Why do you have to deal with it?

You can check this article for legality of bitcoin:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country_or_territory

It has been declared a currency in a lot of places, for legal purposes, I mean.

Hello guys!

I just want to ask if there's an existing offer already that accepts bitcoins by purchasing airline tickets to a specific destination? I'm an adventure type of guy, just finished my vacation last Monday. I usually travel like 3 to 4 times a year locally by plane.

Any thoughts on this guys? Thanks in advance.

Here you go:

What do you mean by "bitcoins aren't real"?

The genius of bitcoin is precisely the scarcity, the impossibility of double spend.
I mean they not tangile. its all virtual reality.

All software is like that, you can't deny the usefulness of the Internet or computers, it is not virtual reality, it's software, virtual reality also made with software and computers.

If you can buy beer with it, it's real.

Check out this article:

The ICO Bubble  https://medium.com/@josh_nussbaum/the-ico-bubble-6cadefaf8cbc

If you think you're knowledgeable enough to pick the winning projects go ahead, but bear in mind many of these ICOs are vaporware and the only business model is making money out of suckers buying their worthless tokens.

Im here to introduce PrisonCoin

As we all know the US locks up fellow citizens on a record braking level, Private Prison booms and Schools became worse and worse which leads to even more prisoners.

Our corrent Prison population is about 2.23 Million inmates and as many coins will be in circulation, however more coins will be mined, growth of prison population is between 2-5% a year and this amount will be able to mined.

The first 2.23 Million coins will be premined but sold off entirely in a public ICO

0.1 Percent of any coin available will be distributed to Prisoners we are working on a cash card which prisoners can actually use in Prison as payment Method or they will receive it once they leave the prison system. We plan on working on a contract where we distribute those coins to the prisoners, cash or debit cards will also be available in the near future

We will also try to peg the Coin  to 1 to the prison population and either create more coins to catch up or also send coins that are to much to bogus addresses were they will be destroyed.

Make money now of our Prison population and help them the same time.


If interessted on working or contributing to this coin/ Project send me an email to admin@darknetguru.org


Is that your business plan?

Sell useless coins to suckers on the internet and then give away 0.1 percent of those useless coins to inmates in the USA?

You can't, a minimum of 20 stellars has to stay in the account.

It's time to cash out, not to buy in.

We are in bubble, putting money now is quite risky, specially putting money into start ups, but it's your money.

Good luck.

892  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: cancel my unconfirmed transactions, bounty on: May 18, 2017, 10:16:29 AM
You need to double spend your bitcoin, create a new transaction to an address you own.

Check here:

Attempting a Replace-By-Fee (RBF) double spend transaction

What is an RBF transaction

A Replace-By-Fee transaction is a transaction that is nearly identical to your stuck transaction but pays a higher transaction fee. Since the original transaction most likely does not use Opt-in RBF, the RBF transaction that we will be creating will be considered a double spend and marked as such. The transaction uses Full-RBF and thus may still take a little bit longer to confirm as it is technically a double spend.

The difference between the types of RBF transactions

Replace-By-Fee transactions have 3 different types, First-Seen-Safe(FSS) RBF, Full RBF, and Opt-in RBF. FSS RBF requires that the RBF transaction include the same outputs as the transaction it replaces and consumes the same inputs. Full RBF means that the transaction is simply a double spend of another transaction but pays a higher transaction fee than the one(s) it replaces. Opt-in RBF means that the RBF transaction can only replace a transaction that has Opted-in to allowing itself to be replaced. Opt-in RBF follows [urlhttps://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0125.mediawiki]BIP 125[/url].

The instructions given in this section will be for making Full RBF transactions. Opt-in RBF transactions will be described in the "Avoiding Stuck Transactions In The Future" section.

How to make a Full RBF transaction

Making a Full RBF transaction depends entirely on the wallet that you are using. Some wallet support the advanced functionality required to make a Full RBF transaction, others do not. The following will be guides for each wallet on how to make a Full RBF transaction with that wallet. In general the procedure is to remove the unconfirmed transaction from the wallet and then resend the Bitcoin but with a higher transaction fee.

When making a Full RBF transaction, the transaction should include the recommended fee rate at the time of creating the transaction. See the "Avoiding this issue in the future" section for help with that.

Bitcoin Core

Bitcoin Core makes making Full RBF transactions very easy. Simply go to the transactions list, right click the transaction that is stuck, and choose the "Abandon Transaction" option.

If that option is greyed out, then you must restart Bitcoin Core with the -walletbroadcast=0 option and then you should be able to use "Abandon Transaction".

If the above two options fail for some reason, then you can start Bitcoin Core with the -zapwallettxes option to clear all unconfirmed transactions from your wallet.

Once the transaction is either Abandoned or cleared from the wallet, you can simply go to the Send tab and send the Bitcoin again but make sure that you include a sufficient transaction fee.

Bitcoin Armory

Bitcoin Armory also makes making Full RBF transactions very easy. Go to Help > Clear All Unconfirmed Transactions and restart Armory. This will clear all of the unconfirmed transactions from the wallet and thus allow you to create the Full RBF transaction. Once Armory has restarted, simply send the Bitcoin again as you normally would but be sure to include a sufficient transaction fee.

MultiBit HD

MultiBit HD allows for making Full RBF transactions fairly easy as well. Go to Manage Wallet and click on Repair Wallet and follow the wizard. This process will clear all of the unconfirmed transactions from your wallet much like Bitcoin Core and Armory do. Once repair wallet has completed, simply send the Bitcoin again as you normally would.

Wallets that do not allow you to or ones that I don't know how to make Full RBF transactions

Not all wallets support the creation of Full RBF transactions. Many wallets do not allow clearing all unconfirmed transactions to allow for making Full RBF transactions. The following is a list of wallet software which do not support Full RBF transactions. If a wallet on this list does support FullRBF transactions, please let me know and provide instructions for that so I can add it above.

  • Blockchain.info and web wallets in general
  • Electrum (supports Opt-in RBF, but not Full RBF)
  • Mycelium
  • MultiBit Classic
  • Bitcoin Wallet for Android
  • Breadwallet
  • Copay
893  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We are paying miners $5000, undeservedly on: May 18, 2017, 09:28:06 AM
i've just realized that the amount of total fee that we are paying miners because of the size of mempool these days has exceeded 2.5BTC and is nearing 3BTC.
that is about $5000 that miners are receiving undeservedly just because they are not adopting the scaling solution!

that is 24% of what they gain from block reward (12.5BTC=$2200)


People continue to put money into bitcoin even when miners are blocking the upgrade, transaction continue to pile up and fees are increase and people continue to pay for it.

Market is rewarding miners for blocking scaling, so I guess bitcoin is fine as it is.

If price and transactions start falling then, maybe, it's time for upgrade and miners will finally do it, but they have no good reason to do it when price is increasing.

We just hope they don't kill bitcoin before they start realizing that they have to act on it. Old and regular users are already frustrated with this and newbies are getting turned off waiting for confirmation.

Bitcoin will survive miners blocking upgrade, just some use cases are being killed right now, but after upgrade the possibilities are huge.

I bought a load of SC between 48 and 60 satoshi, sold everything between 110 and 165 satoshi, it is very hard to predict if they are going to get so high, but I got my profit.

Will trade again in the future.

It's old news, but just for your information:

http://www.coindesk.com/ripple-jed-mccaleb-settle-suit-over-1-million-in-disputed-funds/


As part of the settlement, McCaleb has sold his equity in Ripple, and has agreed to sale controls on 5.3bn XRP owned by him and his children. An additional 2bn XRP will be donated to an as-yet-undisclosed charitable fund.

The sale controls are tied to daily volume in XRP markets. For the first year, according to Ripple, McCaleb will be unable to sell more than 0.5% of average daily volume "for each day of the week, including weekends and holidays".

During the second and third years of the agreement, this amount grows to 0.75%, while it accounts for 1.0% in the fourth year. Beyond the fourth year, the amount is set to 1.5%.



The current price of of Ripple is 40 cents. Do I have to count out for you how rich the founder of Stellar is?


Does that makes Jed a billionaire?

That makes family Jed multibillionaires atm... not bad Wink. Let's forget that he probably also gave himself a fair share of Lumens Wink.

I dont know who's the big shot in crypto now... Vitalik or Jed. I think it's Jed.

Dude, he's richer than Satoshi.

All this suckers pumping XRP and Jed dumping on them, what a sweet deal, only in bitcoinland...

How long will it take me to make 1BTC using Faucets? Which high paying instant faucet would you recommend?


If average reward is 150 satoshis and you make the claim 20 times a day every day, it will take you 100 years with current conditions.

You have to take into account bitcoin valuation and with that decreased reward in terms of satoshis.

150 satoshi * 20 claims/day * 365 days * 100 years = 109500000 satoshi = 1.095 BTC

You need to take profits at some point, if you don't your portfolio will just go up and down.

Try not to sell anything on red, and realize some profits.
