61  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons why mass of shops will not go for Bitcoin next few months on: February 07, 2016, 07:54:14 PM
well you need much more than few month, for real adoption, you need 5-10 years, so sit down and watch, because it's not a thing that can happen overnight

another thing to add is that you can actually need to buy bitcoin, where fiat is earned directly, you don't need to buy it, this might seem not an obstacle but it's in realiy it's an huge one

I don't think price depend exclusively on this mass adoption, though.

There's already a signficant demand that tends to increase and hence make the price increase as well.

For me it's must being part of this revolution.
There is not much usability. But yet I believe it will come.

Uow, just take a deeper look at this forum and you'll find a thousand usabilities to it! Investment, buying stuff from people across the globe, borrow money, etc etc...

You aren't going to find a suitable script for a production server anywhere for a price like that.
If you can't afford to pay a dev team to make your casino you likely can't afford to bankroll it.

That's a good point, setting up a gambling site is not just about the script, but also about the management of house's bankroll. If you are considering such cheap scripts, you probably cannot afford to build a site like that in the first place...
64  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The real disastor that could happen (forking Bitcoin)... on: February 02, 2016, 10:50:54 AM
Worse still 25% of the initial network is 100% of the other forked network!

100% of small blockers! This is patently unfair, the 100% not being allowed to* carry on mining small blocks.

(*by not being allowed to, I mean "being allowed to but it's just not fair")
Depending on the time that the fork would occur (between difficulty adjustments) you could say that they aren't allowed to. The chain becomes rendered useless for a longer time because of the other majority. It is clear that we can't get everyone on board on a single proposal (and thus 100% consensus is impossible), but nobody sane would recommend a split. Essentially the people behind the fork do not care much about the whole industry and especially not about the users, they just want to take over.

If the majority do not adopt it, then it would be a useless movement and there would be no takeover of anything. Hold your horses, people! It's not such a doom.
65  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if there is nomore coins to mine? on: February 02, 2016, 10:47:37 AM
So I was watching videos on youtube and I came across to a video rearding the facts about bitcoin. I saw there that every halving the reward block is halve right? And so the rewards that the miner will get will decreased. My question i what will happen to the miners if tere will be no more coins to mine? Since there is only a limit on how many bitcokns can be produced, a time will vome that minin will put on stop. What will happen to the bitcoin price if then?

The miners still get the fees, so hopefully by then, the fees should be worth enough to make mining profitable
If the fees aren't enough for mining to be profitable, some miners will stop mining, raising the amount of blocks found by the leftover miners... that way the leftover miners find more blocks => more fees => profit Smiley

with the rising number of transactions and people adopting bitcoin, i strongly believe that will be the case, and all this machines already invested upon will then serve the transactions and make it a very resilient network.

67  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: February 02, 2016, 10:44:53 AM
I don't think traditional banks will disappear, because they could just adapt their business model to this new reality. What is going to disappear for sure is their abuse of power and the massacre they do with ordinary people on exorbitant interest rates...
68  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is DEAD... on: February 02, 2016, 10:42:29 AM
Reposting these BTC s dead articles achieves nothing but creates additional FUD. Just ignore them, dont let banker fucks have their satisfaction.

This is the best way to minimize those stupid obituaries. If we just ignore them, then we're making "less profitable" to publish this kind of article in the first place.
69  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Yet another possible solution for the blocksize debate. on: February 02, 2016, 10:40:49 AM
You want to include another parameter called the minimum block size? What is this supposed to do actually, prevent mining of empty blocks? What happens when the mempool becomes empty and there are not enough transactions to include into the block to reach the minimum? I don't see how this complication would help.

This sums up the flaws in this ideia. I'm not trying to spoil the debate though, I think we should analyse every possible idea and make sure we're covering every possibility.

and it will probably die 89 times more...
Bitcoin has died so many time but the truth is that it is still alive and kicking!

Just like Phoenix it rises from the ashes!!

73  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Litecoin will see 10$ and above 2016 on: January 11, 2016, 12:52:15 AM

i highly doubt that, can happen but still...



ON the other hand..I too think the odds of this are small ...say 5% or less..$40 LTC moon to BTC's 1000 usd price say....but it is POSSIBLE that if say BTC was to hit 2k a BTC someday.....at the 0.01 ratio LTC to BTC that more or less historically has been reached by LTC at least once in awhile....well that would mean $20 buck LTC say....as hard as it is to wrap my head around such...


on the other hand look at what has happened with BTC as an example below (randomly chose the month/days in July) Smiley

from this historical chart (link)

http://www.coindesk.com/price/

July 19th 2010   $    0.07

July 18th 2011   $   13.71

July 16th 2012   $     8.72

July 15th 2013   $    88.40

July 14th 2014   $   621.56

July 13th 2015   $   280.60

Jan   8th 2014    $  456.00   (now)


Again if LTC follows in such a 0.01 LTC to BTC ratio...well no issues....but I will be sad because I probably will have moved MOST of it to BTC by then (I mine) but still I think

there is a 50/50 chance of LTC going to the  moon when BTC does in my above guess however....spiking past that to 40 bucks or more in the above hope only 5% odds imho

anyway my guesses Smiley




I'm not sure about the 50/50 thing but agree with the rest of your argument.
74  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin is officially dead on: January 11, 2016, 12:51:24 AM
yes litecoin is dead thats why its price has doubled since the year began Roll Eyes

Yes. I do not why it is still the second largest digital coin. The market cap is still very high.
Yes you do, its network effect

There's nothing dead about it, then.
75  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best Altcoin to invest in for 2016 and WHY on: January 11, 2016, 12:48:40 AM

These threads are useless. Newbies beware.

Bagholders promoting whatever they got suckered into buying and scammy coins advertising.


that's it. close topic
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Honestly, which is better? Monero or Dash? on: January 11, 2016, 12:42:44 AM

Mixing in Monero is instantaneous.

Sure, there's a learning curve that goes with using the command line/terminal - but it's time well spent it if it saves you from having to wait hours every time you need to mix. And then you know how to use a command line/terminal!

Dash separated transaction mixing back in the summer of '14.

Initially it required mixing while sending, where you'd wait for others to mix and send.

Post-summer '14, it works with premixing the coins (when you don't want to transact) so that when you want to transact later => it's instant / you are sending pre-mixed funds. It's a nice workaround.


LOL the problem with your argument is that you assume everyone is going to premix what they want to send ahead of time.

We live in the year 2016 and time is money.

72 hours to mix 1000 dash through DARKSEND isn't very impressive when there are alternatives that take a second or a few seconds.

So if Dash only has this hype for anonymity, and Monero is best for that, we have a winner, don't we?
77  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin as a Gold Standard on: January 11, 2016, 12:23:45 AM
bitcoin already is..

you cant really buy an altcoin unless you buy bitcoin first.. so all alt valuations are based on bitcoin.. ultimately
(give or take a few rare instances where some alts can be bought direct via fiat)

In my country there are 2 exchanges that sell LTC, dash and doge directly in fiat...
78  Local / Português (Portuguese) / Re: Por que o BTC vai subir de preço se as altcoins se mostram opções viáveis? on: January 11, 2016, 12:20:07 AM
(...)
Também gostaria de saber, como faço pra descobrir isso? Só pesquisando uma por uma mesmo?

De modo geral sim, não achei um lugar onde compilam isso. Mas "regra do dedão": se for PoS e não for premine, é inflacionária, se for PoW é deflacionária (tem excessões, a DOGE é uma delas).

Saquei! Valeu! Vou ver se encontro uma lista por aí pra poder tomar cuidado e não entrar em furadas!!!
