Amazon have made losses since many years. Amazon has not shown yet to have a profitable business concept. Thus, from this point of view, Ebay is above Amazon, even without Paypal. i think ebay will meet the fate of Yahoo. Paypal was ebay's cash machine. Without it, Ebay will be a less profitable internet company with limited growth.
we have openbazar coming, who care about paypal, it's better to promote a decentralized exchange then a old centralized one and anyway amazon was always above ebey, ebay started to lose its position, since when amazon has become big enough

This does not convince me. I have got a lot of experience trading altcoins and I can name you dozens of coins under 100 sats which have minimum movements since weeks and months. Even if you spread your investments on 5-10 coins, it will not prevent you from much loss. I guess you had got luck by choosing some good coins. But you can not derive a profitable trading strategy from it. So, your trading theory is that every altcoin lower than 100 sats rises automatically within days? Usually it does, but only if there is some interest in that coin, i mean dont buy up all junk coins. I edited the OP and put there to buy only coins with daily volume >0.1 btc

You also need to delete all config files. That error means the coin is already running in the background or another process is using the port that bitstar needs, to fix this there are a few things to try. - Check the task manager to make sure bitstar isn't still running in the background
- Reboot your pc
- change the config so it uses a different port (port=differentporthere eg port=13253)
[/quote] The program is not running in the background I don't think. I deleted the whole wallet including uninstalling the previous version and I still get the same message. change the config so it uses a different port (port=differentporthere eg port=13253) That's the bitstar.conf file, a text document that I created with notepad and copy and pasted the info from a previous post and put in the roaming folder, correct? because I couldn't tell that that made any difference at all. Maybe I'm not doing it right. I don't know. [/quote]

Welchen Anteil an der Krise in Griechenland hat der Euro und wären Bitcoins die klügere Alternative für das Land? Der Bitcoin-Experte Aaron Koenig ist zumindest der Ansicht, dass es den einzelnen Bürgern mit dem "Geld ohne Staat" besser gehen würde. Im Gespräch mit unserem Portal erklärt er, warum. Wie ich finde, ein interessantes Interview. http://www.gmx.net/magazine/digital/bitcoins-griechenland-retten-30772828

Interesting, but I am sure, no one I know and who is not into crypto coins yet, will not get interested because of this app.

Simple answer: there is no certainty that an altcoin will rise. I heard the strategy several times, just to buy altcoins with a price less than 100 sats stating that it will rise sooner or later. But in my eyes, this trading strategy is nonsense. They only rise because they got pumped. There is no real value behind a rise, for that reason it is pure gambling and not really predictable.

I am not certain of it. Ebay needs to find new ways to make profit. Accepting virtual currencies like Bitcoin could be an option. I am pretty sure, Ebay already took this option seriously into consideration internally. Wouldn't it be great if e-bay adds bitcoins as a method of payment ? it would be great for sure. but don't think they will any time soon, if ever. they will only do it if the demand is there. i'm sure when amazon will accept bitcoin, ebay will surely follow.

This behaviour is absolutely paradoxic. Generations of behavioral scientists will have a new test case for research activities A grand manifestation of the Broken Window Fallacy unfolds before our eyes. Amazing.
I'm surprised some cheeky Greek didn't start printing New Drachmas for the hell of it.
Definitely, the government creates all social, economic and every other problem in our lives. And then it poses as the messiah, saviour, the angel, that will repair /fix /resolve anything. They destroyed the whole economy and now every sheep is looking towards them to save them.

Bin unregelmäßig in der Stadt. In welchem Rythmus und wo genau finden denn die Treffen statt? Gude, wenn du morgen zeit hast komm beim Bitcoin Frankfurt Treff vorbei. ( ab 19 Uhr die Zentrale FFM - Bornheimer straße) Letzen Monat wollte jemand Bitcoins gegen Bares kaufen.

Wenn der nächste Pumper mit genügend Munition (in Form vom Kapital) kommt, dann wird das sicherlich nicht der letzte Litecoin-Pump gewesen sein. Hallo sofu
Wie meinst du das? Wird die enorme Kursentwickeln nochmals stattfinden?

Die Nachricht finde ich jetzt auch nicht sehr neu. Das Spyware nach wallet.dats sucht und Keylogger Passwörter oder Eingaben abfangen können ist ja reichlich bekannt. Ich glaub der Krone.at Journalist hätte mal ein weniger besser recherchiert.

You are right, but likely, it is just a reflection of the increased interest in Bitcoins in common. Most Latin Americans probably don't buy their Bitcoins over Bitpay. So the real new interest and purchases must be much higher. 638 is not a huge number; it is just 20 transactions per day. They should stop publishing percentage increases over a small base. That said, good to hear about Bitcon adoption increasing in the developing world.

I mean regulation as a collection of rules that all "legal" Bitcoin companies has to follow. Every institutional investor needs statutory requirements in order to be able to invest debt capital into Bitcoins or crypto currencies in common. I am personally are not a fan of regulation. But if Bitcoin should become mainstream and if it should create more value (in order to become the rich new elite ) then regulation is absolutely needed A lot of people are upset about the increased regulation that Bitcoin is seeing.
That regulation came about as a direct result of Mt.Gox (and several others) failing to honor their commitments, and is mostly intended to prevent a recurrence. Given what the effin' amateurs whose pretenses or attempts at doing solid business have cost Bitcoin holders so far, it's not a disproportionate response.
So, whatever other people feel about increased regulation, I can't say that it was the wrong thing to do.
Regulation hold everything back. And who and how is going to regulate bitcoin? Exchanges can be, but bitcoin itself no.

Yeap, if you take inflation into account 250 million turn into around 450 million assuming an average yearly inflation rate of 3%. Inflation is a pretty inaccurate thing. It makes sense, when it comes to food, shelter, etc., but it doesn't make much sense, when it comes to technical stuff. Look at the cost of a computer 20 years ago and now. The service sector is also just way bigger than 20 years ago. That means, that when you start a business, it might be sufficient, when you can code to have product, you can rent the whole infrastructure pretty cheap. But that also means that there is much more competition. Lower costs=more people try to get into this market. So, I don't think, you can't really compare internet in 1980 with Bitcoin today. There are just so much things, to take into account.
Ofcourse inflation matter in technical stuff too.. 250 million in 1995 is worth way way more than 250 million today..

Thanks for the responses so far. I see that there is no simple way. I'll try the exchange "trick" with a small amount first.
