5881  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Priority removed? on: March 06, 2017, 12:12:40 PM
If you mean about the part when you viewed a particular transaction in which there was a status according to it's priority (high, medium and low) then you have a point (was useful) but from the wallet itself, it's still there. You should switch from "Regular Send" to "Advanced Send" so you would be able to adjust and see the status as below (before you make the payments and perhaps this is the reason that they took away the priority status part since you could know everything before processing the payment):






Within 1 block = High priority
Within 6 blocks = Medium priority
More than 6 blocks = Low priority
5882  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcoin Artist Collective, Anyone? on: March 05, 2017, 03:10:25 PM
10% of all sales would be used to buy mining contracts that pay an equal dividend to all artists based on their number of approved store listings.

Thoughts?
For starters, 10% is way lower than a fair percentage, 40% should be the least for these kinds of sales. Payments shouldn't be in a indirect manner (mining contract earnings being divided and then paying the artist) but instead it should be directed at artists (in bitcoin) on a regular manner.
What measurements would be taken to ensure the artists of fair earnings? Would there be a transparency in terms of each sales for each artist?
5883  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Mining on VPS on: March 05, 2017, 11:08:33 AM
Is it recommended to mine on VPS?
NO. Most providers that offer cheap VPS, hate it when users attempt to mine on it and as result suspend those users account.

In other words, is it profitable to do so?
It has been unprofitable for years.

Can someone put me through on how to mine Bitcoin? Or give me materials or send a website where I can learn how to mine Bitcoin from the start. Thanks
Start from here:
https://99bitcoins.com/beginners-guide-to-mining/

To have a general idea:

Take note: Nowadays only "ASIC Mining" is worth the shot.
5885  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Unconfirmed transaction for 5 day on: March 04, 2017, 01:03:01 PM
I am new to the bitcoin system, i have sent bitcoins 5 days ago and the order is still unconfirmed:

https://blockchain.info/tx/dfc41f646a3b1c2aa90bac2f89c80cac89edca869bd683f48105ec736cf3536b
According to "Received Time", you sent it 2 days ago (not 5 days ago).

- I thought that dynamic fee would calculate the appropriate fee, then why do i have the message "low fee" ?
Most likely you forgot to bring the slider to the most right side (even if you've checked the use dynamic fee option) and as result, ended up with "low fee" status.

- I wanted to have a look on viabtc accelerator but it seems to be out of order: https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/
It's not out of order but rather limited to maximum of 100 transactions per hour. Just keep trying it.

- Right now i see there is more than 60k unconfirmed transactions (https://blockchain.info/fr/unconfirmed-transactions), what's the usual number ?
Actually it goes up and down throughout the day but before the recent incidents (massive unconfirmed transactions going beyond 100k), it usually was on an average from 30k to 60k range at most.

- When will the network forget my transaction, how long can it last ?
Around 72 hrs.

- Does someone have any tips for me ?

5886  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: except bitpay, which bitcoin payment gateway you like to use? on: March 04, 2017, 05:50:25 AM
Gocoin (https://www.gocoin.com/) seems to gives also an smooth experience like bitpay and their support is somehow good as well (based on past experience).

PAYMIUM (https://paymium.com/page/services#merchants) also seems to be another option worthy of a look (although haven't tested their way of processing).

This thread belongs to "Service Discussion section".
5887  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Serious Question About Unconfirmed Transaction and domino effect on: March 04, 2017, 03:42:25 AM
Lets say this 0.5BTC is not confirmed in x amount of time. Im assuming, the 0.5BTC payment goes back to Mr A. What happens to the remaining 2.5 BTC ?

Does it

- Go on forward and get confirmed on shapeshifts address (destination) ?
or
- Come back on my blockchain.info address (origin) ?
Goes back to your address.

I personally blame blockchain.info for allowing unconfirmed transactions to be included in available balances and then allowing users to send out balances that contain unconfirmed transactions within it. This causes payments to be choked further along the line.  

PS. Whats even more wierd is this transaction ONLY shows on blockchain.info's blockchain explorer. On the other blockchain explorers, it doesnt even show.
Although it would've been nice for them to not allow unconfirmed inputs to be used, it's still users (your) fault for using it since you took the risk of using a transaction that might never receive confirmations. Other nodes have most likely dropped it and as result, that transaction isn't visible on other explorers.

This thread gives a solution for the confirmation issues (and few others): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1802212.0
5888  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: 0,00039 BTC fee still not approved? on: March 03, 2017, 10:02:08 AM
Even though one day passed, the transaction is still not approved? How long do I have to wait for the transaction to be approved?
There's no definite answer but there could be an estimated amount of blocks depending on the fee you paid per byte.

If the transaction is not approved, will the 0,00039 BTC value be returned to me?
Yes, if it gets dropped from the network, it will be returned to the senders address.

Should I wait for the transaction to be approved? Can I do another transaction now?
You can wait while doing few other steps like adding it to "ViaBTC website" so it could speed up the process (https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/). If you're going to double spend it, then that's when you want to make another transaction.

5889  Other / MultiBit / Re: Transaction rejected by our node. on: March 03, 2017, 05:45:29 AM
1st issue: You used a very low fee than the recommended fee on per byte basis and it resulted to the 1st warning
2nd issue: After following your main address (https://blockchain.info/address/163FQt96KHh9Di6L9vtahq9DGpM3T1oaYb), it seems that you've double spend it since some nodes haven't dropped the initial transaction and that resulted to the 2nd warning

It might take a while but one of those eventually will be confirmed (although you still used a fee lower than recommended on second attempt)

5891  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Transaction reversed on: March 02, 2017, 08:14:23 AM
Does anyone had any problems with bitify ?
Nothing so far although this issue should fall down under their teams fault (since bitify escrow most likely used a fee, less than recommended and it resulted in it being dropped after few days).

It's there a probability I can lose my coins ?
As long as you've provided enough evidence, your coins should be safe with them.
5892  Economy / Economics / Re: BitCoin Exchange on: March 01, 2017, 10:14:25 AM
Not sure where you're staying but will base my answer on my own location. I've worked with a local offline (on spot) exchange before and the actual volume of BTCitcoin trades never been to a level that gains you any significant amount in terms of taking few percentages from each trades (my guess is, it's due to all the other alternative options that can be done with a press of a button, in other words online trades are way more popular than the traditional exchanges since the whole steps are a lot easier). On the other hand, it isn't worth the hassle to go and take permits just to see yourself making few trades on a daily basis.

- Are there any rules except the official posting rules here?
No.

- What is the best way to write a post like that?
Make it look professional at least (most tend to just post without even aligning stuff). Few simple details that can be done with provided tools above each post can have a big impact.

- General tipps?
It would be best to have an account that is at least Jr. member and above so the images would be shown normally (instead of links if posted by Newbie users).

5895  Economy / Services / Re: [CONTEST] - SIGNATURE CODE - 0.05 BTC - MyBit ✦ on: February 26, 2017, 06:04:42 PM
Here's my entry Smiley



~Snipped~
~Snipped~
Not sure if you're aware or not but you're using parts of a design that I made in the past. The middle part is based on my previous work, even though you tweaked it a bit (exact same font / Not all caps / deleted the in between parts / changed the order of the names). In a way you're presenting my past work, as yours (even if you used only parts of it).
Regardless of the fact that both of your entries are invalid (except the Hero version in your 2nd entry, although it needs tweaking in terms of size for both end parts), you shouldn't present someone else's work as yours (be original).

Since I've seen a lot of invalid entries, I recommend everyone to read the following link (middle part of 1st post) and change their entries accordingly).
Signature restrictions: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.0


Update:
I have a little doubt on that but for proving that he has copied your work you have to provide the proof so that people know and decide that how he have copied your work. As you said he have copied some part of the design you provided so maybe he only copied the idea!
I've been designing signatures for long enough to notice someone using a plagiarized content (from my previous designs).

Proof 1 (1st part): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1753651.msg17633878#msg17633878
Proof 1 (2nd part): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1785247.0

Proof 2 (1st part): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1775265.0
Proof 2 (2nd part): You can see it in my portfolio thread (link in my profile, not the escrow link in personal message area).

Check middle parts of each so you would know. For further proofs, you could also ask each respective owners.

5896  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Has the high fees problem changed your behaviour when spending bitcoins? on: February 26, 2017, 12:30:23 PM
"No" since mostly(since before), I've used the appropriate fees and the difference with recent events is minimal in my case, therefor my behavior hasn't changed. From my observation, majority of users that I see complain nowadays, are those that used to put a fee lower than recommended (and got used to it since it did the trick) and they see the current situation as a big change rather than a step climb in fees.
5897  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: A Bitcoin Business Directory For Bitcoin Entrepreneurs? Thoughts? on: February 26, 2017, 08:26:59 AM
So I would list sites and try and interview the owners and get key information from them. Information like:
- When they started the business
- Why they started the business
- How big their team is
- Where they want the business to go
Usually the answer to these questions is already provided on most websites.

So I would list sites and try and interview the owners and get key information from them. Information like:
- How much they are earning
- How difficult it is to run
These on the other hand is going to be tricky since not everyone is going to reveal the answers.

Does something like this already exist in the Bitcoin Space?
Yes, here's the list (there might be some more):

1. https://coinmap.org/welcome/
2. http://spendbitcoins.com/
3. http://usebitcoins.info/
4. http://bitcoin.travel/

Any thoughts?
Regardless of the fact that there's already similar websites, it would always be nice to have a new addition to those lines. Some websites don't have everything listed yet (tend to miss few businesses out there) so there's definitely room for one more.

You're mixing $35 to 0.030179BTC. Check the transaction link again: https://blockchain.info/tx/1eb6a5997ae3c3c98f42ac13feb0f813d0dc640825ff7196d3a3eebcb134d9c2
Hover over the 0.030179BTC amount and it will show you the exact value at the time of transaction process (which is $35.16).
