7881  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Damn fees! on: January 27, 2018, 09:25:48 AM
These fees are a pain in the ass for persons like me who are working on a very tight budget. I'm aiming for low costs coins and decided to simulate a withdrawal from binance for 500 TRX. Transaction fee 161 TRX. Really?

This is the problem the transactions fees are getting high. Even you will transfer or withdraw coin in any exchange their is always fees. Let's hope one bitcoin stabalized the fees cost would be lower.

I do not like the idea of sending my money into other coins, these alts loose their value really quickly,look at deeponion, ripple, Bch, not at all worth doing it. The following are my suggestions to save on fees.

1) Switch to segwit based address.
2)Try and transfer at different times of the day
3) Try sending big amounts rather than small ones.

I have tried transferring 1k three times in different time of the day I ended up paying 12, 6 and 2$ respectively.
People have reported segwit is helping lower the fees.

i noticed merits param in my account and i don't understand what is it ?

read this post from the very beginning carefully! There is almost all information about the new parameter!
Also, I advise you to pay attention to this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0

It's really simple according to your rank you'll get merits, this no one can take away from you. The Smerits you should give to deserving posts, and What merits others give a part you can give back. It's a innovative move to fight spam and make this forum great. Let's hope it goes well, all people need to keep on giving merits to deserving posts so it goes smooth.

Also DO NOT BUY OR SELL merits you'll get a negative for indulging in it.

SAF 194 all-out !! And I would say advantage India. If India can get at least 200 in the second innings, it would be really tough for the Proteas chase it down. Mind you they are known for choking & Indian bowlers are on top of their game. It’s India’s game to lose from here, Bowlers have done exceptionally well on this series, not one century from SA. But, it's the batsmen who have let us down.

I wouldn't say that it is advantage India yet. India might have fought back well with the ball and restricted South Africa's lead in the first innings, but we must remember that their problems in this tour have been with their batting. They still need to set a fighting total for South Africa to chase.

So far second innings batting performance is much better than first innings. I do agree that Indian batsman is not so comfortable in playing on these fast tracks but now they got an equal chance to win this match. Just need a couple of very good partnerships to build a good total in this innings. if they can add slowly another 200+ runs in this innings then they can try to win this match. Today's first session is very important to India, if they don't lose more wickets then they can add more runs to the total. 

Nope India lost 5 wickets just for 134 runs. Kholi and Rahane were playing well I thought they can make some kind partnership but just now Kholi out for 41 runs. I don't think remaining batsman will stand for a long time and make at least 150+ runs. If they give 250+ runs target to SA, then they have a chance to win this match or esle SA will win. Now India leads by 135 runs.

India looks in strong position to win this match unless it's abandoned, the Indian captain has decided against it and now I feel team India will look to steal maximum runs. However this is the most dangerous pitch to be battling on, if India crosses 250 its team India winning it right away, otherwise the clamour for Kohli to be sacked will grow but he's done nothing wrong actually.

Hi, i have a question for my gambler's buddies as i'm perplexed by this. I have a friend who really wishes to gamble, but he is not allowed to because his uncle lost his entire assets and some million's and his grandfather to lost another million or so (they're filthy rich). So due to this facts he is barred from gambling, they believe he'll loose money to, they're stopping him on past incidents and i'm really tired of explaining them they're wrong, what do you'll think, anyone else faces such issues?

Do you think bitcoin will turn into a crime tool? Many people use bitcoin to do some illegal activities, what do you think?

This is not true at all but complete bull shit spread by governments, centralised bankers who know they're loosing their plot, I'm surprised how easily people get convinced that bitcoins is being used for illegal activities. In a recent survey it was clearly written less than 1% used it for criminal activities so don't believe this fud.

7887  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / 50 cents bringing much needed positive publicity for Bitcoin. on: January 26, 2018, 04:22:52 AM
Just read in the news that 50 cents became a millionaire, thanks to letting people buy his album using Bitcoins. My feeling is this shall create a spark of positive news and many more famous persons shall come out and speak about it. Once this starts to happen, people will be bound back to Bitcoins, cause the fud will disappear and people shall buy and sell bitcoin. This shall be a setback to the government to, who's trying hard to keep Bitcoins at bay. What do you'll think, if more and more famous person speak up could the prices go up as more people will be drawn to it.?

Some people think bitcoin is a bubble, what is its meaning and value?

Those are the people who said earth isn't round but what happened in the end. Bitcoin is a crypto currency and it's not a bubble. This is the fud spread by the government and centralised banker's as they're loosing control over users. They cannot see us achieving financial freedom, and they'll do everything they can to stop us, but we shall never back out.

Bitcoin was 1 cent in 2009 and 19k last year how is it a bubble.

7889  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Financial ratings agency Weiss is horribly wrong on: January 25, 2018, 04:51:34 PM
If you're not aware Financial ratings agency Weiss was going to release grades for the cryptos, this was a very important step for crypto world, and I was looking forward to it since long now.

Grades are given with A being the highest and, they have the audacity to rank ethereum high and give Bitcoin a C, they have horribly wronged and I urged the community to voice their concerns, hope they'll rectify it.

Also does it makes even one bit of sense that they did it, I think they have done it for publicity nothing else. Open to discussion now, really hope the community makes their displeasure known to them.

Alaves vs Valencia - Valencia to progress to the next round
Real Madrid vs Leganes - Easy win for Real here
Real Madrid are currently losing against Leganes and it’s not really surprising at all since Real Madrid have been very terrible this season and what irritates me is that they are playing at home too. They are just making gamblers lose their money.

Clamorous defeat at home, and elimination, for Real Madrid that in January is already out of the copa de rey and the fight for the victory in  Liga!
 if Real Madrid does not win the champion's league will be a disastrous 2018.
Without a doubt Zidane is going to face the sack anytime from now, He has enjoyed two lucky years at the helm of the club and we all know that the greatness of a manager is determined by how much he is able to fix a crisis in his team. Zidane doesn't seem to have any idea on how to fix this whole thing and he has been given considerably more time than they even gave Benitez during his short reign.
True Zidane decisions caused this exit to be replaced by an overflowing philosophy by replacing the whole team. However, Real are still the the Champions League to get out also .Leganes beating Real Madrid is a well deserved win by them and i was not surprised by the defeat because the team has been suffering for several months in addition to the stubbornness of the coach
Madrid fans should not be worried that the Real would not be crowned of any title this season don't see any improvement from them first when the problems appeared it was expected to be fixed by the time they face PSG but it didn't happen and it wouldn't be.

I'm very much surprised that Zidane is yet the coach of Real Madrid, he's made horrible decisions and he needs to go right away, had it been any other coach by now he would have been sacked. The only thing from him getting sacked is the psg tie, I expect real Madrid to be thrashed badly 5 - 6 goals and with that Zidane carrier. What has he done to Real Madrid, the giants now look like dwarves.

Hey guys good news here. Hope this will affect bitcoin price and it will grow up. What do you think?

This is a mixed news I would say, we all knew this was going to be the end result, Koreans have way to much money into Bitcoins, and they were never going to ban it. This is a classic example of winning a war, but with high casualties.

1) the very basic principle of Bitcoin was and is anonymity, now it'll be very easy for the authorities to know who owns how much. Which kills the function why Bitcoins was created.

2) The government shall nicely earn additional tax, and in case funds shall be stolen they'll say not their responsibility. Again it's a loss.

Considering that Korea is a huge market for Bitcoins, the victory has come at a huge cost, cause other countries could follow their lead and that shall be disastrous in the long run.
7892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: how long you can stay without gambling? on: January 25, 2018, 09:42:20 AM
Some of the gamblers are addicted so much to these casino games so they can't stay without playing even a single day.

I can stop completely without gambling and can control myself.

How about you and how long you can control yourself for not playing these games?

I have a mixed answer for this tricky question, I am super glued to gambling, if after oxygen I need something to survive is, it's the thrill of gambling, I am so happy to gamble my life away, that I don't really like to stop. However my girlfriend doesn't like this, so whenever we're together on weekends, or I have this urge to be with her, I need to be off gambling, crazy woman she is but I love her, so I do make small sacrifices. Luckily It only last a few hour's, but it's really difficult to do it nevertheless.

Hey,

The recent incident with downtime was affected by an issue in the GRA Datacentre overnight, and full details can be found at http://travaux.ovh.com/?do=details&id=29536

Regards,
Alex.

Thanks for the update Alex, I hope everything is going smooth now and I don't think anyone was effected here, we all understand it can happen, such petty issues won't effect the users of bitdice. By the way Alex is bitdice going to add more alts coin this year, as there a growing trend for them to be included?

Amazing how'd you opened an slot tentatively to accept the new DT member whom you declined an entry earlier.
What's the point of this post? That's what DarkStar said when he "declined" The Pharmacist last time:

Username: The Pharmacist
Post Count: 6951
BTC Address: 1As24mzicrYQLXDEWKGQ8ZjeyvYhgWLRAx

I realize the campaign is full, but I'm giving it a shot here.  

I'd *probably* accept you if we had open slots, but not under the exception unfortunately.

Now that there was an open slot, he accepted him. What's the issue?

wait a minute... The Pharmacist = DarkStar = Lauda = actmyname = thermos confirmed? :0

I don't think there's anything wrong, he already specified if a slot came up he would give him, I don't see any wrong in here. It's simple someone either left the campaign or was removed due to bad post, and he must have liked the applicant post quality so it's not difficult to see how a spot was opened and why it went to him. Just be positive if your posts are good you may be selected next time.
7895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: With which coin would you like to wager in a casino? on: January 24, 2018, 03:48:29 AM
as BTC Price is quiet high and especially the fee I would like to ask

With which coin a player would like to gamble in a casino?

please let me know (serious) if you want me to add another coin


Yes with bitcoins prices rising and fees going as high as 19$ it's only a matter of time before alts take over in casinos I think you should add bch to low transactions fee and quick to transact makes it a hit, then other coin I would go for is ethereum otherwise I don't like any other alts definitely not using dodge coin ever it's the shittiest coin ever made. Though currently there's a way to reduce fees in btc is by making or using a segwit address people are saying it's reducing fees.
7896  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: January 23, 2018, 09:22:41 AM
Stop gambling and loosing money, and start to invest. As a new investor, you just can loose money with gambling. You dont know the market, and you dont know how to act, whats a realistic price increase, whats a hype and whats not. So you dont know how to play on this market, and thats why you cant get any successes. So just invest and wait, until the price rises, and sell then and take your profit.

How do you know that your investment shall continue to make money for you, look at 2008 who had thought the market would crash but it yet did, now let's assume I'm a investor and I invest in Bitcoins which is a gamble what does that make me a gambler or a investor? Investing in market is not guaranteed to make money for you, it's a risky business but gambling is very clear it doesn't give you false hope. So I like gambling over investing more the potential to make more money.
7897  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Finally Bitcoin is becoming normal on: January 23, 2018, 04:36:47 AM
Normal is not always nice this confirms worst fears that people are staying away from bitcoins and that is very bad for people who're dealing in it. It means that transactions are not happening, and this could spell doom for bitcoins, I'm happy with high transaction time till more people are actively involved in it. This keeps the momentum going up.

any truth to this?

seems okay or at least better than a ban?

Sounds like good news??

https://cointelegraph.com/news/s-korea-to-tax-crypto-exchanges-242-percent-in-line-with-existing-tax-policy

No tax is good on any currency it's bad always bad. I also read a horrible thing that people need to disclose their real name while trading  that's so bad, this opens up legal people to catch on you anytime. This is so bad for everyone involved in the transaction, I hope the South Koreans topple this government in fresh elections, close their work and make government reconsider it.
7899  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin saving is not safe on: January 22, 2018, 11:49:30 AM
I think Bitcoins saving is quite risky, because compared to other forms of investment such as gold or dollars, cryptocurrency is more risky because the possibility being hacked is so high, we could be stolen bitcoin or the ability the network system attacked, you lost all bitcoin in the second. In addition,fluctuations in bitcoin price are highly impacted by the market so investment in bitcoin is unsafe solution. Roll Eyes Roll Eyes


How is it unsafe? You can buy yourself a Trevor wallet and be safe for life, make a paper wallet and lock it in a safe. Or my best idea make a electrum wallet and make a pin and it's unhackable cause no one will ever know your pin, and then they can't do any transaction. Even when it was down, we didn't worry cause without our pin it was yet safe. So I don't see any harm of it being hacked.

This bitcoin cash is making a really big difference so fast it is now even listed on few gambling sites i thought for something like this to happen it would take time but this went on too quickly and now the price has also started to increase don't know what else we can expect in the upcoming days

Do you have a list of the gambling sites you saw that accept Bitcoin Cash?
I have safedice accepting bitcoin cash for gambling , the bankroll is 200 bitcoin cash and the site is already in 4 bitcoin cash profit.
Even lucky games accepts bitcoin cash for gambling, for now the number of sites present is less but as the altcoin is getting more demand and the price is increasing we will see more sites  accepting it soon
That is interesting that they accept bitcoincash as I didn't know any casinos did and almost right after it forked too.
Good news if I ever think of using it to gamble with instead of using bitcoin just as an alternative to think of using in the near future.
As I hear it is still good enough to mine to get it without as much difficulty as bitcoin or ethereum is.

Just yesterday I had written in prime Dice Ann that they should accept it, as stunna had asked us which coin they would prefer, they're actually considering alts, Bitcoin Cash is the best alt coin for casinos as it's low fee is simply the best and since I got it for free, I'm trying to get casinos to accept it, so I can make a good fortune lol. Many casino are already accepting it, and I feel sooner all shall.
