Fight terrorism? Same old excuses. They have been trying to do something like this for a long time. And now with the recent attacks in europe the public may accept that justification. But it won't stop any terrorists. Or anyone who cares about privacy. Most will move to free open source alternatives. If they haven't already.
It's obviously a lame excuse, but as countryfree said, it's a step towards banning cryptocurrencies and (I'd add) god knows what other limitations to the honest citizen. I feel like the politicians today are dumber and dumber. They don't see it coming, but people will get soon fed up with them. |

Maybe OP remembers the problems I had a few months ago ...
The new 3.4.1 works on my Nehalem too! I finally have a miner which hopefully doesn't have the bugs the old one had (frequent disconnects from pools). Thank you. |

Hello,
Is there any working open-source (not Claymore) miner for AMD GPUs?
Thanks!
The OP tells: Is this still working, isn't it? |

In my country (RO) you can buy Bitcoin from self-payment machines (zebrapay). The fees are higher than I'd like, but they cover quite a lot of cities and they are quite handy.
But you can only buy Bitcoin, not sell....
There are a few BTMs in Bucharest, but that's too far for me...

Did something happen with PD?
I had to fill the password and 2FA after quite a lot of time it was not required for re-login, I am asked to change seed and when I do that I am told "too many requests"....
Edit: it works now

For my experience even Yahoo was .. fine. Gmail was best.
Other e-mail services I have used and proved to be OK are lycos.com and gmx.com.
But since you experienced issues and I didn't, you better try for yourself these before every day use.

http://www.newsobserver.com/news/business/article97299902.htmlPARIS - France and Germany pushed Tuesday for Europe-wide rules requiring messaging apps such as Telegram to limit encryption to help governments monitor communications among suspected extremists. I think that they've missed something... The unencrypted communications are part of the past and present, but no will not be part of the near future. They have to find better tools, not rules.

It could be an SPV wallet. That would certainly save on space. It could also use pruning.
But are there SPV wallet for all coins? Can they be done? I don't know that much. First thing that comes into my mind is Cryptonote/Monero: there the simple wallets I know of use a "trusted" public daemon, which I am almost certain it has the whole chain. From what I've read SPV wallet is a quite different thing.... |

Is it technically possible to create a desktop wallet where we can store all crypto including bitcoin and all existing and to be launched coin in one wallet? I know one can keep them in online exchanges but it is risky.
To be launched? If it doesn't have a blockchain, it cannot have a wallet. Now, for the existing ones, it can be done, but it's quite some work and nobody will use it. Just imagine how big is the blockchain for Bitcoin to load. Now, each coin has its own chain, which has to be downloaded. Each coin has its own daemon in a way or another which will have to stay in memory. The result will be something big that needs a lot of resources and which nobody will fully use, since nobody cares of ALL cryptos. Even the small exchanges de-list the coins with low volumes to free resources... |

I am following you. Can you be so nice and return the favor? https://twitter.com/neuro_fishAnd for all: if you follow me, I will surely follow you (give me a few days, since sometimes I check twitter more, sometime less...). (And if you stop following me, I will also do the same sooner or later). |

the owners should hire a responsive and good signature campaign to handle all these..
I can see hundreds of applications have been submitted but there is not even a single reply of OP that whos accepted and who's not?
let me tell you this is not the way to run a campaign.
It is free advertising for a day or two... Until people will wake up. The pay rate looks very good (too good?) and everybody came to apply. You will never know if this "free advertising" issue was deliberate or it's caused by the lack of experience and time. |

So they knew each other. He planned to propose her. And she was randomly picked as winner. What a randomly happy coincidence, isn't it? I mean come on.... are they that stupid to think anybody can believe this crap story? |

Do you have any plan to use escrow? I think thats better so participants can make sure that they can get their weekly payments since you need 100 participants in your campaign and that is huge numbers of participants dude.
I wanted to ask about this too, and also something more: * Is there indeed no minimum post count per week? * How long you expect this campaign to go (weeks, months, more)? Thanks. Edit: @ultrloa The original post writes about MAX 10 posts per day. I was asking about the MINIMUM. |

Sooner or later true insurance companies will come. But I think that they are scared by the current carelessness and stealing hidden under so bad "hacks".
Xapo delivers nice words and I hope we will not get to see if they are true or not... But you can't argue that they found a good niche for some more advertising.
I don't think there is need of insurance companies for bitcoin projects. What making exchangers getting hacked is their own negligance over security systems and weak management of their reserves. And even insurance company can't be expected to be immutable towards hackers. This words from Xapo may only remain as nice talk/statement, real test will be if they also go through similar hack as of other exchangers. There is definitely no need for insurance companies, and even if there were there would be a ton of incredibly high rates just because of the risk of having to cover the losses of exchanges or whatever other business is just an insane undertaking and could become very costly very quickly. Insurance would increase Bitcoin's credibility, because whether you agree or not, old businessmen read about hacks and see there's no insurance, though we know that most of the hacks are negligence or inside job. And insurance companies will have to enforce some rules to exchanges and so on to reduce the change of "hack" as much as possible, else they'll go bankrupt quick. |

Difficulty is dropping!
Indeed... I think that this time it may be in sync with the price on the exchanges. |
