If the pro-vaccinators wish the anti-vaxxors to take the vaccines to keep the herd safe from disease (herd theory)
Do Bitcoiners have the same argument - everybody should use Bitcoin to keep (the herds money) safe.

What I mean is, do Bitcoiners have the right to abuse non-Bitcoiners because of their choice of money?

(of course I would never do it)

biggest commercial bullshit on earth. I have no problem for the commercial corporation to flash everyone with their product forcibily, but not market participant... why? because we know. What do we know?

we know that if YOU are vaccinated, I don't have a risk of getting the virus you are vaccinated against, HOWEVER I still can get one of the TRILLIONS that YOU aren't vaccinated. YOU are causing A RISK to ME. the best safe solution is YOU dead. NO RISK. wanna play hc, u will live&die hc mofs.

Actually dead people can still spread diseases, flies will surely help with that.
So even safer is that .. the other guy is sent to outer space, or frozen under 10km of ice or on the other side of the world Smiley
Outer space would be expensive, but less risky imho.

It's only a gap. There are coins CPU only or CPU/GPU. Most based on M7.
Smarter guys will come out with smarter ideas. Just give them time.
We got used with too many new coins/algos/ideas in short time..



PS: LOL@mango!!
16083  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Most Profitable Algorithm? on: January 25, 2015, 08:40:40 PM
It's not really about algo anymore. You have to catch the coins/moments when diff is low and price still reasonable. It's a tough detective work.

Maybe you find a good (multi) pool, but I think that those days are nearly over too.
16084  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Help on obtaining Wallet Address? on: January 25, 2015, 08:33:32 PM
I also suggest just-dice. You'll find out only from address if you have CLAMS. At least this step is risk free Smiley

After you move your BTC to a safe place, you can use just-dice also to redeem CLAMs. I did that too and it was quick and correct.
16085  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best antivirus software to protect your crypto on: January 25, 2015, 07:15:53 PM
Some good number of years ago I used AVG free. When I came back from holiday, I had a surprise. A bad one. AVG was not updated for long time (obviously) and couldn't connect to get the latest signatures. So it turned off the entire protection(!!).

Since then I use Comodo.

To protect your coins, just keep small amount at hand and the rest can stay on paper wallets. And if you generate and print 1000 of them, a hacker/virus will hardly be able to keep track...
16086  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: is bitcoin anonymous? on: January 25, 2015, 04:17:42 PM
Still your personal name is not attached to the transaction.
But what about the IP address?

That is what makes it not anonymous. It is possible to get the IP address if you look at from where it originated.
However there are altcoins which offer complete anonymity.

How ? what are the difference? both are mined using a device that is connected to the network ,and gets IP Address.

Bitcoin, especially the big amounts, are nearly impossible to make anonymous. They show your IP anx that usually goes to your identity.

There are altcoins that are not based on bitcoin (or not that much) and there the transfers are automatically mixed and anonymized. It's even a way safer method than relying on somebody else (the businesz/site that mixes your coins)

There is any specific limit?

Spend some time and check what are the normal amounts of bitcoin in transactions. More higher you go out of those numbers, more visible you'll be.
There are a lot of ppl watching the big transactions because they may be followed by big dump/price drop.

Abusing anyone for any reason is not nice and not OK. But there's freedom of speech and some think that it give them the right to do so...


...and there's the freedom of choice. For vaccines, for currency....
16088  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What Would Make People Gain Much More Interest in Bitcoin? on: January 25, 2015, 12:36:53 PM
1. Stable. Merchants will not take the risk of falling coin.
2. Safe. Big reliable payment processors, insurance against scams.
3. Simple. A way to use it as simple as the credit cards. No multi sig, no 100 chr password or account to type, no odd software that can be cloned by a scammer to steal your coins.

I use a mobile. A windows phone. Google is rude and doesn't build a chrome for my browser. As google is rude, I refuse to use chrome in my PC and use Firefox instead.
That's why i wanted an auto translate.

I am also on mobile right now. And I did a test:
I copied this page link, I opened google translate in another tab, I pasted the link and I pressed Translate. It worked.
16091  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin transction wont cnofirm on: January 24, 2015, 02:32:00 PM
I see 0 fees. It may take days.
Did your other transactions were also with 0 fee?

Wtf, ive always paid the .0001 transction fee, it always does it automatically.

What is "it"?

I guess that IT is the wallet. Maybe a bug, maybe he tried a trick (port closed??!! why??). This is the result.
16092  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Hash Rate Will NEVER Drop EVER! Read why on: January 24, 2015, 02:23:09 PM
You are wrong.
I don't think that more than 10% of the HW is sold. Did you ship outside US? Was that cheap? No.

People are also more careful and think twice before buying new mining HW.

So... yeah... hashrate will drop. And it's actually OK.
16093  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do I grow My Dogecoins? on: January 24, 2015, 02:17:09 PM
I advice against betting as business: too risky. Gambling has to be done for fun, only in the limits you can afford to lose.

Investing.. there are places you can invest BTC, but the dogecoin is not common anymore as investment.
Coingame.io may accept doge investment, but I don't know if it's worth it and if the owner is OK.
If you do this you should read more about investing in gambling businesses.

Day trading can be a solution, but it can be risky if you go by luck and don't understand markets and exchanges.

Faucets.. are mostly waste of time (though I still use them!).

Right now the safest way to get money is the signature campaigns. You'll get BTC and you can convert in whatever you want.
16094  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is GPU hobby-mining dead? on: January 24, 2015, 02:06:55 PM
Hobby means that you can do it even with no ROI.
If you are careful you may even find coins that make you money.
Big pools may not be the solution anymore, you have to do the detective work too.

16096  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: My GPU wont work. on: January 24, 2015, 01:52:41 PM
First of all  GPU mining for btc will is worthless.
Also mining works only on newer GPUs.
Now, make sure you have OpenCL installed.
If you bave all this  I suggest to ask in the thread of the mining software you use.
16097  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bill Gates: "Bitcoin Alone Won't Solve Global Payments Challenges" on: January 24, 2015, 07:14:37 AM
Bitcoin - and any crypto - needs to be backed with a couple of very big and known payment processors and a couple of insurance companies (insurance against fraud, to offer reverse payments and so on).

Average Joe, when buying goods, will not want to care about multisig. He wants all payment done good and fast.
16098  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why not...? (Oooh drawing you in with a question... (and then humor)) on: January 24, 2015, 06:52:50 AM
If the hashing power would be on a more used algo (scrypt, x11, x13), then a pool that handles the power will do. Basically the pool (multipool) could use some power for coin1, some power for coin2, ... getting more income without rising the diff too much.

So what you need is a smarter multipool program, not really a new coin.
16099  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][XMG] Coin Magi |1st PoS-II |1st PoM | M7M CPU only [HARD FORK SOON] on: January 24, 2015, 06:43:32 AM
Looks like your wallet just starts staking? any transactions recently? That's the reason showing insufficient weight; notice that the expected time is never accurate.

The actual expected time to earn PoS rewards is about 2-3 days for coins 100 XMG or so under current network weight. It's better to stake all of your coins together; you can do so by sending all to an address. You can close your wallet then and keep it offline; be sure to check back the status for example, 1 day later, the stake weight and expected time to earn rewards (just estimate). You will receive interest for sure.

It's not that much benefiting though by staking 110 XMG though (this is also for security considerations, just imagine other people/network can get interests far more than you), but you don't have to remain the wallet online, just check it from time to time. For better result, storing more coins like 500 XMG will get you rewards in less than half day (in this case better to be online more often to ensure rewards received).

Rules: Don't send coins during staking, or stake time will be reset. Don't keep the wallet offline for more than 5 days in any circumstance, or you need to reset the stake time.

Thank you for the wide explanation! It gives me some ideas on what to do next Wink
I was away for holidays and my wallet was offline until some point this week, when I also updated it to the newest version.
I didn't do transactions with that money foe quite some time, so the "don't send coins" doesn't apply.

Sorry for such late response, but I gusss that it's better to give an update. Finally bought some more XMG and also mined a little, now all the coins are back to wallet and PoS seems to have started good.
