I hope it drops to 0, I'll be buying all the way down if so! I've been buying ltc for awhile now and I have no plans to stop.

Its odd to me that its more difficult to buy Bitcoin in EU than US. In my (limited) experience it always seemed that EU was much more relaxed with a lot of law and regulation in comparison to the US.
It's a uniquely UK thing and all to do with the flat refusal of any UK bank to deal with Bitcoin companies. If we used the Euro it would be a piece of piss. SEPA transfers can go anywhere in Europe and arrive pretty much the same day. In mainland Europe there are lots of excellent options. We're stuck on this rainy island like a lonely turd at sunset with nowhere to rapidly throw our money unless you want to pay a painful premium to a private seller. Ah, that makes more sense then. I didnt realize it was just the UK that had issues. |

Much depends on what country you're in. It unquestionably is a different deal for Americans now. Speaking as a Brit pretty much nothing has changed.
Localbitcoins sellers seem to be way, way more anal than they were in late 2013. A couple of other well rated buying services are dead. There's Coinbase here but you have to wire money to Europe to use it, same goes for Coinfloor and a couple of other places. Bitstamp and Kraken existed back then too and by the time you've waited for verification and your transfer to Europe well over a week will have passed.
It's far from the end of the world but here at least most people are going to take a little look around, think 'fuck it, too much hassle' and forget about the whole thing.

you need to look for ASICs. CPU/GPU/Server mining of Bitcoin is dead. Search for things like S7, S5, etc. These are specialized mining machines that can and do only one thing - mine SHA256 coins.

I looked but came up short. Are there any bars or other food places in Pittsburgh that accept bitcoin? I thought there were a few but I can't find any. I'm going there this weekend and would like to spend some satoshi.

So everyone knows the story of the 10,000 BTC pizza a few years ago, lots of threads on it, yada yada yada... I saw a thread today and had a thought. I looked back and realized that the "10,000 Bitcoin pizza" was bought from Papa Johns (I know the bitcoin wasnt actually spent at Papa Johns). My thought was what if Papa Johns used this in marketing and started accepting Bitcoin. That would be so great! They are a large well known company thats spread all across the US. It would provide legitimacy, expose a larger number of people to it and would allow people to use bitcoin in the real world rather than just online. They could market as the first ever bitcoin transaction and/or tie in something about how much those 10,000BTC would be worth (as if it were invested). I wanted to suggest this but their website says they only accept suggestions from internal. http://www.papajohns.com/customer-service/Does anyone know someone who owns/works at a Papa Johns and could sell them on the idea? Thoughts? |

Yup, yep, yippers, Yelpers, You can filter your search with "accepts bitcoin" on Yelp now. Yay! What is your meaning that yelp accept bitcoin now? As i know yelp is place which to give rating for markets such as restaurant, store, etc. Read the OP again. Yelp doesnt accept BTC but it allows you to sort those businesses, stores, by "accepts bitcoin". pretty cool. |

This fits perfectly into their business model. They arnt building mining devices, they are building devices that (also) mine. They were the ones who wanted to create basic home devices (toaster, router, etc) that have a mining chip built in. Will these devices make the owners rich? no but thats not the point. The point is distributed hashing. If they can sell one device, to every home in america and this device only uses 30 watts more power than without the mining chip, the home user will not notice the extra cost in power. That ~100Gh/s miner times every home in america equals a massive amount of distributed hashing that people could be "donating" to the network.
Granted, everyone in America wont be buying this specific computer but its a start. This is pushed towards the devs who can/will create a network to allow/accept Bitcoins to flow more easily. Whatever these will endup being designed to do, mining will be a secondary job as will being a full node.
Everyone is getting wrapped up over the mining chip and shouldnt be. Yeah, its more expensive than I expected and if I bought it Id only use it to mine and be a full node. Im not a dev at all so that function of it (Its primary function) is useless to me so I wont be buying it.

"Maria" 5.0?
Bytecoin?
Really??
Jesus. Bugger off.
Someone else gets it. I think you're being trolled guys. Maria was the creator of the original Bytecoin. |

Never been a doge fan, it can die along with 95% of the other crapcoins.
I will say, however, I wish the doge community would put their effort into a worthwhile coin. The community is great I just don't see why they follow that coin.

I buy a set amount every time I get a paycheck. Does not matter where ever the market is otherwise I end up over thinking it and end up not buying at all. Rather pull the trigger and hope for the best, I'm long on bitcoin anyways.
I do exactly the same. It might be a huge buy order but I buy weekly. Buying regularly in small quantities is always a very good strategy but some times need to watch out the trend and should make profit out of that otherwise when you need it you may not get so much profit. This is like a month old now but meh... Im not buying to turn a profit, Im buying because I believe in the technology. Im not holding bitcoins until they are XX price and can cash them in, Im holding until I can buy what I want with them directly. |

Ive never done that but I did realize I was dreaming once. As in, while asleep dreaming I realized it was all a dream and for a few seconds I could control my dream, it was the greatest thing ever until I woke myself with excitement!
I have had times years ago where I couldnt tell the difference between dreams and reality. Drugs were involved, pretty scary stuff, I gave them up at that point. I dont even get real drunk often anymore.

I understand the bigger block thing, was just curious how it would be counted. That being said, the stress comes from people "picking apart" the 53,000 transactions (via coin control) trying to piece together enough to be worthwhile as well as stay under the current block size limit. Is that correct?
I do need to read up on inputs/outputs. I never dedicated enough time to fully understanding it.
thanks for the info
That's the people that have medium knowledge (including me, while testing). Basically a transaction via Core (I'm not even going to talk about "lite" clients such as Electrum) could not automatically be created. It usually results with a error. So to avoid this one can manually use coin control, however this is very inefficient. There are people running bots and various scripts with bitcoind that should make this much faster. You are correct. However, if you have 1000 people that make one 0.0001 BTC transaction each (total 0.1 BTC), this is going to count as 1000 transactions. The total number of inputs would remain the same (if we assume that they are all the same on those addresses). Great, I understand. Thank you!  I'll readup on in/outputs now and try to wrap my head around fully. |
