4361  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Binance Downtimes during Panic Trading will cause the next Crypto Market Crash on: February 24, 2021, 03:25:41 PM
As others have already stated, Binance is not the only exchange that crashes.  I remember signing up for Coinbase as my first exchange many years back and ever since then they have crashed relentlessly and I do believe they are the largest exchange on earth right now.  Binance crashing will not cause the next major crash, most people have already experienced this and still "in the game".
4362  Economy / Collectibles / Re: HOW TO BUY OR SELL HERE... on: February 23, 2021, 08:07:43 PM
thank you for the info provided on OP, I have the issue of I have some physical coins to sell, but have not done so due to the "postal scam" where the receiver claims it was pealed and cashed out before arrival, what steps can I make to reduce/illuminate this issue, thanks.

use an escrow to receive, validate, verify the coins before they re-ship to the buyer. Also - if you know the address of the coin and ship it tracked, pretty easy to see when it was peeled and swept as it will be either before it arrived or after it arrived.

who is the most trusted escrow close to the UK?

I would ask that question in this thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2439910.0
4363  Economy / Economics / Re: COIN PRICES CRASHING!!! SELL BITCOIN NOW!!!! on: February 23, 2021, 03:25:38 PM
Bitcoin price is dipping!  Sell into cash now!  When I got up this morning I noticed all coins were starting a dip on Coinmarketcap, so I went to my trading accounts and sold all my Bitcoin into cash.  When the dip bottoms out I will buy back in, but I'm not about to lose my profits I have gained this past month!

SELL NOW!!!  Help the prices crash the PHOQUE out so my gains may be even greater!!!  And yours too, I guess.

Are you a financial advisor ? I didn't think so..you really shouldn't be giving financial "advice" if you don't know what you're doing, and that is pretty clear that you do not by reading this.  You are trying to time the market, and that 9 out of 10 times ends up backfiring on people unless they happen to get lucky.  You have no idea what people are holding bitcoin for.  Not everyone is holding it just for an investment like you are.  You also don't have any clue when the "dip bottoms out" is going to be.  Hence the term "trying to time the market".  This is reckless advice and not suited for everyone.
4364  Economy / Economics / Re: Where the correction ? on: February 23, 2021, 03:20:48 PM
to be honest , i just invested all of my money into crypto on the middle of november , as we see now , everything go green , i even got 12 X ROI just for hold crypto like EGLD,INJ,CAKE,XVS, the question , where the correction , it is the party will be over soon ? or it will be bigger since as we know recently big company like TESLA even accepted bitcoin , or its just fake bull ? if yes , i cant imagine how big the correction will happen.

First off I hope you know the risks involved when you put all of your "eggs in one basket".  This is something that I never advise my clients on doing.  It is very risky and quite frankly a bit reckless.  Second, you mention receiving a 12% return on investment for a slew of different coins ( shitcoins), is this simply the gain you had, or is this some sort of interest bearing deal? If it's the latter, I must warn you that is a very high interest percentage that no one can guarantee in these times, so be extra careful because these high interest bearing coin deals are huge scams for the most part.
4365  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Instutional imvestors are Here wall street Style of action Now on: February 23, 2021, 03:14:17 PM
Lol what?? What are you even trying to say here? You're all over the place there bud.  What it sounds like to me is you bought in to bitcoin and have since lost a good portion with this recent sell off and now you're upset.  Sounds like you bought bitcoin for all the wrong reasons and didn't have a realistic expectation of what was going to happen. 

I am not sure where  you're going with this tying in "Wall Street". 
4366  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Unconfirmed Transactions on Trezor and Wasabi - Help Needed on: February 23, 2021, 02:59:46 PM
Thanks for all the help everyone. I got busy yesterday and didn't have time to come back to this thread, will give this a read over and try and fix this issue shortly.  Thanks again guys for all the responses !
4367  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Unconfirmed Transactions on Trezor and Wasabi - Help Needed on: February 22, 2021, 04:06:41 PM
I have two unconfirmed transactions with my Trezor wallet ( 10 and 14 days ) and one with my Wasabi Wallet ( 12 days ).  I have been trying to learn how to fix this, learned about RBF and CPFP, etc.

First, I am not sure how to tell if either wallet has or had RBF enabled.  Second, it doesn't seem like either wallet allows me to utilize CPFP ..but then again I am no-techy and honestly completely lost at this point.

I was watching an Andreas video about stuck transactions and he stated that regardless, in 14 days it will be settled whether included in a block or cancelled...is this accurate ?

Any help would be much appreciated!



This is what I get from Trezor/s website ..
"Support-Technical Issues-Unconfirmed transaction-
Unconfirmed transaction- The network might be overwhelmed and it may take quite a significant time for a new transaction to be confirmed, especially if a lower fee was set (it can be hours or even days). You just need to wait. Your transaction will be either confirmed or returned to your wallet."
4368  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you love Cardano? on: February 21, 2021, 11:56:17 PM
I used to own Cardano and I guess a part of me still has some hope for smart contract coins like Cardano and Ethereum, but I do know they are some ways away from being the game changing coins that I have such high hopes for.  I personally am looking forward to when DeFi is actually a legitimate thing, and smart contracts truly can change a large part of how the finance world works..but I know we are still some ways from the reality.  So both the legal and financial aspect is why I have some hope for this coin.
4369  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk Another Twitte for DOGE COIN on: February 21, 2021, 11:52:27 PM
One thing I am sure of when it comes to Dogecoin is that it will pump and dump for as long as people continue to give this silly cryptocurrency the time of day like the do right now.  Lets not forgot that all this attention Elon has been showing Dogecoin, is that it is all simply for fun/trolling.  He would have 1.5 billion worth of dogecoin if he thought that it was the legit crypto coin to own.

Yes I think Dogecoin will pump again to that amount, when and how? I am not so sure.
4370  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lucky Bitcoiner on: February 21, 2021, 11:49:30 PM
I think bragging about how much money you've made on anything is a pretty low life type of move. First of all no one needs to know that you even own bitcoin, once of it's greatest features is being pseudo-anonymous.. secondly bragging about what you have often leads to trouble.  It's like a sign you're holding up saying "Please rob me".
4371  Economy / Economics / Re: Global debt soars to 356% of GDP on: February 21, 2021, 11:46:58 PM
As sad as it has been seeing the national debt of the United States growing larger and larger over time, it sure has been about the best thing to happen to bitcoin that's possible.  We continue to print money as if it is a never ending source without and consequences at all, but as we all know there comes a point where enough is enough. 

The F35 being mentioned here is a big one for me..we've got to stop wasting so much on war..it's just not necessary.
4372  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / How much of Bitcoin Cash's value is due to legacy Bitcoin holders? on: February 19, 2021, 06:07:12 PM
I'm not sure if I've even phrased this question correctly, but here is what I am asking... In August 2017 Bitcoin had it's first hard fork, Bitcoin Cash.  So therefore any bitcoin you obtained before this date will contain both bitcoin and bitcoin cash ( of course many other subsequent forks ).  Now..a lot of people never split off  the bitcoin cash, and still hold it with their "legacy" bitcoin in paper wallets/hardware wallets etc.  I know personally the only reason I hold some bitcoin-cash is because I hold it within collectibles/paper wallets ( Like Casascius coins for example ), but if I could split it off without ruining the numismatic value of the coin art/paper wallet ( to redeem the coins you have to peel the hologram hiding the private keys, which in return ruins the value of the coins numismatic value), I would. 

So this begs the question, if everyone who only holds bitcoin-cash because they simply haven't split it off yet ..where would bitcoin-cash's value be at right now if they were all of a sudden to split it off/sell it off? Would this be a large percentage of bitcoin cash as a whole ?  Does this make up 5%, 10%, 20% etc.. of the bitcoin cash being held?

Hopefully I'm making sense here.  Kind of hard explaining this via text.
4373  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will bitcoin cash overtakes etherum due to its unstable price [ new ] on: February 19, 2021, 05:52:14 PM
Bitcoin cash will never take over Ethereum of Bitcoin.  First off bitcoin cash and ethereum are not in competition with each other just as bitcoin and ethereum are not.  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Cash are digital money transacting coins, where Ethereum is a smart contract coin that is meant to use and build smart contract applications.  Ethereum is on fire right now, and even though I don't believe Ethereum is even close to being able to bring to life the kind of smart contract projects that many think it is or has, I do think one day it will. 

I would personally be betting on Litecoin before I'd bet on bitcoin cash. 
4374  Economy / Economics / Re: Use of cryptocurrencies, a concern – IMF on: February 19, 2021, 05:44:36 PM
I see this as a concern to some extent.  As you mentioned, there is no way you could ever ban cryptocurrency because there will always be the OTC ( over the counter ) trading that is absolutely impossible to stop, not to mention the rise of decentralized exchanges that will surely change the game as well.

But..there are a good amount of people who still believe bitcoin is anonymous and that is bad for bitcoin.  I think coins like Monero are amazing but I have a fear that they will end up being banned by quite a bit of countries ( think about it, many countries don't allow for women to vote or show their face in public, or allow people to have freedom of religion etc.).  So while I think most countries will understand that bitcoin and monero , for example, are two very different things, but others will use the anonymity of Monero/Zcash etc as an excuse to "ban" crypto overall.
4375  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: It feels as if BINANCE is going to blow up the Bitcoin Bubble big time on: February 18, 2021, 04:37:44 PM
I read through your post here a couple times and I can't really understand what you're trying to get across here.  I don't think Binance or Binance coin has anything to do with bitcoin and YOUR perceived bitcoin bubble.  You're assuming bitcoin is in a bubble but many others are not.  What says bitcoin is a bubble, how can you prove this?
4376  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do ordinary people feel afraid of Bitcoin? on: February 18, 2021, 03:29:23 PM
I work in finance and I can tell you that "ordinary" people, or ie the masses, are afraid of investing in anything and everything for the most part.  A good chunk of people are "afraid" because they simply do not understand and they are often too lazy to do any homework for themselves so when they hear people tell them " oh watch out for this, or watch out for that" then they do.  It amazes me how many people take financial advice from their co-workers and or family members who have no financial background what so ever.
4377  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Help choosing altcoins to invest on: February 18, 2021, 03:25:33 PM
I can see you're support DeFi in your signature which is a straight up scam, and asking about a pure shitcoin, so it would seem to me you need to sit down and do a little more homework.  You want a good altcoin , a legitimate coin, look at at Monero, Litecoin and Ethereum..there really isn't much more outside of these. Focus on coins that actually matter would be my advice..like Bitcoin.   
4378  Economy / Economics / Re: Economist predicts demise of global central banks on: February 18, 2021, 03:06:48 PM
Interesting viewpoints given here.  I personally think this is a pretty much nonsense and that the Central Banks aren't going anywhere anytime soon. I also am not sure Central Banks are really all that concerned about cryptocurrencies.  As of right now cryptocurrencies are used by a very minute amount of people and that likely won't change anytime soon.
4379  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk tweet causes Dogecoin holders to dump on: February 17, 2021, 08:29:21 PM
This is exactly what I have been trying to tell all you die hard doge head fools.  Dogecoin has ABSOLUTELY NOT FUTURE.  Doge is only where it's at because of people ( like Elon Musk ) pumping it up over the years. Dogecoin has ZERO utility. 

The most important question to ask yourself before buying an altcoin is " Does this coin solve a real world problem of today? What does this coin do to make things better or easier than they already are? " ..if there answer is nothing, then there you go.  Dogecoin is the same as 1000's of other altcoins...there's nothing special about it.

While it's not the best design I've ever seen, I've certainly seen worse.  I am interested in grabbing one ( and maybe I'll get lucky and win that competition they are having on Instagram, though I highly doubt it).  Thanks for setting this up/ putting this in motion Mopar! Very helpful per usual. Cheers.
