I've said this before, but there is really nothing we can do about it, other than bitch scream and kick and voice our opinions, unless you have a very large mining farm Shocked

Main thing for me is, in the end I want only one coin. This talk of 2 chains is ridiculous.
So the rapper was right.
Two Chainz! Grin

Somebodys got to make a meme of that when it does split into two different opposite directions.
382  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC vs BTU will lead to Ethereum dominance. on: March 25, 2017, 11:55:30 AM
The fact that it takes the same hdd space (i take your word for it, i dont have btc chain downloaded) has nothing to do with efficiency. ATM it is several times faster. In few weeks raiden, which is lightning network equivalant, will be implemented. First guess was late march but it was pushed into early april, no exact date.
Plus, if bitcoin happens to die, every single investor will be more cautious about what they invest into. The era when faith was all it was needed to keep a coin value up will be over. People will document themselves more, research more.
ETH's value is backed up by several factors:
1. ethereum foundation which is extremely transparent. After the dao hack they lived off the dumped etc, eth tokens quantity sold is negligible at best.
2. dapp developers and the entire dev ecosystem
3. institutions and corporations working on ethereum and contributing to the platform. JP morgan released some eth software aswell on github, but i didn't research so most likely there's ton of software released by corporations, i just happen to stumble over it, i didn't look for it. Also santander bank has a demo on youtube demonstrating the crypto backed by fiat tokens on ethereum. But for public release massive scaling is needed. UN works silently on ethereum aswell. You see, these institutions, academics, they don't make press conferences to announce they work on it, but that pic doesn't need any more words http://innovation.wfp.org/blog/blockchain-crypto-assistance-wfp .
4. EF has no mining cartel, unlike bu-core.
Those are some good points.
And what really shook me about ethereum is the United Nations operative who are using it to better those poorer countries in a way for them to use it as a means to buy food with it. Unlike what bitcoin has been known for gambling with and using it as a means to buy illicit drug with it via it's frontier inception into the spotlight silk road.
That will never be bleached out of the minds of those who use it no matter how hard any one governing body tries to white wash it away.
Atleast ethereum has a clean start to work with reputation wise. Smiley

Virwox if you have USD fiat on your credit card or Paypal.

If you are meaning exchanges as in for using it for trading on the btc market prices with other Alts like ETH
the you are out of luck.
They ALL require you to do customer identification in order to verify your account and they all do need time as in days to validate you are who you say you are.
Sorry to tell you but it is the law for them to do this so they are not giving or laundering money to and from terrorist groups and for use in organized crime. If they don't do this then they will revoke their license as an exchange and why would you think they would want to do this for anyone of due to their customers trying to hide themselves out of the law's eyes that they govern in their respective country?

I've just confirmed yobit isn't paying anyone anymore. The campaign will be stopped as mentioned in their chatbox. Someone said it there.
So shouldn't this be announced to the ones running the signature campaign thread listing all the ones who are running and the ones who aren't?
They should of announced it on their signature campaign thread as well to inform their campaign participants.
Is their exchange going under as well without informing people to remove their coins before that happens?
Of course not!  Tongue
They will want to run away like Mt.Gox and Bitfinex did with customer coins. Roll Eyes
385  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin webwallets on: March 24, 2017, 01:58:03 AM
I found a good one that holds most of the major alts which are worth mbtc or more per coin.
Exodus can handle Ethereum, Dash, Doge, Litcoin and of course Bitcoin.
It also has a nifty feature that lets you do an in wallet exchange of each coin using shapeshift which works out to be pretty cool. Because after you proceed with the exchange it timestamps that transaction with the price at the time of the exchange and then tells you the current price of that same transaction in live price rate. Every nice feature for those that are particular about the price you paid during the exchange like myself. Wink
I use to do it in a spreadsheet to see how much I lost when the price spiked and now all the sudden rose when I wanted to go ahead and do an exchange. A real time saver for a price scrooge who cares about that sort of stuff. Cheesy
The live price ticker of what you have currently in your wallet is also a nice feature as well.
Not sure what price they use to give that rate though.
That is something to ask the developers about on their ANN thread created by Omegastarstream on another thread in the exchanges section of the forum.
Not exactly a web wallet but a downloadable one with these features are really cool to have besides one that resides on the web like blockchain.info. That's for sure! Smiley
386  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 24, 2017, 01:38:26 AM
i'll be buying tomorrow.

but i won't enjoy it.
It's down to 1017 now so maybe the good time to buy a little now.
From the whales buying up now is going to cause it to surge tomorrow and by time you wake up it will be just too late for buying near $1000 again until something big happens.
And we all know what that is. Undecided
387  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [Unofficial] Exodus Wallet | Multi-Currency | Built-in Exchange on: March 24, 2017, 01:30:37 AM
Have used it for transferring btc to ethereum and my first transaction with the conversion took less than five minutes using shapeshift as the exchanger for converting to the alt coin but now it is taking longer.
Does the spread % at the bottom make a difference? I noticed the first time I did the transfer it was lower, at 59% but now it is higher at 69,5%. I thought this was the margin that shapeshift takes for the conversion rate.
Does doing it this way automatically within the wallet differ in the rate the sender gets charged by shapeshift if they were to do it straight from their website?
I want to know for comparisons sake and if it was higher than using a site like less say changelly  or off an exchange site.
Just started into exchanging my bitcoin for alt coins and want to know for the best bang for my bitcoin buck. Grin

ShapeShift is available for everyone and so the wallet, simply check your transaction in the wallet and check the price on the site and see the difference yourself. I'm personally not really a trader myself so I couldn't tell you for sure. I can let the staff know about your question If you feel like it.
Yes if you can let them know about my inquiry about the conversion fees that they charge within the wallet transition process compared to going directly to shapeshift.io to do this exchange.
Maybe a chart or graph presentation of this explanation (with an example with another coin with btc perhaps?) would be nice to see so to have it in visual a representation to clarify it for us all.
Thanks.
388  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: PIVX Breaks $1 on: March 23, 2017, 10:15:25 PM
Is this a coin made by the dash people trying to play both sides of the coin so to say? Undecided
How could something that wasn't heard of for for long get pumped this fast?
It has a name which sounds more like a video codec than a pos alt coin.  Lips sealed
389  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 23, 2017, 06:25:02 PM
Can't believe i missed the dip below $990 this morning. Cry

Now that would of been epic buy if I was awake that early that is. Embarrassed
It was over before you can say BU who's you daddy? Grin
390  Economy / Exchanges / Re: [PRE-ANN] TIDEX:Bitcoin and Altcoin exchange [Public Testing] on: March 23, 2017, 01:20:24 PM
I heard that the signature has changed, need to re-signature? I have made a lot of posts, and did not get the relevant notice. This week is the second week, and next month, will continue? Many parts of the forum have made some posts. Self feeling is still very good. Hope TIDEX the exchange work smoothly.
THis is for their exchange and should not be pertaining to their signature campaign and how it is managed.
Go there if you want answers on that. But from what I see the red text for bounty is not on their new signautures. Wink so you would need to change it to their revised version if you want to get paid.
Your welcome. Grin
391  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitwala – A Global Blockchain Banking service on: March 23, 2017, 04:11:45 AM
Interesting to see this come up cause was going to go with wirex and their ecoin debit card but if this works better cause of all the things being discussed in their thread i will go with this service. Bitwala has been around longer than they have so have the experience of running into issues they have just encountered with using the bank system causing them all sorts of headaches.
392  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux] on: March 23, 2017, 04:07:36 AM
This an updated version of this Huh
Do you need to know any programming language to get this up and running?
I see some people talking about python and don't know any of that and don't want to have to use any command line interface either.
Just a gui platform to get trading on each of those exchanges mentioned easily and as quickly as possible. Wink

Thank you for any advice on this project.

hello,

which one is the best BTC card wallet to receive withdrawals to a btc card?

what do you mean this thread, btc card withdraw to btc card

if you mean btc debit card same xapo or advcash can withdraw or deposit to youre paypal account you can do it, all bitcoin debit card is accepted youre deposit youre paypal account
I've heard of Advcash but don't know if they are the same or different than the others listed like e-coin and coinzy

What do the ones who have actually have the cards and use them think?
Is it available to all countries the other ones are and the limits about the same?
396  Economy / Speculation / Re: Big ponzi scheme pumps bitcoin. on: March 22, 2017, 05:24:11 PM

397  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will we be warned before a hard fork? on: March 22, 2017, 05:01:30 PM
No. Roll Eyes
You will see it on your btc price ticker when it does. Angry
It will nose dive hard!
Then you will know when it has happened.
Just like when the halving happened last year July. But something will actually happen this time around. Embarrassed
And also have your hard hat on or tin foil cap. Whatever you have on hand. Wink

Semi related to Bitcoin - stay safe people in London:

https://www.rt.com/uk/381771-gunfire-loud-bangs-parliament/

Related to bitcoin, how?

 Huh Huh

World news, global terror, general destabilizing of the "civilized world", etc, tend to have an effect on price
No it is brexit related and soon after that Invernexit http://www.dw.com/en/scotland-to-seek-approval-for-new-independence-vote/a-37916318
then after that Dubexit http://www.dw.com/en/sinn-fein-leader-urges-northern-ireland-referendum-on-uk-exit/a-37922493

The after effect: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/0/how-would-brexit-affect-northern-ireland-and-scotland/

But it all comes down to money. So yes it will effect bitcoin one way or another.
You remember when the UK pound went down last year after brexit talks? That affected the price and I remember it quite clearly.
I lost $180 just on the exchange rate of pounds sterling compared to the USD exchange rate for the BTC I wanted to buy going tits up. Roll Eyes
So everything is interconnected when it comes to money! Whether it be fiat /crypto currency. Undecided
399  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: How to convert PayPal info bitcoin? on: March 22, 2017, 04:43:22 PM
xcoins.io should be easy to buy on (although you need to provide gov ID and selfie), but I wouldn't suggest selling there, as they offer no seller protection. (As a result, I've been scammed for upwards of $500, as PayPal doesn't protect sale of intangible items)

I wouldn't mind you using my reflink if you do decide to try xcoins (-ref links are removed-)

I have heard of them but they charge fees the lenders get for doing those transactions. And as you said it is not available to all countries where none trusted by them reside. I am pretty sure it is in their tos somewhere just the same countries paypal does not allow to have fully verified accounts.
I think they are ecoins which was a bitcoin debit card available last year but rebranded to wirexapp.
Their service is good if you are in US but any other country they are probably going to give you problems with buying on their site using paypal because of the chargeback issues those countries where they are not allowed to validate who they are using their paypal accounts when registering for a xcoins account.

Anyone can verify this information to be accurate and correct.

Update: No ID or verification need it anymore
So how do you deal with the chargeback and disputes which are bound to happen when dealing with paypal for the bitcoin trades? Embarrassed
Unlike alot of services offering to take the risk in taking paypal funds in exchange for bitcoin purchases.
