Is Dogecoin a blockchain protocol or cryptocurrency that's on an already existing blockchain network?
I know that Dogecoin is based of Luckycoin which in turn is based of Litecoin.
Dogecoins can be released through mining, much like Bitcoins, Ethereum, Litecions that have their own blockchain protocols.
We can say it's both. Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency who run in his own blockchain. As you can see in this site doge coin have his own chain https://dogechain.info/ and if you want to use it as a currency you can use a doge online wallet, or download the doge core from https://dogecoin.com/Doge, LTC, ETH are a criptocurrency who born from the bitcoin core with some modifications, but each one have their own blockchain.

This is a fun site about the crypto world and also a nice way to learn most of the basics. https://deadcoins.com/Please spend some time and find out why all of those coins died. wow, great site. I didn't know the list was that big. and it's kind of sad because those coins just give bad reputation to the crypto world. Each one of those mean people trying to trust and getting scammed. I Think the next step will be to make the site deadico.com Thanks for share it, i will spend some time learning about those coins because knowledge is the best way to avoid get scammed.

I am new to bitcoin programming. I am using Java Script and need pointers to help me develop code for following: - Create a bitcoin address - Send bitcoin from one account to another - Get balance for a bitcoin account.
I will really appreciate any help or any pointers in this regard.
Jessica
Hello Jessica, i'm a bitcoin coder, i have work in some big projects and learned a lot on the way. What you want to do could be done by 2 ways. 1.-Get an API from a service who rune a bitcoin node, i'm not sure but i think blockchain.info have an API. That wayyou will be able to do those 3 things 2.-(The pro way) install bitcoin core and use a wrapper to call core commands from JS. Look at this nice tool, for sure will help you https://www.npmjs.com/package/bitcoin-coreWith this tool and JS you can make calls like client.createRawTransaction([{ txid: '1eb590cd06127f78bf38ab4140c4cdce56ad9eb8886999eb898ddf4d3b28a91d', vout: 0 }], { 'mgnucj8nYqdrPFh2JfZSB1NmUThUGnmsqe': 0.13 }); client.sendMany('test1', { mjSk1Ny9spzU2fouzYgLqGUD8U41iR35QN: 0.1, mgnucj8nYqdrPFh2JfZSB1NmUThUGnmsqe: 0.2 }, 6, 'Example Transaction'); client.sendToAddress('mmXgiR6KAhZCyQ8ndr2BCfEq1wNG2UnyG6', 0.1, 'sendtoaddress example', 'Nemo From Example.com');
const balance = await new Client().getBalance('*', 0);
Hope that info helps and have a happy coding Jessica

I want the price of bitcoin to be stable! Not a sudden increase! Anything upward is worth more, but not so sudden!
But that would be boring, i think the best part of bitcoin and alts market is the volatility. Other way, where we will see the +1000% in the past 24h? cryptos give us that chance, but at end big risk mean big profit or big lost, as we say in gambling, is the go big or go home. Getting back to the topic, btc could reach $7000 at any time, we only need to see some big whales on the market, some $millions will move the markets for sure.

Personally i don't like much the song, but is a nice way to promote bitcoin, great job there. I have listen some bitcoin related songs in the past and as i say, is one of the best ways to promote it. Hope to see soon a music band called bitcoin making songs about all this crypto world.

I mean Why bitcoin? Why waste huge energy in mining. As everyone know bitcoin is useless in terms of usability. My question to bitcointalk users :
Is this possible that any altcoin become no 1 on coinmarketcap and bitcoin disappeare
I think this can be possible, what you think so comment below...
We have see in the past coins who worth more than bitcoin, much more to be exact... lets remember when zcash open his market, if i'm not wrong each zcash worth close to 3000 bitcoins, and this was because there was only a small amount of zcash coins. But this doesn't mean bitcoin would disappear. Would be hard to see an alts market without bitcoin for one simple reason. Alts price are based in bitcoin and not in usd, that's why bitcoin is the sould of those markets, but if for some reason bitcoin disappear some day, the alts market will have to move their prices to other coins or direct to dollars, just like bitcoin do.

The cryptocurrency market is the excessive volatility. The prices of cryptocurrencies on exchange platforms rise and fall dramatically over a short period of time. So is it a good timing to buy altcoins?
I nice move and what i have done before is to keep an eye in those crazy markets. once you see a coin on a crazy bump then join it. and when you see the fall coming then get out. For example if you see a coin in +50% in the past hour then buy, and don't get your eyes away from it. lets supose it goes to +200% then start falling, when you see it on +150% you lose some profit, but at the same time you still up. could be a better profit if you sold at +200% but at least you end with profit. This move take less than 2 hours, is a fast wave to ride

As long as I live live I will not sell my Alts at a loss. It is a shame that Bitches are selling: These bitches can’t see 2 years from NOW: Booming! I primarily hold Cardano!
Just keep holding them, sell them now isn't a wise move, but we know how bitcoin rolls, it will hit the moon in some point, and will take all the alts in that rocket. So, just keep holding them, is a waste to buy them high and sell them low, and if you will takethem to the graveyard then don't forget to print those QR and hold them in the tomb

Why aren't the obvious scammers banned from this forum? I was reading through scam accusations and have come across a lot of serious cases. For example this user is a scammer that stole 20 btc https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=358020I would consider these type of people much more harmful than someone that plagiarizes. Some years ago i do the same question to theymos, and he told me they never delete the frauds to save the evidence, other way of a person proceed with the legal way they will not have the right evidence. People in the forum is really smart and the scammers who have success are a real small amount. So is up to each one to avoid those traps.

You should come to Mexico. Depends on what you really want to do or to be, but Mexico have it all. If you like the beach then you should give it a try to Cancun with his clear and chill sea, other way if you like the surfing then you can go to zipolite. Other nice places in Mexico are the "Grutas de cacahuamilpa" or some crazy towns like taxco. Just take a look on maps to those places. By the way, Mexico is a cheap place, you can get a beer and food for $2 so, is cheap and is a piece of paradise.

Looking at how BTC is and its ability to increase, I have seen people posting all all over the forum that can I buy now, is this the right time to buy and many more. To me I think every time is the right and best time to buy BTC so we should go on and buy any amount we want to and stop all those post because when you buy now there will surely be a time to come where it will increase in price for you to enjoy it. We can buy and sell anytime and anytime is the best time. What do you think guys? Any suggestions?
There is only one basic rule to end with profit with trading, Buy low and sell high, that's it. As you say every time is a good time to buy and sell, but the thing here is the time you will hold them. For example, those ones who buy it at $20k on December now have a lost close to 75%, they can panic and accept the lose, or hold them and wait it reach the $50k... maybe they will have to hold them for years, but at end they will double the invest if they are patience.

First of all, congrats, you are on the right place to avoid getting scammed. I have recently bought $100 bitcoins (the guy that helped me said this was the minimum) and added them to my Blockchain Wallet.
This is a lie, you can but $0.1 if you want, there is not minimum. Now, 48 hrs later, I was paid something like $920 into my Blockchain wallet but it says it is Non-Spendable.
This is weird, maybe you have to wait a couple of confirmations, but should be spendable Now, this guy that helped me says I must add ANOTHER $300 to the wallet before that $920 becomes Spendable.
This mother fucker is trying to scam you. There are 2 options, or he have access to your blockchain wallet, or he have a backup from your private key. So... what to do now. Open a new wallet, and move your founds there. Never give access to no one to that wallet and hold your bitcoins in your hands. If you need some support to do this i could help you, just send me a personal message. By the way, move fast before he takes your money, but let him think you will depo more

Is the Bitpay bitcore node&libs still supported? They look pretty much dead on github although I could start and sync mainnet&testnet nodes. Does anyone know why did they abandon the project? (possibly by keeping following versions private)
Also does anyone know of a node implementation that has similar features to bitcore, i.e. I am most interested in being able to query it for all the transactions to or from an address.
Is a bad idea to work with a 3rd party node, i would recommend you to install your own node. as you can see in the top of this site there is a link to download it ( https://bitcoin.org/en/download ) isn't easy to work with your own node, but once you get familiarized with the commands and download those +200Gb you will be able to do anything you want. You can start learning about bitcoin-cli commands to work with your node. Good luck.

Hi, I just wanted to know what your habits on this forum are - there are so many posts that I feel one can easily get lost. How do you consult posts on a regular basis?
Hey. I think the best asset you can use is patience. You will discover that the forum is a really huge place, so let yourself discover it step by step. There are many boards in here, and all depends on what are you interested in. As said, I seconded the piece of advice of reading Meta from time to time for, in there, you will be able to understand what are the concerns about the forums and the related policies discussions necessary to taking care of the actual state of things in here. Besides, you have some other amazing boards, like the tech discussions ones, where you will learn a lot about the crypto ecosystem. But be patient. This is the golden rule.

My belief is we shouldn't sacrifice the opportunity of a good newbie (who actually want to be a member of this wonderful forum) who creates constructive posts with the aid of url for the actions of spammers who do always what they normally do with or without ristrictions. Because then they(spammers) moves to buy copper membership with few bucks and do their works from where they stopped.
That`s why I`ve suggested the 1 merit to become JR and newbies being unable to post any sort of links. "Good newbies", as you said, should probably be able to achieve this position in no time without the need of using links. Anyway, any pishing or malicious link, no matter the rank, should mean permaban.

Ban posters from Indonesia, Nigeria, Philippines, and Venezuela
Ban every user with this name: "Dig Bicks", immediately. It will be awesome for the forum. Besides, at least one merit to become JR and to be a member to be able to post in the serious discussion.

I tried asking questions on the topic thread but it seems closed, e.g. no Reply button.
1. If another user has some signatures is there a way to see how much the user has earned from the sigs?
2. Are higher ranked users, Legendary, Full Member, Member, paid different rates for carrying the sigs?
3. If a user ignored the May 24, 2015 direction to change his password, had a higher than Jr. Member status, and had his username hijacked, and the hijacked username now has a string of sigs, and the ethernet address posted shows large amounts of eth moving through, is there anything the real owner of the username need to worry about? If he's in another time zone on another continent will that disrupt my sleep or would that be something to do with the large amounts of eth moving through?
soy39 (the true soy)
Maybe you can move the thread to the Beginners & Help board or just use the search button. Signatures are a public thing and all are different, each one has different rewards, so just try and search for information by yourself.

Ok so the merit thing was a bad idea, I get it. But if you cut out the merit part, it is a good idea! Pay fee>get tokens>spread your ico announcement>additionally reward users with tokens. Bitcointalk get a piece of the pie too. So everyone wins and the scammers/spammers stay away because they know their shitico is going to get identified as scam sooner or later and they won't want to pay the fee > Less spamming campaigns on Bitcointalk.
How is this a bad idea?
From my perspective, this is still a bad idea. There is no reason for the forum being involved with shitty icos. One thing is to be a free site, where anyone can be allowed to spread any project and another -and very different one- is to receive some shitty icons as a result. It implies a way of being involved that is unnecessary. Do not misunderstood me, I get why are you saying that, but this is against the spirit of the forum. It is very different to be "free" than to be " a part of" something.

Could be solved by: - You need to be JR member to post a link. - One merit (at least) to become JR, as proposed before. - If you want to post a link being a newbie, then purchase a copper.

A merit is a way of telling someone else: "Hey, dude, well done, good work", always related to the post quality. We don`t need merit to acquire an economic view, for they are already being sold in the underground market here. Merit should be restricted to the people who are actually concern about the forum, the quality and about making some good contributions. This is not economical, but "emotional" somehow. So, no, of course, no. It would be against the merit system spirit which is to encourage the people to become someone of value in here by a good posting behaviour, not an economical reward.
