Ask yourself a question that by saying it, you completely agree and are bound to follow all those "rules" that are needed in order to "regulate" bitcoins? I am completely satisfied on your stance about illegal activities to be stopped after this, but on the other hand, don't you think we are again going on the same path to becoming slaves of the government where we will need to give eachand every info of our transactions to them? At present, they are only tracing your fiat finances, but once bitcoin becomes a regulated thing, centralization will surely take place and mark my words, none will be supporting it but will only let us all back off of it.


Neither bitcoin is supported here, nor they are against it here in my country because it's going mainstream, so they are not talking it too much due to the fact that the more they will say anything about it, the more it will gain attention.

Having a wallet installed on a PC or smartphone doesn't matter, what matters are those adverts that pop-up and ask you to "install" their softwares that promise you to protect/safeguard your PC/phone from threats, but they are threats themselves to your machine/cell. It's better to keep one safe thing just for the purpose of Bitcoins' storage (you can buy a cheap smartphone and use it for the purpose of storing Bitcoins only - a cold storage). If you do not surf internet on it and won't download anything except your wallet, you are fine. If your PC is not safe when you visit some websites which have the potential to suck the computational power out of your PC without your consent to mine any coin, do you think wallets are that safe?

I know that Hero/Legendary slots are full and that I am late, so giving this a shot for a Sr. Member slot (if available).

Waiting would not be fine currently as the value is higher but can break the 10k levels really soon if 8500 target is reached before the end of November (which looks quite easy as the current rate is 8233 while I am writing this). I think it's still a better choice if you decide it on your own as if your knowledge doesn't allow you to get in atm, then I would ask you not to buy. The reason why I believe it may still shoot up is that mainstream is calling Bitcoins and it's being spread like wildfire and the Bitcoin economy is taking a whole new shape where it's not going to be the same.

It's simple, ask the merchant to refund you and if they have any refund policy for such canceled transactions, then they must help you by sending your coins back to you. It was not the merchant's fault either as the fee that you put was "exceptional" enough to get your tx confirmed in seconds. 
Try to pay better fees next time you buy something from an online merchant, so that you may not get "trapped" in the fee web.

Sorry for your loss as well as the mistake you committed. Can you please post the proof of your transaction (the address from which you sent and the address they received it at, as well as a signed message from your "sent" address)?
You must have taken a screenshot of them showing the address where you sent your BTC as it would work way better and could even help you get a refund processed if they are found guilty.
They also have an online chat facility, if you can't try it out please show us your tx id and we will do it for you.

UPDATE: Sorry for the long delay as I was busy with some issues. The value went down to 5750 and was shot back to very 7900 and is currently 8k. We have our next target at 8500 which holds as a resistance for now based on price action, and I believe that it will break that very soon as we are extremely near to that target and once broken, 11k won't be too far. The base for this increase is the surge in investors who are getting added to the list and pushing the prices higher as they have something huge in mind. Stay calm, hold tight and let the Btc rock.

Hi Atriz, I have applied for signature campaign here.
Hope to work once again with you.

Hi, I know I am a Legendary but would like to take the Hero spot because I am looking for a long-duration campaign and I believe this is the one I was in search of. If you think I am eligible, please let me in.

What made you feel like that? Scaleability? S2X was a hope? Nope. S2X was just another plan like BCH (in my views) and everybody wanted it for free coins, nothing else as they don't know what scaling is, they are just in for free money. And by the way, Bitcoin has already managed to scale the transactions and fees way better than it used to, after having SegWit into effect which helped it compress the transactions to include more of them and confirm faster with lower* fees.

* = Depends on a per-transactions basis.


Nobody wanted S2X IMHO, so where's their hope diminished? Isn't it still there?
It will not go under 6k, mark my words.

That's what the "TRADERS" do, but "INVESTORS" don't think the same way.
Traders sell at highs while investors wait for it to decline to buy some more stash.
Traders speculate market's moves, investors decide market's wagers.
"Think as an investor" is my advice to those who believe that selling off is better.
If you will not hold, I believe you aren't ought to see those prices you speak about.

I won't just go with the market's decision alone because demand and supply is what matters a lot and you can see yourself that the demand has risen from dust to skies which conglomerated investors to put their money into something called as the "most safe-haven ASSET" of 2017. Markets are looking for better proceedings from investors which is why we may see a "small" correction (not crash) in the next few days after which the spike that you are speaking about, will surely take place. And by the way, 7500 wasn't the peak but 7600 is the ATH for now.

Can you please enlighten me on quantum computing? And how it differs from the current mining propagation?
I believe that if Bitcoin goes PoS (which is really good and will undoubtedly save too much energy that these "bulky" mining equipments are consuming), its value will bust and become dust (possibly) because they are buying it as mining is the only thing that's giving much better rewards which I believe that even after implementing PoS, they won't be getting and even if they do, it will be worthless. They are not mining, they are "working" it out to support the whole network which is needed under the protocol.

Your thread should have been located in Services first, because there you will be able to find any such entities you need for your work.
I can handle marketing part, though I don't have any threads here but I have experience with certain Medical companies I used to work with.
PM me any of your social media account's username, let's talk. And if I believe in your project, we will work it out.

I believe it's not, because fork was one of the major reasons why BTC spiked to new ATHs.
But after their pre-announcement of fork cancellation has put Bitcoins open to some sudden crash possibilities.
If not, it will still follow the correction pattern before it starts to rush again towards 10k for real.


10k looks reasonable here as Bitcoin still holds above 7150 and this shows that the support of buyers is really strong to keep it holding over there.
It's just 30-35% above the current value, so won't take longer to be there.

It's time for a small correction, so wait and see the rebound and get in once it stops somewhere near 6500 (that's what I am seeing on the charts in the next 3-5 days) after which it will skyrocket and consolidate towards a new ATH which will be possibly near 10k. I believe we are in the middle of a big historic decision yet as S2X was just a fake part, but the real one will make it hit to our expected levels.

Stop talking childish because everyone here can at least speculate here and sometimes they really get firm results out of it.
The reasons behind that is they know the news before general public (some special whales) or people like us speculate things here based on knowledge and news about the markets. You need to completely understand the difference between facts and rumors and we can surely know market's moves that it will make in the short term.

Mining needs too much investment as well as stash and hardware in order to have a start up in this lean field. It would cost no less than 2500 - 10k USD to buy all the equipment you need to begin with mining during current days. Investing in Bitcoins will also be very expensive but it gives much better returns as well as possess less risks compared to mining where your electricity could cost higher or even cut off which will lessen the efficiency of your mining equipment.

Nope, because when their previous games were running smoothly and they managed to give best returns to their investors, I smelled some catch behind the scenes. They went off saying that someone won big over there and they were unable to give back even the capital amounts. After all this, they came up with their ICO believing that everyone will trust them back, but they only flipped down to get a measly 5 - 10 Bitcoin investment (which is also not less than 35-40k USD). I can't believe how others put trust on them.


Agree with you that we should all stay away from them at any cost and should not even think of playing back there.
