What percentage of the population, do you guys think, has a basic, functional view of BtC and how it works? 2%? Maybe less?
About one million I estimate 1,000,000 / 7,000,000,000 = 0.014 % ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Seems about right. I would say something more like 5 million, but its closer that 140,000,000.

Coinbase flagged me as a risk twice, but luckily the price dropped before I bought the third time (~100).

Its great that you are earning double, but all pools should be more or less the same.

You could just create a paper wallet. Its the same thing but its not at all in any kind of tech. A piece of paper cant fail like a hard drive.

Not only that, but sometimes people hide hacks in new alt coins. Linux can save you from that (most of the time).

Thanks so each transaction could use up 2-3 keys and your backup only gets old after 100 keys are used cool got it, but U would think they'd have a counter at bottom of client window telling you how many keys have been generated.
Ya, this would be a great feature. Why dont you suggest it to bitcoin.org.

Is there any site that has somewhat reliable predictions for the next 10 difficulty increases? What kind of machines are responsible for the majority of the network hashrate, and at what difficulty will they become unprofitable due to power costs?
Would this work? http://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

Malwarebytes just stopped my computer communicating with this IP....
IP-BLOCK 88.208.1.24 (Type: outgoing, Port: 51385, Process: javaw.exe)
What does this mean?
OOOOO they might be using your computer for processing power... Kill it!

Are they still mining Bitcoins fast?
Yes and no. Yes, they should be making a ton of btc, but no not enough for a 51% attack.

No one can really predict, but I think that it will surpass even that in time. I think it will continue to grow right up until its mining limit.
It depends. The price depends on a lot of factors, so just because there are less btc to mine doesnt mean the price will go up. Yes, but mined Bitcoins will have higher value if the difficulty keep rising (or block reward halving and difficulty remain stable) I will guarantee you that it will stop at around 10k. It wont go past it, because no one is going to pay 1 mil for a bitcoin, people are going to sell wayyyy faster than buy, so the price will start to go down really fast to a reasonable price.

I have a small doubt. Some programs remove a person if they post less than 50 post in a single month. I post an average of 125 posts a month and cannot reach the 50 posts from 10th to 17th , so will I be made ineligible if I do not get 50 posts in a single month ?
No, I think that you'll simply have to sign up again after the 17th (as anyone else who wants to continue in this program). But I'm not sure if any posts you've made up to that point will be "lost", or since you started late, if they will be added to the next month's post count. Perhaps someone else can clarify that part. As I remember, Stunna said that if you didn't get enough posts to qualify after you had signed up (i.e. the number of posts you submitted after the sign-up) they could be added to the next month number of posts. What I am absolutely sure about is that this question has already been answered in the thread before... Stunna, can you confirm that? Ya, otherwise I would get 0.4 without even posting.

I'm sorry, you need to share story or tips about btc first Ok.... My tips: Don't waste your time with free btc-sites. There you can earn maybe 2 cent per hour. It is better to find some work and earn the minimum wage. Invest the money of your work in btc and become rich, in a few years if btc goes to 1 milion $. It wont. The price will stay at around 1k - 10k. Nobody is going to be buying btc if its 1 mil, only selling, thus the price will go down.

Damn.. took .02BTC to primedice and lost. Tried the martingale method. Bet 1) .001 <49.5 LOOSE Bet 2) .002 <49.5 LOOSE Bet 3) .004 <49.5 LOOSE Bet 4) .008 <49.5 LOOSE Bet 5) What I had left .005 <49.5 and I lost that one to. 5 Tries and I couldn't win a 50/50 chance, damn my luck ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) I prefer to use the double double What is that?

Litecoin does tend to follow BTC pretty closely, mainly because BTC and LTC are on almost every site, whereas other less popular ones are on specific sites.
Due to them being in the same places, when people panic sell BTC, LTC will almost certainly follow suit.
Too add onto that, some people hold both in btc and ltc so they panic sell BOTH.

Ripple is dead and has never lived. Just look at what TF could do with it. It's unreliable and not trustworthy.
Jeeze, dude...Ripple just went Open Source a little over a month ago....and has since gotten millions in venture capital backing from Google Venture, Andreessen Horowitz, et al. Ripple is adding hundreds of new accounts a day, have more than doubled the number of gateways, and volume has been steadily rising in every currency. Perhaps you prefer being slave to bank fees and slow transaction times....I don't. I prefer security and if slow transactions (10 minutes ain't slow) and fee's (which is only 13 euro cents at the current market price) are required for that, I will take it with both hands. TradeFortress scammed a shitload of people with fake Ripple shit. Have fun with your insecure network. What did tf do exactly with ripple? Also ya ripple is a mixture of paypal and bitcoin. If this were math, this would be the equation: 0 (paypal) * 10 (bitcoin) = 0 (ripple)! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I'm sorry, I've read your post several times and it simply doesn't make any sense to me. Why are you multiplying 0 times 10 exactly? What does the 0 represent? Why are you multiplying...in lieu of squaring, subtracting, dividing, etc.? Are you talking about XRP or the Ripple system? Again....perhaps I'm a bit daft, but I'm not getting the meaning of your post at all. 0 is what its ranked. IMO paypal sucks. 10 = bitcoin = AWESOME. I multiplied so I can get 0 which is what I think that ripple is. Its a mix between paypal and BTC and thats just not right. So, since 0 = the number of facts you present about paypal 0 = the relevance of paypal to this topic thread 0 = the number of facts used to quality your position about BTC 0 = is the amount of logic behind your choice to multiply Then…. 0 = is the amount that I care. If you cannot support your position with one shred of empirical evidence, then please don’t waste my time nor that of the reader’s of this forum with your inane babble. Paypal. Many people have issue with them. It doesnt affect people in their daily life and isnt really that bad for sending moeny to relatives but when it comes down to preordering things, bitcoin, and chargeback, things go to hell. I see ripple as a mix of paypal and btc This is the bitcoin forums. Spend some time and you will see all the pros. I guess you could add and then divide by two (get the average), but all in all ripple doesnt beat btc in any way.

I play many times but never win big most of time as I try to win big back with empty hands ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Well that's exactly what betting is.

Google Ventures kicked in maybe $200K from all of the research I've done, which, while no means is chump change, is chump change for Google.
I wouldn't follow that as any source for a trustworthy platform.
The thing about all of the coins, not just ripple is that the creators mine enough coins for thenselves. By enough, I mean a lot. How much is one ripple worth? Also now that its "open source" are you able to mine it?
