If every source except the receiver says that the transaction is confirmed, then the problem is with the receiver.
but if you press in on the link i linked to the blockchain page. does everthing look fine? does it look like he should have resived them? and what is thise 14.464 BCH balance You haven't provided enough information. I'm going to assume the following: - You sent BTC to shapeshift, and expected shapeshift to send BCH to qzcxkwwspvrse3n9uaacn5c2389n8zzceqv0nhv50k.
- You have the id of the transaction sending BTC to shapeshift and you see that it has been confirmed
- You know the amount that shapeshift sent to qzcxkwwspvrse3n9uaacn5c2389n8zzceqv0nhv50k.
- The intended receiver of the BCH does not acknowledge receiving the BCH.
If the block explorer shows that a transaction sending the expected amount to qzcxkwwspvrse3n9uaacn5c2389n8zzceqv0nhv50k was confirmed, then it has been received, despite what the receiver may claim. I don't know what the balance of 14.464 means because I don't know anything about where you sent the BCH to. I assume it is an address in the wallet of an exchange or a custodial wallet site because people often get confused about the difference between a wallet and an account (they are not the same thing). |

In order for people to sell their btc is because it becomes unsaleable or falls so much in value. Than this investor could easily purchase all the btc`s in market but even if he does it, if people don`t show interest in btc the demand would be very low by leaving this man with a lot of btc but no volume.
Only a fraction of all the bitcoins that have been issued today are sold in the exchange market. The Bitcoin market is competitive, meaning bitcoin prices will rise or fall depending on demand and supply. Moreover, the new bitcoin will continue to be published in the coming decades. Therefore even the most ambitious buyers will not be able to buy all the bitcoins that are present today. However, this situation does not indicate that the market is not vulnerable to price manipulation; still does not require a lot of money to move the market price up or down, so so far Bitcoin is still classified as a volatile asset. The distribution of bitcoins is very uneven. More than 20% of all bitcoins are on 100 addresses. Here are the detailed statistics, if interested https://bitinfocharts.com/top-100-richest-bitcoin-addresses.htmlYou can't go by addresses. The top addresses hold bitcoins for millions of people. |

How is a centralized cryptocurrency still considered a cryptocurrency ? For my newbie understanding of the blockchain concepts, it should all be decentralized...
I don't think there is a standard definition of a cryptocurrency, but I think that a central feature is the use of cryptographic signatures in order to ensure the integrity of the ledger. This feature is necessary whether the ledger is decentralized or not. |

There are some believes that we might not necessary need fiat currency in trading cryptocurrencies.
My question now is If Fiat is completely irrelevant in the world, and gold do not back crypto, where will cryptocurrency derive it value from?
From its utility, just like everything else. Where does gold derive its value from? it is a unquie useable material, commonly used as money, along with other metals besides having a use in crafting it is culturally and historic a popular money and jewelry materials. encripted information are not. I used Bitcoin to buy plane tickets and a hotel room last week. Bitcoin, like gold, has utility, and it has value as a result. BTW, Bitcoin is not encrypted. |

Nowadays every bitcoin holders got a question on their mind and that is:
"Is bitcoin future bright or dark?"
Simply this question rise up because of bitcoins dramatic price fall.
During bitcoin's dramatic price rise last year, people also asked, "Is bitcoin future bright or dark?" Why should the answer be any different now? I feel that too many people rely too much on short term events to determine the long term future of Bitcoin. |

The account could belong to a blockchain analysis company trying to determine which addresses you control.
Also, since you control both ends of the transaction, there is no need to make an on-chain transaction.

Last I heard there's actually a large class action lawsuit being filed against him with hundreds of Bitcoin users upset at what he's doing and are seeking compensation. Whether anything actually comes out of that, I don't know. But it shows how serious people are about trying to stop Roger's attacks and damaging of Bitcoin itself in his latest attempts to enrich himself.
Last I heard, that lawsuit never materialized and the organizer made an easy 0.39 BTC (which he says he'll try to return). |

As I also wrote in a different thread, this is all very stupid. Vitalik received a stock recruiting email from Google. It is nothing special.
I am not a crypto expert and I have received those emails, too.
Can you please explain more what you mean by this ! Is this something anyone can get ? or something only offered to people that have some requirements ( Which I think it is ) !? if this is the case then what is common between you and Vitalik . They just get a list of engineers from linkedin and send them all emails asking if they might be interested in working at Google. I am an engineer and I'm on linkedin, so I get those emails all the time. Here is his linkedin page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vitalik-buterin-267a7450/There is nothing unusual or remarkable about the email that they sent him or even the fact that they sent him an email. How does this work? They identify people with money and then they approach them to offer Google stocks? I know this kind of
...
By " stock", I meant " boilerplate", " standard", or " fill-in-the-blank". I did not mean shares of a company. |

I'm familiarizing myself with blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
I was wondering if from a technical perspective it would be possible that when a new coin gets mined, it would be possible that it receives random properties that are saved within the coin?
What you are suggesting is possible, but it is probably not feasible or even useful. However, Take a look a cryptokitties. It is similar to what you are suggesting. |

Is http://www.bitcoin.com a valid implementation of the bitcoin protocol? How are they able to use the name? Does anyone know who is behind it?  Bitcoin.com is owned by Roger Ver, who was a very early and very important promoter of Bitcoin. He has recently switched to Bitcoin Cash, which is a variation of Bitcoin. Nobody controls the name "bitcoin", so anyone can use it. |

You remind me of the guy who walks along the street looking for pennies to pick up, and as a result he fails to see the advertisement offering him a well paid job.
That's quotable. |

Greetings all,
I am new to mining and have a few questions. I'm hoping that you fine folks will be able to help me get started with your vast amounts of experience.
1. Hardware - How relevant does hardware stay? If I were to buy 10 Antminer S9i's would they continue to be profitable for years to come or would I need to continue buying new hardware periodically in order to stay relevant in the mining community?
2. Software - Are there any mining software that are any better than any others? Is there a list somewhere of software that can be fully trusted to not hijack my systems? Will I need any specialized software for different sized farms or is there a one-size-fits-all solution?
3. Pools - I have seen many pool lists and reviews seem to vary as far as trust worthiness and results. I would be fine with joining a pool to start with but I am more interested in starting my own pool. Does anyone have any advice for pros and cons with starting your own pool?
4. General Advice - Does anyone have any general advice for a new miner?
1. Your profitability depends on the cost of electricity and the difficulty. You can assume that the difficulty will continue to rise until the S9 no longer makes a profit. How long that takes depends on your cost of electricity -- more like months than years. 2. The choice of software is not a major consideration. 3. In order to start a pool, you must have enough initial hash power to make it worthwhile for people to switch to your pool. I would start out using another pool before you create your own. 4. I assume you know very little about mining, so I recommend that you start small. That way your mistakes will be small mistakes. There are so many issues that affect the feasibility of setting up a mining operation. Make sure you are going to make money before you spend any money. |

Doesn't it matter about Starta? I bought STARTA at .45 and sold it at .82 or .84. that is almost double. This is what I don't understand. Please show me the dotted line.
You didn't trade it for dollars, you traded it for BTC, so the dollar prices (if that's what those are) are irrelevant. |
