These 2 accounts, that were created minutes from each other and post same posts, seem to be instructing people to redeem their Bitcoin Cash.
I assume they instruct people to download a wallet that steals your private keys.

Nothing new here.
Seems like everything is going as it should

Soon enough Bitcoin will be the currency of the World.

Liking money too much often brings trouble.
I wouldn't recommend any honest person to focus on making a lot of money, but to focus on doing work that will benefit the World, if they can pay for their needs.

Maybe you downloaded the version for wrong architecture.

You could be running a 32-bit version of Windows, while downloading 64-bit version of your wallet.
32 bit version software should run on 64 bit OS however, so I would check the wallet version first.

Yes, that would be a lot safer.

You could even use Tails OS to have better privacy, plus it has an Electrum wallet already installed in it.

Well it took me a long time to rank up, since merit system was introduced week before I was supposed to turn to Senior Member, but I finally gathered those extra 150 merits.
I will apply for a Senior Member finally or Senior Member special pay if possible. I already changed the signature of course.
I also updated my address to segwit, so we can save on fees.

Governments all around the World do this all the time.
This is just how they operate, they like the money, they want to tax you, so they want to know all about your trades.

Bisq is pretty strong in the EU area though, as a strictly P2P exchange the level of privacy is very high, especially since it runs over Tor.

You will need to give more info, like txid so we can make sure that the transaction was confirmed.

If it was confirmed then the problem is in the site you are using, not with the bitcoins.

I can say that because they have no proof of work algorithm. Proof of stake coins have no use of a blockchain and are as much cryptocurrencies as fiat would be if banks published all the transactions for everyone to see every 10 minutes.

Well not really.

getrawtransaction command only gives you the raw transaction data of the transactions in the mempool or in your wallet (if they are transactions to or from one of your addresses), unless you have txindex switched on, which it isn't by default.

You can however get raw transaction data of the transaction in some block if you know the hash of that block.
So there is no real way to check if the transaction is confirmed reliably, but if you know that the transaction was successfully broadcasted to the network with a fee that was high enough, then if you don't get the right output from that command you can know that it has been added to some block. But you can't do this for transactions connected to one of your addresses, since you will always get a full output.

As for checking multiple transactions, no. You can't do that with this command.

These are just tricks by chief officers in the company to gain some points as innovative leaders or something.
It is just PR, they have no idea what they are doing or what they could gain from using decentralized technologies.
They usually just end up centralized their technology and retain some inefficient blockchain structure that makes no sense in a centralized system.

Mastercard can just use Bitcoin if they really want an efficient payment system with blockchain technology, but I think they just want to appear competitive while they are losing their business to the blockchain.

Piramidne seme po definiciji ne smeju da nude korist svog proizvoda.
Bitkoin je veoma koristan. Svetu su potrebne valute da bi mogli da trguju, umesto da se trampuju.

Nije ovo nikakva piramida, ovo je veoma realna i korisna tehnologija.

Sure, why don't we just send it to space. There, boom, problem solved.
We could also just nuke it and it will evaporate right?

I don't think you live in the real world mate.
Seems like a general problem of your ideas is that you don't understand the costs of doing things.
You give a simple solution that doesn't make sense to apply in real world.

Let me put it this way. It is a lot simpler for the whole World to just stop using fossil fuels than to fix all the negative effects of global warning.
It is easy to destroy things, very hard to fix them. Usually adults don't break stuff just so they can clean it up later.
The reason why people still use fossil fuels isn't because they doubt global warming or because they think these problems are unsolvable.
It is simply because they don't care enough about the consequences to stop right now.
That and the strong influence of oil industry on the governments that makes it hard to stop.

You should probably use decentralized exchanges like Bisq instead.

XRP is not a cryptocurrency.

It is the biggest one. That and the fact that SHA256 is very well tested and known to be secure.
Having ASICs mine is one thing, but having a hashing algorithm that is insecure is a complete chaos.

ASICs happen for every algorithm, but there are currencies like Monero that hard fork every time they have a doubt that ASICs are developed.


This is exactly why it never forked and it won't for a very long time. First you need for the almost entire community to agree that fork needs to happen.
Then you need a vast majority of the community to agree to which algorithm we should change.
And after all of that being discussed for years (probably decades based on how much time we needed to simply increase a block size) we would already have some company create an ASIC for the new algorithm.

It is not a simple problem and it doesn't seem to be absolutely necessary.
ASICs do hurt decentralization, but it is not widely established how much they really hurt it.
Anyone can buy ASICs and multiple companies can develop them.
And we still have big mining centers and pools in other cryptocurrencies that don't have ASICs for their algorithms.
And we still have practically only two companies developing hardware used to mine these altcoins.
Centralization in mining is not just an ASIC problem, it is a bit more complicated than that.

Korist valuta je da sluze kao medium razmene. Njihova vrednost je samo onoliko koliko joj ljudi dodele.
Glavno sto se promenilo u zadnjih godinu dana je adaptacija Bitkoina kao valutu, koja konstantno raste, pa samim tim i njegova vrednost.

Mada promenile su se i razne stvari na tehnickom nivou, vise nego verovatno bilo koje druge godine, ali mislim da ljudi ne gledaju to toliko.
Segwit je dodat u Bitkoin, prve implementacije LN su skoro izasle na mainnet, itd. Bitkoin nikad nije imao ovoliki potencijal sa ovim novim tehnologijama.

Ali ne pravi smisla gledati na Bitkoin kao proizvod, jer nije proizvod, nego valuta.
Vrednost Bitkoina dolazi odakle dolazi i vrednost dolara,evra i dinara. Drugi ljudi ce ti dati svoje proizvode za njega, pa vredi.
A glavni razlog rasta cene Bitkoina dok ostalih valuta opada, je zbog rasta u broju ljudi koji zele da koriste Bitkoin dok kolicina Bitkoina u cirkulaciji ostaje prakticno ista.Sve vise ljudi koristi Bitkoin, jer je objektivno najbolja valuta, zasnovana na najboljoj tehnologiji.

Medjutim i kada Bitkoin dostigne skoro maksimalnu stabilnu adaptaciju, idalje ce cena da mu raste, za razliku od ostalih valuta.
Ovo je jednostavno zato sto prakticno (i u buducnosti bukvalno) nema inflaciju za razliku od ovih ostalih.

Ako mene pitas, ove centralizovane valute ne bi trebalo da vrede nista.

Slazem se, samo ne znam o kom balonu pricas...
Bitcoin je valuta. Svaka valuta izgleda kao balon ako je gledas kao akcije u kompaniji.

And if we only knew what kind of information they take from your Android phones...
Few years ago Microsoft was very scary as Windows was most popular operating system, now most popular operating system is Android which is developed by Google and comes with Google apps with full system access and closed source.

I used to try convince people to switch to Linux so Microsoft doesn't have full access to their personal computers where they had a lot of personal information.
Now we have these computers always in an arm length and there is no good open source alternative. They are next to us while we are walking outside, while we are eating, sleeping, practically always...And it is all owned by the company that also owns majority of the Internet...

When it comes to privacy, we are in deep shit now, if we ever where.

I don't think you will ever find much support for just killing people B1tUnl0ck3r.
In modern civilization it is very unpopular to murder people.

I suggest you calm down a bit and think a bit more deeply about your ideas man.
Some people learn about dangers of their ideas by studying history a bit. Maybe doing that would make it clear for you why most developed countries don't execute people so easily anymore.
