i wanted to this myself for my addresses but couldn't find any working application that i could use. i know of couple of options (not exactly what you want though). i think it was "shorena" who posted an app in java that you could check the balance of multiple addresses. but you have to replace the API search the forum for this one or ask him if he remembers. |

0.02 is not much.
you could either try your luck in gambling sites or check for POS (Proof of Stake) Altcoins and try to make some Stake on them.
how long does it take to receive your reward on a Stake altcoin? also is it really worth it to invest in something like that since the altcoins usually have so volatile price and it might go down drastically and make what you have earned through staking worthless? |

people who are using bitcoin are many different sorts of users. i think they can be categorized like this: - those who are interested in bitcoin technology (nerds
 ) and find it interesting. or those who want to be separate from banking system and government - those who are investors in bitcoin. whales, speculators, small time traders, etc trying to earn a buck
- those who are using bitcoin for games mostly gambling
- those who are using it because it is anonymous, drug dealers, criminals, etc
- others who are just making money (bitcoin) through different ways
i should add that one can be a part of multiple groups and not just one. like gambling and trading and also be a nerd  |

what is wrong with simply making an strong password out of random words?
like what some wallets do with their "Seed" it is pretty secure and don't need adding any random character in the middle.
for example i only have my Electrum seed which acts like a brainwallet for me anyways because i can restore all my addresses with just that seed.

My biggest problem when I get bitcoin quite a lot and I am confused how to multiply it, and then my friend suggested hyip investment and that time I did not really know. then I invest all my bitcoin, and one day later the website can not be accessed and scam  i am sorry to hear that. but it doesn't matter where you have invested because you invested your money (bitcoin) in something without any prior knowledge. the thing is, every kind of investment has its own risks and rewards. it is up to you to do some research before investing your money into anything , no matter what it is. |

when it's the best time to buy BTC again?
Right before it start to go up....  i think the best time to buy bitcoin for those who didn't buy enough back when the price was supper low at $220 and missed the chance is now. because the price just came back down from $310 to ~$280 so it makes a good point to enter if you have been left behind. |

from what i gathered so far i find the second option the most probable one.
there are groups of people trying to force some change in bitcoin (the larger block size) so they are doing these attacks.

the raise of the transaction fee to .0005 per transaction looks normal now because it will be around just 5 cents in USD but we all know bitcoin is not gonna stay at 300$ per bitcoins it ment to be rise if one day it is 5000$ per bitcoins and we are paying 0.0005 fee per transaction as you suggested then we are paying 5$ fee over per transaction which is i think to much
the fact that you can send a transaction with very small amount 0.0001 BTC is one of the best qualities of bitcoin IMO. and i think it should not be changed. you say rising it to 0.0005 BTC looks normal now but you are forgetting about where it goes, to miners, and since the block reward is currently high enough and also the price of bitcoin is rising i say it is nothing normal about rising it. |

Why not multibit, seems fast. For Android, I hear electrum is good.
Multibit will charge you extra fees to use their wallet. in other ways they force you to pay fee to the wallet devs in order to be able to send your transactions. Electrum is much better. Caveat about Multibit classic: the miner fee is fixed at .0001, so expect to wait in line for a long while if you plan to send coins. another plus side for Electrum, because you can increase the amount of fee you include in your transaction very easily. another electrum fan here. also it doubles as a brain wallet, and you never have to back anything up except your seed. the only drawback is people don't tip the servers enough, me included. no good way to incentivize full nodes for now.
i do tip the servers sometimes. but checking some of their tip addresses i have to say people are not usually very generous with them , we gotta do it more to help them continue running this awesome service some interesting related story: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3atyuz/to_whomever_donated_2btc_to_my_electrum_server_i/ |

i think telling kids about bitcoin and how to secure it might be much harder than explaining cash to them.
but it mainly depends on what age your kid has, i think if they are past the early ages and have the minimal understanding of the cash concept then you can introduce them to bitcoin and how to set up a wallet and spend it.
and i think the best way for introduction is through a game that they can earn it like points in other games and spend it.

if you want to increase the price of BTC, then there must be a country going to bankrupt LOL
greece hadn't any real impact on the price, it was only a coincidence, i believe that litecoin pump which started early than the greece last crisis, had a major impact on bitcoin than anything else i think greece didn't have any major impact on the bitcoin price but the greece "News" definitely had a big impact on it. because as soon as the final news about greece was published with the headline of greeks buying bitcoin , made a lot of investors start buying in order not to be left behind , so the price went up. but i don't think it was because of the litecoin pump. |

Most popular way to grow BTC is gambling. There are some website where you can invest and they do BTC mining for you, but that is for big investors because profits are very low.
It is disappointing when you see that there are not many resources to get BTC.
Online business with BTC is always risky, thanks to its anonymous nature. There are not many BTC earning opportunities. BTC is still not very popular among non-technical people.
many bitcoin users believe that gambling is a good way to increase your bitcoin amount so i guess it can be popular way but it is a wrong way. because in the long run they all will lose more money than the amount they have made before. there are far more popular ways to invest bitcoin and earn a nice profit. like investing in trading which has its own risks but at least you have some control over it. |

So, if you had to select only 1 single BTC related investment to put 5 BTC into it, what would that be?
I know a lot of people re going to say there are no safe and sustainable BTC investments but I strongly disagree. Once you exclude HYIPs and ponzies, you can do well in the crypto world.
What would you choose and why?
i have tried many investment methods and i lost on some of them and gained some profit on some others. but the only thing that was interesting to me and i could gain a nice profit from was trading altcoins. it is risky but the profit is good, besides i have control over my bitcoin and i do not put my trust in another person's hand like other investments. also, lately i have been hearing a lot about investing in gambling sites, but i have not yet figured out if it is safe / worth it, to do so or not. |

it is funny OP is shit talking about the whole bitcoin and the reasoning he has is because he has problem with "his" bitcoin-core . a problem that nobody else has. if you can not handle core and can not fix the problem you are having by asking about if, then move to another wallet like light wallets. Bitcoin Core is junk because I can't run it on Commodore Basic 2.0!
PEBKAC.
i am indeed ROFLing |

for me, if we get to $400 in a short time and don't get lower than that i would consider it the huge up-move or as you may call it "da moon"
and honestly after seeing the recent movements and getting to $300, i now see it very much possible to reach that point soon.

Hi I like the site.
You are missing cryptsy, poloniex, and bittrex from the exchanges that I use. It would be nice to see a trade % on the chart for comparison, as well as the fee to get your coin/money out (which can vary a lot). Also cost to get money in, because some places like coinbase charge a lot to make fiat into btc.
the three exchangers that you named (cryptsy, poloniex, and bittrex ) are all altcoin exchangers and OP's link only compares the bitcoin exchangers ( trading bitcoin with fiat and vise versa ) but i am very interested to see a comparison between all of the altcoin exchangers, since i mostly do altcoin trading. |

Nope. It`s way more fun earning them than buying them. I use the money I earn to invest in other things, and then I don`t feel terrible if I lose some of it. I`m sure I`ll get bored with it one day, but for now, I claim.
i also find earning bitcoin through different ways more fun than buying it. but if you want to earn a nice profit from investing in bitcoin, it can be a good option to consider too. also i find faucets the least worthy way of earning bitcoin, they simply just pay the tiniest amount possible which make it not worth the time |

If you are from US, UK, or Canada. http://www.bitcoinget.com/ is ideal for you. It works globally but in mentioned countries they offer more tasks. If you have heard about amazon mechanical turk (usually known as mturk), where people get paid by doing surveys and small tasks, Bitcoinget is similar site which pays BTC. They offer crowdflower tasks and it is very easy and fun way of earning BTC. Use your Facebook to create an account on https://tasks.crowdflower.com/, then use Bitcoinget to earn BTC by completing tasks. At the start your earnings will be low, but after looking at your accuracy rate they will promote you and hence your earnings will increase, too. Promotion is very easy and this website has paid every time. minimum pay out is 100 bits and they pay every 24 hours. I earned most of my BTC. Don't use VPN service, they will not promote you then. Or if you want to use VPN be consistent with one country.  Bitcoinget & Crowdflower is totally wasting your time, it's as useless as doing faucet. You better join signature campaign even you're newbie I've once tried there, but the most of the tasks are too hard. Only few which worth your time i have tested Crowdflower before and it really is waste of time. but it mostly depends on where you live too. some countries have better tasks with better earning potential but some other don't have so many good ones. but all in all i don't find it a good way of earning money, |

I like to hold Bitcoin but I also use them to purchase food or even movie tickets every once in a while. It depends on what the price of Bitcoin is, because if the price is higher, then I am more likely to make purchases with Bitcoin because I can spend less Bitcoin for the same price.
me too. especially now that the price is going up it is not a good time to be spending bitcoins, i am holding my bitcoin and waiting for the future to see how will the price end up to be. but i always put some aside for trading altcoins and that is just because i want to make more bitcoin and increase my stash of bitcoin. |

In the month of January this year, many people wrote bitcoin obituaries when BTC went below 180 USD. Lot of FUD were around and many people sold their coins. Many analysts declared death of bitcoin because mining was not sustainable anymore. I'd like to know from them, how does it feel like when BTC is trading @ 310+ USD again ?  there always will be people who will spread these kinds of FUD and also there always will be other people who will fall to their false information and will lose money over it. but eventually everyone will learn and stop listening to anything shady you hear on the internet. anyways i am very interested to hear from people who were saying "LiteCoin" is going to the moon and it is gonna break $8 and so on... i wonder what they have to say. |
