6462  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The CEO of Bitcoin got arrested for money laundering!!! 100% not 'fake news'. on: February 22, 2018, 06:05:20 PM
This thread worries me but I'm not entirely sure why, it's one of the following:

- OP is a troll but others won't realise this because they're completely stupid and will think this is 'real' and that Bitcoin the cryptocurrency has a CEO
-OP is also completely stupid

I'm leaning towards the first one.

OP is a notorious troll and FUD spreader.  This is laughable!  Bitcoin is decentralized and THERE IS NO CEO.   Cheesy What a tool-shed!  The sad part is I'm pretty sure that is the OP's real mug-shot.

1) Do Your Homework
Always do your own homework and don't just take others words for it.
2) Proceed With Caution and Care
Risk is inherent to investment, and investors should keep in mind that digital currency is in a very early stage of development when compared to similar asset markets like the stock or bond markets.
3) Diversify
As an advisor this is my biggest rule.  If one is fully diversified they don't have too much more too worry about.  Never get in over your head on risky investments.
4) Keep Your Coins In Wallets
Always use paper wallets and hardware wallets like Trezor
5) Prepare For Volatility
This is a new Tech, tough time will be ahead.  Any phenomenon game change like this is set to have it's ups and down.  Give it time!

Bitcoin is a big deal to Asian countries for a number a reasons.  Japan's culture has taken it much better than most.

Updated to add an awesome new website I found to check for forked coins- http://www.findmycoins.ninja/
Wow, thanks for the website, didn't know it exist.
I have 4 electrum wallets and checking fork coins become tedious with dozens of forks happening in a short time.
Just checked I have $600 worth of fork coins in just hundreds of copying pasting.

Now to find the right wallet to claim them all.

Edit: The checker didn't support segwit yet, I can't search for fork coins using my segwit address Sad

Damn, good point.  Maybe it'll add it before long.

You can start by removing ConfirmTX. I'm not sure about you, but I've used them, nothing really happens. The owner connected last time on January and didn't post anything since November, the message displayed on the site about the last block being found is the same since months now and finally, multiple accusations about them in the ANN thread.

edit- thank you. I've used them but it's been a long time.  Good to know and list updated. Any others too add??
6468  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Best & Most Helpful Bitcoin Website! on: February 22, 2018, 06:16:32 AM
There's a whole lot of Bitcoin websites out there these days and it's hard to narrow down which are the best.  Below I am listing some of the best and most helpful Bitcoin pages that aren't as well know to the average "bitcoiner".  Please share if you've got any lesser known, but helpful sites!

1) http://thebitcoinpage.com/  ( Winner of best overall website ? )

2) https://www.forkexplorer.com/

3) https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@olsm/how-to-claim-bitcoin-diamond-bcd-super-bitcoin-sbtc-and-bitcoin-gold-btg /
 https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/beginners-guide-claiming-your-bitcoin-cash-and-selling-it/

4) https://99bitcoins.com/complete-guide-using-bitcoin-anonymously/
I think thebitcoinpage.com looks terrible, like something from the mid-1990s. Anyhow, your subject line mentions the 'best' site, whereas in your actual message, you seem to refer to niche sites.

IMO bitcoin.it and bitcoin.org are great places to find general information. I also like the block explorer at blockchain.info.

Edit: I'm only mentioning bitcoin-related sites because altcoins are off topic for this board.


Those pages are listed on thebitcoinpage.com as well.  It may look 1990's no doubt, but it's easy to read and covers almost any bitcoin topic you might need help with.

1) http://thebitcoinpage.com/ ( Winner of best overall website ? )

I beg to differ. The winner for the best overall website with "the best and most helpful Bitcoin pages" is http://Bitcointalk.org.

The real knowledge is gained right here, anyone else agree?

Bitcointalk.org is listed on thebitcoinpage.com.  Bitcointalk is great and I use it daily, but it's not the better of the two.  It doesn't have the wide ranging scope of areas that thebitcoinpage neatly provides.. and it's not just simply a chat forum.  Bitcointalk is great..but there is life outside it.  Also..95% of the users on here have no clue what they're talking about..so there's that too.

Yes it's possible, I've got one link below to a recent article that applies as well.  I'm not sure how much I believe that guy, that he knows all the biggest traders..but I am going to look in to him.

6472  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: KFC now accepts Bitcoin! on: February 22, 2018, 04:24:59 AM
Indeed, the company appears to be jumping on the publicity bandwagon surrounding cryptocurrencies. However, unlike some public-traded firms that have seen their stock prices soar after announcing some kind of tie-in with the tech, the move doesn't seem to have had much of an effect on the price for Yum! Brands, KFC's parent company.

In one post on Twitter, the rep managing the KFC Canada account suggested that the company may accept other cryptocurrencies as well.
6473  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Samsung is going to support bitcoin on: February 22, 2018, 04:19:04 AM
This is certainly not a surprise.  Bitcoin and cryptocurrency's in Japan are a big deal and Samsung is at the forefront of technology.  Samsung is a big player in the IoT things sector, and they've seen the like of Nvidia raking in the cash of the profits from surging demand in crypto mining hardware.  Samsung sells Appple products, let's not forget that..they are in the business of making money no matter what.  However in this case that is a great thing for bitcoin.
6474  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Advantages of bitcoin on: February 21, 2018, 10:48:14 PM
Some of the best would include:

Pseudo anonymous transactions.

No third parties are involved- this is all about decentralization.

Very low Transaction Fees
This was not so the case for a few months but thanks to the Lighting Network bitcoin fees are back to being quite low again.  The transaction time is also speeding up and we are just getting going with the lighting network.

Mobile Payments
Instant access to cash when the bank is closed or there are no ATM's near by is a big deal.  Being able to pay anyone all over the world at a moments notice is a huge thing.
6475  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin die, no more cryptos can alive. on: February 21, 2018, 10:10:46 PM
I first off suggest that no listen to the advice of OP who can barely muster decent English.  Bitcoin is king, and does reign supreme but Ethereum as a comparison is not a good one.  Ethereum is made to build apps and projects on it's smart contract platform while bitcoin was created to be a payments system.

There are other Alts that have nothing to do with Bitcoin or ETH.  Take for instance IOTA which is geared solely for those companies whom are in the Internet of Things sector ( a baby Goliath of a sector just getting started), or GameCredits for example which is geared simply for the gaming community.  There are Alts that will live on whether Bitcoin does or not ( I do believe Bitcoin will for the record).
6476  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: tips for begginers on: February 21, 2018, 09:56:28 PM
Here a tip I've shared before about emptying your paper wallets using your cell phone.
If anyone out there is curious about this process (which I recently just went through) to sell Bitcoin on your cell phone from a paper wallet -than this thread is for you. I’ll lay it out step by step -

1) You need to check and see if you have any forked coins (shitcoins) here- http://Forkexplorer.com

-If you plan to redeem those coins you can read about how to do so here:

Bitcoin Cash- https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/beginners-guide-claiming-your-bitcoin-cash-and-selling-it/

Bitcoin Gold- https://99bitcoins.com/how-to-claim-bitcoin-gold-btg-guide/

Bitcoin diamond/SuperBitcoin etc- https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@olsm/how-to-claim-bitcoin-diamond-bcd-super-bitcoin-sbtc-and-bitcoin-gold-btg

Now once you are ready to transfer your Bitcoin to an exchange to sell: 

2) Download Mycelium app

3) Once downloaded open app and click on “Coldstorage”
-scan private key QR code
-Make sure you click “SWEEP ALL FUNDS”- THIS IS VITAL !!!
-type in the wallet’s public address in which you wish to transfer bitcoin in order to sell
-Confirm it hits your new address and you’re ready to sell

4) Void paper wallet-No reason to use again & remember Satoshi said to never use a private key twice!
6477  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin saved my year on: February 21, 2018, 09:54:45 PM
It is honestly kind of sad that BTC saved your year.  You go lucky to say the least.  The past couple of years have been tremendous for the stock markets of the world, especially the US stock market.  No one should be buying enough bitcoin that it saved their years if they are broke.  This is really a foolish financial move/mistake.  Yes, it did work out for the OP however it was foolish.  You really should have had your money is a safer environment like the US stock market.
6478  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I'm so happy this is happening! on: February 21, 2018, 09:45:27 PM
The truth of the matter is you're exactly right.  I really have grown tired myself of seeing so many fair weather fans around here that have absolutely no idea what they're doing.  So many here have no idea what bitcoin is really all about.  Most here just assume it's like a stock or like investment.  People don't understand it's actually a payment system first and foremost.  I bet 75% of the users here would say that Bitcoin and Ripple are basically the same thing ( obviously having no idea about decentralization and non-decentralization..of course ).  I plead to people here to do your homework, engage in meaningful discussion..and follow the right people.  Don't follow "Crypto-NickDLick" on youtube instead follow someone like Andreas Antonopoulos.  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJWCJCWOxBYSi5DhCieLOLQ

Exactly!  If I had your skills I'd be trying to make everything ( Vader/storm-trooper helmet..AT-AT Walker perhaps?! )

I also vote yes for platinum card.
