I dont know if this one is the best, but im earning with it, displaying ads on my forum. Here u go : https://a-ads.com/ I also like it. I would also recommend https://adbit.co/. It is good if your site has lot of traffic and it is also good for advertising. |

what is the minimum and maximum duration for the transaction?
There is no minimum and maximum. However, you can take 10 minutes as minimum but it is not really true in all cases. |

5% for instant cash is fine. But what about the 0.005BTC fee for every POS? Wouldn't it be better if you start charging it in percent? Its like if I want to buy a book online (which costs me $2), ill have to pay 0.005 BTC(1$) as a fee to Bit-x, do you even know that its like 50% ? Your strategies are a clear reflection that bit-x is not targeting normal users as a customer for its MasterCard.
And I don't like your definition of "inactive", 5 times a month???!!! Do you want my grocery store to start accepting master card? Or do you want me to use my master card for buying a chewing gum or a bottle of Pepsi? That will never be possible. A normal user will each month have to pay 0.05BTC/month for being inactive and even if he wants to be active according to your definition, he'll have to use the card 5 times, making him to spend at least 0.025BTC(incase of POS and higher if he wants cash out the money). Bit-x should be more concerned about reaching to a normal bitcoin user base and not using their card as a means of creating a get-rich-quick scheme for themselves(you wont succeed). The fee needs a lot lot of alteration. You cannot expect people to just hand over bit-x their money just in the form of fee.
Most shops already do accept MasterCard™ as a payment method. Most people already know that credit/debit cards aren't meant for small purchases due to their fees not making small purchases worthwhile (they can still be used for this purpose nonetheless). 5 transactions a month is easily attainable (the odd ATM withdrawal and POS transactions in store). 0.025 BTC for those 5 transactions is currently $6, not a huge amount to the average Bitcoin user and this value can be less than 1% of your total if you transact over $600 which is, again, not a huge amount. Fees are costs to a business (bank fees, MasterCard™ fees, actual Bit-X running cost fees), they aren't part of a 'get-rich-quick' scheme for any business. A service costs money to run and users must be prepared to pay those fees to use the service they're interested in. $600 is in total what I spend on myself in ONE WHOLE month. This including my schooling fee, eatables , internet, everything and everything. And its not possible to spend 600$/month using master card , so it wont be profitable for a normal user like me, I.e it wont cost me less than 1% ever. 600$/month may be a small amount for you(and in developed nations) but in a country like India, 600$ is like a lot, and people spend way less than this amount on each person in most of the countries. MasterCard can be very well used for making small purchases as well if you convert the fee into percentage. Its your misconception that people will be happy to pay 6$/month(at least) for just almost no reasons. The card is only to very less extent useful in developed nations, and 6$ is a handsome fee that you gonna charge. If you do not consider changing the fee then consider changing the marketing strategy and stop selling the card to developing nations and only sell it in the developed nations cause the card wont be welcomed by a normal user. Bit-x really needs to focus on making the card available and use full to a "normal" bitcoin users, you need to get your concepts clear about a normal bitcoin user and being "active"(P.S : 5 times a month is hyperactive). I agree with you in this. From above example, $500 = ₹31721.23 $15 = ₹951.64 0.1 BTC = ₹1506.92 The fees in this example is high. Can you make custom fee for developing countries like India? I don't think you will do this but I recommend to decrease the general fees to ensure fairness. |

Put it in your signature and post across the board. If you offer good referral commission, then some people like me may carry your sig as well  But how? Signatures are only up to 50 characters. How can i put images / link eh? See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178608.0. |

Sorry! Slight miscalculation. Thank you!
I forgot about USD to other currency conversion fee. Can you tell me what's the fee? Current fee in percentage for USD ATM withdrawal isn't bad. If USD to INR conversion fee isn't high, then it will be good.
There is no exchange fee, Bit-X uses internal exchange rates I believe now (all fees can be found here: https://bit-x.com/guide/bitx-cards). BIT-X will be USD/EUR/GBP denominated card and I will be withdrawing INR. Are you telling me there is no currency conversion fee? I checked the page but there is no mention about currency conversion fee. |

5 ATM withdrawals: (0.02 BTC x 5) + (3% x 5) = 0.1 BTC + 15%. Care to reconsider? 3 transactions at 3% each equals a total of 3% for all transactions, not 15%. Assume I am withdrawing same amount 5 times from ATM. Then total fees will be 0.1 BTC + 15% of total withdrawn. That's not how it adds up. Assume you withdraw $100 5 times. ATM withdrawal 1: 3% ($3) ATM withdrawal 2: 3% ($3) ATM withdrawal 3: 3% ($3) ATM withdrawal 4: 3% ($3) ATM withdrawal 5: 3% ($3) Total withdrawn: $500 $ fee: $15 $75 ( not the 15% you thought it was) $15/$500: 3% Hope that clears that up.

The speaker says: "There is no excuse for any Muslim not to migrate to the Islamic State... joining [its fight] is a duty on every Muslim. We are calling on you either to join or carry weapons [to fight] wherever you are."
-snip-
A duty? No excususes?  There are many reasons/excuses for not joining this innocents-killing army. I really hope he knows what he is talking about. There is nothing hidden in what he is, just a political psycho. Excuses for jihad? 1. al-Baqarah: 216 2. an-Nisa’: 74 3. at-Tawbah: 38-39 4. Muhammad: 4-6 5. at-Tawbah: 41 and more... Yes, nothing hidden, his lineage all the way back to the prophet Muhammad (PBUH), don't you know? Out of context verses. You should look what these verses tell. The verses you picked doesn't end there or start there. Those verses tell to fight when the non-Muslims at the time of prophet tortured and killed many Muslims. Muslims had no choice other than to fight and these verses came at that time. It is mentioned in Qur'an that if the non-Muslims(at the time of prophet) didn't want to fight, don't hurt them. But what does it mean "jihad"? Sometime ago, I have asked one my muslim friend and he told me that it is not a question of war/kill etc.... but jihad means an effort for 'you' to help others and spread the Islam religion. Now I do not think the ISIS members are muslim due this fact, they are not spreading the Islam (the contrary). Now I do not know if this is true (but I suppose : yes). Maybe someone here can say what does it mean "jihad". |

First of all, transaction fee is based on BTC not USD. Mixing both will make the calculation more complex.
Yes. Transaction fees are decreased from your balance. Current recommended fee for sending a 1000 bytes transaction is 0.0001BTC which is ~$0.02 at current value. If you can't use $0.02 as transaction fee, you can reduce 0.0001BTC to 0.00005BTC or so but remember, the priority of your transaction will decrease and as a result, it will take time for your transaction to be confirmed. It can be even dropped from network because of low fee.

Vod is trusted by Dooglus & Tomatocage and already untrusted by HostFat. In this scenario, if another user of DefaultTrust level 1 untrust Vod in their trust list, then will Vod's feedbacks lose its power to turn someone red/green ?
People who exclude must be greater than people who include Vod to loose his power. Dooglus, Tomatocage & HostFat all are in DefaultTrust level 1. Now, how do I know who is in greater power than the other ? Oops! I didn't meant "greater power". Rephrasing: Number of people who exclude Vod must be greater than people who include Vod to loose his power. Now, Vod is excluded by one user and included by two users but for Vod to loose his power, two more users need to exclude him. |
