I think that is absolutely a great idea.

We've been playing with the idea of breaking bottles down into more affordable tasting sizes.

Honestly, I'm in the same boat and small vials would make it affordable for me to have a drink once every blue moon as well!

I'm going to look into this further in 2018 for sure.

That's great, if you do get around to it please let me know and I'd likely pick up a few mini bottles. Making sure the drink doesn't get switched out and nothing contaminates the original taste would be an important part Smiley

If I cut it... I'd let you at least know <3

I'll let you know if we figure something out.

(Cuttin Pappy would be sacrilegious... no worries, this isn't the 30's any more Cheesy)

i would never enter my private keys on a website though.

You should NEVER enter a private key that still contains Bitcoin anywhere... be it our service, a different third party service, individuals, decentralized wallet or anything else in between.  

Our service doesn't require private keys in order to check to see if your address qualifies for any of the forks we check.

We do have to have the private key if you want us to liquidate your coins for you... you are however welcome to download whatever wallet you need to sweep your own coins.

Our service saves people a ton of time, adds a layer a privacy (there has been some serious speculation that these forks of Bitcoin are an attempt to triangulate large Bitcoiners) and prevents the need of downloading yet another shitcoin wallet.

As I've stated... we've paid out well over $125,000 in Bitcoin Cash liquidations alone this month alone and I'm sure we've assisted in helping people find at least a million dollars this month.

There's only one bitcoin, fool. And it sure isn't Bcash.

Well, it sure as shit isn't BCore either in the current state.    Roll Eyes

$43 dollar fees are NOT the future... you're the fool if you believe so.
Why don't you fuck off . no one wants you here . don't give a fuck  if you sold your btc for bcash.

Kill yourself.

I haven't bought any BCash and I actually own a part of FreeBitcoins.com... part of our service right now is that we help liquidate peoples BCash for "free" Bcore Coins in fact.

I've sold well over $125,000 worth of BCash for BCore this month alone Roll Eyes.

No one would want to donate whiles the money being charged as fees itself can be even used to donate all over again,  but in spite of all that, the fees are gradually being reduced bit by bit.it will completely return to where it was a couple of months ago.

Why would you trust Bitcoin Core again if nothing changes even if the fees go down?

Ok, so if the fees go back down to 5 cents tomorrow... what is stopping it from being $43 per fee the next day?

This destroys the confidence in the market.

Something has to be changed because of this or we will see the trust/faith in Bitcoin Core drained in 2018.

Why use a shitcoin with a totally different blockchain when you can use Bitcoin Cash that has the same historical blockchain as what Satoshi and Ross used?

Ask it to TPB:



Wow, thanks for this, wasn't aware of it!

Funny thing is, Bcash "CEO" Rick Falkvinge was a supporter of The Pirate Bay! That's a double LOL there!

Guess they won't be in the runnings to get a million dollars from the Pineapple Fund.

Pineapple fund announced they are shifting away from Bitcoin Core because they paid a $1,000 fee to send a million dollar donation.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2645479.msg26947512#msg26947512

The people who run this Pirate Bay are fucktards... they also thought that adding The Hive miner to steal their user's computer power was a wise idea as well.

They will accept Bitcoin Cash in the very near future I'd imagine.
2827  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Charity giant Pineapple Fund announces they will no longer support Bitcoin Core on: December 25, 2017, 08:25:03 PM
is probably salty that someone donated $100 but once he converts it to fiat it'll be around $90 (just an example).

The average transaction fee was $43 yesterday. (https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-transactionfees.html)

It costs more to pay for an 8th than it costs for the actual pot.

What do you agree to?

That you'd have to be a fucking idiot to use or accept Bitcoin Core regardless of how much money you are trying to send.

I agree with them using Bitcoin Cash and asking for others to accept it.
2828  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I'm no longer accepting Bitcoin Core Coin without an additional $200 fee. on: December 25, 2017, 08:15:14 PM
Merry Christmas guys, I suggest you should shift to altcoins for sending and receiving your payments.

Merry Christmas to you as well!!!!!!

I absolutely accept altcoins. <3

I specifically support CLAM, but I will accept almost anything that has liquidity.

(Reminder... if you had Bitcoin, Litecoin or Dogecoin on May 12, 2014... you have free CLAMS.  It only takes around 10-15 qualifying addresses to purchase a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle.)
2829  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I'm no longer accepting Bitcoin Core Coin without an additional $200 fee. on: December 25, 2017, 07:53:47 PM
My Bitcoin core wallet just charged me $165 to send $181. https://blockchain.info/tx/30f824f4233ef331c12864bf3237c9a785b0e55a4c26bf3638aa9fbc8b067ebf

This is fucking the most stupid thing ever and I suppose we all have the freedom to choose to participate or not.

I will no longer be accepting Bitcoin Core Coin for the time being without a $200 additional fee... I'm truly sorry to have to do this, but this is absolute bullshit.
Don't you get to pick the fee amount?

The fees are crazy but currently it costs like $7 to send a transaction for it to be confirmed in an hour or two (usually mine confirms the next block)

Higher fees when the blockchain is clogged is normal. The same thing happens when you try to drive somewhere during rush hour.

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas to you as well bud!!

The fee is MUCH higher than $7 at the moment... https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-transactionfees.html

I do pick my own fees when sending from my Bitcoin Core wallet.

However, the estimated cost of the transaction was the same for 2 blocks as it was for 7 days... it is becoming increasingly clear that Bitcoin fees are being manipulated in such a way that the core wallet is being manipulated as well to grossly overestimate fees.

This "rush hour traffic" is just miners filling the blocks up on purpose and forcing high fees on the rest of us.  

Imagine if I have BAC Coin:

BAC Coin can handle 10 transactions per block and the min fee is 1 penny and I control the majority BAC Coin mining network, so I get whatever fees are spent.

Of COURSE I'm going to send 10 transactions with a $1 fee because I'm going to earn that money back after I mine the block and if you want to send a BAC coin you will have to pay at least $1.01.  If I didn't spam my chain... I'd earn only 1 penny from you instead of $1.01.

The "fix" to this is to increase the blocksize and more mining competition.  Increasing the blocksize forces me to risk more money per block in order to manipulate the users and more competition cause it to hurt more each time I miss a block full of my spam.

Just an idea, but have you thought about doing something slightly different with your bottles of Pappy? There is a company in the UK called Master of Malt and they stock a wide selection of drinks. However the quirky thing they do is offer 3cl "drams", in sort of clinical bottles with a wax seal on top. I bought a pappy one of these last year and gave it away as a present, however I would love to try it personally and a small taste would be perfect.

I calculated it at the time and they would recoup 2-3 times the cost of a whole bottle (at the prices you charge) with minimal extra outlay. Finding a food safe lab, choosing the right seal and buying the bottles seem like small extra costs for the return on the amount of bottles you'd be selling. It seems lots of people are interested, but the high entry cost prevents a lot of people from buying.

I think that is absolutely a great idea.

I'm going to look into this further in 2018 for sure.
2831  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoincash now is 3rd in CMC do you guys BCH can overtake bitcoin in future? on: December 25, 2017, 07:38:10 PM
BCH is an altcoin and I will always view it as one. I think it will still have long-term relevance since Ver is spending a lot of money on paid shills to keep it in the spotlight.

I see far more Bitcoin Core shills than ANYTHING.

I absolutely believe Bitcoin Core is being attacked from the inside out by someone who is massive and smart.

because original bitcoin is getting ever popular.

Bitcoin Core can't even be used in the current state it is in and even if it improves tomorrow... why would anyone have any confidence that the fees aren't going to be through the roof the next day.

Something needs to change.
2832  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Charity giant Pineapple Fund announces they will no longer support Bitcoin Core on: December 25, 2017, 07:35:45 PM
These people must come to notice that the fee problem is MOSTLY because exchanges have ZERO clue how to estimate fees and pay outrageous amounts

The Bitcoin Core wallet itself can't even estimate fees properly and GROSSLY overcharges people.

My Bitcoin Core wallet gives the same estimate for 2 blocks and 7 days... it seems someone has figured out how to game the fees in Bitcoin in order trick the Core wallets fee estimator.

I mean I doubt they were getting much money in Bitcoin anyway, this was just a stunt to get in the news. And look, it worked out for them to get here -- any means nessecary to get more visibility and then in turn, more money.

Literally... how stupid can you be?

Pineapple Fund is giving million dollar donations... you can see their transactions on the blockchain.

b...but muh lightning network is just round the corner you guise

Same with the new forums!  Roll Eyes
2833  Other / Bitcoin Wiki / Re: Bitcoin.IT is under attack from MidnightMagic. Deleting important links and info on: December 25, 2017, 07:31:37 PM
It's my personal opinion that the pages and listings should be written from a neutral-point-of-view, and many of these are total advertisements at best. I don't see a problem with what MM is doing as long as quality, neutral content is left over. The genuine businesses will do better here if they aren't on a list with 200 defunct or outright fraudulent services padding them.

I fully agree, but this is not what is happening.
2834  Other / Bitcoin Wiki / Re: Bitcoin.IT is under attack from MidnightMagic. Deleting important links and info on: December 25, 2017, 07:25:27 PM
Midnightmagic is continuing to destroy the wiki.

I've since had my wiki editing rights revoked... This is something I paid for and I've obviously not received a refund for this either. I've also been muted in all the Bitcoin IRC channels as well.   Roll Eyes

Fishy? Yes. (However... I did call MidnightMagic a fucktard right from the get-go.  Today I told MidnightMagic that I hope they die in a car wreck via PM after discovering my mute.  Calling someone a fucktard who is attacking something you love should not be a permaban.)

It feels like someone is trying to kill Bitcoin from the inside out by killing off the very guts that make Bitcoin and I firmly believe MidnightMagic is involved.
2835  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoincash now is 3rd in CMC do you guys BCH can overtake bitcoin in future? on: December 25, 2017, 07:22:27 PM
BCH is not even a clone, it is centralized and censored which make really unuseful and can't compete with Bitcoin.

Basically, anything surrounding Theymos is GROSSLY censored and controlled by very few people.  I firmly believe that at least a handful of those users that control things are government agents attempting to hurt/destroy cryptocurrency in general.

I just find it so hard to believe that you people can't see this clear as day.

Pineapple fund is now dropping BCore Coin as well... they make million dollar donations to charity and they can't even use BCore Coin due to fees.

https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/7lnu9w/pineapple_fund_update_homes_in_haiti_education/?st=jbmj0xiz&sh=1a425cb9

This is the second charity in two days that I've seen drop Bitcoin Core in the past few days.

Pale Moon also stopped accepting donations as well. https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?t=17826

I read the reddit article.

So, why are they not using Litecoin, which is a well-established coin, and instead they suggest using Bcash, which is a fork in its infancy and governed by lunatics (read their "Letter from the CEO" as proof of lunacy)? I sense something fishy going on there...

Cause Litecoin fucking sucks.

No one wants to use Litecoin... sorry I know that is heartbreaking for all of y'all shitcoiners.

People want to use Bitcoin because of the historical value behind it and the number of real transactions on it.

But... Bcash is not Bitcoin!

It absolutely is Bitcoin.

Litecoin is not Bitcoin.

I'm not sure why this is so hard for people to grasp.

Aye aye, captain! Now, read this:

"Letter from the CEO"

...to see what Bcash really is, written by the "CEO" himself.

 Roll Eyes

No one fucking cares.

You do understand that there aren't CEO's of these things... there are just people with more Epeen than others.

Litecoin is not Bitcoin because it does not care the history in the blockchain from Bitcoin... it has a totally different blockchain.  BCash and Bcore share the exact same history prior to August 1, 2017.
