4241  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mempool is nearly empty, less than 0.2MB. People still paying more 200sat/byte on: November 10, 2020, 06:31:44 AM
Wonderful, current total mempool transactions are 1516 with an average transaction fee only $0.33, even with fee 14 sat/byte will be confirmed wthin an hour and 3 sat/byte within 6 hours. Seems like the calm after the storm, since last week it was insane.
Strange to see many transactions still push it to a higher fees, I check auto fee on electrum is 62 sat/byte, so probably some people are spamming the networks.
Inaccurate information. What you gave is inaccurate in the past 8 hours. The screenshot is for visual mempool size last 8 hours. At its highest, the total size is less than 12 MB. One block will take 1 MB from the tip of mempool size. Get visual plot last 8 hours there: https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#1,8h


If you want to narrow the window you can choose 2 -hr, and you will see the temporary size of mempool is 1.6 MB. With fee rate at 1 satoshi / (v)byte, your transaction can get first confirmation next 2 - 3 blocks (half of an hour).


Sites such as buybitcoinworldwide.com, bitcoinfees.net and bitcoinfees.earn.com are still advising users to pay more than 300 Satoshi per Byte for their transactions. Unfortunately, a lot of the users use these websites to decide on the amount of fee they should pay.
Sometimes they don't have available options to control fees especially if they move bitcoin from exchanges, casinos, and marketplaces.

Quote
Just a few hours back, my transaction got confirmed, after I paid just 4 Satoshi per Byte as the transaction fee.
Your transaction would be confirmed even if fee used is at 1 satoshi / (v)byte. Hovering mouse on the chart for mempool size, you will see total size of mempool at the times it dived to bottom (less than < 1 MB). If mempool size is less than 1 MB, it means all temp unconfirmed transactions will be confirmed next 1 block.
4242  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Metamask Swap Clarification on: November 10, 2020, 06:05:03 AM
The total amount of ETH you get by swap from UNI will be deducted by swap fee. It is estimated fee and you should know your swap can be succeeded or failed depends on the fee you use.

Gas price and gas limit. If you use gas limit is too low and if the ETH network is in a crazy mode, you will fail with low gas limit. Gas limit can be small or big depends  upon the simplicity or complexity of smart contracts.

If you get a failed transaction, you still lose Gas fee. It is important and economical if you remember to check network condition, and make sure your transaction will be confirmed, not failed with relevant Gas price and Gas limit.

If we add to this the current situation caused by the pandemic which includes a collective fear followed by job loss, company closures and fear of investing (from small investors), then it is more than clear who is responsible for the price of BTC rising.
In fact, the unemployment rates did not too low compare to previous presidencies. This year, the pandemic triggered the rate down terribly but it did not last too long.

Please check my thread on this: Price of Bitcoin, gold and the unemployment rates in the USA.
After skyrocketing to the peak, the unemployment rate decreased to almost the same rate at the beginning of Obama's second presidency (in 2012). Not too bad! Of course, here I am talking about the rate only and there are more things happen behind the scene (can worse than any imagination or expectation).

It should not be completely forgotten that DeFi plays a significant role when it comes to investments of small investors, because the total investment at the end of September amounted to as much as $11 billion.
I agree with you. Whales invested in DeFi tokens at low price (I believe it because they are whales) and the ones bought DeFi tokens at high values are small, retailed investors, not whales. DeFi tokens have fallen 10, 20, 50, 100 times from their all time highs withinn a few months. It is a worse nightmare compares to the altcoin falls in 2018 and 2019.

@DdmrDdmr,

I thank you for your request and I have some for you. There are some documents (official or unofficial) sparsely reported. For unofficial, secondary and third-party analytic reports, their validity and correctness are unknown. Fortunately, somewhat we have some figures to have raw insights on historic changes with crypto exchanges' growths.

The crypto market in 2017 and 2018 are crazy and the exponential growths of crypto exchanges are consequently unavoidable. In turn, Customer supports were in serious trouble (Poloniex then Bittrex, they all were surpassed by Binance). You can read articles and get statistics for Poloniex, Coinbase. I will dig with Bittrex for documents.

I don't have too much time now so that I can neither read them all nor dig more and make a Meta-analysis summary report here. I might come back later.

Hello tranthidung. I spotted a small typo in the OP
I much appreciated your findings and this report. They are helpful. Never see those typos after months. I already fixed them in OP.

For this part I'd recommend also a few topics, all being related to forum's history; feel free to add them, if you consider suitable. I also tried to sort them by category:
I thank you again. They are informative historic topics and I recalled that I saw them a while ago in another thread (not remembered who made that compilation thread).

I won't add them here but if there is no compilation thread for it, I gonna create one. Let me check.


Maybe you're thinking about this topic of mine?
Perfect. It is the thread I was thinking of (and it is yours).  Smiley
4246  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Has interest in bitcoin from community increased significantly yet? on: November 09, 2020, 03:44:27 AM
Data from Google trend has its disadvantages but let's look at it and get very raw overview (with some sort of bias) on community's interests in Bitcoin from 2009 to Nov 2020.

Despite of the rally in bitcoin price recent weeks and it hits highest price in last 3 years, the interests from community have not yet increased at the same level. I expect to see more increases in search statistics and it therefore can help increase adoption of bitcoin, and capital flows as well as its price.

Best things not yet to come so please make your HODL preparation!

Despite that, it might not be a bad idea to have some kind of consolidated thread with all the info you could ever want about merits.  Maybe there's someone motivated enough to create such a thing?  
I have my unofficial service for such special requests. It works manually for specific requests. Feel fee to drop me your request and I will sort it out.

Unofficial service to get your merit statistics, plots, etc.. For plots, I have time series plots (daily, weekly, monthly), percent changes of daily/weekly merits with median values of all time, box plots (stratified by years).

You are in top 100 merit-earners so you can get some statistics of yours there: Weekly earned merits (median) of top 100 merited users
4251  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Best DEX trading platform on: November 08, 2020, 12:43:59 PM
General advice

With DEX, coin lockers are most terrible trade partners and you will have coin-locking sometimes. To avoid coin-locking you should
  • Choose highly trusted trade partners. They are probably not a scammers and don't lock your coins.
  • Trade with small amount (not too small not too big, I meant). Too small trade can eat up your profits by transaction fee. Too big trade, if you have a few coin-locked trades, all your funds will be locked and you won't be able to trade after that
  • Disputes always need time to be resolved (depends on support tickets, disputes on the systems)

Never release your bitcoin if you won't receive money (in fiat or other payment types)

4252  Economy / Economics / Re: Nice price for bitcoin on the coinmarketcap.com . A little less, as 1.00 BTC :D on: November 08, 2020, 11:25:53 AM
It is a very shortly lasting data error, I believe so.

1 BTC is always worth 1 BTC according to the price chart on coinmarketcap.com https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/

4253  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reminder: prepare your wallet before the next bull run on: November 08, 2020, 11:03:38 AM
Less than 11k transaction in the mempool, spend this Sunday to consolidate your smaller inputs and make sure you have your new UTXOs on bech32 native-segwit addresses. I did my transaction for 7sats per byte; do it until it lasts.
https://mempool.space/
When did you make that transaction?

7 satoshis/ byte is a high fee. You spend 3 times than the fee you can use today. The mempool size for waiting transactions with fee rates 2+ satoshis/ (v)byte is 1.5 MB and you can get first confirmation for your transaction in next 2 or 3 blocks with that fee rate. If you want to have quick transaction (confirmed in next 1 block, 3 satoshis/ (v)btye is enough).

Unconfirmed transactions at 1 satoshi/ (v)byte can be confirm next hours but I doubt that all of them will be confirmed this weekend.

4255  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: [Info] Trading Discussion Groups on: November 07, 2020, 01:33:41 AM
So far this t.me/BTCGnosis is the only trading group that was very useful to me. Most of the trading group above has a lot of members already and very hard to interact whenever you have a specific question to the trading guru.
Trading or signal groups are bad in this aspect. When people join those signal groups, they tend to be more dependent on signals and don't mind to learn and find opportunities from their own works, analyses, investigations and risk managements. They don't know why they get profits or get losses and months with participation in such groups don't help them to be a better trader (their balance can rise or fall but their knowledge and skill still be the same).

Quote
This is a good thread though and please don't add those paid groups or there so called premium signal group, that is a BS group that sending fake signal to the tokens that they have position open early.
Many of them are pumping groups especially for low volume coins or tokens. In the same group, the earlier signal receivers (due to online / offline status) the higher chance to enter at lower price. If you join party of pumping group in later phase, you are at higher risks of loss.


I don't attack OP. Just basic rules to join or not join signal groups and what to do after joining.
4256  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Calculation To Know The Value Of (X) Amount of BTC in Your Local Currency. on: November 07, 2020, 01:03:12 AM
There are some factors you need to take into your calculation when you are in a trade. They are decisive factors for your final income

  • Amount for the trade: in BTC
  • Who will be responsible for transaction fee: you or your trade partner?
  • Fee for trading transaction: the higher fee rate you use to broadcast your transaction, the less final income in BTC the trade partner will receive or the loss you will accept if you are waiving the fee for your trade partner
  • Rates of local fiat at time of the trade and when you want to take profit later

The first 3 factors are important because it decides the total amount you or your trade partner will get in BTC. Don't worry much about fiat value because you will have chance to cash out your BTC.


This tool is good but it does not have Naira. You can drop your suggestion in their ANN thread: [ANN] BitcoinCalculator.org - Convert price of BTC to Fiat. The topic title is missing a point because their tool is a two-way tool: you can use it to convert BTC to fiat and vice versa (fiat to BTC).

https://bitcoincalculator.org/

Cryptowisser.com can help you with fee and exchange filters: https://www.cryptowisser.com/exchanges/?coins=&fee=1.9&continent=AF. You can look at their reviews for specific exchanges as well.

List of top 100 merit earners, sorted descendingly by median of weekly earned merits:
Algorithm:
The idea are a narrower IQR and higher p25 are better. IQR plays its role as spread of weekly earned merits. p25 plays its role as lower threshold of 50% weekly earned merits.
  • Descending median
  • Ascending IQR (IQR = p75 - p25)
  • Descending p25
The new algorithm means if 2 users have same median, their ranks will be decided by IQR, which user has lower IQR will have higher position in the list.
Next, if 2 users still have same IQR, the last indicator will be used: p25. The user has higher p25 value will have higher position.

4260  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you received a call/text recently from a friend/fam asking about Bitcoin? on: November 06, 2020, 02:35:18 AM
This conversation I think can provide a unique insight on where things might be heading..
If people around you know you are bitcoin investor, then with bitcoin bull run and massive news on media, they will try to contact you for advise and more.

My experience and my advise are:
  • Give them basics and let them time to self-discover about bitcoin.
  • Emphasize that
    • They should afford loses before they can get profits
    • Prepare knowledge to avoid scams
    • Don't make loan to invest especially if they don't have any idea and plan for their investment
  • Don't accept Investment trust from people around you, you can get troubles.
  • Why?
    • Those guys don't have any idea about bitcoin and bitcoin market.
    • They only want profits: being greed and don't afford losses. They dump their pressure on you with questions, profits, etc. Manage own funds always easier and have more fun than manage funds of the others.
    • It's bad to accept all risk and pressure when they are always greed and lazy
