The line between decentralised and centralised wallets is blurred. Electrum lets you keep your private key but connects to the Bitcoin network through one of a limited number of servers. Blockchain.info lets you keep your private key but you must access the Bitcoin network through its website. Coinbase is fully centralised because you don't know your private key, but Electrum and Blockchain.info are partly centralised.
How is electrum centralised when your private keys never leave your pc and you can do what ever you like with your coins. The only thing electrum needs is an internet connection. Centralized mean some central supreme authority watching over you and making decisions for you, decentralized mean no central authority, you are free to do what you like, thats the big difference between Electrum and Coinbase which don't let you know your private keys. Electrum's wallet connects to the Bitcoin network through one of a number of servers. One of those servers is what relays all your transactions to the Bitcoin network. You have to trust the server isn't malicious. If it's malicious your Bitcoins are less secure. With the full Bitcoin core wallet it doesn't matter if your wallet connects to a malicious node because it connects to multiple nodes at the same time, and ignores any malicious one. Is that part of the system decentralised, or is that part of the system centralised?
Electrum is stored on your device but relies on servers for transactions information. Some wallets store the entire blockchain but electrum does not. Wallets that do not store the blockchain locally are called lightweight wallets. Lightweight wallets have to query their servers each time they are run. So are you suggesting me to switch to Bitcoin Core, I can install it in my laptop as in my PC I don't have that much space left. Is Bitcoin core more secure than electrum, if thats the case I am giving it a try, hopefully it will run on Linux.

yes, I am currently on hold while collecting bitcoin. I have a hunch that is strong enough that the price of bitcoin will be higher than at present, and perhaps when the price of bitcoin rose to the highest price, maybe I'll sell bitcoin I have, then I will bring them together again, well I hope that it will made me get profit very much
That is what everybody is expecting actually, but let me tell you that even if we sell know (I personally exchanged some of my coins to USD now that the price was over 500 USD) we can still make profit, I got this coins when price was 395-400 so I think I acted right as I don't know the future, although I believe price will rise, nothing except death is sure in this world and no taxes are not sure anymore

I think you're mistaken. Not your bitcoin address (that's nowhere close to an ID ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ), but your ID. A proof of identity. A selfie of you holding up your driver's license, or showing a bill payment receipt. I heard that works. Not at all mistaken, I send them my real ID , jpg format but as I already said they only know I am using 1 Bitcoin address used in their website, they don't know for example if I have 99 other btc addresses so I am not mistaken at all.

Sorry to hear that, but 2FA is an absolute must nowadays, anyway you said you deposited 0.386btc which you would have never got back as eobot is a ponzi scam, it daily drops the amount you earn until you earn nothing. But I repeat this is an error of the user, 2FA adds 99% substantial security to any account if done right (in a clean safe PC).

If for example you live in a poor country and happen to be a full member here, now that the price of bitcoin is quite high, I think it can be considered half paying job in those poor countries. You can make 66 USD if you fulfill all of the requirements for Yobit signature campaign (without spamming of course and with a good english) and that is quite some additional cash to poor countries, if you happen to be Sr.Member you can make about 100 USD a month with Yobit with the actual price of bitcoin of more than 500 USD now. It all depends on where you live, still even if you live in a developed country ,you can buy your self a nice perfume with this amount ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) in some Asian countries 100$ a very good salary.. if someone can earn 100$ every month just to using his bitcoin knowledge and good English, then it is very good opportunity for them. signature campaigns are could be good part time job and worth the time if they run for long time. most of good signature campaign will get closed after few months(some will get closed in only few weeks).. so Signature campaigns are good. but depending on signature campaign is not good. always be prefer for closing signature campaigns. and don't leave your day time job for signature campaign. I live in the Philippines and I think joining signature ad campaign is a good decision for me. Instead of just watching random stuffs on Facebook, Youtube and Instagram, I'm posting in this forum instead. I'm improving my english plus I get paid. It's not much though compared to when you have a regular job, but I'm still a college student so I don't actually need tons of money. As for me, signature campaigns are worth my time because I have nothing to do except assignments and some occasional projects in school. I waste a lot of time playing Dota2 and searching what PTC site can I earn money from, unfortunately, I end up searching for hours but can't see a legit one. Well in PTC you will never earn up to 3 USD per day without referrals, while you can earn this amount here in the majority of the signatures, considering at least minimum Sr.Member rank, so I suggest you stop looking for PTC-s as they are a waste of time if you don't get any referrals (active ones) to help you earn good money there. Legit ones are Neobux,Clixsense so far.

Even if some people don't want to admit it , everyone should understand that both exchanges and debit cards services defeat the whole purpose of using Bitcoin in the first place because they ask you to send your real information's while you are probably using Bitcoin because it's anonymous . So , It really depends on you and you only (and how much you care about your privacy) . I personally wouldn't send them anything .
I will also prefer to not send them anything, but if you need badly that debit card, I can send them my ID. Of course this way they will have only 1 of my btc address, while I can remain anonymous with for example the other 99 addresses I use, so not a very big problem for me in the end.

Cloud mining most of times is a bad way to invest. The halving can make it much more complicated.
I will not invest in the cloud mining now. I will wait until the S9 comes out and evaluate the situation then. Situation then will be pretty clear, S9 is based on 14-16nm so the performance will much better than S7 , of course we can expect at least 6 months of profit as a beginning with S9 but maybe more so it should be a situation to invest in mining for at least 6 months once S9 comes out.

Today game Sweden vs Slovenia
Here there are quite a few good options to play, but I think a combined bet like this one is very good in term of odds. Sweden ML + Over 2 goals, and the odd is almost 3 @2.89 If you want to play it safe then a both teams to score can be a safe bet here.

I think we all here trust the major casinos, the one I trust more is directbet.eu as I play sports betting there usually and they pay you instantly after the event finishes, different from other casinos and sportsbook where you have to wait until the house confirms that the game is won. But overall pretty much all major betting houses are trusted in here.

Very few games to play today ,and majority of tipsters offering that Sweden game as premium tip of theirs, however I have decided to go a different way, a bit risky but lets try
Argentina Primera B Metropolitana UAI urquiza vs Flandria 2@ 2.10 odd,
I don't know very well this league but lets try a high odd today and lets hope for a win.
please correct me if i got it wrong mam but are you going to play with flandria to win? just curious because your odd seems to be attracting me its a risky bet but worth to win, just let me know if that is correct and ill be betting some of my profits from spain tips you just gave last time. thanks for the spain wins. Yes I am playing for Flandria to win, however if you want to be sure, you play DC X2, Flandria to win or to draw @1.35 , but you can bet a little profit for Flandria to win @2.1 Also remember nothing is sure in gambling and thats why its called gambling.

That happens when you rely on third party to use your bitcoins, if this problems would have happened in Multibit for example, you just needed a rysync with network and problem would be solved. Its still a mystery to me why many people continue to use online web wallets rather than desktop ones, hope one day this mystery will be solved and I will not read anymore of these topics.

Maybe Mclaren was not that impressive but as Ron Dennis said, he was fighting against Ferrari and Williams, and as far as I know Fernando Alonso was 5th ,just one place behind ferrari while the Williams were far behind, so for me they have made quite some improvements but this was a track that suited them. It will be the Montreal race to show if the Honda engine truly have improved or not, remember last year when Alonso was saying, GP2 engine, GP 2 engine, lets see what happens there.

Today wanna post a tip which seems like a no brainer and hope its a win.
Spain vs Bosnja Hercegovina Spain to win @1.50 odd
I consider a very good odd for Spain 1.50 when its playing home so hopefully this will be a win today.
Going to watch F1 now , good luck on your bets.
Lol Spain didnt play at home ground, its a friendly game and they play at AFG Arena (St.Gallen venue at Switzerland). Lol I didn't know that anyway was a easy win and thats what is important for me. Anyway thanks for letting me know. I will be posting my last 2 tips tomorrow and after tomorrow and then moving on vacation, will not be present in Euro 2016 with my tips, although I am leaving an advice to all of my followers here, always bet against underdogs, in the majority of the time, you will come victorious.

Italy vs Scotland
I am thinking of Italy Money Line 1.55 but I remember a game it was friendly again like this against Scotland and Italy drawed 1-1 back then, but honestly I am thinking Italy will win tonight, of course I don't have any clue about the players of Scotland, but Italy playing home should be a win.

Sorry for Atletico Madrid, but that its precisely what happens when you lose a golden opportunity in 47 minute, if it was scored I am sure we would have seen a better half and a win for Atletico Madrid, still congratulations to Real Madrid on 11th trophy of UCL.

Norrkoping - Elfsborg - 1 This seems right for me. Hacken game is pretty close but in this game Nörrkoping is favorite and should get the win at home.
Not good final score Norrkoping 0 vs 0 Elfsborg no goals really weird usually they always score but not for today Elfsborg controlled the game until the last minute but all the attacks did not succeed Norrkoping defensive play at home with a better ranking than Elfsborg really weird. It may look weird but is not, Elfsborg is the team who have spent most on buying the players, in fact Elfsborg coach needs quite some results as he got all the players he wanted. But Norrkoping not scoring at home no matter against who plays it maybe weird yeah from this point of view.
