Hmm... so the transaction is yet to get confirmed, even after close to 100 hours (more than 4 days). I was told that one of the advantages with Bitcoin was that it could be used for micro-transactions. Seems like that is not the case.
There's alot of transaction volume, most pools would give those who pays fees priority. Also, he transferred 0.0006982 bitcoins which is a dust transaction, most pool would not confirm it. -ranochigo |

Can anyone tell me that how I can buy a bitcoins via Credit Card Payment....  ? I have bought small amounts at virwox. However, their fees are high and transactions can be slow as the trade volume is relatively low. Considering it accepts credit card and no verification, it is quite a good choice. -ranochigo |

VPS mining is not recommanded since if you use too much resources for long periods of time, the provider can and will kick you out of the VPS. Mining is more for GPU and ASICs if you want profit. You can mine those CPU-only coins but you won't make much profit.

Generate a paper wallet from a offline linux computer that has never and will never touch the internet. and never use an offchain/third-party wallet, always have full access to your coins.
-ranochigo
Can you please explain how "has never and will never" is better than just "will never" touch the net I guess what you said is right, but couldn't the one that have touched the internet and infected with virus affect the outcome of the address calculation? -ranochigo |

Remember, with every purchase there is a risk. Treat the BTC / USD market as the stock market. It can go up and down. There could be a massive sell-off of 1 million coins tomorrow, and quite literally take the market down at least 40-50%.
It's worse than the stock market. This is basically a rogue area still. Anyone can do almost anything. There is no "insider trading." People can openly manipulate the market, etc. It's rewarding, to be sure, but it's also very dangerous. I have saw a few price crashes, it is indeed quite risky. I'm going to use the funds that I don't need to use to buy some bitcoin. I think this is a risk I can take. -ranochigo |

Well I dont think that its any secret trick, its very easy to spam in regional boards and be safe, the mods are not so strict over there. Everyone's a hypocrite. What else is new?
Are you the real TradeFortress or did he sell you that account?
Well I think he's the real one. Why do you think THE TRADE FORTRESS would sell his account?? VIP status, hero member, negative trust. Perfect for a rich troll. -ranochigo |

2 things to note :-
1. Whoever is quoting TradeFortress, please note that u r quoting an image and the image source is controlled by TradeFortress. So, at a time, when u wont look back to the topic, those images may get replaced by something as his will and your quotes will also carry that. If it is replaced by the Silk Road 2.0 URL ...U may be in trouble.
2. There is no point in pointing what Davout is doing in French board. He is the Mod over there. Moreover, Davout does not have a paid sig. He is advertising his own company.
Just so you know, images are now proxied. They appear as if they were from the forums. Your first point is invalid. Do you understand what a proxy means? If TF updates the images, the proxy will update the image as well. Thus your argument is invalid. +1 I just found it interesting... so sharing here. Till now all posted made by TF can be found using the URL http://198.27.102.170/talk/v?i=x where x=1,15  I wonder what is the i/p URL here from where he is entering the text ? I tried to PM TF regarding this, but it seems I'm blocked. Just want to confirm that... 1. is it only me that TF has blocked or 2. I cant PM anyone with -ve feedback or 3. TF has blocked anyone to PM him He have likely blocked everyone since people would be asking him about how is he spending the 4100++ BTC. Does he control the IP address or is it a image hosting? Is there plans to make every image uploaded unchangeable? It seems to be quite dangerous. -ranochigo |

I am new to this new currency, can someone suggest me some websites to learn more about it?

I would start out with the Bitcoin wiki. And then I'd look into something like a faucet rotator to get some free coins to experiment with. It will help with the hands-on part. Thanks for all your help, I would like to know if bitcoin mining profitable anymore? What is ASIC, where can i purchase one? -ranochigo You can buy ASIC miners In many online shops for example this one : https://www.mining-asics-technologies.com/ (this Is just an example) and Is mining profitable? I would just buy bitcoins and keep them instead of mining, because look bitcoin went up $80 in few days! If you have 10 or more bitcoins that's over $800 profit, that's why you should buy bitcoins and keep them till they rise. If you have a lot to invest cloud mining at cex.io could be profitable If you are trading your Hash while mining. I myself just keep bitcoins. I'm 100% behind just buying Bitcoins instead of mining. Mining profitability goes down every single day. Bitcoins go up (not every day, but on average). It seems like a pretty clear choice. Mining is only worth it if you have a massive amount of money and feel like spending most of your time trying to maximize income. I have around 2k to spend, how can i earn some revenue from that? since my electricity rates are really high. -ranochigo Buy Bitcoins. Seriously. It would be significantly more than that to get involved if you actually want to hit ROI (by more I mean 12k+ minimum). Anything under that and you're pretty much throwing money away. This is especially true with high electricity rates, since it means your income is dropping even faster. Going to get some more cash now. Thank you for your help.  -ranochigo |
