basically shut down and under investigation. The coins will probably be confiscated by the authorities and users will never get to use them again (like Silk Road).

I love the low transaction fees and the instant transactions. It is also a great way to hold your money and be in control of your money. Those are two things that only Bitcoin can provide!

I think it depends on which countries does these operate. If it is a strong country then i think most of them should be registered. But in other countries as far as i know bitcoin is not legal to use so might be gambling sites are unregistered.
I am sure US is a strong country and still doesn't have control over majority of the bitcoin gambling sites . Almost all countries require registration and licensing but it becomes difficult for them to execute their legal system against sites accepting only bitcoin. Can someone explain why gambling is illegal in America? The government does not want foreigners taking away Americans hard earned cash. Only Las Vegas and Atlantic City may do that.

Is anyone still using TorChat? Does it work well, even though it doesn't seem to updated in a while? is it still a safe working program?

Hi, I want to know what's the best strategy when playing dice if I have 10 BTC bankroll and want to make 40 BTC. I know only Martingale, and that's bullshit strategy so I was just randomly betting and lost so much.
Not a higher chance on winning than the regular winning odds on dice (in other words expected return is smaller)

every gambler want to be rich gambling is the fastest ways (if you're lucky)
don't try to gamble if you don't have spare money to lose stay safe
Moral of the story is: GAMBLING IS STUPID. If you DO however end up doing it, please set yourself a minimum point of loss. You will thank me later for it.

If i use a different bitcoin address for every transaction, it is still possible to correlate my addresses? If i leave one address here in my signature (for tip, lets say) and this address only serves this purpose, i will never use it in any other transaction; it is possible to correlate it with other of my addresses? I am reading that bitcoin is not so anonymous like people think it is, BUT what are the possible falws here? I know that every transaction is public, but if "they" cant correlate transactions/addresses with each other, they have nothing, right? Explain like i am five please Thank you Darkwallet will probably do what you are looking for but it's still in beta. but I think most people are happy with the pseudo anonymity offered by coinjoin

We're going to run into waves of adoption. This is inevitable, and will make for a bumpy ride, but also slower growth, which may be a healthy thing.

hackers claim that the reason they did it was to prove that Ashley Madison was lying to their customers about the permanent delete feature.

And I mean really, really lost. A lot of people can't remember their passwords after 4 minutes since they set it up. But apart this, there's several ways bitcoins can get lost, like in example if you have a wallet on a USB key and this breaks and you have no cold backup.
This will inevitably bring, in the future, to less than those 21 million cap. And they WILL keep going down.
Is there a plan to reintegrate them?
At the moment, not. but It's just a consensus thing, and could "easily " be changed. The divisibility of Bitcoins is how the lost coins problem is handled. In short the money supply can be expanded by having the value of Bitcoin increase such that people will be urged to spend/sell to those the increasing demand. I would NEVER agree to the 21M cap being raised and neither would anyone else who currently owns any btc as it would signifigantlly devalue any benefits of being an early adopter and believer in this technology To raise the cap to something like 21Billion for the saker of argument would make every coin worth 10 times less how would the winklevoss twins and other large holders feel about that ? consensus lol ......i doubt it people have also invested x amount because there will be a signifigant reward halving in 2016 and and the next one after that when a steep rise in value is predicted ,to start monkeying arounnd with the coin supply now would just cause people to lose faith all together since thats equivalent to irresponsible governments printing cash from fresh air now etc etc It could also happen just with a general consensus democratically, but that is also unlikely since the 21M limit is held as a pretty core belief by most Bitcoin users currently.

Look what i found: "Bter says that it managed to trace the stolen 7,170 BTC to a Bitcoin mixer (a cryptocurrency laundering service) called Bitcoin Fog" I don't know if it is legal or not but this is the website http://www.bitcoinfog.com/How is that possible if the bitcoins were really in cold storage? Somebody would have to have access to that private key somehow. They recovered NXT in the past. They got stolent 2 millons dollars in NXT

Really nice video I've heard a lot of bitcoin songs and I'd say this is near the bottom. It sounds like an instructional manual.

No one really knows how much because of the amount of the users of bitcoin. Imagine the guy who throw away his hard drive with tons of BTC in it. Yes that's a real news.

I lost around 10 BTC Mostly in dice and sportsbook.(Martingale and all In Soccer bets) Gambling is not good so play at your own risk.

In many places of this forum bitcoin's target value was set at 10.000$ so you should be fine with 100btc, it depends on at what age you'd be retiring 1.000.000 would make for a very comfortable living

things are most probably are going to change but we are going to be stuck at this price level for more time now. especially next year in 2016 when the block halving is about to happen, things are gonna change and market will get exciting again.

Good time to buy we're currently in the bullish, bearish and flat trends. The spike over $300 last week shot out of all the trends, so retracement is hardly a surprise.
