I have 0.216 btc in my electrum wallet and I need to transfer that to another online wallet for exchanging purpose. But when I tried to send btc from electrum to the other wallet, its asking a fees of 0.031 btc. Its really a hugh amount. Is that normal or do I need to do some settings in the wallet ? Can anybody help me regarding this matter?
This fee is to much and you should not pay almost 200$ to transfer that BTC even if it is about many low inputs.I have a similar situation and I send much bigger amount of BTC for just 0.4 $ fee.Just use manual fee and set it to 100 000 satoshi max or even lower,then you can use ViaBTC accelerator and speed up your transaction.I think it's the simplest thing to do and save a lot of money. |

His opinion and attitude about BTC for me is not really important,I hope he'll be able to see how he was wrong if he live long enough.Like many others similar to him who are not willing to change and accepting that there is something new and better,they only represent a weak opposition of minds.When Buffett say in 2014 to investors to stay away from BTC, I bet many listen him,today they are certainly not happy about it.
He is just one 87 years old man which is already with one foot in the grave,I hope he will not express his "expert opinion" for long time.

I am using SteadyTurtle for years and and I'm very pleased with the service,if there are some small problems they are quickly resolved.Prices are very favorable and you can pay with BTC using CoinPayments which makes the service really quick and easy.I'm currently using Ultimate plan which fully meets my needs and if I need more resources I will definitely try VPS.
Hy, Thank you for writing this out, Can you please tell us your experience with CoinPayments when checking out, is it user friendly and is their fee reasonable or anything else which you think we should know about. your review on CoinPayments checkout will be really appreciated. Thanks You're welcome  Regarding CoinPayments,for me it is very simple&user friendly payment processor and I do not have any problem when paying my service on your site.I think there is no additional fee for me as users,at least I can not say I noticed it.I think that for the average user there should not be problem when using CoinPayments,as I see it is very popular and it is used by more then 400000 vendors in 182 countries. |

I think most of us regret because we did not trust in BTC enough in time when price was only 200$ or even less.I I bought some BTC at that time but shortly after that I sold for a small profit.Time is unfortunately can not return and now it's all behind me.Now I know that I will regret in future if every day not earn/collect some BTC in one way or another.Regret for the past sometimes can be a weight that pulls us back,we need to learn from the mistakes and move forward in the future.

I bought some BTC in 2013 and then I used Multibit Classic v 0.5.14. So far I didn't use wallet and didn't make any transactions.
I would like to move my wallet to another PC, and since Multibit is already fading out - what will be my best path to continue?
Should I first install on other PC newer version of Multbit classic - 0.5.19, than copy all data from roaming folder from older PC to the new one? Should I saw then wallet on the new PC and with the new version 0.5.19?
Afterthat, should I move wallet to Electrum wallet, importing private key from Multibit, as it is explained on the KeepKey home page?
Pls advise me?
Cheers&thx
If you can start your Multibit Classic and it is working best way is to export your private keys and then use that keys in Electrum wallet with swap option.Depending on amount in your wallet there is also option to send your coins direct to another wallet/address,but since Multibit Classic have very low max fee it could be a problem.I do not remember what is that fee,but it must be at least 10 000 satoshi or more to use ViaBTC accelerator tool. Importing PK in Electrum is possible but that keys will not be protected by seed,so best option is to use swap keys(need to pay fee for that),or if you can send BTC from MultiBit to Electrum direct. |

There is news that Huobi is back online few days ago and news is true since their site is working but without BTC/CNY pair so they can trade only between BTC/LTC/BCC/ETH/ETC.There is also huobi pro wich is based in Hong Kong and they allow trading in USDT pairs.
So China is still not allow their citizen to use domestic currency in trading with cryptocurrency,there is a great fear because of the outflow of money from the country.The question is can they find some sort of solution and allow trading with CNY or markets in China will only work in trading between cryptocurrency pairs.

When it comes to BTC then nothing is impossible,100k $ in year 2020 would be a really awesome price although it is quite difficult to predict that something like this may happen in next 3 years.To get there growth must be constant every year without bad news and big drops with more big players to board the BTC ship. What would happen if BTC reach 100k $ at that time is that many holders would become rich and interest for BTC would be much bigger than today.With that price many would start dreaming about 500k $ or even more |

As we all know there will only be 21M bitcoins in circulation. I'm curious how many Bitcoins are lost for good? Either people have lost their coins or forgotten their private keys, or simply coins have been lost because various exchanges have shut down.
I wonder if there is a way to know how many coins are lost forever?
We can only speculate how much is the exact amount because people lost BTC every day,and at the beginning when BTC is almost worthless people are not really paying attention to keep coins safe and made backup.Certainly it is a large number of BTC,I suppose that is probably about a few million BTC is lost.I remember there is a topic about this and there is a specualtion that 3-4 million coins is lost,but this was is 2015 and it is based on how many BTC is not moved over a period of one and a half years.I think it is impossible to determine the exact amount.Many say it is good thing because there will be less coins and this is also affect on price in future. |

Popups Only appear One time per entry , so if you enter , you have to close 4 of them , and after first claim , not a lot will get on.
About Refferal Commission , i made it especially 1 Satoshi as refferal, cause don't forget it's not 5 minute faucet , it's 0 Minute faucet. So you get 1 satoshi every claim from every user , And user can make atleast 5 claims at that duration Or Even 10+ claims. Above 1 satoshi for refferal will make me lose money so sadly, i won't be increasing it. But i do guarentee that you will always get 1 satoshi per claim(And Not 0).
Moreover , i increased rewards so it's 12-15 satoshi Every claim(Will stay like this for long time atleast until bitcoin won't reach like 6500$) , so it's one of the highest paying faucet out there , just for closing up couple of popups at the start and then just do the link shortner for the claim.
I understand how faucets work and that you can not pay more then you get from ads/short links but 0 minute timer in combination with short link is not something that user will use too much.Maybe to try with 5 min timer and reward 25-30 satoshi? The Shortners are the thing that makes the faucet profitable... the problem with faucethero is that he takes the first shortner link(the shortlink of the owner for his profit) and the next are our short link... There is max amount of satoshis i can pay before getting into negative including refferal link , and the optimal amount is 12-15 satoshis. doing 1 shortner takes not more than 20 seconds... and in 5 minutes the person can do atleast 10-15 of those in total earning minimum of 120 satoshis(Can Even Reach 225 satoshis) Every 5 Minutes or even more if the user is faster. I hope you tried it yourself because it is not such easy as you say,maybe for robots but not for some ordinary user.I have statistic of clicks on every faucet on my list and your is not good.Wish you luck anyway hi, may i ask permission if my faucet can be added to your doge list. reward: 1~1.5 Doge duration: 1 minute link: http://my.faucethero.comthanks. I notice your faucet today on FH list and it is add to my doge list,thank you for your interest and good luck |

As someone completely new to BTC this is really helpful. I'm about to buy my first round of bitcoins from coinbase(The reason being it just seemed the most user friendly for my first time).
In looking for the best way to store bitcoin wallet in long term, just like what you've said paper wallet is the safest way to store bitcoin (for me) since you can duplicate it and place it to different safe place unlike the trezor you can only have 1 copy of it. There is a very good way in storing bitcoin wallet in long term. Paper wallet is for sure excellent choice for long term holding BTC,especially if they are not intended to be used for some time.But hardware wallet is also good and safe way to keep BTC and some other altcoins,and even if you have only one hardware wallet you can make as many seed backup of that wallet and if wallet get broken,stolen or something like that you can always use that seed to return data. Some of the disadvantages when using paper wallet are that ink can fade,(we have user on this forum with this problem)the paper is also not waterproof and fire resistant.Also procedure to create paper wallet is not simple in terms of security,all must be done in a safe environment to avoid leak of data which can lead to loss of your coins. |

Three years is not a long period of time so most of users will hold and try to collect more BTC before price reach 10 000$ or more.But every user have a desired price at which they plan to sell all coins or part of them.Sometimes people need money and they are forced to sell even before they have in plan,and also it can be very tempting if you buy BTC at 100$ to not sell today.Users who not have some big amount will wait more then 3 years-for me 1 BTC for 100k$ is nice price.,3-5-10-15 years,more or less I can wait |

Hi All,
I'm afraid I need your guys help. I installed Mulitbit back in 2013 and stored some of my BTC in this wallet. Now years later, I'm trying to access it again. In the mean time I changed computers however I copied all the files to the new computer. Re-installed Multibit (same version) and tried open the wallets. Now all the BTC in these wallets are gone.Even the addresses changed. I never had a password on it as I was the only one using the computer. There was one wallet which had a password on it but no BTC in it. In this wallet I can still see the transaction to the other wallet which hadn't a password on it. Through the bitcoin tracker, I can still see that the BTC is in there. Can someone please tell me what to do? Is this something I can fix? If I can retreive my BTC, I would be willing to pay a fee for the person who can help me retrieve it.
Looking forward to hearing responses.
Tenti
When you download Multibit and use option File -- Open Wallet -- and then try to open your old wallet.dat file do you wait to wallet sync?In order to see your full balance wallet must sync and it may take some time.If you have correct wallet.dat file and after sync you not see anything maybe someone has managed to get your wallet and steal coins.Also problem may be in that version of Multibit,try do download latest version,i think is it 0.5.19. Do you have backup of your private keys maybe?If you have them that would make recovery of coins much easier by import them in some other wallet since Multibit is not working correctly and there is no more support. |

I think there is no need at all to explain to someone is something a scam or not,people should use common sense and all the information available to find something to themselves.At least in the present time it is very easy to get the right information,but some simply have their own theories and nothing can convince them to the contrary.The best example to show them that BTC is not a scam it will be time and successful BTC.At a certain point the greatest skeptics will change their mind.

I see my doge faucet is listed in your Doge faucet list. Thanks for that but I noticed that the link is wrong.
Also the reward has increased to 2 - 2.5 doge per claim permanently.
Thank you for notice me about referral link,it is fixed and reward is updated.Your faucet is at this moment best paid doge faucet and I think LTC is paying very good reward also.Good luck with all faucets and keep up the good work |

I guess I'm having trouble expressing myself.
I don't want to have BCH in electrum. I get it, electrum doesn't support BCH.
I want to move my BTC *between* two wallets on my same installation. The electrum docs talk about doing this in preparation and for protection before providing your private keys to a separate BCH client.
How do I do that without using a network transaction and paying more fees?
If I understand you well you want to move your BTC but keep them in same wallet?I do not know if that make any sense because to do that you need to create new wallet using option New/Restore and in order to not pay any transaction fee you need to import your private keys in new wallet.This way you did not do nothing,only difference is that you have your BTC in wallet protected by seed and in other unprotected by seed,but with same private keys. I general what you need to do is to send your BTC to another address/wallet - it can be Electrum or any other wallet -- then you need to download wallet for Bitcon Cash(it is recommended to install on other PC).When your BTC is safe in new wallet use your seed/private keys in BCH wallet. |

Amelie Arras used bitcoin exclusively, no intermediaries, in a payments race to promote an industry conference. Competing against four others who also had their own strict payment methods, including gold, Ms. Arras won, showing the world’s most popular cryptocurrency is gaining acceptance as a medium of exchange. Full storyIt may be important to emphasize that this competition held in Canada&USA,from Toronto to Las Vegas in 7 days.It is nice news that Amelie wont this contest using only BTC for payment which indicates that it is currently possible to survive only with BTC in this part of the world.It would be fun to see how the competition will end in Asia,but since Singapore is friendly to cryptocurrency I think we can expect that BTC win again. I see gold is one of payment option,but even it is always smart to invest in gold no one is accept gold as payment,so no food,drink or hotel room. |

We have a similar stand from countries that want their digital currency,they all want to discredit BTC first just because they have no instrument to control it.For them is better to made their own digital currency over which they will have complete control.I do not see any difference in that from fiat,only money will be digital but in full control of government.BTC is something quite different and no national digital currency can not replace it.
Different countries will obviously go on different paths as regards BTC and other digital currency,depending on development and adaptation of BTC in future,some of them could change their minds.

I do not think you can not go wrong with invest in gold,it is always in demand and has a stable price,so your money will be safe.Investments in crypto are profitable but very risky because of their volatile nature and the facts that are completely dependent on the internet.In a world like today nothing is safe,but by distributing your money between different assets you can reduce your risk.

It is possible that one day BTC become reserve currency of the world,and we can say that today is like digital gold.Like always people were fascinated with gold and the situation is the same today.But this is a digital era and golden fever moved to the internet.In the past, people have mined gold,small ordinary people and many got rich.Nowadays there is one new generation which is fascinated with BTC,for most of them BTC is new gold and they will try to get as much as possible until it becomes too expensive or inaccessible.

This hidden mining is very widespread lately,as on the sites which are related to cryptocurrency,but also on any other site people visit on internet.How much is known some site owners earn quite a lot of money on this,and because the whole process takes place in the background most users are not even aware of it.Although the indication of hidden mining can be CPU at 100%,some owners try to reduce CPU usage of user so it is hard to notice that you mine for them.But some security company have already issued updates,my antivirus alert me to any attempt of such behavior and block script before start to mine.
