7201  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin at $1 million this cycle really possible? on: April 13, 2021, 01:56:19 PM
is the really possible what looks like a dream - $ 1 million for bitcoin this cycle?

I don't know and I don't care. And you shouldn't either. Bitcoin price is already more than great for this cycle.

On the other hand, people that may be smarter than me have been saying that this bull run will be longer and higher than the previous one.
The previous one have ran from under 1000$ to almost 20000$. The charts show exponential growth, hence "longer" can mean anything, sky is the limit. Common sense tells me that asking for 1M in this bull run may be too much though...
7202  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: transfer fee rate how much ? on: April 13, 2021, 10:46:41 AM
Also as an advice, since you use Electrum, make sure that RBF is ON, so you can replace the transaction if it takes way too long to get confirmed.
I am not sure about electrum on desktop, but the latest release Android versions (4.1.1, and now 4.1.2) do not have any feature again to enable replace-by-fee as it is now enabled by default. If the sender is about to send the btc, it can flag it final, which means it is not replaceable. But to enable replace-by-fee, the transaction should not be flagged final. I believe this should be how it also now work on desktop versions latest release, but I am not certain about it yet.

I don't use Electrum for Android since it doesn't support hardware wallet. So I don't know how's there.
But what you are telling is rather confusing imho. My desktop Electrum (not the latest, but close) has a setting in preferences called "Use Replace-By-Fee"; this is what I was referring to and this should be checked.

7203  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: transfer fee rate how much ? on: April 13, 2021, 09:59:41 AM
i dont understand for btc transfer, how much select for fee rate ?

The fee rate doesn't depend on the amount you send, it depends on the size of your transaction.
This means the number of inputs and outputs. Simply you will pay much more to send a truck full of pennies than a couple of banknotes (yes, it matters a lot how you have the money in the wallet)
Then, the fee rate fluctuates a lot by how "busy" the network is. You can follow https://mempool.space/ for a while and see what happens there.

Since you didn't tell the actual fee / vBytes I cannot answer better to your question.
As an advice, if you have the time to wait, follow that website and send the coins when the fees are low (it usually happens in the week-ends).
Also as an advice, since you use Electrum, make sure that RBF is ON, so you can replace the transaction if it takes way too long to get confirmed.

that's my explanation from my perspective.

It's an simplified and incomplete overview of the situation, but I've awarded you with 1 merit for the idea.

This is a complicated question

I didn't intend to make it simple or complicated  Smiley , but the fact it's not clear/straightforward made me ask.
Thanks for the answers.

So the ice was broken. Great news! And the price seems to love this news too  Cheesy
As I've seen posted on twitter too: let's finally end this mess.
I'm curious how long will this lawsuit take and how many other will follow...

If the plans that are foreseen for the 3rd generation cars, foreseen for 2022, the strategy of the box will come into play.
It is planned, the cars will be more powerful and this will force you to make at least one stop in the box, to make a battery charge super fast.

Interesting news. Then there's hope. They are advancing, and rather fast.
I'll keep an eye, although most probably won't watch all the races, not yet  Wink

7208  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: 1 Satoshi? on: April 13, 2021, 08:39:50 AM
I guess we are going down to maybe just 1 satoshi!

Since the faucets can have their own recording for how much each of their users "has", they can easily go under 1 satoshi too.
I think that the days freebitco.in will give 0.5 satoshi per dip are not that far.

And yes, it's waste of time for the users. But as long as some don't mind wasting that time, faucets will keep staying in business.
7209  Economy / Services / Re: Need help for signature campaign! on: April 13, 2021, 08:35:23 AM
An imperfect solution is that you start everything even without images and maybe ask that a higher rank quotes your post to make the images visible. If it's not a scam, people will do that.
It's not perfect, but this is for free.

The other options are already said:
* buy copper membership
* hire a campaign manager
7210  Economy / Reputation / Re: REMOVE VOD FROM DT on: April 13, 2021, 06:55:53 AM
Vod will eventually be removed from DT1 if he stays away due to this rule posted below. He will still be on DT2 due ti his number of inclusions. I doubt you'll get enough support to have everyone remove him.

- You must have posted sometime within the last 30 days.

idiots

Yep, this is why I said that OP should know the rules.
But instead of checking them, OP has preferred to "prove his intelligence" with insults.

All in all, DT2 rules may get changed at some point, since there are complaints now and then about DT2 people that may not handle trust ratings in a appropriate way for DT.
But probably the changes won't happen as soon as some would like.
7211  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Non Fungible Tokens (NFT) on: April 12, 2021, 02:35:42 PM
From my understanding, a NFT is a digital signature/certificate telling that you own this or that. Nice.
But there's something I fail to understand with NFTs, and I'll come with an example.

Let's say that Jack Dorsey, instead of publicly auctioning his first tweet NFT, he makes multiple such tokens - on the same (is it possible?) or different blockchains - and sells them all.
Or let's say that a famous painter makes a wonderful painting, sells the NFT and then sells the actual painting too.
Clearly, these are scams. But how can they be prevented? How can I know for sure, as buyer, that I get the correct thing?
7212  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Mycellium vs CoinBase?Whats the difference? on: April 12, 2021, 02:17:50 PM
Mycelium is certainly a good wallet for mobile, but I'd go with Electrum either for desktop/laptop or mobile over Coinbase or Mycelium in a heartbeat.

For desktop I also recommend Electrum.
But, afaik, sadely Electrum for mobile still doesn't support hardware wallets. And, maybe I am paranoid, but I would not use a mobile wallet without being paired to a HW.
7213  Economy / Reputation / Re: REMOVE VOD FROM DT on: April 12, 2021, 11:49:01 AM
Lauda tagged more scammers but after she left the forum she was removed from DT

Given that it's basically the scammers crying to get Vod out of DT, I'd advise theymos actually hardcode and keep him there.
Also since you are somebody's alt (aren't you?), I'm surprised that you don't know yet how DT works, since your "request" is useless.
7214  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin costs on: April 12, 2021, 10:45:26 AM
Using any other crypto or how to find best off-peak hours to use? My transactions are around 12 hours with $1 cost Sad

The estimations are in sat/vByte, the dollar value doesn't mean much. Also keep in mind that the time estimations may not be correct (especially in the Mondays).

Now... you've missed by some 5-6 hours the low fees. Usually in the week-ends the fees decrease (not always, but they usually do).
Nowadays, if you don't have bigger amounts of money to send or you don't have the patience to wait, then you may have to look for another coin. (Lightning Network is another option, but it's still considered beta though).

If you want to stay with Bitcoin, I recommend you set the RBF flag so you can re-send a transaction if it takes longer than you want to wait and also get used to read websites like https://mempool.space/ so you learn a bit more about the fees. Also make sure you use your own wallet, since a transaction not confirmed for very long time may get dropped (meaning that it will return to your wallet).
7215  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Classic Multibit 0.5.18 recovery with 16 words passphrase help please on: April 12, 2021, 10:15:48 AM

I don't know from my experience, but at a simple check, the company looks legit and it's in business since 1999.
However, they are specialized in recovering data (files) from your hard drive, not your Bitcoin.
This means that:
* while they may get your files, you will still have to find out what to do with those
* there's no guarantee whether they'll try or not to get their hand onto your coins


The problem is that all the information you provided is ambiguous, to say the least:
* you said that you have a seed for Multibit, but it's not a seed for Multibit
* you implied that you had funds in the first Multibit (Classic or HD, who knows?)
If the funds are indeed yours, try to remember if you moved the funds from Multibit to Blockchain.info or from Blockchain.info to Multibit.

That's because the funds could be at Blockchain.info, and then the information you need may be in your old e-mails and you have a chance to get hold of the coins without risking recovery.
If the funds are in Multibit, it could also be of use to tell how you moved the old wallet to the new laptop 3 years ago.
7216  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Paying out customers with BTC , cheapest solutions ? on: April 12, 2021, 09:06:31 AM
I would like to pay out customers in BTC , what are some of the most cost effective solutions out there ?

Option 1 should be LN payments, but I don't expect that be possible in your case.

Obviously at least you should have SegWit address.
And I'd say that you should somehow keep an "account" for each customer (an entry in the database) with the coins "he has" and only allow them withdraw to their wallet if certain threshold is met (threshold that depends on the tx fees in that month).
And the withdrawals should also be batched, maybe for once a week, in the week-ends, when the fees are usually lower.
7217  Economy / Services / Re: ✰ WhaleMixer.com ✰ Looking for CM on: April 12, 2021, 08:42:22 AM
I will try to give some answers here without getting into the "biased" territory.

What difference it makes if we can prove we have 50 BTC , as long as we know what we do and our mixing has been successful and no accusations, we even have happy clients posting their feedback.

That's because you are too new and we all know (and you know too) that online feedback is easy to fake / buy.

If we leak our vendors or sign on the 50 BTC, then we become trackable and the coins dispensed becomes of no value. there will be a corpulent between us and the BTC balance which will be tied along.

In theory you're right. But since the request was to prove yourself to one trusted member, that information is most probably safe enough and you should not worry.



All in all, sorry, but the provided excuses are rather weak, which basically decreases your credibility even more...
7218  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Percent gains and losses on crypto on: April 12, 2021, 07:37:17 AM
Hey guys.  I'm not sure how to ask my question but this is regarding Ledger Live or Coinbase.  So let's say I buy $100 worth of bitcoin and send right away to my Nano X wallet.  On Ledger Live it shows the bitcoin balance and the US dollar conversion.  I only did a one time purchase and deposit of $100 so anything above or below $100 is easy to read and I know if I had gained or lost as bitcoin fluctuates.

But what happens over time with numerous purchases at different amounts and different bitcoin prices?  After numerous deposits to my wallet, how do I quickly see if I'm ahead or behind without going back to coinbase and adding up every single purchase and comparing that amount to the ledger live balance?  Instead, all it shows is the balance.  If I was to purxhase another $100, it just lumps it all together.  I have the same question if I was to leave my bitcoin on the Coinbase exchange.  I guess what Im asking is how do I know the total of my original investment?

It would be nice if on every deposit, you had the option to input what price you bought at and how much you purchased so that everything is automatically calculated whether you are doing good or bad.  Then it can show you a percent gain or loss since you started. I may be not seeing something here, but it seems to be an important option tool thats missing from Ledger Live and/or Coinbase.  Thank you

Just forget for a second that you are buying Bitcoin. Imagine that you buy a foreign currency. Or gold. Now, will the marketplace keep your booking for what you bought and at what price? Not necessarily.

Now back to normal. Of course that since you have Bitcoin, your balance will show Bitcoin.
But I don't use Coinbase, I use Binance. And at least for the last couple of transactions, I can see in the transaction history the price and all the details.
So, check the transaction history. If you don't have that, find an exchange that suits you better or, even better keep an excel file (since exchanges don't exist forever, since in the excel file you can put the real amounts, including the exchange fee)
7219  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Benefits of developing coin. on: April 12, 2021, 07:16:15 AM
Were does the funds of all these coins listed goes to

Most of the money from proper PoW coins goes the the electric companies and hardware manufacturers.

Really it's open and clear that whatever that's have advantages, in another form also has disadvantages, so in this scenario what is the disadvantages of who are coin developer?

Your list needs a better classification, and from there the dev/creator advantages derive:

[1] proper coins
The main advantage of the creator is that he can mine early a number of coins, which, if the coin is successful, will hold great value in 10-20 years. Of course, many others will mine with him, just because they've paid attention.
In time, the dev/maintainer may get funding for his project.
If the coin is successful, he becomes a public figure and will go for various speeches here and there (and probably not for free).

[2] centralized, IPO, pre-mine coins, coins with developer fee
The creator will have a big amount (up to 100%!!) of coins from second 1 that he can sell and he can also manipulate the "emission" and the market too, hence manipulating the price.

[3] coins with developer fee
The creator will accumulate coins from every mined block. Coins he can use in various ways (see [2]).

[4] fork coins
The history shows that the most advertised fork coins were made by people having already big amounts of Bitcoin.
So they've got in their pockets from start that amount of fork coin to use (see [2]) plus the amount of Bitcoin they'll also use for advertising their coin.
All in all they risk their Bitcoins to create and advertise something else in their hope for supremacy, power, ... (and, sadly, it partly works)
7220  Other / Off-topic / Re: Formula E on: April 12, 2021, 06:55:05 AM
and some great manoeuvres.

After 4 races (full races, this time) I can say that although it's fun to watch, and also intense (!), I still prefer Formula1.

I think that the biggest problem is the track: it's narrow and it has walls, not allowing enough room for maneuvers. Also the fact the car performances are basically identical (imho) contributes to this.
The attack zone rules are interesting, but nowhere near the pit strategies from F1.


I think it would be difficult to offer odds and make bets on these races.

I don't know it there would be many crazy enough to also bet  Cheesy (it's more like dicing, really)
