With fees this high BTC becomes useless for trading, testing or moving around so i guess when people leave then they
won't come back ! Once ripped off, twice shy

Stuff the miners and the developers because it's not hard to add code to limit the maximum fees
and having 20,000 full nodes is barking mad anyway.

Don't worry because they charge too much when you transfer real notes (3.99%) and if you buy BTC they
give you a bad exchange rate and i bet the "$10 free coins if you spend $100" caught your eye but it's a scam and
they don't pay up and contacting them by email won't do you no good afterwards.

COINBASE PLEASE CONTACT ME OR POST HERE IF THIS IS NOT TRUE

The site keeps have "Technical problems" during spikes as they try to front run trades and they might
give you a public address for your BTC (None at all for ETH) but if you later make a check you will see
that none of your coins are on the block-chain so they have you by the balls.

I won't plug anyone here but i will tell you to steer well clear, pass it on
1183  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buying Drugs with Bitcoin ? on: December 28, 2017, 10:20:53 PM
I bought some oxy and cokes from darknet. Bitcoin was the only mode of payment there.

Yes and you can even get ganja posted to your door but they were the old days because
no self respecting rastaman is going to pay $45 in transaction fees and the girls performing
sexual plays for punters live over the internet with special requests are also having to switch
payment methods too.

These people that account for real spending and not just trading digits might not come back if they
leave so maybe we need to then change the name of BitCoin to "Hens Teeth" instead

Really we are not on a good road, it's broken
1184  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin dip because of the Segwit2X fork? on: December 28, 2017, 10:11:52 PM
This is normal. Bitcoin falls and then it rises back up. No need to panic!
Yes agree that 30% swings are nothing and quite normal but what is not normal is the mega high transactions fees
so now we are sailing in un-chartered waters and Joe public is not going to risk his $200 on this ride if the fees
to move 250 bytes of data is going to cost $45 or more.

Why they might even call it a scam and go for one of other the other coins where fees are only $0.10 because
this casino is too posh for your average man and make no mistake we are all gambling 
1185  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin dip because of the Segwit2X fork? on: December 28, 2017, 09:56:54 PM
by this dip for there is a lot of negative news that are spreading for here people that are lack of knowledge then they are able to think a lot of negativity but for me i may know that someday it may recover and this is normal the price is moving and there is nothing to worry about.

Because you have the "knowledge" then maybe you would like to remind me the last time that transaction fees
were anything even close to being this high and the price recovered because I cannot find it in any charts so
maybe I have not be around quite as long as you.

I am useless at trading and had shares in IBM who had the PC market to themselves and then I jumped
into AOL when the internet really got started with 56k modems so I figure selling Hens Teeth must be
where my skills and potential must lay  Roll Eyes
1186  Economy / Speculation / Re: Hey guys do you think that Bitcoin price will continue decreasing ? on: December 28, 2017, 09:45:50 PM
I think long term (1Y+) the price will increase.  However it is just too volatile to try and time the market right now.  Some people are good at this, I am not, and the vast majority of market times lose their shirts.

Yes i am with you and quite useless trying to understand irrational people when it comes to gambling and thought
the housing market in the UK would crash like ten years ago but i was wrong.

When it comes to coins long term I have the edge because I understand the software architecture and
infrastructure and block-chain, PoW and mining is not going to last the course (pile of shit) and this is why
IOTA is 12 times faster which is nothing to write home about but keep your eyes out for something called
"HashGraph" and any ICO based on that as they come out (Nothing uses it yet)

I have also spotted a freight train coming our way that will make the Crypto-boom-bust look like
nothing but you will have to wait i think about 3-5 years for this to arrive at the station and i have
no intention of "plugin it" until my seat is booked 1st class aboard the train

   
1187  Economy / Speculation / Re: Hey guys do you think that Bitcoin price will continue decreasing ? on: December 28, 2017, 09:27:39 PM
if fees stay this high then you can take it to the bank that prices will drop and since they went up the price of BTC has been
trading sideways so many of the greedy miners and the bankers that own the monopoly needs to think twice if they want to
maintain a market edge.

p.s Please dump B2X ASAP because I want to stack up on the cheap so let me kick off by saying they are scammers, Nazi's
and that its a shitcoin and the code was written in Colbolt 40 years ago
1188  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin dip because of the Segwit2X fork? on: December 28, 2017, 09:16:00 PM
i think because many peoples sell it immediately because the free distributions , but after that he will go up again like BTG

But how do they get the B2X to sell it so quick because no wallets will work with it yet
and it will take weeks to get the nodes up running and tested so how can you sell what
you don't have or am i missing something
1189  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin dip because of the Segwit2X fork? on: December 28, 2017, 09:12:28 PM
The OP asks a good question and i think that people want to buy B2X by selling BTC but the
fee of $40 to shift BTC to the exchange is far to high but really i want people to sell B2X to crash the price
so that i can stack up on the cheap.

We have been "Locked in" in other words and cars are no good if the motorway is broken

1190  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are governments and forks always against bitcoin on: December 28, 2017, 07:00:31 PM
Well the government has to pretend it is trying to protect us from scammers like the ones
that offer "Virtual free transactions" fees in the white paper and then buy up the miners
and jack the fees up to $45.00 a pop.

Segwit2X is a fork and will remind these scam miners not to try blackmailing customers
again and is about taking our money back from the government and the bankers who have
moved in on Bitcoin

1191  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Whats gone wrong with the price of BTC on: December 28, 2017, 06:58:30 PM
I agree because bitcoin is not stable on going up, the value or the price of it is volatile so always expect a drastic change in price. I know all of us knows this, it's just that we keep on asking the reasons why the price of it goes upward and goes downward after some time.

But for anything to be called a currency or money it needs to have a stable price to facilitate the exchange of goods
for buyers and sellers alike and being a digital currency it should be cheap and fast.

All crypto's brake two of these rules but BTC brakes all three rules with silly transaction prices and is the number one
worse when it comes to inflation because the money supply doubles on each fork so hopefully Segwit2X takes a
hammering when it opens, people sell and then i intend on taking the advise of people here that talk about buying
on the dip when prices drop.

They had big plans for Lightning too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYHFrf5ci_g
I want none of that because these hubs are banks and if BTC cannot provide a full service
at the micro-transaction level (Anything less than $1000 today) as well as $60,000 then it has
grown too big for it boots and it's time to get out.
1192  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do I pull my money from exchanges for the fork? on: December 28, 2017, 06:33:09 PM
It is always best to have the keys for wherever your bitcoin is stored. Most exchanges will add the forked coins.

Yes but i hear that they charge a fee or might want your private key and making a new wallet and moving
your BTC back into it after you have exposed your private key may cost $45 in transaction fees.

Looks like BTC is becoming un trade-able with these fees that started the year at a few cents so
that's got to pull the price down or pop the bubble if you ask me

1193  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about the future of BTC when fees increase? on: December 28, 2017, 06:24:53 PM
The need to fix fees like yesterday and stop trying to blackmail us or people like me
will be screaming to the public who has not arrived yet to dabble with his $100 only
to find it costs $45 per transaction

When shit flys it will also affect the other alt-coins and its BTC that gone rouge and
not the others.

Segwit2x is a breath of fresh air and I will fully back them because I bend over for no one
and did not change the rules or the game with BTC and the mejia has been paid to look
the other way about fees but the news is leaking out all over the place so fix it or go bust
1194  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitstamp freezes withdrawals (again) on: December 28, 2017, 05:41:08 PM
Coinbase is up to it's dirty tricks again I bet and just who was it that paid for
Bit-Coin gold to get DDOSed so if this happens with B2X then a pattern has
started to emerge and the police should be called in.

We need to take our money back from these brokers and thieving monopoly of
miners charging $45 and remind them all who the boss is. 

Please anyone name and shame anyone that uses excuses to stop you doing
what you want with your own money and lets make sure it goes public
1195  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: https://b2x-segwit.io/ - Fake? on: December 28, 2017, 05:33:45 PM
Coinbase and miners who are ripping us off would like you to think it is fake but it is real
and two days ago hardly anything existed on Youtube about Segwit2x as if the mejia was
running a black-out but today you will find plenty to see.

We need to take "OUR" internet back and we also need to take "OUR" money back and
clearly BTC with it's fees has come off the rails and is in bed with big finance so good look
to the new team with Segwit2x I say and what have I got to loose from these free coins
and I hope most people sell up when they get them because my sinister plan is to buy in
when they go real low and profit from the airdrop that you can bet they will hold back as
a carrot.

1196  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: PROFIT FROM BITCOINS EVERY DAY! on: December 28, 2017, 05:22:32 PM
Contracts on the underground are being sold on the Tor network by add-servers that pays BTC
to people that fake click Pay-Per-Click (PPC) links but you have to ensure that the clicks follow all the
HTTP 302 redirects (Double-click & Co) and that the spyware scripts all get executed from the
same address.

if you want to promote your site then steer clear of add-serves and see the "Brave" web-browser that
uses BAT Coins and offers a built in wallet so that advertisers pay people micro-payments if they
want to receive these adverts instead of middle men that use illegal mean to profit by using bots and
google is happy to help the scam because they get to spy one all our moves.

FYI I don't have BAT coins and would not turn the wallet on in the Brave browser but at least they
have there hands above the table and the project is backed by some good name and I only learned
about this because I am a egg head that tests the security on browser and the Brave Browser scores
top marks and only calls home twice a day if you turn the right options off in setting.

Man de axe you, dem walk in to Ganja-DAX and put me stack into dat machine
but the thing a thing spunks out dees little token but says I and I is smart man
and had made thirty bucks you see.

So cool I and I heads to nice white woman at cash out desk and the woman
starts talking to dee I bout $45 transactions fees but me not touch her man and
I walked out dem door with $15 missing from me pocket.

Chant down Babylon, me no go back dem cash machine.

1198  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Whats gone wrong with the price of BTC on: December 28, 2017, 04:22:28 PM
BTC prices will fluctuate with the market, which is normal, I think, in the long run, its price will continue to rise.

Yes i bet the tulip farmers were saying that back in 1634 because they had bad weeks too
but since we are talking about a currency apparently then can you show me any currency
who's purchasing power has gone up more than 200% in a year ?

Weeds kill flowers and fees will kill BTC before we get to the crazy highs of tulip mania that
puts BTC at about $250,000 a coin 
1199  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Lightning Network VS SegWit2Mb(S2X) on: December 28, 2017, 04:13:38 PM

By increasing the blocksize to an amount high enough to be able to deal with VISA's transactional volume (and we are looking at 25k transacions per second only at VISA, if Bitcoin has to be a global currency usable for everyday-tasks, we need much more) you would never be able to get around centralizing the network due the nodes being handled to datacenters, which are corporations, which are ultimately controlled easily by governments. You are handling control at layer 0.

With LN, everything happens at layer 1, layer 0 is still a decentralized network of nodes.

This is why BCash is dead and is not real competition when it comes to the idea of scaling Bitcoin.
Playing with block sizes or timing is not the answer and it comes down to having more and more data all being stuffed
into a database that is already 200gb in size and then trying to distribute this to 20,000 machines and keep them all in
sync.

Trouble is you cannot just jump to the top of block to calculate the value of a wallet and you have to go back down
the chain (Link list of block headers) and check all the history of each coin or part coin in the wallet to decide if the
wallet has the money to spend. Processing 200gb of data is bad and it will only get much worse.

Repeat this 20,000 times you see why it costs 90KWH of electric just to process 250 bytes of data

BLOCK-CHAIN DOES NOT SCALE and having a two tear system using lighting and hubs (Banks) giving out IOU's
is not the answer and it will create more trouble than it solves.

Read up on IOTA Tangle or better still HashGraph and do not support CPU wars, silly high fees or PoW because from
a programmers perspective it is a joke and the crypto guys have taken over the board-room and are trying to design
systems that they know nothing about and this is why BTC is slow.

Yes i am sure I could come up with a few radical fixes using coordinators and a tree type structure for the mass of
data (200gb just now) and split it up by node groups but it would be better to start again from scratch and just
learn from the mess Mr "s-m"  has feed to the world.


1200  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do I pull my money from exchanges for the fork? on: December 28, 2017, 03:56:16 PM
B2x is a pile of crap though, seriously.

Why is that since it's a copy of the original open source code used on BTC with some tweaks to make it better ?

The miners here have been taking the piss with fees and we are fighting back so i hope you didn't spend too
much on all that mining equipment just to play CPU Wars

Fact is as it has been implemented the whole protocol is shit and others are moving away from it and
you should do some research on IOTA (Not fantastic, but better) or study up on HashGraph not that it is
being used yet by any ICO

Please come back and debate if you want to understand whats inside these slot machines instead of being
lead by blind greed
