What terms are searched in the tweets to determine that he is talking about a specific currency? It would be great if we could see those tweets or at least give us a link to a search on tweet with those key keywords.

For example: Status - keywords: $SNT; Clicking this keyword will redirect you to a twitter search with $SNT.

What is your question? Bitcoin has no legal requirements. You can use Bitcoin regardless of your age or country, - even because you do not need to provide ANY personal information to use Bitcoin.

In my country, you can only have a "full" bank account if you are at least 18 years old. I can't comment on the situation on other countries, but I think it's the same for almost every country in the world.

You were most likely banned for copy-pasting. And I believe that this is a perma ban.

For example, your last post:
Never invest more than you are willing/able to lose – Bitcoin is a very risky investment and you should keep in that in mind at all times.
After buying Bitcoins make sure to move them into your own personal wallet and never leave them at the exchange. My personal recommendation is to use a hardware wallet to store your Bitcoins. If you can’t afford a hardware wallet, try a paper wallet.

Or this one:
The short answer would be “It depends on how much you’re willing to spend”. Each person asking himself this will get a slightly different answer since Bitcoin Mining profitability depends on many different factors.
In order to find out Bitcoin mining profitability for different factors “mining profitability calculators” were invented.

Either we keep the blockchain public for everybody or we don't.

The main idea of bitcoin is the decentralization and independence of governments. This means that it's not possible to block a normal user from seeing your transaction history but allowing your government to do that so they can "track criminals" without giving them too much power.

People can get a little more privacy by not re-using their addresses. This way is harder to link all the payments to a single individual.

Thank you for that!

I'm going to test my Time-Locked Address with the BCH chain in 5 days and post here if I managed to redeem my coins.
Update: My time-locked address reached its unlock date today.
I had a few BCH stored there from before the fork and I managed to get them by using the forked version from Pente without any issues! Thank you Smiley

If you want to try, just remember to change the chain to "Bitcoin Cash" in the Settings tab.

After a quick google search, I found this[1] thread with the exactly same title and first line as yours.
And one of the replies says: "Some say as high as 30% [...]"

So, why did you create this thread if the question already got answered?

Anyway, it may go up to 30%, but it may also vary. I did an exchange some time ago to test and I paid something close to 15% in fees.

Like Lauda says: Maybe a more user friendly wallet? Look at Exodus, if you are choosing a more user friendly wallet. I really like the design of Exodus Smiley
Bitcoin Core already has a "user friendly" fee estimator. Check the screenshot.

Meanwhile, Exodus fee customization is terrible - (maybe too much user friendly?); They overpay fees when lower transactions would be confirmed in the same time, and don't let you choose your fee because "users will use a low fee without thinking and risk their transaction not getting confirmed"; I wouldn't recommend them if you want to save money.

AFAIK, if you delete a post that resulted in you gaining 1 activity from an previous period of 14-days, you will also lose that 1 activity.

Example: You have 14 of activity, in the next period you posted 14 times and gained +14 of activity; Now you have 28 in total. If you wait 1 year and delete some of those old posts, you will lose the activity gained by them. If you made 15 posts instead of 14, and deleted the last one in the future, you will not lose any activity because that particular post didn't result in your +1 activity.
14069  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: BTC sent to mixer but company is dissolved on: October 06, 2017, 05:41:59 PM
Thanks for the replies and advice. It was not a huge amount of money at all, am just feeling even less confident than I was previously about using bitcoin and/or a mixing service again. It is my fault and a mistake I will not make again.
Are you not confident anymore because you didn't research and used a random service that no one never heard off?

As you said, that was ALL your mistake. Bitcoin mixers are safe, but only if you use one that works. Next time use your brain when messing with real money and do at least some research. A quick search and you would have found at least 3 mixers that are working with 3 clicks of a button.
14070  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: BitcoinGold and Electrum on: October 06, 2017, 04:28:22 PM
No one can know yet.

BCH has a considerably large community, which resulted in the quick development of a Electrum fork and other wallets for their chain. Meanwhile, I don't see any community around the Bitcoin Gold fork. If the dev doesn't hire someone or make a fork himself, I don't see too many people taking their time to make a fork for the BCG chain.

Is BitMex an exchange? You can get it back if BitMex is willing to help you, because if they have control over their deposit address private keys, they can recover those tokens.

Contact them, explain the situation and pray for them to help you.
14072  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on the next fork? on: October 06, 2017, 02:05:02 AM
If the rumors of upcoming forks are actually true I'd be surprised. Two months ago was the Bitcoin Cash fork and apparently you can tell most of the people are still in favor of the original Bitcoin.

So I guess any upcoming forks would just go through the same path that BCH went through. COMPLETE FAILURE.
At least bitcoin cash has a community and a lot of people actually support it and believe that it's the solution to all bitcoin trouble.

But that new fork (whatever name they're gonna to it) what new does it have to offer ? Just a plain copy and paste won't go anywhere. Not even 1% close to BCH. So let them test and play but they'll eventually find out that they're wasting everyone's time.
Are you talking about the Bitcoin Gold fork? Because I agree that nothing will happens, and the coin will be just another shitcoin.

The real problem is S2X, which has a lot of support from major services and miners. Imagine trying to buy something with BTC by using Bitpay gateway and having to send them your coins from the S2X chain, or your coins from the legacy chain because they have no replay protection... I'm pretty sure lot of people will lose money.
14073  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: The transaction is stuck on: October 05, 2017, 11:47:14 PM
First of all, avoid making more than one post in a row. If you need to update your thread with something new, use the "Edit" button to include everything in your first post.

And a tip: If your transaction fee is higher than 10 say/byte, you can use ViaBTC's accelerator[1], (and/or if its size is lower than 500 bytes, you can use ConfirmTX[2]) to speed up your transaction confirmation for free. Since your last transaction is eligible for both, I accelerated the tx for your.

14074  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Electrum wallet! on: October 05, 2017, 09:23:32 PM
I never use Electrum for android but in Electrum desktop wallet there is options for that you ask,and it is strange to me that such option is not included in android version.So try to check Tools -- Preferences and then see is there any option for fiat.

When I download Electrum desktop for first time that option is not enabled by default,so probably is not enabled in andoid version,assuming it exists at all.
Read the thread again. OP said that it's only showing the amount in fiat for his individual transactions, and not for his total balance.

OP: This option is not available. The wallet will only show the amount of fiat worth for each individual transactions.

I would like to see Exodus support Monero (XMR) as soon as possible.

I created a subreddit post here for people to up-vote to get their attention:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ExodusWallet/comments/7499sd/feature_request_monero_xmr_support/

Please up-vote the feature request post I made so we can make this a higher priority for them!
You could also join their Slack[1] to talk directly with a dev. But IMO they are already looking forward to support Monero.
This comment[2] was posted over 8 months ago by the Exodus co-founder but it means that they are already looking on how to integrate Monero to Exodus as soon as possible.

Quote
Just so you know, Monero support is our #1 requested feature. It beats out hardware wallet support (#2 requested) by at least 100% - so we're strongly financially incentivized to make it happen.

Unfortunately it's going to be awhile, as we won't release until the UX of Monero feels like every other asset inside of Exodus.

14076  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Minimum amount to have transaction verified in a reasonable time on: October 05, 2017, 07:47:42 PM
Thank you LoyceV.

Size   561 bytes
Fee   0.00000572 BTC
Fee / KB : 0.00001020 BTC
It is less than 2 satoshi per byte.
That's WAY lower than the normal. You can't even use a free accelerator because of the low fee and transaction size.

- ConfirmTX.com accepts free accelerations for transactions up to 500 bytes (yours is 561 bytes);
- ViaBTC accelerator won't accept transactions that have a fee lower than 10 sat/byte;

I suggest you to choose a fee of least 10 sat/byte to be able to at least accelerate your transaction; Or just use a higher fee that may take 1 day to confirm but won't risk to get stuck.
14077  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why do we keep converting bitcoin back to dollars ? on: October 05, 2017, 07:42:49 PM
Remember that almost everything in the world still needs to be paid with physical money. I can't buy a pizza in my country with Bitcoin, for example. Even those merchants that accept Bitcoin will usually sell them for dollars to pay their bills, because they can't do that with Bitcoin yet.

Give it a few years and maybe we will start seeing people living just by exchange Bitcoins for goods and back and forth.
14078  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: A reminder regarding Coinbase on: October 04, 2017, 07:32:12 PM
Oh, I didn't know about this. So what should I do now? Should I shift the coins from coinbase to some other wallet? Can I shift it to electrum. I have already installed the electrum wallet in my desktop. But I don't use it. Since coinbase is very easy to use, I usually keep all my coins in that. Is it safe to shift the coins to electrum or should I use some other wallet? Whether segwitx2 will affect electrum too?
Just hold them on your Electrum. Since you will control your private keys, you will be able to do anything you want with your coins in the future, even because Electrum will most likely follow the Segwit1x chain.

Coinbase shouldn't be used as a wallet anyway - otherwise, they can do anything they want with your coins and you won't be able to complain. Just use them to buy/sell your coins and keep the rest in a desktop wallet.

Are you, or did you make make bot for bittrex? And does bittrex ban people that use bots for trading, maybe i am interested into it?
They don't. Every bot uses their API, which was made for things like that.

Also, nice to see a thread that I replied 2 years ago. It's been a while since I visited TBN  Tongue
14080  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Digital Bitbox (a hardware wallet) Discussion on: October 04, 2017, 06:37:51 PM
Same here. Does it worth it? Or ledger/trezor is better?
I don't see how could this hardware wallet be better than Ledger or Trezor.
They only support Bitcoin, aren't supported in any major wallet (Mycelium, Electrum) and IMO the hardware looks weak;

Meanwhile, Ledger Nano S supports BTC, BCH, LTC, ETH, DASH, XRP and others, can be used with MEW, Electrum, Mycelium, GreenAddress, has a LED screen and looks nicer.
