Of course I care about my money xD....  you may think as you like friend. Regards.

Of course. They care about your money too. They also care about other people's money. Do you?

He was right.. or very close. You guys are going to nitpick him for being 2 hours late and $1 off? Sheesh. Bulltards out for blood.

How so? The lowest it got over the weekend was on Sunday, when it just nudged £229 on Stamp. It didn't go below £231 on Bitfinex. Since then it's gone to $223, today (Tuesday). I suppose there's a chance it might reach $215 - two days late - but even now I'm pretty sceptical.

2 hours and $1? ITYM Two days and $15.

Yeah man, everyone does what he wants ... To me the concern is trying to take my money.

OK, well the "idiots" "spamming" here are trying to warn people that their money is at risk. Their concern is the same as yours, except they're concerned not just for themselves but for other people as well. It seems a little odd dismissing them as "idiots" or "spammers".

Say you are categories and concerns different. Wink

They are concerned that scrypt.cc will take money off people. You are concerned that scrypt.cc will take money off you. I'm not seeing a difference, except that you seem to have a more narrow focus: they care about you losing money, you care about you losing money; they care about other people losing money, and I'm not sure whether you do or not.

I idiot with money enclosed, that sometimes get some withdrawal.
By the way I forgot the category of idiots "i don't know that I do here, I am lost"

Based on your experience, don't you think other people should be warned that they might experience what you've experienced? Or would you prefer more people to lose money too?
686  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Scrypt.CC | Scrypt Cloud Mining on: September 22, 2015, 08:13:48 AM
doors and open for morons who still keep defending the scam with 0 IQ with their arse wide open...lol....you can find some idiots around here.... Grin Grin Grin Grin

Here are idiots who continue to invest knowing that it is a scam, are the idiots who have lost so much money because not know how to invest and you have to give them a manual for investment, are the idiots who are here without investing anything 24h crying and spamming (hopeless idiots), are the idiots who just pass by here to say that we are all idiots just to annoy, etc ..
In which category of idiot are you?

I dunno? Which category do you fit in?

Really?  Think about this: If all signature campaigns were banned, would you still stay active on this forum?  I know 90% of the people currently in signature campaigns will not. :-/
But hey, I guess that's that for our current generation here on bitcointalk Tongue

Why sure. I've always been active making at least 14 posts a week before joining a signature campaign. The reason that I'm very active in BCT is because I'm a huge Bitcoin fan. Ever since I got into Bitcoin, I've got fascinated by its decentralized nature. So, even if all campaigns were banned I would still contribute to this forum.  Cheesy

Me too - I've been on Bitcointalk since 2010, and only signed up to a sig campaign a few weeks back. Having said that, I suspect you and I are very much the minority - and for that reason I'd be hesitant to ban sig campaigns. They seem to attract people to the forum, and through that people are learning about Bitcoin. I don't know whether mass adoption is possible (or necessary for Bitcoin's future success), but I do believe that more people learning about (and using!) BTC is a positive thing, despite the "endless September" vibe that the sig campaigns seem to have generated!

Now we have an even more robust price index.

Nice one! I've seen more changes today, as well. I like the "time to expiry" change to the tabs on the trading page.

One change I'm less keen on is when I download historical positions from the history page - the opening time format has changed from "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS" to "Sep 21, 12:00" - the comma makes it really tricky to import the downloaded file to a spreadsheet, and makes it inconsistent with the other date fields in the file.
689  Economy / Speculation / Re: Predictions on: September 21, 2015, 11:55:33 AM
What is something so special about it that it needs to be password-protected? o.o

You haven't understood, there's nothing special inside, password protection is just guarantee that his predictions have not being changed. You get prediction earlier and nobody can change it.

Not that I think it makes much sense, his predictions are probably childish.

It seems to me that it would make far more sense for the OP to post their predictions openly, here, and then ask someone to quote them (so we know the predictions haven't been altered by the OP). Like other posters there's no way I'm downloading some random binary file off the internet.
690  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: chief economist Bank of England: we need adopt a digital currency like Bitcoin on: September 21, 2015, 08:26:40 AM
UK has a population of about 64-65 millions but we only have 21 millions BTC....

1 BTC isn't the smallest unit - it's subdivided into a further 100,000,000 units.

That said, there's no way the Treasury will adopt BTC. They'll continue to want something firmly under their control.
691  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? on: September 21, 2015, 08:01:40 AM
I don't know, but apparently "he" did tell WikiLeaks not to take Bitcoin because he didn't want the negative attention...

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/cryptocurrency-round-nakamoto-pleaded-wikileaks-bitcoin-boosted-by-dcc-1465842

What is apparent to me is that the the Western intelligence apparatus is capable of discovering his identity and equally capable of destroying Bitcoin if the central banks wanted it done yet though don't.  The DOJ has even said Bitcoin has beneficial purposes.  I think for monetary policy and other reasons the idea of a cashless economy with a traceable ledger is appealing to central banks and regulators.

I saw this article posted on Btcointalk a few days ago - it's from the UK's most popular broadsheet, the Daily Telegraph, and quotes the Bank of England's Chief Economist (the BoE is the UK's central bank, the British equivalent of the Fed):

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/bank-of-england/11874061/Negative-interest-rates-could-be-necessary-to-protect-UK-economy-says-Bank-of-England-chief-economist.html

Quote
Traditionally policymakers have resisted cutting rates below zero because when the returns on savings fall into negative territory, it encourages people to take their savings out of the bank and hoard them in cash.

This could slow, rather than boost, the economy. It would be possible to get around the problem of hoarding by abolishing cash, Mr Haldane said, adding: "What I think is now reasonably clear is that the payment technology embodied in [digital currency] Bitcoin has real potential."

Since few days I use http://littlebits.xyz/ and I Can't find the withdraw function anyone know if this site real payout and when it do? Could not find anything about it hope someone do.

Thanks in advance!

I've just had a look - the site asked for a Bitcoin address (I entered a fresh one), then presented me with three captchas. It looks like it's just a standard faucet, so I'm assuming it'll pay the 15k satoshi direct to the address I entered. I couldn't see anything obviously scammy about it, unless it's getting me to complete captchas which it then uses elsewhere. I don't think there will be a withdraw function, because they ask for a Bitcoin address. I'll edit this if I don't receive the 15k satoshi...

Edit: well, over 24 hours have passed and there's no sign of any payment from littlebits.xyz. I'm inclined to say the site is either non-functional or it deliberately harvests captcha entries. Either way, I'll be avoiding it in future. If anything changes I'll update here.

They'll find that most of it was eaten to pay for the honour of bankruptcy. What remains, hookers and blow.

Well, there's good news and bad news.

The good news is - of the money recovered, there's $10 million left after expenses.

The bad news is - the bankruptcy trustee has decided to allow himself more time to burn through the remaining $10 million investigate claims.

694  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 20, 2015, 12:35:40 PM


About a third of Bitstamp's volume: localbitcoins.com vs bitstamp.


From the charts you refer to:

Volume of Localbitcoins: 1.5 million BTC
Volume of Bitstamp: 0.3 million BTC

I wouldn't call 0.3 a third of 1.5. It's a fifth.


You've got me! I wasn't paying too much attention and just gave the charts a cursory look. Either way, it's still more than I expected but much less than Stamp and Finex.
695  Other / Meta / Re: Suggestion to improve post quality on Bitcointalk on: September 20, 2015, 10:56:34 AM
The use of the ignore function can help in this case.... 

that just got me an idea: maybe ignore count should be public so sig-campaigns can block users with too many ignores.

That only works if people use the ignore list as intended! I don't know if I'm unique in this regard, but I misuse the ignore list - there are plenty of good posters on mine, simply because currently they're mostly talking about things that don't directly affect me (for example, the blocksize debate - I follow the debate periodically, and use my ignore list to screen out people who regularly or mostly discuss the debate. That's no reflection on the posters I'm ignoring, simply something I do to make it easier to focus on other things. And, obviously, I remove people from my ignore list almost as frequently as I add people).
696  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 20, 2015, 09:55:42 AM


What volume does localbitcoins have? I cannot believe its got more volume than BTCChina or Bitstamp. If they averaged the price based on both volume and price I suspect localbitcoins would barely make any difference to the averahe price between exchanges. There's no point using Preev.com to get a reliable average price until they change their averaging method. If they made that minor change they would get far more page views than they do now.
 

About a third of Bitstamp's volume: localbitcoins.com vs bitstamp.

IMO, it's not just the volume, it's also the OTC-nature of localbitcoins, and that there are two types of trade - online and face-to-face (with the latter having a much larger spread). Totally agree with you about averaging - if preev.com limited itself to exchanges, and took volume into account, it'd be useful.
697  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 20, 2015, 09:23:10 AM
Preev.com says $244. Where is that price based on? I don't see it here in this topic.

Apparenty they use the average of four exchanges - including localbitcoins.com. If you click on the settings icon (the cog at the top right) you can select one exchange - localbitcoins is showing $360ish (ouch!)

I don't really understand why people include localbitcoins in things like this - it's not an exchange and it really confuses things.

18th November 2013! It went up over $1000 around New Year 2013-14.

bfxdata.com has it.
