I honestly don't know why create another topic on this subject. There are already tons of topics where people talk about the wallets available on the market and which ones are better. Just google "bitcointalk best/desktop/top wallet" or something like that and you will see.
The best "full wallet": Bitcoin Core
The best light wallet: Electrum
A lot of those wallets on your poll are web wallets, so... just don't use them.

I believe it would be good for the price, since there are less Bitcoin being sold in the market. The bad news are, if you don't use your Bitcoin to buy stuff, why would merchants accept Bitcoin as a method of payment if no one wants to spend their Bitcoins? This way, Bitcoin would work more like a digital gold rather than a currency.
Also, your poll doesn't make any sense.
Is hoarding bitcoins good or bad for it's growth?
Yes / No
I believe the options should be "good" or "bad" right?

it's been a month since I requested the withdrawal , their shitty support haven't responded yet probably they are just ignoring me
at this point I think that Poloniex won't pay me also there is no way for me to contact them or get in touch
beware guys !!
Care to share with us how much are you trying to withdraw? I've seen big whales taking their money from Poloniex without any issues, and I myself always withdraw low amounts of BTC close to ~$30 (not worth the scam). So I don't know how much you could be trying to take from the exchange for them not allow you to do so. I know their support sucks but why would they damage their reputation for such low amount of money when they are making tons of cash daily from the trades alone? |

I assume people would just pay $10 more and get their own dev account and be able to upload any amount they want. I would recommend you to lower it for something like $5 per app
+1. Also, you could just hijack someones app and insert malwares/ads if the app became really popular. A real developer would need a full account of his own to update and control their apps, answer reviews and etc. Not that good idea to have someone to upload an app for you and have full control on your product. |

Any evidence to support those claims? Early today I saw some guy complaining about Freewallet and how his friend was unable to access his wallet with "substantial amount of money", so maybe this isn't just a coincidence? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1963748 |

Why wouldn't we buy? At the end of past month, someone posted here a thread saying he bought 1 BTC at $2500 and then a few days later the price droppped to $2000, so he was asking if he should sell of just HODL.
Yesterday we hit the mark of $3000 per Bitcoin. Do you think we didn't knew this price was possible? You can think we are just dreamers when we say that the price will hit 10k, 20k or even 50k in a few years. But the truth is that this is all possible since the beginning of Bitcoin, when the same people doubted that the price could go above $500. People always asked and always will ask if they should buy or it's already too expensive.
Just remember that we are early birds and there is still plenty of ground ahead. I bought more at $2500 and I WILL buy more at $3000. Join me if you want to become rich someday.

$4 for a fee is quiet big but your confirmation must be fast right. Actually you can costume your fee for your transaction, reduce it into $1-2 is already good though, you only need to wait 1-5 hours maximum. The fee for each transaction also because of the bitcoins price that increase so high and also many unconfirmed transacion out there.
You can't say that because you don't know the amount of inputs and outputs his transactions had. At the moment I'm writing this post, if you want your transaction to be confirmed in this short amount of time, you require to pay a fee of 390 satoshis/byte (the cheapest recommended). I've had transactions with more than 3 inputs and 2 outputs that had ~1200 bytes of size and required me to pay ~0.004 ($10) to get confirmed in 1-5 hours. And of course I choose to wait a little bit more and my tx was confirmed the next day  |

It's still possible to have 1 full bitcoin, 3000$ isn't a huge amount, for poor persons too, they just need to save money to have this amount, it can take some time, but they can have that amount, in the future it will be more difficulty.
But I understand what you are saying, some persons don't have interest in bitcoin because they may not have 1 full bitcoin. In this case, these are fool persons that are losing a big opportunity in life to make their money price more.
Do you really think anyone experiencing difficulties and having almost no condition to survive would save $3000 to buy a virtual currency whose value may fall at any time? $3000 IS a huge amount of money, mainly in third world countries where people can't simply afford to stop eating to invest that amount of cash. In Brazil, the minimum wage is equivalent to ~$285 dollars. So without considering all the monthly expenses and bills necessary to live, you would have to save your WHOLE salary for 10 months to buy 1 single Bitcoin. Of course that's the minimum and many people earn an amount above that. But this is just an example for you to understand how much a Bitcoin can be worth nowadays in other countries. |

Between the date choosen of August 1st and November 15th, UASF nodes will consider all blocks invalid that do not explicitly signal support for SegWit, thus creating a fork. Within that fork, support for SegWit will be 100% which in turn triggers the activation threshold of SegWit (95%). So, If the UASF is activated successfully then that's going to happen: 1) nodes running UASF will reject blocks which do not signal for segwit. 2) miners running UASF will reject blocks which do not signal for segwit. All this is an attempt to force the activation of SegWit which is currently (~30%) unable to reach the required activation threshold (95%). Why was the date of August 1, 2017 chosen?"Because BIP9 is time based, BIP148 needs to account for the possibility for some of the hash power to exit (eg. to mine another fork) which would make block intervals longer. The August 1st date allows for the economic majority to successfully activate SegWit. Theoretically, if the hashpower drops by up to 85%, it might take up to 13 weeks to complete an activation period. In this scenario, SegWit will still activate for all BIP148 compliant nodes."Source: http://www.uasf.co/#why-was-the-date-of-august-1-2017-chosen |

I see it 2920$ on preev.com and 2950$ on CoinMarketCap, where is the 3000$? Anyway, I'm a really optimistic person but let's deal with it. It's just a matter of time till It drops again because people are looking for the short term gains and start panic selling, while they could simply wait a few weeks/months to make big, If not huge earnings.
It was for a short amount of time but we got it there. It's just a matter of time until the price goes to $3000 and stays there just like we did with $2500 and $2800. I can even imagine we are going to hit again today or even this week. http://www.coindesk.com/price/ https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/bitfinex/btcusd |

I really doubt on their ability to sell 1 million hardware wallet within 1 year, I think it will be really hard to sell even 1 million hardware in total from all hardware wallet manufacturer within short time of 1 year.  Aren't they talking about 1 million in total of sales this year and not 1 million JUST this year alone? We can't really know how much they already sold so if they believe that much, I think it's possible. The market of cryptocurrencies it's starting to become bigger, so more people are starting to buy hardware wallets, including me. Not a far dream anymore! |

And now Bitcoin just hit $3000. Which means you just profited $500, or 20% of your investment without doing anything! I hope you choose to HODL instead of panicking and selling when the price dropped to $2000. Always remember how Bitcoin works:  |

I agree that this is a issue that should be fixed. But I also agree with some things Jaxx's CTO pointed out about the issue: - Jaxx is a hot wallet suitable for small amounts
- Jaxx IS NOT cold storage. For large amounts we recommend hardware wallets.
- We expect Users to maintain control of their devices, and we strongly encourage the use of on- device security (ie pin, fingerprint, retina, etc.) in order to secure your ENTIRE device. |

Thank you for the response TryNinja! I'm using a KeepKey wallet. Nowhere in the UI do I see the byte size, unless I'm somehow completely missing it =/ There isn't any option for choosing a transaction fee amount (no fast, average, or slow).
I don't know the KeepKey UI so I can't really comment on this. Also, kinda sucks that you don't have full control over your fees. But in this case you could try to use your KeepKey wallet on Electrum. There is an article from the support explaining how to this: https://support.keepkey.com/support/solutions/articles/6000090280-electrum-keepkey-integration-windows-7-8-10-It's not a permanent fix for your issue but you could use to do the "send your BTC with a low fee in for future transactions" I said before. Edit: wrote KeepWeb instead of KeepKey lol |

It really depends on the wallet you are using. For example, I'm using Electrum and I can preview my transactions details before sending my coins, including the size of my transaction.  Which wallet are you using? You can try doing this to calculate your transaction size: https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/1195/how-to-calculate-transaction-size-before-sendingSince you receive a lot of fragmented amounts of Bitcoin weekly, your future transactions will have a lot of inputs, which may cause the size of the transaction to become bigger, thus making you need to pay more on fees. You can try sending your accumulated BTC to another address with a low fee that may take some time to confirm, but will make your new address pay less on fees on future transactions since it will only have 1 big input instead of multiples of 0.016 BTC. |

Quoted from a one of my previous posts: I don't think you will find a exchange with good rates that don't require a ID verification. Most of them follow the called "Know your Customer", and "Anti Money Laundering" (KYC/AML) laws enforced by FINCEN (financial crimes enforcement network) in the US for any businesses that qualifies as a "Money Service Business" or "Money Transmitter". |
