A Bitcoin wallet is a product program where Bitcoins are put away. To be actually exact, Bitcoins are not put away anyplace; there is a private key (mystery number) for each Bitcoin address that is spared in the Bitcoin wallet of the individual who claims the adjust. Bitcoin wallets encourage sending and getting Bitcoins and gives responsibility for Bitcoin adjust to the client. The Bitcoin wallet comes in many structures; desktop, versatile, web and equipment are the four fundamental sorts of wallets.
DEFINITION OF BITCOIN DOMPET. Wallet Bitcoin, is the place (purse) of Bitcoin storage. Somebody, will not be able to have Bitcoin without Bitcoin storage (Bitcoin Wallet / Wallet Bitcoin). Bitcoin wallet function is to store some cryptographic keypair, or more commonly known as "Bitcoin Address" (Bitcoin address).

 
The nature of the Bitcoin Wallet is different from the conventional wallets we used to know, whose function is to save some money. while, Bitcoin Wallet has a different function, because the Bitcoin wallet will organize a number of Bitcoin address (Bitcoin address) owned by the user.
while the amount of funds owned by the user can be accessed by requesting data amount of funds contained in Bitcoin addresses owned and add them.
Inside Bitcoin, a Bitcoin user, can have many bitcoin addresses. with address bitcoin (Bitcoin Address) is, Bitcoin users can transact each other, either send or receive Bitcoin from other users .
2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is Virtual Money? on: February 21, 2018, 11:21:25 AM
About virtual currency, there are 03 different understandings:

    Money is unmanageable, no physical shape and is used in electronic environments, it is called virtual money.
    The type is not real value, not guaranteed by cash, gold, and valuable assets.
    The money is usually used to pay for games in electronic games, each type of game has a different currency and they can not be used to exchange for each other or to bring out the electronic environment to buy. Other service products are.

The concept of virtual money is born, widely used and most often by the third interpretation itself. With this kind of money, the balance can be managed and easily changed by the issuer without affecting the financial or market economy.
Virtual is defined as having no basis of physical reality.virtual currency has been defined since 2012 by the European central Bank as a form of currency without rules or regulations created and supervised by the developer for use by its specialized members of the virtual community.
uS depatemen of treasurypada 2013 states more firmly that virtual money as '' a medium of exchange that operates like a currency in certain environments, but does not have any attribute as a real currency ''. the key is the virtual currency attribute has no definition as a legal tender status.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What makes Bitcoin different from alt coins? on: February 21, 2018, 06:46:32 AM
Can we expect altcoins to reach the success of Bitcoin? and how long would it take? what are success metrics?
Differences Bitcoin and Altcoin - Virtual currencies of various kinds for example are Litecoin, Dogecoin and there is also Altcoin. The currently popular is Bitcoin, though there's nothing wrong if you understand the difference between each of those virtual currencies. every virtual currency has its own advantages and disadvantages, for example Altcoin and Bitcoin. If traced further a lot of types of cryptocurrency that exist in the community but who is rising then Bitcoin. altcoin itself is a newcomer that has not been widely known by the public so that the description of Altcoin is still gray or unclear. In order for you to be more familiar with Altcoin, consider the difference Bitcoin and Altcoin following

panic happened every where the what is going on?
all the coins in the crypto world have decreased more than 20% especially bitcoin.
this is crazy
Here are some predictions about bitcoin by 2018 that are inferred from some observers.

One, taxation will be a big problem. Tax issues will be an important issue later, if bitcoin is already set up. how to, for example, report the benefits accurately to the regulator.

Two, the number of cryptococcal adopters will increase. yonatan Sela, SVP's business development from PROPS by YouNow, which uses blockchain to build a media ecosystem estimates that by the end of 2018, there will be more than 50 million people worldwide holding at least one cardiac crypto.

"My hope is bitcoin will continue to retain value as a form of digital gold, and the promise of digital money will be met by Dash," Woodin Node40 said.

Three, bitcoin develops into a payment network. Bbtcoin is currently used as a speculative asset and asset value. but the Bitcoin utility will increase dramatically along with the price.

Four, investors will diversify their crypto assets. Most investors will realize that in addition to Bitcoin, there are Ethereal, Litecoin, Dash and IOTA. there will be a move from investors to diversify their crypto assets and manage investments in the same way that investors see more traditional assets and investments.

Five, institutional investor interest will increase. mike Poutre, CEO of The Crypto Company believes that 2018 will be the year in which institutional investors enter the crypto-curent industry.

Six, hoping to see more rules. as Bitcoin booms, the rules will first enter ICO before switching to cryptocurrencies directly. Although still difficult to predict the impact. However, it is difficult to now predict if regulations will have a positive or negative impact on the industry

Bitcoin is changing the way we live.
Bitcoin is changing the way we do business.
Bitcoin is changing the way we travel and save our money/assets.
Bitcoin and blockchain technology has open new doors for people to do business with one another without the intervention of third parties.

What do you make of this, huh? Share with us what you think. thanks Smiley

This is how Bitcoin will change the world. Bitcoin does the same thing, changing our paradigm of money. Will Bitcoin survive? This is still a debate. but certainly with the existence of bitcoin we are forced to re-think about the concept of creation, storage, and transfer of value (money). Changing our psychology about money and shaking the financial world as a result .
7  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: what are the benefits of bitcoin? on: February 20, 2018, 01:27:19 PM
what are the benefits you get in bitcoin? And how those it affect your daily living?
Bitcoin benefits

By using Bitcoin then this is the easiest way to exchange money for minimal cost.
here are some of the benefits and benefits of Bitcoin

1. Security and Manage our Money

Bitcoin transactions are secured by military-level cryptography. no one can use our money or make payments on our behalf. As long as we take the necessary steps to protect our wallets, Bitcoin can give us complete control over our money and a strong level of protection against many types of fraud.

2.function Anywhere, Anytime and By Anyone

Just like email, we do not need to require our families to use the same software or service provider. Let them use what they like. it is not a problem; they are all compatible because they use the same open technology. The Bitcoin network never sleeps, even on holidays!

3. Easy and Fast International Payment System

bitcoin can be transferred eg from America to China in less than 10 minutes. No Bank is slowing down the process, expensive fees, or freezing of funds. We can pay our neighbors just as we pay a member of our family in another country.

4.almost Free to use

Bitcoin allows us to send and receive payments very cheaply. Except for special cases such as micro-payments, no fees are applied. but it is recommended to pay higher voluntary fees for faster confirmation of our transactions and to hire people who operate the Bitcoin network.

5. Protecting our identity

with Bitcoin, no credit card numbers can be collected by the bad guys to imitate us. In fact, it's even possible to post a payment without having to reveal our identity, just like real money. however we should note that it takes some effort to protect our privacy.

6. Payment Via Mobile is made easy

Bitcoin on Hp allows us to pay with two simple scan-and-pay steps. no need to swipe our cards, type PIN, or sign anything. All we need to do to accept Bitcoin payments is to display the QR code in our Bitcoin wallet app and let our friends scan our phones, or touch two phones together
it should be noted that all Bitcoin transactions are kept publicly and permanently on the Bitcoin network, which means that Bitcoin address and balance can be seen by anyone. experts recommend that Bitcoin owners need to create new addresses for each transaction as a way to ensure privacy and improve security.

after we created the Bitcoin address and have obtained the Bitcoins address, then you can use it for online transactions with companies that accept Bitcoins as a way of payment. The company will send a Bitcoin address to which we can send our Bitcoin payments. we redirect the payment to the address, while the transaction takes place in seconds, verification can take 10 minutes or more .
8  Economy / Speculation / Re: what you think about bitcoin in like 5 years? on: February 19, 2018, 06:20:01 PM
bitcoin is five years time in my opinion there will be a lot of hard forks from the original bitcoin blockchain and the value of bitcoin would increase by 300 percent today's price. if transaction's speed and price remains the same, bitcoin's not improving and maybe the price wont grow that much
Some 5 year old bitcoin thinking as follows:

1. Many companies will pay freelancers with the digital currency that will trigger tax reform.

2. The digital currency will change the monopoly of money made by the government similar to the Internet.

3.the government will build an agency to analyze cryptocurrency regulation.

4. Thousands of cryptocurrency companies will be born and floor on the stock .

Who are the richest people in Bitcoin?
Through some of the news that has been circulating and viral among the world Bitcoin community they have a source who knows that the richest creator of bitcoin is named "Satoshi Nakamoto" which if in thinking think is the name of a citizen of Japanese poetry. but in 2016 there is someone who is a fairly well-known figure in the Bitcoin community who is also an entrepreneur in Australia named Craig Wright claims that he is the Nakamoto in the talk .

The key is the virtual currency attribute has no definition as a legal tender status. virtual money has no valid intrinsic value to use as a price submission.
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you want to Buy with Bitcoin? on: February 18, 2018, 11:12:51 PM
Reading a lot of New Year Resolutions, and I can understand many of you here have some resolutions that involve crypto and bitcoin. Maybe you want to earn a bitcoin, multiply your  bitcoins or become a crypto millionaire.

So here is one similar question that does not necessarily has to be achieved in this year.

What are the things you want to buy with bitcoin?
Whether its a House, your favorite car, a yacht, a jet or a ticket to Mars. Whatever you dream, list the things you want to buy with your bitcoins (crypto).


What can we buy with bitcoin following some websites that use BitCoin for their transactions:
  • WordPress started receiving payments with BitCoin last year.
  • BitMit is similar to Ebay. [/ li]
    • Coindl is similar to iTunes: music sales sites, books, and gamessoftware. [/ li]
      • Ogrr allows us to trade in-game items like World of Warcraft. [/ li]
        • BannerAdExchange allows us to buy advertising space using Bitcoins. [/ li] [/ list]
          If we make individual transactions, we can also directly transact easily. Of course just like any other online sale transaction, make sure we buy from a trusted party .
12  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: February 18, 2018, 01:52:23 PM
    Bitcoin is something radically new. Nothing like Bitcoin has been possible until now. I would go so far as to consider it sui generis; "in its own class".  This makes it important to understand what Bitcoin actually is before we try to describe it to others.

    We're getting a good handle on the code, and of course on Bitcoin's function and utility, but what words should we use to describe Bitcoin itself? There has been some debate in other threads [mostly my doing] over how it is like/not like money, cash, dollars, etc. I'd like to start this thread by focusing on the term "money", and play Devil's avocate by asking for your best arguments that Bitcoin IS money.

    My legal dictionary states "In usual and ordinary acceptation it [money] means gold, silver, or paper money, used as circulating medium of exchange, and does not embrace notes, bonds, evidences of debt, or other personal or real estate." [cites omitted]

    Wikipedia says "Money is any object that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts in a given country or socio-economic context. The main functions of money are distinguished as: a medium of exchange; a unit of account; a store of value; and, occasionally, a standard of deferred payment." [cited omitted]

    Webster's Online Dictionary defines money as:
    • 1. The most common medium of exchange; functions as legal tender; "we tried to collect the money he owed us".
    • 2. Wealth reckoned in terms of money; "all his money is in real estate".
    • 3. The official currency issued by a government or national bank; "he changed his money into francs".
    • 4. A piece of metal, as gold, silver, copper, etc., coined, or stamped, and issued by the sovereign authority as a medium of exchange in financial transactions between citizens and with government; also, any number of such pieces; coin.
    • 5. Any written or stamped promise, certificate, or order, as a government note, a bank note, a certificate of deposit, etc., which is payable in standard coined money and is lawfully current in lieu of it; in a comprehensive sense, any currency usually and lawfully employed in buying and selling.
    • 6. In general, wealth; property; as, he has much money in land, or in stocks; to make, or lose, money.
    [links omitted]
    [/list]

    I maintain that per these definitions, Bitcoin cannot possibly be described as "money". And further, I think that those who do describe Bitcoin as "money" are doing this community a disservice.

    But that is just my point of view. Are there any that can convincingly argue otherwise, that Bitcoin IS money?





    Bitcoin is one of the largest virtual currency market capitalization. In addition to bitcoin, there is also ethereum, ripple, bitcoin cash, cardano, NEM, litecoin, and so on. Currently, bitcoin market capitalization reaches 246 billion US dollars. market capitalization of ethereum and ripple respectively 133 billion and 79 billion US dollars.
    Thus, until January 13, 2018, total market capitalization of virtual currency has reached 752.542 billion US dollars. The figures are based on data from CoinMarketCap .

    TRADINGEthereum and Bitcoin appear to be separating. ETH is in a 14-day uptrend while BTC is still in a 25-day downtrend.
    Bitcoin does have euphoria in recent weeks. On Wednesday (29/11), the value of the currency reached USD11.000 point. Stiglitz judged that although the growth of digital currencies so fast, Bitcoin will eventually be like a "bubble" and waiting for time to break.

    14  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The advantages of bitcoin on: February 17, 2018, 05:58:07 PM
    For me, Bitcoin has many advantages, one advantage is it gives to the individual money to sustain the basic needs, It also reduce the increasing number of unemployed in some countries, The people who work in bitcoin develops the ability to reason out, enhanced the English proficiency, that's the some advantage of bitcoin.
    There are some advantages of bitcoin is quite extraordinary in my opinion that makes a lot of people interested in the name of this bitcoin. Here are the advantages:

    1. Very High Price Rise

    2. Can be used as a global currency
    15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: who created bitcoin? on: February 17, 2018, 04:34:42 PM
    Bitcoin is the first implementation of a concept called "cryptocurrency", which was first described in 1998 by Wei Dai on the cypherpunks mailing list, suggesting the idea of a new form of money that uses cryptography to control its creation and transactions, rather than a central authority. The first Bitcoin specification and proof of concept was published in 2009 in a cryptography mailing list by Satoshi Nakamoto. Satoshi left the project in late 2010 without revealing much about himself. The community has since grown exponentially with many developers working on Bitcoin.
    By 2015, the home of someone suspected of being a bitcoin creator of Australian federal police. The house is occupied by an Australian businessman named Craig Steven Wright, whose name suddenly rose after Wired and Gizmodo reported. the two media mentioned Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto's real identity, the name of the bitcoin creator.

    Nakamoto's original identity was previously very mysterious since the first bitcoin was released in 2009.but along with the rising value of bitcoin currency, the curiosity of many parties about the original identity of the creator continues to increase .
    16  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are they afraid of bitcoin? on: February 17, 2018, 12:10:53 PM
    Every student of the political economy who understands the style of the work of the technique of Blockchain and Bitcoin BTC will be absolutely sure that the next alternative to the classical system is the digital currencies, which by their characteristics (speed - privacy - lack of costs - decentralization of the system ...) The foundations of political economy in all its schools, from Aristotle and Ibn Khaldun to Marx, Adam Smith and Keynes and finally with Friedman. These scholars, who laid the foundations of economic thought through money supply, can control the economy of countries and their economic policy.
    In my opinion, Noble In the economy of this great invention that will change humanity and will throw our lives upside down in so-called Internet value ..........

    They are afraid because Bitcoin claims that "This is the first decentralized peer-to-peer payment network supported by its users without central authority or intermediaries." The lack of central authority is the main reason why governments are afraid of cryptoes. To understand this fear, it is important to know a little about government and conventional currencies .
    17  Economy / Speculation / Re: The real problem of bitcoin price decline on: February 17, 2018, 10:58:00 AM
    The real problem of bitcoin price decline is that more of 50% of cryptocurrency community are most of them ignorant and lazy people , they just follow rumors , they never get news from trusted source , never do research and this what create this panic Sales on the market and this bloody bath that you see right now , they heard about bad news from India so they start selling and never try to understand what was the news and  what is really going on , and did this affects on bitcoin or not , I am sick and tired of those kind of people .
    If you don't believe in bitcoin just walk away , we don't need you in our community .
    Weakening and declining virtual currency, Bitcoin is thought to be due to the booming influence of Bitcoin Cash, one of the cryptocurrencies that has recently started sticking its name. Lastly, Bitcoin dropped US $ 1,000 or Rp 13.5 million (exchange rate Rp 13,500 / dollar) in 1 hour .
    18  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How long bitcoin will survive ? on: February 16, 2018, 11:14:10 AM
    Have you guys ever think to how long is bitcoin will survive in this world ? Well, I mean is there anything that can make bitcoin bankrupt or low price, then possibly will make bitcoiners doesn't want to invest anymore. And also is there any solution to avoid those thing. Just wonder to know.
    According to Warren, the standard bitcoin will persist and arise if the Bitcoin monetary standard becomes the dominant medium of cryptocurrency exchange. Even so, the Bitcoin monetary standard will not last long. Bitcoin is a result of technological innovation. while the payments industry will also change rapidly along with technological innovations that benefit from a better exchange tool than the cryptocurrency.

    Warren mentions that this innovation will eventually come from the government, as well as from the private sector. on the other side there are other factors that also affect the Bitcoin monetary standard. Namely the pressure to return to the Fiat currency. So that monetary policy will be more active and can catch up.

    In my opinion, there will be many countries trying to profit from the bitcoin market. An example is America. It was recently rumored that American politicians are asking their government to impose a tax on any bitcoin transaction worth under $ 600.

    What is bitcoin for you? Is it a chance or a scheme to get rich? Or is it actually to keep your wealth to yourself.
    What lead you into bitcoin world and what's keeping you here?
    Btc is a decentralized currency, bitcoin is not created by a particular institution or institution, everyone can create bitcoin, an interesting and crazy concept. Imagine how if everyone can print their own money, but that's the bitcoin.
