I use Bitfinex for that. It's good and trustworthy. There are allot of things we haven't know about, It took me like 2 months to use it properly as per my need. Good luck.  Smiley

Fuck China. They always complain how something affect their economy in a negative way. They affect their economy in a negative way trying to control EVERYTHING.
Yeah I agree. I do not like the China and it is very terrible to live in a control which is near the China. I have to do a lot of thing to go abroad to work and stay away from Chinese in my country. LOL. They irritate me and other people and everything else on this planet. ONly God knows how to deal with them
It is a speculation and also there are some serious allegations on Chinese that they are trying to manipulate and control the value of Bitcoins. Although there is no solid proof for that but if you see the Chinese market then you will know that Bitcoin price raise and drop when there is a rise and drop in the local currency.
2143  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bribing via bitcoin a good idea? on: February 18, 2017, 06:16:16 AM
Bribing via bitcoin is easy and highly secure that other than the bribe giver and receiver knows it. Recently too in US a Pastor was convicted for bribe through bitcoin. It has come to the court for hearing, on the first day its found that $15000 worth bitcoin was received in the form of church donation.

There are many cases coming around from the world. People are misusing it anonymity for their best. No one else need to know about this transaction other than the sender and receiver.

That is reality, and is a bad idea, it is misconduct and bad. I hate people like that. If you do that, you are a criminal. Bitcoin currency is a clean, your ideas are denigrate the value of Bitcoin

This is the main reason why most of the merchants and institutes don't want to use Bitcoin as a payment gateway. It makes them feel that someone will point out that they are misusing the money only because they are using Bitcoin. It's a loss to all the Bitcoin community.
2144  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] BITSANE.COM Cryptocurrency Exchange Platform Is Now Live on: February 17, 2017, 12:12:41 PM
How many of use are actually using bitsane as our primary exchange?I have a suggestion to Bitsane admin.Start sending payments to signature participants in their bitsane wallet.Almost all exchanges that run their signature campaign here ask participants to sign up at their exchange and send payment to their wallet.

I too have thought about this thing before but the problem with this idea is that most of the people who do signature campaigns, do it just for the money. They don't trade o anything. They just take the Bitcoin and transfer it to their fiat or sell it.  Roll Eyes
2145  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could BTC ever become fast enough to function as a single world currency? on: February 17, 2017, 12:03:01 PM
I don't think that this will happen.
There are going to be too much transactions for the system to handle.

We will have a solution for that. Segwit and Sidechains after that will make it better for all the Bitcoin users.
To OP: It will be in far future and after much compromise to its main features there is a chance of Bitcoin function as a single world currency, But I don't think people will be crazy like now they are to use it without its main features.

Some of my friends have done that and it's really cool to do as it will be a fast transaction and the conversion rates were pretty high at that time.  Grin

As the poll result says, OP is obviously been drinking.  Grin Grin
To reach the state of Boring Bitcoin has to reach a million or more. It will be that point when no one will think of buying or trading Bitcoins coz of the price range.  Undecided
2149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 1 in a million on: February 17, 2017, 07:09:45 AM
Most of the people here are 1 in a Billion.. Grin Grin
As a matter of fact, I was one in a Million at one time. Won't regret selling it coz I made a good profit of my Bitcoins and used them in an emergency. Right now it is very tough to hold that many Bitcoins as the value is too damn high to purchase. Shocked
2150  Economy / Gambling / Re: Monthly Best Gambling Site (February 2017) on: February 17, 2017, 06:17:17 AM
Right now there is no competition for Directbet. There are many websites running for the 2nd place. As am into sports betting more so Nitrogensports is good one for me.  Smiley

I voted for directbet.eu too I love their site. There are a lot of casino's that I wanted to vote but it is not going to work for what is the best gambling site for this month. Looks like directbet will always be the monthly winner.

Yes definitely true. There may be many gambling sites which are provably fair and working well, but there is no match for Directbet right now. It holds most of the big players as well as provides most of the best services running in the market.
2151  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: BTC Price Question on: February 17, 2017, 06:14:25 AM
As Bitcoin is Decentralized, there is no one particular company or organization which decides the price of the Bitcoin. Therefore every exchange site is making its own price based on the demand and supply.  Roll Eyes
2152  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Scam indicators? on: February 16, 2017, 09:30:23 AM
only half an answer, but one perfect indicator is when the presentation says "no scam". lol

Most of the people put that in the presentation. I guess most of the HyiP which promise you to yield high-interest rates are going to be scammed sooner or later.
Best advice is to check on your own about the site before investing a penny.
2153  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins Everywhere? Not yet... on: February 16, 2017, 05:50:34 AM
Well,  not yet. And it needs many more years to reach that point. Merchants are not understanding the profit of using Bitcoin as a payment gateway. Bitcoin need more advertisement and popularity in the business world to make that happen

I don't think it will help in any significant degree

I guess many online businesses are perfectly aware of Bitcoin and possibilities that accepting payments with it could provide. It seems that they don't accept Bitcoin because of two major reasons. First, Bitcoin is not accepted by most governments as a legal payment method for most merchants (barring exporters) since it is treated either as a commodity or foreign currency (which is usually not allowed as a legal payment). Second, Bitcoin price is volatile so it makes no particular sense for merchants to accept Bitcoin if they could just accept dollars
You mention that Bitcoin is not accepted as legal payment by governments, thus most merchants are not able to accept it as legal payment. But what if they make use of a service like Bitpay?
They would receive the payments in fiat currency, so it would be legal then, or not?

Another factor would be that the cost of implementing Bitcoin payments and the support for it is greater than the possible profits to be made from that.

I do know and have concerns about the volatility problem of Bitcoin. But if merchants start using Bitcoin as a payment gateway through the services provided by Bitpay or likely sites then it will obviously increase the popularity and usage of Bitcoin in a wide range.
I have seen some Logistics and travel agencies started using Bitcoin as their payment gateway through service providers, that will encourage the users to go for Bitcoin than fiat. 
2154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the most interesting thing you know about Bitcoin? on: February 16, 2017, 05:20:40 AM
It may not be an interesting thing which I know but it really amazes me how the creator of Bitcoin is still unknown. We just know his name and some of his chats with other people, other than that we don't have a clue about him.  Shocked

2157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nigeria is Following Venezuela’s Bitcoin Trend on: February 15, 2017, 11:10:55 AM
It could be a big boom to nigerian economy. I can't imagine how much it would take them to improve their importation and exportation through bitcoin. 500NGN to $1 is just crazy in my opinion. Too low value, however if they could use the digital currency. (eg They imported products use bitcoin as a medium to purchase and vise versa.

People of countries like those are taking advantage of Bitcoin for their value and anonymity features. I have heard more cases of cheating and fraud from countries like Nigeria than a boom to economy.  Undecided
2158  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin better or paypal? on: February 15, 2017, 09:08:18 AM
Well, you can't compare them because they are two different things. Bitcoin is a currency and paypal is a payment service. For buying things online, i prefer using paypal as more online merchant i use accept paypal as the payment method, only a few accept bitcoin. But i prefer bitcoin to send fund and as a form of investment.

why your say bitcoin and paypal is difference,
paypal and bitcoin not diference is same digital curency can payment online, but youre true many store online is accepted paypal use payment , because paypal is complete regulation and supported feture dispute so many store online is prefered to use paypal
and many make money online prefered use bitcoin because is easy use and can grow capital money, is same digital curency but difference customer and client

Well both bitcoin and paypal can fuction as means of payment, but bitcoin have another use which is a form of investment where paypal can't therefore i said bitcoin and paypal is difference. One have advantages to the other, Paypal has the popularity with online merchant, bitcoin has less transaction fee. For me paypal is better rightnow, but if more merchant which i use accept bitcoin, then things can change.

Yes, the fact is right that PayPal is not a currency and Bitcoin is. But we are considering the terms of usage. PayPal is used by allot of countries and Bitcoin has now gained the popularity more than PayPal. It is about usability and transaction fees, which is comparatively low in Bitcoin.
But we also know that the wallet of the bitcoin are the type of payment processors they send money from one person to another like paypal and other payment processors. So if someone is comparing between paypal and bitcoin then they are talking about the transaction system of bitcoin through which we pay for goods and services like paypal.

If we are talking about bitcoin and paypal as a payment system, i still prefer paypal for buying things because PayPal provides buyer protection so i feel safer when i want to buy something. I prefer bitcoin for sending funds to friends or family because of lower fee ( i don't mind it arrived much later).

Well bitcoin got a good protection too but Paypal is widely used. That is the real reason I keep on using it. Bitcoin accepting online stores have limited items on their websites so sometimes you could not see the item you are looking for.
You would need to go to another online store and see that they only accept Paypal as an online payment. This is the real problem now for bitcoin and somehow Paypal wins in that.

We need more merchants to add Bitcoin as a payment gateway and if the merchant is like eBay who provides buyer's protection then it would be a great success for Bitcoin. People now may prefer PayPal more than Bitcoin while buying but if merchants start using Bitcoin as payment gateway then I guess more than 75% of the people will turn towards Bitcoin.
2159  Economy / Gambling / Re: Which site is the best for sports betting? on: February 15, 2017, 06:31:20 AM
I don't think there is any better site than Directbet.eu. Instant withdrawals, fast betting, no need of sign ups are the best things you can get.
I would also suggest Nitrogen Sports, I have gambled in both of them and both of them at best right now in the market.  Smiley
2160  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you still use Bitcoin if price would be stable for years? on: February 15, 2017, 04:27:33 AM
Would I be willing to sell items for it? Sure. Would I buy and stack it? No, I would use it to buy stocks that have a dividend, I think a lot of us here are interested in increasing our wealth, for first world nations our fiat works well. I don't need another currency, I want something better, and staying at 900 USD for 50 years means it loses buying power just like the dollar.

Absolutely true. We may not wanna stack Bitcoins like now everyone is trying to do, But we will be definitely using it if there is no better option comes in all those years. We Don't love Bitcoin for just it's volatility, we love it for the usability and easiness in the transactions.
