Bitcoin Rich is when you look at the first page of the Rich list and one or more addresses of yours are there...

Most probably a false positive if you're using that installation for some time without issues. Have you checked the hash of the installation file?

It's indeed a market to explore... These guy from BTM companies are smart and looking for profit Unfortunately this on mainstream media will make people even more afraid of Bitcoin... Despite this... we're the currency of freedom, if you look at it correctly. So it's fitting there are BTM's on these kinds of shops

Xapo and Bit-X have a good reputation. You could try one of those.

I like Apple devices and Apple Pay, but the advantages of Bitcoin are numerous and pretty clear. That being said, it's enough for the London underground to update their infrastructure so these problems won't occur again. Apple can also help, and if they can minimize the problem they will surely release an update.

1.5% is decent no?
Not decent at all, especially when you think how many users they have, and how many "1,5%"'s they take...

What is criminal is that he has to pay $90 000 to defend the truth. They knew from the start that they had no chance of winning the case, but they had to make a point.
So he will get that money back, right? $90,000 is quite a lot of money. For me, it is almost 10 years of savings. In my country, if some person is wrongly charged with a crime, then the accuser should refund his legal fees and all other expenses. Can anyone confirm whether that is the case here? Also, Burt should file a court case against the Colorado cops for harassment. So far, no, but he's trying to get everything back (electronic material, computers, cellphones, his Trezor and the Bitcoins they moved from there). He also has tor rebuild his house, which was searched from top to bottom Yes, that website is his... There's a thread about this on the forums for more info: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=934268.0

Sharpen them and use them as shuriken!
My question is, why sign up and simply take this thread out of graveyard? Funny thread tho. Those problems have been addressed as far as we've been seeing!

Wow, this is really interesting to see So many transaction! And this is just around 6 blocks worth! even Japan has a hotspot.....mtgox again ? Yes, they're getting our coins back finally I am intrigued by the dot in the ocean, close to the Sao Tome / Bioko Equatorial Guinea just below Ghana in Africa. I guess it's some Casino operating from a island or something.
Does anyone know, about something operating from that location? Oil rig possibly? I know they have found lots of oil in that region... so it might just be a company doing Bitcoin
mining from a oil rig. This would make for a interesting article, if something like this could be validated.
Probably just someone who deliberately wants to hide their location

The mainstream knows how to use plastic
The Bitcoin Debit Card - now accepted wherever major credit cards are welcome worldwide
Gone are the days of asking: "do you accept bitcoin?"
Plastic does not solve everything. Plastic is just a bit of sand to everyone's eyes. it's very, very useful, but they still charge fees, and they're quite steep in soem cases... And that's not really using Bitcoin directly The really issue is mentality. Most people are a bit like race horses that have visors in their eyes and only look forward... people only look for what they know and what's already established without even considering new things. So yes: education is really needed.
Volatility isn't much of an issue nowadays, especially with services like bitpay...
adding onto that, people are scared of what they don't know, and in the mainstream media, all that gets reported about bitcoin is about how its used to buy drugs and guns off silk road. there's not much reported on the benefits (ex greece) that it can bring, and with the general population being uninformed, acceptance by the majority will be slow. Exactly, thanks for adding that Credit card fees are consistent, Bitcoin price is not consistent. Businesses have a hard time making the business case to get involved because they risk so much with the wild swings of the Bitcoin to Fiat price. That's really the main reason.
Bitpay and Coinbase take that problem completely out of the equation. The problem remains for their customers though. Bitpay does eliminate most of the volatility issues!

WU is up for replacement ASAP... many services are already facilitating fund transactions across boarders with Bitcoin for a very small fee, we've had examples of such companies on the forum in the past. And when people are literate enough to fiddle with Bitcoin themselves, costs will reduce, and the advantages comparing to WU will be immense and will make people save a lot of money. Enough of remittance empire for these companies

This was already on the forums a few days ago, I think... or maybe I saw it somewhere else. Didn't knew the artist was a user here! Good work, keep it up!

Why not just simply Bitcoin?

Hey guys,
It's been dawning on me for some time that there is one thing that businesses must hate.. credit card fees. So with this in mind why is mainstream adoption taking so long! We're not saying invalidate fiat currency and only accept BTC or Alt-coin but businesses don't seem to want to touch it?
What do you guys think the real issue is? Education among consumers and businesses? Volatile BTC price?

Did they move your funds? If not, do you have another copy of the seed, or do you know it by heart to move the funds?
I seriously don't understand why they put you on solitary when they had nothing else to take away from you...
They moved the funds (twice for some reason). There were several arrests made by the task force that weekend. They did not want us to talk to each other so they issued an administrative separation order covering all the Bitcoiners arrested in the sweep. At the detention center where I was held there are three huge separate jails, two general population jails and one SHU. They had to assign each of us to a separate jail. I was placed in the SHU on an administrative separation (as opposed to a punitive separation). So, unless they were picking on my specifically, I just got the short straw when the guards selected which jail to assign us to. Here is a picture of the center, check it out: Federal Correctional Institution Englewood I was in my cell 23 hours a day and got one hour a day out in the slightly larger cage shown here: Outdoor exersise area of the SHUThank you for your reply. That's really unfortunate they moved the coins... I seriously hope you get what's yours back. It's also very shocking that they placed you on a cage 23 hours a day while murderers, robbers and pedophiles aren't even sentenced... All the best for you and your family.

Thanks for the update I don't think you're competing with anyone. Your Bitcoin client is simply another league So you are free to think out of the box and simply ignore competition. Thanks for the compliment. It's going to keep getting better. We don't worry too much about other bitcoin wallets, although frequently there are some great elements we take inspiration from. Our real competitors are guys like square and venmo, the next generation of user experience focused fintech startups. Sort of like how tesla doesn't compete against other electric car companies, they compete against mercedes and bmw. At least that's what we're striving for. Good to see you agree with me and see your own work how it deserves to be seen Keep it up and thank you.

This is very useful! I hope it will eventually get merged with the main code. Thank you

List of countries where they jail non-violent Bitcoin users:
-United States
Didn't Ross Ulbricht tried to get somebody murdered?That sounds rather violent to me. He was allegedly coerced to hire a false hitman and the death was faked, as far as I've read. Unfortunately the list of scammers not YET sentenced is way way longer.
Just goes to show how badly justice operates pretty much everywhere.
