1841  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Could Bitcoin be replaced by an altcoin? on: March 07, 2016, 01:48:54 PM
Bitcoin went from 95% market cap domination to 81% in the last months, the chance it being overtaken by the altcoin market is quite high at the moment, people start moving its money to other coins.

The free market will chose, we replace bitcoin or we replace Core.

With the halving and increase usage, next 6 months are critical, plan accordingly.

Dropbox got its seed funding from Y Combinator, go ask those guys so they can laugh at your "I need money and everything else to do yet another cloud storage service".
1844  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How am I losing bitcoin? Please see screenshots on: March 03, 2016, 05:35:58 PM
probably one of the incoming unconfirmed txes got dropped from the mempool. the btc will return to the sender's wallet if that happens.

Yap, this^

You need to check with sender, also some of those still unconfirmed may be discarded.
1845  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin's price is goin down on: March 03, 2016, 04:41:48 PM
And it will go even lower when people realize bitcoin will not scale in any meaningful way for at least the next 2 years.

Price will probably be in $100s in the next 2 years.

Bitcoin will scale, I 'm not worried in the slightest about that.
The thing is it might not scale as you want it to.
Price of $100 therefore is pure bs.

Only time will tell but $100 is too low even if an altcoin becomes the king. If things don't go too well it will still be valued around the $200 or $300 mark.

Exactly said. The reality is even when the market is very bad also the price of bitcoin has not went beneath the 350$. So we can be good faith that at any situation bitcoin won't go very low.

In the past year it went below $200 a couple times, $200 is not an unbreakable barrier, if worst case scenario happens, $100 to $200 bitcoins seems possible.

This could never happen. Is there any possible way to get back those bitcoins which were considered as the transaction charge. Is anyone heard of such incident other than this?

It happened at least one time before.

At least he got his transaction confirmed quickly. Smiley

F2Pool will return his money, I guess.

Stuff like this happened once or twice before, pools gave the money back.

1850  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mempool is now up to 25.5 MB with 22,200 transactions waiting. on: March 03, 2016, 09:41:30 AM
I'm sorry for the question I'm going to ask but there is something I just can't understand.

Blocks are not at all all full.
So why are the tx in the mempool not filling the blocks which are not full?

Some mining pools, AntPool, BW and BTCC, get a lot of empty blocks, miners don't really need to include transactions.

Nothing can be done, you need to wait, your transaction will either be confirmed or bitcoins returned to original sender address.

You can check network stats here:

https://chain.btc.com/en/

Fees here:

Good luck.

Correct, you cannot destroy a coin, you can just make it unspendable.

Mixers are just honeypots.

If you send your coins to anonymous people on the Internet, you're gonna have a bad time.

If they own the site they can do whatever they want with it, your opinion is irrelevant, you have nothing to say about what other people do with their websites.
1860  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Block size max cap should be raised to 2mb with block halving in July 2016 -Y/N? on: March 01, 2016, 06:19:40 PM
Yes.

Otherwise growth in Bitcoin is essentially capped and will move to other currencies. Speculators will also move on and the price will dip temporarily. This could possibly cause some spiraling issues... lower growth, lower price, higher fees, halved block reward. Bitcoin could lose their first mover and networking effect advantages in that type of situation.

Nothing can be done and nothing will be done, we will see the following scenario happening, plan accordingly:

Quote
WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF BITCOIN BLOCKS ARE AT FULL CAPACITY?

If the blocks reach full capacity before there is a functioning transaction
fee market in place, Bitcoin investors will likely see the price drop and may
experience difficulty withdrawing their coins from an exchange. Elsewhere
in the Bitcoin economy, problems could be much graver: casinos that literally
stop functioning, coin mixers screeching to a halt, and coin faucets that
run dry.

Faced with these difficulties, entrepreneurs running these services would
likely set up working alternatives by moving away from the Bitcoin blockchain.
This in turn would make the average block size drop significantly,
thus clearing up space for normal transaction confirmation times in the
network
.

The process of gambling and laundering services moving away from the
Bitcoin blockchain could cause a series of rallies in the altcoins (of which
we may already be seeing the start). Shared Coin, for example, includes any
fees within their transactions so that users can get quick access to their
laundered coins. If the block size limit is reached, transaction times will be
slower, and these users may switch from Bitcoin to altcoins.

It’s likely that for gambling and mixing, the most liquid altcoins will be
those highest in demand: Litecoin, actively traded in at least 17 markets,
and Dogecoin, actively traded in at least 7 markets.3 Privacy-oriented coins
such as Dash and Monero could see significant rallies. The short history of
altcoins suggests that when the most liquid coins rally, the rest are lifted
with the tide, resulting in short-lived but strong rallies.
