Marcotheminer/AutoSigBot, just a FYI, i signed up on the Bitsig website, following all the steps, entering my wallet address in Other Contact info, etc and the bot is already tracking all my posts, but never received any PM saying I'm in the Sig Campaign.

Should I just continue to post away?
2487  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Coinbase CEO: bitcoin is far ahead! Altcoins are distractions! on: March 03, 2015, 10:58:29 PM
Brian Armstrong must have come to this conclusion after watching this interview with an altcoin developer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIasr2AiyZ0

That was a great interview

Best I've seen so far.  Just spot on take by this alt coin developer.  They really get to the nitty gritty and technical focus of why Altcoins matter.

Bitcoin is I'm afraid doomed by this video's developer take on Altcoins.   Cry Cry

2488  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin v. Bitcoin on: March 03, 2015, 10:50:44 PM
I am 100% involved with Litecoin and hold no Bitcoin, for two simple reasons. One, Litecoin is just faster...no matter how many ways you want to spin it, Litecoin transactions enter blocks and get confirmations at least 4x faster than Bitcoin and often faster. There has also, to my knowledge, never been a confirmed double-spend (the same cannot be said of Bitcoin). I've had to wait upwards of an hour for Bitcoin to get the needed confirmations to clear a deposit into an exchange. Litecoin? Maybe 15 minutes, on average. Number two, and more importantly, is Satoshi Nakamoto and his ~1 million BTC hoard. I don't know who or where he is, I don't know what his intentions are for that coin, I don't know if one day he'll just decide to cash out and wipe out the order books on a bunch of exchanges...I don't know anything about his character or his intentions. But I do know that one person having 5% of the LIFETIME SUPPLY of Bitcoin is dangerous and I refuse to "explain it away" with assumptions and suppositions. "Oh, he probably doesn't have it anymore," or "No way does this benevolent genius destroy his own creation." How do you know? You don't. "He created it, he deserves to cash that in if he wants to!" Fair enough...but I don't have to be there when he does.

Litecoin, for all intents and purposes, IS Bitcoin...but it's faster, and doesn't have the baggage.

As for people saying it has no acceptance...it has about 100x the acceptance that Bitcoin had, this time last year. It just doesn't have the big, high-profile "Overstock.com" buying into it. But it's got a LOT of smaller merchants, via Snapcard and GoCoin. The "community" claims don't hold any water with me, because it's a global currency and people judge it based on its western message board traffic...and besides that, in twenty years NOBODY will be sitting around on message boards discussing the merits of this crypto or that. If it succeeds, people will just either be using it, or not. They won't be talking about it.

When I can book a flight through CheapAir, book a Hotel through Expedia, buy groceries using Gyft, buy furniture on Overstock, all done on a Dell laptop I bought on Dell.com all using Litecoin TODAY then I can consider your post relevant.

Until then, go suck an egg! Grin

Hello bitcoiners Smiley

I've been lurking around the rim of Bitcoin for a while now, and am finally brave enough to post on the forums.

I won't pretend to any great understanding of Bitcoin or how it works, but I think I'd like to be part of it - it's certainly dynamic!

Hello to all of you - I look forward to being a member here, and learning lots of new stuff Smiley

Ist.

Welcome to Bitcointalk forum, Istaria!

Feel free to ask all the newbie or stupid questions you have in this thread you've created or anywhere in Beginners and Help.

Once you feel you've gotten a grasp of Bitcoin and it's underlying technologies, you can move on to Bitcoin Discussion, Economics, Mining, etc...

Good luck!
2490  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin ATM's on: March 03, 2015, 10:42:28 PM
In the beginning, I think most Bitcoin ATM's were one way, like you can exchange Fiat for Bitcoins.

As technology progressed most of the recent models can handle 2 way transacting, fiat to BTC and BTC to fiat sorta like a mini exchange.

I think Lamassu and Robocoin have the most prevalent ones around.

2491  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is there a true 'bank' for bitcoin? on: March 03, 2015, 10:39:08 PM
The whole concept of Bitcoin goes against centralization, so it makes each person with a Bitcoin wallet "a bank".

It puts the onus strictly on the person or user to make sure that your funds are secured and protected from thieves.  There are some Bitcoin sites that lend and provide high yield investement type practices, but for the most part Bitcoin is all about making each and every human being it's own financial institution.

Offer your skills or expertise here in the forums:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0

Either that or you can post something to the BitcoinClassifieds:

http://bitcoinclassifieds.net/

Also, Reddit Bitcoin Marketplace:

http://www.reddit.com/r/bitmarket

So there's no shortage of places to sell your skill and service in for this new currency.
2493  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I think..... on: February 28, 2015, 04:36:04 PM
Bitcoins to Fiat, you have to use an exchange.  In the US, these are the current 3 best options:

Coinbase:

https://www.coinbase.com/

Circle:

https://www.circle.com

or in person to person exchange with a trusted buyer/seller:

https://localbitcoins.com/

All should be safe, valid ways to cash out.

My first computer was a Commodore 64, need I say more?

LOL I had one of those things.  You should've seen me jizz in my pants when I got my first tape recorder!



I thought I was the big swinging dick on the block.  Bow down to my Datasette peasants!!!   Cool

Hi Peter!

Word to wise, don't take it as an insult, but maybe registering a new forum name and staying with default Black font would be advisable.  Especially if you stick around here long enough and make a big name for yourself in the community,  you wouldn't want Apple slapping you with any copyright infringement type lawsuits.

And the green font just kills my eyes!   Tongue

Wow, how do you do it?!   Huh

How are you able to run that in your home without any complaints from your S.O., extracting that amount of heat, and that killer electrical bill?
2497  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Help, Bitcoin Core 0.10.0 crashes on start-up, no error pop-up on: February 27, 2015, 06:18:40 PM
If you have your wallet.dat backed up, I'd completely uninstall Bitcoin Core, delete any associated folders and registry keys, then do a clean install of Bitcoin Core once again and let it index the blocks from block 1 all the way to today.

Do this closer to before you go to bed, so you can let it reindex the blockchain overnight.

Do you have the private key where you could reinstall and import the key?

I do have my wallet backed up.  I was hoping there would be a resolution that did not require me to d/l the entire block chain again.  Could I keep the blockchain files and just copy them into the new directory after a clean install?

If you don't want to download the whole chain, believe you can just forego Bitcoin Core for Electrum wallet, which doesn't require the full Blockchain download instead, then import the wallet.dat there.

RIP Spock.  Not a trekkie by any means, but dude was the man.

He indeed did "Live Long and Prosper" the best anyone could.

26-40 is such a large group that it must be the winner. Also if we consider the boom the internet experienced in the 90s, and that people born in the 70s and 80s who went through that boom are now in the mentioned age, everything adds up nicely.

Yes, people that grew up with the dotcom bubble and the dawn of the Internet in the 90s, have all seen this before.

We, more than the older or the younger millenials, have seen how transformative and how far along, as well as, how long it took for the Internet to mature to what it is now.



The Internet was the first wave, Social Media the second wave, now Cryptocurrency is the third wave.
