Just probably for fancy, its not like they can make it decentralized unless they are creating their own token under an algo which any one can mine or perhaps under a platform like ETH. If the blockchain technology are just there for tracking the fiat of individuals, its still not going to be something as useful as it should be, the government still hold its value and not the market itself.


Why would any centralized company/organization wants to use blockchain? they are in control of everything and they have all the records.
It's not like banks trying to double spend their own money, since people can't access their system there is no need to implement such technology.

Yes, its probably just for records so they can track the riches of someone.

It doesn't take 5 minutes to know whether an offer has the possibility of it being scam when you know which is too good to be true and not. Sometimes analyzing just the whole offer can be determined already whether its a scam especially if the other party will insist you to send first  the btc.

But if you mean ICO, it does have some grains of truth whether the developers are scamming indirectly.
3543  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do i start an Escrow Service? on: February 27, 2017, 03:57:28 PM

Being an escrow is a very tempting role. Holding the amount for the transaction and then take btc as fee for doing such a simple is job really a dream role for someone who wants to earn big by doing less. OP isn't just the only who dream about that. I do too. But seeing there are people who are pretty reliable which people are already recognizing them, I don't see any way a newbie can jump in and become one of the escrow without doubts of both parties.
3544  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I'm leaving Bitcoin on: February 27, 2017, 03:41:47 PM
its not a good idea to leave bitcoin
bitcoin will be a huge in the future and the best of payment on the internet.

He just possibly made this statement in the heat of his emotions. But at this moment he may have cooled down and realized that bitcoin is very valuable. When he made this post one bitcoin has not yet reached one thousand dollars each and so after seeing the price of bitcoins he knew already that he will make a big regret if he let go of bitcoin.

zhoutong was Last Active:   January 29, 2017, 10:06:15 AM so he still is loggin here int he forum, maybe he is checking what is going in in the forum and the price. I don't think someone will actually leave btc forever. If you have been involve in btc and already learned how fucked up centralized fiat are, you won't get over there again without looking back. No matter what happen to that bitcoinhack that OP mentioned, its the past already. Worse things had already happened like ICO scams, exchanges declaring hacked and so on.
3545  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is 1000 btc Possible on: February 27, 2017, 03:34:41 PM
1000BTC is possible but I doubt you can do it easy, you have to work hard for it before achieving that amount. Unless you get to have a bright idea for the blockchain technology and set up an ICO scam like the rest of the users who simply thought of making clones and then do some ICO. Even scammers don't get to accumulate 500BTC for their ICO actually.

There are legit ways of course like providing an honest services and products for btc users or maybe owning a share on gambling sites.
3546  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are the most expensive things sold for bitcoins? on: February 27, 2017, 03:27:44 PM
I wouldn't be selling such if I was the owner unless I really hit rock bottom. I wonder what hidden reasons are for selling it.

AFAIK, Someone anonymous spend about BTC 800 for buy a villa at Bali ( Indonesia ) on 19/3/2014
He made payment through BitPremier ! It was the most expensive things sold for bitcoins at my country

http://tekno.kompas.com/read/2014/03/20/1608466/Pertama.Bitcoin.Dipakai.Beli.Vila.di.Bali

Did happen this 2014 so its still pertty cheap for the buyer. I wonder if he kept the rest of that 800 BTC on his wallet up tow now because he still has tons of USD. Having just 20BTC is pretty rich these days. Investing it for long term on altcoins of simply on BTC is going to be profitable for hims still.

3547  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will BTC overtake gold this month ? on: February 27, 2017, 03:15:20 PM
Yes i think it is possible that it can beat gold it has already reached 1160$ / BTC
So i think if everything goes into the favour of bitcoin and Mr. Satoshi Cheesy we will see the price of bitcoin around 1500$/BTC Before May

Speculation says BTC will be going up to 1400-1600 USD. No matter what BTC has prove itself to go up all the time so eventually its will be more than the price of XAU.

If for once we get to see the price of btc is more than XAU, would you consider buying XAU later?  Xau has stand the test of time and its value is very stable unlike bitcoin that kept moving up and down. Having XAU seem an assurance of wealth.
3548  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which is more profitable, trading with Forex or trading with Crypto Currencies? on: February 27, 2017, 02:51:09 PM
I used to trade with Poloniex but I do not earn a lot, my loses from trading is higher than my profit, I think due to Bitcoin crazy price up and down. Until I try Forex trading using WhaleClub, where I trade currencies using Bitcoin.

To be honest I found trading with real currencies like: GBP/USD, EUR/USD is more profitable than trading with BTC/ETH, etc..

Do you agree?

Never heard of Whaleclub but its true you can profit more on forex if you have the system. The indicators had been mastered by several traders already which is why somehow its almost accurate to predict where the market is going. So easy to predict which now makes the market easily gets overbought and you have to exit before the market moves against you. Traders knew that leverage is a double edge sword it sometimes cuts you with the margin call  Grin

Why did you decide to try whaleclub?
3549  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me your predictions about Bitcoin on: February 26, 2017, 06:12:38 PM


On a trading site trollbox I've read its going to be 1600 by next month. I do think its possible really so if its going to go on such price, we'd rather be keeping our coins for now and lets just make investment after. I have moved my Altcoins to btc already after it goes $1000. If the price rise still after march, I'm gonna recover the passwords of the wallet I have forgotten to use for months. I purposely keep my coins there only for emergency lol Seeing the price rockets this high, this is going to be considered emergency.
3550  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Which hardware wallet is the most secure for my Bitcoins? on: February 26, 2017, 05:26:50 PM
The forum suggest this https://bitcoin.org/en/download of course its the safest. The downside however is that it has to sync which takes almost forever. I have tried this the very first time I bought my btc and run my patience out after 2 hours. Just look at how much GB the ledger had become over the years and will continue to go bigger. I decided to try some other else like armoury and  electrum which somehow works swiftly.

I think its safer still so long as your wallet isn't compromised by someone. Just download the wallets from the legit site where it should be. If you find it on filesharing site then its something different.
3551  Economy / Economics / Re: Let's Be Honest. We Are Waiting for $100/BTC to buy on: February 26, 2017, 04:42:26 PM

Bitcoin is too big this time to fail that would go down to $100.  The late adopters of Bitcoin who bought at about $700 is going to cry a river. But now that BTC has been known already and being used by huge companies, there's no possible reason for the price to drop down to a hundred. 

But I wonder if that segwit can really affect miners and btc price will gradually decline, which coin do you think will replace it?
3552  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin provide income on line? on: February 26, 2017, 03:55:41 PM
many of my friends did not work but a lot of money away was great when compared, to me that is still working in the factory, I was confused from where producer obtained from bitcoin?
Bitcoin is great opportunities to those who don't have work. Why? Because you can earn bitcoin by claiming faucet and much better you can earn money trough bitcoin by joining in bitcointalk signature campaign and almost my friends are here they don't have any problems in money because they have more income in bitcoin than to real work in offline.

I've read they even do it like their full time job. Just imagine how much they could earn and claiming it supported their family is definitely a good option. But for someone who just earn 35$ a weeks for signature isn't enough really. You would still need a full time job and make this signature just a hobby for your free beer while you keep an eye on your bitcoin investment everyday. Lets say you earn $35 a week and that means $140 the whole month.  Not enough to buy you a good meal everyday.
3553  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in Asia on: February 25, 2017, 07:39:41 PM

I'm from a 3rd world country in Southeast Asia and using bitcoin all the time. Its not used by the majority but still available for them, the number of users are increasing every day because I notice them on facebook groups and my fellow country men are embracing not just bitcoin but also some other altcoins. We do have our own too which is PesoBit and I'm one of the user that keep a stash for the future.

I am currently hired by someone from Japan who also are into ETH and BItcoin, they are currently creating an exchange and I'm one of the 3rd party they  hire for their promotion later.
3554  Economy / Economics / Re: Reason why you should Buy bitcoin now on: February 25, 2017, 03:13:02 PM
Despite how the remittance companies hold my coins, I still kept my faith of earning more bitcoin because of its increasing value. If those investors don't see how its price rise that even a dumb traders can take advantage of bitcoin money. Even someone without knowledge about btc can profit after just a year of their investment.

 I thought its going to stop at $1050 last week abut wen't more than 1100. If that ain't a good reason to buy, i don't know else what's good reason.
3555  Economy / Economics / Re: What if? Just asking opinion on: February 23, 2017, 08:55:48 PM
Everything comes to a stand still when there's a war so that wouldn't be different if a Third World War was to broke out. Bitcoin will suffer in such a circumstance just like any other thing or systems in place.

Have you ever watched war images? If there is a war, the bitcoins will not be in the same place. Your computer, your house, your car will not be in the same place.
Maybe you will not even be alive. Your family, you can lose everything you love.

Bitcoin is a money hidden in digital media. If you can not access your digital media, you can not access the bitcoin.

The movie Incendies - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incendies was the saddest film I saw about war. All her life was shattered and end up in Canada.
Before she died she left a wiling testament for his kids and the kids discover things they didn't knew about her mom which was rape during the war and her rapist was their brother who turnout to be a torturer of the prison camp. Warlords are the only who can see where things are going. If war broke, Bitcoin will be displaced and may no longer be valuable.
3556  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You can easily predict Btc/usd prices direction. on: February 23, 2017, 01:57:16 PM
I have find out, that bitcoin prices is highly predictable by used trend line technical analysis on 4 hours charts for day traders. Though fundamental issue do move the market against it but not regularly. Trading is a very risky business and you should not venture into it without adequate knowledge on how it works.

You state that you can predict where the market is going for every 4 hours, that means you may also be looking at the chart of usd/eur on metatrader.  Are you using the indicators for binary trading option?
Its the one way to earn more when you can predict where the market is going in particular time frame. But why on just 4 hour chart. The faster you can earn if you can predict the price on 5 minute or 15 minute chart.
Can you at least explain how you do it?  there had been a lot of strategies detailed online though maybe you just rediscover one.


3557  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have found a wallet with 40 BTC on: February 23, 2017, 08:27:22 AM
If you have the Privkey to a bitcoin address then the basic principle is that you own the Bitcoin.  If i found it i would put it somewhere safe and would prob return it to the owner when contacted.
If thats the case then you really have a good heart since you are still willing to give it back to the owner but the real problem is that how will you locate him since we all know that its hard to trace him up and for sure many scammer will do their best just to say that they own those bitcoins.

Sending a message would be a lot harder for he'd be anonymous unless the owner send another coins with a message along it. I doubt people read those messages along with the coins being received.
A person who somehow got about 40k+ USD would likely buy a samurai longer than 2 feet to protect himself and the money. Would salute if someone really return the money but for now, OP's story isn't something to believe.  

May we know exactly how he found the wallet and the private key? Let us see if its really possible.
3558  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Looking for business partner on: February 23, 2017, 07:44:06 AM
Bump...

You already have a negative feedback, its going to be  hard for you to have a business partner who would assume good faith from you.  I don't even think selling Microsoft keys is legal. I believe they are to be along with the CD installer for someone who bought those CD. I'm no microsoft user but I still think you are about to cheat them. Its not how it should work.

Those users who gave you red feedback may have also thought of this. You know for the fact Microsoft keys aren't for sale and yet you do it. That doubles the violation.  Grin

I was tempted to buy some tshirt with some Bitcoin designs on it. Just wanted to wear something like that and maybe find someone who is also into bitcoin in my area.

3560  Economy / Speculation / Re: 1 Bitcoin Costs 2000$ on: February 23, 2017, 06:54:46 AM
I want to believe that 1 Bitcoin will reach $2000 this year.  More probably at the end of 2017.  There are more people who are coming and joining the bitcoin economy.  The ETF will boost this and whether it is approved or not, it is irrelevant because Bitcoin certainly will reach $2000 in due time.

It won't be long and we'll see the price going 2k, a year or two isn't that far. So while you have the time to earn as much as possible, get more bitcoin into your stash for the future is brighter than you imagine.
I have been gathering more bitcoin these days which is why I have sold already the altcoins I've been keeping for months. I will just buy them later after all these are going to be cheaper still because of the people dumping it too. It won't stop at 2k though and so even with jsut few coins at hand, I may have just to keep them.

The more valuable BTC can be after 4 years from now because of the halving. I know its too far ahead but there is no where else to go. 4 years will soon come anyway.
