Tor wallet was already suspected to be scam and finally they ran away with all bitcoins users have in their wallets. We should never trust this types of online wallets, electrum like desktop/mobile clients are best to use daily or hardware wallet to store bitcoin safely.
Yeah nothing beats a desktop wallet with all the private keys and seeds backed up and encrypted. But if you really need to be anonymous and want to use a web wallet, you can use TOR on the trustworthy services like Blockchain.info and Greenaddress. You can use their Tor address if you want. Easy. https://blockchainbdgpzk.onion/ https://s7a4rvc6425y72d2.onion |

Everybody should try to understand that Poloniex has slowly become the biggest altcoin exchange after the demise of Cryptsy. Obviously theres a backlog in applications to get their accounts verified also because the the recent influx of new traders because of the bull run.
They also closed their troll box because they got their moderators out to help answer customer support emails which also has a backlog.
Just be patient.

Why is everyone becoming very impatient on getting XFC listed on a major exchange like Bittrex and Poloniex? The better thing to do is to wait for the football season to start and get the platform started so that it will start earning real revenue before planning on dumping your XFC. Greed will get you nowhere.

ok so if a whale hands out Bitcoin paper wallets to homeless people
would they know how to redeem and use the money or hold the bitcoin?
would they learn it?
maybe some of them would become bitcoiners or even programmers and valuable to the ecosystem
who wants to join me doing this
we need people in the usa, where there are the most homeless people on the planet, who are whales and want to help the cause handing out some paper wallets on a daily basis
Giving homeless people BTC would be the dumbest thing any Bitcoin holder can do. If I saw a homeless person and want to help him or her, I would prefer to give them food and some used clothes, or maybe even a tent. |

The only complaints I have seen about not being able to withdraw from Polo are usually issues with the coin (wallet/network/dev team), not with the exchange. I haven't had issues withdrawing BTC at all over the last couple years.
I'm not referring to the last couple years, all the complaints exploded over the last couple months. But it could be explained by increased volume. We have to see if there continues to be problems with withdrawals over the next few months. I've heard of zero complaints about them from anyone that is reputable. The only real issues I've heard of are slow verification processes, but nothing shady. This. Some users have gotten so used to the fast withdrawal times in the past, and now that Poloniex have become a lot stricter in their withdrawal process those people are now trying to create a scene that Poloniex is freezing their withdrawals indefinitely. I dont know if its true but some say that verified accounts' withdrawals are processed faster. Can anyone confirm this? |

You should first define what wealth is.
Paper money and bitcoin is no wealth.It can mean today wealth but tomorrow nothing.Real assets mean wealth and since paper money is going to be destroyed in a crash most people won't be able to buy in into wealth since their fiat is worthless.
Then what is wealth in your definition and what should the people be holding onto if theres an economic crisis happening? Is it real estate, gold and other precious metals? |

How to get one?
All seem to be out of stock !!!
Trezor are in stock. But if you want my advice, I would say buying one can wait. I bought one that arrived last week and it made me feel like it was a wasted purchase. I store my seeds and private keys well enough for me not to need a hardware wallet. My overpriced Trezor is just one more seed to back up and store. I agree with this. If you're concerned with security you can create a paper wallet, which is 100% secure. The only use case for a HW wallet is for a large account that you're constantly withdrawing from, which for most people isn't the case. For 100s or 1000s of $ an iPhone app wallet is good enough. You can always get an USB stick and just put your keys on there, be it a paper wallet image, or a wallet.dat bitcoin core wallet, or whatever else, just be sure to encrypt the thing. I guess the special appeal with hardware wallets is that they isolate the device from the OS so even if the OS is infected, nothing happens. Yeah, this is what I do. Cut everything in a USB and plug it in only if you are using your wallet. Make sure nothing is left in your computer after using it. If you are feeling very paranoid use encryption software like Veracrypt on your USB. |

Why did the developers of DIM choose NEM as a foundational platform? What do you think it does better compared to Waves and NXT?
As a XEM holder, of course Im happy with your decision. But what really attracted you to it?

BitMaxz, are you saying your account was hacked? Did you try contacting Poloniex's customer support?
This looks like an isolated case because no one else is complaining that their accounts were hacked. The best thing for you to do is change your passwords, enable 2FA if you have a verified account. If you dont, its better to have that account deleted by Poloniex.

Whats the catch here and why should we trust you? Its very easy to make claims that you do something well but how do we really know that unless you show us your track record. How do we also know that this isnt a pump group?

I have no experience in using a BTM but does it require KYC/AML to use them? If no, then thats the price you pay for your anonymity. If I was a criminal trying to cash out thousands worth in BTC from a BTM with no KYC/AML docs needed then I wouldnt mind paying for the premium.

Dont forget South Korea's household debt is in record highs too and its a sign that their economy is weakened by this. A small nudge of a Chinese recession will also make the Asian countries economies fall like dominoes.
How does this affect BTC? Will it be a currency to buy and hold on to making the price increase or will it also lose value in the recession?
I don't think that would bode well for Bitcoin Obviously, it largely depends on how many people are actually involved in Bitcoin in these countries and whether they will get affected by the crashes you are talking about (they certainly will). If people's wealth gets burned, for example, due to housing market meltdown, I don't think they will be inclined to invest in Bitcoin. As to me, they will most likely be looking into less volatile assets like the US dollar You are right. Cash or gold will be the more odds on favorite assets to buy and hold onto especially for less sophisticated people. But will the casual Bitcoiners buy BTC and hold onto it in search for a safety net? Maybe some will but I doubt others will have enough belief in it. |

Theres only 2 good answers for what Yossmaku is asking, Poloniex BTC lending and investing in reputable gambling sites. Earnings are slow but the risk of losing is low.
If you are willing to take more risk, instead of coin doublers, why not try ICOs.

I wouldnt waste my coins to have food delivered in my door step to be honest. I know some people here have posted that it will be good for BTC to have Pyszne.pl accept it. I dont think it will make a difference because almost no one will be using their BTC just for that service.

The receiver can know it is sent by you as it will reflect in his/her account as inward foreign remittance along with the note you wrote when initiating the swift transfer. Moreover, you and the receiver know the exact same amount, not to mention you have the reference number of the transaction too.
This. The reference number is what marks your wire transfer to make it easier for BTCe to find and sort your deposit. But in my experience even if you forget to put the reference number, the exchange can still verify that you made a deposit because it has all the other information like your name and address. |

I'd like to see the data they collect after 1 year just to see if BTC acceptance has been good for them or not. But I dont think it will matter because of low usage as a currency. Most BTC users just buy and hold as an investment.

But in a way, hes already dead. Did the technology became stagnant? No it's getting better and better. Did the price go down? No, its still growing.
How would the community feel? The community wont feel anything. Everything is all about the price of BTC now.
