it is possible for it to receive bans... but I don't think it will ever be stopped. And morally it is not even right to ban it. How can you ban people from agreeing of using anything as money? That's how money begun to exist anyway.

It has indeed no popups, and has solvemedia captcha, with a much prefer over recaptcha. But once claimed it says the amount has been accumulated. Do I need to register to be able to withdraw or does it automatically withdraw at a certain number?

I mostly put orders a little lower than the highest buy order, and then (if it triggers) try to sell 2-5% higher. If it goes lower, try to buy more to compensate.
But only with good altcoins. If I know by experience they are low, I buy more. If I see a pump is going on and it will reach a higher value, I buy inmediately... etc.
ps: I am not getting much from that strategy.

I also use Electrum, but that is not really offline. The best, cheaper offline wallet possible I can think of are paper wallets. Although I am quite sure that original poster is not asking about that really.

Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin vs Mortgage
|

I'm retired and made weekly payments for years. Was $250K in 2011? Now $500 mortgage payment monthly. I'm not a math guru and was basically trying to decide whether to pay 15BTC once, or $500/month. I just feel in my heart that 15BTC is really $150K to $1.5M. If I had USD instead of BTC I would've paid it off ASAP, but BTC is worth WAY more than $3,500/coin IMHO. Thanks in advance, guys!
Seems to me that you value being free of debt more than being rich. So do I. My vote is for you to pay your debt, I think you will have more piece of mind that way. Even in the case Bitcoin skyrockets, you'll likely to say to yourself "but I am free of debt now". The peace you receive from being free of debt greatly surpasses the anxiety of ...."Will Bitcoin grow?..." and then when it grows "Should I pay my debt now?" and then when it goes down... "Should I have paid my debt?". Besides, you have more Bitcoin, and you can buy 500$ of BTC monthly from the position of being free of the mortgage. You'll have control. And, just in case you are a believer, consider Romans 13:7-8. Hope it helps

I do not like Bittrex that much. I have used it for some time, but it lacks volume as compared to poloniex, which would be my first choice. But that is because I usually trade LTC, DOGE, ETH... major currencies and not new altcoins (I guess bittrex is better for that)

The blockchain keeps track of every transaction and that makes somewhat easy to trace. I think that if any of these transactions can be assigned to one ip, it makes easier to trace the participants.
Not too easy, but yet I think it is traceable.

It is true that there is no innovation in doge, that there are no news or project... that it does not have a limit in supply. But I have seen it raise one or two times from low prices and still has a good community. It can raise again.

On one hand, bitcoin surely can survive without China. Would be a big crash if all chinese sell, but slowly it will recover.
On the other hand, I doubt China will go out of Bitcoin entirely. Even with a government ban, some will yet hold on to their bitcoins. Chinese people have to hack even to get to the full internet.... many will take the risk I guess. And as for exchanges, the government cannot ban the foreign ones and Chinese people can just use them.
This is a blow, but surely bitcoin (and chinese users, if the rumors end to be true) will recover.

As it is now, price is yet much, much higher than it was at the beginning of may. Aren't we happy with such a wonderful raise?
I will hold. Even with this big 1000$+ crash, Bitcoin always ends up higher. It advances 10 steps and goes back only 3.

This is a breath of fresh air. However, the damaged has been already and seeing the price now at $3800-$3900. I consider the earlier fake news that someone or some big entities have already benefited from the string of negatives news coming from China. Maybe they have sold already around $4700-$4800 at the height of the massive bullrun, and they spreading fake news so that they can buy in this dip. I already think that Chinese banning or closing down local exchanges are really a band move on their side. They should put a tighter regulation and this is a win-win for all of us. Hope that the dust is cleared already and investors started to go gather and buy bitcoins once again.
I agree. This seems a bit orchestrated by someone to buy cheaper bitcoins. But that is not bad either. It means they will buy again, so Bitcoin will recover. And maybe is time to buy a little more now.

Letting imagination fly a bit, it is possible that chinese government spread the rumor to get his hands on cheaper bitcoin. Then rumors show to be fake and it goes up again...
But I think Bitcoin needs China, and Russia, and all countries (kumbaya! lol). The more spread the better. Even if China has too much control now, it is not likely to retain it as it goes more mainstream.
