Some people want to do it anonymously i guess, or leave the trace out of their main bank account, or distrust a Centralized exchange since the point of BTC is just that.
I do it in Canada now and it takes at most 24 hours to receive the money in my bank account and buying with interact is instant and cost a flat fee of 1CAD$
Besides anonymity, people have had issues with Coinbase mysteriously closing accounts and preventing people from withdrawing the coins that they bought or deposited. Also, some people are not comfortable with sharing all of their personal info with an exchange.

There is a web application which creates for each user its own account in wallet. Main problem is the bitcoin daemon with time becomes slow and almost does not load new blocks from network. I reckon the reason is the huge number of "move" RPC command (which transfer coins from main account to user's account). In these conditions Bitcoin daemon uses more than 50% of CPU and 30% of MEM. Main problem is how to force daemon to load new blocks. Any suggestions?
Get better hardware that has a faster cpu, faster/more RAM, and a disk with a high read/write speed (e.g. SSD) since a lot of those operations involve the wallet and constantly reading and writing the wallet to and from the disk.

Yes, there are a few signature campaigns which accept Junior Members. In my opinion, Yobit.net signature campaign is the best one for beginners, because the post are counted by an bot several times a day.
How does the bot make sure the quality of the posts is good? It doesn't, which is partly why there are many yobit sig spammers. It tends to have the worst and most spammers but since hilariousandco began to run the campaign a some time ago, the campaign has been cracking down on spammers.

Im not spammer.I have written them in the light of my knowledge,i dont even know the size of the transaction is factor in the confirmation,i have not seen it at anywhere.
The size of the transaction does matter since the fee is actually fee per kilobyte (btc/kb). Since you are essentially paying for space in a block, if you have a big transaction, you should pay more for that space so the fee will be higher.

I'm running 0.11.2, and I've got a peer running XT. I saw this 0.12.0 running for about an hour this morning. There weas also a 0.11.99 which I believe is a test version. Good to see there are some improvements on the way. Does anyone know what they are?
Any satoshi client ending in 99 is a build of the matter branch from the git repo. 0.12 is a build from the 0.12 branch but 0.12 isn't ready for release.

2016 will be the year where we can expect different Bitcoin implementations in the wild. Until now it was enough to have one Bitcoin reference implementation in form of code but what we need now is a specification of Bitcoin in form of Requests for Comments. The wild west time should end now. Boy's you've had your fun. We were impressed of your egos. Grow up or leave please. Now we need professionalism to continue the success story of Bitcoin! http://www.rfc-editor.orghttp://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2223.txtBitcoin related stuff should not be governed by the ietf but rather by a specific group for bitcoiners. Also, there already is an RFC like thing in bitcoin, BIPs. Bitcoin is specified by these BIPs and the bitcoin white paper with the reference implementation to provide exactly that.

i. Does Purse.io work without Coinbase?
ii. Can I use Purse.io on Amazon.in?
Yes and yes iii. Which rate Purse.io uses for BTC to FIAT coversion? Coinbase rate or their own rate?
The rate is essentially determined by the bitcoin seller. It is what determines the discount.

What does the blockchain have to do with machine learning? It is a distributed ledger, there is no machine learning.

What does "staked" mean?
It means that the address was posted for a primary purpose of proving ownership of the account at a later date. The proof of account ownership is a message signed by that staked address.
|
|
|
I would like to ask how old the signed message was staked or posted by that account? If the account was too old (5 Months+) I would like to bid from the starting bid.
The address was staked about 3 months ago.

I am auctioning a full member account that has some potential. Full account details (with the usual obfuscation) can be found here: http://www.bctalkaccountpricer.info/?token=ikkkst6dPosts: 120+ Activity: 120+ Trust: Neutral Starting bid: 0.03 BTCMinimum increment: 0.005 BTCBuy It Now: 0.07 BTCAuction will end on January 16th 11:59 PM Forum time. If you buy, you must use an escrow from this list: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=855778.0 and you must pay the fees, if any. A signed message can be provided upon request.

Your second transaction (bfee081b32d83ca69703ef3cbf5ef5b68c43df7bd79ff7f41e9e54e015c7ce0c) has a 1 satoshi fee, which is way too small to be a good fee. The first transaction is spending from that unconfirmed transaction. Since it relies on an unconfirmed input, it itself cannot be confirmed until that input is also confirmed, thus it remains unconfirmed.

Looking at program rules for bitcoind and QT, I could see that there were no restrictions to incoming traffic. I also tried temporarily disabling the firewall. I still get MyIP:8333 is unreachable on bitnodes.21.co. My router is a D-Link DIR-655, Hardware Version: B1, Firmware Version: 2.11NA. After setting up port forwarding in my router for 8333 directly to the computer running Bitcoin core and eliminating my firewall as the problem, I'm not sure what to try next. Is there something else I can check that could be preventing my Bitcoin client from accepting incoming connections from other nodes? There isn't anything else that I can think of. Are you sure that you disabled all of the firewalls, including the OS firewall, Antivirus firewall, etc? Also, it may be possible that your ISP is also blocking connections in which case you can't do anything about it. Another thing is that bitnodes may not be connected to you yet which would explain why they can't see you. If you are willing to share your IP address, I can also try connecting to you and seeing if it works.

... Yeah I've figured it out few minutes ago but as I've said in my previous post there's no input value: ...
The link above may have what you are looking for. Ok thanks, I've missed that UPDATE: it took me few minutes to get it, correct me if I'm wrong -> http://pastebin.com/keYrsW46<?php require_once("json-rpc.php"); $rpc = new Connector("username", "password", "127.0.0.1", "18333"); $txid = "7f502f28ca8d162300a1bbc8cb7dfa6f38533596ac97c29e1d1de9ca614ae350", $txinfo = $rpc->getrawtransaction($txid, 1); // get info from received tx $txinput = $txinfo["vin"][0]["txid"]; // result: fd018b006c8702139d1c230460c1a71f99d364d59c339e26cc8588cf622a5be9 $spent = $txinfo["vout"][0]["value"] + $txinfo["vout"][1]["value"]; // result: 0.73000000 + 10.96563674 = 11.69563674 $txinfo = $rpc->getrawtransaction($txinput, 1); // get info from input tx of received tx $fee = $txinfo["vout"][1]["value"] - $spent; // result: 11.69569708 - 11.69563674 = 0.00006034 print($fee); ?>
Looks good.

I'm actually doing it via Bitcoin API and PHP. I tried gettransaction but it doesn't print the fee amount.
gettransaction will not give you the fee if you received the transaction, only if you sent. You should use getrawtransaction. With that command you can retrieve the vout values of all of the outpoints of the inputs and the output. Then just use those the calculate the fee.

Even with free electricity, you will not have 100% profit. You still need to pay for equipment and it will probably take a few months in order to recover the amount that was paid for the miners. Furthermore, you must keep in mind that every two weeks the difficulty changes. Difficulty increases will reduce your profitability and if it were to increase enough, it could possible result in the miners becoming obsolete. Also, you will probably have to upgrade all of the equipment every couple of months as new hardware advances are made. Those new generation equipment will increase the difficulty and could render your older miners obsolete.
If you are not scamming (as many people will assume so since this is your first post), I recommend that you have some people escrow the funds in a multisig address. They will hold onto the funds (but will be unable to spend them unless there is agreement among you and the escrows to spend) until enough has been raised to buy equipment. This will help you establish legitimacy and reduce the risk to your potential investors.
Good luck!

It would be nice to see this version appear on the Armory home page, since it is a very important compatibility fix.
...and it still hasn't to date. I wonder why. Is this version 0.93.3 posted in the OP identical to version 0.93.2 offered on the official Armory homepage then albeit with a different label? IIRC they are not the same. You can check the hashes to make sure.

What the hell is this puzzle?!?! I haven't the faintest idea in how to solve this.

I want to know if I can pause (and then resume) the sync. in Armory. According to my current internet speed it will take 1 week to finish, I cannot run my PC for 1 week cont. So can I pause it and run it on specific hours every day?
Yes. It will continue wherever it stopped. You just need to shut down armory properly so it doesn't corrupt the databases.
