7121  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is there any minimum amount of budget which should be paid in btc campaigns ? on: April 23, 2021, 06:31:43 AM
but still disallow spam, else you'll get in trouble.
This is usually not the case, except in extreme cases such as Yobit campaign, in other cases, managers would get off without paying more attention to the quality of posts their participants make and also in what thread.
Managers and companies have the freedom to set their rules and guidelines, with some forum guides; dictating what thread fits where etc.

That's correct, it's usually not the case. But with low pay the campaign may not attract quality posters and since the expectations will be kinda low, this can happen. So a warning on the matter won't hurt, especially if the campaign manager would be somebody (inexperienced) from within the team, to save more money.

It is interesting that Thodex CEO Faruk Fatih Özer left the country last night and he deleted all his social media accounts.

Yeah, he may or may not restart the business elsewhere. However, it looks bad; I would not have too many expectations.
Indeed, not your keys, not your coins.
7123  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is there any minimum amount of budget which should be paid in btc campaigns ? on: April 22, 2021, 02:19:51 PM
For example, if anyone start a bitcoin campaign by offering only $10 or $ 5 per week or even less, is it allowed ?

It is allowed, just be careful about the payments since if you pay bigger tx fees than the actual "wages", some may get angry  Wink
Usually for low amount/pay, the altcoins are chosen because it's cheaper to send.
So my advice is to either pay altcoins, either pay less often. However, use escrow.

Of course, you'll have to not have too much expectations in quality, but still disallow spam, else you'll get in trouble.
7124  Economy / Economics / Re: How is it supposed to be alt coin season after bitcoin falls? on: April 22, 2021, 02:14:04 PM
We cannot tell when this season happen but it could start tomorrow or next following days but even if the market is now at unknown state

Altcoin season usually starts after Bitcoin investors are on profit. And that's already done.
So I also agree that the altcoin season may have been already in progress. The proper, solid, valuable altcoins did increase in valuation.
There also was the DeFi craze, there's also the NFT craze, what else you expect? Not all shitcoins will rise.
If you look at charts for last couple of months for Ethereum, Monero, Litecoin and many others, you'll see that the market is far from "unknown state".

7125  Economy / Speculation / Re: why bitcoin is falling? on: April 22, 2021, 01:57:37 PM
anybody know why bitcoin is falling Roll Eyes

Since in the virtual space there's no gravity, Bitcoin cannot be falling.
However, if you are asking why the hash rate has fallen "lately", that's because accidents in Chinese coal mines, resulting in power outage and mining plants being shut down (it'll get better in some weeks).
If you are asking about price, I think hat it's a manipulation attempt tied to the fact the hash rate has dropped, causing network congestion and high transaction costs.
7126  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin high fees on: April 22, 2021, 12:34:32 PM
This might be transactions from exchanges or going to exchanges, however, why the hurry?
Exchanges don't lose anything when they use overkilling transaction fee. Why they don't lose anything? They always pass the transaction fee to the customers that is hidden in the withdrawal fee.

Actually they do lose profit. The withdrawal fees were always big, even when the exchanges didn't pay these huge tx fees. This means that the difference was going to their pockets. Now that difference is much smaller.


This might be transactions from exchanges or going to exchanges, however, why the hurry?

It's because the services try hard to avoid a transaction taking too long to confirm.
A tx that doesn't confirm in a matter of hours means possibly unhappy customer, which then may cost the exchange support time and the customer, especially if he doesn't know much about Bitcoin, may leave for another platform.
I don't know what would happen if a tx doesn't confirm at all; I would expect that some platforms may not even have that part properly coded in, resulting in even more support time.
7127  Other / Off-topic / Re: blockchain flaw - can't function when sovereign firewalls break the internet on: April 22, 2021, 12:26:17 PM
Blockchain is not a reliable store of value when politicians own the world wide kill switch. That is the bottom line.

The air you breathe may also be no longer reliable when the politicians press the wrong switch. Just my 2 satoshi.
7128  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Is the newest of Electrum or Ledger Live the best for use with hardware wallets? on: April 22, 2021, 12:21:29 PM
Now which one would you personally recommend a user that has been using Bitcoin like me that has been sending Bitcoin using Electrum infrequently for about 2-3 years-ish I think lol.

I would still recommend Electrum, but with a note: before every use, go to electrum.org (remember and enter the name, don't search) and check if there's any critical update.
If there's nothing critical, don't bother much, since especially the new changes are more related to Lighning Network (LN) you don't use.
Still, now and then when you have, it may worth downloading the latest version, verify it (!), and run it on testnet (with free coins) to "keep in touch".

“Trampoline routing only works with trampoline nodes.

This is LN related; you should not worry about it for now.
7129  Local / Altcoins (Monede Alternative) / Re: Care este valoarea unei criptomonede înainte de primul commit pe Blockchain?!! on: April 22, 2021, 10:18:08 AM
gasisem acum vreo 2 luni o aplicatie deci functiona perfect aveau si varianta demonstrativa o incercasem cred ca m-am jucat pe ea vreo 2 saptamani pana au disparut cei ce o vindeau parca pe o adresa de i2p  era ca ma documentez de ceva timp si era destul de scumpa cam 5000€ convertiti in Bitcoin Bine ca acceptau si plata cu Escrow eu de atunci am inceput cu crypto si sa fac documentare... vroiam sa incep un business in domeniul asta dar bariera a fost cea financiara si nimeni dintre cunoscuti nu accepta sa se bage.

Sa inteleg ca vrei sa-ti faci un token propriu?!

Daca doar doresti sa creezi un token, adica ceva care functioneaza fara blockchain propriu, folosind contra cost alt blockchain, nu ar trebui sa ai nevoie de o aplicatie care face asta.
Adica pe WAVES te costa aprox 1 WAVES (~11.5 EUR) sa creezi tokenul tau (wallet-ul s-a schimbat de cand l-am folosit eu, dar aici este tutorial). Probabil pe Ethereum, unde sunt tokenurile cele mai de succes, e mai scump (si posibil mai complicat).
Nu vreau sa te fac sa incerci pe WAVES, departe de mine gandul acesta! Incerc doar sa-ti arat ca se poate si fara sa arunci banii pe fereastra.

Oricum, de la a crea un token si a gasi fraieri investitori care sa-l cumpere e cale foarte lunga. Tokenul trebuie sa fie bun la ceva.
Si asta inseamna o gramada de bani (reclama) si skills. Si o afacere pe bune care sa creasca din banii adunati si apoi sa intre pe profit, sa faca investitia profitabila pentru cei care au investit. Plus ca sunt o gramada de chestii financiaro-legale in treaba asta, pe care nu le stiu (ca sa protejeze investitorii, printre altele).
7130  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Can someone mine my small transaction on: April 22, 2021, 09:02:12 AM
I've accelerated it for you at ViaBTC. It should be mined in the next few hours, depending when ViaBTC pool with find a new block.



Update: it has already 5 confirmations
7131  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will drop to 20k is not time to buy btc now on: April 22, 2021, 08:50:49 AM
Look at btc charts is move 1% a month. Altcoins have much better ROI of 2-5x till the end of the bull run.
BTC keep you poor this bull run.

Let's say that Bitcoin rises at 1% rate per month... on what kind of math will this get it to 20k? Also, next time keep in mind that we have the mighty power to zoom out the charts and see the big picture. Can you?
While altcoins may or may not rise, they are much riskier than bitcoin, just because with insufficient knowledge one can easily buy some shitcoin.
7132  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: can not broadcast, saying low fee on: April 22, 2021, 07:46:56 AM
You are right, but just to make it more clearer, it is not 2 weeks exactly, although it is usually roughly 2 weeks but the exact is every 2016 blocks that the mining difficulty will be adjusted.

Indeed, it's 2016 blocks. But since it's expected that this 2016 blocks means this time more than 3 weeks, and since 1.5 weeks have already passed, my answer was that it's roughly ("about") 2 more weeks from now on.
At least that's how I see it from "Difficulty adjustment" area on mempool.space
Maybe I should have been indeed clearer.
7133  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: can not broadcast, saying low fee on: April 22, 2021, 07:33:15 AM
What's the problem?

The problem is that the network is hugely congested, hence the fees are (too) high. The reason is that some mining farms have no electricity hence they're out of business for a while.

Keep an eye on https://mempool.space/ now and then. Right now you'll probably won't be able to send at under 20.8 sat/vByte and even then it is basically useless, since current fees are at over 100 sat/vByte.
As I said, keep an eye now and then on that website, wait for the lower fees come. If those miners don't get back in business, in less than 2 weeks the network difficulty will drop and the mempool will (slowly) clear up.
so if you can wait, .. wait. If not, then it's gonna be expensive.
7134  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How do i send USD figure instead of bitcoin figure ? on: April 21, 2021, 02:32:38 PM
How do I generate segwit address?
How does it look like?

If you create a new wallet with the latest Electrum, it will be SegWit wallet. You can check by giung to View->Show Addresses and then switch to Addresses tab. They'll all start with bc1.

If i send all my bitcoin funds from default blockchain wallet to electurm wallet, WIll i be able to send funds from electrum wallet moving forward in less fee than normal blockchain.com address ? Since this will be segwit address...

Before using funds with Electrum, you better make sure it's downloaded from electrum.org and it's verified: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/how-to-verify-your-electrum-download/
Then, if you send from your SegWit address to SegWit addresses, yes, the fees will be a bit lower. But since now the network is congested, that will still be pretty high...
7135  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Unconfirmed Btc Transaction on: April 21, 2021, 01:08:46 PM
when googling another accelerator I found

Most accelerators you find on google search only re-broadcast the transaction at best (some won't do anything).
An accelerator has to be basically related to a mining pool in order to actually do anything.

And with ViaBTC if you don't send at the exact time, as also said on their page, your chances are zero.
7136  Other / Meta / Re: How do i use the Trust system on: April 21, 2021, 11:01:25 AM
How do we use the trust system.

1. Click onto "Trust settings" link. You will have a list where you can add users you trust, or distrust (for distrust you put a ~ in front of user name). Don't forget to click Update
2. If you have a valid opinion on somebody, you can add your trust feedback to that user. If you consider it trustworthy, make it positive, if untrustworthy make it negative, or if you want to just inform for caution, you can make it neutral.
7137  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How do i send USD figure instead of bitcoin figure ? on: April 21, 2021, 07:55:20 AM
Since BTC/sat value keep changing. I want to send specific $ to these multiple addresses every day, can someone help me with this?

Since you send Bitcoin and Electrum Pay-To-Many also works with Bitcoin, why not simply use a 3rd party website to do the calculation for you?
I would use https://preev.com where I can enter the 50$ and for example show now 0.0009025BTC
And then you can do in Electrum:

Code:
walletid, 0.0009025
waalleetid, 0.0009025

Of course, you'll probably have to tell the other people you use preev rate and everybody will have to understand that this amount's price may be different in the moment they arrive in the destination wallet.
7138  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Help please guys... Unconfirmed transaction.. Only I pro can figure this out :( on: April 21, 2021, 07:48:34 AM
What is the importance of submitting the transaction exactly on the hour, and does this apply to other accelerators as well?

ViaBTC offers a very small space (100 tx/hour?) for freely accelerated transactions.
So if you are 5 seconds late that "buffer" is already full, filled by many others using their service.

I don't know the rules of other accelerators, they'll probably be different.
7139  Other / Meta / Re: Confused- Should I report it as off topic or not on: April 21, 2021, 07:10:50 AM
From what you write here, the topic could deserve to be moved to gambling discussion.
It’s not a topic because we don't have a board yet. It’s a post in one & only place to discuss crypto. If there was a board, there would be no problem at all.
Waiting for a mod to respond here.

Yeah, then it's a bit more complicated, since you have one big topic for your language and that's all. Since I've ignored that area many years ago, I forgot that's like this.
One options is to be a bit more permissive and give that post as example while asking for a proper board (not just a thread) for your own language.
...And reporting it is still not a bad choice; mod will have to think and decide.
7140  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Sidechains on: April 20, 2021, 02:13:15 PM
I've found explorers, but since I'm not familiar with them, I don't really know what to look at.
For Counterparty there's https://xchain.io/ and I think that the Sends tab tells the transactions.
For Liquid there's https://blockstream.info/liquid/, but I see that the amounts are not shown ("confidential").
