7121  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how many country recently accept btc? on: May 29, 2017, 10:35:50 PM
No country is accepting bitcoin as an official currency as far as I know, You can just exchange it through tons of methods local and international to the local currency of the currency, naturally countries usually don't accept anything but their official currencies, exchanges can do any...

Japan already recognized bitcoin as payment system. Many are still in discussion, we might see more in future.
http://www.coindesk.com/japan-bitcoin-law-effect-tomorrow/

A lot of newbies here that probably are stuck in the communist era where the state and the country and the great leader is one and the same.
There is no country accepting bitcoins.

There are a lot of them who have recognized bitcoin as a form of money.
And even within those countries there are slight differences on how bitcoin payments are viewed and regulated.

But there is no country yet that has enforced bitcoin as an alternative to their currency.
So if your next door store doesn't want to accept bitcoin there is nothing you can do about it.

Once we get over this... then the real fun will begin

Agree, but we are edging V E R Y slowly closer to more and more adoption
and the question is will any country ever recognise Bitcoin as legal tender
to compete with its own fiat currency.

I think the OP is using the wrong terminology, "Accept" or "Recognise"  Huh

Well I too have some Golem because I like the concept of lending and using computer power
over the blockchain and this project is in its infancy.

I store Golem on my EXODUS desktop wallet here is the link > https://www.exodus.io/releases/

Yup it starts with the whales and the minnows follow until they are finished cashing
out which is perfect for the whales to buy back at a lower rate which in turn is
followed again by new minnows buying in, Bitcoin showing a nice healthy dollar
value of $2244

The whales might have cashed out but they certainly cashed back in!

OK I've been reading up on the website and making my way through
the whitepaper [not finished reading yet] I really like the concept!

Im wondering how all this is going to transpire. I'm based in Rural Ireland
on the west coast, next stop Newfoundland! and I'm trying to figure
how I'm going to be able to trade electricity using the blockchain using
existing infrastructure owned partly by the state.
I'm not expecting an specific answer just a general one in lay-mans terms...

Hi there, I'm new to altcoins. Anyone has some usefull tips? Or a strategy that worked for you? Smiley

My Advice is Research, Read, before you invest in Altcoin. That's what newbie need to do to know more about Altcoins. All of traders strategy in altcoin is buy low sell high. Now Almost all of the altcoin is at low price so it's time to buy.

I agree with the above, you need to do your research
And decide which information is reputable and which is not

Everyone is going to give you advice on the currency they
Have invested in and tell you its the best out there.

I assume you have bitcoin already?

This forum is an aladins cave of information,
You just have to sort through it.
7128  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you invest in Ethereum longterm? on: May 27, 2017, 08:56:46 AM
I like ethereum, i got in in january and have been rewarded so far.
I like its ERC20 token system,
i think some of the existing projects there have good potential.
currently watching the price to get in again.

 Grin sometimes along the way on bitcointalk I get a great laugh.

Its funny that only 1 person thinks and has voted "I will never use any service which yahoo manages"

I have worked on a Yahoo campaign and found him to be very fair and prompt.

7130  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Whales are starting cashing out... on: May 26, 2017, 11:46:56 AM
just look at the trends and charts for most alt coins; the bubble will pop soon, not the best moment to buy!
Best time to buy. Coins on the discount for long-term holding

Get with it, boyo



You need to stop spamming message boards. I don't like the little games your playing. I take my money serous. You need to stop!

Yup. Buying now is a foolish act to do and you will loose money. The market fluctuating dangerously and hope this will stop gradually otherwise I feel many of the traders will leave altcoin trading.

well it depends on your strategy really and what you believe/think/hope and pray for,
there are other threads predicting bitcoin to go over $3000 this year and even $5000
so buying now would be ok too, but yea it all prediction, who knows whats going to happen ?

7132  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Leading Japanese ATM manufacturer Oki gets into Bitcoin ATM Business. on: May 26, 2017, 09:07:27 AM
Here is a link to more info > http://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Companies/Japan-s-Oki-launching-bitcoin-ATM-for-emerging-Asia
The machines are destined for CHINA and will not be used in Japan yet, the report states
there is a small demand for them in Japan at the moment . . .  Sad

"Oki has no plans to deploy the ATM back in Japan yet,
given relatively quiet demand for bitcoin by financial institutions here."





7133  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Leading Japanese ATM manufacturer Oki gets into Bitcoin ATM Business. on: May 26, 2017, 08:59:53 AM
I'm still not sure about the rationale behind the existance of bitcoin ATMs.

Regular fiat cash is starting to disappear in favor of digital transactions and yet, with bitcoin, a digital coin, ATMs are placed around the globa handing out physical "paper" bitcoins.

I could understand if they loaded the coins directly on your phone though.

I think the Bitcoins can be transferred to an online wallet via QR code
or they can print a paper wallet also.

I wonder if they will accept card payment going forward rather than physical cash?
7134  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Japanese Airlines to accept bitcoins soon on: May 26, 2017, 08:27:45 AM
Japan seems to be at the forefront of mainstream adoption. Too bad the US blew the chance to lead the space.

Yes for sure they are definitely leading the way in terms of adoption. Stuff like this and the
other thread here about OKI going to manufacture ATM's is all positive. If large companies
see potential for expansion and market share they will be all over it and then we have a
snowball effect.

Its all good!!
 
The news is reported in mainstream news also, Here it is on the financial times from the 22nd >

7135  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Leading Japanese ATM manufacturer Oki gets into Bitcoin ATM Business. on: May 26, 2017, 07:47:40 AM
Leading japanese ATM manufacturer OKI has entered into Bitcoin ATM business.They are launching their first line of Bitcoin ATMs this month.The OKI electric company claims to be the first to develop world's first cash recycling ATM in 1982.It seems that all the companies who are pioneer in their fields are jumping into bitcoin industry to make utmost use of bitcoin development.






This is great news for sure. Yea OKI are the printer manufacturer.
Japan is really taking up the Bitcoin baton and really running with it.
I recon this is also why the value is rising rapidly lately,

is there a link to where you saw this report?

7136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are your favorite use cases for blockchain technology? on: May 25, 2017, 10:26:21 PM
Blockchain with smart contract is the most useful case of the blockchain technology, in my opinion, something like Ethereum and its decentralized smart contracts. There are many more usages for it, though. We still haven't seen blockchain flourishing yet, just Bitcoin's and altcoins'.

I agree, I really think we are on a big discovery trend.
I've posed about this before and its a small example of just
how widely used Blockchain Technology can become.

Bosch are looking at implementing it to counteract Odometer fraud Here is the link >

http://www.eenewsautomotive.com/news/bosch-plans-anchor-ai-blockchain-car/page/0/1

Quote from bottom of Page 1 to page 2 >

"In his keynote speech, Denner identified more technologies that will help Bosch to
open up new business opportunities. One example is blockchain – the secure
distributed database used to implement the digital currency Bitcoin. In the
automotive context, blockchain could be used to prevent odometer fraud."
7137  Economy / Speculation / Re: We're reaching $3,000 soon! on: May 25, 2017, 05:02:14 PM
yes we are reaching $3,000 soon, and we have
trebled the value in less than 4 months from $900
in January which is crazy, I certainly didnt think
I would be looking at such a high value so early
in the year let alone 2017...

and yea if there is any bit of a fall back there will
be a lot of buying going on for sure.  Grin



7138  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Belacoin - Supercharging entrepreneurship with the power of the blockchain on: May 25, 2017, 04:34:54 PM


Dark Gravity Wave has been integrated into Belacoin's test net, and after a few days of studying its effects, we're ready to declare success. Now, we're preparing the code for an update to the wallets and picking a date for the official full integration on the main Belacoin blockchain. We'll let everyone know sometime in the next few days about the official date. We'll be reaching out to the exchanges that list Belacoin, Belacoin block explorers, and mining pools to update in preparation. We'll also put together an easy guide for those of you that are holding Belacoin in a desktop wallet. If your money is on an exchange, you likely won't need to do anything.

Come to our Slack at Belacoin.herokuapp.com (use https://belacoin.slack.com if you're already a member) to get more updates and to talk directly with us.

Fantastic, great news and also great to see the development going into this project.
I have Belacoin in my desktop wallet so I will be looking for that update guide for sure.

Thanks again for the update !!

This is pretty amazing. This guy somehow nailed it and is now 200% up at least. He somehow saw how the simplicity of Litecoin would be it's killer app. Im not sure if he is aware of segwit and he predicted how segwit would fail for Bitcoin and Litecoin had higher chances at getting it activated and moving a lot of capital there, but in any case, this man went all in and he's now making some killer gains.

So almost two months later and while it was/is a risk,
I think it was a pretty good call!

Dollar value today is $2763.71 and back on the 3rd
of April was $1129.90, nice return eh?
Have you even read the thread title? We're talking about LITECOIN here and you're listing the Bitcoin prices....
People selling houses for Bitcoin has already happened btw, found a story of a guy in Canada selling his house for Bitcoin.

Ah I misunderstood the OP "and he predicted how segwit would fail for Bitcoin" I have
bitcoin on the brain by watching it rise. but yes to quote numbers for litecoin for April 3rd
was around $8 and now its $35.66 which in actual fact he made to date, [provided he has
still his investment in litecoin
]
has made exactly twice as much as investing in Bitcoin!!
