~270$ another time.
Let's see if we can get above 270 after the correction and see some stabilization on this levels  Smiley

280 dollars after the official result of greek's referendum Wink... stay tuned!

I think we should wait the results of greek's referendum ...
Thats gonna have a huge effect on the price isn't it?
I don't know much about price and how things affect it, but I happen to have a lot of bitcoin on me right now so hopefully whatever happens will make the price rice higher!
Will a NO or a YES vote result in price higher or lower?

Yes of course the pump is obviously related with the greek's referendum, because this is the unique possible answer... and we should remember that today is sunday. So it doesn't exist any other possible explanation to this little pump of few dollars.

The result will affect much more the bitcoin price...

Yes but i see Greek tv right now and i say what they say there. The votes is not at all to 100% but until now is like that. Maybe will be higher

It's propaganda, the BBC is trying to declare a winner already too, it's to try and sway people into voting the way they want.

Something like 'mind control'  Grin, however I also think we should expect the end of the referendum.
2207  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Greece - We vote NO- ΟΧΙ on: July 05, 2015, 05:13:19 PM
Please let it be a no vote Cheesy I want to see Bitcoin at $500 Tongue

Lethn, the first exit polls will be out in 15 minutes time. Stay tuned to RT / CNN / BBC.

As per the BBC, we will be having the announcement of the official results by 9:30 pm Greek time (7:30 pm British time).

Here is the official website of the Greek electoral commission, where the live results will be published:

And once again, good luck to all the Bitcoin margin traders! Pocket some hefty profit guys!

Woow, thanks for the link it is really interesting. I am really excited to see what the Greek people will choose... not also for the question of bitcoin price but also because I live in Europe.
2208  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Why are Signature Campaign prices base on the rank? on: July 05, 2015, 05:01:53 PM
Another thread about forum signature, however I agree with philipma1957:

Why are the payouts in sig. campaigns based on the user's rank?
Code:
Rates: 
Hero member : 0.0015BTC per constructive post
Sr. member : 0.0013BTC per constructive post
Full member : 0.0009BTC per constructive post

I think it should be equal for all the user's. Whats your opinion?

As a legendary member my self interest is  pay me the most.

But in the dollar and cents reasoning I get paid more for one reason I have 9000+ posts.

If you pay me your add goes on all my old posts and all my new posts.  So you are buying 9000+ adds.

If you pay a newbie he has under 100 posts.  Plain and simple  9000 vs 100.  this is why the fees are stacked.

2209  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: the reason why Satoshi didnt use his 500k-1Million Bitcoins on: July 05, 2015, 01:55:52 PM
Because if he had used his huge stash of bitcoin, it would look like a huge premine (around 2 and 3% mined by him, the dev)
...

Which premine? I don't think it was a premine... because all the source was released so technically it was not really a premine (the problem was the lack of confidence by a lot of person).

2211  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain split of 4 July 2015 on: July 05, 2015, 01:43:53 PM
So what exactly was responsible for this error?

The miners, not all the miners but some of them....

To elaborate this a bit further:

My understanding of the situation is that some miners use a mining technique called SPV mining that relies on the assumption that the rest of the network produces valid blocks to mine a tiny bit faster. Those miners using SPV mining essentially have a few seconds advantage over those that completly verify the block first. What happend is that a big pool using said technique received an "invalid" block, a block version 2. These have recently been declared invalid as over 950 out of 1000 blocks mined are version 3. The pool tried to build the chain on top of the now invalid version 2 block, causing the fork. Because of the way bitcoin works we had two chains competing over which is the correct one. Those running nodes 0.10.x or 0.9.5 would not accept the invalid blocks and those following it, while other nodes would still accept them as valid and thus accept a different chain as the longest and currently valid chain. This resulted in wasted hash power for the miners and confusion as different services and wallets that rely on bitcoin core in the background showed different information / statuses depending on the version of bitcoin core running in said background.

Disclaimer: this attempt of a tl;dr version might be flawed, please correct me if you find any.

maybe... I didn't follow the whole situation.



I'm not very technologically advanced myself when it comes to the blockchain, so I am wondering, how does this affect wallets like the trezor and its webwallet?


it affected the bitcoin blockchain, the various wallets 'validate' the blockchain....


2212  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: July 05, 2015, 01:08:10 PM
my eyes are on litecoin.  Grin Cool

not a single fuck I give on underperforming btc.


Can I ask you what you're using to buy ltc? I suppose you are using bitcoin or am I wrong?

Can someone advice me if this split would affect the price of bitcoin anyhow? If yes how?

As you can see, the price wasn't affected by it at all.

Can someone advice me if this split would affect the price of bitcoin anyhow? If yes how?

The "split" like you call it, was resolved by the network 6 blocks after it happened - which shows how resilient (or anti-fragile) the Bitcoin network has become.  Regarding the price of bitcoin, please go to the speculation section of the forum.


On the other hand, it also shows that the system still has errors that can happen.
Don't get me wrong,i am glad that the "issue" was resolved, but i find that it shouldn't have happened in the first place.

cheers
Good to see that the price wasn't affected, but I guess it would have plunged down if the issue would have taken a day or two to resolve.
Also, in this kinda tech, issues will surely arise, you cannot expect them not to happen.


Why the price should be affected? The 'era' of bug or forked chain(s) that can affect the price doesn't exist anymore... it is only a pure speculation Wink.
2215  Economy / Economics / Re: Can bitcoin really save Greece? on: July 05, 2015, 10:20:07 AM
No, it can't. Bitcoin is not the salvation of any state but it can help some people to save their 'money'....
2216  Other / Meta / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto is a member of this forum on: July 05, 2015, 09:10:46 AM
If I was satoshi Im sure that those bitcoins are not the only ones he owns, is reason why he didnt touch those,  Im sure he was mining with other wallets, im sure he sold some as well.  Theymos knows Satoshi, or is Satoshi himeself, we really dont know who is behind the computer.  If the gov wants to get to Satoshi, they will have to take theymos into question

sorry but we actually do.  theymos' irl identity is well known.

but satoshi not, how come? also sirius the other man with satoshi, has an unknown identity also, maybe sirius is active too with another account

it is still strange how he disappeared after his last post pointed out that there are still some fix to be done

he left us with this "There's more work to do on DoS, but I'm doing a quick build of what I have so far in case it's needed, before venturing into more complex ideas.  The build for this is version 0.3.19."

so it is possible that he changed account bitcoin he was holding a fortune by than when the price rised, but he still working on bitcoin, maybe helping one of the dev...without revealing anything

No you are wrong, the real identity of sirius is well known :

Won't that be tons of years into the future ?

I think it'll just take another 2-3 halvings before miners won't be able to ignore the value of including transactions. Unfortunately, the days of the hobbyist miner are over. Large mining farms value short-term profit over blockchain health. Satoshi's halving schedule was a little too conservative.

2-3 halvings? I think that as early as next halving 50 BTC >> 25 BTC the 'miners' will change their actual tactic and start to accept everything without any insane rules .
2218  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How bitcoin dev's are helping to kill bitcoin on: July 04, 2015, 05:52:35 PM
Bitcoin is still an experiment and like all the other things in this life ... it's not 'perfect'. However we can be glorious because we are a part of this experiment, and maybe one day I/we can tell this story to our son and grandchildren.


If you don't like bitcoin ... simple don't use it Wink.

Have a great day,

2219  Other / Meta / Re: What gets you added on DefaultTrust ? on: July 04, 2015, 10:39:45 AM
From your conversation i got my answer why escrow.ms and one more user is not leaving trust for the trade done b/w us because it will add me into default trust which is not fine for now.

No it wont. You can leave a user trust and you can add a user to your own trust list, they are two different things. If you add someone to your trust list and you are in DefaultTrust level 1 then that person will get added to defaulttrust level 2. Only theymos can add people to defaulttrust level 1. All feedback left by people in defaulttrust level 1 and 2 will show up as trusted feedback.



If we suppose that all the users have 2 as minimal trust depth, but there are some users with 1 as trust depth. For the question regarding the 'Only theymos can add people to defaulttrust level 1' do you know that DefaultTrust is an user https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=122551 managed (obviously) by theymos.
