You've got an interesting service with these radio stations and you had some good interviews broadcast on them.

Started listening a while back, good work! Would be great if we had some content broadcast in the UK like your Crypto Show

Hello, Thanks for listening... We have recently been in contact with several shows produced on your side of the pond. Hope to have something lined up soon. Do you have a particular show in mind? Do you know of a show that might want to be aired? Let us know. Thanks

Really that's great, nothing in mind as such but just to have a similar to what you do in the US to more specific for the UK would be great, keep me updated - Thanks

I'm still working on it guys. Stay tuned. I'm taking more time this time because i want to inclued anything so i don't have to redo the code again. Current progress is about half the way done. I hope i can use the weekend to get some more progress.

Looking forward to it bud

Hey,

You've got some interesting ideas are any up and running in a primative form?

Bitcoinpeers.com sounds like a good domain for BTC lending, which I have some ideas on. Aswell there does need to be some more dedicated material on altcoins.

How are you fixed for webhosting, I could offer you some free hosting via CryptoCloudHosting.org if you need any for any of your projects.

Have you written any decentralized apps? Or do you just have ideas for them?

Very interesting product, price tag is a little steep. Security seem the point here but it depends if you trust Design SHIFT!

I never knew cointelegraph did a weekly altcoin analysis, its slightly narrow in its coverage but still interesting.

I would definitely, of course that is just my own opinion but any free FIAT I get I convert to BTC

Are you waiting for a huge price increase or do you believe it will stay always around 400 USD ?

I believe the price will rise not by a huge amount but the reason I invest in Bitcoin (Crypto currencies) isn't for the price

Your paperwallets are on a whole new level compared to anything else on the market!

I would definitely, of course that is just my own opinion but any free FIAT I get I convert to BTC

There are quite a few out there, most are still building their databases, some others include: http://www.bitpages.co/listing and https://bitcoinyellowpages.com

A bitcoin address is an invoice number. It's a way to keep track of a specific payment request. Therefore, it doesn't make any sense to re-use bitcoin addresses. I use a new address for every transaction, so by now I probably have several hundred bitcoin addresses.

That's a great way to explain it! I to have several hundred addresses from different transactions.

BTC is accepted in all countries not paypal but Paypal is accepted everywhere.

That's a good point and I like the link (https://blockchain.info/wallet/paypal-vs-bitcoin) I wasn't aware of this comparison its a good one.

Hey,

Yeah CoinFest UK will be a good get together (coinfestuk.org), to be hosted on the 8th and 9th April 2016

All of my bills really from weekly food shop, cat tax, insurance, rent, more tax bills and phone bills - It would be alot easier to pay in Bitcoin.

Does the app pull merchants from a third party list or do you have your own database?

You can add

header("refresh: 240;"); on the next line after the <?php

^ That's a 240 refresh second, just watch the amount of times your pulling from the API don't exceed the limit

Here's a simple one I created in PHPfiddle: http://phpfiddle.org/lite/code/9mbw-iu5v

http://btcthreads.com/how-to-get-the-current-bitcoin-price/

Code:

$url = "https://coinbase.com/api/v1/prices/spot_rate";
$json = json_decode(file_get_contents($url), true);
$price = $json["amount"];
$addP = $price * 1.05; //add 5% to the current exchange rate
echo $addP;

Nice little script, good work.

Hey,

So I guess it went well

- Was the event recorded?

We decided that the nature of that last Meetup (being in a pub with not such a good lighting) would have meant a not so good recording, however, we have plans for a more structured live stream from a studio in the new year. The production manager is looking at better lighting but we have to weigh up the production and the aim (people having fun in a pub drinking and chatting about bitcoin/crypto currency etc).

Awesome, maybe we would work with your production manager at our CoinFest UK event (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1163402) to help us film our event
