Eur might replace dollar only if in long term UE economy really does well. It will take years for that to happen and I don't think they are in a good direction. Us economy is performing really well, just take a look at their stock market.

You were very patient making this guide.
I tried to use table in some of my posts, and I was able to use in a few of them.
But it takes too long to get it perfectly done, because any small problem will break the table completely.
Table creating should be much easier, i hope they make it better in the new forum software. I havent tried the beta so far

I am a US citizen with a US address (i rent out my apartment but keep a portion for myself and pay electric bills but not water bills) My bank is US but my phone is an Indian phone. I am concerned about having difficulty with any exchange for withdrawing fiat for BTC I purchase. Can anyone advise any exchange that might be reliable for withdrawing fiat?
You may use Bitstamp. I made already some USD swifts from US to bitstamp and I am not a resident in the US, neither a citizen, just have a bank account there. |

I used services such as Shapeshift, Changelly, Instaswap etc for as long as I use crypto, but AFAIK they are not atomic swap software. THey are similar to exchanges.
[...]
I see many people calling those services Atomic Swaps, but I don´t think they are. Any thoughts on this?
no, they are not atomic swaps. If Shapeshift or Changelly wanted to rob you, they could. That's not possible with real atomic swaps Yes. I agree. I read about it and atomic swaps must be made through smartcontracts. Do you know where can I find real atomic swaps? |

If you decided to list best hardware wallets, I think you must mention Ledger Nano X. It's newest wallet of Ledger which allows to install up to 100 coin apps at the same it. While Nano S allows to install very limited number of apps. Even if you have a trezor or ledger you will probably want to download Electrum soon. The wallet software of those hardwallets are very poor and do not allow to control your funds as Electrum does. Can you be more specific what's wrong with their software? I use it with Ledger Live and I'm happy with it in general. But yeah, using Electrum with hardware wallet can be a good alternative. Electrum has far more features. Electrum allows you to control utxo , chosing the inputs that you will add to your transactions, reducing fees. If you don't know what is it , take a look at this guide by LoyceV https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2848987.0You can make small consolidations in your transactions, for example |

So my question is, based on user experience, where is the safest and stablest wallet I can use so that my BTC won't magically disappear like what have happened historically.
Thanks for reading my really newbie question and soon I'll write about how this specific player who got me into bitcoin helped my private game server grow (its an old game, but runescape is still older)
The best wallet is a hardware wallet auch as trezor and ledger. Neither binance or coinbase are wallets. How many times people ask this here every day? If you don't wanna invest in a hardware wallet just download Electrum from electrum.org. your BTC will be safer there than on coinbase |

I would definitely include electrum.org on that list.
Even if you have a trezor or ledger you will probably want to download Electrum soon. The wallet software of those hardwallets are very poor and do not allow to control your funds as Electrum does.
Electrum is very safe and works well with hardware wallet

Like many others said, deposit bonus are not giveaways or airdrops. They are just giving you some money to spend on their plataform, as an incentive. Not to automatically withdrawal the funds

How old is your wallet? If you're using the HD wallet, you can move to electrum, it has TOR support afaik. Import the old wallet and move all funds to a new one This is the best solution. If you have the seed (12-24words) you can easily import your funds to any other wallet. Electrum or even a new blockchain.info wallet. You can also put your words in iancoleman io/bip39 and get he privatekeys one by one(I have done once, and imported the funds to coinomi) |

yeah, thanks, ive already decided to buy hardware wallet, paying 80$ for saving 500$ is a good idea
Your peace of mind is worth. And your BTC will become more valuable in time (we all hope at least), and your 100usd will be very cheap.. you can sell some BTC in a few monthse to pay for it Also, never keep your money on exchange, even while waiting for your ledger to arrive. It's better to stay on Electrum than on any exchange. |
|
|

well, im not an enthusiast but i still dont want my money to be stolen, but paying 100$ for the wallet is more than 10% of my wallet. are there any cheaper solutions, atleast software
I think you should then use Electrum, mobile or desktop version. It is important that you have safe habits online (don't install junk shady software, don't click shady links, don't go to shady websites, etc). Especially is your device whixh you have Electrum installed. Dobwload only from Electrum.org |

Hello.
I was thinking, why do people pay to other people solve captchas? Why do people pay anything on those faucets at all?
I know it is almost nothing, but what is in for themm? Website clicks to get more visitors, revenue from ads?

blockchain info is just a wallet, so it cant be hacked the same as the stocks. and also blockchain com company is too big and is on the market for a really long time, so it wont rob anybody, if im mistaking correct my mistakes plz
thank you
First- blockchain.com is not a big company. It's big but not as big as you think. If someone "hack" an stock market exchange, there are many laws and insurances that will protect you. There aren't laws or insuarences if you lose your bitcoin. If you ever make a wallet, you will be only responsible for its security. If you chose blockchain.com as a wallet, you have to know the risks involved and that they have no responsibility over your funds. In my opinion, unless you are an expert, you should buy a hardware wallet such as trezor or ledger nano. |

. This is why I would like to.know if Jr. Members in rank still can earn huge reward in signature campaign?
You will not earn huge rewards as a member or jr member. When I joined the forum I already had some cryptocurrency knowledge and the merit system was already implemented. I joined a Yahoo signature campaign as a jr member and earned something like 0.0001 a week. It was not profitable, but it was an investment in my account. The rewards will get higher in time, and if you are not a spammer you will rank up and will get accepted in good payment campaigns, as I did Use your free time in the forum, read more than you write and you will be rewarded. |

You can use Electrum in your Android phone as well, which is more reliable than sentinel (in my opinion)
Nice guide.

I think that wallet is not newbie friendly, even Electrum is not that newbie friendly... I think mobile wallets such as samourai are more newbie Friendly. We still lack good open source wallets for newbies, specially for mobile |

Trader should be ranked above holder, If you actually know what you are doing you can rapidly increase your bitcoin stack. There was no point in holding down to the last drop we had at 3k. you could of easily tripled your stack by trading.
You could easily have reduced it to half and still screaming around" I am 100% up in fiat" too. |

I have been quite fortunate in life. I've always been super interested in new technology which led me getting involved in bitcoin in 2010. I obtained a substantial amount and made quite a bit from it. I'm currently worth $26 million, My finances are $2million in cash and bonds., $10million in stocks, and the remaining in bitcoin which is around $14million in current prices. I'm already an old person so the $2million in cash and bonds is more than enough to last me for the rest of my life. I've already given quite a bit of BTC away since that post. You had 20 billion,gave some BTC, and now you have 26millions? |

Esse é o meu ponto, uma transferência por meios antigos demoraria dias e custaria muito mais.
O BTC demora horas e nesse caso citado, 19 reais.
Qualquer moeda PoS decente diminui esse tempo para segundos e com taxa quase zero. Até mesmo o ETH que é antigo e PoW diminuiria em muito o tempo/taxa.
Nesse ponto discordo. Acho as taças do btc super baratas e rápidas, tem q saber usar. Um Swift no sistema bancário custa 45 usd + 2-3 dias úteis. Ontem fiz uma transação por 3 Sat/byte que me custou 9centavos de dólar e foi confirmada em menos de 12horas (isso enquanto BTC tava subindo 15% no dia) O BTC deve ser comparado com redes movimentadas, como a rede bancária. Até mesmo comparar com ethereum é covardia, pq ngm usa. Se vc olhar a quantidade de transações na rede ethereum é ridícula comparado ao BTC https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/transactions-btc-eth-bch.html#6m (botei bch só de onda, quase zero. Deve ser só transações dentro da própria carteira dos scammers kk) Comparar com essas moedas pos então, tipo peercoin, q tem 2 transações por bloco é comparar coisas completamente incompatíveis. Primeiro pq é outro grau de segurança na rede (pos não foi testado como o pow, q já se mostrou seguro e o pos ainda nao , tanto q nem ethereum quis adotar ainda ) e segundo pq é outor volume de transações . Se BTC tivessem duas transações por bloco seria tudo 1 Sat/byte e confirmado em 10min. |

I'm still not entirely sure how payments are registered and how you can prove a request was paid.
Payment hash proves that transaction has been paid. You can see it in Eclair Mobile in transaction details. I saw that too. But I couldn't find anywhere to paste it so I could verify (see fees, receipt or whatever). When the channel is closed I will know my final balance and how much that test cost in fees. I'm curious to see that too, and I really dislike that I can't set a custom fee. I tried to close the channel prematurely (now) and I was warned that I would pay higher fees. I believe that in the way lightning channels are designed channels should only be closed prematurely if there is a reason or a misunderstanding between the parts. I read something like this in mastering bitcoin but I am lazy now to check it |
