461  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bittrex, Poloniex, YoBit, Kraken, WEX... Which exchange would you recommend? on: October 15, 2017, 03:28:50 AM
Where do you live? How much do you plan to purchase/sell and how often? Is it only bitcoins or also alts? It's impossible to recommend something when we know nothing about what you want.

Create a paper wallet on a Linux Live Cd and from there you'll be very secure. The next thing you should do is create 2 or 3 backups and store them in a safe, safety deposit box or somewhere far away. Always encrypt with something you can remember. If you forget , your funds are gone. It's a good idea to keep a backup of this as well.
463  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: step-by-step to manage the fork on: October 15, 2017, 03:24:14 AM
If you want to take the least risk and avoid mistakes you could always just hold bitcoin gold and bitcoins just the way you always have before. If you think one chain will die or do worse, sell that coin.
464  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Bitcoin Transaction Fee Question on: October 15, 2017, 03:22:30 AM
If you send a low fee it could get confirmed, assuming at some point the mempool is pretty much cleared.

You could technically send a transaction, that would state you are trying to double spend the bitcoins. So technically no you can't actually spend it without confirmations.

Yes it would be returned assuming you or someone else doesn't rebroadcast the transaction.
465  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: where to keep my BTC on sideline during fork, other than fiat on: October 15, 2017, 03:19:37 AM
Why do you even want to do this? Lol sounds like a bad idea. You know the bitcoin gold fork is a joke right? It has no support.

Tether is fine for this, but really all you're doing at that point is being into an always inflating currency.
466  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Kenneth Rogoff, former IMF economist says "Bitcoin price will collapse" on: October 15, 2017, 03:14:44 AM
No one cares. Someone out there will say it'll be 50k each in 2020, and others will say it'll collapse. The best part of this is that none of them have anything behind their predictions at all, and even if they did they're the exact opposite so obviously one is wrong. It's the ones thinking bitcoin will go down in price that will get blindsided.
467  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When do YOU sell? on: October 15, 2017, 03:12:37 AM
Only at all time highs but I try to never sell. It's best to keep your stash growing so that the fiat value can grow exponentially each year.
468  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can cryptocurrency make real money disappear? on: October 15, 2017, 03:09:10 AM
Cryptocurrency is the only real money in the world. Can cryptocurrency make cryptocurrency disappear? No because that makes no sense.

Can cryptocurrencies make fiat disappear? Not in the entire world. Certain countries or people will not accept it for a long time, but this will be to the advantage of everyone using bitcoins or whatever popular cryptocurrency is around in the future.
469  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin for legal services? A Nordic law firm says yes. on: October 15, 2017, 03:00:43 AM
So one indvidual firm in Finland has said that they'll be taking Bitcoin. Do some of you people actually consider this to be news? It isn't. This is a law firm which is just trying to get some free publicity from Bitcoin and it's probably going to work for a couple of weeks but after that it's not going to mean shit.

Gosh if you find tons of law firms doing this in countries that have big financial institutions then it's news. THATS NEWS OK?

Any new business accepting bitcoin is a win. It's not about massive retailers accenting it, it's about more and more people and businesses accepting it every day. You won't always get your Amazon and wal-marts accepting bitcoin, but this is a great start.
470  Economy / Economics / Re: New rich people thanks to BTC on: October 15, 2017, 02:57:51 AM
But the problem is, who is investing 100k into a new technology? The rich. So the rich get richer. I know it's inevitable, but honestly it's true.
471  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: You guys know it's worth 70 Trillion right? on: October 14, 2017, 03:39:40 AM
Once we start seeing major financial institutions investing major dollars and once we see dollars start decaying away like rotting flesh we'll see trillions no problem. But the problem will be that this isn't a good measure of how much a bitcoin is worth because the dollars will be utterly worthless.
472  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-10-12]Ultra-Rich Investor Trace Mayer Predicts Bitcoin Price Will Reach $2 on: October 13, 2017, 03:11:05 AM
Blah blah blah, some guy rolled some dice and he came up with $12,345 a piece by X date. Woop dee doo. Can he also back this up with past predictions that actually panned out? Not just "bitcoin will go up" but real good analysis? I didn't think so.

Let the bull run take it's natural course. No need to insult people's intelligence.
473  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China May Reverse Bitcoin Band on: October 13, 2017, 02:58:19 AM
 Is there really a market in earth that isn't manipulated? Of course that dump was a manipulation. What can you do? It's a real free market and anything goes around these parts.
474  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin surpasses $5,000 and Jamie Dimon hands up on: October 13, 2017, 02:55:13 AM
Of course Jamie Dimon looks dumb right now. I think he will ultimately be proven correct about bitcoin being in a bubble, but perhaps not for many years from now with bitcoin multiples higher than what it is today. Eventually people like Jamie Dimon will turn atound on cryptocurrencies. Look how Mark Cuban flipped this year.

Lol they always want to be the one who called it, but the problem is we're just at the beggining of a parabolic curve. There's no chance of this stopping anytime soon. Keep hitting each ATH after ATH and prove these ignoramuses wrong.
475  Economy / Speculation / Re: $6000 comming through on: October 13, 2017, 02:52:42 AM
Wow! I haven't seen a tally like this in a long time. The FOMO has hit people hard, and they want in before five digits. I remember when we were testing out the waters near the old $1300 ATH and then we rocketed past that no problem. Bitcoins are up 800% since this time last year (in Canadian Dollars anyway).
476  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will n00bs fail to sell top bcz they want SegWit2x & Gold airdrops? on: October 13, 2017, 02:47:31 AM
Lol if you don't know bitcoin good will just be a tiny tiny fraction of the price of a real bitcoin you haven't done any research at all. That being said, newbies don't have a freaking clue what's actually going on or how any of this works so yes, I'm sure this FOMO is coming from a lack of education on HF. They see that BCH seems to have been free money so they want that same thing.
477  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Signature Campaigns: New Rule Suggestion on: October 08, 2017, 03:23:59 AM
Why would getting an answer back within 24h ever change anything for the better? Why did you waste your time mashing so many keys for such a useless suggestion?

This will not be implemented in any campaign. No one cares.
478  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: Can we Force newbie's to use Escrow or delete the thread??? on: October 08, 2017, 03:21:50 AM
Idk, who cares? Newbies are free to ask for anything just like any other user. It doesn't mean they or anyone else should get a deal without escrow, but if they do it's just the other person's stupidity. Bitcointalk has made it very clear that they won't ban people because they scam etc.
479  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Exchanges Coinbase, Bitfinex Issue Guidance Before SegWit2X Hard Fork on: October 08, 2017, 03:20:05 AM
Just hold your bitcoins in your own wallet. Why the hell would you ever do anything other than that? You hope an exchange gives you the other coins you would be owed hut in the end they don't have to give them to you if they choose not to. Just withdraw now ffs. This can't be the whole bitcoin cash debacle again.
480  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin being a top currency on: October 08, 2017, 03:18:05 AM
Lol no one actually spends physical bitcoin in the way you spend a physical dollar. They exist only for either nostalgia or novelty purposes. If you accepted them it would be impossible because the coin makers make small batches and they're all so different.
