I had people telling me not to start getting into mining back in April 2016 because Eth was going to be PoS by the summer. No one actually knows when it will transition (if ever), except the developers, so just enjoy Eth as a PoW coin for now  Interesting, and I read somewhere that it's gonna be PoS end of the year |

Isn't proof of stake distributing coins based on claiming it? Then why do we still need to mine coins like ETH?
Thanks in advance for the answers

Hi,
How do you really proof your stake in ETH? Do people with more ETHs have a huge unfair advantage?

How do you cash out from trading? or is your money forever stuck in coins that are not cashable lol.
You can transfer your coins in and out, just not money. |

Just a thought. What happens if there is a MIM scam involving bitsquare transactions? Example https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1604317.0TLDR: Somebody transfers fiat to your bank account. You transfer bitcoins out. Transaction completed (So you think). Then a police complaint is made, saying that the money transfer was for a car that you had to sell and you have now scammed that person. Thats one reason I still prefer the centralized exchanges like localbitcoins. That is the reason I am willing to pay that extra fees. For this problem, I have recently started increasing the minimum number of trades requires for a person to trade with me at a higher number. Doesn't that happen to localbitcions too? the scenario that you cited. |

Manfred, I've been playing with Bitsquare and I truely support a DEX system. As crypto users mature they will turn to DEX.
The challenge remains with the spread. I've just put in a LTC of 2% in CNY for half a day and so far none has picked up. Maybe 2% is on the high side.
Granted Bitsquare might not be popular in the far east (yet) though I think that's where your growth opportunity is. The connected LTC peers are 12 so I am guessing it's thin across the board.

What were the fees showing as? as long as you can look on blockchain.info and it shows a fee higher than 10 sats/byte you can always try and use the ViaBTC TX Accelerator. If it comes up less than 10 sats/byte, you can give me the TXID and I can try pushing it through another service that I know  I set 0.00008908 btc/kb and it went through in 30 minutes |

Maybe weith SegWit2X we will see bitcoin heading to 4mb, hence as fast as litecoin.

Thanks all, especially to HCP for the very detail and graphic explanation Have just sent out the broadcast (though I suspect the fees might be too low) and let's see how it goes! |

Hi guys,
Is there any way I can merge all my coins into a single address. It's easier to use a single address to link to an airdrop (GBYTE in case you are wondering).

How do i deposit WAVES coins bought at Bittrex into the client? I have a light client and when I click "deposit WAVES" all it shows is a "deposit from card" which is essentially to buy WAVES from Indacoin.

it's been up since 2015 and the last time i checked was hesitant to use their service, and this time again their exchange was non accessible from openledger.info.
The idea seems to be quite novel since they started in 2015.
Any experience with them?

Is Bitsquare (Bisq) using Tor network when accessing our wallet in the desktop client?
Exchanges such as blockchain.info blocks Tor IP for security reasons, is there risks?
|
|
|
|
Congratulations! The interface looks very neat, especially so given its done in Java , look forward to test out my first trade with bisq |

Makes perfect sense, I'll just lease my small amount of Waves to other miners |
|
|
|
Which non-BRIC non-OECD do you predict will be developing fast? Note: if you state your own country, it's good to tell us that's where you're from |

Thanks guys. And @kimuskura you are right, I should have asked it in the thread |

Just to understand Waves signature campaign logic,
If I am a full member and the reward is 0.00015 BTC per post for full member and the minimum post is 20 per week.
So the reward per week is 0.00015 x 20 x 2500 (assume BTC price) = 7.5 USD.
Did I get it right?

I hold very little Waves at the moment so making 1% from my Waves coins might not make sense.
Anyhow, is it worth it financially to run a Waves node, maybe as a pool.

Why did litecoin manage to get SegWit so fast while bitcoin is still slow and painful.
The creator of litecoin Charlie Lee supported it, talked with the necessary people and implemented a plan that no one had any real issues with hence it was approved sealed and a done deal. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/litecoin-creator-charlie-lee-urges-jihan-wu-to-signal-for-segwit-antpool-obliges/(Also the transaction capacity was not near the 1MB limit yet so a lot less impact they have more time to study things later) Bitcoin the foundation and other groups suggested it met pushback and hence we had a blockscale debate on the best implementation due to a variety of political monetary and strategic issues that scaling presented and the transaction limit was approaching so issues and debate hence drama. Unlike litecoin bitcoin has no center and its creator was hiding in the shadows and does not appear in public. This is one of the major reasons why activating segwit will take a very long time. Another thing is that there are different groups having different sides and will have their own code and will not stick to segwit. To make segwit activated there is a need for a consensus, but a consensus is very hard to get thus UASF is created to make sure that everything will be in favor of the bitcoin holders. With UASF in the picture segwit activation has become possible. But in order to reach that far the bitcoin community has encountered many problems and challenges. If SegWit2X is activated will UASF be dropped? |
