21  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin trading volume, and the importance of Alts to the Bitcoin Eco-system on: November 27, 2013, 10:25:47 AM
someone on the Wall Observer BTC/USD thread mentioned that Bitcoin price at BTC-e is $100 shorter   comparing to Gox and Bitstamp, so I remembered that I once wanted to deposit some Fiat in order to try arbitrage between Bitstamp and BTC-e (buy at BTC-e and sell at stamp), the surprising thing was that they acquire so much fee and they ask you to mark the deposit as it was meant for advertisement.... when I calculated what I would make of it I found out at the time it would cost me more to buy Bitcoins at BTC-e than at Bitstamp ( price was only $30 shorter than Bitstamp).


the point is that I was checking again, and the BTC-e Bitcoin order book was so small, so I made some research and I was amazed:


BTC-e Volume the last 24 hours combined on all pairs (alts) Is almost equal to Gox and stamp together:





Litecoin Trading Volume is the biggest and most surprising that Today comparing to the last few days is really small





so based on these charts I went and looked for transactions on both networks and again I was amazed when I looked to the last 24 hours Transactions, compare these charts

Litecoin




Bitcoin







now I believe that Strong Alts such Litecoin are really necessary for the long Term health of the eco-system, and even when I start thinking about the block size limit, we would not like to spam Bitcoin with worthless transaction when it goes more mainstream, as Litecoin can handle 4 blocks in 10 minutes it would make more sense to use the smaller transaction with Litecoin and Keep the big ones for Bitcoin.









Where is BTC China?Huh

Blockchain.info allows you to send transactions that don't fulfill the minimum fee.  If you are lucky they get confirmed within a day or two, but they may get stuck.

Fair enough, is there anyway to tell armory you wish to override it's recommendation? I understand it can (and probably will) get stuck, but, I still want to be able to do it.
This I want set my fee regrades of consequence.

It's actually very easy, because only one person is compiling 'official' bitcoin client which is used by thousands users, force this person to corrupt, backdoor 'official' client and you can destroy bitcoin in just few second... and don't give me argument you 'can Compile it yourself' 90% use standard bitcoin-qt client.
No, they use gitian: https://gitian.org/
Ok false alarm then ... Cool

33  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The "51% attack", what is it exactly ? on: November 08, 2013, 01:08:41 PM
Hello,

Last days I keep reading absurd claims like bitcoin is broken because of some possible 51% attack. From what I read a pool that reaches 51% could create blocks that shouldnt be there, but as far as i know a bitcoin pool still consists of hundreds if not thousands of individual miners ?

Can anyone explain this to me ? and why this is BS if it is ?

Thanks  Grin
I little exaggerated here but is like tunneling effect in physics, electron do it all the time but try do it with 1000 of them in the same time and problems starts, In theory if you throw ball it have chance to go through wall, but good luck with that...

It is hard to decide, but is china better than usa? At least the site you linked isn't being censored but is free to show that 
Because they don't care, they will do what they want anyway if you get in they way  thay will kill you or lock and throw  key away (like teeneger Justin Carter locked for months for comments on facebook  ), USA have biggest prison population in the world.

37  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BREAKING NEWS: Bitcoin ATM on Xinwen Lianbo of CCTV (China) on: October 28, 2013, 04:01:43 PM
Xinwen Lianbo is unique because it's the only program required to be syndicated to ALL TV stations at 19:00. Basically, when you turn on your TV in China at 19:00, there is nothing else on, except Xinwen Lianbo. It is the voice of the CCP.

Only *retarded, brainwashed Chinese watch that shit* - a quote from my wife and something I would agree with having watched CCTV 9 here before (I stopped watching it years ago as does *anyone* who lives here for more than a year).

Now replace Xinwen Lianbo with Fox, CNN, BBC in prime time (pluse they didnt mention then bitcoin is for drug cartels, phedofile and criminals). Do you see now ......

MtGox could be closed tomorrow.

This is clearly not the case, because by that rationale, it would have already happened. Mt. Gox can still operate it's Japanese bank accounts denominated in all currencies...

No, shutting down unregulated gambling sites and exchanges is LOW PRIORITY.

The US takes it's sweet time...
Bureaucrats usually spend 2-3 years building a case...
Identifying principals involved and observing an operation...
Then, "suddenly", the site goes down in 5 minutes.

That's what happened with Full Tilt Poker... 5-10 times bigger than MtGox.

The principals are then charged with crimes carrying huge jail sentences...
Linked to drugs, terrorism, porn, etc...
The principals are invariably extradited or have to go on the run...
Then the whole thing is negotiated with $1000/hour lawyers...
But the business disappears overnight.

Rinse and repeat.

One has to be in complete denial...
To think MtGox or Bitstamp is different from LR or FTP.


 
If they give bitcoin 2-3 years it will be too late for them and MtGox, Bitstamp will be irreverent in 2-3 years time.
