anyone got a list of porn sites that accept bitcoin?

old, but still valid (NSFW)

Code:
pornhub.com
youporn.com

Aren't they both free sites? What do you have to pay for? I can't see any mention of bitcoin on there (but lol at paying for porn).

I've always said buying and holding would be your best bet. I think Bitcoin rose by 7% recently so there's a bit of profit there. I'm sure we'll see hundreds of percent in profit eventually if we have the patience.

i agree. i have been stashing some coins for some time now. in the past month that the price was at a somewhat stable stage i tried to but at the bottoms and hold. i think the future price of bitcoin is looking good especially after the recent rise.

i would love to see bitcoin stable at 500 usd, it would actually save up more btc, i think the community deserves a 500 usd per btc.

Why only 500? Why not 1000? I'd settle for 500 don't get me wrong, but I think bitcoin has the potential to go back to 1k and stay there. I'm sure over time it will get there eventually as well.

Obviously someone knows your account alias so assume your details or computer is compromised. The email could also be a spoof or phishing mail though. Have you checked? I'd get a safe computer and change your wallet or send the coins to another safe wallet.
24  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: if I disconnect my pc will my BTC be safe on: June 05, 2015, 11:40:16 AM
Why don't you just keep the wallet file offline instead? No point just having a laptop not being used just to keep your coins safe when you can just store them on a flash drive or cd.
25  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Why blockchain charging charging high miner fee on: May 19, 2015, 02:04:59 PM
Simple, because there are many inputs in your transaction. So, the transaction size become bigger & blockchain.info increase the transaction fee, so your transaction can be confirmed.
You can reduce the fee manually, but it will take longer time to get confirmed

So how to avoid this so it should not take many inputs, is there any way?

I always use the custom send. You can manually change the fee in there and even set it to no fee if you wish. This may take a very long time to confirm however, or if there's a lot of inputs and you're sending dust it might not confirm at all and get sent back to you wallet.

I would rather choose to join a signature campaign which is safe way to grow your bitcoins and if I would become greedy someday and want to grow my bitcoins in a quick time I would prefer to go on gambling sites and take a risk to win some good amount of bitcoins.

That's a good waty to lose all your coins not grow them. Personally I just prefer to buy and earn coins with the intention of holding them for a while. I think in the long run bitcoins themselves will turn out to be a great investment.

That is just the nature of BCT. Has been for a long time, unfortunately.

It's not just this forum but practically the entire internet. Just pick any youtube video at random and read the comments. The internet just brings out the worst in people sometimes.
30  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-04-20] Investopedia: Why Governments Are Afraid Of Bitcoin on: April 22, 2015, 07:13:14 PM
I don't think there ever will be a government willing to fully adopt Bitcoin as they can't control everything around it.

That doesn't say they won't make a Bitcoin clone for themself where they control every process in full. That's more likely to happen at some point in the future.

They don't have to be able to control it. They'll just want their cut and they'll get it easy enough by regulating and taxing it. They don't need to do anything but just sit back and collect their money like they do with any taxes.
31  Economy / Lending / Re: Need a loan of 0.01 BTC with a valid colletral on: April 09, 2015, 09:20:07 AM
What do you mean it's a loan request for btcblogger? Why doesn't he make the loan or are you saying you need the money to pay him? Probably shouldn't engage in deals with getting the money first.
32  Economy / Lending / Re: I need a loan on: April 09, 2015, 09:17:11 AM
I can loan you a bit less with ur account as collateral.
Let me know if u are interested.
Regards

Sure you want to do this? You've already had a pretty bad deal with an account collateral  Undecided
And the investment sounds pretty risky - if one believes he can make more than 150% in 2 weeks with trading he's most likely falling into some trap.

Onkel Paul

When did i have a bad deal? This is my first time doing this

He's clearly responding the guy who offered you the loan. Not sure why he's even offering to lend any money though because this is a silly offer. I'm surprised you haven't got any negative feedback but I'm sure you will soon making these requests without collateral.
33  Economy / Speculation / Re: What would make you really worry? on: March 24, 2015, 09:27:11 AM
If I had to give a concrete answer, perhaps some worldwide coordinated government crackdown on Bitcoin's legality....which seems highly unlikely.
Those people could never stop us. We've been doing whatever we wanted since childhood. Fuck doing dishes, we played video games. If they make bad laws, we'll create new ones.

they can't stop bitcoin trading at all, you could always trade it face to face, if you know what you are doing.

in the worst case scenario we could use bitcoin to buy used thing, to evade taxes

Making it illegal or putting heavy restrictions on it will just push its use underground and trades would happen face to face, but putiing such severe restrictions on it could be the death blow to it being used as a legit currency which is what we want.
34  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is there any good news upcoming? on: March 24, 2015, 09:20:37 AM
Nobody can really predict what is good news just like we cannot predict the price. Sometimes good/great news is announced but the price either doesn't move or sometimes even falls. I think people just need to learn to patiently wait. Bitcoin will very likely see growth over time but these things take time to materialize.
35  Economy / Speculation / Re: I predict I will never make any money... on: March 10, 2015, 08:31:42 PM
He hasn't logged in since 22 February. That's what you get for betting a guy with 70 posts.
I'm sure if he won, he'd be all over the forum bragging and quoting that convo. Now he'll just abandon the account and look to make another bet.  Undecided

This is why you use escrow for these sorts of bets. It's never official until you shake on it ie send money to escrow) but he was likely never serious anyway.
36  Economy / Economics / Re: Money is an imaginary concept, but humanity is enslaved by it on: March 10, 2015, 08:28:46 PM
In most of the people's mind, money is a standard unit of value. Just like using meter to measure length and using kilogram to measure weight, people use money to measure value

Based on proven economy theory, value is decided by supply and demand: More supply and less demand will decrease the value, vice versa. However, this does not apply to money: Money can be used to purchase anything, the demand for money can be regarded as infinite. When demand is close to infinite, the supply will not change its value in any significant way. So for average household, the money's value feels the same for them regardless of money supply


Money is a means to get wealth but not wealth itself. I'd buy some property with that cash and turn it into intrinsic wealth. Obviously most people don't understand the economics or ethics of money, but if they did they'd probably be outraged.

Money is an imaginary concept, but humanity is enslaved by it

You could also say the same about god/religion.
37  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coin confirmed by work done by human? on: February 20, 2015, 03:34:17 PM
Hypothetical question. I'm just curious. Is it possible to make coin when transactions would be confirmed by work that is only possible for human to do and why is it bad or good idea?

Um.. why? There's a video on youtube of someone working out the bitcoin calculations on a piece of paper, but it's not feasible to have a system composed entirely of human confirmations. It would take too much time and human error would be rife so that's why it's automated with computers.
38  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bitcoin and Porn on: February 20, 2015, 03:27:13 PM
Does this mean street walkers will accept Bitcoin soon too? I don't think Bitcoin needs that king of notoriety.

Why not? Streetwalkers and drug dealers and child pornographers and arms dealers and corrupt bankers and politicians already accept fiat and that doesn't get a bad rep. If bitcoin is to become a worldwide currency people will need to be able to buy anything with it good or bad. The porn/sex industry should get aboard asap in my opinion and fuck the neysayers.
39  Other / Off-topic / Re: If BTC goes to $1000 or more, what would you do? on: February 06, 2015, 02:12:18 PM
Depends how long it takes to get to $1000. Slowl over time of shoots up? If it shoots up I'd likely sell a couple but keep holding for when it gets to 10k  Grin.
40  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Both sides proven inaccurate about concealed carry on: February 06, 2015, 02:10:21 PM
It's been a year since concealed carry went into effect in Illinois, the last state to legalize it. Both sides were wrong about the consequences: concealed carry has neither led to a rash of shootings, nor a wave of crimes prevented through the intervention of armed citizens. This just shows that rhetoric isn't very useful for making policy, I'd rather politicians stick to making policy based on reality and real-world cause and effect.


In Illinois, concealed carry of guns has quiet first year; expansion sought

Keith Hearn was getting out of his car in front of his home in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood when, as he tells it, police pulled up and told him he had committed a minor traffic offense.

Hearn, 34, has a concealed-carry license and said he voluntarily told the officers he had a handgun on him. Nonetheless, he said officers arrested him and took him to their station, claiming his gun was partly showing. After checking, he said, police found the concealed-carry law allows a gun to be "mostly" concealed, and let him go without charges.

"I was disgusted," Hearn said. "Why was I arrested, handcuffed in front of my neighborhood, when I didn't break any laws?"


He should thank himself lucky they didn't shoot him. Probably would have done if he was black.
