Any update on todays profit list? Here is my chart: Turned 0.15 into 1btc.  "Turned 0.15 into 1btc" ? Profit on the chart shows above 2.5, and checked on site just now and it's nearly 3 (2.94170368). Very well done. If I were you, I'd probably withdraw at least 0.2, so whatever happens next (big losing streak), you'd have the mental comfort of being in profit anyway. But that's just me. |

Some big news regarding the BIT-X Bitcoin debit card is approaching! Stay tuned  . Will there be one for European customers, with the 'chip' (square thing above the number)? Something like this: |

My experience of Purse.io is that the Bitcoin buyers are scammers (3 purchases 1 scam) and that the customer services won't be helpful to look out for you if you are in a bad situation due to scammers on their site.
How did you got scammed actually? Do they provide escrow? Were you a buyer (exchanged your BTC for amazon stuff)? I ordered something, paid with Bitcoin, the buyer bought it and it was delivered, but then they claimed it hadn't been delivered and got a refund leaving the company out of pocket. The company then got in touch with me to say that they will have to contact the authorities as I haven't paid for the item that arrived. Purse say that I shouldn't worry though, so it's ok. I'll say tell that to the judge when I'm in court. So you didn't get scammed, the company did. I'd also say you got nothing to worry about, just tell them the whole story. They fucked up by giving the guy a refund. Why would they do that if the item has been delivered at the address provided by buyer and I assume it was signed for upon delivery. They won't start any legal action (unless it's a small seller and it was high purchase), although they should, but they should be chasing the scammer not yourself. |

If the 35% discount was guaranteed, you'd be making a good deal even if you're scammed 1 time every 3 purchases. How did you got scammed actually? Do they provide escrow? Were you a buyer (exchanged your BTC for amazon stuff)? I'd rather pay 35% more. Anyway, everyone can buy Bitcoin easily nowadays, why would people buy them at a 35% premium? Because they are scammers..
You're probably right on this one, but there's also plenty of people with unwanted amazon vouchers/gift cards. I had a few (small value) not too long ago and was thinking of selling them even at 60% face value (those were for amazon UK though, so harder to sell). But eventually I found something on amazon that I needed. |

Do you know any UK (or EU) based on-line shops that directly accept bitcoins and are not limited to electronics/games etc?
I know there are businesses like cex, scan.co.uk, overclockers etc but all of them are limited to computer accessories and I'm looking for a place(s) that sell general goods (ie household, sport supplements etc).
If you know any, please share (but don't post links to untrusted sites created overnight)

I requested invitation on July 2014, received invitation in January 2015. Expect some delay when requesting it.
wo, half an year of waiting! They must severely be short of fund to expand their capacity quickly. I wonder what is the source of their revenue, otherwise how can they survive! Actually I got an invite in like a month or even less. It really depends, I'm not sure on which factors. Luck? I'm just going to recommend them. Everyone should sign up with it and use as primary email or at least secondary. Safety and privacy comes first in times like these. Didn't they send out all invites in January 2015? I got mine on then too. In such case, the waiting time depended on when did you request invite. |

Describe please how a decentralized ledger without a native token incentivizes participation?
Sure, participation (of miners) could be funded by outside capital, but then the question becomes, how to distribute it? How to see which outside actor has which share of the funding? Such a system sounds a lot like political party funding in the US, and I would describe that as 'partisan' and 'toxic' long before I would use the term 'decentralized'.
...
The function of native tokens is not just to incentivise miners, but also to prevent spamming blockchain with infinite-loop transactions/contracts (afaik). |

I lost 2 btc earlier this morning, and then with .2 more deposit, i recovered my 2 btc loss, and another 0.2 bonus ... PROFIT: 23.4959
WAGERED: 3543.5364
ratio for house edge so far is: 0.663063599% right now if anyone is wondering why it's not at exactly 0.5% it's because for bets that you are trying to win more than 0.5 btc, your house edge may increase to an level >0.5% and we had quite a few of those gamblers trying to win 1 btc or more in a single bet (thus raising their own house edge, and the overall ratio here* not exactly) Congrats on your recovery 1gal! As for the ratios, profit should theoretically average at ~0.5% in the long term, but it can easily stay lower/higher for months or even years. In other words, if it's higher than expected that doesn't mean it will go down anytime soon. |

Winklevoss Twins: Bitcoin Will “Wipe Out” Cash By 2025http://www.valuewalk.com/2015/03/winklevoss-bitcoin-prediction/In today’s not the onion….. Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss have predicted that we will be living in a “cashless society” in ten years, by which time Bitcoin will have asserted its supremacy. The former Olympic rowers are most famous for their legal battle with ex-Harvard classmate Mark Zuckerberg over who really owns Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB), but their new project aims to popularize Bitcoin, writes James Covert for the New York Post.
Bold predictions for success of Bitcoin
The twins believe that bitcoin will effectively end the use of cash, credit cards and other services such as PayPal. “Cash is going to be killed,” Tyler Winklevoss told the crowd at SXSW Interactive. “It will be nostalgia … You’ll tell your grandkids about the wallet, it was this thing made of leather.” Too optimistic? ps didn't know Winklevoss twins are former Olympic rowers... you learn something new everyday

Bitcoin's tech could be used to prevent digital gift card fraudhttp://www.engadget.com/2015/03/17/gyft-bitcoin/Bitcoin may linger on the fringes of the mainstream, but plenty of companies are casting envious eyes towards the technology that underpins it. Just days after IBM announced a plan to use the blockchain as the basis for its own payments platform, Gyft has said that it's doing the same. The digital gift card company has revealed that it's looking into ways to "tokenize" gift cards and issue them on the blockchain for better theft protection. CEO Vinny Lingham has admitted that the company is a long way away from having a working prototype, but it's clear that Bitcoin isn't going anywhere. ^^ that's the entire article More details on Gyft's plans: http://www.coindesk.com/gyft-to-embrace-radical-blockchain-concept-in-gift-card-fraud-fight/

(please move this question if needed)
It probably belongs to altcoins board: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0You can move it yourself (button in the bottom left corner) Hi All,
I'm new to the altcoin world and I've been able to acquire some of the various popular altcoins. I'm a little bit up the learning curve. I've recently become aware that Ethereum had a presale and also Gems had a presale. Is there a place that lists all the upcoming presales involving bitcoin and altcoints and related? Thanks,
Advait
I'm not aware of any such place. Interesting pre-sales (non-scam coins) are very rare. Just follow the news (CoinDesk etc). If there's anything worthwhile on the horizon it will get some coverage. |

maybe i don't know somethings but isn't the World Bitcoin Association a not-profit organization which only accepts donations. i do not understand how it can go bankrupt!
It's the first time I ever heard about WBA and I've no idea about their structure and legal status. But every form of operations comes with some related costs. If the donations they've received were smaller than their costs (staff salaries, phone/electric bills, office rent etc) then they become insolvent and filed for bankruptcy. |

The 20% extra credit for using bitcoin - is it only a time limited promotion?
I thinks its a testing phase and not a promo. That is not the same thing right? From what I heard, T-mobile is testing Bitcoin as a payment option for 3 months. According to inpay blog (they are processing btc payments for t-mobile) the 20% offer is set for 3 months, not necessarily accepting bitcoin itself. Link (in Polish): https://inpay.pl/blog/doladowania-bitcoin-w-t-mobile/ |

bitcoin pioneer? are we all pioneers at this point or did this guy do something other than scam bitcoiners Im not aware of?
I have a strong feeling you confused him with Josh Garza (paycoin/gaw miners). |

As the others mentioned, the last (fraction of) bitcoin will be mined ~2140 Check the schedule: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Controlled_supplyNote that block reward will become insignificant much sooner than that. Around 2032 it will fall to below 1 btc/block (from 1.5625 to 0.78125). And there will be no 21,000,000 but 20999999.9769 |

I would sell all my Bitcoins if a fatal flaw is discovered in the private key generation which makes it possible to generate them. As in that case Bitcoin will be worthless so anything I can get will be a bonus.
That's popular thinking, it was my first thought too, but if that happens bitcoin price would crash immediately. I probably wouldn't bother to sell my stash for a few bucks or even cents. I would sell all of my Bitcoins if there's a huge huge huge bubble and its pop is evident. It's incredible how you don't see the top of a bubble when you're in the middle of it!
I'd probably do the same, but with intention to buy (more) back at low, so not sure does it count. |

After spending about three minutes and 40 seconds running, Madad directed us to the app — displayed on Nicol’s iPhone — to see how much he’d made. In three minutes and 40 seconds, he’d amassed about 5 cents. That's sweet. For 1 hour of cardio you could get $4.5. Too good to be true? Probably so: Those measly 5 cents, of course, come from a stash of Bitcoin that Chaotic Moon Studios bought to test the Fitcoin app internally. The studio’s team had just three months to develop the concept — partially inspired by an episode of Black Mirror — and it’s still only being tested by members of the team.
Ultimately, Chad Derbyshire, director of marketing at Chaotic Moon Studios, hopes that Fitcoin will be used to form its own breed of cryptocurrency — a type of online money that has allowed for such offshoots as Coinye (formerly known as Coinye West) and Dogecoin. He imagines that individual companies could award dedicated athletes with their own digital money, based on their fitness achievements. So they aim to create yet another altcoin? Meh |

Secure Messaging App Wiper Adds Bitcoin Support, Gets Yanked In Chinahttp://techcrunch.com/2015/03/15/secure-messaging-app-wiper-adds-bitcoin-support-gets-yanked-in-china/Wiper, a chat application designed to provide users with control over their sent and received messages, recently rolled out support for bitcoin transactions between its users. The tool is simple, allowing individuals to send cryptocurrency to others inside the app’s main chat interface.
When the company first rolled out bitcoin integration, I tested it and found it a competent way to share bitcoin.
But CEO Manlio Carrelli told TechCrunch that Wiper was “removed from the iOS App Store in China due to violating that app store’s policies,” and that “Apple [had] explained to [the company] by phone that this violation was related to Wiper enabling bitcoin payments.”
Wiper has seen quick growth in recent months. According to the company’s own metrics, the app has received 8 million downloads in the last 90 days. A download does not a monthly active user make, but the uptake among users makes it ban more interesting. Last summer, Wiper raised $2.5 million.

To jest chore... Dobrze ze sie chlopak odwoluje i nie przyjal mandatu. Niech mu teraz udowodnia ze ruletka byla dzialajaca i uzywana do gier hazardowych a nie np na bezwartosciowe zetony itp. Idac tym tropem moga wystawiac mandaty za posiadanie kostki do gry w monopol czy kart do pasjansa. Poziom absurdu osiaga szczyt. Czas na zmiany... |
