I'll vote later, but I suggested this before and I know the newbies army can easily manipulate the results and wish there was a way to count only full members+ votes. I'd go with whatever is best for bitcoin and it's future of course miner's profit is one of the important priorities, we should see what will keep the community united and even stronger than before. If activating the way they intend to do is going to cause 2 different sides as to dividing the whole system and community then a big NO. If doing so will alter the purpose and meaning of "open source" "publicly distributed" and "decentralization" in any possible way a big NO. If not doing so is going to favor individuals all over the world and wont slow down and cripple the network then YES, meaning NO to segwit.

One of the best options would be this forum with at least an 8 month old account Sr. Member+ to try a signature campaign only if you actually read more than posting. Another option you could try in the future it's a new project called "chronobank" hopefully they will deliver as promised and it all wont be about just the coin and it's price ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . https://Bitcointalk.org is #1 and strongest communities in cryptoland.

There are plenty exchanging services that you'll be amazed and even might barf since their number is way too many for market such as crypto.
Cex.io Kraken.com
Those 2 services I know that I can trust, you need to decide for yourself though. and you did a good thing to enter crypto (buying only bitcoin) you wont regret it.

I'd like to suggest to everyone here, please refrain from giving your opinions as if they are facts, if you are no expert of international laws, if you are not a lawyer then just stop acting like one.

Wrong section, should be in gambling section, very nice winnings, lucky guy.
I'm not that guy. I have lost on their game. I'm asking whether there are other gambling sites offering 0% house edge where I wont have to fight with the site owner to get my winnings out? What do you mean with " fighting site owner to get winnings out?" I am little confused how can 0% house edge help you with that. House edge has nothing to do with withdrawals. And to your first post, someone won 0.17, but are you sure that guy didn't lose before or after he won this? Lately, many gambling sites, where deposit to site wallet is required, are denying BIG wins. www.bitcoinbetting.website is pretty safe from this issue as players do not require to keep anything deposited to the site wallet. We can play and forget. Either we lose or win back directly to an address that we control. I prefer this kinda games... How can you play on a casino if they don't have access to the money you are depositing? an address that you control as to having the private key? Show me a casino where I can play with my own address ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) it's not site's wallet but a new wallet for each deposit. If house edge is 0% then how exactly the house can sustain and not going bankrupt? Winning big then try to withdraw small amounts and do a few withdraws, of course any casino doesn't like to let people take out their big wins as soon as they win ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) .

You know every country has different rates, are you going to include different currencies as well? I only see 3 currencies and if you could change the color of BTC to be more visible and when I entered 0.01 after a few seconds it showed me something like this 0.01000743. but it's useful overall. I used cex.io calculator(converter) before but after seeing some security warnings relating a red https I stopped going there. If you try to advertise my opinion people will stop using the service, but for now it loaded fast and smooth.
Also get rid of the matrix background.

Bitfury and bitmain are serious ones, I can predict that in 5 years from now all these miners become useless and the manufacturers could economically benefit from just one single quantum chip capable of mining efficiently as 1k S9 miners, but until then we'll see at least 2 more generations of ASICs. Bitmain mined with S9 miners for 3 months before selling them to public and every manufacturer will do the same no matter what.
After all we know any new technology or improved one always is used by a few and then available to the masses unlike bitcoin which was publicly available from the start.
I'd suggest bitmain but you should research more yourself.

Yes, it is possible to make 1000 and more BTC but all depends on your initial investment and it takes time according to it. To start from 10 BTC and make 100 BTC per year is very possible. Just if you know how to trade you can make it. Compounding is a huge power ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Totally agreed with you, everything depends on your initial investment, if you had invested into MOnero this time last year, by now you would have X24 return on you investment. So if you invested 1BTC you will get 24BTC return, 10BTC will give 240BTC and 100BTC will give 2400BTC. But the higher the investment, the higher also the risk and the higher the reward However it's all about the initial fund but remember that in case of monero or even dash you could easily lose instead of huge gain but for bitcoin it's not like that and profit in future is guaranteed. the risk involved in altcoin trading is much more than just buying bitcoin and hold or simply trading bitcoin with fiat.

I think you thought bitcoin is like every other shitcoins out there, there will always be the possibility of forking and since this is open source we're talking about then the most honest and transparent block chain will gain the most trust and miners use that version, now you see those scenarios already happening alts going down but the best block chain(/bitcoin) stays up.

Why would you jump from site to site? I have been lucky this way as well but I was loyal to the house which won me big and when I had enough I withdrew, however when I calculate my past losses in other casinos seems like I'm still at losing side even if I win big few times in 6 months ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) .

This is the nature, no one can change it, more than 65% of all bitcoins being mined in china by several big and a few medium mining farms, so they actually should be scared and dump for fiat because they live there, you don't really think all of them working together in an elaborate manipulation scheme do you? on the contrary the governments specially in last 2 months been spooked by daily bitcoin market volume and are reacting to keep the money flow under control and traceable, as you know people are free to do whatever they want with their money as long as it's legal and taxes paid but when we're talking about 9 figures amounts of cash moving around it's like an alert to them that's why they try to corner crypto traders to watch them up close.

Only services I know that were once legit and turned into scam and ran away like hash ocean and other service which I don't even remember their damn name and both were operating as "cloud mining", I can't really name a legit investing site other than big and reputable casinos accepting investors and 1 or 2 remaining so called legit cloud mining services which we all know of, hint. . . HN, GM. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . I don't know why couldn't they operate a legit and long term healthy business it would've been in their favor.

Good thing about bitcoin it needs no legal oversight and it's lawless as it is trustless, just think about it no matter where you are in the world you can access to your funds only if you have access to internet connection. no country should ever recognize bitcoin as a currency and even write laws about it. I'm talking about bitcoin itself not people using it and how they using it. Imagine that you could buy bitcoin in your country though after finding a seller and then going in another country and find a buyer, now lets see if any government will be able to stop you ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) and if you are worried about tracking issues you could use a mixer service to cover your tracks.

In this case (bitcoin costing 2.500.000$), each satoshi would cost 0.025$, I believe that is the purpose of bitcoin on long term and it will happen, if not with bitcoin it will happen with another crypto-currency, an altcoin. Bitcoin has many houses because it was designed to cost a lot and work on long term as super-valorized currency. However I don't think all the money world will be crypto-currency, fiat will exist too.
Don't tell me the altcoin in your mind is LTC? I laughed enough now tell me another joke. not even bitcoin can someday worth more than $50k at most. Problem with OP here is that he thinks the world is only US ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) though I know that when I sell bitcoin locally they first convert the worth of it into fiat(dollar) and then pay me my local currency but I don't pay any fees doing it, so basically I'm selling bitcoin for my local currency.

I think all of us often lose in gambling and only a few are sometimes lucky enough to win a considerable amount, I myself usually gamble and when I win I don't withdraw until reaching my goal, yes when I gamble at first I set a goal which is an amount and only if I reach that goal then I withdraw everything. Does anyone here do gambling for living?
There are a few that I know of counting on gambling earnings but other than admins and casino owners I think depending on gambling for an income source for living is the definition of being stupid or desperately foolish.

Hello all.
Yesterday I got my Bitcoin wallet and I also downloaded the file for mining, GUIMiner.
Searching for a pool to start mining, I found Slush. For some reason I don't know, after I've registered, the site of Slush doesn't let me login even if the username and password are correct. What should I do? Do you know other pools that could be useful for a newbie like me?
Moreover, what username and what password should I write on GUIMiner to start mining? And what does mean the phrase "accepted shares"?
What are your miners? estimated hash rate of your ASICs? there are many mining software and each one is good if know how to use them. Bitcoin.org is a good place for finding legit information, also in slush pool they give you what you need to enter in GUI Miner, just make sure you are not using the Demo account. It's good to know that mining bitcoin needs cheap electricity and solo mining is no longer profitable, what you could do is to mine altcoins and exchange them with bitcoin.

I'm not a Terrorist, I don't help any organization build bombs, but my country being sanctioned I can not use paypal or creditcards(I can but will have to pay insane fees) now bitcoin presented a golden opportunity for me, however I can't use it widely as fiat but I'm here to help bitcoin so it can help me in the near future. Yes anyone holding the majority of bitcoins will be the richest, so stop the hesitation and buy as much as you can to be a rich individual 30 years from now ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .

You should probably cap the amount of BTC someone can sell with the actual amount of paypal you can provide.
Sure, thanks for the comment. We will add it in our next updates. For now we can provide almost any amounts you need. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) How can you expect people to trust you when you are the one should work hard to gain the known members's trust here then others will follow just like a chain of trust, I'd suggest to high ranking members to test this service before throwing accusations and just say it's a scam. Though I think they need to publicly share their transactions so every one could use them only after the last person got paid successfully.

Price drops and miners quit mining that causes difficulty to decrease and the golden opportunity in sight for us small miners to dig deeper and take as much advantage like plugging our toasters after buying as many s7 or s9 because what ever happens it doesn't make bitcoin less valuable.
Something I should say here, know they can never touch the trunk only cut off a few branches, bitcoin has it's roots penetrated hard metal and stone that not even the red storm of planet Jupiter can unsettle the bitcoin's tree.

Did anyone actually invest anything in this shit or we all are just hanging around? do you even know what it means when a coin is requested for listing on an exchange and it has 0 f**king vote? free vote 0 I mean WTF? in case if you didn't know there are at least 5 projects with ICO by the same team in this forum and after they are finished collecting unsuspected newbies coins will make another 3 or 4 new ICOs for summer and 3, 4 or 5 for fall again 2 or 3 for winter, this is a job for some people ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) .
