Is there an off-chance that your disk is full?

Go here: https://www.whatismyip.com/ . Note the IP adress. Fill it in here: http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ and set the port to 8333 You'll want to get a green flag.

Some routers you can set a static internal IP (sometimes called something like: set by MAC Adress etc.)

Do you build yourself? (git etc.)

Otherwise just install the latest binary the same way you installed 11.0.

any anti virus software?

How is the health of your hard drive?

You always can connect to a known good node using the addnode= command.

3 years... Time passes so fast.

Thanks for all the hard work, NF team!

I'm already in contact with support, but I'm wondering if other people experience Armory crashes too, shortly after "Organizing Blockchain" starts?

You can just set your node to use a different port. Just change the port to something else and use that until your ISP blocks it and just keep switching it.

IIRC, different ports than 8333 are not recommended though for nodes, as other clients will look on 8333.

Yes, however you probably will find that somebody else will have forwarded 8333 already.

If I remember correctly LB halted their service in Germany.

Anyone knows exactly why LBC halted service in Germany while continuing to operate elsewhere in the EU?

[...] The shop already has free WiFi available to its customers. [...]
It is not convenient to have every customer who wishes to pay with bitcoin to sign in to the shop's WiFi network. [...]

Out of curiosity, why not? Bitcoin users should realise that they need internet to pay in bitcoin*. If they don't have their own data plan and the shop provides free wifi to customers (which the people with paying bitcoin are too) anyway, how is it not convenient?

Joining an open network is a security / privacy concern.

* There are some wallet solutions that allow a tx to be transferred via bluetooth or NFC, but it obviously depends on the wallet in use.

Getting data from your locally stored blockchain (running bitcoind or bitcoin-qt) or the blockchain.info service?

Instead of pushing over and over, wouldn't it be better to let it drop from the mempool? That way you then can spend those coins using a proper fee.

can anyone tell me how i can change my local currency from USD tu Euro while using localtrader?

i have created a trade in germany and want to sell bitcoins for Euros, but i can't change the USD button to any other currency.

i am using the mycelium app with an android emulator (bluestacks) on my computer

Have you selected EUR as a currency in "Settings" for "Local currency"?

Valid points have been made. If you still want one you could try to contact, he offered the service at one point: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=61202

Bitcoin mining with GPUs is obsolete.

I doubt you'll find it in a shop in Singapore. https://www.buytrezor.com don't ship to your country? They do ship to Singapore however, so you could ship it to somebody you know there or the hotel you'll be staying at.

What is the minimum setup to run a full node on Linux ?

What is the minimal hardware I could use ?

I cannot use my laptop any more, no more drive space, too slow when I work and I have to turn it off at night.

Some people use a RPi (or similar spec'ed hardware) with an external harddrive. So much for minimum specs.

However the argument is, if you're actually helping the network with such a low spec computer, as it is slow with the tx forwarding (IIRC).
