so lately I have been using myfitnesspal , which is a great app to track your meals , exercises and other fitness stuffs
there is a free version and premium version , so I was wondering if there is a similar app that accept bitcoin as a payment method for premium
also if you know a service that can do the exchange , like they buy you premium accounts and you pay them in bitcoins
Unique proposition. Personally i don't know any that accept bitocin as a direct way to pay right now. There was an app that i recall called Fitcoin that pays you to work out, essentially. However that was news back in 2014-2015 and not sure if they still let you do this. Plus, the functionality is going to be quite basic anyways. I would suggest just converting your BTC either p2p or an exchange to your local currency, and buying a subscription there until some courageous entrepreneur comes out with a bitcoin accepting site. |

So, recent news that China is either going to ban bitcoin exchanges, or they already have ... If that's the case, will that include miners? Or will mining become pointless if they can't exchange BTC to pay their expenses? I keep hearing that China has cheap energy, so I was wondering all along if China would discover these energy hogs and either tax them, or shut them down.
What sort of effect would this have on Bitcoin mining if China gets shutdown? Catasptrohic? Or the difficulty goes down and we get on fine without them?
Firstly, China has not officially announced that they will shut down any exchanges. No exchanges have been shut down, none of the owners of these exchanges have been contacetd by officials to let them know about what will be happening in the coming days/weeks that would indicate any sort of change in operation from right now. Even if they do ban all exchanges, it is simply impossible for them to ban all mining. Bitcoin and bitcoin mining is decentralized, and there are always ways around restrictions. |

Thanks for your concerning. They have just solved my problem yesterday (09/10/2017). It's sucks because my problem started on 27th of July (~1.5 months). Anyway, they did return me my money but I think I never use Coinbase again. I agree with you that Coinbase is one of the worst platforms ever!
Good to hear that your problem was finally resolved. I'm not sure whether you are aware of this or not but the Coinbase CEO actually said that the aim in Q3(aka the quarter that we're currently in, and is about to end) is to focus on fundamentals like customer support, and he said that he will be aiming to reduce customer support wait time to 6 hours. What a joke if you look at how long you waited, 1.5 months is unacceptable. I fully agree with xypos. Get out of coinbase, and find another wallet/exchange to use. Coinbase is a bomb waiting to explode. |

All my Eth and tokens balance was disappeared. but now all back to normal, I'm able to see all my Eth and tokens balance and send fund to the online-shop. seems to me its a temporary problem with MyEtherwallet.
Should be some sort of syncing issue with myetherwallet. Happens all the time if you connect to a remote node. I find that usually there are more issues with reflecting token and ETH balances if you connect to the Etherscan node. If you connect to myetherwallet.com's node then the token balances should update fairly quickly. Anyways, good to know that you haven't lost anything. I've stored thousands of dollars worth of tokens on myetherwallet, never had any issues. |

Honestly i would love to use this service. However i am not EU based so it's really a hassle.
To my understanding you guys don't require any identification for the cards right? What are the limits on the virtual and physical debit cards? If i'm not EU based would it be possible for me to use your wallet service along with a virtual card without getting a physical card or would that be impossible too?
Also, you guys should consider to switch to another card provider if the answer is no to my above question. You are simply losing out on so much of the market, and most of your competitors are planning on switching to another provider that accepts outside of EU customers.

I disagree with your view of $4950 likely be the end of a bubble. In My view bitcoin is not yet even in the bubble as we are still at the infancy stage of bitcoin and blockchain technology development. I do expect bitcoin to remain above $4000 for the remaining part of this year and I don't think we have any significant reason why bitcoin should go bearish except the games of media we are seeing playing from China to outrightly control bitcoin prices.
I agree with that. We've seen a great run this year but when I look at the weekly chart, zoom out in log scale, we're still far away from being in a bubble. Furthermore I don't understand why people still look at linear chart for a long term view. This is dumb!! We may take break and consolidate here for a while, maybe dip down to 3500 or so for a short while, but I'm sure the bull run isn't over yet. Right now there seems to be strong support around 4000. If it holds or we really get the chance to buy more coins below 3800-3900 needs to be seen. I think that OP is saying that short term we are in a bubble, and i agree with him on that. Long term, i'm extremely bullish on bitcoin to grow exponentially. There is not even 1% of the world using bitcoin right now and we are alreday at such a high market cap, just think of the potential that bitcoin has when it gains the amount of followers that it needs and becomes accepted by merchants. However, short term price has risen too much and does not fit the long term growth curve imo. When it grows too much it'll always be followed by a dip, at which point it will overcorrect and presents a good buying opportunity. |

Accuracy of price is really a very subjective thing.
If you live in the US then you probably don't care about how the Chinese markets are going especially if you are just trying to get some bitcoin off the US based exchanges, since China has strict controls over forex their prices rarely match up with international exchanges whose currency is fully liquid.
Coinmarketcap takes all listed exchanges, and converts their price from whatever local currency back into USD at face value to make up the price index. Worldcoinindex seems to only take USD based exchanges. It's your choice and is purely preferential, but i prefer coinmarketcap. It's just been around longer and it's a habit.

I'm still a bit confused regarding how Eden is related to Exodus. Will Exodus be rebranded to Eden in the future, and be based on the current Eden interface and functionality or will Exodus be still called Exodus but just have all the good stuff implemented from the pilot run of Eden? If I understood correctly, they are 2 separate projects, so we'll have Exodus for the new users and Eden for the advanced users, but anyway they should add all the Eden tokens in Exodus as well. So pretty much noob version and pro version, that's all. It's a little bit different then that. Eden is meant to be for those who wants to test the final release before It's out. It's like Bitcoin Core for example, you see RC (Release candidate) before the final version and It's not that stable, that's the same thing just to different softwares. Exodus is the stable version while Eden is for testing, and anything that you see on it, will eventually get added in Exodus as I already explained. So Eden is just a name set for this "beta" project? As soon as there is enough testing and the pilot run turns out to be fairly successful and bug free, there will be no such thing as Eden and every single functionality(that works, ofc) from Eden will be migrated to Exodus? Am i getting it right or still haven't got quite everything clearly? Thanks Omega  |

Unfortunately there is nothing anyone can do about how the price is completely different on Chinese exchanges compared to US or UK based exchanges. The rumours directly affect the customer's balances on the exchanges which means that a lot of people are panic selling. I think this should stop soon, and the price back to normal as either Chinese government does ban exchanges or they don't. Right now it's speculation. It is impossible to take advantage through arbitrage as there is a limit on how much foreign currencies one can exchange a year in china. |

Has anyone actually tried out the Eden release?
I would definitely want to have my ICO tokens on Exodus as well because then i would be able to track it fairly easily along with my other investments. Otherwise, it's a hassle to monitor them on different wallets and try to keep track of them all.
Semes like that it is software provided 'as-is', no support.
If others have no major issues using Eden then i might as well try it out, because i trust Exodus even if they don't provide support.
My personal suggestion would be to use it only If you are planning to report bugs etc. because it's definitely far from being a stable release and as I said on earlier posts, anything you see there will eventually come to the exodus wallet. If you are looking to store ERC20 token that are currently not supported by them, just go for Myetherwallet for the meantime. Thanks for the response. I'm still a bit confused regarding how Eden is related to Exodus. Will Exodus be rebranded to Eden in the future, and be based on the current Eden interface and functionality or will Exodus be still called Exodus but just have all the good stuff implemented from the pilot run of Eden? I guess i'm going to stick to Myetherwallet for now for storing tokens. I'm sort of tempted to use it since i don't think too much can go wrong when you have your recovery phrase and be able to export your private keys but i'll go for the safer option for now. |

I was going to take some BTC out of my Coinbase account and put it into my Blockchain wallet, but then I noticed that the network is at 0.0000BTC. It's always been non-zero before.
I'm afraid to send this and have the priority on the transaction be so low that it never gets solved.
Anyone know what's up?
Do you have the transaction ID of the transaction in question? Post it here so i can have a look for you. If it is true that they did not pay any fees at all, then this is unacceptable conduct from Coinbase. They are charging you a specific amount in transaction fees and you would expect that everything you pay goes towards the actual miner's fees in your transaction. I have never had this problem before with coinbase though. |

I've received the refund money and I've been slowly transferred the money to somewhere else one by one. It seems like they're not fraud. It's just their processes are too slow So i thought this might be a fraud. If they really want their business to keep going good they need to improve this . Anyway I'm wrong to say it was a fraud . They've already refunded for me
Thank you
Good to hear that this is resolved. Cryptonator might not be a scam, but i would like to point out that using XMR on cryptonator completely defeats the purpose of using Monero at all. Monero is supposed to be private and untraceable, but you're letting cryptonator know what you're doing this way. Plus, your private keys are stored by them. That means that you have no say when they get hacked or when they decide to go scam. I would definitely recommend downloading the Monero GUI instead. |

How can support be automated?
I think that your business model is essentially providing users with a environment on which they are able to conduct trades, with you acting as an escrow, correct? If that is the case, how can a bot resolve issues between two parties and decide the outcome?
Maybe i'm missing something here.
But other than that, i think the idea fo a telegram bot is interesting. It provides much more privacy and convenience, and less sfees.

Interesting. Even though this seems like to me to be some sort of elaborate hoax, there seems to be a pretty healthy chance that it is legit.
I mean i personally know nothing about Chinese press, but if they predicted China banning ICOs just 2 days before, then they have some credibility here. However, the extent of shutting down all bitcoin and altcoin exchanges seems to be much wider, and much more difficult to maintain.
Will they also be banning p2p exchanges like LBC, or only centralized exchanges? If the former then i think we could expect price to adjust to even worse levels. But we'll see whether this news is legit first or not.

Hi all ,
Guys I know you have your serious debates in here but I have to post this feedback here.
Just deposited some BTC today and mixed the chips then I decide to
leave them for a while so went for the voucher option (as always).
After few hours (through Tor) I've decided to enter the voucher code to
check them , however it kept saying ''This voucher is invalid or already
redeemed.'' in the end I managed to get access through mozila after many attempts.
I just fought might be an error and decided to leave for a bit longer so generated another voucher code.
And again I've tried to check the voucher code and nothing worked , link through Tor was so useless.
After many many attempts and few good hours I managed to get in with the same code and withdraw my chips .
I always had really good expierence with ChipMixer and everything went smooth however this time something wrong is going on so you guys have to fix it.
Kind regards,
No idea why this is the case. So your problem was that the voucher code did not work in Tor but worked on firefox? If that's true then i would suggest talking to the support team. This is probably a serious issue as Tor will provide much better privacy for regular users/whales compared to on the clear net. They'll fix it for you, if it isn't just a problem on your end. But anyways, at least you got your money back eventually. |

For me the safest is just exchange it from a trusted big exchange site for ex Poloniex, Bittrex
Both poloniex and bittrex are altcoin only exchanges, which means that if you want to cash out then you can't really do so on polo or bittrex. Unless you want USDT, and have a verified Tether account that you can easily cash out to your bank account with then you shouldn't be using them for btc -> fiat transactions. I would personally suggest using localbitcoins. You are covered by escrow, first of all. You are also able to select from a range of payment methods, from different countries as well because of the p2p business model. |

It's not philosophical at all, it is a practical subject. Whales have to deal with this problem every single day. If they sell then it would likely mean that they have to take a much lesser rate on average for all their coins.
On Bitstamp, there is around 200 BTC worth of bids for bitcoin above the $4500 level. Cashing out 200 BTC shouldn't be a problem at all, if you spread your funds out on several exchanges instead of dumping on just one. Even localbitcoins traders can facilitate 200+ BTC trades sometimes.
There is no maximum. As long as there are buyers, bitcoin can be converted into fiat. What matters is the price you're getting them for. A 1k BTC dump could potentially mean you are getting on average 5% less for your coins than the spot price when you started selling. I'd say that anything above 5k dump would mean major market disruption.

Hi guys I want to know if there is a web wallet like xapo that has multisig feature that do charge smaller fees. It's obvious that I don't want to use xapo because of high fee.
Go to greenaddress.it. Pretty sure that there are no additional charges with that service, you hold one of your keys and greenaddress holds the other so if there was a hacker, he cannot access the funds without hacking both the your private key and greenaddress's private key which is extremely unlikely. There are others available, such as btc.com. But i would recommend starting out with greenaddress. Been there the longest and has been reliable. Plus you are able to do nlocktime transactions as well. |

so are we?? I feel uneasy making any trades atm... what you guys think?
We are experiencing some resistance at the $4500, and the price is just floating around there. But otherwise i think that we have recovered to at least 90% the bull market that was there before, if not fully. Once we break this $4500 barrier i can definitely see bitcoin going up to at least $5000 (potentially more if under the right conditions). However i do think that after all the hype dies out we may see another bear market that is going to be quite prolonged. If you feel uneasy buying or selling, then just take a break. Trading right now is difficult as things are extremely unpredictable. |
