6081  Economy / Economics / Re: Best time to hold other currencies aside from bitcoin on: July 25, 2016, 01:19:56 PM
Aside from bitcoin being the center of attention we must also include other cryptocurrency that the virtual economy has to offer.
Bitcoin before from less a dollar has shown a tremendous increase in price that goes up to 700$.

That potential is also potent to other currency. So it is best if we will not only focus on bitcoin but rather the whole cryptocurrency economy.
yes, it's been started many other digital currencies are emerging. movement of altcoin faster and unpredictable. we can take advantage of this. look for other alternatives and too focused on bitcoin is a regret.
not yet till those developers really serious on their project not just let it become just a trading tools nor being developed to be the real currency which being used widely,most of altcoin now just being used to gather funds through ICO and then become a trading tools

The file is not available as it has expire, probably because of how old it is. I will look into using a split key vanity method but I will probably end up purchasing a vps for a month to generate the addresses I need. Thanks for suggesting the app.

You do know vanitygen runs on both linux and windows, it has binary versions for windows available, so you can basically run it on any pc you want... If you don't own a pc or laptop running windows or linux yourself, you must have parents/siblings/friends that own a normal desktop pc, or am i missing something here?

I'm pretty sure that generating a vanity address on an android phone would be bad for your cpu and drain your battery in no-time.


or even he can just get a free rdp anywhere as long it's free and remote it from his phone and finally he could generate it,there's so many way to generate an address,just don't expect too much from a phone which designed only for small task
6083  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin transactions - Slow OR Fast on: July 25, 2016, 11:57:19 AM
is it possible that bitcoin will be accepted in local stores, shops etc. since transactions are to slow and customers have to wait until their transactions are verified. And nobody wants to wait.
 Can transactions be seeded up to save customers time or any other way to use bitcoin  at local stores.
Of course yes, bitcoin can be accepted in local stores even if it is need much time until every local stores accept it. And The solution for low transaction is using high fees when costumers makes payment on local stores. It will save costumers time.
high fees won't affect that much compared to normal fees,still being included in the same block and need to wait till the block been solved,so it's not going to success,the only way is enabling 0 confirmation transaction or just wait it and hoping the transaction confirmed in few minutes not hours
6084  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People hate Bitcoins? on: July 25, 2016, 11:49:55 AM
Maybe it's not that they hate bitcoin. Maybe they hate the electric current it will cost.
Your statement is right if you do hardware mining in your home.
But if you earning your bitcoin with the other way , it doesn't matter about electric cost
hating bitcoin and its system because of the electricity cost of mining,it doesn't make sense,you're not forced to do this either,keep mining if you can afford if not then stop,and if you're not talking about mining,bitcoin don't took your electricity more than like you're reading your timeline on facebook
6085  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin transactions - Slow OR Fast on: July 25, 2016, 11:44:18 AM
just make the merchant allowing 0 confirmation transaction,as the sender sending the current money in front of merchant and being monitored by the merchant himself,i think it's fine,just need to make sure if there's nothing suspicious activities on the sender's address and all funds are already confirmed
6086  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Vanitygen on: July 25, 2016, 11:41:17 AM
i think generating an address with speficic name until 5 sensitive letters on android would take an age,and so far no app for android to generate an address and generating using browser really not encouraged,but hey you can just hire someone to generate an address for you,and the one who's already trusted on this forum is shorena if i'm not mistaken

edit: seems cpfreeplz just found an app but don't sure it's working because it was last updated few years ago
6087  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Halving event: expectation vs. reality on: July 25, 2016, 11:36:37 AM
Curious about how the price will behave in the next months.

I think the price will trade between $600 and $800 in the next few months, then it will rise to $900.

Looks like a good prediction to me especially the first part. I don't know about $900 in the future because it depends on how many new people will be introduced to Bitcoin, so the price might be much higher I think and this will not be a bubble.
hmm if that will be true then its sure to make all bitcoiners happy Cheesy but i fear that after halving many people started selling their coins they were holding from very long so it may effect to the price to drag it down!
well halving just done few weeks ago and almost a month maybe, no mas selling at all, and the price is stable,don't need to worry about,the halving phase just passed and now awaiting for normal price peak just as usually
6088  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paypal & Bitcoin on: July 22, 2016, 06:21:55 AM
i don't think they are going to embrace bitcoin this soon, they may be scared of being removed from the scene and lose their position if bitcoin becomes popular so they may want a piece of the action. but it is unlikely that they do it at this point.
sure,they seems just doing cooperation with coinbase nor with bitcoin,and bitcoin have nothing to do with it,just a business relation between 2 companies so couldn't say paypal fully accept bitcoin to be part of them
maybe next time they will but they need to learn deeply about bitcoin first and prevent any kind of unnecessary things
6089  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase now supports Etherium; Is this a threat to Bitcoin dominance on: July 22, 2016, 06:16:17 AM
i think it's not going to be a threat for bitcoin,ethereum accepted in coinbase is just a small thing for bitcoin but big thing for their community,however just see after ethereum had been released,after few weeks, the price of bitcoin rising means demand increased,nothing to be worried about
6090  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is there a way to block my wallet and prevent any withdrawal for a month? on: July 22, 2016, 06:12:37 AM
told your trusted friend to keep your privkey and encrypt it while you delete your privkey from your wallet,this is quite risky but effective just the same as another method already mentioned above,just the important thing thing is make sure your friend won't lost the privkey
6091  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: Running a faucet - is it worth it right now? on: July 22, 2016, 06:08:22 AM

So I've been visiting faucets for a while now as well as reading up on the types of investment you can do with/involving bitcoin, and a commonly suggested idea is to run your own faucet - get a cheap domain name, grab a script off of FaucetBOX, and away you go. I'm not going to lie - this type of project does sound interesting to me, as I think learning the various aspects of running a faucet would be a fun sideline - not to mention the idea of making some money. However, in this day and age, where we've got thousands and thousands of the damn things, is it really worth the time and money investment? Is it too much work getting a sufficient amount of traffic to your site, with the countless other competitor sites that already have people visiting them?

Furthermore, as an additional question, what sort of initial investment do you need to actually pay out to people? Hosting fees, domain name rental, FaucetBOX fees etc etc are easy to work out the extent of, but I haven't been able to find out how much money people put aside for funding the faucet itself.
No! A simple word, "NO!" Faucet is not worth the effort. You buy a domain, spend days designing it, waste all your money on its security and bankroll and try to advertise it. In 2 months, you make a successful faucet. You get 10 users. They get 500satoshi every 10 minutes. They claim 5 times. They  get bored and leave. Your site is dropped and lost. You cry. Your efforts are in vain. ~ Story of me, a faucet owner
cheap domain is enough how about $1 .xyz extension domain? does it really matter to your wallet?

spend days designing it

OP stated that he's using faucetbox script and it'd took only 15 minutes to set up for an expert
waste all your money on its security
if u're using faucetbox script,you have anything to do with security
You get 10 users. They get 500satoshi every 10 minutes. They claim 5 times. They  get bored and leave
after some of them leave,new faucet hunters will be comin' as long the site keep paying,that's how the cycle
6092  Economy / Exchanges / Re: E-coin and others offer cards working with Paypal, but is not agains Paypal Tos? on: July 21, 2016, 11:45:09 PM
I haven't tried withdrawing to bitcoin debit card i got from cryptopay.me from paypal as paypal don't have withdraw option for our country. But talking about spending with credit card i have attached that card with paypal and i can easily buy anything using bitcoin via that card from paypal. I have done several buys with it without any problem, paypal TOS i think still don't cover bitcoin debit cards. So there is no any actual policy regarding these debit cards.
i could say when you load your bitcoin debit card actually it's the same as you're exchanging your bitcoin to fiat,and it don't have any relation anymore with bitcoin,so it's not against paypal TOS,just like paypal allowing any kind of virtual credit cards
6093  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paypal & Bitcoin on: July 21, 2016, 11:32:32 PM
If you want to listen to me you should all use the paypal method becausse the btcoin paying method is not secured enough and there are always people who want to steal your coins,
so does with paypal,why did you think paypal is that secure? when so many accounts getting hacked daily and being used for illegal activities or got used by hacker
when your detail got phished for once you'll end,your account will be misused,and it took so damn much time to recover it back
and for transaction,keep in mind that paypal could be charged back within certain period
6094  Other / Off-topic / Re: How kids can "earn" Bitcoin ? on: July 21, 2016, 11:26:54 PM
Faucets are a great way to start, but it won't earn them much and it'll become pretty boring. Provided they don't spam and actually post meaningfully, they can earn quite a bit for their posts after the Member rank, and they'll earn a bit each month for whatever they want. Mining is also fun to teach them, maybe gift them a S3 or S5 and teach them how to use it; they're pretty interesting.
why did you reccommend them (kids) to get into this forum,or you just wanna make this forum get worse by encouraging so many kids around 10 years old to play here,and mining need an advanced skill on IT,if you're talking about teenage it's maybe make sense but we're discussing about kids
6095  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Help a newbie out please on: July 21, 2016, 03:13:30 PM
Are you joking us? How could you earn for just affialiating in casino? Do you think we will believe your fantasy there? Even great experienced guy here cannot assured that they can get 10 btc a month and for your thoughs and affiliating well i dont really believe That you earn a huge money in your doings.

And if you want us to believe you use your main account and post your proofs here so we can people can advice you clearly if your stating true facts around here but if You are just been here to troll well stop it because no one really believes you.
well that's hard to be believed indeed,affiliate only gives dust sometimes,10 bitcoin per month is just too much but still have the possibility to be earned through affiliate
in other side,if OP really don't need money anymore(too rich) and having that much bitcoin,just save it for future purpose but fluctuation would bother you,if you wanna hold the value,simply convert it to fiat and save to your bank account
6096  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: From UK, Withdrawing a LOT of bitcoin - Advice on: July 21, 2016, 03:07:47 PM
maybe using verified bitcoin debit card which has been increased the limit by verifying it,withdrawn your money periodically so it'll not exceed the daily withdrawal limit,seems complicated indeed,but i think it's just another good idea to prevent from getting closed down your bank account
6097  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Cloud Mining doubts on: July 21, 2016, 08:44:38 AM
First you said you read many topics in this forum about cloudmining and still you want to invest into them?
I am sure you don't aware of reality of cloudmining sites. you are pretty much loosing your money in a scam site.
I have used some cloudmining sites my self and got scammed and about the rest sites I read reviews and found all cloudmining sites are potentially scammers.
like hashocean, cloudmining.website. and all.

if you have money and want to invest them then find a better source to invest but don't loose them in cloudmining.
you can't generalize like that,some cloudmining also have legit service but very few,even you really not encouraged to put all of your trust to some of legit cloud mining site because they still have the potential to turn and scamming people,but just keep in mind that majority of cloud mining is a ponzi,so if you really don't want to lose some money,so don't invest
just see this : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=878387.0 hope you understand
6098  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins is indestructible on: July 21, 2016, 08:34:12 AM
the method which mentioned in the article above is not literally destroying bitcoin,it's just make the bitcoin have no owners and the bitcoin is still exist,
even though the purpose is almost the same,to make bitcoin lost,but it's still slightly different
the article creator should being honest when writing

just wanna let you know that the new blockchain.info's wallet interface is just more complicated than the older,you need more effort to operate it,i just regret to update my wallet to the newest,but unfortunately can't get back to the older wallet interface
and the wallet activities menu is so damn confusing me,to check your specific transaction details you even need to click on "verify on blockchain" menu first
6100  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Allowing merging of banks and bitcoin is bad for us on: July 21, 2016, 08:16:46 AM
https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoin-vs-banks-a-blockchain-without/

In this article i have read an very alarming issue about banks and how it will affect bitcoins, I will qoute it:

"history has shown that banks are prone to massive failures during economic crises; arguably, the banks themselves are the cause of the crises. In these failures, people lose all their savings, their livelihoods. Such calamities cannot be prevented by a simple blockchain adoption. Furthermore, that strong relationship between banks and government ensures that banks will be bailed out without being held accountable for their actions. Therefore, the economy is thrown into an endless cycle of economic hardship."

So if there is a votation say no to banks and bitcoin merging.


i think the effect is different in every bitcoin users. because all of us have a different ways in using bitcoin.
it is good for those who use bitcoin legal ways and bad for those in the deep web and involved in illegal trade. Cheesy

Well lets just presuppose that you are right. But if we cannot stop the culture of corruption and financial greediness and financial slavery bitcoin will lose its essence. I am not against the government since they can help regulate bitcoins and stop illegal activities. But banking system is full of selfish motives if they will also rule bitcoin then we will no longer enjoy the benefits we enjoy with bitcoins at this moment.
sure bank is bad,bank exist to make poor people getting more poor and the rich become richer,just see the way they're lending money which really limit the value for the poor and the interest is so damn big,although bitcoin was created to be opposite and against bank,no way we're allowing bitcoin to merge with bank
