Da Tou is certainly not alone, the cryptocurrency world is so complicated one cannot beat their chest and say this is where they are and that is where they going. I think it has to do with the fact the technology is quite diversed and still evolving with many laying claims to it only from their point of interest . 

We have to see that this surge in the price of Litecoin for exactly what it is and it is the proponents of segwit pulling strings by pumping Litecoin, so to make a case that segwit is the proven way Bitcoin should also follow.. These increases in price are too sudden and we should expect a reversal sooner than later, because the whole idea is to pass a message across for segwit.

I understand most countries are trying hard to turn their societies into cashless ones because of the many advantages inherent with digital money especially the reduction in the cost of printing, shipping and securing bank notes. Everything is certainly not going to be tied around the internet - your debit and credit cards for instance are digital form of money not restricted for use only on the internet.

Nice to see another remittance company, doing business in Asia since 2014, picking up interest in Nigeria and its first presence in Africa. I have signed up to get acquainted with what they have to offer especially to confirm the claims of offering 14.4% better rate than the mid market FX! First I noticed there is no Nigerian physical presence on the site and the better rate isn't really a 14.4% less than what other companies are offering, but simply a 14.4% less than the mid market fx.
 
With my current remittance company, to remit N20,000 (twenty thousand naira,) I shall have to send 0.0344155BTC, whereas with your company, Bitspark, it comes down to 0.034BTC, if no other charges gets in the way. That is a difference of 1.12%, can't verify for buying Bitcoin with Naira, because ID verification is necessary. I want to suggest, you make the verification a one time thing, stored up in your database and request for it doesn't have to show up in every transaction.

The fear posed by super computers is unfounded as rising sea is sure to raise all boats, so encryption is sure not going to stay same, but will also advance inline with quantum computation.
 
One thing that needs to be cleared is that it is not Bitcoin per se that have been hacked so far in the exchanges, rather it was a break into their data base and it has been most in-house, just like anyone gaining access to your email address password can read and manipulate all your mails.

I quite agree Satoshi left for good so Bitcoin could evolve on its own. Evidently it wasn't an afterthought as even the choice of the name Satoshi signifies his moves were premeditated. Can the creator of something anonymous not understand what anonymity is all about? 
I think he can do so by not directly stepping into the shoes of Satoshi Nakamoto, but assume another personality. Resurfacing as Satoshi I think would rather take Bitcoin backwards, because it already moved on without  him and lots more division is sure to ensue.

Whoa! Wondering if you have ever traded or understands what forex trade is really all about! I think you need to know that forex trade has been in existence from long ago and it is rather crypto trading that just got started. Everyday average of $5.3 Trillion Dollars is traded in the forex market and there is no other market that compares to it in volume, see for yourself:

I am also working on how to exploit some arbitrage conditions in the crypto market and I suppose you will find this link useful. In case, you come across some other useful links, do also share here so other can see if it holds anything for them. Best of luck!

That was indeed some lucky runs for you and it is interesting to note you realized it is not fail proof and walked away with your windfall before the system gets used to your moves. By the way, I guess you were meaning to say your strategy is: preroll with minimum bet, after 6 losing streak, raise bet, after a win, return to pre-rolling until the condition is fulfilled again, not so?

You got me thinking that op was under the illusion that his balance of 12 Btc probably made him invincible or that it was an infinite amount, so he probably threw caution to the wind until the veil was off his eyes. 12 Btc is a huge amount and there are players that can certainly turn thing around with that much by prudently managing their games and it is indeed unfortunate he parted with that much.

That is right, chance to win has absolutely nothing to do with whether a player is playing manually or on auto. What advantage I think manual betting can bring a player, is the ability to effectively follow the game and make adjustments when necessary or possibly quite the game when danger is sensed.

Most dice sites unfortunately structure their bots to make setting of stop loss less precise, often leading players to lose even more instead of stopping the game after a specific amount have been lost. Most players however find use for dice bot as it gives them some tools to be specific on what to follow after a loss or after a certain amount is lost.

Shouldn't one begin to see the only integer chance as an advantage to a player given that it sums everything in between? In the same vein, isn't it disadvantageous  to play in a site with 3 decimal places, given that the probability of losing is further increased? Take for instance, playing 1.02x bet on a site with 3 decimal places outcome, would entail exposure to almost 30,000 numbers against a player.

So what exactly is your recommendation as it concerns investing, trading and localbitcoin? If you say trading is risky and so should be avoided, then you need to think again, because nothing, nothing gain. Localbitcoin remains what highlights the very essence of Bitcoin - peer-to-peer transactions and it does not become risky even while dealing with strangers unless you want it to.

No doubt Martingale strategy is most likely a dead end, especially in its crude form, but you need to know the reason they fail is not because they are mathematical assumptions, on the contrary they have every reason to be a success because numbers dont lie. One of the reasons Martingale fail is because the house is more capitalized than most players and not necessarily for not having infinite bankroll and there are some casinos that place maximum bet a player can play, thereby forcefully stopping the sequence of play, ultimately leading to a loss on the side of the player.

I don't agree with your take that looking in other Bitcoin forum would be a waste of time, because the overall goal is the spread of the right knowledge and information about Bitcoin and they do not in any way stand in the way or height Bitcointalk have attend. It is evident from the contributions of most newbies that lots of people out there are not literate enough in Bitcoin and its technology and confining  ourselves here certainly won't do all the work.

I quite agree with you, this isn't the right time for buying Bitcoin with the sole aim of holding, because Bitcoin  have made new highs recently and going by the nature of all financial assets, the likelihood of a retracement and correction is imminent before the next major move. That makes buying Bitcoin at this moment a dicey business decision. Instead a research on some altcoin with high volume and out of sync with the recent surges in price would make a better buy.

I don't think it is not necessary for a lender to know how to trade to be able to lend Bitcoin, but interest in Bitcoin definitely has to be there, to create the drive and faith. There is an added advantage with lending at Poloniex and it is that one's fund is relatively safer there than with going solo. Ultimately everything narrows down to the values a lender plans to accomplish - lower rates with security of funds or high rates with the attendant high risks. Better to move slow and steady than to climb hastily, only to end in some nasty fall.

That is like saying that mechanized farming is no better than subsistence agriculture. If you can come up with any profitable strategy, ten nothing stops you from putting same strategy in coded form and multiply you effort even a million fold as a bot is actually an assistant and becomes whatever you make it to be. Problem only starts if you engage just any bot out there to work and especially one you do not understand how or what they are coded to do.

I dont get what meaning you were trying to convey there, nevertheless, if you used to be active in pay-to-click programs - I was active in the past, you would have noticed a whole lot of programs that were grounded not because the owners meant to, but because Paypal locked their funds and refused to release them even after so members of the programs wrote to Paypal to release the funds. They seemed to be invisible back in the days, but thank goodness Bitcoin is now here and aint we beginning to see not just Paypal, but almost all other payment systems sitting up!

One of the qualities of money is that it should also be a store of value and gold is an asset that serves as a good store of value, so we can rightly say that gold is also a form of money which one can easily exchange for cash anytime anywhere across the globe. It is readily acceptable because people see it as a form of money.
