Is anyone noticing the recent delays with blockchain wallet payments?? I made 2 payments on the 9th may and it's more than 48 hours now but none of the transactions have been confirmed. All payments are still showing pending: 0/3 confirmations. I am sick of this.
Can someone please recommend a wallet that works better
I saw posts saying that you need to increase the fee to have your transactions included in a block. In case you didnt know why, its because the BTC network is now overloaded with transactions that now you need to pay a higher fee to have the miners choose your transcations first. Its not blockchain.info's fault. It's definitely blockchain.info's fault. Their fee policy is outdated thus making their users have their fee below the current recommendation and the transaction stuck because of this. I'm also honestly trapped by this. If you make a transaction through blockchain.info recently, you'll see that their auto-fee feature will recommend you the fee which they said will get your transaction confirmed within 10 minutes while the fee they just recommended is really below what it should be. No its more your fault. The service can only try its best to serve you. You wouldnt have this problem if we were not in this anomalous circumstance. Since we are then its your responsibility to know how large the fees should be and change them to get your transactions in the block.

Did you also notice some of the cryptocurrency foundations are registered in Switzerland? Ethereum one of the biggest in the altcoin field right now is registered in Switzerland. There might be others following.
Are Swiss laws more lenient?

Its very useful if you arent in front of your computer the whole day or if you dont have any access to Poloniex outside of your home, like a smart phone. It will give you an assurance that you wont lose more than you plan to in a trade. But sometimes when the markets move very fast the can miss your stop loss target.

Of course if we treat Bitcoin as fiat, then there's nothing we can't invest or reinvest Bitcoin on offline for tangible or investment we can feel. The major problem with Bitcoin usage is converting the coins to fiat in countries when its awareness isnt widespread and also if the many scamming activities around Bitcoin. I meant of those who parade themselves as exchangers.
Anyway, I will like to reinvest my Bitcoin into my poultry business and then expand into piggery when I have enough coins.
But how can you get enough Bitcoins for your poultry and piggery enterprise? Where did you get the BTC youre holding right now? From your signature campaign? Its better to borrow some money and start it right away. If you can see an opportunity to build up a business because you saw about the potential of success then we cant really rely on signature campaign earnings since we do know its only a small amount better to take those traditional loans it may cost some interest but still okay as long your business is on good profits.Investing bitcoin on offline businesses isn't possible because you cant directly spend it. Thats part of the argument I was always trying to make in the thread which falls into deaf ears or maybe small brains. BTC is already an investment so theres no need to do an investment offline. The easiest way to invest with BTC if you really must do it is always right there in front of us. Altcoins. If you think an offline business is easier and has lesser risk than altcoin investing, then youre wrong.

RICHMOND BERKS introduce as Online Real Estate Auction, it seem LEGIT with Support team that always replying any message but how with USD 10 we can get big return investment??
is there any one or expert that have analyze this?? need an advise for sure
Though Richmond Berks seems like legit and has all the documents displayed together with all the permits but it doesnt mean it is safe to invest on it. That kind of investment is considered to be an HYIP and is deemed to be a high risk investment. If you are having trouble with where they get their funds using common sense it will be coming from the new members that invest on that site. Maybe then its really not legit at all. Ponzis are illegal in all countries I reckon. If they promise to grow your money very quickly and then they use new investors money to pay of the older investors then thats a definition of a ponzi. You should turn around and run away. Not only Richmond Berks many Rev shares are paying same way, use new investor money to pay for the old investors. I think it is clear Richmond Berks went into scam status without any payments to members, but I came to know that they offer very low % of returns. Is 1.7% daily really that low to you? In a couple of months you already have 100% returns. Thats impossible to do without anything scam related is done behind it. I will say this again. Turn around and run away.

Uganda would be the first african country to regulate Bitcoin.If it regulates,it would be followed by kenya.In nigeria,due to failure of local currency,most people have started using bitcoins.Since africa is such a big continent having many countries,it would be much useful for bitcoin progress if they adopt bitcoin.
Ok but how will they pay for their taxes? Do they still need to convert BTC to fiat? Regulation is different from primary acceptance. You should be careful what you wish for because it might happen like China again. You dont want your BTC stuck in an exchange do you?

I heard rumors that Uganda or some other country is adopting Bitcoin as its official currency. Does not make sense to me at all for a country to adopt a currency it has absolutely no control over. I am not 100% sure but I think they don't have internet or electricity down there. In any case, the Central Bank would have to first make a reserve which means they would have to buy Bitcoins first before just adopting it. Anyway, would be dope if some country officially adopted Bitcoin!
This rumor has been going around the internet late last year. Its nothing to celebrate about. If a nation were to adopt Bitcoin for real then they would have to accept BTC payments for their taxes. If that doesnt happen, everything will stay the same no matter how you say its accepted.

I am planning to open a Pizza and coffee shop in my area and I have a plan to implement bitcoins as a mode of payment so right now I am just trying to explain it to people around me about bitcoins as to start a business you also need to have a good traffic and customers who are aware about bitcoins and are willing to make payment in bitcoins.
Thats a realistic goal, I like it. Unlike most of the remarks here which are from the slightly pinheads. Scroll up if you want to see and find out. One weakness that I see in your plan is where will you raise all the BTC you need to start the business? I hope you wont say from the odd jobs in the forum that pay in BTC.

Has it been confirmed they ve halted withdrawals as well? I ve read only about wire deposits not working.
They only halted deposits/withdrawals in FIAT. Not sure why people keep pushing the idea that this is affecting coins as well -- it isn't, hasn't, and they've said it won't. Nobody is giving the idea that its affecting cryptocurrencies. The big worry here is how long would it take before fiat deposits and withdrawals are allowed again at the exchange. If this problem takes more than 1 year then Bitfinex will have to halt trading and let their clients withdraw in BTC and other cryptocurrencies. I don't know if the surging price of btc makes bitfinex hold the funds of their investors since if they would let people withdraw what they have it can affect the + rally of bitcoins at this point(just my pity opinion). And we should leave this exchange since they have been compromised already and this second time around is kinda little bit suicide for the people who keeps deposting in their. And how could people settle on them will their so many exchange existing today. Havent you been reading the news about BTC? Bitfinex's bank in Taiwan thats holding all their client's funds and maybe also funds for their operating expenses are locking the those funds. No one can withdraw fiat from Bitfinex but BTC is allowed. Please read up before you log in here.

I have 2fa enabled but I still must click the email link sent by Blockchain. I dont mind another layer of security but sometimes its very annoying. Blockchain doesnt have a clear way of disabling it which makes it very frustrating.

If you rate your comment from 1 to 10 what would it be and how sure and confident are you of this? You have been in Bitcoin longer than many but your comments dont show you to be very knowledgeable. Sorry for being so frank.

I had this issue before but the problem is more on your email provider than Blockchain.info. I have asked this question before but I havent received any reply, is it possible to remove Blockchain's email verification? Theres a link to unsubscribe in every email verification I get but Im still scared to click it. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Meanwhile, the BTC price difference (and the price difference between USD and USDT) is down to less than 2%. So for those who still have fiat on Bitfinex and want out, it will only cost you 2% now, as opposed to 9-10% earlier. Or you can wait until the difference is 0%. I think the shrinking difference is the result of growing confidence that Bitfinex will indeed solve this problem and give people access to their fiat again soon.
The better thing to do would be to keep holding BTC because the price is still going up. Take the opportunity now while its there. The big crash will be coming sooner than we think. I would hate to be trapped in Bitfinex during a crash.

Bitcoin is will be hot topic for many judges over the world. New York already had couple court sessions about bitcoin and I agree with most members here that in this case people from there can use bitcoins and that will be tax-free for them, that is a good thing for bitcoin, and many people there will see this is as opportunity to avoid taxes, for me that is a gray area and there will be new verdicts about bitcoin in near future.
How can it Bitcoin trades be tax free in the US if its not classified as a currency it will be classified as a commodity? Theres no such thing as tax-free in the US if you must know. Taxation is a means of controlling the people for them. As quoted it's not taxation free. Every country has its stand on bitcoin usage with limitations and taxation system based on the transaction made. Recently Israel made a statement that there is no opposition for bitcoin usage, but same as the commodity digital gold it will be taxed. So not only US, nowhere it's tax free. Did Iv4n it wasnt going to be tax-free? Look and read the post I have quoted. He says its going to be tax-free, thats why Im asking asking him how and why he mentioned it. Now are you claiming it isnt what hes saying or didnt you read Iv4n's post?

I was asking if there was something big happening in the economy of BTC to warrant the high price. Check my post before this in this thread. Maybe were looking past that because what we really care about is only the price of BTC with disregard to its long term value.

How Friends I Want Start A Small Business With Bitcoin With Daily Or Weekly Payment Any Idea From Where To Start Will Be Thankful.
I can suggest you to start a online adnetwork that pays in bitcoin. But at the begining you will need some investment. Without investment its not possible. At the begining phase you wont get any advertisers, but you have to keep paying your publishers. After developing a good reputation among publishers only you will get advertisers . So initial investment is required. Hmm, indeed it is quite good. But I prefer to use this forum as a place to seek advantage, because by simply having a capital account we can benefit. So, this is a world that is very profitable and fun. For we no longer need to leave the House or room if you want to earn money, everything can be done in various places and the place is not the main thing to note. Because the fee every country could not take all the funds that we have in the bitcoin Really glad that the forum is very multifaceted, do not give an opportunity not only to experienced Bitcoin users, but also to beginners. True - the opportunity to earn bitcointalk, learning new information. What opportunity are you talking about? How much do you earn in this forum and what do you do to earn it? All I have is this signature campaign but maybe you know something that I dont. Tell us.
