141  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So I guess people are using bitcoins for takeaway on: June 20, 2015, 04:34:41 PM
Damn. It looks like a great service. I would like to be able to pay for food with bitcoin where I'm from. There's only one online food ordering service here and they don't accept bitcoin.
142  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you agree to raise the block size limit to 20 megabytes or not? on: June 20, 2015, 04:27:30 PM
Personally, I think the block size limit should be removed, and the block size should be allowed to grow organically.
143  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin users: Will bitcoin ever be used and fully adapted as a currency? on: June 20, 2015, 04:25:55 PM
Bitcoin definitely has a big future ahead. Adoption will definitely grow and the price will rise. However, most people are currently holding, expecting the price to go up, so not a lot of use as a currency at the moment.
144  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Big question about Bitcoin XT. on: June 20, 2015, 04:23:59 PM
You don't "need" to switch to Bitcoin XT. It is a voluntary action taken by users who want to show support for increasing the block size limit.

Well, he could have sent the bitcoins directly, if he absolutely wanted to. The great thing about bitcoin is there is no gate/wall to access, so you don't need to make use of services to transfer funds.
146  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Banks are 'very excited' said Bitpay on: June 20, 2015, 04:21:00 PM
They're very excited about building their own version for control. Or perhaps, Bitpay may be looking to be acquired or bought out.

It'll be interesting to see how the Greece situation plays out. Some people are speculating that they may pull a Cyprus, where the government took a cut out of accounts with balances above a particular threshold.
148  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Blocks with 0 transactions, attack on Bitcoin or normal? on: June 20, 2015, 04:14:00 PM
Empty blocks are normal. This usually happens when a block is quickly found after a previous one, and there were no transaction in the space of time between when they were found.
149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [POLL] Bitcoin is just like as a Swiss Bank Acc for holding black money ?? on: June 20, 2015, 04:11:37 PM
Bitcoin can be used for anything, good or bad. Same with fiat. Bitcoin is not responsible for what the users choose to do with it.

Well, hooray for regulation, I guess? I wonder how many more bitcoin companies will follow suit.
151  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ben Parker: Bitcoin Has Potential in Fragile States on: June 20, 2015, 04:03:52 PM
One of the main problems with bitcoin adoption is still the ability to buy bitcoin in a lot of places without having a bank account, which isn't possible.
152  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Casualty List on: June 20, 2015, 03:59:24 PM
Casualties? Some of the companies in the list were clearly scams. I wouldn't call them casualties.

Good to see that the number of XT nodes is increasing. I plan to spin a few in the coming weeks. How soon till it hits 1000?
154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bank Of Hungary – Issued Warning For Crypto Currencies on: June 20, 2015, 03:56:42 PM
The Bank of Hungary has send a warning against Crypto Currency like Bitcoin and OneCoin.
For them, Bitcoin is an investment with risks and it's safer to have money in stocks than to buy crypto currency like Bitcoin.
You can read full report here: http://www.businessforhome.org/2015/06/bank-of-hungary-issued-warning-for-crypto-currency/
What is your opinion about this statement?



Bitcoin is still volatile, so that's correct. It's still a risky investment and it should be treated as such. It could lose or gain value at any point.

Biometric authentication can be easily bypassed. It would be recommended to use a combination of both a pass code along with biometrics.

158  Economy / Service Discussion / Hardware miner colocation hosting services on: June 20, 2015, 03:41:57 PM
Are there any colocation hosting services for hardware miners? I've been trying to find information for this, but haven't made much progress. I'm fed up with the cloud mining scams that keep popping up.

Haha. Probably gonna get discovered and fired soon. In any case, good luck!
160  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Do miners pay TAX over their earnings?? on: June 20, 2015, 03:37:33 PM
I would assume it depends on the jurisdiction. Obviously, in the US, you would have to pay tax on miner earnings. I'm not sure about other places.
