This tax thing confounds me. I went to this web page https://bitcoin.tax/, paid the $20.00 and do not care for the results, so far.  I'll decide what to do about it come March, maybe. My partner says, "Fuck it," but I don't want to risk a potential big hassle down the line. I truly hate the IRS. |

How come in the masternodes tab I cannot see any other existing masternodes?
That is standard with all similar wallets. Was that functionality intentionally removed?
Also what is the default port the masternode should be configured with?
I looked at the masternode setup blog entry from the official site but it seems not to go into detail about some things.
Is there another guide around? I'd like one preferably with examples of what each conf file should look like for both the local and the remote node
Thanks
Yes, they intentionally removed that functionality. https://github.com/bulwark-crypto/Bulwark/releases Removed global masternode list
No reason to waste CPU cycles constantly updating a GUI list (and all the associated sanity checks that go along with it)
No reason to give a nice IP-sortable list to spoonfeed the skiddies on a good subnet to take down.
Use RPC command listmasternodes instead

kinda off topic
but anyone have an idea on what kind of transaction fee I'd get hit on for a $1,634.00 BTC transaction?
thanks....trying to guess
At the current state of the blockchain, with a standard 2 inputs 2 output tx, a non-segwit would be a little over $8.00. I would set fee at 170 sates/byte right now. |

There are crazy price differences between GDAX and bitstamp. How come that there are consistent price differences for hours at a time? Could this be a sign of price manipulation that's rumored to be happening in GDAX? I mean, both exchanges are operating without major issues, trading with big volumes and accepting FIAT deposits... How come there can be long-lived price differences for their BTC pairs? I wouldn't be surprised if GDAX has some price manipulation going on at all. After all, it is owned by Digital Currency Group. We are all just small fry subjected to Barry's whims. gdax/$: 13 330 bitstamp/$: 13 321 that is not even one percent difference. The gap has lessened considerably, recently. Yesterday and Friday the gaps were much larger. |

This is just a standard empty block being mined. The block was mined in less than a minute after the last solved block. This is not an attack but pretty standard. Many pools mine empty blocks while they validate the last block. Before they can start including tx, they need to know which transactions in their mempool are already included in the last block. Rather than experience downtime, many pools elect to mine empty blocks during the validation period.
Allright, this looks fairly normal - but what's your opinion on the block with the lost reward? Error trying to implement RootStock commitment. https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7n1ie5/someone_destroyed_125_newly_mined_bitcoins/ |

Block #501853 A new one, but the "unknown" miner only sacrifices only the Tx fee this time. Number Of Transactions = 1 Transaction Fees 0 BTC https://blockchain.info/block-height/501853Viable attack to use when the blockchain is already backlogged with txs? Somebody needs to start working on a fix. Hoping it isn't a viable attack in the long term. Cant keep sacrificing 12.5 BTC unless there is a bigger end game. But can keep sacrificing fees for keeping the mining fee higher for longer. Have a bad feeling about this. Mostly the timing. Already a bit too down on price and might end up testing long term support levels .Hope its nothing.  This is just a standard empty block being mined.

Has anybody had any joy withdrawing BTC over the past few days - still showing wallet in maintenance for me  my withdraw is pending since 2017-12-17. Support told me that this delay is due data synchronization and I need to wait. anyone still has stuck withdraw? I still have one withdraw pending, amount is .007btc from my sold hash power. Didn't contacted support yet, I'm giving this xmas and new year's season to them. probably will contact them in the first week of January so they won't have any excuses of "holiday" Just don't wait until February. That's the big holiday event for the Chinese. Here's the list of Holidays coming up. https://www.timeanddate.com/holidays/china/2018 |

For hardcore bitcoiners who see their wealth in coins and not fiat, a bear market is nothing, and is actually a good thing. It is a chance to get cheap coins, or multiply the coins with daytrading or margin trading. Since you are acquiring more coins, and your wealth is valued in coins, your wealth is going up, not down. It's all about what percentage of the pie you hold when Bitcoin is the world currency.
 Give that man a cigar.. That's right. Most of us who got into BTC in 2016 or before could have fiat to burn, if we wanted. Even a lowly minnow such as myself.  We can't help it that many more got interested when BTC started going parabolic.  |

Bitstamps pumped back up to $13000!
Maybe I missed my chance to panic sell at the bottom.
Is it time to ask who sold at the bottom yet?
I panic sold a little bit on Gdax 6 hours ago near the bottom. So naturally we are going to moon now. |

The supply stands at 100 billion: more cannot be made. But the circulating supply increases, due to Ripple Inc holding on to about 60 billion XRP at this point (which are placed in escrow by the way, and only gets released in small batches). Ripple uses this 'war chest' of XRP to attract new partners, all of which that buy it are restricted it dumping it on the market as well. I do remark on that, as there is some kind of 'idea' - a poor one that is - within this community that Ripple can just nuke the market at once. Anyone that even followed the company longer than a day knows that would run counter to everything it stands for, but since most people here haven't even read more than a tweet about Ripple I will suffice by saying that much. Ripple is actually quite decentralized nowadays. You can inform yourself here: https://ripple.com/dev-blog/decentralization-strategy-update/ And now to totally piss you off: what do you think about this: https://i.imgur.com/UMosX0E.png ? Is this 'not' centralized? The big irony of some of you oldtime Bitcoiners is that you just cannot see what is unfolding in front of your very eyes, that being that BTC is actually at this point more centralized than Ripple. Good luck defending the opposite point of view. How does one become a "trusted" validator? Appears to me their decentralization strategy is like an aristocracy becoming more decentralized by the King/Queen knighting a few more people.  |

Should I panic sell all my coins at the bottom?
Yes, and make sure you sell them on Finex which may be a challenge if you are a US citizen. If not US citizen or have work around, include double required fee and send all BTC to Finex immediately. Then dump it all. Then proceed to withdraw your tethers and deposit them in Bittrex. go all in with NXT. Dumping on Finex is important. You will want to sell for as little as possible. Actually, the best way to dispose of your BTC is send them all to Bitmex and go 100x margin. Long or short, doesn't matter. Make sure to hold out until you are liquidated. |

If I send BTC using Bitcoin Core, will I be sending BCC as well?
No, there is strong replay protection with Bitcoin Cash. it will not get replayed on both chains. |
