Cryptopia supposedly was to fix wallet issue by Monday.  Well Monday in NZ has come and gone, no change.  

Here is video proof that their front end specialist was working on it all day.

ether can stop tanking any time here...dammit

Truly looks like a bit of an un-flippening going on IMO...  

I expect a bit of a pushback around 11850.  Wonder if we will make it there.

My brief stint with Ether was actually with the token, the DAO. Didn't end well for me...

Reminds me of my new drinking game. Every morning there isn't a spectacular crashy pull back I take a shot.

Yes, these days without a big pullback have left me with several bids that are being left in the dust. Oh well, each bid only represents about 1% of my holdings, so overall the 99% of my holdings are looking better. I won't be inventing any drinking games though, to celebrate. I have been on the wagon since 2009.

Whats with these huge sell walls ??

1100 BTC between the current 10,8k and 11k ...

(@Bitstamp)

My guess is either the whale(s) has/have a short position to cover or they want to suppress the price, so they can accumulate for a later pump.

Just find it funny that the American Revolution was sparked in part by a 5% tax.  They would be burning everything in sight if they had to deal with today's taxes.  

Calculated my effective tax was about 55% at one point.  Income Fed/State Tax, SS, Medicare, Property, Sales taxes on everything you buy.  It's getting out of control really.

Blame the current income tax situation on the prohibitionists. In order to get alcohol banned, the government needed to come up with an alternate source of revenue. Unfortunately, by the time prohibition got repealed, FDR came into power and the government wanted the extra money for the New Deal. Later they wanted to fund a war. Now the US federal government is bloated in social programs and "defense." Not sure why the US feels it needs to outspend the rest of the nations in defense. It's especially ridiculous since most of the wars the US have been involved in since WWII have resulted in stalemates or a loss. Only victory that I recall was Operation Desert Storm.

It seems the transaction was done in 2016. I am sure they will just have to review his tax report, check the transaction was properly accounted for and everything will be fine.

Btw, what's up with legal fees in USA? He estimates his lawyers fees will be $150K-$300K?Huh

If he had an actual lawyer he wouldn't be tweeting like a moron.

I love how he requests donations in Bitcoins for his legal fees and then admits that he obtains goods and services with only BTC. Hope he paid his taxes on all of that. Otherwise, he is just compounding his woes.

He can make up any BS story he likes.  AML is taken really seriously.  Anyone doing Local Bitcoin is asking for trouble.  If you are taking large quantities of fiat in a brown paper bag in an alley, maybe you should stop and think for a second.

Using Local Bitcoin should be fine as long as the transaction is small, (Under 10,000 I believe) and there is no way of you reasonably knowing that either the cash or the BTC was obtained from or shall be used for illegal activity. Also, you need to be sure that you are not charging a premium or they can get you for being an unregistered money transmitter.

So, when are we going to hit $1,000,000?

BTC will be $1,000,000 at about the same time that a loaf of Wonder Bread costs $50.00. Which may be sooner than we all think..

It would be really nice if F2Pool decided to help us clean up this garbage in the mempool. This hard line they have set up of only verifying tx at 5sats/byte and above really irks me. Roll Eyes

... it's not really that surprising, for a long time now the default in the bitcoin core (satoshi) client has been to treat TX with fees 5 sat/byte and lower as spam. In fact, I think the default setting is to not even relay TX with 5 sat/byte or less fee.

Those defaults may need revisiting now that value is at ~$10k per btc (or ~10cents for a regular 225 byte TX). It's been a shortcoming for a long time that 'spam' TX need defining by default/hardcode selections in the client network (bitcoin network has no way to know external valuations trustlessly) but a functioning fee market is showing a way to removing those completely now ... think of them as 'training wheels'.

I guess that I will give them a pass. Some of the transactions with the low fee getting confirmed are really suspect anyway. Who really needs to combine 20+ UTXO, that are all exactly 17562 sats or some nonsense? They look suspect to me, but I suppose they could be legit.

Anyone know, when will the bwk deposit be unlocked on cryptopia? Got tired of waiting. I wrote up a ticket but cryptopia support do not response.

I think that I read in an earlier post that they will work on it on Monday. How long it may take for their purported work to be successful is anyone's guess.

Wasn't the internet fairly unpopular until 2012ish

what?

Yes, I remember back in 2011 when I could only write letters in longhand to loved ones and rely on the Pony Express for fast delivery. I also had to walk to work, 10 miles in the snow. Uphill both ways!

Some day I will run out of popcorns: https://litecoinca.sh/

I think I should better go to bed already and maybe wake up tomorrow at or really near $10K. We deserve it.

Let me get this straight...so Litecoin basically took the Bitcoin code and changed it to Proof of Stake and raised the max 4 times.

Litecoin cash is taking the Litecoin code and changing it back to Proof of Work...and raising the max 10 times.

Umm...makes total sense.

No Litecoin did not change to proof of stake. They changed the POW algo from SHA256 to scrypt. Now this fork, Litecoin Cash, is changing the POW algo back to SHA256, so you can use your old ASIC. Actually, being able to use your old ASICS is not what is going to happen. There are shit coins coming out all the time with SHA256 POW algo. What happens is that people still use their more modern ASICS. The obsolete ASICS are not going to be profitable, either.

All exchange charge 100k sats and its ridiculous... Huh  Roll Eyes

It is ridiculous if you turn around and only submit a 1500 sat fee in the actual transaction. Cryptopia gets $9.50 and miners get 15 cents? Didn't I already pay enough fees when I bought and sold on the exchange? That profit margin for a withdrawal on Cryptopia is a worse deal than a soda pop at the movies. Cheesy I would not have minded this one bit if Cryptopia had actually submitted the transaction to the BTC network with a high fee as well.

I have had repeated problems with Cryptopia over the years. They don't maintain their site properly. I really don't see how they justify charging fees to use their exchange.
I made a test send of 2 BWK to Cryptopia which now has over 1700 confirmations but they don't credit me with it.

Quite a few months ago I sent over 600 SIGT to their "exchange" and they never showed up. I sent a support ticket and they told me they had de-listed the coin, but they hadn't bothered to remove the deposit wallet addresses from people's accounts. They just put some notice in their "news" section about de-listing SIGT but who ever reads some separate news section on an exchange? As far as I'm concerned they stole my coins.

Now they seem to have stolen my 2 BWK too.

Given that they are (although crap) the biggest exchange trading BWK, it would be nice if the BWK dev/s would contact them and try to kick their asses a bit.


Wallet is not synced yet




It took me less than 5 minutes to sync my wallet from scratch. Granted, I don't have a whole bunch of wallets, or a website to service, but this is ridiculous. I just withdrew all of my BTC from them. Thank God that did go through. I believe that the BWK devs have been in contact with them. However, they just appear to give them some lame excuses. I only sent 5 BWK to them which is unaccounted for. But I am small fry. I'm sure some bigger fish than me are getting bent over with no lube. Also, I follow Byteball and Bismuth threads. It appears Cryptopia can't solve the issues with their wallet for those coins either.

Edit: WTF, they charge me a 100K sat fee to withdraw but only pay a fee of 0.00001562 to the miners. What a ripoff. Also, since the last BTC block was over 48 minutes ago, the mempool has backed up a bit, so it will not be confirmed in the next block. For a 100k sat fee, I want confirmation within one block. Fuck Cryptopia.

Good lord. Who decided fill up the mempool? Did someone think it was a good time to try and consolidate all of their dust UTXO? Coinbase, was that you?

I need a bot

I'd like one too, but knowing my luck, I'd set it up wrong and see my tiny holdings dwindle to nothing. I do have a website/bot handle my margin lending on POLO. However, I check POLO twice a day anyway, and just manually post some of my offers. The bot is somewhat slow. However, it stops me from going into POLO all night long to manually post offers.

we need people to open tickets @ cryptopia to alert them , because this is getting outta hand.

I did but it says it takes them 20 days to respond to tickets.

I thought DCG was busy with ETC now. Btw... is there any "transparency report" on DCG positions on the different coins?

Not sure. Just putting on my tinfoil hat and blaming DCG for everything. Cheesy Only thing that I can find about their holdings is this page. http://dcg.co/portfolio/ No numbers though.

Wow, that's a HUGE investments portfolio. It basically covers *ALL* crypto enterprises there is. Useless to figure out their "coin" positions though.

The only thing it is sure is that it is in their best interest that whole crypto market succeeds. No way out for them.

That's why DCG is my go to for explaining many pump and dumps. Barry has his tentacles in all of the action.

WTH??? Did I miss something.. I'm not selling any more LTC until I find out what's going on.

I checked Charlie Lee's twitter feed and don't see anything monumental. Perhaps DCG has decided to pump LTC up so they can offload at a premium.
