2641  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have stopped introducing bitcoin to others! on: February 23, 2017, 11:38:39 AM
It is difficult decision, imo, after 3 years promoting bitcoin and it has to end. I also think even bitcoin has the other good feature than credit card or bank, but many people are not comfortable with high fees while they can do transaction without paying fees.
2642  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin follow the same path? on: February 23, 2017, 11:20:54 AM
not sure. if bitcoin fees do not decrease in a short time, I worry people will think twice to send bitcoins even use it. however bitcoin system of course is better than banks, but high fees is a big issue either.
2643  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: LocalBitcoins !!!! 80 HOURS to confirm !!!! on: February 23, 2017, 03:03:13 AM
Hi All

Just thought i would sell a few BTC and used my old wallet and sent 2.2 BTC......Stated low transaction fee ??

So i sent abother 2.22 BTC via mt Multibit wallet and it's the same !!!

WHY...It was always 30-40mins !!!

 Huh
Several threads revealing the same information but on several requirements of transactions were running parallel. At least you can be happy because you've got confirmed in 30-40 mins though you have paid small fee. This is not a big delay, users are waiting more than 48 hours to get their transaction confirmed.

yeah. in my point of view, waiting for 30-40 minutes for confirmation is not a long time. because I have ever had to wait for an hour to get confirmation, but it is also not a long time rather then those who need a day or two to get confirmation.

I think Bitcoin is not becoming a global currency, rather it is already and it has always been. The nature of Bitcoin is global.
Yes true, if bitcoin currency of course all countries will accepted. In my country, bitcoin same with commodity, and not accept for payment. Don't too high expectations with bitcoin.

yeah, because bitcoin is available in all countries as long as the citizens have internet connection. if a currency can do such thing, we can call it as global currency. besides, it is used in many countries.
2645  Economy / Economics / Re: Can we Manipulate Bitcoin price? on: February 21, 2017, 11:55:35 PM
you can, as long as you have many bitcoins, in this term while, then you can manipulate it, or you have many people to be the users of bitcoins then the demands will increase, so bitcoin price will increase too.
2646  Economy / Economics / Re: You should never trust banks on: February 21, 2017, 11:53:21 PM
Many people would like to have the choice, to deal with banks or not. Unfortunately that is not often the case and many people have to do business with banks and rely on them because Bitcoin is not so widely accepted and regulated. We all hope this will change in the future.

yeah, but it will be good to be carefull to invest your money in banks because this is an example of kind of crime bank can do. however, bitcoin comes to defeat the system of banks. so just use what you prefer.
2647  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me a secret: any way to earn 0.1 BTC per week? on: February 21, 2017, 11:48:37 PM
if I tell you the secret to earn 0.1 bitcoin, then it will not be "a secret" anymore. haha, just kidding.

if you have a skill or some, you can visit this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=985550

there are many kinds of jobs you can find there where you can earn more than 0.1 bitcoins.
2648  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] BITSANE.COM Cryptocurrency Exchange Platform Is Now Live on: February 21, 2017, 11:42:50 PM
I sometimes see people create threads asking about saving their bitcoins in an exchange. theb some people say such do not do that. what about bitsane? will our bitcoins be safe to keep it in bitsane?
2649  Economy / Economics / Re: The Blockchain will be commercial on: February 21, 2017, 11:23:04 PM
Banks right now are investigating the blockchain technology and what your friend meant about blockchain will be commercial is that it will be used by banks, institutions, and many more in the future to lessen their expenses and minimized their profit. It might also be used by money sending services in the future to ease their money transfer. If this happens though crypto-currency will not be the only one using blockchain tech, and those people who use bitcoin for easy transfer might switch into using banks and money sending services again.

I think so. blockchain tech is getting popular in banks, institution, etc community because they see the excess or the good things of blockchain, and of course it will increase the feature of their companies, so they will use it for some commercial benefit.
2650  Economy / Economics / Re: What influences the Bitcoin marketplace? on: February 21, 2017, 11:18:58 PM
Bitcoin marketplace is influenced by government regulations, supply and demand, FUD, hype, Adoption News, development and Market manipulation.  We all know that there is a possible whale controlling the bitcoin price.  Whales can easily make Bitcoin price up or plummet it, depends on what is beneficial to him.
Agree with your point of view. Bitcoin is a relatively mature market, but if bitcoin can gradually improve the market trading rules, then bitcoin may become the world's most influential and investment value of the capital market, it is worth looking forward to!

yeah. those all influence bitcoin marketplace. however, demand and supply are the most influenced one. the theory is just like the other marketplace that demand and supply influence the product even there are still another factors, but they are the most affected.
2651  Economy / Economics / Re: crypto is the future, make money of it on: February 21, 2017, 11:12:55 PM
There are many crypto now, maybe crypto what do you mean? Not all crypto has a good performance, the future crypto will depend on the their performance. But I think crypto that has a good performance like bitcoin will have a good future, we could become rich by using it. But to achieve a better future crypto should be developed, I believe if the crypto can grow will definitely have a good future, and prices continue to rise.
yeah, not all cryptocurrencies will be the future, probably some of them will die soon. but if the term "crypto" you mention refers to bitcoin, then it will be, imo. it just needs some time we cannot predict to be the future currency.
2652  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin has gone beyond gold prices on: February 21, 2017, 02:57:41 PM
the choice is bitcoin. in my country gold is quite difficult to be protected, probably because it is a physical good. unlike bitcoin which we can save without paying some thing to protect it because it is invisible, so it will be difficult to find it (for some people here)
2653  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: Paying with the cryptocurrency on: February 21, 2017, 02:45:35 PM
it is just like when you give a knife to someone, he will determine whether he will use the knife to cut fish to eat, or to kill people. and we are talking about bitcoin as a currency that can buy both legal and illegal things, can support you to do legal and illegal things. so it will depend how wise the owner to use it.
2654  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be used by ordinary citizens? on: February 21, 2017, 02:36:16 PM
Bitcoin is usually used by people interested in technology. I mean, persons with a certain technical knowledge are interested in bitcoin.

My observations are that way. I think Bitcoin needs to reach larger quantities. Can use bitcoin in people who are not interested in technology?

Can people use the bitcoin in the profession group like tradesmen, teachers, housewives, firemen, butchers? Are we going to see the days that these people use bitcoin?

yes. when I first heard about bitcoin and its tech, I did not really care about the tech. then I saw my friend earned money from it, so I was interested. if people just know that bitcoin is money, I think they will be interested in it.
2655  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Share a Bitcoin Friendly Bank You Know on: February 21, 2017, 01:51:47 PM
have no idea about that. If I'm not mistaken, bitcoin is here as a competitor of banks. and their systems are different each other. so I don't really get it how banks be friendly to bitcoin. probably because I live in a small country and I find no bank is friendly to bitcoin, so I do not know such thing.
2656  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Do you have an idea to invest your bitcoin in offline business? on: February 21, 2017, 01:13:06 AM
it is good idea. I actually invest my bitcoin in an offline business. but it is a personal business, and I still develop it. but I think I want to develop it myself first then if it is possible I would invite bitcoin investors to join like you said.
2657  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Apple, Microsoft, Mercedes Benz Accepting Bitcoin on: February 20, 2017, 11:34:49 PM
I didn't hear if the Mercedes-Benz accepting bitcoin and tesla is never making an announcement about they were officially accepting bitcoin for their payment. Especially for apple too.  Huh
it would be better to attach a link to the announcement, so people will not be doubt on you.

if it is true, then it will be good because probably the other companies would follow them as you said. and it will make bitcoin be mainstream.
2658  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have found a wallet with 40 BTC on: February 20, 2017, 11:27:50 PM
Hi,
i have found a wallet with 40 BTC.
The last transaction was 2011.
Can i take the money?
Or is it not legal?
Please Help!

Best Regards!

You found the keys to a car. Can you take the car? Is it legal?

Don't be an idiot.  The money is yours.  It is not illegal to transfer bitcoin if you have the key to do it.  Having the key means it is your bitcoin.  Take it and transfer it to another address before another key holder does that. 



Not really, what i would do is to donate 39 BTC to people who needs it. Like donating to projects everyone use, but no one donates to, like UNOMP, BCOIN, and many others. I would keep 1 BTC as a reward for fair distributing the funds.
But the question is, how did you found a private key in a forum, with 40BTC in the wallet ? normally as it is existing since 2011, it should have been aleready emptied.

it is still illegal. who knows that one day, the owner want to take his bitcoins, but he finds it nothing. I just suggest you to look for the owner and ask for permission, or people who knows him. because there is also the other possibility why he doesn't take the coins, that is death. however, taking the other's stuff without permission is illegal.
2659  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as form of payment for government services on: February 19, 2017, 11:40:38 PM
that is nice to hear such news. the thing is in government service. it is really good. but I think it is not that easy to legalize bitcoin in order to change the payment method or just add it. it does not really matter anyway. and probably it will motivate the other country to follow this country's stepfoot.
2660  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to the Bitcoin Network if a World war Starts? on: February 19, 2017, 09:41:18 PM
when it is war, I think people who face it do not think much about money, but they think how to survive and escape from that war. probably money can save them by living in the other country. however, people are panic, and probably will panic sell in order to buy sonething or to move to the other country, so the price would increase. but I think it will not affect much on bitcoin network.
