...he is a complete ass and would sell a mess of BTC just to get back at all those who doubt him
....assuming Satoshi really is an 'anarchist' he could just sell so much and watch the BTC universe burn ..and still walk away with millions.


If that happened the dump wouldn't last long. Everyone would be scrambling to buy cheap coins, and afterwards any fear of Satoshi dumping would be gone forever. All those rich venture capitalists who are beginning to take an interest in Bitcoin would be competing to buy the cheap coins along with the rest of us.

If anyone dumped the price down to something ridiculous like $10 I would be throwing everything I could crape together to snatch the cheap coins before someone else bought them all.

In light of new information, I have revised the original estimate. I think you'll agree this is much more realistic now...





Where's the time scale on that chart? Substituting "much ignore" for the timescale makes the whole thing rather vague. Nobody can criticise you if Bitcoin hasn't hit $1100000 by any particular time.

If you want it confirmed fast you  could contact either quickseller or macbook-air and offer a small payment to get it confirmed.

This is an example of how much they charged ahmedjadoon a long time ago.

I faced a similar issue a few days back transaction not getting confirmed due to low fee but user "QuickSeller" got my transaction confirmed in minutes when I sent him 0.0001 BTC. He has access to some pool . PM him.

Macbook-air runs F2Pool, and quickseller has access to it, so they can get it to confirm your transaction,

I think macbook-air charges a minimal fee (to make it up to a regular amount that would generally be accepted by the network).
I contacted quickseller a while back to confirm mine and the fee was quite low then.

Thanks for the feedback. You are the first person I found since ahmedjadoon who said what they charge for confirming transactions. I suppose what they charge depends partly on how big the mempool is. When it was huge they must have charged more.

Why is everyone here is sure that Paul is in China, did he say to everyone before he left the US that he's going to China? What if he went there for a day then moved to another country and has been there for already a year at least I mean there are over 75 counties with no extradition treaty with the US! how many of these can he buy a passport with that much money he stole? and why I'm feeling like this could turn to a really nice movie lol

Although there are plenty of countries that will sell you a citizenship/passport I don't know how many will do it without contacting the country you were born in to verify your identity and ask questions about criminal records, etc.

Are there any countries that will do that? If there are they must at least want to check your current passport to verify your name. Surely there aren't any countries where you can buy citizenship under a name like John Smith without even a check on your passport.

If big Vern does manage to buy citizenship it will most likely be under the name Paul Vernon rather than John Smith.

Sure there is no extradition treaty but many people from the U S of A travel to China for holidays nowadays. Maybe an ex-Cryptsy investor or reporter might bump in to him. He could easily go to the US embassy in Beijing and make an offer to surrender on conditions that he return the investment that people lost and keeps most of the profit. What a fool he is...

If he's still in China he's probably there as an illegal alien. His visa must have expired by now, and I can't imagine how he could get another. He would stand out like a sore thumb in China, and all the locals would be talking about him. There must have been some Chinese cryptsy customers who he ripped off. It only takes one of them taking an interest in a new American living in the neighbourhood to blow his cover.

Bitfinex and Bitstamp are converging on price again ... $2600 is looking surprisingly stable.

Maybe we are in for some BIG sideways movements??

Apart from that spike down to $2522 earlier today on stamp it's been totally flat prices today. Also the walls are almost evenly balanced on both stamp and finex. I suspect this stability could last for months leaving us with nothing to speculate on. There are times when Bitcoin becomes more stable that some of the top fiat currencies.

You will get more help if you can tell us if you remember anything at all about the password. Can you remember roughly how long it is? Does it contain only letters and numbers, or does it also contain special characters? Is it completely random, or does it contain words?

jaxx wallet are not secure myself lost 0.4 eth
thank god it was small balance
i'm never using it again

What do you mean by lost? Do you mean they were stolen by someone using the exploit I referred to earlier? If are they still in the same Jaxx address you sent them to then a technical problem might be stopping you accessing them. Some users found they couldn't see their coins in the Jaxx wallet but managed to retrieve them using various technical workarounds.

Does a block explorer still show you coins in the your Jaxx wallet address?

hey hi-tec, I need only to save the seed for that wallet and I'll be safe right and I can restore it and log in it to other computers if I'm out of town?

Yes you can install electrum on another computer and restore your wallet from its seed words. All your transactions and coins will show up in it. If you restore from seed you can use any new password you like. You don't need a wallet's password, only the seed.

i just wondering how this transaction

Fees   0 BTC
Fee per byte   0 sat/B
Can pickup by miner.


Two people deliberately sent zero fee transactions some time ago to see if they would confirm. One confirmed after weeks, but the network forgot about the other transaction, and it never confirmed.

AntPool mined the block that confirmed the OP's zero fee transaction. You can pay AntPool to confirm transactions, and some users have access to an accelerator. Either he paid, or someone accelerated it for him, or AntPool mined it for nothing.

There are 9000 unconfirmed transactions at present, but a month or two ago there were over a quarter of a million. Now the network is less overloaded it's possible some pools might have started confirming some zero fee transactions again.
1972  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Supporting UASF on Electrum on: July 04, 2017, 01:07:01 PM
I dont get it,if i will hodl some bitcoins before everythins will start to happen about segwits and forks on my 2.8.3 Electrum,will I get somehow both new forks of BTC?

As long as you are holding your private keys, you have nothing to be worried about. I'm not entirely sure but I believe you should run a full node in order to have bitcoins in both chain (If there is a chain split) and that could be profitable If done right, wait someone to confirm this information though.

I don't think you need to run a full node to spend the same coins on twice on the two chains of a fork. Nevertheless, it appears you will have to jump through some hoops to do it using electrum. The dev wrote a guide explaining the procedure in electrum. The guide was for earlier worries about a different fork that never happened. However, it should also apply to any future fork.

http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/hardfork.html?highlight=fork


Thx alot!Im planning to keep some BTC amount on electrum during the fork.
But does that mean electrum isnt the best choice for holding coins during UASF UAHF times?

Wich one is OK then?

Any wallet that gives you control of your private keys is a good choice during a fork. Electrum is as good as any other wallet, especially considering that tutorial the dev made. Just use that tutorial if there's a fork.
1973  Economy / Speculation / Re: Any long term HODLers increasing the BTC stash by trading? on: July 04, 2017, 06:22:51 AM
...Trading is extremely difficult and it could also fu** up your nerves if you lose, even if it's just a small loss.

Besides trying your nerves trading can make you physically ill if you take it too seriously, and it's difficult not to when gambling a lot of money. Some traders wind up suffering from extreme sleep deprivation after staying awake for days on end waiting for the market to make a move. That alone can make you physically ill.
1974  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: BTC unconfirmed not shown on my wallet on: July 03, 2017, 10:54:52 PM

Another option for getting the transactions confirmed is contacting either quickseller or macbook-air and offering to pay to get them confirmed.

The quote provides an example of how much they charged in the past, but they might want more now.

I faced a similar issue a few days back transaction not getting confirmed due to low fee but user "QuickSeller" got my transaction confirmed in minutes when I sent him 0.0001 BTC. He has access to some pool . PM him.

Either of them can get F2Pool to confirm your transactions,

If you try it you will need to give them this list of transactions and ask for them to confirm them all.

No, there's four that I know of besides the original. Unmoderated, Phoenix Revision, Anarchy, and Reloaded. There could also be a few more I missed. Phoenix Revision and Anarchy are moderated, the other two aren't. Anarchy has 'light touch' moderation, and Phoenix Revision is stricter.

Its starting to look pretty bulish. Still needs to be confirmed by breaking 1 or 2 resistances above+perhaps retest, but it already looks like bears are running away from the fight
Up over 8% today, yes it looks quite bullish!
It has been in a corridor for a little while now, the price has been very volatile inside this $2200 to $2600 range, but it hasn't broken out for a while.

I think we might see a break out on the upside in the next day, then... ATH?

I like your thinking, would be amazing if we could break upwards towards $3000. It's long over due.

It was very close to $2600 at bitstamp earlier on, and it will take buying less than 300 coins to get there. If we can get above $2600 and stay above it for a few days then maybe the dip is over and a break out to $3000 could be possible. I'll keep an open mind though, I still think it could continue range bound for another few weeks.
1978  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Cold storage/Offline storage on: July 03, 2017, 03:01:44 PM
If you don't move your coins to a new address before a fork you don't have to do anything to protect your coins. Afterwards they would be valid on both chains, so if you wanted you could spend the same coins twice, once on each forked chain.

There were worries about an earlier fork that never happened. To cover that possibility electrum's dev wrote instructions explaining how to spend the same coins twice. You can find them at this link. They could easily be adapted for any fork that may occur.

http://docs.electrum.org/en/latest/hardfork.html?highlight=fork

Its getting confusing to me. I dont want to spend it twice I just want to keep my BTC a BTC Smiley

IMO it's unlikely you will ever have the opportunity to spend it twice, so you probably don't need to worry about it. The only way that could happen is if two forks occurred, neither died, and at least one exchange started a market for the alternative fork.

If there's an imminent risk of a fork just don't move your coins until the dust has died down.

You can buy through virwox but the fees are going to upset you. This is a better way of buying bitcoins without ID's, just look for someone you trust and have a deal with him locally.


Virwox accepts payments through creditcard/paypal, but you have to jump through some hoops to buy Bitcoins there.

https://www.virwox.com/

First you have to buy Linden Dollars (SLL) with the fiat money you sent. There are these markets for exchanging various fiat currencies to Linden Dollars.

EUR/SLL

https://www.virwox.com/market_depth.php?instr=1

GBP/SLL

https://www.virwox.com/market_depth.php?instr=2

USD/SLL

https://www.virwox.com/market_depth.php?instr=4

CHF/SLL

https://www.virwox.com/market_depth.php?instr=3

After buying Linden Dollars (SLL) with your fiat money you can then exchange them for Bitcoins at this market.

BTC/SLL

https://www.virwox.com/market_depth.php?instr=11

There is no virwox market for directly buying Bitcoins with fiat money. Although its fees are very high you don't have to provide pictures of you/ID or bank documents.
