Maybe if you could let us know what you are trying to achieve?
There are offline/online solutions like Armory, but Bitcoin Core is generally not considered one of them. If you are trying to generate keys only and then sweep them later, there are easier ways to do that.
yes i am trying to make an offline / cold storage with bitcoin core. is it not possible to do this with bitcoin core? if not what are the easier / better options? |

I seen one on Github and saved the URL but I am not at home to give you the exact link right now sorry..
I found at least 3 when I searched Google like a year or two ago..
can you give me the URL please? and i wanted user's feedback on bots that they have used, i found a couple in google search so far but all looks abandoned and incomplete. sometimes with bugs. there are a few abandoned ones hiding in these forums somewhere that you might be able to revive and get working.... as for active AND oss, dont think so. I've heard good things about the quantalo (sp?) trade bot that just makes you maintain a balance of their coin to use, but I have not used it myself. [edit] this one I have used and might be a good basis if you wanted to make your own. thanks but it is written in python. and i don't know it at all.  |

the litecoin market is looking so good right now, but this doesn't mean that litecoin is going to continue this upward motion and rise that high.
maybe if bitcoin price went through the roof, then litecoin could become more expensive but that is not going to happen.

if you want something promising enough that you can invest and "fully go behind." the only option is bitcoin that you have left behind.
this is a good time in the bitcoin price for you to get back in.
and as far as altcoin, if you want something promising you are not going to find it anywhere. but if you want to profit, a lot of coins like litecoin are coming back from the dead and giving good profits.

that is why there are conditional trade offers available. for example you place condition that if the price changes XX% then buy or sell. this way you can be safe even when you are asleep. and don't worry about losses, i did that with NLG (i think) i bought at 600 just to see it fall to 400 and then gave up on it  What's conditional trade? Can you give me example? Do YoBit.Net offer conditional trade? What about Bittrex? Thank you for sharing your tip. all the trading websites that i have seen so far had conditional trades so far. but i have never checked yobit it means that you place a condition for your trades. for example you say if the price of bitcoin goes lower than $210 then sell 10 BTC for price of $209.9 or if the price goes higher than $250 sell 10 BTC for price of $249.9 the exchanger's bot for these kind of conditional trades mostly have enough for all purposes but , other bots may have better and more options. |

I think the best way will be to store your coins offline. Only get them out when needed, otherwise keep it safe in a cold-storage. Why to risk your coins by keeping all of them at one online platform.
It is a huge hassle to spend any of the coins if you are looking to store everything offline. If you want, you can store a majority of them offline. You can still store them on your mobile phone or desktop computer. Sure they may not be as safe as cold storage but if you do take security precautions, you can easily make it as secure as any offline cold storage. the important thing is to keep whichever wallet you choose, safe. you have to keep your bitcoins that are not going to use in short term in cold storage to keep it safe for the future, lets say a couple of years later. the rest you can keep in an online wallet or a lightweight wallet that lets you spend then with ease. |

If you are using the blockchain.info wallet, they will wait a few days for the transaction to confirm. If it has not confirmed yet after a few days have passed, they will stop broadcasting the transaction to the rest of the network, and will show you your balance as if you had never sent the transaction in the first place. If you then send a new transaction that re-uses the same inputs, the address will be labeled in their block explorer web pages as having been associated with a "double spend".
if the transaction is not confirmed by ~2 days then they stop broadcasting it for a short time i have not take the exact time it takes, but it is not more that 15 minutes. EDIT: i checked my email, and apparently it is 1 hour gap. then the same transaction will be re-broadcasted again. the balance is restored in that 15 minute gap and you can double spend it. also you will receive an email indicating that the transaction is failed. Transaction Confirmation Failed
A transaction made through Blockchain.info has been removed from our database because it was taking a long time to be included in a block.
Any funds have been returned to your wallet and you can now spend the coins again. Please consider including a larger fee in future transactions. after this it will be re-broadcasted to the network |

For me, bitcoin is an easier way to send money and a quick way to become rich  . I use bitcoin to invest and receive money from online activity. And it's anonymous so there is no terror that come to me after i receive payment or anything.  the days of becoming rich quick through bitcoin is over now. the price is staying the same for a long time and looks like it is not going to change anytime soon. |

This is only the beginning in my opinion. nothing wrong with taking a profit. I want to take short term profits but I also believe that it has a lot more room to grow
Thats right don't rush your self to become a rich person. You should go slowly but surely and safe. if you are after getting short term profits you have to become a day trader and have the power to anticipate the market and take profit from swings. otherwise nowadays you can not make any profit from bitcoin since the price is at a fixed state. but if you are a long term investor, things are different. if you believe in bright future for bitcoin you have to buy some stash an put it away for the future and don't look back. |

currently i mostly save up my bitcoins that i earn, and additionally i try to buy some more if i can afford it and the price is right.
but other than that i try to do some altcoin trading with my bitcoin so that they are not just sitting there, and i try to earn some profit this way.
also i do some gambling, but i try to keep it minimal so when i lose i don't get much sad.
Gambling is for fun and I also used it for gambling on sports but I use it only when If I am sure that I will win and I gamble only on those sports which I can trust and of which I possess great knowledge and it is for fun so I gamble very less so even i loose it would not be much painful. yeah, i agree that gambling is just for fun. that is why i keep it minimal. besides i just do some gambling in dice from time to time which is a nice way to have some fun and sometimes win some nice rewards. |

Right now, i only get bitcoin from faucet rotator and cloudmining. But i'm aware of cloudmining so i didn't invest all of my BTC to cloudmining because i'm afraid it become scam and ponzi. So 80% of my BTC are from faucet rotator. It's easy and i'm not afraid of scam or ponzi. From my know about cloudmining they just mine to a particular company, so you mean that you mined for a company? so how its rate for they miners? there are no "profitable" cloudmining services available and in the past there were cloudmining services but they weren't profitable either. there is an interesting topic on cloudminers here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=878387.msg9697654#msg9697654i personally did cloudmining at cex.io back when it was active, but the only thing that was worth the investment was the ability to sell the hash power when its price went up. |

Hey Bitcoin Community! Essentially, I would like to know if you would ever consider taking out a loan in bitcoin? If you have previously taken out a loan, please share your experiences! What were the pros and cons, and what would you improve? Thanks  taken out tons of loans, funded lots of loans. If you're gonna do it , do it through btc-jam or such a service as that with verification. Too many scammers around these days, always need some sort of escrow. BTCJam aren't securing your loans by a bit. Many members on the site has been creating account using fake ID and their support is non existent. If you are looking for one, look for one that is trusted and can allow the borrower to put something in escrow. ID verifications isn't worth anything. it is hard to trust anybody anymore these days. i would never give anybody any loan without any collateral no matter how much good history they have got. especially on BTCjam, the trust service and any kind of verification that they have got, is not a 100% grantee that you dont lose money to a scammer. with collateral at least you know that your money is safe. |

don't get all excited about it. this is simply another pump that is happening right now. since bitcoin is at somewhat a fixed price it is only natural that investors start pumping another coin, and the next in line is litecoin. all this hype is gonna end and we are going to see the same dead lite-market again.

i have problem logging in my account.
i keeps asking me to authenticate myself, i don't have 2fa or anything. i just created that account some time ago and only set a password.

The site still bombs when trying to get a password reset.
And I'd make a new account, but it bombs on that too.
Fix your broken shit before you advertise your site.
i think you should have announced the website as trial beta version and fixed the bugs that you encounter, then released it as finished. it currently has a lot of bugs, so it is not safe to do any betting there. |

Never try martingale, really slow earnings if you go safe(which is not safe after all considering things like Provably fair) and really fast earnings but really dangerous high base bets. My biggest lose was 0.05btc with martingale. Base bet from 1k(cause i don't like to go safe)
I have 0.1 and lost all with martingle iam start from 1satosi, i get more than 20redline, that very high risk you don't lose 0.1 BTC in martingale if you start from 1 satoshi you will need 23-24 bets to lose all your balance. after 20 i think you will lose around 0.01 BTCif you want to try martingale first have an infinite wallet |

reaching 16K$ is not an easy mark to reach for bitcoin.
after the first upcoming halving is 2016 the price might start going up and make another bobble but to reach any bigger bubble it needs some major adoptation and investments which i don't see happening anytime soon.

the price looks stuck at the same stage for a long time now. it is good that the price is somewhat fixed but i wonder when this stage is going to be over.
and about the poll 36% saying $1000+ by the end of year 2015, i don't think so. it needs a lot more than what is going on right now to reach anywhere near $1000
