i think that graph is missing a phase, the limbo/stall pahse, which apaprently can be very long, and it seems our case right now, recent swings are only normal fluctuation i would not call these bear trap or whatever you want

xmr because it offer something and dash(are we talking about x11 dash?), and doge because it started a new era

can we do 0.14 for legendary and 0.15 for stuff, seeing how for the time being, there is still the limit?
12544  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin as a Retirement Account on: August 13, 2015, 06:49:20 AM
im broke and unemployed for 20 years no retirement for me lol

you must be rich or someone else is feeding you, in this case maybe you can take advantage of his inheritance if he want you as a heir

or just try to earn even a single bitcoin, in a far distant future, it may be enough to do a retirement
12545  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are the downsides to 8MB blocks? on: August 13, 2015, 06:45:41 AM
8MB per 10 minutes is about 13.6 KB/s. What was the problem again?

Not that I think that simply increasing the block size limit to 8MB is a good solution (I'd rather see something more dynamic) but if 13.6 KB/s is actually a problem, maybe you should fix your internet, rather than debate over Bitcoin.

Miners cant wait 10 minutes to have their newly mined block trasfered to the next node.

But they can wait 1.25 minutes to have their newly mined block trasfered to the next node?

i think not, ideally the lower the better so if we assume few seconds of waiting you end already in x600(1 seconds of waiting) of 13.6 KB/s, which is around 8 MB/s and it is not small at all for many...
12546  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: pleas is there anyway to earn bitcoins without faucets i have 13 $ btc on: August 13, 2015, 06:42:02 AM
besides the standard way for earning, which may be full already, like signature campaign, i think if you have the skill to do small games that may be seen as a good game, you can earn a lot, maybe do it in a way that only bitcoin can be used for payments

i was thinking that there should be a platform where developers sell their game/software for bitcoin only
12547  Economy / Economics / Re: Can bitcoin really save Greece? on: August 13, 2015, 06:40:19 AM
Greece has a population of 11 million. Bitcoin can handle at most 500,000 transactions per day. This means if Greece adopts bitcoin then less than 5% of the Greek population can do a single transaction per day

well it's like they are going to spend bitcoin simultaneously, so i don't think your estimation is correct, also i'm sure that some "seconds" are less ful than other, if someone want to perform a spending he can choose a time of the day where there are less TX/sec

i think this should be integrate in the core, something that can tell you the TX per second in an exact moment, so we can distribute better the TX volume
12548  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do you use Bitcoin? A report to determine it's competitive advantages. on: August 13, 2015, 06:37:37 AM
decentralization isn't a tangible advantage, i mean there is not much difference between a centralized system and decentralized one, but i still like to have 100% freedom, which you can have in some bank too

i voted for anonimity and low fee, but the latter will not last forever if we need to go against spam and rise the fee in the future
12549  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can you use Bitcoin and access Bitcointalk freely without using a VPN? on: August 13, 2015, 06:35:36 AM
yes, I can, Asia, bitcointalk.org isn't a negatif site, our goverment just blocked negatif sites such as pornography. it's not allowed in my country.

I wish the USA blocked pornography.

and why? it isn't a illegal thing like some other countries believe, pretty stupid to ban something which has to do with everyone day living

taboo like that does not exist anymore, and for a good damn reason

we should stop here because other threads got already banned:

 Roll Eyes

Isn't XT Gavin's proposal?

Gavin and Mike Hearn are the main people, yes. why?

(the forum is run by someone who does not like XT)
https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/discussion-of-bitcoin-xt-banned-from-bitcoin-subreddit/

what i find silly is that their only problem with XT isn't Xt per se, but they only hate the fact that it is done in a centralized way, because proposed from one man only, they do not want to feel controlled by one guy, this is their primarely concern

because a part from this they have no reason to go against XT, really...
12551  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It's nonsense to compare bitcoin's tps with Visa/Mastercard/Paypal on: August 13, 2015, 06:30:49 AM
i doubt that every of their transaction are doen internally, there must be a good portion which reflect the reality of their volume of transaction per day, surely bitcoin can not stop here, because adoption is no where near complete

bitcoin need to expand further, does not matter much if you want to measure it with TX volume or something else
12552  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's the most interesting altcoin you've ever heard of? on: August 13, 2015, 06:23:51 AM
only those altcoin that have anonimity, fully anonimity, interest me, but i prefer if in the future this is integrated in bitcoin too, maybe not directly, but via sidechain or something else

i'm looking forward for now for zerocoin and darkwallet, another altcoin that interested me in the past was cryptonite with its mini-blockchain feature

the problem is that they seems all died now, so no matter what they offer if it can not be used...

i've noticed that the more we go the more distributed the hashrate seems, because i remember that only f2pool an antpool were leading the hashpower, but it appear that chinese are preventing purposely the 51% to be a reality, this is good
12554  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is your trading strategy? on: August 13, 2015, 05:46:01 AM
don't trade for a year!

nearly, I followed this strategy  Tongue

So youre telling me not trading at all and holding is good!

Damn, only if everyone knew about this strategy everyone would be profitable.. no but really though I think holding btc is the best way to go.

the bad thing about this is that if everyone will do it, the price will not move at all, a bit like the condition we have right now, we the market is moving very slowly

i think that those will low amount should hold and nothing else, but the other with a bigger amount should trade

and everyone should use their coins regardless of the price, if they need something that is better purchased with bitcoin
12555  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: how much can you make weekly? on: August 13, 2015, 05:43:45 AM

california is just too expensive to live.

the rent cost for a average area is $1,300- almost 2,000 depending on how many rooms. The living expense also is not the same, some people actually are forced to go to soup kitchens to pick up extra food.

Since they dont entirely qualify for ebt cards aka food stamps.


so I think living in California wouldn't be easy for all who have to rent out unless they already own a house there so they could ease up a bit regarding the $1,300- almost 2,000 you mentioned

It soo expensive,
in Indonesia you can rent a room, with only $ 400 per year, it was very cheap
are you serious? Dude, do you know if i could move to indonesia? Cheesy
Here in philippines you can rent a room with only 0.1 btc per month, and its only 1.2btc per year, so cheap than indonesia so you can went here and rent a room. LOL Cheesy

what kind of room we are talking about? those room with cockroaches and all sort of unimaginable animal inside it, without hot water and so on?

and anyway i should also love the place first of all before even bothering at looking at the price...substantially one can live with $500 per month(with renting or akin stuff) if he is alone and does not expect too much from his life


Such a room is at least $400 dollars per month here in Canada, Amph. And you're looking at at least $10/day for food if you don't eat a lot and eat cheap stuff. So that's at least $700/month, assuming you don't buy shampoo, toilet paper, clothing and stuff like that.

700 sound about right but you can actually live with less if you save something on foods, by eating less meat which is expensive and maybe a more vegan foods like legumes which is far cheaper
$ 700 dollars just for eat and rent room in 1 month ? Canada really a country that has a high cost of living that.  Tongue
I am grateful to live in Indonesia, all of which are still completely cheap with $ 700 in Indonesia you can eat well in a month and had a big room.  Smiley

yes it's expensive, but i presume their revenue is also greater than indonesia, so the things will be paired well, i'm not into much in changing my living location just to be able to save more, but i can do that to earn more

i'm assuming that in indonesia you also recieve less money if you can pay much less
12556  Other / Off-topic / Re: Gigantic explosion at Bitcoin mining farm in Tianjin China on: August 12, 2015, 07:56:55 PM
Is this account hacked or bought? Bitcoinpro is a Hero Member. Can I sense foul play? I haven't seen many Hero Members making crappy threads like this, something seems a little off.

if it is, it was hacked in 2013, notice the first post is in 2011 and the second in 2013, since then his style is the same, too hard to know for sure...

but the title is anyway misleading, this wasn't a mining farm...
12557  Economy / Exchanges / Re: well this is a bad news on: August 12, 2015, 06:46:59 PM
Yes, everyone is aware of the license. No, it is not that big of a deal unless you think that a lot of users are based in New York which I doubt. Besides, Americans have chosen their idiotic government. Now they have to deal with it.


Go to Switzerland and enjoy your life.

U didn't understand the whole story.New york is the beginning,slowly the whole population will be penalized for using bitcoin.Consider a major economy;in lieu of bitcoin exchange moving out of the bitcoin game lessens its value.I would consider moving to the blockchain now and the related projects associated with blockchain technology.

not the whole population, this isn't true, because there are countries already, which are pro bitcoin, like canada and japan, you will not see, ever, a situation where every countries will be against bitcoin

thank god we haven't a single government that is controlling the entire world, at least seen from this point, the world is decentralized enough...
12558  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's up with all these people switching to BitcoinXT? on: August 12, 2015, 06:44:34 PM
I don't even know what the hell Bitcoin XT is? Probably a new Bitcoin? Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm lost in space  Huh

Its an altcoin... and who are all of these people switching??

technically it's only the future upgrade of bitcoin core, not really an altcoin

i think people want to try it out, while supporting the idea of a bigger tx limit to allow more transaction per seconds, which is needed and inevitable

i can't understand really the concern about it, while chinese miners have their concern that may be seen as a good concern, normal users should not be against it ever, because they have no reason at all, besides being an hater for the lulz
12559  Economy / Speculation / Re: About to pop. on: August 12, 2015, 04:10:20 PM
normal market activity nothing more or less, until this thing is ready to skyrocket seriously, all these kind of stuff you're seeing in the market will be common from time to time

in the end we are alwasy holding the same old position, basically every new pump is destroyed in part, by a new dump, so nothing is really happen

i would call it zero sum trade, but slightly in favor of the pumpers
12560  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is crashing. Why? :( on: August 12, 2015, 04:04:47 PM
Ethereum might have something to do with it.

at best it should rise , because for helping ethereum people should buy btc first, and then send those to etherum, so in th first place there should be a increase and then a possible crush,

but the entity of those two element would be very insignificant, at this point the big money for ethereum are done, long time ago

That's what YOU think. Look, the market disagrees with you. Maybe you're...Wrong?

or maybe the cause it's totally different? it's not like there is only ethereum that can cause p&d for bitcoin

i simply think that demand is lower and for this reason the price crushed, there is no need to think about conspiracy or whatever other crap complicated reason
