An update from the lead developer of The Blocknet:
"The service node code (aka masternode) has been ported, and we are currently refactoring the blocknet wallet to support that code and also include support for bip65 and bring the blocknet wallet up to par.
Also for the UI, the blocknet dx api is also being updated and should be ready tomorrow. I know its been quiet on the dev side but a lot of work behind the scene’s has been done (and visible in github)… Based on the current status, I think the July date for the “soft fork” is still valid, maybe 3rd week of July. The SPV work will start after mainnet launch."
Well, it looks like some people know about that and are waiting for it because the price of Blocknet is rising constantly, and not only in USD but in BTC too (over 6% in BTC in the last 24h). It's almost $8 now. Lucky are those who bought it at $0.05 four months ago. |

There is not good enough guarantee that bitcoin price would go up to 3000 dollars. I mean it is not impossible, but as we saw when the price of bitcoin was on 2600 dollars, people started to sell, and the price went down to 1700 dollars. So as Creeping said there will be ups and downs in bitcoin price, and there is no certain way to say what will happen. We all hope for higher price  It is always the case with purely financial assets. We never know where the price might go. We may set some reference points or even "landmarks" of sorts, but market almost always knows better (than we do). And Bitcoin is not an alien or exception to this rule. We may think that Bitcoin price is not going to reach 3,000 dollars any time soon after the correction (or crash) that we experienced a week ago but it may jump over there right within the next week Or crash lower down to 1,000 dollars (or below)But what could be the reasons for that crash? We have already witnessed the correction and after that bitcoin is steadily rising in price drawing more attention, in the finest sense of this word. I think it is much more likely that bitcoin will hit $3k soon than it will crash down to $1k. But what are the reasons that Bitcoin will hit 3,000 dollars soon or sooner? My point is that we can't reliably predict anything in respect to such assets for the long term. Basically, we can only hope and pray. That's the reason why long term investing in Bitcoin and altcoins is gambling in disguise. More specifically, I referred to tensions quickly rising around Bitcoin due to confrontation between different groups in the Bitcoin camp (developers versus miners versus the rest of the world). If Bitcoin turns toxic, it would rather go down to 1,000 than up to 3,000 dollars per coin Yes, I agree with you. If bitcoin "turns toxic" people would start getting rid of it switching to Ethereum or Litecoin or whichever other crypto they like, and then price might drop even to zero in the long run. But I was talking about somewhat brighter future where due to extensive media coverage bitcoin will find a lot of new fans and because of that the price will rise. of course we don't exactly how much, but $3k sounds realistic It may not fall down to zero, of course But it could crash very low, down to triple digits (well, a little over half a year ago upper triples would be totally fine). Obviously, for the future to become bright and brighter we should first survive this summer. If tensions are set to intensify (which seems to be the case), people will just move their money into fiat or some other coin, even if only temporarily, to wait out the troubled times and see how things are going to unfold in the end. So we should be particularly attentive to any events that could throw some light on what is about or likely to happen I really respect your point of view and I think you are right most likely because you have much more experience with cryptos than I do, but what if the bitcoin price will be rising even when the problems bitcoin has now will not be solved? I mean for users it's either big fees or slow transactions. But what if people will come to terms with that? |

the price is rapidly go down, but ut is normal with all the coins, it is in two-face of how you look at it, one side will say, it's the best time too buy more and hold, the other one will say, he's loosing money cause the value of the coin is going down.
which side are you?
And today it is rising again.  It is $0.73 right now, also 3.36% rising in BTC. I hope to see $1.20 again, I dont want to sell TOR cheaper than that. Btw, any of you guys sold some TOR and if yes for how much? I sold my first 20 TOR for 0.00049 each on Crypto Dao, and since then I'm holding. |

Hello guys ,, I ask everyone who follows this currency , what is the expectation of the price of the currency xvg on the long term (1 year )  BTC? Well, the currency is rising big lately, 7 times in USD and also 7 times in BTC just in the last 5 days. It is traded on 9 markets with 15 mil volume which is pretty good so I think it can stabilize around $0.005 in the nearest future. IMO it will be a good result for the coin if XVG will reach $0.01 in 1 year. |

Forget about everything else and just put everything on bitcoin. You are living with your parents, they pay everything for you, you got nothing to lose. If I was living with my parents, I would save everything and buy bitcoin monthly. If BTC doesn't keep rising you can still reach the 21 BTC holder group, then save this and retire in 10 years when the price makes you a millionaire.
Go all in on regret later. You are on a privileged position to profit from high risk high reward moves. No risk no win, and BTC is the best long term high risk bet.
I would go all in with pleasure but even though I'm living with my parents I still need my money for many things and I can't invest in BTC although I'm sure it would be a right thing to do. But even if I could, 21 BTC is far from what I could buy. It's more like 1 BTC in two years. |

In my opinion, trading is more risky because money is at stake more, in contrast to skills That's true. Only sick addicted gamblers put all their money at stake during gambling. But for traders it looks like a normal thing since they analized the situation and almost sure they will be in profit. But sometimes unpredicted things happen and they lose a lot then. |

If with BlockNet a fully decentralized cryptocurrency exchange can be created, like the article states, then BLOCK might really have bright future ahead. In the meantime we can see rising from $3.97 to $7.44 in the last three days. Exchange is ready and running,devs are working on user interface right now. That's great, I'll keep an eye on that. I've found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61qTTauhc3o&t=2147s where starting from the 35th minute the guy is talking about BLOCKNET, he's saying about decentralized exchange between different blockchains. And says it's awesome. When do you think it will be ready? I think,this summer Thanks for the answer! That's a great news. Meanwile BLOCKNET continues rising (12.92% in BTC in the last 24h). But it is still traded on Bittrex only with $150k volume. |

Good article. I think they were right about causes of nowaday's rising. Also I wasn't aware of that Winklevoss' case on regulatory approval for a bitcoin exchange-traded fund is now reviewed. When they lost the first time I was surprised because they are very powerful and I thought they should win. I think this time they will get the approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Probably the bold act of Japan in accepting bitcoin as money and Australia might have an influence with the review of SEC towards rejection of Winklevoss proposal. Aside from that there are current development that might probably put more hype and steroid to the bulls of Bitcoin. That is the RSK and the lights on the scaling of bitcoin. This might probably the main player on Bitcoin at $4000 at the end of the year.So you agree with the "Analyst" then. Actually me too and I wish three of us were right. Japan and Australia is just a beginning, more countries will follow, and rising number of bitcoin users will induce the price rising inevitably. |

WTF??? are you really gettingn 500 satoshis/free roll?? I dunno if this has something to do with the country you live on, but I'm getting between 80-90 this days.
The base win amount 80-90 is also for me. I have active 500% free btc bonus. So the win amount is like that. The payouts on freebitco.in are subjet to change along with the price of bitcoin in USD. But in USD they are always the same: $0.002 - the minimum, when you roll between 0 and 9885. $200.00 - maximum, when you roll the number 10000. I don't think they are different in different countries. Yes, the prices are same in different zones but the bad thing is that with increase in bitcoins price they are offering very less satoshi per hour making it real low and unattractive faucet. Of course they need to do this, and why they should give huge amount free money for people who did not even help them to build their site? No one ever think why they get their money from to support your faucet right? This will be a good thing to lower it, as long as they can give us any payout from their free money, no one should ever complaint about it though. i believe they spend a lot just to give free money for everyone Freebitco.in is the best bitcoin faucet in the world according to different ratings. Many bitcoin users took their first satoshis from there. IMO it's just silly to complain about the amount they give so I totally agree with you on supporting them. |

When Japan and South Korea officially accepted bitcoin it will be followed by many countries, might someday transactions between countries will be using bitcoin. I think, the future of the bitcoin will very good.
The asian countries is one of the leading countries that has a big market in overall and i also believe that the other countries will follow what they are doing with bitcoin and we can see a good market in the next year because of the adoption and soon we are going to use bitcoin as a daily currency because of the widely acceptance of bitcoin. Although bitcoin is still far from being widely accepted, it shows good results already: went down to $1.900 and, despite of the panic selling, instead of going down even further it has recovered in less than one week. I predict solid $3k by the end of this year even if nothing good towards bitcoin will happen. Agreed, if the past price pumping is done externally to attract the users then this could have exploded causing a big fall in price. But the truth, it is a normal growth happening with bitcoin. Only because of that it haven't went down, but regained the lost value in a short. So as quoted at least can expect $3000 by the year end which is realistic and 100% possible. We still don't know what might happen, it may be a pump or a dump, we don't know, what we know is, the price of bitcoin always pump, and always dump. With the rumor about the UASF, many investors are thinking of selling their bitcoin, it obviously will results into a dump.. There is not good enough guarantee that bitcoin price would go up to 3000 dollars. I mean it is not impossible, but as we saw when the price of bitcoin was on 2600 dollars, people started to sell, and the price went down to 1700 dollars.

Thanks!! I'm reading it right now. If I understand correctly there are 70 places in the Netherlands where they accept Gulden already. And they are not only Webshops, there are places from the "real" world like Food and Beverage, Taxi, Caretaking. So you were right, Gulden has a lot of real users outside cryptoland and even outside of the Web.
I sold Gulden only for one reason, it's not going on Poloniex and that is shooting yourself in the foot. I admit it is the best coin in a fair world but because the world is not fair it doesn't stand a chance against coins backed by rich people , rich people will always win when the investment they behind is not nearly as good but people will follow the money. Gulden suffers from poor man syndrome, it is used by poor/middle class people. The wall street class is trading on Poloniex. Maybe you are right for now, but I think Gulden will be supported by the Dutch government sooner or later and things will change. But even now, without that suport, Gulden is rising, 11.21% in BTC and 17.37% in USD in the last 24h. What makes you think Gulden is used only by poor/middle class people? And even if that is true why do you think it's bad for a coin? Poor/middle class people are in the majority, remember, one can't ignore them, they can make a lot of things happen. |

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/xtrabytes/The graph looks pumped as fuck, but of course, one year from now it may be nothing but a small bump in the road. The problem is, its total supply is 650,000,000 coins. This means we need a $650,000,000 marketcap, which means the coin needs to be a top10 coin... do you really think this coin can take out some of the top10 coins? Why does it need $650,000,000 market cap? I don't understand that either. First it costs $0.035664 right now, not $1 and second the price can change in the future. So why the market cap should be exactly $650,000,000? I don't know whether XtraBYtes has a big potential in the future, but I must admit it was a good rising from 270 sats one week ago to 1.5k sats now. |

In what situation would bitcoin die ? Its million dollar question. When globally all government band bitcoin then bitcoin will die. When all people don't use it then bitcoin will die.when another popular cryptocurrency coming.
Bitcoin won't die if it will be banned by all governments, that's the idea. And there are many popular cryptos around already, yet BTC is alive. And I can't imagine a situation when all the people in the world would stop using bitcoin unless the Internet dies of course. I think we have all the reasons to suppose that bitcoin will never die. |

any sites out and around that are popular?
Im looking to do micro betting on outcomes we can deem are guaranteed fair and not relying on knowing how to verify provably fair.
This option, when implemented on a dice site for example, arouse abusing. People after claiming the faucet play with their alts, which means they always win in any case. Then they withdraw from an alt which has won the most. If you want to play with other players and not with the gambling site play poker. And if they use bots, like I heard some sites do, that's even better because you can easily turn that to your advantage. |
