I have enough with mining altcoin. I currently have 2 rig, here are the specs: Rig 1:Intel Celeron, running 2 x 7950. MSI Z77A-GD65 Motherboard. AX860i PSU Rig 2:Intel 3rd Generation Core i7-3770K CPU (4 x 3.50GHz, Ivy Bridge, Socket 1155, 8Mb L3 Cache, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0), running 1 x 7970 and 1 x 7950. AsRock Z77 OC Formula Motherboard. AX860i PSU I am thinking of stripping the Rig 1 GPUs and move them to Rig 2. And then get a smaller case for Rig 1 to just use this as a desktop computer. For the Rig 2, with the combine GPUs I will end up having 4 GPUs on one gaming rig. I am going to get a full gaming tower case (Coolermaster HAF Stacker 935 Large Tower), looking for a motherboard which support 4 GPUs, the mobo I got at the moment only support 3 GPUs. Here are some questions about the transformation of Rig 2, as I am not really that good with PC hardwares. So please give me some suggestion. 1) Should I get the Corsair AX1500i PSU, so I can have more than enough power to potential upgrade to 2 x Asus Radeon R9 295X2 or in the future? 2) If I change the mobo to Asus Maximus V Extreme will I be able to use 4 GPUs? If not can anyone recommend a good gaming mobo which support 4 GPUs with Socket 1155 CPU. 3) I am going to get Corsair H110 Hydro CPU Cooler for the CPU. And with this case I read that I can put lots of fans in this case. If I am only going to play games on this rig, will the cooling be enough? If I can help it, I don't want to touch watercooling of the GPUs, I am not that good with hardware, I might end up flooding the whole rig. 4) With 1 x 7950 and 3 x 7950 I read that I can Quadfire them together. Will the graphic be 4K? 5) Also I like the new Nvidia Shield Tablet, do I need to have a Nvidia GPU to connect to this tablet? If so I might end up getting 2 x Titan Z when they drop the price. Please help, thanks

What are we missing?
Your contribution to the effort. I wish I am a programmer, then I can help. But I am afraid I don't have the skill set to help.

I think forex trading is easier than bitcoin trading. Forex trading, you can see news what is happening in that country, major events and press release. All these can move the price of forex. It is more predictable. Where as bitcoin trading, the price just goes up and down for no reasons most of the time.  I used my skill and experience in forex trading, and apply that to bitcoin trading. I lost over £200 in one day. That is why I don't trade in bitcoin, I just hold.

I'm upgrading from Bitcoin-qt 8.6, which runs fine as an executable on my Debian box.
I've extracted 0.9.2.1 to a different folder, which contains no executable.
Can someone please tell me the next step?
Thanks.
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install bitcoin

there is a team of bitcoin-core people.
I should have made my post more accurate. What I meant is Bitcoin-core development should be more like Linux kernel development.

I owned 500 BTC and 11 of the most valuable collectable items that will ever exist, and I was left with just the one 25 coin. It is safe to say I will never own 500 BTC ever again in my life for as long as live.
Look on the bright side. You probably would have sold all your 500 BTC and 11 coins today. The lesson need to be learn is to, only cash out a small bit of your bitcoin, if you absolutely need the money, and keep the rest in your wallet. The price will keep on going up in the the future. So use bitcoin as your pension, or long term investment. That is what I am doing right now.

Hey, don't worry about it. Bitcoin will crash back down to $1 eventually and you can buy back those 500 coins and get ready for the next jump to $1000.
In your dream, that will never happen. There are far too many people in bitcoin now.

I do agree that there is a bit of a hurdle when entering bitcoin from cash. Unfortunately coinbase and bitpay don't offer the functionality you pose in your post. For someone to enter BTC they would need to go through the coinbase verification processes.
That is why localbitcoins is better and quicker.

Well there is nothing saying you have to use port 8333. You can easily swap to another port.
yeah, like say, port 80.  That will be funny, if ISP block port 21, 25, 80 and 443.  No one can upload anything, use their email, surf the web or login to any site.

Why can't the Bitcoin development be more like Linux?
Linux has a huge development team. So many people take part in updating it. If you run Linux on your computer, you will know there are always updates. All these updates are created by the open source community. So why can't Bitcoin development be more like Linux?
What are we missing? Or maybe the development team will grow as big as the team of Linux?
What do you think?

There was a time when I thought bitcoin would fail. Then a friend pointed out to me how many people have invested so much money in the ecosystem. They won't let it fail. There's a whole industry out there. There a miners, there are mining device manufacturers, chip and board creators, there are exchanges, wallet creators, physical coin makers, loan services, advisors, software developers, pools, and this is only touching the tip of the iceberg.
Put it this way - gold will fail before bitcoin. Fiat will long fail before bitcoin.
I totally agree with you. That is exactly how I think too. I think bitcoin will be BIG. Everyone will use it.

If I have my comp on 24/7 with a QT wallet am I not a node?
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/FAQ#NetworkingBitcoin will connect to other nodes, usually on TCP port 8333. You will need to allow outgoing TCP connections to port 8333 if you want to allow your Bitcoin client to connect to many nodes. If you want to restrict your firewall rules to a few IPs, you can find stable nodes in the fallback nodes list. inbound TCP port 8333 must be open to operate a full node. Cool, I have now setup, 6 of my servers as full nodes.

Just realized I am talking rubbish. I can run Bitcoin-QT (empty wallet) on a server, which is always on. Then this will become a node.

I've set up this service, it's completely non-profit: http://fullnode.coIt's still under 'beta' or even 'alpha' but it's working. Reddit thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/262vvi/contribute_back_to_the_bitcoin_network_by/FAQ: Q: Why are you working with only one hosting provider, centralization is always bad A: I know, I'm working on adding other providers such as DigitalOcean Q: $20? That's too much, you can find cheaper VPS providers! A: I know, but servers with less than 2GB of RAM tend to crash the bitcoind daemon Q: How can I know you're deploying a server for each $20? A: A full list of the deployed servers is available on the website and you can calculate the donated amount divided by $20 per server Q: How can I know you're not using the servers for other stuff? A: I'm not sure how to prove this part, if anyone has any suggestions I would be more than happy to implement them. Q: How can I check if the deployed servers are actually running the bitcoin daemon and are currently connected to the bitcoin network? A: Take any server IP and paste it in the box that can be found in the middle of this page Q: Are you going to opensource this project? A: Yes, in the next few days you will be able to deploy an entire clone of fullnode.co and also everyone would benefit from contributions to the project's code I read about your project from Coindesk. I am wondering, why there isn't an option for people who got spare server to become one of the Fullnode? I got many servers, and I can use it to dedicate to the fullnode.

I have tried a lot of different enegry drinks, and I also think Monster Green is the best tasting energy drink.
