It was earlier Venezuelans benefited from bitcoin and now its Palestinians turn.With no official bank and official currency,they had been suffering these uch days to transact money abroad and vice versa. But now, bitcoin has come as a blessing to them. Now they could have money transactions easily and fastly with other parts of the world. Its said that

“Bitcoin, in their opinion, is cheaper, safer, and quicker,”. Nothing works with Palestinian banks. Bitcoin wallets are alternative banks.”

Bitcoin was once dominant in the crypto market being pioneer of crypto currencies.Then it started to lose its dominance gradually due to the entrance of hundreds of new coins.

Bitcoin's dominance was at its lowest at 36.1 percent.

But now, once again bitcoin's market share has reached high  to 57.09 percent which shows that people have lost faith in most of the shit coins and find only bitcoin to be the safe haven.

We could see the fights between BTC and BCH community members accusing each other's coin and spreading negative thoughts about the crypto market itself as a whole.Each coin dev as well as its supporters wants to show the other coin down.It makes people who wish to enter crypto loose their faith in cryptos and stay back.

Come on guys,even if we wish or not we all are sailing in the same crypto environment boat.Don't accuse each other or else we all have to sink one day or another.

Bitcoin's price has once again fallen down today to $6,315.

One of the great benefit of this bearish trend is that more speculators and new investors who just want to get rich overnight have mostly moved out or still moving out of bitcoin in search of another magical high ROI giving asset.

Thank God its once again not bullish.

Atleast bitcoin would be left with its loyal holders who wish to enjoy and support this technology by using btc for payments,etc.

I had been very much disturbed by reading articles that criticize bitcoin for using excessive enerfor mining.Nowadays such articles could be seen in large numbers.But the reality is different.Its just a false allegation against bitcoin by the biased media which is mostly funded by corporates.For them,those media deliberately spread FUD against bitcoin mining.

But bitcoin mining is using much less energy when compared to energy used for gold mining or bank transactions.

Such articles directly equate the number of transactions directly with the mining cost.But there is no such thing.The cost of mining stays the same both when a bitcoin block is full or empty.

Price manipulation is done by using many ways.Publishing speculative news in favour of boosting bullish trend is a way.Here on the below link,we could see that news sites continuously release news that bitcoin price is to boom.If we see such moves,we should be cautious about investing otherwise we may get fooled and we might have to regret for our wrong investment.Don't let news media to decide your fortune.

We all have advised these much days others not to store bitcoins in exchanges as they might get hacked.

But is this the only issue we are facing or do we all contribute to price manipulation by storing our bitcoins in exchanges.

So in order to avoid exchanges from using our bitcoins and manipulating price,we should immediately transfer our bitcoins to our wallets.

Unless we are going to trade immediately our bitcoins,we should not store our bitcoins there.

In 2009,50 new bitcoins were created every ten minutes.
In 2012 first halving,25 new btcs were created,in 2016 second halving 12.5 btcs were created every ten minutes and in 2020,third halving only 6.25 btcs would be created for every ten minutes.

So whatever the price of bitcoin be now,just stay tuned and bitcoin price would face a big rise on 2020.Just 637 days more approximately.

Just read an article in reddit.com.It says that the SEC has not approved ETF as it thinks that unidentifiable people could influence the market.If such manipulation occurs,SEC wishes them to be identified.

So will there never be an SEC approved bitcoin ETF?

Hi this is my doubt about costs related to bitcoin mining.As we all know that the difficulty as well as the cost for bitcoin mining is increasing continuously,suppose now the price is around 6,400 dollars and if this goes down a little to 5,000 dollars and if it continues for a period of six months,then would it be profitable for people or companies who mine bitcoins and if they were in a loss,would they be able to continue mining with a hope that bitcoin price would increase and they could recover their losses.And would it affect bitcoin mining in future?

Your views are most welcome.

Hi recently i faced a very big change when using my laptop as it became very slow.I was not aware of the reasons.I had already read about cryptojacking in which our computers are used for cryptomining even without our consent.So i just added nocoin extention to my chrome we browser.Surprisingly,now my laptop processing speed has increased much better.So you guys too could use this nocoin extention if encountering the same problem.

Lets fight against cryptojacking.

Nowadays crypto jacking,i.e.,illicit crypto mining by using a person's Computer without his concent has become more popular among cybercriminals than ransomeware.

Crypto miners nowadays account for 32percent of cyber attacks in comparison to ransomeware attack which is now just 8 percent.

Cybercriminals have found crypto jacking to be a safe haven as they could not be traced easily here.

I would say that paper currency is the greatest scam ever to enslave mankind.

Bankers charge interest for a thing which has been created out of thin air.

The paper currency gradually decreases in its value due to inflation over time.

So naturally people tend to move towards cryptos which are free from inflation and the bankers and big economists once again want to pull back people to the traditional enslaving system.

Now the choice is yours.

Enslavery or Financial Freedom?

Think Wise and Twice.

I read an article in which the concerned person says that the ICICI bank in India just held his 1,00,000 dollars if I'm not wrong for almost 21 days without releasing the funds.They have just delayed by asking him to provide proof of his link with the sender and other blah blah blah formalities.The user blames that the bank deliberately did used his funds for other purposes and had delayed in releasing him.He has said that he would dedicate himself for promoting bitcoin.

He says that "I really wished I could throw a punch on the banker's face".I feel that almost all the bankers deserve this punch.

Already Mt.gox was responsible for the bitcoin crash due to the reason of getting hacked.And now,after Japan court directed the Mt.gox trustee to sell the remaining 8,000 bitcoins.Be ready for yet another price dip.

New investors,be ready to grab this opportunity.

Hey guys,

Any recommendations for quiet Scrypt miners? All of the 5+ MH/s miners seem noisy esp the Zeusminers. I'm keen to get mining but the Mrs would flip running a Zeusminer sounding like a vacuum cleaner 24/7 lol! I may be able to get away with one in the garage but even then it may still be a bit noisy.

Otherwise I was looking at the Gaw Fury miners which I'm told are pretty quiet. Would be nice to be able to get something with decent hash that was fairly quiet tho.

Cheers!

Finally dgc lists on Vircurex. Get on dgc shes goin up!

Next stop BTC-e then Gox hehe 

Great name too. This new alt really looks promising. Fast transactions, transparent, low orphan rates. Really hope this takes off. Bitcoin and Digital Coin are the only two I'm sticking to at the moment. Go Digital Coin!

We'll it looks like BTC-e stopped OKpay deposits a little while ago. It seems there isn't en easy way either to get USD from OKpay to BTC-e. Every place you try and convert OKpay USD to Perfect Money it says you can't exchange more than 0.01 from OkPay. Anyone else got a method to get USD from OKpay to BTC-e?

What the heck is goin on @ Gox atm? Its been around $112 for 12hrs +... zzzzzzzzz
