there are issues with eth and all eth tokens in all exchanges. it's the eth network having problems - not the exchanges....

I think coinbase is a safe wallet. My only issue with coinbase is the speed of transactions or the time it takes for transactions to get confirmed (bitcoin/litecoin). Other than that, it's all good.

For beginners, i'd say cryptopia is a good choice but lately, the fees there have been higher compared to other exchanges. Some are suggesting poloniex, but there are issues about withdrawals there or something. So, maybe try bittrex. I think that it's a decent exchange for you to begin with.

exchange listing? wala pa...? maghahanap pa lang? ipalist na sa cryptopia para sure na mai-trade yung token

naalala ko na yung coin - philcoin. so di na magagamit yung philcoin as name ng coin project ni sir dabs


anyway, about this project, how many coins will there be? and anong algo? ilan ang premine? yung bounties, may free airdrops?

I may get ridiculed for asking this, but, if bitcoin was gold-backed or backed by anything tangible that produces value, then maybe governments wouldn't be so aversive of its use?

If, for example, bitcoin gets backed by gold, or platinum, or oil, how would it affect bitcoin price? (Believe me, while typing this up, I feel like my question sounds dumber with every character typed.... can one commodity be backed by another    . )

I believe that bitcoin can stand alone as a very valuable commodity/currency because I believe that data is valuable. But not everyone can see that or understand that idea.

The gold standard has been been ditched by many countries but many people still don't seem to realize that bank notes now are just backed by promises and goodwill.... most still believe that banknotes are not just paper because its value is tied to a precious metal reserve. sadly, government leaders, bankers, and businessmen influencing people's perceptions want to keep it that way -- so as to keep the majority from breaking out of poverty?

People are unhappy because of discontentment. There's discontentment with what is owned, with body image, with lifestyle, etc. But not everyone is like that. If you know yourself, accept yourself, accept that you only live once so you'll do everything that is right, that is easy, that is helpful, that is true, then that will make you happy, then you won't be unhappy.

Depends on how they were brought up and it also depends on their convictions/values. First ask yourself. Are you trustworthy? Think of scenarios that will test you especially in terms of money and other valuables. And if you were in a dire situation, would you be honest and keep to your word - provided that you borrowed some money without witnesses or contracts to sign? Would you pay up? If your answer is yes, perhaps you'll attract the same person as you and they'll have the same values as you do.

pag may bitcoin kang imbak, pati na rin ibang crypto, maganda yan para sa purchasing power mo. mas mataas ang purchasing power mo ngayon kasi sa halagang pinang invest mo noong pumasok ka sa crypto, mas marami kang mabibili sa halaga nito ngayon. kung hindi man mas marami, yung mas mahal na halaga, kaya mo nang bilhin ngayon.

E di can afford ka na. Anong epekto sa ekonomiya? can afford na ang mga tao - provided, nag-gain sila sa crypto. pag downtrend, wag na muna mag sell para di ka loss unless mataas pa rin gain mo kasi mura mo nabili crypto mo 

that's against usd, which is an illusion because bitcoin price is going up and so its dollar value follows. but what about against btc? the toa-btc chart will show  you otherwise. hope that visit to the US can help boost toa's bitcoin price up. it's now trading at 110 sats and going down

In my opinion, there will always be criminality regardless of what medium of value is used.

Bitcoin is in the spotlight now because it's unique, remarkable, heavily hyped in the news because of it's price/value, and easier to move compared to banknotes.... so authorities are alarmed because it will be more difficult to catch perpetrators.

I think maybe what makes authorities more disconcerted is the fact that the amount of equivalent cash moved at the time the crime was made can double or rise many folds so the criminals loot is worth more than when they originally were! They end up taking more to finance whatever other nefarious activity they have planned and that is indeed scary...

Hence, other large crimes involving fiat and other assets become overlooked because of the marvel of bitcoin.

bottom line is because they can't believe that ordinary people are earning so much through bitcoin and other crypto assets, and that they can't impose any taxes or apply sneaky corrupt practices to get a portion of what bitcoin users own....

I'm with everyone here who has explained to you that it will be impossible to regulate bitcoin. But what the government can do is scare users of bitcoin. For example, in the US, a newly proposed legislation may criminalize those who conceal ownership of cryptocurrencies (https://news.bitcoin.com/proposed-u-s-legislation-may-criminalize-those-who-conceal-bitcoin/)

That way, they have control over those who use bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, hoping to "combat money laundering and the financing of terrorists".

But those who believe in privacy will continue to use bitcoin. With this news, every diligent user in the cryptoverse will be watching this closely and see how other countries will respond. If it becomes a law, what can we do? Anyway, it's still too early to tell, and maybe we'll cross the bridge when we get there?

wala pa bang sariling exchange ang pilipinas? di pa ba considered exchange si coinsph? di ka nga lang makapagplace ng preferred buy or sell order kasi kung ano lang dictate nyang price ng buy or sell, no choice tayo sa pag convert. anyway, nasa cryptopia ako dahil nandun yung alt na trade ko to btc. pag lisk and fun nasa bittrex ako. locked out ako sa polo dahil nalilimutan ko password ko buti na lang wala na akong funds dun  

Cryptopia. Nagtransfer ako ng 0.128 btc...

It just did. And then slid back to 10,900 something usd and consolidating in that range. Now waiting for it to break past 11,500++  exciting times ahead!

Noted, masaya yan! Sasama ako jan.

cardless ba or cashless? kung cardless, phone app okay na rin siguro. isa pang ninenegosyo yang mga cards na yan, environment friendly pa, bawas plastic hehe. yun nga lang dagdag electronics trash  . siguro kung di na atm cards ang gamit, mas mabilis mag prevent ng pagnanakaw. kahit pa nakawin ang phone mo, di basta basta makukuha ang pera mo. mas magaan pang dalhin.

the government is always against anything that they cannot control. bankers, traditional and old oligarchs, businessmen are also against anything that will pose as a threat to their control of wealth. but the good thing about this warning is that, be wise with your investment. bitcoin is still considered a commodity and anyone who gets into bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency in general, should do their due diligence to educate themselves about crypto and the cryptoverse. to invest only that amount that they are ready to lose, and to be prepared for anything that could disrupt crypto markets....

How about BayanCoin, FilipinoCoin, Pilipinas coin, Maharlika.... dapat ba laging may nakadugtong na "coin"? Parang ethereum, decred, golem, walang nakadugtong na "coin"....
