Just use a mixer mixer and a mixer 3-4 times. Problem solved. You could also deposit and withdraw from a gambling site.
How can you be sure the mixing service isn't a honey pot? And how do you know the gambling site (or a clever 3rd party) isn't fingerprinting every transaction? I've seen a lot of suggestions for using very weak 3rd party solutions ITT but not a single trustless solution. I believe someone here (CIYAM?) is working on cross-chain atomic transactions that would effectively "scrub" links to past transactions, but that's in development (AFAIK). mixers are very probably safe. If you want to be safer, use two 3rd party websites then two different mixers. It depends, there are some mixers which turned out to be a scam. The coin will be under the mixer's owner control for a amount of time if the owner decides to run away, you may just lose your coins. If it is operated by FBI, you are screwed. i think the most trust mixer just bitmixer. But what is he function to hide your bitcoin ? I think you meant what is the use. Bitcoin is designed to be pseudo-anonymous, not completely anonymous. Therefore, you can still get linked to your real life identity or other identity online. To prevent people from tracing the address, mixing is used to boost the anonymity. |

You don't need to download the blockchain to generate a wallet, you can always create the transaction on an online computer then transfer it using a usb the offline computer, sign and use online computer to broadcast it.
Bitcoin Armory can't sign normal raw TX. I don't know if there is any script which can do it. You can use CounterWallet to create a Armory compatible raw unsigned TX. How about bitcoin core ? We need to download the blockchain or no?
Yes, you have to but you can also use Bitcoin core like ranochigo told. You might be interested in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=958960.0 but I haven't verified the source code yet. -MZ My bad, mixed up armory with electrum somehow. Thanks for correcting. Bitcoin core can sign raw tx using the RPC console so blockchain isn't really required since you can still spend them by signing and broadcasting the transaction. |

I am using Bitcoin Core and Armory at the moment
I think btcoin armory is good but we need to download the blockchain. I prefer to use paper wallet just print the walet and then store in a safe place You don't need to download the blockchain to generate a wallet, you can always create the transaction on an online computer then transfer it using a usb the offline computer, sign and use online computer to broadcast it. |

Nothing is ever secure, even online banking system can be hacked. The result of exchange hacking is due to unfixed security issues and poor security measures (eg. exploits, majority of Bitcoins in hot wallet, poorly designed website) . The best option is never to store Bitcoins for long term in a exchange, no matter how trusted it is.

Bitcoin cannot be stopped, if it had to be closed, you would have to bomb the entire internet and cut off internet access everywhere. Even so, people can still find a solution to transmit transactions.

Wallets are safe provided that the RNG is not compromised or exploits has been secretly included in it. Even with a offline computer, weak RNG can steal be cracked and your funds can be stolen. This happened a few years ago when Bitcoin android wallets had a RNG weakness and recently blockchain.info wallet.

I haven't any hardware for mining, I live in georgia, where nobody knows about mining, so here I can't buy anything for mining but I can buy servers online such as hostgator and so on, is any chances ?
Earn with tool : you need deep pocket to buy it Earn without tool : try signature campaign , look faucet ( btc-flow is trending these day ), join contest on service section Faucets pays very very small and with the electricity wasted, it is no better than mining. I assume the tool you are talking about is miner, the pocket has to be very deep, only those with lots of ASICs profit together with low electrical cost. Signature campaign pays very low for posting constructively, it is much better to get a job and convert your pay to Bitcoins. |

Electrum calculated the fees for your transaction to make sure it confirm faster. Usually, if the transaction is less than 1000b and the amount is large, it will go through without fees just fine. Just key in a lower amount into the gambling site and deposit it.

Trying to make better sense of what the whole Bitcoin thing is. Correct me if Im getting something wrong...
I understand it can be used as payment with the biggest attraction (especially to businesses) is much lower fees than what credit card companies charge. Pretty much do transactions like you might do with Paypal, seems pretty straight forward
As for making money, you provide your computer to process transactions. When someone is sending someone else bitcoins, a computer somewhere in the world randomly is chosen to process that transaction. If your computer is chosen, that fee that is paid on that transaction comes to you since your computer processed the transaction. And of course, the more computers you have or the faster your computer is, the better chance you have at your computer being selected to do the transaction.
So, do I have it right???
Computers are not chosen randomly to process transactions. Machine around the world are attempting to create hashes which corresponds to the target, the hash must contain a certain number of zeros to be accepted by the network. Bitcoin system attempts to keep block generation speed at 10 minutes so target gets higher when blocks are solved below 10 minutes and target gets lower when blocks are solved at above 10 minutes per. The better your machine is (faster hash generation) the faster you are able to attempt to guess the hash required for the next block. |

signature campaign and account selling.
If you really a newbie and it is really your first account you will start to get some decent money in 3 months
Signature campaign requires a lot of free time and patience, so does account farming. If you cannot post constructively, you won't be able to join any campaign as all of them requires constructive posts. Account farming is pretty risky as the market demand is very low and you would require time to farm them. I would recommend OP to work and convert them to BTC. |

you should try to invest in stocks , or maybe just bitcoin and wait couple of years until the price pumps up
also you can invest in gambling sites like just-dice(i think they are the best site where you can invest)
Thats right! Casino investment are the best way... Put 125000 to red and if u lose then double it up with 250000. U wont miss... ^^ I hope you are kidding, you would surely lose your money. I think you misunderstood his meaning. Just-dice allows users to invest in their bank other than betting. This can be a way to profit since mathematically, the house edge is -ve therefore the probability of losing the funds when gambling is higher. But the price of the currency they use could go down and you will use all profits. There are plenty of casinos offering investment options in Bitcoin. Sure it is a risk, but just-dice is the most trustable right now and clam is relatively stable and you can also claim free clams if your address is old with a non dust value. |

What are the minimum requirements for selling your signature space to advertisers? I'm curious as to how this actually works and if you actually get paid? All it basically comes down to is, your promoting they're services right?
Link here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0, self explanatory. The higher a member you are, and the more you post, the more you get paid  MEPH Just a add on, some campaigns has a hard limit or flat rate such that once you hit the limit, you won't get paid for those post past the limits or make a certain amount of posts based on requirement and you will get paid. |

Try to come up with a concept of a game or something for people to earn btc. Like a faucet where you get a fixed amount and there are a lot of levels that increase the reward of a faucet. That way people will stay because leveling and getting better is fun, right? That would be my suggestion as something that I would like to see. That is pretty much only for minority of the newbies. Most newbies who come to this forum knows that faucet is a complete waste of time and thus not using them. Webhosting costs is a factor of your earnings too. You can try to buy servers and reselling them here at a slightly higher price. |

brainwallet .. if you can remember a 128bit sentence
I dont get brainwallet, its impossible to remember that many words.. Do you guys even read the thread? OP is trying to hide his coin by increasing anonymity, not trying to have better security. And also, brainwallet has several vulnerabilities. |

that makes no sense, if there was no loss why did they not simply fix the security breach by migrating to a new DB, reset password etc.? VERY fishy  If they get hacked, most users would lose trust in them and leave them. They probably think that they have no confidence of holding onto user's private information. If they are insolvent, they shouldn't be able to refund all the users. i think btc is on the hacker radar now. will 2015 be the year of hacked coin?
Bullshit. Poor security practices are result of hacking of exchanges, this can always happen with government organizations and bank if they do not have good security. It is not related with vulnerability in Bitcoin protocol. |

It's an @coinbase.com address, it seems is not phishing at least.
Do you know that sending addresses can be faked too, right? Err.... Is this true? Can the sending addresses be faked? I'll be in big trouble. I have always trusted the emails coming from by official Bank email. there is an official email for example something like "support[at]coinbase.com" this cannot be fake the fake Email would be like this" "support@[similar fake address like coinbase].com" like coiinbase No, wrong. Email can be faked by editing the header of the email. They however, can't change the IP or domain which the email originated from. They would most probably end up in your spam folder(for gmail). Always check the headers of the email to identify the authenticity of the email. |

I didn't have success investing on BTCJam but I think they added a refund or something in case someone would want to run with your money.
Cloudminers are shutting down due to low BTC price, volatility and what now, so at this point I wouldn't recommend them. The maintenance fee is exactly the amount your miners make. If you want to grow your coins, I suggest trading. After you have learned how to do it properly, of course. The most BTCJam does is to send them for arbitration which is seriously the most useless thing to do. Unless you live in the same place as the person, you cannot recover them online. BTCJam is known for allowing scammers to register with fake ID so most of the time, arbitration is useless completely. |

Sorry, I just want to ask. How to verify it's fake or real PM ? Hey Buddy, it's me, Candy !
I just edit the author and UID the sender, Quickseller never send a single message to me. If the PM was come to you, you can report that PM, so 'the person you report to' or all Global Moderators and Admins can see the PM. Admins can see them without reporting too. If it is in other's inbox, you will have to ask an Admin to verify or tell that person to report the PM to a Global Moderator or Admin(person who is online currently) and tell him/her to tell whether the verification was positive or not to you or in that specific thread. -MZ You can choose who to report the PM to by using the dropdown box. Admins can see PMs but they will not specifically do it unless you request it. |
