sometimes how some people are easily fooled surprises me!
i mean look at Craig Wright story. he provided absolutely no proof to be Satoshi Nakamoto apart from his own words. and yet there are people who are still calling him as S.N. and the worst part was the big news sites which published his false claims, they are also to blame in my opinion.

so what happened to that user who rolled the 10000 number? was he really that lucky and won the $200 finally (first person to win it?) or was it all a sham.

pinging "snegap" (u=988574) come back and update us buddy.
703  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can we expect "average Joe" to remember passphrases to his Bitcoin? on: May 01, 2017, 09:37:23 AM
backup is the only solution, and it is easy and "average-Joe-friendly", you just keep a copy of your password in one of these many password manager programs or simply write it down on a 100% secure and offline piece of paper.

and with today's HD wallets that give you a seed, you just need to save that seed somewhere on paper and even if you forgot the password or lost the wallet, use the seed (which are simply English or other language words) to recover all the funds.

if by blocchain (blochkcahain) you mean the webwallet called Blockchain.info then it is like other wallets and it won't allow you to send very small "dust" amounts for example 1000-5000 satoshi transactions.

also fee is not a fixed amount like my top comment said (20K satoshi) it will depend on how big your transction is (how many outputs you are spending) so it may be a lot bigger.

how much BTC are you trying to send anyways?
705  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are we makeing up time for the lost years between 2013 and now or pump & D on: May 01, 2017, 09:20:28 AM
it is going to happen, $3k, $5k, $10k prices will come to pass easily and i don't know why some people are still skeptical and have a hard time seeing the growth.
but the question is always about the when and how of it. and my opinion is that we may see a faster rise soon with all the things that are going on these days but don't think we can call it "pump" and it won't be a big rise to $5k
706  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Anyone else HAVE most or maybe ALL of their money in btc/crypto? on: May 01, 2017, 09:07:46 AM
sometimes i get scared about how much of my money is in bitcoin and then start selling a bit of it to balance things out.
i had a plan a couple of months ago to keep my total worth in 50% bitcoina nd 50% fiat but after all these months have passed i am still in about 90% bitcoin and 10% fiat and no matter how much bitcoin i sell these percentages don't change!
707  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who wants these Bitcoin scaling wars to end? on: April 30, 2017, 02:14:18 PM
miners act against their profits for months now. For the rest of us means cheap bitcoins and everyone want this.

$1,316.81 (at time of posting) doesn't seem cheap to me.

if you only see in front you then yeah bitcoin is super expensive but the same answer i gave to you (and people saying bitcoin is not cheap) last year i will give you again: all these prices are super cheap when you compare it with a price in a couple of years.

you guys call bitcoin expensive when it is $200 then it goes to $600 then you still call it expensive then it passes $1000 then the same story.and you will continue saying the same thing in 6 months when price is $1800
708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much have you lost / win on Bitcoin dice ? on: April 30, 2017, 01:29:01 PM
i have always been sticking to free bitcoin's only and made deposits only a handful of times and because of that i have never lost anything but i won some small amounts, mostly from giveaways that i doubled on dice game not the faucet, that never goes anywhere unless you are a cheater and farm them!!!
709  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gemini tops volume stats on: April 30, 2017, 01:13:27 PM
It is a good news. I do see the raise of regulated exchanges is an enroute for convincing SEC to approve bitcoin etf. The prime reason for rejection of bitcoin etf is bitcoin market is still remaining as unregulated (but I believe investors should go for investing into bitcoins with their own responsibility not due to with a reason of regulated market).

I could not understand the stand of SEC, how a regulated system will protect an investor ? Because pumps and dumps are happening even with an registered company's stocks too.

are they really regulated! i didn't know that. it is strange though, because i was expecting a regulated exchange to have a lot more popularity than this, mostly because of a better security and less shady business because of being regulated.

and i think the reason for SEC rejections was partly because of the highly volatile nature of bitcoin, not just being unregulated.
710  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: “One Bitcoin, One House,” Nonsense or Reality? on: April 30, 2017, 12:58:11 PM
I think its not possible to have a house with just 1 Bitcoin, I mean building a house can cost at least 80,000$ not including the lot which means we are expecting 1 Bitcoin to equal that much. I don't think it would reach that high even if Bitcoin becomes a mainstream currency. Having a currency that is worth like that will make the government take action and I don't mean the good way for Bitcoin, it would mean total control of it, to control its price.

maybe, maybe not, for both parts of your comment!
i believe it is a possibility to reach that price. afterall price has gone up 1300% in 8 years and that is 162% rise each year and this rate can increase as a major adoption occurs and you should always consider the limited supply of bitcoin when you talk about the price.
also bitcoin being decentralized, it can always exist and nobody can do anything about it Smiley
711  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is YoBit.net provably fair ? on: April 29, 2017, 06:40:49 AM
Provably fair on crypto currency market? Yes, there is "dice" system and site is in 100% legit - from my experinced.

care to share more information about "your experience" with us too. because i don't see anything indicating their fairness.
did you by any chance get any "seed" for player seed and server seed and then check the hashes in a function to come to this conclusion to call them "fair" or "legit"?
712  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will happen with Bitcoin if it never scales? on: April 29, 2017, 06:22:21 AM
Bitcoin will be adopted by all of people and the most important bitcoin will be considered as currency
many people use bitcoin for payment method because of there are not fees must be paid on every transaction
also there are not debate in all of comunity bitcoin because of block size problem.

your comment does not make any sense at all!
if there is no scaling, and a lot of people adopt bitcoin "as a currency" they can not use it because there is simply no room for their transactions in a block. and the fees will continue to rise exactly because of this so your second statement is also wrong because there is a fee and that fee will continue to rise with more adoption and more competition for a place in a block!
713  Economy / Economics / Re: Indian Economy at all-time high! What you say..? on: April 29, 2017, 05:59:16 AM
how this si related to bitcoin? if their stocks market is doing well i would bet that they would ignore bitcoin, because they ar einvesting there, if the opposite was true, there would be more chance for them to focus on bitcoin

acording to some chart on the web their bitcoin volume(they are investing less on bitcoin now) is also lower than a month ago, i guess they are on stanby with bitcoin at the moment

Indian people still not so much know about bitcoins and no services are accepting bitcoins yet. So people who ever will buy only for investment purpose. If some local services start accepting bitcoins then demand for bitcoins will automatically grow. But as of now, the volume is very less.

majority of people who have any bitcoin are only using it as an investment so there is no difference there between Indian and the rest of the world. and since their trading volume has been rising for over 6 months now i think it is safe to say that their awareness of bitcoin has been growing. there is already a big exchange in India that i have heard of which has a lot of customers. and also there is localbitcoins that has been showing a large volume.
714  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitfinex- bank blocked all their deposits on: April 29, 2017, 05:33:51 AM
..snip..
What do you mean? That all that is going on with Bitfinex is completely like what went on with MtGox? I believe not yet. There was a massive buying that catapulted the price of Bitcoin from a few hundred to over $1000. I hope we see it happen again. Cheesy

if you are talking about the 2013 gox price then it was "catapulted" from less than $200 to above $1100 in nearly 2 months.
and no one likes that to happen again unless you are a fiat fan and want to take your fiat out of bitcoin and give up on bitcoin.

Do not be a plaster saint. We all know that the fiat value of Bitcoin still and will always matter to you, to me and everyone else. Why do you think many people in Bitcoin love to speculate on the price? If you have found a new way to measure Bitcoin's value do not hesitate to tell us.

i don't know what "plaster saint means" Tongue
and i am not talking about "the price" i am talking about "how the price get there". nobody wasnts a fast price rise leading to a bubble and then bubble bursting and price coming down.
we all want bitcoin price to rise up, obviously. but most of all we want it to stay there. that is why we prefer a more stable and slow rise.

someone who wants more fiat and doesn't care about bitcoin price wants the opposite. they want the price to rise up fast so they can cash out and then after the dump buy back in and cash out again with more fiat.
715  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: GAMBLING & TRADING on: April 28, 2017, 02:38:38 AM
my hypothesis about questions like this (which have been asked a million times) is that those who ask it and those who think they are no different have never done any trading in their lives the proper way. because obviously if you go learn trading and look deeper into it and start doing it properly, then you would never ask these questions.

so my answer to anyone who still thinks they are the same is to go learn trading and do it the proper way and come back.
716  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Any decent traders here? on: April 28, 2017, 02:28:30 AM
1. Are there any altcoin traders who actually make money on the long run?
2. How much do you make in a month (in percentage)?
3. What are your strategies, e.g. how do you know an altcoin is worth investing in?
4. Share your secrets, we are all bros here  Cool

1. of course there are! otherwise nobody would have been left trading. someone has to make profit. i am making profit but small amounts since i am no professional and take things slow.

2. nobody will ever answer this, stop asking.

3. i look for news or better call it hype. because altcoins are only pump and dump which means when there is a hype they will get pumped for sure even if it is a little pump. otherwise i am all in bitcoin and enjoying the 150% yearly rise.

4. secrets are called secrets for a reason. Wink

Whats old Kwukduck quacking about these days?
Is he still fighting the good fight?

these are the "price rising" days, these days he is always offline or comes online to find a topic to silently spread some FUD and go away.
wait till bitcoin rise slows down or wait for a price correction and he will show up. and the new FUD is FUD about BU. and i am still waiting for bitcoin price to drop to $50 due to his speculation for years Wink
718  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why illegal stuff such as drugs, weapons etc can buy only through the Darknet ? on: April 28, 2017, 02:12:03 AM
Think about it, individual can open website anonymously with Bitcoin (Domain, and hosting provider) and start selling illegal stuff for Bitcoin.
In the worst case scenario  internet providers will block the website.
Why we see those things just on the Darknet ?

no if you really think about it you will see that it is not a good idea to use a currency that is not anonymous to buy illegal stuff and in real world people use cash to do this instead and trade in a dark alley in a van Smiley
and as far as online goes they use a real anon coin such as Monero to do the trade in Darknet.

with that said, people do all kinds of crazy things. nobody can stop them. there is no why in my opinion. they think it is anonymous, they do it and get caught. and it is not "just" on darknet as i said
719  Economy / Speculation / Re: effect of Japan on bitcoin price speculation on: April 26, 2017, 03:22:35 AM
i think we can say that the current rise is because of Japan, at least partly.
but the more important effect of Japan, which will also affect the price in long term, is the effect they had on other countries. a lot of other countries are now talking about doing a similar thing. Russia for example has finally changed their mind and are taking a more friendly approach towards bitcoin. and with more countries accepting bitcoin and making it officially legal, the price can spike up fast.
720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reason Why Casino Bankrupt? on: April 26, 2017, 03:14:11 AM
there are so many different reasons for each of them. some of them are unknown to us. but many are. it can be different with each of them too. but from what i have seen so far in my years of using bitcoin, is that most of them go bankrupt and then go down because they were offering some weird games that nobody wanted to play or knew how to play them!
i have seen at least a couple of them who thought their game was unique, and it was but in a way that nobody wanted it.
