With only 14.2m bitcoins in circulation and about 2.5 million coin users on average people will have 5.28, but of course because of risk of holding and alpha vs beta investor personalities, the every wealth will concentrate in the top 1% eventually. There is nothing wrong with that, its just how human risk management and opportunism works, so fuck wealth redistribution. However, you dont need to hold 1 bitcoin, as if the price hits 1 million $ soon, an average person can be satisfied with less too  |

I`m holding my coins for more than 1 months now, and i`m thinking about selling them, i havent seen much activity here lately, so i`m not that interested anymore in this, sorry guys  |

Not yet, today was a shitty day, but i`m thinking about new ways to earn bitcoin right now

Used to make a pizza from scratch once a week. No longer as I found yeast was causing inflamation.
What is yeast? I searched google and it only gave me "vaginal inflammation" results, i`m sure you are not talking about that?  |

Seriously who cares about the signatures anyway, let anybody do what they want with their signatures. I don't like the authoritarian view of just disabling it because 1 person doesn't like it. People need to be more tolerant between eachother, otherwise this forum can fall into tyrrany lol  |

Are these girls legal age, they look very young to me? What country are they from, it looks like S Korea, but i`m not sure? |

whole financial sector is quite stable here
Thats a mirage in the desert. The fact that they stand 2 centimeters away from the abyss ,while other countries are 1 centimeter away, brings false sense of comfort All global financial institutions, based on fiat money (which is 99.99% of them) will fall in one way or another in the upcoming 5-15 years. So either they are ignorant, or uneducated, or lazy to educate themseves, or a combination of the previous. If I were you I`d tell them to visit this site (pick your country from there) http://www.nationaldebtclocks.org/And ask them to think again Those debts are irreversible. |

This must be the biggest FUD thread of all time.
Litecoin is not dead, but it certainly needs more innovation / merchants / investors.
Those are precisely the things it doesn't seem to be getting, though. Where is the innovation supposed to come from when the developers aren't adding innovative features? Where are the merchants supposed to come from when Litecoin's sole use appears to be a speculative asset? Where are the investors supposed to come from when the coin looks like it's on life-support? Sure, the coin has had a minor spike in the last few weeks, but it still doesn't look like it has a promising future. These are the latest additions to Litecoin: What's New in version v0.10?
This is a major release of Litecoin Core, featuring the technical equivalent of Bitcoin v0.10.2 but with Litecoin specific patches. On a general level, most of what is new is is hidden where block synchronization and various internals are considerably faster and more efficient, and it has several major privacy improvements. The most significant changes include:
Watch-only wallet support. This allows the wallet to track transactions to and form wallets for which you know the address of but do not have the private key to.
Faster blockchain synchronization due to headers-first synchronization and support for downloading blocks in parallel. Downloading the blockchain is now much quicker and can be completed within a few hours instead of taking days for some users.
A REST interface which allows unauthenticated access to public node data when the -rest flag is specified.
RPC Server “Warm-Up” Mode which starts earlier than previous versions. This helps users or services relying on it know that the server has already started and will be available soon.
Improved signing security. This is due to using the libsecp256k1 library for signing instead of OpenSSL. libsecp256k1 is a cryptographic library optimized for elliptic curve uses which Litecoin relies on and was created by Bitcoin Core developer Pieter Wuille. Featuring better security, via hardening against timing leaks and derandomization, this library is believed to be better tested and more thoroughly reviewed than the implementation in OpenSSL.
New utility applications including litecoin-tx for transaction related functionality and litecoin-cli for RPC command line functionality as litecoind no longer accepts them.
Strict DER encoding for signatures (BIP 66). This introduces block version 3 and a new consensus rule which prevents non-standard transactions from being included in blocks. This also removes the dependency on OpenSSL’s signature parsing. Eventually, libsecp256k1 will be used for all consensus related tasks, depreciating the need for OpenSSL entirely.
RPC Access Changes. RPC access now supports binary network addresses. This means that you can specify a single IP address, a CIDR network address or a netmask for accessing the RPC service. Please note, wildcard string matching no longer works and will display an error in the debug.log file when you attempt to use use a wildcard string in the rpcallowip= variable, either as a config setting or launch parameter.
The major user-visible features that were new in Bitcoin v0.9 and v0.10 are not actually new for Litecoin v0.10 because we backported it to Litecoin v0.8 (like Coin Control).
What’s New in version v0.10.2.2?
Litecoin v0.10.2.2 is a minor release from the previous release candidate, featuring improvements and bug fixes. The changes can be seen below:
Added option -alerts’ to opt out of the network alert system. Please note that disabling network alerts should only be used by power users as this system is used for network emergencies and important security releases. The default behavior is that network alerts are enabled.
Detect and reject LibreSSL. This prevents a non-approved SSL library being used for compiling Litecoin Core, preventing potential consensus compatibility issues.
Improved getbalance RPC functionality to allow the user to display zero confirmation transactions (this works with watch-only addresses as well).
PID file bug fix for non-Windows based systems.
Bug fix for signing and verifying messages.
Wow. Exciting stuff. Clearly setting the world alight there. Now lets look at the search results for Litecoin in the news: https://www.google.com/search?q=litecoin&tbm=nwsThat's right, endless pages of "price analysis" because no one actually gives a shit about the coin itself, just how much they can sell it for. Again, speculative asset, nothing more. LTC could be doing so much but just sits there waiting for people to notice it still exists. Add support for Automated Transactions and Turing complete smart contracts. This would also allow LTC to be traded with any other coin supporting AT without using a centralised exchange. There's something Bitcoin can't do, decentralised blockchain-to-blockchain trading. Now that would be innovation. Hell, just pick any feature at random from another coin and add it to Litecoin, just to make it look like someone's still doing something to drag this comatose sack back from the dead. Litecoin is Bitcoin's little brother, and it hasnt grown up yet. I`m sure the Litecoin devs are very lazy, i mean litecoin has been around since bitcoin, and both were similar price at a time, but now bitcoin has far surpassed Litecoin. Devs only added watch only support lately? Yep that sucks, that should have been done years ago. I think Litecoin wont die, because many fans still use it, but until it hits a critical mass, no business will use it, although its definitely a good speculative instrument. Look at the analogy, suppose Bitcoin is gold and Litecoin is copper. Now it's obvious that people use gold more than copper, but that doesnt mean copper will just cease to exist, it will lurk around and continue to exist in a more hidden and obscure way, but it will still be here. Same can be said about Litecoin. |

If the loan section here is a valid suggestion I guess that could work for you too
Its not because i specifically asked for an investment website. Gosh man, read the OP atleast before responding to a thread. The loan business requires too much micromanagement, which i have no time for unfortunately. The trading business is anyway more profitable than loaning, and less time consuming. However I just want a lean back & profit type of site. Although there is no guarantee in any bitcoin investment of not being scammed but there are few famous ones which have been running from long time and i believe reasonable: Satoshidice: https://www.satoshidice.com/Safedice: https://safedice.com/Moneypot: https://www.moneypot.com/If i were at your Place i would keep the coins with me as there is always a danger of loosing coins as one think of investing , moreover you can buy a forum account with that 0.1 BTC and let the account grow in rank and sell it after it is at good potential for reasonable BTC. The casino investment suggestions are appreciated and good, thanks guys, i`ll look into that. But the thread doesnt end here, any new suggestion is still welcome, so keep them coming |

I think those who dont want to know about bitcoin will later regret it, i mean there are plenty of ignorant people out there. Not everyone is opportunist / alpha-investor / sane person , most people are just lazy, non-caring and they dont give a damn about what happens out in the big world. Sometimes they look into new things only after all their friends tried it out, and the social pressure is too big that they need to adopt it. I know this because i`m am like this in many fields, but not when it comes to money. When it's about money, i`m between the first people in the line. I just guess society breaks down between alpha and beta personalities, and not everyone can be first 
>> RELATING TO THE TOPIC: Well i`ve told all my family and friends about bitcoin and nobody was interested. I had good intentions so that in case they were unlucky and didnt heard of it before, so that they can hear about it now. But no response, well i guess more opportunity for me then. I wont be harassing them with bitcoin, if they dont want it, bad luck, more opportunity for the rest of us |

This is an example of password people should use (don't use this example) JhXb3gDtr8sDBhSmN3Pe5qwKMT3D4DgAqrYEZ8Ngqh5hW97cQEmrKuV3D(57 character, cryptographically secure, totally random, impossible to guess & bruteforce)
dang you are paranoid.
but i would disagree that dice rolls aren't reliable. I think any bias you could find would be far too small to exploit.
It's called precaution, sure i have less than 15 bitcoins now in my posession, which arent worth alot to go through all the hassle to steal it compared to the security i put in, but one day that 1 bitcoin can be worth 1 million dollar, and then its another story. I`m thinking ahead in the future. I just remember some idiot had 1000 bitcoins in the blockchain.info account and he got hacked and lost it all. There is a saying: "A fool and his money are soon parted.And it's true." |

Did you roll your own entropy with physical dice too?
No because dice rolls are not reliable source of generating random numbers as the texture that is generated on can lower the cryptographic security of it. But what I did was to compile random text from 3 different sources , and merged them together in a random but discretionary way and that generated my master private key. |

I suggest you to immediately change your password, and never ever use it in any public site/forum or search engine!
Dude, thank you for all your effort first of all, but... can you tell me how my search can be directly linked to me? Also, my provider still groups many users under one IP, so I think I shouldn't be so easy to trace. And last but not least, where should my IP be published? you always think these ways of getting hacked are unlikely until they actually happen. I think the bottom line is to never type your cold storage Bitcoin password on a live computer. A much simpler case is that you have a keylogger that is sending all your information to a hacker who can later use it. Oh i`m very tinfoil hat when it comes to cold storage I took out everything from my offline PC, left with only a cd reader ,motherboard, and ram, and a keyboard with wires. Wireless stuff are insecure. The operating system is booted from CD, and and data storage is on a double encrypted USB stick. All other connections are disabled from BIOS and sealed with tinfoil to not leak password through radio/infrared signals. http://www.wired.com/2014/11/airhopper-hack/ |

Also, my provider still groups many users under one IP, so I think I shouldn't be so easy to trace. And last but not least, where should my IP be published? If you have static IP then its horrible, because once anybody gets a hold of that they can track you every website you visit, if they obtain the websites logs. If its dynamic it adds a little bit more security. Every website you visit knows your IP address because everytime a connection is made to another site, your IP is revealed. Every instant messaging software reveals your IP. So any stranger you have skyped with, yahoo messengered with, or any other instant messenger you used to talk with strangers can have you IP. Also if a hacker puts a tracking cookie on your PC (which many advertising sites already do, but a hacker with malicious desires i mean), he can track every site you visit. Also trojans, and keyloggers are the other part, when if you get a virus that logs everything and sends it to the hacker, he can log your entire internet activity, from every mouse movement to every keystroke. Yes privacy is very shallow on the internet, you must take extra precautions if you dont want your sensitive data to be revealed. |

I get that 99% of people aren't able to generate a good sentence to remember, but I still don't like being given the chance to use my favourite sentence.
It's nothing I've found on internet, I searched for it and there's NO MATCHES on internet, and it's a sentence of 16 WORDS, that could also include punctuation.
Having to fiddle with hex is not fun for a non-coder and may also lead to problems in future updates I guess so I won't go that direction.
But in example, to not get bored with that sequence of words, I just snapshot it and send it to my email, which has a password of only 10+ characters... is that really better?
And I guess many people are doing it like that.
Printing those words on paper? And if somebody stumble on that paper?
Remembering 12 words without any sense? Good luck with that: nobody will even try. I didn't, for sure.
OMG you typed into google? Are you serious? Did you e-mailed it to your other e-mail? Man you must be the most uneducated person in internet security ever. You totally compromized your password and it's only a matter of time before you get robbed. If you can't memorize 12 words then fucking carve it into a tree in a forest somewhere, to make sure nobody stumbles on that paper. Man you need to keep your sensitive data more secure, because the thieves always love newbies who cannot secure their sensitive info. I typed only the initial part of my sentence, just to see if it would have found any reference. Still not recommended, especially if you do it from you own IP, because it can link back to you, and a clever hacker could use it if he ever breaks into your PC. For example if your sentence is this: "My baby is feeded 3 cups of milk/day, and he giggles."Then obviously this sentence might occur in some pregnant women forum somewhere in the obscure part of the internet, and google could find it, but if it has no link back to you then the odds of somebody taking a sentence from the obscure part of the web and linking it back directly to your bank account password or bitcoin password is very very unlinkely. But if you per-se write it into google, then it is directly linked to you, and as i told above, a hacker can use any snippet of info to guess/bruteforce your PC and the sensitive stuff you might keep there. Even if you wrote half of the sentence, that means that now your sentence is only half strong as it was before because half of it is compromized... I suggest you to immediately change your password, and never ever use it in any public site/forum or search engine! |
