This is a problem that must be quickly solved, the network has been chaos for days. Medium priority transactions take 5-6 hours to confirm. At least it's an easy thing to solve, the tricky thing is getting acceptance for solution. Decentralization is like this.  Grin

Blockchain cant be decentralized. First of all transaction  Fees should not be altered as medium or low priority can slow down the entire block. A few times high priority transaction takes even 30 mins to confirm. This issue is still unaddressed in bitcoin and need to solve in order to make bitcoins more effective.

Bitcoin would be always number one because no altcoin could able to break even its position now and all altcoin are just following bitcoin and depending on the value of bitcoin and also its the father of all cryptocurrency which will normally comes to our mind that it is on the top for now.

Not all Altcoins are following bitcoins. Few of them have much better algorithm and few have solved the drawbacks of bitcoins like long confirmation time. Few of them are confirmed much quickly than bitcoins. But still no once can replace bitcoin because of its popularity, usage and volume.
7563  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Question; Bitcoin Payment on: January 29, 2017, 06:22:54 AM
Right now I can't think of any site that allows you to pay the normal way then the receiver will receive the payment via bitcoin. You really need to convert your money first to bitcoin before they send it to you. If you want, why don't you accept their payment they you will personally convert their payment to bitcoin?

I think its better to collect payment in whatever form they send. Then you can convert that payment to bitcoins yourself. If you ask them to convert them in bitcoins before giving to you, they will convert and detect maybe further money for conversion and may not give you the exact market rate or maybe even less.
7564  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how to explain bitcoin advantage ?? on: January 29, 2017, 06:10:44 AM
if you want to make faucets, maybe you could try to offer the service to make altcoins faucets for a fair price

there are lots of ICO coins around, I guess there is some demand for such service, but I'm not sure what would be the competition

Altcoins faucets may not be profitable. A better option is to make a bitcoin faucet and give satoshis per claim. This will make the faucet site popular in no time. You can place google Ads on your site to earn from advertisements.

But i have a thinking, i do small bets and many time in sports betting, because in sports if you have skills than you can win, and always do small bet because if you lose, than definitely, you never take tension. 

If you think that sportsbetting need skill and you have the skill, why are you still betting a small amount until today? that just mean you are also not sure about what you are talking about and I know that sportsbetting doesnt really need superiol skill and all you need to do is to make some predictions for the match

It depends on person to person. Sports betting is still a sort of gambling and not everyone can afford to lose big amounts. So those who have less money can invest less in betting and win. I also prefer small bets because i also do not have lot of money to play with.

South Africa just need 85 runs to win the match with plenty of overs remaining,this was a one sided match and Srilanka cannot compete with a strong team like South Africa ,with the retirement of Jayawardane and Sangakkara they are struggling to find a replacement who could challenge the best bowlers in the world.
Srlanka won the match by 8 wickets. it was already expected that South Africa will beat Srilanka, because of the the Strongest T20 batting side. that is a fact that in the absence o fjaywardane and sangakakra the Srinkan team is facing a lot of problems specially in batting side.

Just for your information it was not a T20 but a One day match, as you have said SA wins because of the strongest T20 batting side  Wink
Yes, for the winning SA, it was expected before and SA was always favorite for the one days with SL.
7567  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best site to buy Bitcoins to Deposit for gambling on: January 28, 2017, 03:33:12 PM
I dont like coinbase, as they have low deposit options and high fees, I need an instant deposit option... so i can deposit to a poker site what site you suggest. I deposit anywhere between 500 up to 3000

Why dont you try moneypot. No matter which wallet you use, just transfer money to the moneypot and  through money pot you can transfer coins to any gambling sites which supports Moneypot (a lots of gambling sites supports moneypot). This is far most easiest way if you want do gambling in multiple sites.
7568  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Daily use of bitcoin? on: January 28, 2017, 03:26:01 PM
The daily use of bitcoins to me is to buy online game items and other items in the internet using bitcoins and to buy cellphone load for my mobile and cashing it out to pay bills and for my tuition fee in the univesity and for food ofcourse.

This means you are using bitcoins for everything. This is really good to know. In my country i can only reload my mobile with bitcoins and buy few things on selected stores. I normally convert my earned bitcoins through local bitcoins and then spend the money. Thats more feasible for me.
7569  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buy a car with bitcoin on: January 28, 2017, 03:15:26 PM
Buying a car online in bitcoin, you will need to declare where the money comes from. Also, you will need to make an inspection to ensure the vehicle its worth to buy.
What happen if you are not satisfied with the purchase, you can't make a chargeback!
Buying a car online seems to very risky on my part and as you said we should really look up or check the car first before you tend to buy because we could not really make chargebacks and you will surely regret on your purchase but if you are buying a brand new car then there would be no problem at all.

Even in case of brand new car, shipping may be a problem too, if you are not in the same country. Things such as Cars, homes should be seen first and then bought on spot, rather than online. These things are not suited to buy online as they can cause problems once you physically receive them without checking live before.
7570  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Great way to make Bitcoin! on: January 28, 2017, 02:56:45 PM
there's some a great way to make bitcoin like trading altcoin/bitcoin
Gambling is fast to make btc but it is very risky to lose too.
yes i am agree with u gambling is too risky because its not possible that we will win every time gambling depends on luck and yeah trading is the great way to make bitcoin.

do you think that trading is such an easy way of making money if you do not have any experience and knowledge in trading? to me if a person do not have experience and knowledge about trading and if he do not have trading skill then there is not difference between trading and gambling.

trading  is not easy but it is not as scary as some people try to make it out to be like. it is a hard thing to do and it needs some time and dedication but it is something that anyone can learn with some effort and some work.
and you don't need to make millions with trading if you can make a small profit that is more than enough.

The fundamental of trading is to know how the market is going be in a certain point of time. You buy low and make a profit when you are selling high; you need to have some luck also Wink
But I think in the cryptocurrency world, trading can give an excellent opportunity to make your bitcoin grow.

In the crypto world we have few options only like trading, gambling or investment in cyclers etc and among them i think trading is the safest investment, although it may not be as profitable as gambling. Gambling can make you quick rich but it can also make to empty handed within no time. I will prefer trading for myself to be on safe side.
7571  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][Qtum] UTXO based POS Smart Contract Platform|On Coindesk & Bitcoinmagazine on: January 28, 2017, 11:50:27 AM
The thing that awaited the public is ICO, with good reputation and notifications from various companies like Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent, NASDAQ and more, I believe there are no investors are hesitant to put their money in the Qtum project. I also have set up some BTC to buy Qtum coin.
Yeah i think so, because the dev not just give promise for us. This can be evidenced since some campaign before ICO release, they always deliver what they promised, I like this.
Yes true, commitment is the thing that makes us and all investors are confident about the future of Qtum coin. What Qtum have said and certainly will be realized, the one thing I wait besides the ICO is mining, hoping soon to get the full way of mining Qtum coin.
Confidence can not be bought with anything. So, i hope Qtum dev not make we, who are believed with their project disappointed soon. And Qtum users not run away if something happen so.

Qtum is a trusted project. No doubt about that. and Confidence can be bought by Escrow in case of Crypto Currencies. one more thing which makes this project trusted is that it is initiated by china investors and Chinese are most honest nation currently in the world.
7572  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: January 28, 2017, 04:22:04 AM
Many users now and then that are constantly being told that the best way is to gamble. But first we need to have common sense and a healthy head to such thoughts come to mind. I've never played, and probably never make up my mind on the game.
Oh yah, gambling is recommend most by those gambling developers and even those who won too much on gambling but for me it is not that recommended because there is such as assurance to earn money on that, so for me the best source of bitcoin now is the  trading it is from the choices, because for sure, there is always a profit on that but all you need is the right timing.
7573  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens if the bitcoin developer team breaks down? on: January 26, 2017, 03:33:52 PM
One of the biggest factors that keep Bitcoin alive is the development team behind it. What if this developer team breaks down? Are there any other people who can continue the project in technical terms?
This thing would not happen because bitcoin users support bitcoin itself so why break down will happen if there are many supporters behind the coin? Anyway, bitcoin is now in a long run to tell that it will go down.
7574  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Reason Bitcoin will always be #1 on: January 26, 2017, 03:27:10 PM
If BU is successful at forking it will be not number 1 anymore for sure as BTC would be nothing more than Paypal 2.0, another alt would update SW, LN and stay small block and highly decentralized. Smiley
Considerint the amount of SegWit nodes in comparison to BU, BU never succeed, It can only forks and become another alt. So Bitcoin remains number 1

I am trying to learn as much and as fast as I can in  this forum. What is BU btw? Grin

Bitcoin is number 1 because it's the first and is widely accepted. But it won't be surprising when other alts will rise and even widely used depending on their specializations.

No doubt, altcoins will flourish with the passage of time but they cannot compete with bitcoins. Bitcoins are far more superior and no altcoin can compete with them in terms of usage, volume and price.
7575  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Great way to make Bitcoin! on: January 26, 2017, 03:22:38 PM
Trading cryptocurrencies is a great way but it has its risk and you have to be really careful
if you do not have the skills that will be the same as gambling, it might be better if you did mine, it would be better even if you do not have any skills
Experience is the most important thing in trading. You will start to get these hunches if the altcoin isn't going to be successful or if the dev is going to run away.
I agree with you man. Trading is good way to earn bitcoin and for sure if you are in so much experienced with this I guess you can have it and nailed it in time, so for long term earning I guess mining also recommended of way of earning it, you will not lost your money on it.
7576  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Anywhere good to sell things for Bitcoin yet? on: January 26, 2017, 03:13:44 PM
There is no good as Ebay, Amazon and purse.io so far in my part which makes me feel overwhelmed with the service I do not bother making transaction with these, these websites where good place to buy and sell your items they accepted bitcoin too which is good for us.
7577  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your best investment strategy? on: January 26, 2017, 03:06:39 PM
However, as time went on, people realized that Bitcoin had great chances of success in the long run, especially after solutions such as SegWit and Lightning Network were presented last year.
This year, it is possible that some ICOs and altcoins will be able to make some profit, but it is likely to be something on a smaller scale than in the last few years.
I mostly agree but ICOs/ITOs/DAOs are getting more and more attention, isn't it?
It means that a market will grow and more money to come to invest.
I think you have to be smarter in selecting and choosing coin ICOs/ITOs/DAOs potentially has a high price. because there are many shitcoin, promoted as ICO so that owners get the advantage,
It happens so many times, especially those who really want to invest to some coins and not knowing the roadmap, back ground of the coin, so there are many people that were scammed, so better check it wisely. So for me the best way is to invest is check first all the things that must be check especially when it is new coin. Invest in small amount first.

You better sign up to some other freelance site like other stated xbtfreelance but you must possesses too much skills so they will get you and work for them even you make a personal message they were hard to get then. Then make a good rank here for sure you will have good money if you have good rank and good reputation here.
7579  Economy / Economics / Re: Where can i invest my money? on: January 26, 2017, 02:56:52 PM
I currently have 2mil usd for investment.

I wanna invest it on bitcoin. Where can I invest it?

Please give me all the alternatives

thanks!

also, please look at my first post I plan to build a mining farm: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1764338.msg17619998#msg17619998

Since you are holding big amount of money, then better buy bitcoin now and hold it for long, then for sure time will come your bitcoin will rise in value of dollar, and I guess that is less risk because we can see how is bitcoin growing now.
7580  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Looking to leave Coinbase on: January 25, 2017, 03:54:43 PM
I'm now officially fed up with CoinBase. They rapidly accept my money when Bitcoin price is rising and I purchase, but if BTC has peaked and I need to sell quickly, the app conveniently becomes busy, and cannot process my request to sell.

They're basically forcing me to take losses.

Can anyone recommend a TRUSTED app with an exchange that is quick to process all requests that is also easy to use? I would prefer one in the USA. And one that works on the iPhone.

Thanks.

So you are talking about coinbase with respect to BTC to USD conversion. I do not use this feature. i just use coinbase to send and receive the bitcoins and i think there is no problem with that. But you may suggest me still if i can continue with coinbase ?
