Mycelium looks very different now. What happened? No colored coins any more. Have they come to their senses? I like this better.
Exchange source BitcoinAverage not working since at least yesterday. Using Bitstamp for now. Do you see that too? Has BitcoinAverage disappeared or have they just changed their API?
Now let's have SegWit, please.
The only reason russian miner coin ain't on there any more is because they've finished milking noobs. If another offer comes along then there'll be something else up there in no time. Do any mobile wallets have segwit?

What is Calvin ayre media group and why should we care what this person thinks?
I'm getting kind of tired being told to respect the opinion of people I've never heard of.

so you have not downloaded/synced your wallet? are you planning to? soon or later you will sync your wallet, right? i signed with a private key from a paper wallet that's been loaded for months. i have no need to use the regular wallet and it started to get worse and worse anyway until it refused to sync. maybe it's better now. i signed and uninstalled it.

his constant whining makes him look silly.
the only effect i can imagine is some positive attention. the more he complains the more people will be intrigued by what it is he has such a problem with. if it was less than nothing it wouldn't attract any comments.
and if bitcoin can't survive one moody asshole then it has bigger problems.

Okay. Did you install wallet on windows, linux or android? Ps. Hate your name windows. as for the name, you're welcome. When I registered the site wasn't verifying I think. They changed it?
For people who want to verify their own message. In wallet verify msg, input address, "AIRDROP" and key in the 1st 2nd and 3rd field respectively. Then verify.
i guess they must've changed it. i did it successfully a couple of hours ago. it gave me a little message saying ok.

i dont know if i mange to do all thins right but once i see my BTX address listed as registered in the bitcore.cc registration lists means its ok ? also ,do i have to keep in mind anything i wrote on the sign message ? do i have to confirm something once i get the airdrop with the walletpassphrase i put in the console signing the message? thanks
if you're on that list and the site told you the message was ok, and it told me multiple times that mine wasn't until i got it right, then you've done everything right and you're set for life. Omg, i was afraid of this. I strugled hours with btx wallet before. I will try again.
Thanks for the help.
i found the wallet very buggy and it refused to sync so i gave up on it and switched to paper. for pure offline signing without any internet use it worked fine.

so what is everyone's best guess at the effect of people, probably foolishly, buying bitcoin to benefit from the upcoming possible forks on bch's price?
is it gonna pop once it's all over?

Isn't every coin descended from bitcoin? I only know of a few: NXT, NMC, XMR that have a codebase written from scratch. And I can't imagine anyone walking away from their millions in investment.
Getting away from the toxic people is not that hard. Except in the case of the remaining BTC Kore team. They're persistent buggers. Garzik seems like a massive sellout as well. I really don't have a good outlook on the upcoming 2x fork sh!tshow. Pretty surprising to see BTC soar to almost 6k right now!
Good to see BCH price show a little go-fast. Is it just me, or has the old meme of "blame the Chinese" become "blame the South Koreans"?
i meant stuff directly descended from bitcoin, such as however many bitcoins we end up with by the end of this year. bitcoin has glaring enough faults for people to be able to hijack it in their favored direction. in the meantime alts have the chance to correct that stuff before it can become a wound to pick at. of course it's wishful thinking, but i can only speak for myself. most people are gonna stay put no matter what happens.

Can i also registrate with my paper wallet. I don't know how to sign message with paperwallet. i have a paper wallet too. i downloaded the bitcore wallet to an offline computer, imported the private key from the paper wallet and signed. it never needs to touch the internet to get a signed message.

no. i don't think bitcoin gold will be big enough to be commensurate with the fall. the fall will happen because everyone loaded up on their freebie and they'll run into alts but they're probably gonna be disappointed with the end result.
still, it was a fun lesson for alts and i fully expect more people will attempt the same tricks in the future to pump bitcoin and their new shitcoin too. bch set a precedent that i really hope fades away as soon as possible.

Almost 400 registered. I'm curious to find out the total number of BTX held in those wallets Future millionaires? where did you find the stats for that? i managed to get a signed message done offline eventually. i was hoping i could do it with brainwallet page downloaded from github but i had to download the bitcore wallet in the end.

I mean Bitcoin Cash.. Other reason: 1. BCH price falling.. 2. Get free Bitcoin gold if exchange BCH to BTC. 3. Read that Bitcoin gold will be cost $1500
bitcoin gold does not have the big names or motivations behind it that bitcoin cash does. i wouldn't expect it to be a very big deal myself, though as forks go it's far less insulting than bitcoin cash is. if people are betting the farm on this they might wind up disappointed.

If Kore's 1xBTC fork dies in a death spiral, which really could happen due to sudden hashrate loss and/or an attack from miners, this will cause a major loss of confidence in BTC as a store of value. Sure, people can say "Oh, BTC is 2x now, we knew it all along.", but what about those who lost funds being on the wrong side of history clinging to their 1x coins? Those will be practically worthless!
Personally, I started losing confidence in BTC 2 years ago when it became clear that the scaling wouldn't ever get done. That's what created the whole market for alts IMHO. And that's why BCH has tremendous potential to pick up where BTC left off - with 8x the transaction capacity with 4000x lower fees.
Of course all the Kore minions will be emotional. But what choice will they have? Follow the longest chain supported by the most hashpower, or be left behind.
in that scenario i would consider any coin that was descended from bitcoin a failure and would never have anything to do with any of them again. it doesn't matter what the lead coin is, the same politics and people would infect it and the process would start over and each time it would get weaker. better to wash our hands of bitcoin, take the lessons it taught us and move on.

so bitcoin gold dev is same with bitcoin cash?? so should we invest ?? or just wait and see first before buying this coin
why buy it? millions of people will get it for free. let that settle first. i checked their website. it's big upgrade on the previously incomprehensible one that was there. they've also removed ico and premine talk but i've no idea how that was gonna work anyway. let's see if they come through with anything. i wouldn't be buying bitcoin solely to get in on this myself.

i think they're right. it is a disgusting waste of power. but because it's such a huge draw then miners are incentivized to find those over supplied areas which often means chinese hydro plants pumping out electricity to no one. geo thermal is also super cheap.
if bitcoin got really big it might be a significant driver in the refinement of renewables to the point where it won't matter at all how much electricity is being burnt.

Maybe because of this, they are taking on VISA:
1 gigabyte blocks? what do these people know that almost everyone else who's ever looked at bitcoin do not? does it require one of their $20,000 nodes? it's one thing to make it happen in a lab. it's quite another when you have to stretch it across the world a few thousand times all at once.

There are too many websites offers lending services of course with valid collateral not "collaterol". And I bet the service requires KYC policies on some websites. But if you will refer on lending section on this forum (link posted above) then every lender have its own rules to be followed.
the only one that i know of is btcjam and that's biggest piece of crap in crypto history. i'm not sure one single transaction there didn't end up being a scam of some sort. pure and simply crypto and lending is never gonna work, even more so when it's done via the internet. and what does the op need bitcoin or ethereum for anyway? if it's something truly important like an operation then we still have banks. no one needs to borrow crypto.

it has the deepest pockets, the most developers for that type of coin, the highest visibility and the most volume consistently.
whatever anyone feels about how useful it is, no other alt can match it.
any start up using ethereum has a greater chance of getting noticed by all the money attached to it. they'd be dumb to turn down the chance for greater success.

nobody will lend anything to you without collateral and they'll probably give you negative trust in the lending section anyway and you'd be better off selling your collateral instead.
bitcoin is probably the world's worst deal for both lenders and borrowers. both are likely to end up screwed.

He ran an exchange. Probably shorted the Gox collapse. If he was sitting on a hundred thousand coins I wouldn't be surprised.
great. so do a few other people. why is he the dark lord?
