1902  Economy / Services / Re: [9 OPEN SLOTS] Rollin.io Signature Campaign - Earn up to 0.14 BTC Per Month! on: April 30, 2015, 12:09:54 AM
Posts made in the Off-topic, Games and rounds and Investor-based games sections will NOT be counted towards a user's 50 posts per month. (Rule added April 24th, 2015)

Different colours may be advisable. The sections which are not allowed is not visible at first glance.  Smiley



Since the H/L/Stf slots aren't filling very quickly....

4 more Hero/Legendary/Staff slots have been added to this campaign...

You may considering revising the payout for hero members. The difference between hero and senior members is not much. Campaigns launched in the last couple of months offer a higher pay for hero members.

I come back after three months to see if bitcoiners had given up and gotten jobs yet, here is bitcoin news summary of the three months:


You think three months is enough to judge something like Bitcoin? Come back after three years.
1904  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do girls use Bitcoin ? on: April 29, 2015, 11:51:52 PM
Are girls / women interested in Bitcoin ?
Your opinion ?
Girls are always less tech interested than guys, so simple conlusion they are not interested in Bitcoin.

At present Bitcoin may be considered tech, but very soon it may be as common as credit cards. I am sure girls use credit cards more than guys. Tongue
It will be the same with bitcoins too.
1905  Economy / Speculation / Re: You are not a real Bitcoiner if you don't buy now. Shame on you! on: April 26, 2015, 02:19:54 PM
isn't the real bitcoiner is someone who buy & use bitcoin as currency Roll Eyes

If only buy bitcoin, there are plenty investor who did it already Tongue
But, they will dump it when bitcoin price raise up
i don't mind using bitcoin directly when I can buy a $15mil mansion in LA for ~150 bitcoins.

I would sell half my stash too if this happens.  Smiley
1906  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When western countries introduce capital controls on: April 26, 2015, 02:18:23 PM

Certain governments actually enforce capital control to regulate cash flows in and out of the country to prevent currency manipulation and to certain extent protect their economy. This includes fx exchange, in general such as limiting the volume that can be traded at certain period.


And eventually they'll treat BTC in exactly the same way. I'm sure there'll be black market ways of buying in and cashing out, but whatever official exchange channels there'll be will be no more or less restricted.

There is a difference - If you are trying to take dollars / fiat currencies out of a country, there is a chance that you may be stopped at the border and your money may be seized. With Bitcoin, you just have to type the destination address and click send.  Smiley
1907  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the Impact of the New York Bit License on Start Ups? on: April 26, 2015, 02:08:11 PM
If you force people to pay $2 million just to be able to start bitcoin service or project it will harm our community. No individual investors, visionaries or people with a plan will be able to exist and change bitcoin. Instead people with thick wallets and corporates will dominate bitcoin. But I guess it is future and our current situation without regulations can be compared to wild west.

There will be a minimum scale above which compliance to stringent regulations will be made mandatory. The importance of not burdening startups with cumbersome regulations is understood by the people in power.  Smiley
1908  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When western countries introduce capital controls on: April 26, 2015, 02:10:07 AM
You will understand why Bitcoin has use.  If Bitcoins use to you is to get rich quick may a many a bear decimate your dreams.

A lot of countries in the developing world have capital controls already. Bitcoin provides an elegant way to sidestep them.  Smiley
1909  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Red button on: April 26, 2015, 02:07:40 AM
Hello,

I wonder what do you think about what that "red button" of the BTC network could be?

And what is its impact on the BTC network?

Because I like red buttons and I'm wondering when it's gonna be pushed !

Red buttons are passe.
Pulling the plug is the in thing.  Tongue

On a serious note, there can be no equivalent red button, not in the hands of Satoshi, not in the hands of the US Government, not in the hands of anybody.
1910  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are you bullish or bearish right now? on: April 25, 2015, 10:52:07 AM
I am an eternal long-term bull, who has just turned bearish for the short-term.
This rut seems to be a long one. Sad
1911  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Unbelievable amount of misinformation about Bitcoin on: April 25, 2015, 10:46:42 AM
Seems like Bitcoin is making it to papers across the world.
Soon, they will figure out what Bitcoin really is.  Smiley
1912  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: New report on Mt Gox’s missing bitcoins on: April 23, 2015, 12:01:56 AM
There were a lot of articles linking the suspicious timing of bitcoins disappearing and the bots, Willy & Marcus, dragging up the price. If this is true, then thankfully the 2 events are unrelated. Mt Gox's bitcoins had disappeared far before Willy & Marcus made an entrance.
1913  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When will BTC have a devoted/24 hr news channel on American TV??? on: April 22, 2015, 11:58:36 PM
Bitcoin is a novelty now and so there are articles which talk about it.
Once it becomes widely used as a currency, there may not even be articles specifically on Bitcoin.
So there is good chance we might never have a devoted BTC channel.  Smiley
1914  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: US Police Officer Charged with Receiving Stolen Bitcoin Miners on: April 21, 2015, 04:04:39 PM
A New Jersey police officer has been arrested and charged with receiving stolen property after allegedly selling stolen bitcoin mining equipment.

According to Somerset County Prosecutor Geoffrey D Soriano, Vincent Saggese, 32, of Metuchen, NJ, met with a Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office undercover detective twice and negotiated the sale of stolen KNC Miner Neptune devices.

SOURCE: http://www.coindesk.com/nj-cop-charged-with-receiving-stolen-bitcoin-miners/

Cop makes a quick buck by selling stolen goods.
It makes no difference to him whether he is selling a stolen car, TV or bitcoin miner.
1915  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Closing the loop - helping retailers not to sell their coins on: April 21, 2015, 04:02:48 PM
All Bitcoin-related companies need to offer salary in bitcoin.  Put up or shut up.

Not only salary, vendors and large manufacturers are the key. Once retailers can replenish their stock by paying their good in BTC, we can hope for less sell pressure and volatility.

We could even have bitcoin-denominated debt once this happens. Right now, banks have a stranglehold over companies. If well-rated companies offer bitcoin bonds, people might be willing to invest.
1916  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins hit Africa's money transfer traditions on: April 20, 2015, 05:12:06 PM
Finally the killer app is here: http://www.bitsim.co/

This "smart SIM extension" has great potential, because it uses simple SMS technology on non-feature phones. Contrary to the beliefs of some people in the Bitcoin community, 3G infrastructure is not widely available in most African countries (or is extremely costly to connect with) and even the cheapest feature phones are still too expensive compared to the average income in most of Africa.

Hopefully this will be available soon.

ya.ya.yo!

Sending bitcoins through sms has been possible for sometime now, right?
How is this different?
1917  Economy / Speculation / Re: The BTC Road to Double Digits Thread on: April 20, 2015, 12:40:01 AM
Double digits?
This road will soon hit a dead end, my friend.  Smiley
1918  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Closing the loop - helping retailers not to sell their coins on: April 20, 2015, 12:33:18 AM
What do you think about this idea CEO of 21 shared with the public?

Would introducing BTC vendors, besides consumers and merchants help BTC adoption and price increase?

http://www.coindesk.com/21-ceo-balaji-srinivasan-bitcoin-job-fair/

Yes. Ideally a bottom up approach would have worked.
The vendors at the start of the business chain should have adopted Bitcoin, followed by B2C companies.
The reverse would work too. Smiley
Having said that, we shouldn't really be bothered about the price now.
1919  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-04-19] americanbanker: Bitcoin Companies Pay Steep Fees for Bank Access on: April 19, 2015, 03:13:36 PM
Bitcoin Companies Pay Steep Fees for Bank Access

As financial institutions worldwide move to cut off relationships with industries that regulators consider risky, the few banks that serve these businesses are charging hefty fees for basic services.

http://www.americanbanker.com/news/national-regional/pot-bitcoin-companies-pay-steep-fees-for-bank-access-1073710-1.html

Aren't the fees which banks can charge regulated?
Banks do provide a public service and the charges which are levied can be questioned.
1920  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-04-16] Factom Will Sell Up to 100% of its Bitcoin Reserves on: April 18, 2015, 10:42:33 AM
Reminds me of the Ethereum Bitcoin dump. They had dumped some 30K coins all of a sudden, which crashed the Bitcoin prices then. And now it is the turn of Factom to dump their coins.
I wonder why they use Bitcoin for their fundraisers and not wire transfers like bitcoins are bought.


Bitcoin is a better currency? Smiley
It would be easy to transfer small amounts across the globe without worrying about transaction costs if we use Bitcoin.
