what about adding what you want to sell to the store page of openbazar, i see not many people are using it still very empy

it would be far easier for you than making a whole website for this, or you can try to make something like all4btc if you really want to make your project and not rely on another one

for me the best would be a "purse.io" market that let me buy on anywebsite not just amazon

This idea is awesome.
But i dont think this is as easy as on amazon to be able to give such high percentages discount.
And without discounts i dont think people would be using this.. But on the other hand if you got a contract with some online shops.. this could work
5642  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Can bitcoin be frozen? on: February 12, 2017, 01:36:50 PM
Frozen you meant banning? Of course government can ban bitcoin, that the bitcoin can only circulate in underground condition and will be illegal.

To be honestly, i dont think a government can ban (to be more precisely: has the right to ban) a "virtual currency" which isnt even a real currency..
Just because people treat it like a currency it still isn't one.
If a government could ban Bitcoin, they also could ban mathematic equations and hash functions.

But back to topic:
Bitcoins can't be frozen as long as there are enough miners with electricity  Roll Eyes
5643  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Trezor from eBay, trustable? on: February 12, 2017, 09:13:31 AM
Yeah, I'd probably want to just order an official one from the manufacturer.

However, you will mostly likely fine as long as you reset/upgrade the firmware before using the device to ensure it was not tampered with. I believe Trezor would give you a warning for unsigned firmware anyhow.

I wouln't rely on a warning of unsigned firmware.. There are possibilities to get your fake firmware "signed"..
or at least to let the user think it signed, even tho its not.

But for test purposes its definetly fine with new flashed firmware on a 2nd hand trezor (as far as it wasnt opened or anything like that.. )
5644  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The danger of the cyptocurrencies on: February 12, 2017, 08:46:16 AM
I am not sure if that's a good thing. Being dependent so much on computers just scares me.

You dont have to store your Bitcoins on a Computer.. you just need a Private-/Public Key Pair.
You could generate them with PC (or you could even "generate" it from hand)..
A Paper Wallet can't be "hacked".. Neither can a properly build Hardware wallet be hacked.

Remember that not all people are aware as to how to run BTC from an USB nor do they understand paper wallets.
This is what is making it confusing for other people and since most of them are 'lazy' they stick with the opinion that crypto in general are dangerous.

We all now how risky exchanges and online wallets are so there must come a more easy solution. A hardware wallet for just 20 bucks f.e.

There are hardware wallets available for about 40 Bucks.
I think getting even cheaper will kinda be impossible if you still want to have secure algorithms and secured hardware.
5645  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bribing via bitcoin a good idea? on: February 12, 2017, 08:41:43 AM
With 1000 dollars each, it seems that bribing with bitcoin would be a good idea.  One USB stick will do the job with no third party required.
I would advice you not to do it because in any angle,currency or ways bribery will always be a bad idea ! Even tho bitcoin has the capacity to  clean and make you look like clean because bitcoin is anonymous on its nature ! it will not clean your conscience ! so please as early as now dont do it because as you ask it , it was a bad idea.

Bitcoin is not anonymous at all.. u got pseudonyms on the blockchain.. its pseudonymous..
But with a good Bitcoin Mixer you get near to fully anonymous.
I think bribing with BTC is more useful, safer and easier than with Fiat
5646  Other / Archival / Re: Do you agree with idea "Bitcoin bank" ? on: February 12, 2017, 08:37:24 AM
In my opinion a Bitcoin Bank destroys the inital Idea of Bitcoin: Everyone being the on "owning" his money..
If you give your money away and trust a 3rd Party.. then there is no reason in using Bitcoins.. u could just
use FIAT. I think centralizing a decentralized system makes 0 sense.
The only possible idea of investing in a Bitcoin bank would be a high interest rate..
But this, to be honestly, won't ever happen

For you there might not be any reason

But for other folks there could in fact be plenty of reason in using a Bitcoin bank. And still more so if Bitcoin banking services would be offered by regular banks. In that case you wouldn't need to pay hefty commissions on fiat withdrawals as well as deposits from and to Bitcoin exchanges, and I'm strongly inclined to think that the former will be more reliable overall than the latter (given all the hacks and scams that we've seen during the last 4 years)


I think you don't need a Bank to have low commissions on deposits/withdrawals.. a Currency exchange would be enough, no need of a real "Bank"
And even against those Hacks you could just use a Hardware Wallet.. But as you mentioned.. IMO a Bank is not needed.. may be different
for other persons
5647  Economy / Services / Re: Offering job! 20$/daily on: February 12, 2017, 08:29:38 AM
I see this coin as a future investment. I never used this forum, but everyone on trading chanel of telegram were asking me if I have an account here.

Scammed many times, I own almost 500.000 mrai.

If you think this is a scam do not join.

I will pay at every 3 days if people reaches their targets. Simple as that.

I am already having a team of 40 claimers daily. I use this targets because I want people who join to my team to work. I pay them more than enough for a job that takes around 6-8 hours.

Can't understand why you all say is a scam. I will not allow anyone who said this is a scam to join to my project.

Why are you not willing to escrow the funds then? onlinedragon is offering the same kind of service, but he is trusted.
you are just a newbie, and you could easily run away with the funds.

Am I talking about 1000$ to run away with funds? Cmon. With my targets I can scam for a maxim of 15$. And If I don't pay on time everyone is going to shutdown working. Where is the deal? People will be paid constantly day by day.

I don't know who is this dragon or what is his problem of life.

Please do not post off topic comments. Reply only if you are interested.

If people want to have a job, I think 20$/day is a good paid salary for half of this planet.

This is true not eat  Huh Huh 5$ /day ...

It is 5$/1000 captcha. You can work more if you want.

People on this forum scam for satoshis.. and i think you're one of them.
Proof your a honest person and escrow your funds.. instead of trying to scam people for bucks.
Every second working for a scammer is a second too much
5648  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Where would you invest if you had 40$/day ? on: February 11, 2017, 07:16:46 PM
The only things that comes from my mind is making a wise decision 40$ a day is big enough so i rather put 20$ to bitcoin wallet ,10$ to other investment and the other $10 into trading .
I agree 40$ income in a day is big enough that i cant decide if i should invest it to grow or just save it. maybe i will invest in bitcoin and good altcoins.
I think that using some of that money to invest in Bitcoin could give good returns, and it would probably be an investment with better risk-reward ration than investing in altcoins, cloud mining or other very risky investments. However, if I had the opportunity to invest in some good alt, I would probably give it a try, but I would invest a small part of the capital for that purpose.
Yes ,exactly how it is . Altcoin trading is quite hard for now as we saw if you observed that bitcoin price affects almost of the altcoins to dump so it is much better to invest in a good moving altcoins . Saving into bitcoin wallet $30 then $10 into some investments is a good idea who knows if you make it grow.
Sometimes investing in altcoins is pure gambling, but this is not always the case, as there are projects that actually try to solve real-world problems, and often such coins bring great potential to investors, especially when the project attempts to use Innovative solutions that few projects have tried before.

I'd says invesing in altcoins is almost always gambling.
With 40$ per day you should just stay to the coins.. this will give you the highest return in long term.
Of course you could start trading, but this involves work.. Sitting on your Coins will (probably) get you the highest
Return with the lowest effort.
5649  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is there truest religion? on: February 11, 2017, 06:53:01 PM
Religion was just created to give everything a reason/origin.
The reason there is a sun: God
The reason for being alive: God
and so on..

Even tho now 99,9% of things which were said to be "created by god" are proven to be physicaly, chemicaly or just evolutionary explainable
people still believe in God.. I dont care in what people are believing.. But i rather believe in my imaginary Friend Bob instead
of believing in an imaginary friend, created by people 2000y ago, called "god".
5650  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Simple Solution for Bitcoin Scaling on: February 11, 2017, 05:51:08 PM
I like the conept, but i disagree with the idea of needing a 3rd Party.
But theoratically it should be able to create a protocoll which does exactly this.. but without
the use of a 3rd (centralized) party.
This concept applied on a peer-2-peer network protocoll seems kinda interesting to me, even tho i dont think its such a big problem (yet).
Which, of course, can (and probably will) change in the next few years.
5651  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Is my method a secure way to gather entropy? on: February 11, 2017, 05:33:14 PM
You would gather a better entropy if you would use physical signals (like WLan rustle) or read randomly of the stack.
In Addition do that you should add some kind of random user input (Like movement of the mouse in the last X seconds, or seconds since Boot (But only if you start gathering your entropy manually and not directly after Boot via Autostart))
5652  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: February 11, 2017, 05:26:23 PM
I think better than Sig Campaigns or trading would be to look at BTC as real Money.
Just work for it, Sell Stuff, Do stuff people would pay you FIAT.. and then just take BTC instead...
But with a High Budget and the right "feeling", trading would be even better.. But that just applies to like 2-3% of all traders.

5654  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In Europe, bank transfers are free and unlimited for all on: February 11, 2017, 05:18:03 PM
I rather pay some cents for a transaction to be able to send money all over the world without being tracked
and without waiting 2-3 days until the money arrives.. and in addition to that you dont even control your money..
The Pro's of Bitcoin are not the low transaction fees (even tho they are pretty low.. )
If its about Transaction fees.. and fast payments.. you could use PayPal... but thats well.. a horrible idea (at least in my opinion)

5656  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think are the biggest disadvantages of Bitcoin? on: February 11, 2017, 05:05:33 PM
In my opinion the 2 biggest disadvantages are:
1) The unstable Confirmation time (Kinda hard to be realized in a fixum of 10-minutes of 1-minute)
2) The unstable prize.. because its not widely accepted as Currency, more as a stock.. But BTC actually reacts like a currency on FIAT falls/rises
5657  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Blockchain Is Capable To Prevent All Types Of Fraud on: February 11, 2017, 04:54:14 PM
I don't know the technicalities involved with the sending of transactions but if everything is recorded within the blockchain wouldn't that mean that it's possible to track were the stolen money ends up in?

Theoretically it is possible, yes.
Bitcoin is not anonymous at all.. its pseudonymous..
Since everything action can be traced, but not being assigned to a person, rather to a Pseudonym.
If someone knows your Addresses (Pseudonym), its like an open book reachable via www to all of your transactions.
5658  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a chance Satoshi is dead? Car accident, heart failure, ect on: February 11, 2017, 04:50:29 PM
The possibility of Satoshi being dead exists.. but personally i dont think this is the case.
If i would have invented something like BTC, i would give them to my relatives after my death..
And i cant believe they didnt make use them..

My thought is, he wants to stay anonymous.. People love him, people hate him.. its better to stay anonymous..
5659  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How did you first hear about bitcoin? on: February 11, 2017, 04:28:31 PM
The first time i heared about Bitcoin was in Class, when our topic was Digital Signatures and Hash functions/Proof-of-Work Concept.
Our prof mentioned Bitcoin and the way it worked (Compressed in like 2-3 Minutes).
In the same lesson i started googling and found this forum..
Then i registered on a site which payed satoshis (i think it was a site containing 30-40 faucets).. Then after i didnt got my payment
i registered on this site, looking for help Cheesy
I came looking for help, and stayed because i liked it  Cool
5660  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Saving bitcoins on: February 11, 2017, 04:24:04 PM
Actually there is a Bitcoin Bank.. its called "Bitcoin Crypto Bank"..
But to be honestly i wouldn't trust a Bank.. regardeless if its for Cryptocurrencies or Fiat..
The highest "Interest rate" would be probably if you loan your coins or just save them.. at least if u belive in Bitcoin
(I guess you wouldn't be here if you didnt believe in BTC Wink )
