The website idea is cool

If I may suggest just 2-3 things:

- The content should be more centered. when you think about it
- The table (or whatever is used) should be bigger. I mean, for example, name; description icons should be bigger, especially when you have enough place
- I find this totally ridiculous that my twitter profile is not listed and that I need to add it (ok just joking of course)

I find the categories very useful to sort out the pertinent results a user needs. and bookmarking the url to replace the chaos in my bookmarks.

Not sure but check Cryptowatch.ch website and perhaps Tradingview. Cryptowatch has a lot of data that can be displayed, the site is ugly with its dark theme lol but you can get a lot of info, everything on the homepage is clickable. I told you because me I discovered this after a month

If bitcoin supply reaches 21 million, what about bitcoin miner? will they stop to mine bitcoin? or will they still do so?

How that comes you are using this forum for over 2 years but don't know the basics? Are you blind enough to not see that the answer to your question has already be answered in the second post on this topic? "user password changed recently" oh yes we can easily guess what's going on.

This cloudfare page load from time to time when you are quoting someone. I think it is caused by a character or a combination so the Cloudfare system is seeing this as a potential threat. As soon you remove the quote you can post normally. It happens often with forums using Cloudfare service. It can be fixed still but have no idea how.
7445  Economy / Speculation / Re: For all Europeans: BTC 10000 euro on: December 03, 2017, 06:44:34 PM
Even if I use the euro currency for selling, it does not really affect me psychologically. I usually use the dollar while I talk about Bitcoin or even when I read the news and I think it's the same for the majority of people

The tax situation is much friendlier than the US in most EU states, there are more Europeans, though of course USD is more global, and they're cleverer and more attractive than Americans too.

Yeah, Europeans taxes are so friendly. That's why all the international firms are moving manufactories in poor countries and moving the headquarters in countries with rude taxes like Panama, Belize and Luxembourg. And all this after the countries helped them by giving millions of euros in exchange to stay in the country and create jobs. Now they took the millions and go out of Europe.
I'm the same, my bank account is in Euro, but I look at the price in USD.
I find that the price in Euro is often less accurate than the USD price. When I trade I trade on Bitcoin.de, but the price is all over the place there.

The German system for tax is great, hold for one year and it's tax-free. For those of us who bought in 2014, that is a double bonus (the massive price rise being the other)

AH! Not long ago, while we were in a slack channel, we were talking about the taxes related to Bitcoin. Most of the people were in to debate how it can be good to make a (what I find to be a silly) system à la Paradise Paper. One of them mentioned your country since we are a neighbor, now I understand better.

Here we have to pay taxes no matter if you own the bitcoins since years, even from mining we have to pay. Generally speaking, I think I am fine with paying the taxes and more taxes I pay more I am happy because it means I earn more money

It's not going to do anything. The only thing is people will look more to use the anonymous altcoins and so good luck to them with that. What will they do then? Oh wait; it may be a good news since the anon coins value will rise at a good level. Good luck to them trying to watch people using anon coins.

They are focusing their resources on the wrong side...literally...

Theoretically by 2140, the 21 million bitcoins will be mined. And if you wonder about miners and mining, we will still need them. They will be paid with the transaction fees but not for the newly created bitcoins (as all of them are mined). Hope that help.
7449  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Minimum Cost For Wallet Bitcoin on: December 03, 2017, 03:07:12 PM
Any open source wallet will allow you set your own fees, so there is no cheapest. You can pay 0% if you wish, it is just that the miners will likely never confirm it and as a result other Bitcoin nodes won't even relay your transaction if it is bellow certain amount.

Electrum is a popular light weight open source wallet and Bitcoin Core is a backbone of the entire network which stores, validates and replays all transaction on the network.

I think the OP did not express himself clearly. He does not talk about the transaction fees for sending bitcoins but those related to trading (buying/selling)

@gtinvest it doesn't matter if you trade small or big amount because the fees are (usually) based on a percentage, as mentioned by OmegaStarScream. On average the fees are more or less the same, about 0.25%
7450  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitcoin Debit card or VCC in New Zealand - Outside Europe, USA? on: December 03, 2017, 01:04:44 PM
Wagecan and Bitpay are maybe the only one able to provide bitcoin debit card for people outside Europe. Better I tell you before that the Wagecan card (only the gold card is available for outside Europe citizens) is not cheap

Another option that you can take a look at is Viabuy.com, they provide a Mastercard and a dedicated Iban. According to their FAQ, they have a Bitcoin option with Bitpay.

Edit: sorry I checked and Bitpay is available only for European citizens and the USA
7451  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: depositing USD on: December 03, 2017, 10:16:30 AM
There isn't any wallet accepting deposits from Paypal and if you find one it will be suspicious.

Exchanges currencies (not only cryptos) is a prohibited activity in the user agreement. So you risk having your account suspended for illegal activity and you can be sure that the website hasn't a business account approved by PayPal.

The company is fighting hard to avoid money laundering, to abide by the laws related to money laundering, fraudulent transactions, etc, so you can be sure it won't start to accept this anytime soon as long there are not more regulations/regulated companies (i.e. coinbase)

7452  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Which online wallet for bitcoin is safer? on: December 02, 2017, 01:49:32 PM
I also tried MyEtherWallet
MyEtherWallet isn't a Bitcoin wallet.

blockchain . info is a good one. Well done for not thinking about Android. Love Android, but hey, friends separate, money separate.

No private keys=no bitcoins. Personally, I created a wallet sometime back to see how it looks and I don't find it so user-friendly and a bit confusing. (but that's just a personal opinion)

You need to tell your friend to wise up if he want's to use a online wallet. A lot of the online wallets won't allow you to know your private key so if the website ever goes down through DDOS or other attacks then you won't be able to access your Bitcoin.
Nope, no online wallet is 'safe', if you do not hold the private keys -  you do not control or own the coin.

Also, I lost an account on blockchain.info, no longer there but the BTC still shows.. another story there..

Bitwala gives you the private keys, in fact, they don't store any keys, for security reasons. So if you lose your keys it's gone because they won't be able to help you with this.


7453  Economy / Economics / Re: Yes or No? Doesn't Bitcoin unfairly benefit early adopters? on: December 02, 2017, 01:30:13 PM
LOL, soon people will be blamed for saving money in Bitcoin some years back. We could spin the question differently: Is it fair that the early adopters took the risks to believe in the project, while those who are jumping on the bitcoin wagon now are "risk-free"?
You see there is two points of view to think about.
7454  Economy / Economics / Re: Where Will The Digital Economy Take Us? on: December 02, 2017, 01:16:40 PM
While talking about blockchain you guys are only focusing on Bitcoin. But the OP is talking about the technology blockchain and it's larger than just cryptocurrencies.

To be honest the blockchain technology has far more potential than Bitcoin. If a day Bitcoin die, blockchain will still be here. It can be used in so many fields, like banking, real estate, health, insurance, tourism, and so on. And the best part is, since it's a quite new technology, we have seen nothing yet with its potential.

In 50 years the technology will maybe be used for some things we only see in movies

7456  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why people from 3rd countries are crazy about getting cryptos? on: December 02, 2017, 01:38:09 AM
I agree with you at some point.

Imagine you hear about bitcoin on media and decide to make some research on the web to know more about it. You surely find about bitcointalk as it comes a lot in the SERP for some queries. Then you say "oh bitcoin has a forum, great! let me read"

After 1 hour you figure most of them are always telling bitcoin=moon! bitcoin will be $50k in 2 weeks hold, buy buy buy! Rich soon!
You also figure that most of them are under 18, housewife, don't give a fuck to bitcoin, but just want free money. you see that they make no sense posts, with the same question popping every day. Telling to people to buy bitcoin but never do themselves, why should they, they don't care about crypto. They just love rehashing the same question and answer all day long

I tell you this, it's not about racism, I tell you it because I have a friend who didn't know about bitcoin he ended here and started to read, the next day he told me "bitcoin is just for children in sandbox so they can buy video games, I don't want to look more about it" Cheesy Cheesy
7457  Economy / Economics / Re: Will America tax reform bill affect on bitcoin price? on: December 02, 2017, 01:10:01 AM
The real winners will be the corporates, more annual income. Does this will give the jobs back to the USA? No, the taxes may decrease by 5-10% jobs are still 50-70% cheaper in  Tier 3 countries. It won't encourage to create jobs in the USA
For the middle-class Americans, it's not going to help a lot, the prices keep increasing.
Better to cancel those outrageous loans for students, with outrageous rates, it may be better to start with, if they want to make America great again

I don't see how it can make the U.S. dollar rising, or how it can help bitcoin nor either
the only thing it can do is making simple to report taxes incomes
7458  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Coss- Binance of Singapore on: December 02, 2017, 12:37:47 AM
i used this exchange when it was in "beta"  the site is good etc but there is just a thing: they are very strict with verification KYC. Even when you just want to transfer coins out of your account need to be verified. I don't know if it's still the same but I was lucky that during this period I was using it, the rule was still not fully added because I discovered it the last day lol.
Other than that, it's a good one

It's not only the last 2 days it's like this for more than a month or two, it becomes a nightmare and it's driving people nuts. Check the services>exchanges section and see all the people frustrated with this situation. I give them 2 weeks and the sh*t is still the same, I will leave the website with no problem.
7460  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: ShapeShift.io is a SCAM !!! on: December 02, 2017, 12:05:10 AM
What did they tell you when they replied to your support ticket? Because you have contacted them right? Or you call them scammers without waiting for a reply? I think it is the case, just show some patience because they reply within 24h and they are very helpful.
Not even talking how useless it is to scam you just for some bucks
