiot developers, from what I read above.

Do not believe everything you read, jonald_fyookball in all probability is a paid shill for BU and will do anything to discredit the current developers. ^grrrrrrr^

The story behind the story is that the Blockchain is spammed by some unknown entity and this is pushing up the fees. Yes, if the Block size were bigger this might have less of an impact, but with bigger blocks we will never scale to the level that is needed to accommodate large mainstream adoption.

The Core developers have seen this and they are trying to get SegWit and LN accepted to address these problems. BU is doing their best to stop them. ^hmf^
11569  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: With the price increase, again, should we consider moving from BTC to mBTC? on: May 04, 2017, 06:04:26 AM
Most wallets make provision for Fiat values that are converted to BTC for you, so this is not really a issue. We have introduced a token system at our bar, to bypass Bitcoin problems and micro transactions. You buy X amount of tokens on entry and you get 1 or 2 beers for free. < this usually encourage people to adopt Bitcoin >

At the end of the evening, you cash the tokens out at the value that you bought it for. < It is written on the token page >

You have to make alternative plans to deal with volatility and transactions delays. ^smile^
11570  Economy / Speculation / Re: FOMO IS REAL on: May 03, 2017, 06:47:55 AM
I doubt that FOMO is driving these price increases at the moment. I think the relaxed attitude from the Japanese regulators towards Bitcoin and the institutional acceptance of Bitcoin has sparked a huge influx of new capital into Bitcoin and this is also pushing merchant adoption.

We have seen big retailers accepting Bitcoin in Japan and with Bitcoin banners everywhere and regulators being Bitcoin friendly, we will see much higher trade volumes on their exchanges.

There has also been several new applications for new Bitcoin exchanges, and that is showing you that interest in Bitcoin is rising significantly in Japan. ^smile^
11571  Economy / Economics / Re: US Dollar Collapsing on: May 03, 2017, 06:14:15 AM
The US government should start buying Bitcoin while it is still relatively cheap and then hoard it for a few years. In the near future people will use the US Dollar to wipe their ass and use toilet paper as a currency at the rate at which the dollar is losing it's value.

The Chinese has become the economic capital of the world, while the US has become the military giant built on huge debt. Let's see if Trump can turn this around and rescue the US Dollar and the US economy. ^hmf^
11572  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: PSA: **WARNING** ACTIVE PHISHING CAMPAIGN AGAINST BitcoinTalk and BTC-e USERS on: May 03, 2017, 05:59:22 AM
No matter what these people are doing < definition is not that important > it should be noted that there are active attempts by someone to steal our coins from many platforms. Change your passwords regularly and do not re-use the same passwords for all the different services.

Thanks OP, for giving everyone a early warning about this. ^smile^
11573  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Girl gets raided by police looking for bitcoins on: May 03, 2017, 05:47:59 AM
Ok, She will be charged with money laundering and tax evasion and if they are lucky and they found some evidence that it  is related to drugs, then she might be brought with drug charges too. Then some of the police officers will be charged for stealing some of the coins, because we know the story already. ^smile^

The focus should not be on why she was raided, but rather how Bitcoin was used to catch criminals and if Bitcoin can be used to hunt people down that are innocent of any crime. < should it be as anonymous as cash >
11574  Economy / Exchanges / Re: How many fee do you usually buy and sell bitcoin and ecurrency? on: May 03, 2017, 05:33:44 AM
My opinion on these 3rd party fees will probably be biased from a consumer perspective, but I feel that 3rd party services are counter productive in promoting Bitcoin as a cheaper alternative than banks and other payment options. They only see Bitcoin as a commodity and not as a currency.

The third world countries are already raped by remittance service fees and this is slowly happening with Bitcoin with the introduction of high fees charged by third party services.

In the future, when fees increase too much, people will start bypassing these services and start buying P2P to avoid it.
11575  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as the currency of the future? on: May 03, 2017, 05:25:28 AM
The price is definitely being influenced by the amount of people that adopt the technology and creates a demand for the currency/commodity. The higher the adoption = higher price. https://medium.com/@mcasey0827/speculative-bitcoin-adoption-price-theory-2eed48ecf7da

Hope this will help you understand the evolution of the technology over time with adoption. ^smile^
11576  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto's stack on: May 03, 2017, 05:17:03 AM
but the question is where are those coins now?

Why do you want to know? It is none of your damn business.

Are you planning on stealing them?

? ? ? i really like bitcoin and i like learning about its past and i am really curious to know if satoshi still has them or he ended up selling them when they were 5$ because if i was him i would have been really tempted to sell 1M btc at 10 or 5 dollars it would have been a tough decision to make

That is just the thing, back in those days most of the transactions being done, were only experimental and you could not really buy something with it at the time. I think Lazlo's Pizza's was the actual first transaction where the general public realized that you can buy something with it. < there might be others, but it is not that well known >

His coins has not shown any transactions, where it went from one Bitcoin address to another, but we know he tested it with Finney. ^smile^
11577  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Crowdfunding for nude photos/videos on: May 02, 2017, 07:36:31 AM
Titforbit, nakebitcoin are all down. I wonder why. Was it abused or something.?  Stuff like this should be documented for future reference

Sites like these needs a lot of marketing to survive and it is targeted to a specific group, so this makes it even more difficult.  Titforbit Domain registration Expired on: 29-Sep-13, if we talking about the same site. You have to hope that there are enough people currently in Bitcoin, interested in this type of thing and if this is good enough that it might go viral and attract more non-bitcoiners.

You can add other payment options, but that will add a whole new complexity to this. ^hmmmmm^
11578  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bringing a Trading Card Game into Bitcoin World on: May 02, 2017, 07:00:42 AM
http://www.augmentorsgame.com/ are going to blow all competition from this scene, because their idea is really innovative and different from the rest. I think most people leave the trading card scene, because the concept gets boring after a while, but http://www.augmentorsgame.com/ adds a whole new type of game play, that makes it more exiting to play.

200 registered players are really not a lot, if you compare that to the bigger players in this scene. ^smile^
11579  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is going on with Bitcoin? Satoshi Nakamoto on: May 02, 2017, 06:41:01 AM
Guys, I'm Satoshi.

I did not create Bitcoin to be anonymous all my life.

If all goes well, it would be a pleasure to present myself, in all its context, and defend Bitcoin, and its principles.

Today I am here, maybe tomorrow in Japan and another day in Spain.

Thank you all, guys, thank you very much.

Satoshi Nakamoto.

We are all Satoshi now, because this experiment was given to the people and the real Satoshi has left the scene. Until we see a signed message in his early coins or we see some of those coins linked to him being moved, we will just accept that he still wants to stay anonymous.

A message on a newbie account on a public forum claiming to be Satoshi means nothing to us and is being seen as pure trolling. ^heh^
11580  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Enforcing Transparency and Accountability through Cryptocurrencies on: May 02, 2017, 06:29:48 AM
That level of authenticity will require more data and it will bloat the Blockchain, causing even more problems. Why not use some off-chain service to manage that? You could also change the way money is being transferred between the services or people that are being paid.

Assign Bitcoin addresses to each role player in this project and then send this information out to the public. These people can use mixer services to transfer their payment to their own addresses to protect their financial privacy. This way, you see how much money goes towards what entity in the project. ^smile^
