it's rather old, but here's a list of seedboxes accepting bitcoin

http://seedboxgui.de/guides/seedbox-providers-accept-bitcoin/

Doesn't seem to me those make sense for casual usage.

Bitfetch was ideal for me. I'd download 500MB to 4 Gigs or so once every 2 weeks on average. Doesn't make sense to buy any monthly planned stuff for that.

Bitcoin is very dangerous to trade. Its sensible for Schiff not to recommend it. Smart money figures it out on its own anyway.

Schiff will recommend Bitcoin once his Bitcoin stash has a similar value to his gold stash.

This might never materialize.

What are the main blockers for creating a full Trezor USB interface for Android devices?

Time.

Interfacing is easy - it's already done: https://github.com/trezor/trezor-android
Now we'd need someone to integrate it into an existing wallet or create a brand new myTREZOR app.

fork schildbachs wallet?

last time I talked to him he said bip32 was on his list.

it means the mission to infest bitcointalk and sway it into a bitcoin-negative site is working ... Jorge and the team will get their bonuses from Uncle Sam

I wonder why it turns out this way. Initially it was such a quality forum. People meant what they say and you can see that they actually think before they say. Right now, there are so many troll accounts with so many sub-quality posts.

It was worse in latter part of 2011.

Then we rallied for 2 years.

Anyone else in here use Circle?

I've never experienced a better way to buy bitcoins. So easy my grandma can do it.


I requested my invite May 27, 2014... and I have been waiting ever since... waiting , waiting and waiting.... In the end of july, sent them an e-mail requesting   a status update, and they said dont call us, we will call you.

lol, they slap you in your face by calling don't call us, if you deserve we will call you.

I wonder how they chose invitees. I just checked my email and I requested an invite on May 18th, and I got approved about 10 days ago. I guess they are doing so many a day?

probability of being selected is inversely proportional to the number of emails you sent them after requesting an invite.

note to self never do anything shady* with "hyphymikey's" bitcoins, they have been tied to his identity.  Cheesy

ps. remember to declare all the capital gains on those coins they in the IRS ledger.

* shady here in Canada - or at lease British Columbia is buying something at a garage sale, or lemonade from a kids lemonade stand and not self assessing the tax and sending it to the government. You are also expected to self asses the value of gifts from out of Provence calculate the tax (PST) and send a cheque to the government for there share.

failure to do so is against the law and tax evasion. The truth is we are all evading tax in BC Canada, just now if you can track the money and put an identity to it you can technically collect it.  

I'm sure other parts of the free world have laws just as asinine.

so just think about how you get your bitcoin.

Not best english, but very Good advice

what bullshit! He bases his call on the fact that $400 was the point at which the rally in November '13 had started. He said this twice. It didn't start at $400, but at $120.

He also says $400 has acted as support in the past, which is mainly true, but in and of itself no reason for a rally at this point.

In retrospect maybe he got a tip about paypal and made something up Wink



God we are a bunch of assholes we are even picking apart the good media.

I support people being this kind of "asshole".

next fight: "the good assholes" vs. "the circle jerkers" ?
3069  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Projected Minimum Cost per BTC over the next year on: September 24, 2014, 07:10:25 PM
I changed my mind, a growing competition doesn't necessarily force miners to sell their coins higher.
A growing competition will push out less efficient miners, so the miners are left with higher efficiency that can sell their coins even lower.
there is no lower boundry, more and more people will fold so the remaining miners will make more bitcoin and can afford to sell low.(since they made more coins than before).
So a higher difficulty or higher competition will not always lead to a higher BTC value.

correct. The hashrate (cost to mine) will adapt to price, not the other way around.

Bitcoin mining is a weird beast.

  • With gold mining, if price falls below production cost, inefficient gold mines will close down. Produce supply decreases, which has a positive effect on price.
  • With bitcoin mining, if price falls below production cost, inefficient bitcoin mines will close down AND the remaining mines will automatically become more efficient. Produced supply remains essentially constant and effective supply brought to the market can even increase (if miners have to sell a higher percentage of production), having potentially negative effect on price.

So nothing could take us up anymore. Only if a company like Paypal or Amazon would start accepting Paypal things would change. This is what i kept reading the last 6 months.

So Paypal accepts Bitcoin, we go up a little bit, just like everybody was hoping for and then you traders absolutely started dumping the shit out of the market.
Finally new people were motivated to buy again and you dumped straight in their face so you could take your 150 bucks profit.
Well done!
You stopped the only possible uptrend we could hope for at this point.
Really, well done idiots!

Please stop making posts wondering why the price won't go up.

Did you just buy at $450?

Sure sounds like it.

Bagholder!

paypal news potentially interesting, but I don't see how these two can mix.

I can see how they mix very well: as paypal being an off-chain BTC payments processor with "added value" (chargebacks, consumer protection).

They're currently doing it wrong, mistaking Bitcoin as purely a payment network instead of as a money (which it will become a good one, don't worry).

Well, at least they're sticking a toe in the water.
3075  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [ESHOP launched] Trezor: Bitcoin hardware wallet on: September 24, 2014, 06:33:07 AM
Which wallets are compatible for Trezor? What future wallets are being added? And about how long for those to be added?

I've been testing electrum + trezor (well, actually: using as my day-to-day wallet, really). It's "right around the corner", 2 weeks style Wink. Seriously, though: dust is settling and electrum is close to a release.
3076  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP. on: September 24, 2014, 06:31:20 AM
anybody stupid enough to lend out BTC for shorting deserves to lose ALL of them.
...and they probably will.
There's always default.

No, in this case there isn't. The borrower will be automatically force-liquidated by the platform. Lenders are protected well.
3077  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP. on: September 24, 2014, 06:25:39 AM
i smell Deflation.

investors are going to have to RunToSafety.  where will they go?  gold and silver?  i say NO WAY.

there's only Bitcoin if you want a scarce supply...

Come on, that's too bold to say for a 6bl market.
I sense spculator buys due to good news.

Bitcoin has still some ways to go before it's ready for the truly big move.

I hope the paper empire can kick the can down the road for yet another couple of years. (2-3?)

Am I correct in assuming that with messages like this one (#1125) https://blockchain.info/tx/cc38d740dc1999a803dbba0c48a82af994861e0767f6bcd7d6ceebe4e66b4678



it's the case that these outputs can never be spent and therefore they have to remain in the utxo (unspent transaction output) set permanently?
