I got this setting: http://prntscr.com/hsnxsr

Is it wrong?
I have bad experience with dynamic fees ( most time offering too high ... exactly your case). You should turn it off (before sending tx check bitcoinfees.earn.com for actual fee size and adjust accordingly)

A damnit. How come Electrum doesn't display this correctly? It said 20 dollar fee when I did "PREVIEW". And it turned out to be 662....

Understood. It's pretty annoying situation and there is nothing you can do now.
But this sound weird. With electrum i never had such issue.

Are you sure you didn't checked the "fee per byte"? ( I was confused with this as well)

Hi,
the yellow marked is your change address ( unusued coins returned to your wallet ... but new addy).
And you have paid a very huge fee .. 0.05 BTC. That was unnecessary ( even now when blockchain is full).

Paid fee you can see above the inputs list (in your screen shot)

The only positive is your tx had been confirmed pretty quick.

I do not believe in this project. It seems to me that this coin will not last long. Most likely in a few months everyone will forget about its existence. This project is designed to ensure that its developers have earned money

Again who cares if you don't believe in it. Apparently coinbase does because they are about to add BTG  Wink

Same applies to you. Who cares you don't care?
You expect only BTG glorifying posts here? Cmon, this is public forum where anyone can share his opinion.

Few sites to add: kraken, localbitcoins ( I have good experience with both) and coinmate
Have you used Kraken in last 2 weeks? It is kind of unusable. LocalBitcoins is great place, but it is peer to peer  marketplace, not classic exchange so i didnt mention it here.

OK, to me OP indicated your aim to inform about ways to purchase BTC ... which localbitcoins is.
Kraken is very slow last few weeks that's true, but still a trustworthy exchange worth mentioning.
446  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-12-14] United Bitcoin Hard Fork Aims to Steal Inactive Wallet Balances on: December 25, 2017, 10:14:27 PM
This is a total scam.

A fork is fine, but give the people the fork.

What is easily passed in the roadmap is that they give out coins that are active after November 1st.

So, if you bought your bitcoins 2 months ago - You get nothing.

So, 16.75 Million coins distributed, but if you haven't used any in the last 1.5 months, you get nothing.  THEY get them.

So, one for you and xxx,xxx for them.
another one for you and xxx,xxx for them.

I still can't believe that they expect anyone that purchased their coins as an investment over 2 months ago get nothing.

This is basically a scam, a pre-mine, and de-anonymization of bitcoin.  It's not a fork when they get 16.5 million out of the 16.75 in existence.

You got the point there. I, myself, haven't use any Bitcoin (I meant about sending out any transaction to other people/merchants, but still receive some satoshi monthly into my blockhain's account) I got nothing from the fork, while the team got all the benefit from it...

All these hard forking are totally not my cup of tea  Sad

I'm also against this never ending hard forking ... it's basicaly free money for BTC holders (not complaining about this)  but it also makes things complicated for newcomers. Not mentioning many users lost their coins because claiming forks using wro wallets.

About "stealing inactive balance". WTF? Is this true? Seems to me devs are trying to force users to constantly move the coins (so few high volume miners can have assured income) .. again WTF? This can't be true .. it's pure robbery.
Guess I have to read the paper about united ( was not interested yet) but now I'm curious how they explain such fraud.

You hardly find a way to buy BTC with paypal.
CC is convenient way ... but in most cases you have to go for verification (upload ID ...).
Try to find some BTC ATM nearby or use localbitcoins to find trader ( and buy via bank transfer).

Based on this list - https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@btcmillionaire/bitcoin-casino-investments-15-week-14-of-52

It looks like investing in casino ico not good because both BetKing and BitDice investments lost a lot of money. Betking is about 60% and Bitdice around 30% in less than 4 months time. Other bankroll investments have given around 5% profit in 14 weeks which is quite less for the risk investors are taking.

The above mentioned is misleading. e.g.  bitdice did not lost money ... he apparently bought CSNO tokens with BTC and compares with the total USD value at current price.
Actually CSNO doubled it's USD value since the beginning ... check https://ethplorer.io/address/0x29d75277ac7f0335b2165d0895e8725cbf658d73 

The problem is ANYTHING you bought using BTC few months ago is now a big loss for you !

His comparison is in BTC only not in USD. Because he spent money in BTC and expected profits in BTC, not in USD.

I do agree that BTC went up a lot in last few months so but for him it is still a loss so his report is correct. Just imagine if don't invest in that token then he would have made even more profits in terms of USD and that is what he is trying to say in his report.



Well, to me the bitdice report reflects his lost from not hodling those BTCs.
If he expects to be in BTC profit then he misunderstood the ICO conditions. Investors will be paid in ETH and with growing BTC price he'll most likely never reach any significant profit. But who knows.
The overview is relevant for regular bankroll investments (where you are paid in BTCs) but not for ICOs where funds were converted to fiat (when the ICO finished) and payouts will be in ETH.

Just saying the ICO investments (bitdice, betking) in same table with bankroll casinos is mixing apples with oranges.

Hello guys! I do have .03 BTC in my blockchain wallet! Can someone guide me how to claim this BTG? Thanks! Cool

Do you have android device and your address does not begin with 3?
Then:
1 - move your coins to another address.
2 - let your blockchain wallet show you qr code of the private key (find guide how to)
3 - use coinomi to scan qr code (sweep that key )

I think I'm going to give up on investing in casino bankroll
It always turn negative Sad

Currently around 0.02BTC negative, same a couple of weeks ago (different casinos profitable, different casinos unprofitable)..
I've started aftering following btcmillionaire and after I've seen his 1%/week average, I hoped for a 3%/month profit
But hell no.
Seems like I'm losing each and every fucking time  Cry
Except for Crypto-Games, they haven't been negative on me yet.
Investing in casino is I think a long term activity, we have to understand that casino always win in the long run
so we should not count the results early. If I remember it right, we have a thread here where OP experiment investing in casino
and in overall he is profitable, that is because he diversified his investment.
This is the correct way to think about it. Short term variance can cause you to lose money but the odds still play in your favor.

There is no guaranty that all casino bankroll investments will give profits in the long run.

Of course there is no guarantee. But over a long period of time, the odds are on your favor.

Investing money is like gambling , it's either you earn a lot or loss all the profit. However we need to trust and be confident in your decisions to earn more. The more you invest the more you have the chance to earn a lot. In addition try to research first what are the things to remember and background check is necessary.

Investing money incurs risk like gambling, but when you invest the odds are in your favor. There's a big difference.

How can invest can be in our favor? We can't control this thing right, there is always player that control it, like big whale when they win big and run away with a lot of cash and others that play slowly get their money back. There is so many kinds of players right there so how can this be profitable to us?
The expected value is in your favor. Over long periods of time, you're expected to make money because the odds are skewed towards the house, and you're on the side of the house.

Yes, all players are in disadvantage (from mathematical point of view) but true is the luck plays significant role as well.
Nevertheless from the long term view the investors are on the profiting side.

BTW you can control this thing by closing active invests. Notice some player is constantly winning? so close them before he gets more lucky (or adjust kelly accordingly) ... but from my experience it's not the best tactics .... IMO most of winners are just temporary ... sooner or later the greed overhelms, they try to win more and lose everything ... thats what gambling is all about)
453  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITDICE - 🎲🎲🎲 TRANSFORMATION HAS BEGUN! CSNO TOKENS ADDED! 🎰🎰🎰 on: December 14, 2017, 04:01:38 AM
I'm really interested in buying a token to be a shareholder. However, I don't have any particular idea how this thing works. Does each token be equal to 1 share? Also, when will be the dividends spread out? Will it take months or a year? I do apologize for a lot of questions. I know there is a post or thread regarding this, but I'm too lazy to browse. I hope you guys will understand.

I just like the idea of a token being a symbol of shares, not only you will gain profits from the company that you bought it from as long you are holding onto it, you'll also gain from the token value as CSNO token price is almost @ .50 cents

Visit the ICO page https://ico.bitdice.me/en for more details
AFAIK dividends will be paid quarterly (starting next year)

Jesus christ, I wish i had the insight to look into bitcoin 5 years ago. Atleast i am in it now. Assuming everyone has held, They are doing REALLY WELL haha.

back then I thought I was late

Very same ... there is always going to be someone later than you  Grin
Back to topic, I actually think one day the OPs deal may come true.

BTW someone is selling Mclaren spider ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2522221.0 )
455  Economy / Gambling / Re: BITDICE - 🎲🎲🎲 TRANSFORMATION HAS BEGUN! CSNO TOKENS ADDED! 🎰🎰🎰 on: December 12, 2017, 02:32:41 AM
if u just buy tokens before the profit share does that count?? And... just hold them in MEW?
Alex will probably take a snapshot(i've seen this done with other profit sharing token) of users holding csno tokens and distribute profits according to the amount held by a person. if you buy csno before snapshot you'll receive the profit share if not then you won't. alex can you clear this out?

There is no need to make snapshots ... that's what smart contract takes care of.
Or do I misunderstand something?

its the first time ive heard about BITCOIN GOLD. how does it work>?

like bitcoin

yes, but don't get fooled by the second word ... has no relevance at all.

BTW search for "bitcoin forks" to learn more
Well, don't get fooled by the first word either. The only reason this has the value it has is due to its legacy of 'Bitcoin', not because the coin is the most innovative project out there or anything.

That's a valid point, accepted. But in BTG case I consider the second word extremely misleading. And not talking only about value but how entire story began ( premine, last minute replay protection development, published fake wallets, compromised client ... what an amateur hour ).
This should we call a GOLD ?? ... better rename it to GLOD ( translator says it's romanian world for "mud" .. that kinda fits )

No. If you send your bitcoins to anyone you lose them. He becomes the owner of those bitcoins.
No, If you sent bitcoins out the bitcoin diamonds (and other forks) will stay on the original address ( but if you give him your privatekey then he can get all the coins on that wallet BTC, BTG , BCH... all of them)

To sum up. PRIVATEKEY IS THE KEY TO YOUR COINS (all of them) ... so when privatekey is not compromised, you are safe.

Thanks with the information and please I have a question, what is bitcoin diamond?

Useless thing. It's another BTC fork (same as bitcoin cash and bitcoin gold) ... search for more.

Some guy made a Crypto Christmas Tree using a whole bunch of Moonlander 2 USB miners

https://youtu.be/Et3jgHnTjZ8



hahah that is brilliant...nice find.

Yea, I like it also. I want such tree as well. But given the number of MLDs it's pretty expensive tree.


Is someone here willing to help out this new set up his new moonlander stick?

Read the OP and come back with specific questions/issues.


Did anyone change the fans or modded them somehow? I have 4 of them running, and they are really loud and vibrating. I checked the screws, but it didn't change much.
I am thinking of replacing the fans with "silent fans" or maybe add some rubber washers to the stock ones. I also thought about removing them completely and put a 120mm fan next to the 4 to cool them down.

Are you Moonlanders also running quite loud? Any setup advices?
I have same issue with one of them. But I place the stick behind window so the noise is not issue anymore (just hope the fan won't die)
