I still think that vDice might be a lot more popular with lowered/adjustable maximum bet amount. We asked about it couple times and it seems that even this simple change is something hard to implement for vDice team. I stopped betting on vDice when price of ETH crossed $50 - as I can't risk more than $80 (current 0.2210 ETH) in one bet...

Miners should be focusing on mining subsidiary - a reward for mined blocks. Don't forget that this is the main source of income for them. Transaction fees shouldn't be a primary concern for miners anyway.
Additionally, according to bitcoinfees.21.co:
"The fastest and cheapest transaction fee is currently 390 satoshis/byte, shown in green at the top. For the median transaction size of 226 bytes, this results in a fee of 88,140 satoshis."

What's the deal with WAVES?? There has been some good news about WAVES yet the price is going nowhere!! 1. WAVES supposed to have the smart contracts feature implemented by Christmas time!! 2. Burger King Russia launching their own Whopper coin based on WAVES platform!! 3. WAVES supposedly is going to be traded on an exchange out of CHINA!! http://coremedia.info/blockchain-news/item/894-waves-may-come-to-chinaYet the price seems to stay flaccid and steady for the most part with some dips!! It's like being in a room with a super hot naked stripper and you can't get it up!! It's like WAVES is suffering from coke dick!! Har har!! Why is it despite these good news stories WAVES is just flopping around like a limp dick!! I want to hear what other people think about this!! 1. 'Supposed' is the key word here, you know how IT development goes - final implementation is in most cases delivered "Soon™" and no delayed projects are something fairly common. 2. Yeah, we all heard stories about Burger King accepting Bitcoin, Litecoin and now what? Waves? Highly unlikely. 3. Waves 'may' be traded on Chinese exchanges - but apparently, it is not that popular in China...

Do you have any reliable source - some website with professional ICO reviews, site which will give spotlight to new crypto projects we can choose from? I know about http://www.icocountdown.com/ but I want to know if there are some other websites we can use to find info about upcoming ICOs? ICO investing is a risk no matter how good our initial impression is, only time will verify everything.

Really? Guys, you are ridicoulus...
Cloudmining is the perfect hyip in the bitcoin world. lol
Not always, there are some honest bitcoin/altcoin mining projects. The fact that honest cloud mining projects are not exactly the most profitable and often are overshadowed by total scams with ridiculous ROI. Nonetheless, it is always funny to see how newbies think that bitcoin mining is some kind of magical money making machine.

If you want to invest in some pretty, not familiar coins (and not the usual suspect everyone would suggest) I would recommend: -Civic - coins which provide you identity management - Metal - coin backed by serious team with serious goals - Vox - one of the most undervalued coin, if people realize its potential price might go crazy

I knew bitcoin since it was 500 usd , I used to use faucets and collected some 0.01 BTC ( that time was worthless) I sold some If the amount to a SCMER on localbitcoin , I lost the big part on yobit , and the rest is still blocked on virwox . This was my story with bitcoin , it's true that I did not pay attention , but failure can be reality with bitcoin.
You can't seriously black Bitcoin for your bad decision and mistakes. It is like you blame US Dollars because someone in New York would rob you. How exactly it is Bitcoin fault that you trusted some scammer on Localbitcoin, failed at trading on Yobit and got banned/blocked on virvox? I have no right to judge you and I wish the best for you, but if you would be a bit careful you still would have your whole BTC stash.

Bitcoin payments/payouts are easy when you know what to do, the whole process of using bitcoin might be confusing for beginners crypto users. An actual number of services accepting bitcoin directly is growing, you probably would be able to buy anything directly for bitcoin if you look hard enough. I am using Bitcoin to buy on Steam, from my local online stores and on G2A. The only thing I so far haven't been able to buy for BTC directly is food.

SegShit , bip888 , bip 999 , bipbipbip , btc you make me tired and stressed
I will trade your seconde wife = ethereum
First of all, no one is forcing you to learn and know everything about bitcoin, these terms are not necessary to know. Bitcoin users can hold, trade and use bitcoin without deeper knowledge. Knowing what is under the hood is good for nerds and enthusiasts, not for masses. Ethereum is complicated too, but instead of bitcoin its development is totally 'linear' and centrally directed. That is why it may appear as less complicated.

There is no other way, cloud mining is not a reliable source of income, you are simply fueling mining operation of some company and they pay you dividends to cover it up. The best way to get the most from cryptocurrency is always to bought the coin when it is cheap and hold for the significant amount of time. I've read some testimonials from the miners who claimed if instead of investing in mining they would buy coins straightforward - than their profits would be much higher.

THIS THREAD AGAIN!!! Tulip mania was one bubble and crash in a few months. (Nov. 1636 - May 1637) Bitcoin has proven to withstand multiple bubbles and dips. Initially people had a point with the comparison but that is no longer the case. So the answer is NO It is all in our head, Bitcoin is questioned every time by its opponents that the whole economy of this system if fluid, not stable and uncontrollable. People can't imagine the resolution of having a decentralized system not backed by any super power, central or international bank. Bitcoin = people, so if only we will have faith in the system Bitcoin will survive no matter what.

We need blockchain technology it is something new unique and beneficial. Do we need all shitcoins and useless project based on blockchain technology? Not really. But market and life will verify everything, worthless projects will be abandoned and die out, there is no need to worry. I am sure that people were asking the same thing about the internet - why do we need it when there are so many useless websites around?

Hi, this is my first time on this thread. Just got here from the sig campaign. Can I play on vDice even if I don't have separate ETH software wallet? Like, I'd just buy some gas using my bitcoins from an exchange and then send it to the site?
It should work, but I would rather not test it myself. When you are dealing with sending money the best way is not to hustle with it. If you want to be absolutely sure that nothing will go wrong then install real Ethereum wallet (and not something like Jaxx.io) which may have some kind of vulnerability.

I figured that the best strategy is to buy a small amount of BTC at the dips, like some of you mentioned before. It will be foolish to stop buying BTC just because it is now more expensive than ever, considered how traders and analysts are in agreement that price race is far from over. I don't believe in price range $100k-$500k within next 3 years, but 10k is perfectly viable price, and we may even see it later this year.

Price of Bitcoin indeed declined within the last 24h the problem is growing Bitcoin Cash hash power which leads to speculations that BCC might replace BTC in the future. We need to hope that SegWit activation will be a painless process and we won't see any setbacks the we will most likely see new ATH. But even minor problems with BTC could further dampen the price reduction and BCC will become stronger...

Bitcoin Cash is totally different kind of animal - so far it is a purely speculative coin with no real-life usage. From what I know most of merchants and services which accept Bitcoin is not accepting Bitcoin cash. BTC price started a downside correction from $900. The Price moved down and not is traded for ~$700 I think it we will have to wait a bit longer for BTC to break $1000 level.

Russian hackers are well-known in the world, Russia has some of the best geeks & nerds communities always ready to penetrate another layer of cyberspace. Just ask Vitalik As far as I know in Russian education most notably computer science is really good, especially coding. Russian have been teaching kids about computer science for last 30 years.

Just so you know, another dip just started, the price of Bitcoin dropped almost 10% during last 24 hours. From around $4000 yesterday to $3724.95 currently bitcoin is started a sharp downside correction. It is a good time to use Op's strategy and buy some cheaper bitcoins.

There is one major downside I can think of it know - Bitcoin Cash was created out of thin air, it is nothing more than a copy of Bitcoin blockchain. Apart from obvious confusion it created, this move also brings an interesting question. If split happened once - then what will prevent bitcoin network to split again in the future, for example during another scaling upgrade?
