yeah and i believe it is the first reason why there is a higher % of lost coins there, probably because the more ancient and offer the possibility to retrieve your private key as well as dumping a new one fairly easy

personally i don't use it i like core more
12982  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Coinbase CEO: Bitcoin to surpass the dollar as reserve currency within 15 years on: July 25, 2015, 04:41:00 PM
uhm those ceo are not very original aren't they , everyone is just repeating what satoshi has predicted in the past, remember the famous quote, 6 years are passed so 14 remained, and guess what 14 is between 10 and 15....
12983  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's your biggest problem with Bitcoin on: July 25, 2015, 04:31:13 PM
Buying bitcoins is too hard for me. (I live in Iran)

try to acquire it instead, via signature or mining if your electricity is not expensive, it's also a much better way then simply buying, more anonimity for you

i received this yesterday, forgot to mention, don't know if it's fake  and i'm the only one receiving it or it's real, it's a deadline for your claim

12985  Economy / Services / Re: How many people would be interested in getting paid for sign ups on: July 25, 2015, 01:46:40 PM
if it require too much info, phone alone is too much, than anything below 5 is already low , what about is this website? and i hope the payment is made directly in bitcoin, i don't want fiat garbage
12986  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you like best about bitcoin? on: July 25, 2015, 01:41:16 PM
Best thing about bitcoin is its decentralisation, transparency, and the most important is that it is not controlled by any government or any single entity but also it is easy to transfer, convinent, and time saving.....

transparency certainly isn't among the best part of bitcoin, you can't for example know who are those that hold 100k, the so called early adopters, but this is the pack that come with the fact that bitcoin is 50% anon
12987  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Questions about mining bitcoin on: July 25, 2015, 01:36:11 PM
Here questions

1. any use of the best equipment and longer lifetime and efficiency
- all 3 of those compines have solid reps, I have bought bitmain products, all of them have been running solid, my S1's running solid for a year and a half straight.  

2-I watch a difference in the price Is price of the device depends on the hash rate or other factors.
I don't get your questoin.. coinwarz.com

3-how many bitcoin can i mine by this deceive cointerra or Bitmain or spondoolies  and how calculate amount of bitcoin can i get from any device
coinwarz.com will answer this.

4-bitcoin amount be specific amount per day does increase or decrease difficulty
coinwarz.com hehe

5- this machine work 24 hour or what  and must be use additional Cooling fan as example
no extra fans are required for these units, I HIGHLY stress they should be in a low dust area.  Or put panty hose over them and clean the panty hose every day.

6-Are there certain characteristics of the laptop or desktop device user with bitcoin mine devices
these all have controls built int you don't need your laptop or desktop to control them only to set them up.



STORE YOUR PRIVATE KEYS OFFLINE FOR THE LOVE OF BABY SATOSHI


how i calculate amount of bitcoin pre day with this site coinwarz.com?Huh

use another calculator, which does not include altcoin, this simply calculator work better https://alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator

anyway you should focus on only two device, which are efficient, like s3 and s5, s4 may be ok too the other cannot compete

nice and thank you  man for this site is good

about s4 you mean bitman machine if right what is best machine whit bitman

and about this machine good or what ??

http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/products/sp35-yukon-power-shipping-from-stock

yeah bitman

that miners that you linked isn't good at all too heavy in cost, with the same price you can buy 5 S5(used), which have better hashrate(1155 x 5 vs 5.5) and lower consumption(590 x 5 vs 3600)
12988  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Where did the additional 70PH come from? on: July 25, 2015, 01:33:51 PM
that's 20% increase, if everyone of those big pool add a small % they can reach that amount easily, so my guess is that each of those pool added something, i doubt a signle entity added the whole 75 peta...
12989  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Cost of Bitcointalk Accounts. on: July 25, 2015, 01:31:23 PM
legendary is assigned at random from 850 activity if i'm not mistaken, but legendary is useless it cost too much and it does not offer anything over hero

Agree with you. In my eyes, the best strategy is to buy a Senior Account with around 450 activity. It is cheaper than a hero account and you can reach Hero rank within a month.
IMHO no one will be stupid to sell that account approaching to hero level within one month. The value of the account will be double within a month.

well not really, remember that the activity is very important a senior with 450 isn't the same thing as a senior with 250, the cost is proportional to its activity so waiting for that account to become hero is in part a waste of time
12990  Economy / Speculation / Re: Good old times could be back soon on: July 25, 2015, 11:40:35 AM
Those are nice charts.  I thought the defeat of the bearwhale at 300 (in Oct?) would set a new bottom, but no luck.  I am still optimistic about bitcoin, but seriously doubt that boom times of the run up to 1000 will be back any time soon.

I hope I'm wrong, and that the title of your thread is right on!

Good Luck!

you're not wrong. it's actually nice to see that there are still realistic people here that look at facts, instead of living in a fantasy world regarding the bitcoin price. we just need patience. that's all. $1000 is a matter of years before we see it again.

The USD will crash this year before september 23. Bitcoin should be well over 1000 by october 2015.

if usd crash bitcoin will be over 10k in no time not just over 1k, and usd will not crash anytime soon, so i don't know what you are talking about with that random september 23
12991  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: July 25, 2015, 11:06:49 AM
I would say half btc half gold.

Well i would say investing 80/20
80% investing in bitcoin, as it is more dynamic cryptocurrency and 20% gold or none.
Because the gold price is dropping dramatically.

Ah i would just go with 60% gold an 40% bitcoin. Gold can to to 6000$ easily, but bitcoin can go to 100,000$ easily, so bitcoin is a better investment, yet you wanna hold some gold too just for safety.

Bitcoin is a bit volatile.

usually it is high % in a safe investments and low in a risk one like bitcoin,

but since i don't find bitcoin so risky, i would go with a high % for bitcoin, at least 66% and less in gold or silver or soemthing else, why is everyone thinking only about gold as an alternative investment is beyond me..
12992  Other / Off-topic / Re: How many Bitcoins are lost forever? on: July 25, 2015, 11:04:59 AM
Can satoshi or the main of the bitcoin who made it, can he decide to recover the lost bitcoins that people lost them.

no there is no bitcoin CEO, and satoshi wasn't a ceo of bitcoin either, it always based on consensus

you can't go there and add a random amount to the supply just to retrieve those lost coins(which are actually a good thing for the future value), i'm not saying that it cannot be done, i'm saying that miners in primis should be favorable to it, and i doubt they are...
12993  Economy / Economics / Re: What can greece central bank do? on: July 25, 2015, 10:59:42 AM
Guys what do you think should greece must be kicked out from eu or should stay there for a long time

it should be kicked out already, there is no need to drag this farce again for another 3 years with another big waste of 80B loan from central bank that will not cover ever their 350B of debts, that are still rising

as i don't believe that the greece Gov will be able to reduce the debt of 270(350-80) in only 3 years
12994  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is the Blocksize Debate Potentially Catastrophic to Bitcoin? on: July 25, 2015, 10:57:24 AM
i didn't follow the last news about the TX debate, it is confirmed, it will be 8mb in the end, everyone is ok with that? especially chinese, that are known for changing their mind for stupid reasons...
12995  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: July 25, 2015, 10:55:37 AM
If you save money that money doesnt do anyting they just are hold there
If you invest you will have ups and down and profit

actually you will lose money if you save and nothing else, especially if you save for long term, because fiat are subject to hyper inflation , this mean that after only 3-5 years you will buy many less things with the same amount

so saving is bad if you save fiat, not if you save bitcoin which has huge potential to rise in price
Yeah bitcoin have a big chance to increase its price so its better to keep your money by converting it into bitcoins. These can help your money grow and not lose any single USD or what so ever currency.

Fiat inflation is close to 8% /year worldwide average, according to shadowstats (because we know that the offcial gov numbers are lies)

Bitcoin's inflation is way less (price inflation according to keynesians) , just check advertising costs, they all are going down.

https://a-ads.com/stats

So we got real deflation in BTC and big inflation in fiat!

which mean a 40% loss in only 5 years, if you save 10k under your pillow for example, in 5 years you will lose 4k a fucking great amount, no banks interest can cover that with their tiny 1% per year

there is a reaosn they give you only 1-2% because they are aware of the stupid high inflation of fiat money, on the other end bitcoin inflaation will be almost zero beyond 2024, so only another 8 years of small inflation for bitcoin
12996  Economy / Speculation / Re: How many bitcoins do I need to retire in 20 years? on: July 25, 2015, 10:52:51 AM
the supply and demand isnt affecting at the moment the price ,all days bitcoins changes hands ,the new users that get inside are very small yet but keep growing the number of new bitcoiners soo it can boom anytime soo around 500 bitcoins would make a good retirement on the next years

Don't you think 500 bitcoins is too much. I mean don't look at the current value, imagine about the future value like may be 4k or $5k then 100 bitcoins would be enough at the retirement age. My goal is to have atleast 100 bitcoins and I m done.

I dont think so. 500 bitcoin is a good amount, because you can't predict the future. And for people who are bored to stay longer enough to face its peak I think 500 is good.

100bitcoin no matter how much price do you want and you are done from bitcoin? Dont make a wrong move dude, reconsidering it again when you hit 100 bitcoins  Grin

You can't predict the future but you can have realistic expectations of it, and Bitcoin should be able to deliver big gains considering how things are moving. Andreas Antonopoulous is convinced that Western Union will get literally killed by Bitcoin, this alone should make you think.

Of course 500 BTC would be ideal, but who has the money to invest in 500 BTC? Certainly not me.
this is why 500 is not ideal, it an amount too big for anyone that believe in bitcoin let alone for those that have a low trust on the future of bitcoin, from 10 to 100 might be a better target
If it was few year before then 500 Bitcoins could be easily to own.
AS the price was very cheap on that time.

well that's another story, i'm sure OP isn't an early adopter otherwise he would not have brought up this thread in the first place
12997  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoins Price be manipulated like Gold is? on: July 25, 2015, 09:52:54 AM
Bitcoin is far easier to take possession of when compared to gold.
Honestly this is the only scary thing, the only true reason we need the price to increase is that by the time the banks get scared it is too expensive for them to fuck it up. I somewhat see price as a weird way of securing the network form banks.

What if someone sold their 1000000 stack of bitcoins to a central bank when they still was worthless?

not much will change if a big amount is controlled by one person or by a bank, it's always centralized, also that bank will probably start to sell those bitcoin for profit, since they can not use those coin
12998  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: WOULD LOVE TO LEND OTHERS ;) HELP REQUIRED ! on: July 25, 2015, 09:50:10 AM
you can't run here a good business based on loan with decent collateral, the only good collateral that they will ever offer might be their account, and at least it is something like legendary with plenty of trust it will not cover more than 1 btc

if you want to run something where you lend plenty of bitcoin, it's better to use btjam or like you said creating your own business
12999  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Companies are Experimenting With BTC Blockchain & They Won't Build Their Own on: July 25, 2015, 09:45:58 AM
What's to stop a company from just creating a BTC clone altcoin and premining every coin, and limiting nodes to their own servers? This wouldn't cost the millions of dollars implied, and a company like VISA or Mastercard, for example, would still maintain all the benefits they would be getting through the blockchain.

in fact it's what they are doing(at least what they want to do), but they should make this with infinite supply otherwise they can not do their dirty printing endless

they don't even need mining, they could do it with pos which is better for their business model, it would reset their cost to almost zero
13000  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My criticism of BitCoin on: July 25, 2015, 08:32:42 AM
first point don't work anymore, it's like you say, it is not easy anymore, you need big farm super cheap electricity and a big space, not everyone can do that and there is no wasting resource if you can produce something that has a great value, like bitcoin

they are stolen all the time not becaue bitcoin is insecure, but because average people are incompetente they want everything done in automatic...ridiculous, and "they" can't disable shit, bitcoin is not centralized, fortunately...

unstability it's only related to its adoption, something that will fix itself with time, no need to worry about it
