It is already being accepted my thousands of companies and markets all over the world and since you mention the title as 'installment', it gets harder for an entity to process periodic payments through Bitcoin as the buyer does not disclose any of his personal information in the process in most cases. Then it would be the company's headache to send debt collectors behind that person and it would be a big mess.

Will be updating signature, avatar and personal message tomorrow, thank you.

What happened to you right there was a perfect example of a 'panic sell' case wherein you feared of going deeper in loss rather than believing that Bitcoin would rebound back and this is a consequence of your own decisions. Bitcoin is known to have made a strong come back everytime it has dipped by a significant amount so you just need to judge by having an eye on Bitcoin's price often to make sure you're making maximum profit at your sell.

When I first heard about cryptocurrency I could infer that it would be based on some kind of cryptographic algorithm to create a currency system but it took me a while to realise that it would be online and on the blockchain. Utilizing SHA-256 to encrypt every transaction and it foolproof by a verification system based on hashing power was just one step into the future that this system successfully brought into light.

House edge is essentially the factor keeping all the casinos afloat by having an edge over the players. With any promises of the house edge being 0%, it feels like there would still be some sort of a loophole that the site would be relying on, or its just a plain scam. Either ways till that casino is verified to be legitimate, refrain from using it.

Interesting project you're trying to start there, using a hardware wallet as an open VPN connection. Though it is very unlikely that someone could trace down coins, that too to the device you used to send it from, seems compelling but I would like to see the response when you hit the markets.

Your project would need a bounty campaign allotting a very small portion of the tokens for it. Begin with social media campaigns like Twitter, Facebook and continue through blog campaigns as these are engaging platforms for gaining maximum outreach towards your project. Resort to having a translation campaign to translate the whitepaper and ANN's to various languages for the local folk to understand. A BTC signature campaign would be a big win as you will be hiring high quality posts to spread the word through their signatures.

I believe Bitcoin Cash to be the only legitimate hard fork of Bitcoin which aimed at bringing about an improvised protocol for betterment unlike Bitcoin gold and all the forks to happen in the future. With that said, it's only fair to say BCH will be the top most contender for BTC as it recently even pipped ETH market cap wise.

Welcome to the Indian Bitcoin scene where most exchanges are focused on making profit and don't care about customers and their experience. Zebpay is literally the biggest joke here as they set their own buy/sell prices irrespective of the price of Bitcoin and the users here are deluded enough to buy from them. With not many options to choose from and lbtc also being a hub for scammers, it is very difficult to trade Bitcoin effectively for profit in India.

People like and use Bitcoin over altcoins as it was the first of its kind. Imagine if everyone migrated to something like Ethereum, even its network would begin facing congestion problems as the number of users overwhelm the network pushing for transactions to be included in the next block.
It is fortunate that the congestion on the network compared to the last few days is almost down by over 50% which is great news for faster confirmations.

Cryptocurrencies have a substantial impact on both economic and social development. There have been up and coming projects which aim to provide blockchain solutions to underdeveloped countries in Africa, given that these projects actually make their mark, they are sure to bring an incredible positive change and would help the common people of the nations with all their needs.
Limited technology and accessibility could be the first hurdle here, but with big eyers eyeing down on these projects, it could help out to be a reaching hand to provide basic facilities for the folks.

What did you expect from a premined coin, the developers of which have no focus on optimization for the future and only seek a fast way to pocket some cash? You should've waited till the whole thing unfolded unlike jumping on a hype train before investing in it and now you're in a deep hole where even cutting losses wouldn't be feasible at this point. Just sell it before it digs itself into a deeper hole and plan your future investments with proper research.

Just remember that Bitcoin fees is always dependent upon the network congestion and the total number of transactions waiting in the mempool to be mined. Currently with the the seemingly increasing uncertainty, it is looking like the fees for an average transaction to be included within the next 10 blocks would be high given that the fee is over 100k satoshis which is quite a lot for smaller transactions. Will take quite some time for the network to ease up and then the miner fee might go lower.

There's no particular timeframe where it could be said that holding Bitcoin would be advisable as on the longer run, the profit is assured to roll in. With a few weeks of experience in understanding the price trends and the various factors contributing towards the variation in price, you can be the judge yourself whether it would a good time to stock up Bitcoin.

Its all a series of events towards betterment in my opinion, as we move ahead in this technological era, we have to keep ourselves updated with the highest level of available tech, moving on from the older ones. By saying this, I nod the implementation of altcoins, improvising on code and being applied to pertaining fields but I highly condemn hard forks on the Bitcoin main chain as these are mere efforts to extract money from an already stable entity on the pretext of calling it outdated which is highly detrimental.

It was pretty evident from the beginning that Bitcoin Gold would be premined the shit out of and it didn't fail to deliver. Anyone and everyone who supported this stupid fork must be thinking be on suicide watch right now. Its best to completely ignore this token like it never happened and move on as its value plummets down to the single digit mark which is when the realization of an utterly miserable attempt to fork for money hits the devs.

Most of this has to do with ICOs and not Bitcoin itself. With many of ICOs just proving to be foreign investments for the citizen of a country, its the nation baring the loss of tax evasion and with smaller amounts it goes untraceable. In India, I'm pretty sure they won't ban Bitcoin as the government and the RBI are set to launch their own cryptocurrency and banning Bitcoin here would make no sense at all.

The whole point of having a bank is to regulate money in a particular region and this is exactly the opposite of what Bitcoin proposes, decentralisation. Banks are centralised bodies which are run by the government/private agencies whereas Bitcoin is decentralised in nature, having no regulating authority so no, there won't be any Bitcoin Banks in the future either.

Been playing CS:GO since 2014 and also involved in most of the trading/gambling scene from many years now and it has been a ride with lots of ups and downs for me. Had a peek where I managed to get hold of an inventory worth $2000 with many knives and high tier skins. Made a lot of cash selling these skins for profit until I gambled and ended up losing the rest. I used to sell to trusted buyers who used to offer 65-75% of Steam market price on skins and always stayed away from websites who offer 55-60%. Also been playing Dota 2 from a few years and used to grab a few arcanas for playing SF/Lina.

Its better off to look for lower tier exchanges like Etherdelta, Mercatox, Cryptopia etc. when it comes to exchanging ERC-20 or any other Ethereum based tokens. These exchanges usually have low fees and a pretty decent trade volume on each token so trading for profit would be feasible. Keep in mind not to get swayed away by pump and dump coins which would be the worst case scenario as a beginner heading out to the trading world.

This is your first post on the forum and you're asking 70k satoshis as a fee for accelerating a transaction when there are multiple users offering this service for nothing. Most of the transactions that would surely be over 0.03 and you could be using a free accelerator like ViaBTC to make some free money which isn't entertained here.

EDIT : Nice fast edit mate, good thing you removed the fee for over 0.03 transactions voluntarily.
