Monero - 0.5 BTCEth - 0.2 BTCGolem - 0.1 BTCByteBall - 0.1 BTCWill hold the other 0.1 BTC as the rate of Bitcoin is also raising.. Liked the concept of Monero and it's gradually increasing.

This might be much stupid incident than others. One morning when I was a newbie in the Bitcoin world, I was learning about trading and was trying to make some transactions. I used to check the rates regularly but never tried to buy or sell. But this time I felt to buy n sell, long story short I sold my bitcoins for a lower price and bought the same amount of Bitcoins for a higher price.. Lost more than 0.1 BTC..

Just done logged in coinbase and its still working. If I were you dont store all your bitcoin in one wallet. Because coinbase is often down system and its working fine. Maybe you could store your other bitcoin in other wallet...
Coinbase has this problem from long time. It's not a safe place to keep your bitcoins, it's a good exchange but comparatively less secure. Also the load time is pretty high and three confirmations getting late day by day is giving headache..

As long as there is fluctuations and variations in the rate of Bitcoin, I don't think people ever will stop transacting it. Transaction fees are just incentive for the miners, they don't live on transaction fees. So it'll be an impossible situation to happen because people right now are pouring in to the Bitcoin for its value..

Im already utilizing bitcoin everyday by doing trading an altcoins, trading also of bitcoins. I beleive by using bitcoin everyday Im utilizing it. There are also other ways we can utilize bitcoin because bitcoin is very rapidly growing daily.
Trade or gamble the money which you are not bothered if you loose. To OP: I don't see any method in your website, it's just plain trading. Experience is the best teacher for trading. Start small, learn the things and then try with big money.

Obviously he never advertised Bitcoin as other altcoin developers doing it right now. There were very less transactions for many years. People didn't bother about it and just kept on thinking that it's another scam scheme. But those who invested, trusted and understood Bitcoin are a success now.

- ability to send/receive PMs is a must - I would love to be able to quick copy/fill (with TAB) name of the user I want to talk to - I would like my name to be highlighted when someone has typed it - some basic chat commands: /ignore, /disconnect, /clear - chat statuses like AFK, Online, Busy
This is pretty much it. But it would be nice if theres a notification that someone messaged you. It would also be nice if we can block trollers in chat. I would like to add another to this list and that would be chat suggestions, that will make the things faster than usual.

ByteBall looks promising to me so I have invested in that and also trying to buy more.. Liked Monero for sometime and got good profit with it. Got even in dogecoin..

First of all, congratulations.. and yes I can understand the problems miner's faced in the early days and trading became a life now.. a great story to listen, hope to get more from you but about the details in mining..

What I do is put targets for my buy and sell, that way I buy or sell at a desired price, no trader can be 100% right about rise or fall, but there will be hints if you are up to date with all the news and dollar price graph. Ur comes with experience. Right now because of the fluctuations the short term targets are easy but for long term you have to be patient.

The Title : This is not Satoshi Drama,this is Craig Wright just being a dick like he always does.
I literally rolled on the floor when they connected development of bitcoin as a way to enhance online gambling.Is he trying to ban bitcoin now ?
I don't think he has anything good for the Bitcoin community. He just thinks about his own lime light in the drama from the beginning. There are many people here wants to know who Satoshi is, but it's upto him to reveal himself or stay behind the curtain. Craig is portraying Bitcoin as a way to all the negative things that's not good.

I don't consider any of them to be evil. I have made good experiences with both of them, although I have made much more payments with paypal that I made with bitcoin. Paypal is a business. The whole concern is built to make profit. Bitcoin is no concern. But the miners, and they represent the most important part of bitcoin, they mine because they want to make profit as well. For the user, the main difference is if they want to sell, or buy.
Actually the main difference is that in PayPal, there are people who decide what will happen with your transaction or money when someone makes a dispute. Bitcoin is definitely the lesser evil of the two. There are very less points to be considered as evil when it comes to Bitcoin.

duration of transaction confirmation is still an obstacle for bitcoin I thought it was too hastily to make bitcoin stores in major countries, so will be a long wait at the time of payment
The delay in the transactions is a big hurdle right now to make this idea get through. Sometimes it take more than 48 hours for a transaction to get 1 confirmation. If it was instant as it used to be then Bitcoin shop idea would have been a great success in increasing the popularity of the the Bitcoin and also altcoins.

Of course they did, but it doesn't matter.
Is there any proof of that..? We may never know who is Satoshi in the first place. Even if CIA had got hold of him then they would have tried to do some harm to the core. I feel CIA has other important things to do rather than using their resources to find Satoshi.

I once read an article that drug dealers in jail because of a trade using bitcoin, but many say that bitcoin is a tool for crime because many loopholes that exist in the currency bitcoin as anonymity
They are not loopholes but people use it for the negative purposes. The OP is asking as if it can prevent scams, well, if you use a trusted escrow service then most probably yes and if you think, Bitcoin can indirectly prevent crimes as people can earn them for their daily needs rather than thinking of doing crimes..

Theres no accurate answer for this one since we dont know how many people do use bitcoin all transaction and wallet address doesnt belong in each person since there are people do have many wallet addresses which means its really hard to determine.
That is certainly no data could be accountable, so that we can estimate only. I think, more than 3 million users, probably around 5 million, and china is the largest user. This thing we can see from the bitcoin market in china. By getting the total number of wallets present in all the exchanges we can just speculate the total number of users as a person can hold multiple wallets in many websites.. It'll be like finding the total number of users who do emails by getting the number from total accounts from service providers. Seeing the number of transactions happen everyday, we can say that it's definitely more than 3 million.

Gambling definition (Oxford Dictionary):
1. Play games of chance for money; bet.
2. Take risky action in the hope of a desired result.
Gambling in the sense of playing on Bitcoin casinos etc are just a game of chance and have an entirely random result. Trading is skilled - it may well be taking "risky action in the hope of a desired result" but it is definitely not based on chance or luck as there are a huge host of factors leading to different results and the trader can decide how to act based on his or her discretion.
"In the hope of desired result.." That's the biggest difference between gambling and trading. In trading the decision will be in your hand, where as in gambling only luck matters. You may get some returns in trading but in gambling you either win or loose.

Thanks everyone.
The first time I installed Electrum it didn't work.
Now I re-installed it after a new o.s. installation and all well.
I transferred a small amount of BC from my blockchain.info account and I see it appear in Electrum but as unconfirmed:
Balance: 0.BTC [+0.016 unconfirmed]
Why is that?
The confirmations in the transactions are getting delayed now. Because the number of users and transactions are high and miners for confirmations are comparatively less.. I hope it is confirmed now or reply your txn id here..

With 0.2-0.3BTC you will not make much profit with investing in casinos and even investing in casinos is not a profitable investment right now as it depends allot on how the site is and how much profit it'll make in the future. Rather than that try to do trading in Bitcoin or altcoins, that is possible with 0.2-0.3BTC and will be profitable with some skills.

Well it is hard to be answered, segwit is solution for bitcoin's problem but right now it becomes problem for bitcoins because of many people are dissagree with segwit especially the miners from China although the segwit will be activated it needs much time and hard discussion for activation of it. But if still there are no solution for activation the segwit must there are other ways fixing bitcoin's problem except segwit.
HARDFORK..? I would prefer to go with segwit than HARDFORK. We all know that it is not an easy task to integrate and activate segwit in the blockchain and we don't have any better solution also and the situations getting worse day by day as the delay in transactions getting more and people are forced to pay more fees..
