6061  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin go $15000 before 2018?! on: December 07, 2017, 02:02:47 PM
The thing that we can't accurately speculate what's happening to the price gives me chills.
Today, BTC has exceeded the # 15000 mark! It's incredible but that's what's going on! I like having BTC and Altcoin
It grew from 14k-15.7k (at the moment) in just one day!
Astonishing and scary at the same time. It looks like a bubble.
6062  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Crypto prices in real-time web site on: December 07, 2017, 05:23:04 AM
I don't think 2 minutes is considered "real-time".
We like it as lightweight as it is which is preferred by users. Adding a repeated pattern as background makes the Page neat but will not make the site heavy.
And as a rush upgrade to the "User-friendly" UI, change the Fonts, and add favicom to the page. (I doesn't take more than 5minutes to do).
6063  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Trojan in Electrum 3.0.0 wallet? on: December 07, 2017, 05:03:03 AM
Guys, I saw a post regarding electrum having two websites.
These two:
if you downloaded your wallet from the fake one,  it might be the cause of this.
I'm not accusing the other domain or anything.

Can anyone shed some light please. <edit> Thanks for the info, pooya87.
6064  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Government put an hand to interfere the Cryptocurrency and tax us? on: December 07, 2017, 04:36:13 AM
To hell with the government, to hell with the bank, do not believe them. Bitcoin is our way to fight them, do not be afraid of what happens later, bitcoin will be a very valuable asset.
I'm afraid it's not going to happen with that kind of thinking.
How is this going to be a valuable asset if this stays the way this was forever?

There are too many ways to regulate this like:
  • The Government will act as the main wallet holder, the addresses will be issued to the holders (users/consumers/merchants) with licences at the same time.
At this point, us at the moment will either register their wallets for licences or stay under the radar.
Its our choice... at the moment in that point.
  • The Government makes their own Digital Currency as an alternative to fiat as the future of banking system. Making Bitcoin still active but with lower number of users.
Either way, they will make an action to whatever that will benefit their county.

6065  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you add your physical location to your payment address? on: December 07, 2017, 03:17:29 AM
For Services like Coins and Coinbase this should be mandatory in order to make the usability/microtransactions more acceptable by the mass.
For the current holders, it's not a current option but after maturity, being anonymous might be an issue to the authority.
6066  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Steam is no longer supporting Bitcoin on: December 07, 2017, 03:03:34 AM
They should (steam) at least change the the way they accept bitcoin.
They should develop an in-platform wallet that could be used by the user for purchasing their services. That way, there won't be any problems with refunds and (few from) transaction fees.
And is it final? Maybe they are open for suggestions.
6067  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcoin Ticker extension for Google Chrome on: December 06, 2017, 10:06:11 AM
The problem you said only occurred to me after the first time enabling the extension.
Now, it works normally after refresing a page although it got a limited options.
It must have:
Options on how often it will update the price.
Nicer Background and Logo or at least a User Customization setting.
6068  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Suggestions for an app? on: December 06, 2017, 06:30:51 AM
If it is for mobile, make a game. Rewards and Payments will be through bitcoin denominated in-game currency which can be purchased using the regular methods or the in-game bitcoin wallet address.
This will be maintream.
Be early or regret it later.
6069  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcoin Ticker extension for Google Chrome on: December 06, 2017, 03:41:36 AM
Such a great idea.
I will try this and monitor the performance (Hardware and Network) for  a few days. I will send my feedback later.

Honestly, It's a hassle for me to google search or login to tradings while browsing. This will do the trick.
6070  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: 3rd party bitcoin wallet which we can own the key on: December 06, 2017, 03:26:50 AM
As a newbie, you must rely on easy-access wallets that will handle the transactions for you, give you the recommended fee and hold your funds. Like coinbase or coins depending on your area.

But since you need the private key for safekeeping, you can use blockchain.info at the moment.

Learn everything you need and when you're confident with your knowledge, start using Electum Wallet.
6071  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Are Now Used in Crimes on: December 05, 2017, 10:10:11 AM
The authorities need to learn the blockchain technology and how Bitcoin works. Its a matter of proper and accurate Enforcement in order for them not to fear the currency and learn how Criminal Activities operate trades using Bitcoin.

Every Currency whether fiat or digital are susceptible to illegal activities.

In my country, they're kinda ignorant on how Drug Trades or Corruption were performed silently. Just because it's new to us at that time.
I hope it will settle next year since Bitcoin is all over the internet & news (not on free TV for now).
6072  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: McDonalds to accept Bitcoin by 2018 on: December 05, 2017, 09:40:04 AM
Ok, I see how they will do this but, 2018? really? It might be too early for that!
The way I'm seeing this is: McDonalds is risking it in order to take advantage of the price surge.

If this starts, majority of the users will change the way they look at Bitcoin... to better or worse, either way, things is will still be exciting for me.
6073  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [Youtube] Cryptocurrency Youtube Channel - Trying to grow - looking for tips! on: December 05, 2017, 04:48:24 AM
Since its kinda Hot Topic, you might get a lot of audiences if you're the first one to upload the topic. If I'm a Crypto enthusiast, I rather read articles than watch a video about it. It's up to you if you can take our interest.
In my experience, youtube videos that got the same topic as the others struggle from getting a lot of views unless you already had a lot of subscribers. Also adding too much ads especially in the middle of the video drives away potential subcribers.
You can also buy views if you want a boost. (
6074  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Linking fees to fiat? on: December 04, 2017, 06:57:43 AM
At this time, I bet it won't happen even if you got backed up by the media.

Money drives the world and will still be. Look at the Markets, fiat or Cryptos, they will be the same as always, and the price will make the transaction fees wilder than ever. Bitcoin is Decentralized and you can't do much about it.

At least spreading the word in this forum can make a change in the future when people had realized what they are into.

As for the OP, linking the fees to fiat directly is a terrible idea. However, there are clients that are acting as exchange and wallets that may set the payment for transaction in fiat even though the addresses are holding btc the whole time.
that's all.
6075  Economy / Invites & Accounts / Re: Buying FREEBITCO.IN Accounts !! on: December 02, 2017, 07:37:19 AM
Just FYI:
That Bonus will deplete with every free roll. The higher it is, more % will lose each rolls.

Example: (approximate)
+500BTC Bonus @ 60% "to the next" will be 10% "to the next"  after you claim your free roll. Upon Reaching 0%, the Bonus will drop from its level to the previous one.
+120BTC Bonus @ 60% "to the next" will be 32%.
+21BTC(The lowest 1st bonus) @ 60% "to the next" will be 57%.

You will lose more if you buy an account with 1k+ Bonus at a high price.
The bonus is not forever in that value.
6076  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Blockchain Based Video Games - We'd like your thoughts and feedback on: December 02, 2017, 06:49:39 AM
Correct me if I am wrong. A game that contains items that are owed by the user as "his" item (not by the game developers) and can RMT them?

The idea is great, the whole question is: will they play it just because of that feature?
They need a large community in order to succeed.
Some problems that might cause an issue:
  • Blockchain doesn't require a lot of Bandwith, online games does.
  • Players must not run a full node (if it reached as big as bitcoin's), well I guess it will be address based ownership.
  • Increasing security will cause a lot of movement delays, decreasing it will pose some threats. (seen it with some games)

[Addition]A Game Must-have (for me):
  • Gamers are meticulous with the Graphics as well as its Performance.
  • Games with good Physics are eyecatchers.
  • Good but not linear storyline.
  • Diverse theme, one theme will limit the market.

I'm looking forward to see one in the future.
6077  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Which name would you chose ? on: December 02, 2017, 06:09:38 AM
It will depend on the nationality of your target market.
The character combinations as well as the sound of the url can be differently viewed per person.

Choose BitRuby for it's the most neutral name among the list.
Plus you can use the gem's (Ruby) theme as a bonus.
6078  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why BTC value is growing day by day ? on: November 28, 2017, 08:26:12 AM
The answer always ends up with: "Too much demand against the limited supply"

You see, mining is designed to discover blocks every 10 minutes(Correct me if I am wrong). Whether the hashing power is low or high.
Now that there are too many people took interest to Bitcoin, whether they are investors, miners or traders, everything they do will make the price even more higher.

  • Investors take and Hold Bitcoins makes the supply deplete.
  • Traders make money from buying it during a slight fall and selling when see fit. But doing so, they always aim for the best price which makes more traders makes the market unpredictable in some degree, but making it stable at the same time.
  • With Today's Sky-high Hashrate, Miners, whenever they got rewarded with Bitcoins either keep it (which limits the supply even more) or Sell it. However, with the current hash rate, they must have invested a lot in not-so-cheap miners to acquire a considerable high hashrate to discover a block. So if they would sell their bitcoin, they will set the tag higher

In short, there's too much demand versus the limited stocks in the market.
6079  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Dogecoin in 2020, win or fail? on: November 11, 2017, 01:35:37 PM
"Dogecoin Believers" a funny title for a just-for-fun currency holder.
Honestly, I'm a fun person but I'm sure Dogecoin's value will not rise even after a decade.
Unless people will actually use it, for example: Trading Memes.

I'm still holding 100DOGE just in case.
6080  Other / Meta / Re: Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ on: November 11, 2017, 07:31:40 AM
...
Sure, feel free. Post the link to the thread and I'll add it to OP alongside other translations.

Not sure about the cut off though. There's a 60000 byte (not sure, theymos mentioned the limit some time ago) for posts so  it could be that Arabic characters are stored inefficiently so they fill up the limit in fewer actual characters.

∙ Is there a Filipino version of this Rules and Guideline thread in the Local Forum - Philippines?
  - If there's none, I will translate this during my free time.
...

Here's the Tagalog (Filipino) Version that I made and Posted in the Philippine Local Board: Unofficial Forum Rules & Guildelines (Tagalog Version)
If it's good enough for you, you can link it to the OP. (Guidelines for Threads are not included for now)
I will try to keep the Local Thread updated with the OP.
