If your potential buyer is based in the USA you could refer him/her to Coinbase and if he/she is from the European Union you could link them to Bitstamp. They should know how to use the exchanges in the first place if you want to get a payment in bitcoin.

There are bitcoin wallets that send coins via SMS, emails and web links but still the Venmo app looks more hassle-free and is already integrated with Facebook which is a big plus.

Anyone with expertise in tracking transactions on the Blockchain working on gathering evidence for this bounty? I guess there are people skilled enough on the forum to take a stab at this.

The blockchain technology will be great for the health system like NHS where the data will be permanently shared and visible across the whole network ad can't be tampered with. You can literally carry around your medical records on your phone.
967  Economy / Speculation / Re: PANIC BUYING !!!!!!! on: January 19, 2016, 11:19:59 AM
Doesn't panic buying increase the price of bitcoins because there is a greater demand for them? And on the other hand panic selling lowers the price because the volume is greater than the demand? I think OP needs panic selling instead.

Would you be kind enough to tell us why? It is too expensive for normal citizens to live in there?

They have mostly just developed too many apartment complexes (sometimes in places where no-one lives).

Part of the problem might be price but another big part of the problem is most likely corruption (so they don't want to sell without getting a big profit).

So you end up with places that have big apartment buildings that are empty as the developers want the profits but the complex has been built in a place where no-one wants to live (known as "ghost towns").


How much money do you need a month to go sightseeing around China? And can you get around by speaking English or you are forced to learn basic Chinese?
969  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will you be happy if Bitcoin remained as it is now? on: January 18, 2016, 07:44:20 PM
I like it like it is right now. If it is accepted as a currency then maybe taxes will be imposed on it and you need to declare all profits to the revenue agencies. Now it's a little bit like the Wild West but it's has its advantages.

If you want to earn this much coin in a relatively small amount of time I would suggest trying out altcoin trading. Just scouting for newly released altcoins and watching the trends for increasing their prices will make you some nice profits if you move in very fast before the bubbles break. This requires some skills watching the markets though I think.
971  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Mike Hearn, a British computer programmer...." on: January 18, 2016, 06:56:13 AM
Wait did OP just say that Bitcoin is an American Technology? Satoshi Nakamoto is probably an Asian-American math teacher from Austin, Texas.
972  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mike Hearn is wrong. Bitcoin isn't dead on: January 18, 2016, 06:38:57 AM
What really gets me going is the fact that he devoids bitcoin, yet is going to develop a blockchain with 43 banks, what a traitor you are than, even worse than the devs holding back the blocksize due to investments, Mike is now doing the same....

The man is just looking out for himself I mean he needs to feed a family. Bitcoin Core was his job he was dissatisfied with his coworkers and his project so he left for another venture. It's human nature wouldn't you do the same if you had the chance?
973  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: R3CEV Bitcon Behemouth becomes world's biggest finacial entity on: January 18, 2016, 06:32:42 AM
Is this the place where Mike Hearn is working at now?

apparently so, whichs means they wanted to hire who they thought

would be one of the biggest names in Bitcoin,

Why are the biggest banks interested in the Blockchain technology? Do they want to use it in their networks or what? Looks like Mike Hearn is working again with bitcoin technology but with another employers.

@pompatore thanks for posting this.

Interesting reading and I'm not so sure if it's wise to ignore all of this. If he's right BTC might go down rather sooner than later.

Of course, he is right. he was inside Bitcoin for years He knows many people(investors, exchangers, miners).




Rightly so, I think the insiders know much much more about it rather than us.
We can just guess things and say no bitcoin still has huge potential, but the insiders always know the actual condition and technical views.

I think he mentioned that in the long-term the value of bitcoins will decrease not increase which I found disturbing. What if after the halving the value doesn't increase and costs of mining become unsustainable?
975  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I don't understand what Mike Hearns is droning on about? on: January 16, 2016, 08:59:31 PM
I gathered from his blog which a read a couple of times that the imposed cap slows down the network and this will hinder the use of bitcoin as a payment method in ,say, shops also I didn't know that 2 of the Chinese mines own 50% of the global hash power which is ridiculous. I think he is right in saying that bitcoin is a failed experiment because it's not decentralized - a couple of people hold everything in a centralized manner.
976  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is DEAD... on: January 16, 2016, 12:36:51 PM
Okay so the main problem is that the size of the TX files is getting too big for the network to handle and the cap must be raised? Why is this not being fixed like right now?
977  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Bitcoin is Dead" - Mike Hearn on: January 16, 2016, 08:05:40 AM
The price has dropped already by $100 overnight. Whatever is going on I think it's a mission accomplished for the perpetrators. Now it's best to sit back and enjoy the show as people already mentioned here.
978  Economy / Economics / Re: Trade house for 1 bitcoin on: January 14, 2016, 01:52:45 PM
I don't think 1 house will be worth 1 bitcoin in our lifetime, perhaps our children or grandchildren will have this opportunity if bitcoin still exists.
979  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Warren Buffet buying bitcoin? on: January 14, 2016, 08:44:57 AM
Nah, he's already mentioned he refuses to invest in anything he can't understand. So no, not likely, but possible nonetheless.

it's not like he can not study it, i think he is scared by the fact that even with his huge skill in trading, he will lose if invest in bitcoin

the market is unpredictable for anyone, even for him, this is the true reason for me

Yes that is true however he may be a believer in the long-term value of bitcoins and still buys them with the intention to hold for the future.
980  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who here has made a lot of money from bitcoin? on: January 14, 2016, 08:42:27 AM
I think the people who have made the craziest amounts of profits don't tend to spend a lot of time on this forum because they are pretty much busy with their trading operations Wink
