btc november target is comming soon look at btc is boom Grin Grin
i think after 3rd fork the price of bitcoin will be 8k$ to 10k$ im going to convert all my altcoins to btc before hard fork so i can buy at the dip of all altcoins.

I wouldn't be so optimist if I were you. In my opinion, we can expect a huge decrease in the Bitcoin price the next following week/days when the fork will be out. It will be a good correction and I won't be surprised if the price decrease by $500 $800.
But if you are right, I will be happy to see Bitcoin reach $8000-$10,000
7622  Economy / Economics / Re: Whats the ranking of bitcoin in terms of currency on: November 03, 2017, 02:38:52 PM
I can say bitcoin is the top in the currencies. Because of it's high price ( $6000).Also it's decentralization transfer. It is also legal in whole world.That's why it is in No.1 position.  

LOL it doesn't make sense. You can't rank a (crypto) currency based on the value. You can rank it based on the adoption or something else but not based on the price... And as for the legal side of Bitcoin, so far I don't think it is allowed in the whole world as you say and so it doesn't give a point to your argument
7623  Economy / Economics / Re: Gold Is Yesterday, Here Comes Bitcoin As A Reserve Currency on: November 03, 2017, 02:27:07 PM
When we tolk about reserve we talk about a whole budget of a country. Which needs a good management.
But here, we Don't have to forget that Bitcoin stills a virtual currency.
Maybe after being a real one we can dream it to be the reserve instead of money and gold.

It doesn't work like this. The budget of a country is not based on the reserve owned, otherwise, most countries would have a very low budget.
The budget is determined by the loans countries to get and the capacity of the country to return back the money to the banks. Each country makes a loan request on a daily basis.
Most countries don't have a good management by the way, no matter what they do. That's the reason most of the countries are in negative

The market won't crash so easily. In the second part of this month, we will surely see a huge correction in the Bitcoin's value, but the market will stay the same. Nothing to be worried about. People need to be used to this and stop to be worried.
Keep to be happy with the market and enjoy.
7625  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Shameless Bittrex fee 0.001 BTC (= 7$ or 6€) on: November 03, 2017, 01:47:17 PM
What a shame.

Today i've made a 0.013 BTC withdrawal from Bittrex and they held 0.001 BTC for themselves.

And many exchanges are following this trend now.
Maybe due to the huge taxes they pay for being regulated?

F*ck regulation and f*ck the gov then.

Now tell me if it does make sense to charge you 6-7 $ for a single transfer when i can send a traditional bank transfer for less than one third of that money.
Are we going backwards now?

It's time that someone opens a serious exchange abroad somewhere that is not subject to taxes, so that exchange fees can be kept low and people are more encouraged to use them.

Or we must find an alternative.
It has nothing to do with regulation or gov. in anyway. The fees have always been the same for Bittrex or at least 1 year. You should be aware of this and check it before using it.
They don't set up the fees depending on the taxes they have to pay but depending on the network activity. If it's too much for you then don't make a low transfer, simple as that.
7626  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Best Linux distro to run a full node on: November 01, 2017, 02:44:41 PM
Dude, don't advice to people to use Arch Linux while they are not used to use GNU/Linux. I am sure he couldn't just install it. For someone who is quite new to Linux, I would never advise using Arch.
As for the OP, the controversy about Ubuntu is just that Linux users like to fight distro A VS distro B. It has been like this for years.
Linux Mint is considered as a good alternative to Ubuntu but it's just a matter of what OS type you like. There are some good OS but ugly, like there are bad Os but with a nice interface.
I advise you to visit youtube as you can find lot of videos demo on any Linux OS, so you can get an idea of what you would like (or not)
And distrowatch if you are looking for names
7627  Economy / Speculation / Re: Technical Analysis: Bitcoin Pops Again, Hits $6400 as Altcoins Go Nowhere on: November 01, 2017, 02:32:16 PM
You can't expect to see altcoins to have the same performance that Bitcoin gets. So I agree with other posters Altcoins are not going nowhere.
While it's true a lot of them are in red when you check coinmarketcap there are still some doing good. And in the crypto world, everything can change in some hours. Don't make assumptions about altcoins based on bitcoin because it is not relevant.

Satoshi has offer us a change of life or lifestyle he set up a chance for each and everyone of us to be a millionaire and enjoy a life that the government can not control, but yes this is something that banks and government would not want because they don't have control over it, but all of that company and products that you have talk about Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple are selling us their goods, services to make life easier so they can profit from us, but Satoshi had given us a chance to profit for our self that is the biggest difference that I see from all that company and Satoshi did for us,

Bitcoin has not been created to make you or anyone millionaire. Satoshi didn't create it to allow people to make a huge amount of profit. Bitcoin is not an investment, it's a currency and people should stop to talk about Bitcoin as an investment. Because people jumping on bitcoin see it wrongly as an investment while it's not.
If Bitcoin was created to make people millionaire then everyone would have bought some bitcoins already.
7629  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase Bitcoin transfer fees? on: November 01, 2017, 01:30:00 PM
Found this...

https://support.coinbase.com/customer/en/portal/articles/815435-does-coinbase-pay-miner-fees-?b_id=13521

Quote
Coinbase does not pay the network mining fee on behalf of customers for outgoing digital currency transactions.

The fee you pay for outgoing transactions is calculated dynamically at the time the transaction is created. This means that the fee may be higher or lower depending on the overall transaction volume currently on the digital currency network. The fees are displayed on the send confirmation screen. Please note that no portion of this fee goes to Coinbase.

Would be great to hear from someone whom has sent Bitcoin from Coinbase to another wallet and what it cost in miner fees percent wise please.

There are no percentage fees when making a transaction, the fee is fixed. You can see it once you entered the BTC address and the amount. If I remember correctly the fee is about 0.001BTC no matter the amount you are trying to send. And of course, the sender is charged for this fee, not the address receiving it
7630  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Poor (or non-existing?) customer service at Coinbase on: November 01, 2017, 01:13:46 PM
This is what Coinbase is famous for. Their horrible customer service. If you need help with anything simply forget about getting any help. I rarely have seen someone with a problem resolved. It's one of the reasons I stopped to use their service, after all, there is a lot of other alternatives to look for.
7631  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Coinbase doesn't have a sign message featured now? on: November 01, 2017, 12:59:44 PM
Coinbase removed this feature long time ago back in 2016 at least. So yeah you can sign a message there
I could have appreciated if they informed the customers but it doesn't look their cup of tea to inform people about changes.
As alternative, you can check Bitwala that let you getting access to your private keys, when you create your wallet.
7632  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Revolut SEPA transfer to Kraken possible? on: November 01, 2017, 12:42:38 PM
I am surprised if they are accepting deposits from Revolut. Knowing how Kraken is very strict from which banks deposits are made and not accepting deposits from some (traditional) banks, I would not be surprised if they stop deposits from Revolut in some months. Especially if they face frauds at a high rate.
7633  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think bitcoin has role to play in the future? on: October 28, 2017, 12:48:58 PM
Bitcoin is a digital currency that is fast, secure, decentralized, and which also has very cheap transaction fees.
Bitcoin has no border from one country to another that is why it is accepted all over the world.
Based on all these aspects, do you think bitcoin has a role to play in the future?

Share with us what you think? thanks Smiley
 
Based on what I am seeing now, I can clearly say that bitcoin will play a very big role in the future. Not omly because it is owning right now but because the age we are currently living now is digital which means it will absolutely bring great convinience if bitcoin will be declared as the future currency in the future.

You can make almost everything digital it doesn't mean it will be mass adopted. If there are no advantages or too much difficult to use you can't expect to see people using it. I am thinking for example about the senior people who never used a smartphone or let's say alone the www.
7634  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which bitcoin exchange do you use on: October 28, 2017, 12:28:29 PM
I was one of the people using Bittrex but stopped to use it since they become just ridiculous with their verification. Currently, I am using Cryptopia when I receive some altcoin from campaigns (which I never keep them and prefer exchange immediately upon receiving) and Kraken for buying/selling Bitcoin. I am fine with both.
7635  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you diversify? on: October 28, 2017, 12:04:06 PM
Regarding cryptocurrencies, I am just focusing on Bitcoin currently and I am fine with this. I am little tired with altcoins. From time to time I buy gold but I don't do it as an investment with the hope to make money from it. I do it to "secure" some funds. Like the majority I own a saving account, but nothing to make me rich here, only 0.75% interests yearly
7636  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why bitcoin can never go past $7000 on: October 28, 2017, 11:46:54 AM
When the price was $500 a lot of people were saying Bitcoin will never reach 1000$. When the price reached $1000 people said Bitcoin is so expensive. When it was $2000 they were saying that Bitcoin is dead. Now 2017 and a price of over $5000 those same people are trying to find excuses against Bitcoin. I think this type of people are just frustrated to not have invested some bucks sometime back when the price was  peanuts
7637  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do u think bitcoin value in 2018 will be $ 15K? on: October 28, 2017, 11:29:21 AM
It is possible theoretically. At the beginning of this year the price was about $1000 and today 10 months later it's at $5500 about, so why not. But it needs to be based on somethings. As for now there is no sign that could give a strong idea that the price will be over $15k. But with Bitcoin everything is possible lol, so fingers crossed
7638  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What are the best BTC Debit Cards? Any recommendations? on: October 25, 2017, 05:21:54 PM
The reason I ask is that I am from Australia and my Xapo Card no longer works as their card provider isn't supporting countries outside the EURO zone. 

- Any cards that anyone can recommend ?  (If it works in Australia - Even better)

- There a seriously so many to choose from, so really wanting to know one that is trustworthy please.

Thanks in advance.


So far the only services able to serve customers outside Europe are Wagecan but the cost is high ($160). The other is Cryptopay (not sure), they were concerned by this change which occurred in August but if I understood by reading here, they changed the company they work with and are now able to deliver cards from not Europeans. As I say, I am not 100% sure so better to check their website, they have a chat if you want to get an answer quickly
7639  Economy / Economics / Re: The Real Reason for Bitcoin's Rise on: October 25, 2017, 04:21:47 PM
one of which affects the bitcoin price, is the trust of bitcoin users. Cheesy


I can't say that I am perfectly right but I think the reason why bitcoin price rises is that through the years bitcoins has already widen its market to different countries wether the developed ones or the third world countries. As the years passed more and more people have proven that they earn from bitcoins and these testimonies encourages more and more people to invest, trade and mine bitcoins making its value higher too.

A lot of people were buying bitcoins as much as they can with the hope to get free coins from bitcoin gold. There are those who may have missed the free coins from bitcoin cash and didn't want to miss the possibility to get free coins from bitcoin gold.
As you can see since, Bitcoin's value has been corrected from the hype
7640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Maybe the bitcoin bubble organized by the Americans? on: October 22, 2017, 12:26:11 PM
The U.S government doesn't control the dollar. All americans know that everything in their economy is ruled by the FED. Why the FED or the government would invent something that they can't have any control on. It's not like if Bitcoin was issued by a bank. Bitcoin is not even used in their market for trade
