Wow! This is unbelievable.
It must be sent by mistake.
Or maybe s/he is so rich and he wants to give miners some free btc
          
He might have done something illegal and paid these much fees to get confirmed so fast. Although a transaction can be confirmed fast with .0005btc !

Are these transactions related to replace by fees ?

Spreadcoins new developers attempt to incentivize Bitcoin nodes

It’s easy to see from hashrate charts that the Bitcoin network continues to grow stronger from a computational standpoint. However, nodes also play an important role in supporting the blockchain, and they’ve been in steady decline.

Although the technical skills needed to run a Bitcoin node have decreased over the years, the resource requirements and obligation have gone the opposite direction. While the network is still healthy, more nodes would help further decentralize the network, disperse trust, and make it more expensive to mount attacks.

This year, the cryptocurrency ecosystem saw lots of ups and downs. While bitcoin came under fire for its alleged use by the terrorist group ISIS, several bitcoin-based start-ups closed their doors.

Here’s a list of companies that failed to make it through 2015:

1. Mining ASIC Technologies

2. CoinTerra

3. Bonafide

4. Brawker

5. Buttercoin

Are Universities Likely to Offer Bitcoin Degrees in the Future?

Bitcoin has been around for about five years and was slow to catch on before becoming extremely popular with people who saw value in it. Its price has been highly volatile at times, but many people feel that it is a worthy alternative to fiat (paper) currencies.

Experiences with the use of Bitcoin have been varied since its inception.

Bitcoin Hit 100 Million Transactions and 15 Million Coins on Christmas


It was an eventful long weekend for Bitcoin, which reached a symbolic milestone when the 100 millionth transaction was recorded.

It was an eventful long weekend for Bitcoin. On Christmas Day, it reached a symbolic milestone when the 100 millionth transaction was recorded on its network.

The number of transactions per day has been steadily growing over time. The phenomenon is interpreted by some as evidence of the increasing adoption of Bitcoin, though most of the transactions are not commercial in nature.

It will reach 1000$ if people stopped getting frightened every prices falling and they Starr selling all their bitcoin causing more fall in the prices !
I'm not very optimistic like you but I hope we will reach 500:600 level with stable trend

Colbert: Trump is "my old character with $10 billion"

In some ways, Stephen Colbert might argue that Donald Trump would have him out of business when he launched his campaign for president.

"I'm not the first person to say this, but I completely agree that he's my old character with $10 billion," Colbert told "Face the Nation" moderator John Dickerson in an interview that aired Sunday. He was referring to the conservative caricature he used to play on his show, "The Colbert Report," before taking over as the host of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert."

"One of the reasons why you can't do that old character anymore (is) because he's doing it better than I ever could. Because he's willing to drink his own Kool- Aid. And manufacture and distribute it," Colbert explained. "If money is speech, he's got a $10 billion mouth and doesn't have to spend any of it because everyone will point a camera at him."

Colbert said he "really didn't think [Trump] would be doing this well" in his presidential campaign - putting him on equal footing with nearly every political pundit in America. As far as a theory of this election goes, he said, "all bets are off."

I do not think that Iraqi army are suitable for this mission to liberate Ramadi. because last year they fled without fighting and left the city and their american weapons and vehicles for ISIS. they are some cowards

hahaha

It might seams good when the btc price go down for a faucet owner.

BTCC Plays Santa, Contributes 100 Free Nodes to Bitcoin Network

BTCC, the leading bitcoin mining and exchange platform decided to play Santa this Christmas. The company, previously known as BTCChina has reportedly contributed over 100 full nodes to the entire bitcoin network across the world. These full nodes are distributed across the world (5 continents) and they will continue supporting the bitcoin network. 

This donation comes at the right time for Bitcoin as the network has been facing a steady decline in the number of nodes. Unlike mining, not many are interested in hosting a bitcoin node as it doesn’t pay. While bitcoin mining pays rewards to miners, hosting bitcoin nodes doesn’t. But, these very nodes are responsible for verifying transactions and integrity of the network. The bitcoin full nodes store and serve entire copies of the blockchain to the network. The number of nodes are directly proportional to the degree of decentralization of the bitcoin platform. The steady decrease in the number of bitcoin full nodes over a full year already had bitcoin on the path towards centralization.

Is Gemini Making Enemies Already?

It’s been seven months since the grand opening, and digital currency exchange Gemini already seems to be making a few enemies.

Gemini is the brainchild of Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss. Earning fame through their lawsuit against Facebook mogul Mark Zuckerberg, they have gone on to build solid names for themselves in the arena of bitcoin and digital currency.

Gemini has many benefits, a big one being that it qualifies as a fiduciary and offers FICO insurance like a standard financial institution. In light of cyber-attacks on fellow platforms such as Bitstamp, Gemini offered the security that several Bitcoin enthusiasts were looking for, but simply couldn’t find. The company opened up to individuals and businesses in 26 states, and it seemed things were off to a good start.

Here is my vanity address with my username

No one should trust these sites that create vanity addresses as they can store the private keys and steal all funds that come to the address.
But vanitygen generator is trustworthy as long as you use it on a clean and offline PC

I just checked this site now and it is working without any issues.
By the way I like cointelegraph because of their illustration designs which they create for each article.

The Army of Islam, one of the main rebel groups fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, has a new leader, a day after its chief was killed in an airstrike near Damascus, dealing a major blow to the groups that are fighting the Syrian military.

The group appointed Essam al-Buwaydhani, a field commander known as Abu Hammam, as its new leader, The Associated Press reports. He replaces Zahran Allouch, who was killed in Friday’s airstrike that was claimed by the Syrian government. Two other senior rebels, one from Ahrar al-Sham and the other from  Faylaq al-Rahman, were also killed in the operation against the headquarters of the Army of Syria.

I do not think so,
Because the resistance level in 400 is strong and it prevents the price from going down two times before
If the price go below 400$ , we will see more lower price later

It sounds like your computer is defected with some viruses or trojans. So first, move all your btc to another wallet and I recommend you to use mycelium wallet if you have an android device.
Secondly, format your PC and install a pure , clean operation system.
