5901  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you use multiple Bitcoin Wallets to store your Bitcoins? on: September 08, 2016, 01:09:02 PM
It doesn't matter where you keep them in addresses I mean because if one bitcoin address could be hacked then all of them are at risk.
a wallet could contain so many address and wallet is definitely different with an address,and as you say if people are using various wallet but keeping the money in the same address or even using that address's privkey in various wallet,it's the same or i say such a useless effort
5902  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do people use so many Bitcoin wallets? on: September 08, 2016, 01:03:50 PM
I only use 1 .and thinking of having anogher 1. maybe they plan there first to be there savings wallet.  the othe the investment wallet and the others for gaming or trading.  i just think so
i use only one bitcoin wallet too, i just dont need any more right now to be honest and i hope that i wont need it in the future too because it would be hard to find everything
in my opinion people should have two different bitcoin wallet, why? the one for large amount transaction with very high security and the other for your daily uses with normal security , it wouldn't be good if everytime you send the coin from one bitcoin wallet it's shown how many you have bitcoin and people could trace the owner and doing something bad.
Those users having multiple bitcoin wallet mostly they are gambler because some bitcoin wallet will get you banned if you received income from grambling, and also they want the services each bitcoin wallet.
it's only for USA based bitcoin wallet such as wallet that provided by coinbase,but if you're using another wallet like desktop wallet,hardware wallet,or just online wallet that's not based on USA,it'll be fine so gambling is not the reason
5903  Other / Off-topic / Re: When is Bitcoins going to die? on: September 08, 2016, 12:34:54 PM
i do not think that bitcoin are going to die because are too stronger and powerful  currency and everyone adopting bitcoin in huge amount and hold it for long term so bitcoin will be never go to die it will survive always.

Adoption is not huge at a moment, its increasing slowly and steadily but bitcoins has great scope to be a powerful currency in future when many more companies will start accepting it.

I guess he meant people are adopting it in a large amount and that is right because not a lot of companies in physical world adopted bitcoin right now and if that happens it would surely make it more stronger than now.

Its hard to believe that companies will start adopting bitcoins as price volatility can create a major issue as companies need to invest huge amount in bitcoins and if price falls then it will be a big loss for them.
as long the companies adopting bitcoin only for another payment option or alternative of payment option it will be fine,there's exist a bitcoin payment API that directly exchange the bitcoin to fiat at the current rate so there's nothing to worry about the volatility,and they surely don't need to invest for doing it
5904  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bitcointalk is a good way to get information about Bitcoins? on: September 08, 2016, 12:23:03 PM


There will be many people who will speculate the price of bitcoin and altcoins but no one knows what will happen in future, its good to spend time here but take decisions only after doing proper research on your own.
that's why it called a speculation even there's also unreasonable speculation which don't have any reason that backed up the following speculation,speculation will be just speculation at the end and the future is just matter about the time not about the speculation itself
5905  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How can we encourage local businesses to accept BTC? on: September 08, 2016, 12:19:48 PM
you basically have to explain to them how bitcoin works, what are the benefits and the cons of it. Base on my experience i personally introduce it to one of my friend that has a business and during that time my knowledge was really not enough to explain it to him so it just end up to no deal situation.

Understanding bitcoin for someone who is not connected to internet or technology much is actually to hard because i tried it myself to make some people understand it but they might it too complex.
well you're actually could just use an explanation video that available on youtube so they will know it and i guess the video could explain better than us because that video was made with effort and being planned perfectly,sometimes if we explain to another people,they'll can't know what we're talking about due to different thinking
5906  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing Bitcoins? on: September 08, 2016, 11:10:54 AM
The best thing you can do is investing into the bitcoin because allot of speculatings about that the price will be very high in the future can be true so why dont we all use bitcoins or just invest something.

If you have a good capital then you can buy bitcoins at this stage as price is not too high but if you are planning to invest bitcoin somewhere then it can be very risky.

Bitcoin investment  is always risky. there's no area where investing bitcoin is 100%safe. but if you have skills and knowledge about altcoin trading, you can earn huge fastly.But. there's also need a bit of luck and also it's little risky.

The bitcoin investment is risky. So I just buy when there is price dip. I bought some when the price was around $570. I have made some profits.
so the bitcoin's volatile characteristic that you say it's risky just give you some profits,so you're indirectly saying that bitcoin's volatility sometime gives a benefits to the bitcoin holder as long you're buying and selling in the right time,that does make sense,even making profit by trading bitcoin will took longer and lesser profit than trading an altcoin
5907  Economy / Economics / Re: Is silver a good store of value? on: September 08, 2016, 11:07:05 AM
As the title suggests, please share your views on silver and its store of value.

Silver has been used for money for thousands of years before us. But will it continue to have this function?
Why silver again ? and why not we go with gold or even bitcoin.

I mean to ask what is the special feature can enjoy to have silver as store of value. But I agree both gold and silver has continuous market demands and their value appreciations too almost similar. Still, we are moving out of gold towards bitcoin, why we need to consider the third one, silver.
the similiarity of silver towards gold make it could be considered as an alternate way to safe your wealth,i think that's why and it's not a wrong thing to save in form of silver due to its stability of the price,just figured out the silver's price statistic this month and i could say it's as stable as gold so why not?
5908  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Someone told me HASHOCEAN is coming back on: September 08, 2016, 11:03:40 AM
They will not get back, its just a scam website like it already was, you never should trust such websites due to the fact they are all just want steal your bitcoins..
They are just ponzis, almost all of them are this so you can not trust one in my eyes.

all of your statement that i just bold make me sure that those scam websites will eventually get back,as you now every fake cloud mining site that using ponzi scheme will eventually collapse and then there will be another similiar website popping out and advertising everywhere,and as you say "due to the fact they are all just want steal your bitcoins.." it's the main reason why they're still exist
5909  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Doubling Bitcoin? on: September 08, 2016, 10:58:50 AM
If you want to double your bitcoin or to earn bitcoin trading is the best for me,,
gambling is the best also to double or to triple your bitcoin
well just incase if you could "manage to win" but if you lose then you'll suffering from it because there's will be no way to double bitcoin since the all of the bitcoin are lose,the risk quite fair indeed for an easy money,but i'd really not encourage it if there's better way exist
5910  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why would customers use Bitcoins? on: September 08, 2016, 10:53:18 AM

because bitcoin is very stronger and secure currency and bitcoin is really available in everywhere in corner of the world and bitcoin is very good currency for online shopping .
It is but that is hard to explain to some users who are stubborn and get worried even when the price of bitcoins fluctuates a little. The biggest issue with such people is that even when they are told that they can convert their BTC right into BTC then also they don't want to use bitcoins as a payment method.
i think that kind of people are lack of knowledges because if someone just worried about volatility behaviour of bitcoin and getting worried to use it as payment option on their services,they could simply use any bitcoin payment API that convert bitcoin directly to fiat,just for example bitpay
5911  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Is Blockahin.info hacked? on: September 07, 2016, 02:02:17 PM
Slight off topic: can I send coins using blockchain.info wallet to multiple addresses in one go, as  bulk transaction?
yeah you can,using custom transaction so you could add as receiver's address as much as you can in bulk,but keep in mind to set the fees higher than average because the transaction will probably have larger size than usual or make sure to use the current fees/kb and calculate it
5912  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: ** BITBOND ** - Asking for Video Identification ?? on: September 07, 2016, 01:59:18 PM
Hi All

Had an email from Bitbond with link that i need to confirm ID via a video link.

I did not use the link provided in the email (in case it was a scam) but looged into the site and went to the identity page after logging in and it is asking for it.

BUT when i 'start' the process, it takes me to the window below and does NOTHING ??

I am running Windows 7 upto date and based in UK

Anyone else had this or advise ?

Cheers



 Huh

Yes, Bitbond now requires video identification for investors as well. This is to be in line with standards counteracting money laundering in Germany. It's mentioned in their newsletter.

My video identification went fine but im sure support will help you if the blue screen persists.
That is quite weird.If someone asks me to give video id,I would rather keep myself away from it.
they're requiring this such thing due too many fraud lending request so it's a win-win solution because there's nothing to lose and i can say that it's fair enough,they're requiring this also for the sake of their investors safety so nothing to be murmuring about
5913  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People hate Bitcoins? on: September 07, 2016, 01:55:46 PM
Hell the really do it they really hate it because they either has less knowledge about it or have they herd some rumers about it from media or friends

Yeah probably that would be the case.  We tend to hate someone when we do not know everything about them.  When we are not familiar with things we lack of interest.  Those people might not have tried to atleast read or see the actual thing bitcoin can make.

If we are not aware about something then how can we hate that thing? People hate it because they have lost their money in it in the past by investing at the wrong place.
well there's so many reason that could make people hating bitcoin,one reason just already mentioned above but there's also another for example people could possibly hating bitcoin because of its system that's decentralized or everything else,especially banker,that's quite sick
5914  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Steam accepting btc - will it affect the forum market? on: September 07, 2016, 12:26:55 PM
The bitcoin is growing and its good that steam is accepting it but I do not see any chances since than.
I honestly must say that the market will not change because the prices on here are still better than on steam itself so its still more attractable here.
for the sake of my safety and security on my account,i would prefer avoid any hacked keys or whatever else which just paid with illegal credit card or paypal for a little higher price,and i say that in the digital goods section,there's only certain popular games that's available for sell when by paying through steam you can choose whatever you want
5915  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Doubling Bitcoin? on: September 07, 2016, 12:23:24 PM
I'm sort of new to bitcoin, I've made a couple bucks already from visiting ad sites, doing faucets, etc, but is there any other way to earn easy cash? Anyone got any suggestions?
I am not sure on how to double your Bitcoin the only thing that I can come up with is to try and gamble with them.
Only then you can try to double them in a fast way if you manage to win.

But gambling s also an fastest way to loose your coins, as gambling never promises you the profits but if you go for trading then there is a chance that you can double it in long run.
well that's the risk,something that give you big will have a big risk so i think it's just fair enough,although i don't encourage people to do gambling but it's sure could be considered as an option,just in case if OP could manage to win as MaritiJames3 says

https://www.hackread.com/hacked-bitcointalk-forum-database-on-dark-web/
should i be worried about it and change my password or thats just some kind of a bs?
i think you are right because when i tried to acess the bitcoin froum site in my mobile browser then it was sometime opening and some time server error time out showing .
i think the admin of this forum were busy in the work of fixing the problem of data hack or other think si that it was happened tp acess this forum . it was all about 2-3hours ago


Same, i was trying to access this forum but  it could took longer times to load and it shows error and i saw this thread knowing that is been DDos  ans saying that our   account details have been compromised and  been sold to dark net which is  somehow  quite disturbing for me.
man,i guess if you can't access the forum or it's showing error "nginx" or the site just become too slow it's because of the forum just got too many traffic or i say it too crowded,and it's just a common thing on the popular site having this kind of problem

i don't know what that nginx is but it is probably some teouble with the database and the fact that it can't be accessed sometimes. and it can have many different types of problems from a server crash to overload and even DDoS which is happening in the last two days according to Theymos here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1609071.msg16159103#msg16159103
although i don't know why OP has brought this old news about the database hack up, it is so old!
well if theymos just stated that there's DDOS,so nothing to be worried about,it's just remind me few months ago that there's warning to changing password due to database leaked,so i conclude that the problem that occur to this forum for few days just a common problem so i think it'll be alright
5917  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is a good way to store money? on: September 07, 2016, 11:57:29 AM
Bitcoins can be a good way to store money but you can also lose allot of money becuase the price of the bitcoin is unstable so the price can drop allot and you will make allot of los.
and when the price rising you will make a profit,it's bitcoin's characteristic or behaviour to be so volatile but it's also could give you a benefits,it's just about how you use bitcoin,if the value of your wealth was the main priority then why saving in form of thing which is volatile?
5918  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Did anyone buy during $1200? on: September 07, 2016, 11:53:30 AM
I dont think there are allot of peopel who has bought bitcoins at that moment off course there where a couple of them stupid people but what if the price rises to 100000 each that would be very great,.
Why are you calling them stupid? I dont think it is a foolish to buy something promising like bitcoin anytime.It might be a bad decision but not the foolish one

Exactly, and no one knows what is the right time to buy, as if we buy at $600 hoping that price will rise but suddenly may be it can fall to $400 tomorrow, so that doesn't mean that we are stupid.
calling people stupid when buying at the current price is just not right,what if the one who buy at the current rate need bitcoin to buy something important then?even if you buy bitcoin when the price just $200 it still have the chance to be falling even less
5919  Economy / Exchanges / Re: btc rate sensitive site . on: September 07, 2016, 11:46:35 AM
price of bitcoin in every exchangers is different and it's depend on the market activities and the last deal/transaction affecting the current bitcoin price
and for the accuracy of the price i use coindesk because it's having a bitcoin price stats from various exchangers so you can get the average price
or just use preev,they're merging various price from various exchangers into one
