The crime also shows that Bitcoin has become a real currency with solid demand from all professions. ya.ya.yo! Bitcoin is already the go to coin for every crooks and criminals around the world and there is a solid demand from all folks of life ,be it drug dealer or illegal arms dealer ,everyone will be using one form of crypto currency. What the hell? Ever heard of XMR!? That's what criminals are using haha. Why would criminals use bitcoins if every transaction you ever do can be tracked on the Blockchain? I'm sure the big credit card companies are going to be passed when someone buys an irreversible currency and they're liable for it.

After several emails, bter.com told me that my account had been hacked. They have not yet issued any refund, and do not answer my emails anymore. So I think my money is definitely lost.
Unfortunately they're gone forever and if they aren't offering a refund you're out of luck. That's the crappy thing about Web wallets and exchanges, we're in the wild west and there are no rules / regulations that make it so they have to purchase insurance for when you get hacked.

Well that males a hell of a lot of sense. I couldn't find anything actually showing where the news came from. Lol why do people always try to screw with bitcoin? In the end the truth comes out every single time.

Chinese exchanges might not be the only ones padding volumes, what about Western exchanges here in the U.S and even in Europe? Padding could be a worldwide thing.
It could be, but a 1% fee really hinders it. No fees means you buy 10 BTC, sell 10 BTC, buy 10 BTC, sell 10 BTC. That's what they mean by the volumes being inflated. Why wouldn't you do that if there's no fee to pay? It's less risk because of it.

Some members sending me pm about trading and other services and other bitcoin talk service.. how can i know this member asking me real or want to scam with me...
Trust no one. Ever. If it's too good to be true then it probably is. If you're unsure about whether or not something is a scam just do what you did right now and post a thread about it. No one here is going to hold back what we think that's why we're a great forum!

First of all what the hell are you trying to say? I think your google translator screwed up. Secondly if you're looking to join a signature campaign you'll have to go looking/applying for one. Mitchell has a thread that goes over all of the different signature campaigns going on right now. Check it out.

Now,I have to revise my warning
Don't release the escrow till you check check the validity/authenticity of the code
The OP is notorious in cheating members
Atari---, why are you using a different account now? Everyone can see that it's you... just look at the retaliation trust you leave. "slander" hahaha. Deal didn't go through either. OP didn't want to use escrow. As said before anybody who wishes to buy this I strongly recommmen you escrow first.
You're bad at scamming. Go back to school and get a real job. Your parents must be ashamed. Escrow or gtfo.

If you know it's a scam (because it's a ponzi or for whatever reason) you could always archive the post at https://archive.org/index.php so if they're delete it you have proof of what was said. After that start a scam accusation thread as previously suggested by KWH.

It's a currency. Just because it fluctuates and isn't like any other currency out there doesn't make it any less of a currency. Governments just want to classify it so they can figure out how we should be taxed! There's no other reason because who cares? Everyone uses it for different reasons. Some people hate banks. Bitcoin is perfectly for them. Some people love tech, again perfect fit. Some people can't get a bank account, perfect. Some people want to avoid taxes (not so perfect haha. Don't forget to mix those coins ). Some people want to use it to store wealth. It's an easy way to do that for sure!

Although I'm sure all Americans will hate to hear this, the world (and bitcoin price) does not solely revolve around what's going on in your economy. It's a global currency. It's fairly obvious to anyone outside of your bubble that the price has a little to do with many different countries.

Ok so a few things. 5% is actually a really good fee for a bitcoin atm. I was really surprised whenever you said that. The 7% fee to sell them, not so much. I would rather sell bitcoins at spot price pretty much anywhere else. Still, buying is great.
I hope more people use it than just you haha otherwise it matter not be there for very long! I wish my local gas station had a bitcoin atm or better yet accepted bitcoins as a payment method.
I also really hope that the government doesn't start trying to regulate these more with anti money laundering regulations and require ID. That would be a huge step backwards.

I'm in need of choosing a "right" (safe, convenient, reliable) online bitcoin wallet for my funds but because of the variety of such wallets and lack of experience in this field it's quite complicated task for me. I'm sure that there are some a ton pitfalls (mainly theft of bitcoins) that I don't know or haven't heard about yet and which would affect a lot on the choice. I would appreciate some help on this topic from people who has some experience regarding such types of wallets.
We're talking about web wallets here so I fixed a few things in your OP. Web wallets are convenient. That's really all they have going for them. They're reliable I guess in the sense that the websites don't go down a lot. But what's more reliable is a wallet where you don't have to rely on a 3rd party to hold your keys. For safety I would suggest a paper wallet created offline (cheap) or hardware wallet such as trezor (expensive). For convenience web wallets I guess. You have access to your bitcoins with a username / password so you can access them anywhere. Mobile wallets are much better options though (try mycelium. I love it. Bread wallet for ios is good too). Reliability really would be other wallets whether it's paper, hardware, desktop, mobile. Anything where you hold your own keys. Anything is better than a Web wallet because at some point a web wallet will go down (whether from a hack, or maintenance). Those would be my suggestions.

Amazon giftcards or digital giftcards or something else? Do these come with receipts as well or do we just hope that you didn't purchase them with a stolen credit card?
Nothing in my post says anything about gift cards My mistake. I hadn't heard of these before. How did you obtain the coins? Did you buy them, earn them... Find them?

Sure can! 1111111111111111111114oLvT2 (21 1's just an FYI. That's 4 more than yours.) Haha but please don't send me any more bitcoins because I seem to have lost my private key

Perhaps in a couple of decades people will be asking this question in the opposite direction. You'll have to find some weird guy in a cafe who's willing to take some dollars so you can pay your taxes.
Haha somehow I doubt that but hey, you never know. Governments will always be pushing fiat I'm assuming. I wonder what will happen when bitcoins take over a large portion of currencies though. Some places may end up with their local currencies being hyperinflated.

I think I reported them a few times. I know I saw it and meant too just can't remember if I actually had. I saw 3 posts in under 24h just basically bumping the thread over and over again. So they are not allowed to post separate significant updates or announcements or reply to other posters except for once a day, all in one post?
If you know you're putting on 3 different promotions on a certain day there will never be a need to post every few hours. It's unnecessary and not allowed by forum rules! Obviously replying to a question is OK (but the OP doesn't do that of course, most questions are deleted because obviously they open some wounds about how sketchy the whole website is).

What you're looking for is https://bitcoinfees.21.co. It shows you the fees in satoshi/byte so you have a better idea how much your current fee should be. I've been finding the fees higher than normal right now (about 100-120 satoshi/byte if you want them confirmed in the first or second block).

Hey way to go fatanut. I was wondering about this though: So when did you purchase that account? Or are you the original account farmer? Credit goes to rizzlarolla of course.

This is literally the oldest scam in the book. What's next?: "Did you guys know that you can't type and post your bitcointalk/blockchain.info password?" Rofl. No one falls for this shit. Maybe it's time to get a job
