Better hold up until the end of this year. Many companies are having implementations with bitcoin. Those who lost from the crash wouldn't want to see that just past.
582  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What you do when someone say bitcoin is illegal thing? on: August 05, 2018, 02:37:28 PM
unfortunately there is lots of FUD that has misled many people but i still don't believe that the majority of people in the world think that way. i believe that most people already know that bitcoin is not "illegal" or "used by hackers",... but the reason why they are not still getting involved with it is the volatility, the FUD about it "ending bad" and things like that, and the thought that bitcoin is complicated.

you usually can't change the opinion of those who think negative.

I agree, I usually leave them and say this motto of Robert  Kiyosaki to myself, "Don't teach the pigs how to sing, it will be hard for you, and it will irritate the pig".
583  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A lot of hacks, whats the solution? on: August 04, 2018, 01:09:41 PM
Before I bought my Ledger Nano S, I use this technique to withdraw or send BTC and Tokens from campaigns I joined.

1. I create a bootalble usb driver with Ubuntu OS on it. Instructions here https://kb.iu.edu/d/bciz
2. Boot into Live Boot mode of Ubuntu.

By that, I don't have to format my PC or clean it just to make sure that my environment is safe. Just make sure you have downloaded the Ubuntu installer by its website. You can always do checksum verification on it. The instruction can be found here: https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001846.htm
584  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: what will happen if miners stop mining bitcoin? on: August 04, 2018, 12:56:32 PM
This of course could be up for debate, but in theory from the inception of Bitcoin, there should always be a miners incentive.

If this would happen I will probably agree. We will need a way miner to keep doing their work. If 21 million is mined and maxed out, this should be the way we pay miners.
585  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-08-04] Starbucks To Accept BTC Payment For Your All Time Favorite Coffees on: August 04, 2018, 12:48:24 PM
So, this is just another Bitcoin payment processor like BitPay and others, Starbucks and other companies won't really be accepting Bitcoin, this new processor will be immediately converting coins into fiat. This is less exciting than if they were accepting Bitcoin directly and managing their own wallets, it shows that companies are still scared of volatility, hackers and other risks. But it seems they are at least not scared of Bitcoin getting declared illegal, so that's some progress.

Well at least people will be using bitcoins for something and not just hoarding it in wallets. It also legitimizes Bitcoin as a

alternative payment option, even if these third party payment processors are used. I think if initiatives like this gets some

traction, then we will see a lot more companies and franchises doing the same thing.  Cool  Let's just see some positive angle

on this.  Roll Eyes

I agree. At least bitcoin will have that kind of impression of it is usable as payment in the real world not just via online stores or alike. So I guess November this year is really where things are going to be excited.
586  Bitcoin / Press / [2018-08-04] Starbucks To Accept BTC Payment For Your All Time Favorite Coffees on: August 04, 2018, 03:13:05 AM
Starbucks on November will start accepting crytocurrency payments like Bitcoin for payment to their products.

Starbucks in partnership together with International Exchange, Microsoft, BCG and other more will make this all possible through Bakkt, a company their currently building.

This is said a good news for most crypto users because it is expected that it will aide against cryptos volatility and the ever wonder of where you can actually use bitcoin as payment by spreading adoption.

Starbucks is not the first to accept bitcoin payment. Overstock, Shopify, Newegg and other platforms before also accepted bitcoin payments.

So are we still to expect a bullish run on bitcoin this year? Leave your thoughts in the reply.

587  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you still believe in bounties and Cryptocurrency? on: August 02, 2018, 01:22:57 PM
There's alot of people move out from Cryptocurrency some are for their loses and without experience,some are doing for in bounty campaigns but still not get result so I want to know behalf of that reason I have mention is correct. What do you think?

Bounties are real OP. You just need to be super patient. Bounties run around 3 - 6 months continuously until the sale ends. After the sale wait for the bounty on your wallet. Just be careful with scam ICOs, there are 80% of these kinds of ICOs nowadays so lookout.
588  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Kim Kardashian promoting Bitcoin on instagram. During Poker Game. on: August 02, 2018, 01:15:39 PM
You're completely right in my opinion, we should treat Bitcoin as something only the tech-savvy can make use of.
It needs to be accessible for everyone, even Kim Kardashian...

I do think it's pretty noteworthy, she has millions of followers who track her every move, even a small mention like this will not go unnoticed.

Agreed. But we still need to make bitcoin easy to understand and use for beginners or the past pump and dump will happen again. Beginners will always be scared of a down move in the market whenever it happens because they don't know that it is normal.

Plus the ever-changing network transfer speed. Before it scares me whenever I create a bitcoin transfer, not sure if it will succeed because it almost took me 6 hours for it. But now that I know the right fee for a normal transfer I don't get scared that much.
589  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Do people have to pay taxes on Bitcoin? on: August 02, 2018, 01:04:15 PM
Paying taxes is always a good decision. It supports the growth of your economy for your future family or your child's family.

In my country government regulate bitcoin but I'm really not sure how they tax us or if they even do. Because I don't see the summary on my orders.

591  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoin in Southeast Asia be legal? on: August 01, 2018, 01:46:55 PM
Most southeast Asia countries use it and they might never legalize it but they support it. You can even spot some atm machine in the countries within and even use fiat ATMs for it.



Check out this list of Bitcoin ATMs in Asia.

592  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 17th Million bitcoin has been mined. 4 million left to go. on: August 01, 2018, 01:25:50 PM
And after all bitcoins are mined, miners will profit only on bitcoin fees right and there will be no more rewards. Are there any other ways a miner can profit from that event?
593  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: GOOGLE BANS BITCOIN MINING APPS.ON PLAY STORE on: July 31, 2018, 01:02:27 PM
Cellphone mining apps are either a scam, are not really mining (like some altcoins that claim to be mobile-minable, but they just give pre-mined coins or tokens for you to run a "miner" while they show you adds or use your phones resources for other things) or are completely and utterly useless

Or it could even be a hack app to monitor your password or alike. I've seen someone edited the default samsung camera apk. The app now acts like the system camera but in the background it opens the camera secretly and even monitor txts and a lot more. That is why google is taking a good step here I think.
594  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Samsung has now entered the cryptocurrency world on: July 31, 2018, 12:39:20 PM
According to what I read, Samsung only offering this chip to their partner bitcoin mining in China. But I guess this will be that start, On my opinion, if this keeps up as mention above, many competition means cheaper in price. So I think the price of Bitcoin Fees will keep on Dropping and hopefully a little bit faster than before.

This will mean more innovation and features also. As we all know samsung also leads to innovation. It will surely come a time where samsung will show people new ways of bitcoin mining.
595  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: myetherwallet not send tokens on: July 29, 2018, 02:14:44 PM
It should work, though the address you are sending it shows not checksummed. Try verifying the address of where you are going to send the tokens or verify it to the ICO may some encounter this problem that maybe is a problem with the contract.
596  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can you invest in bitcoin without being scammed? on: July 29, 2018, 02:10:31 PM
How can you invest in bitcoin without being scammed? There are people using very fine techniques like selling bitcoin cash in name of bitcoins using confusing websites name. How to be safe from such scams ?

Do you mean buying bitcoins? People creating post nowadays are having a hard time explaining their questions haha. If buying is what you are asking then you should only buy at exchanges that accept your fiat currency. That is the safest way I am using and I can think of.
597  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am going to visit Rovereto, the Bitcoin capital of Italy. Suggestions? on: July 28, 2018, 01:31:23 PM
I will not suggest anything but it will be nice if you share your experience after it. I will be one of those waiting for your travel. I haven't seen an ATM machine up until now.
598  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: General use of bitcoin as a legal currency on: July 28, 2018, 01:29:00 PM
I've heard many of my companions say the bitcoin is the greatest invention in the decade.. But I wonder why every country don't accept this as a legal currency in their general transactions?

I think because simply because they can't handle it for every people in their county to benifit. Yeah, I'm talking about taxes.
599  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's with ethereum? on: July 28, 2018, 01:26:17 PM
Ethereum is currently at it's high now. Actually, people are predicting the high up to 800 usd. Are you talking about ethereum not as high as bitcoin?
600  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why you should stay off from market prediction on: July 27, 2018, 01:21:30 PM
I think you should have added to your list a caution on pump and dump groups. They are the ones causing most of the false prediction, speculation, and news. Plus they have lots of effort doing this.
