This virus isn't new,it has existed since the early days of bitcoin on the darknet and other hack forums.
Virus or not,it's always a good practice to double check the bitcoin address you're sending coins to.
You can buy off that code from any hack forums,it's sold openly.
Use linux for bitcoin,makes your stuff secure by 80%
Yeah i've once got this shitty virus on my computer almost sending my bitcoin to Unknown adress but now it's already gone in my computer try check it with your Anti Virus/Malware if you have trouble with the antivirus then choose another one. there are lots of them and only some of them are heavy (for whatever reason). for example i remember Norton always being a terrible AV and slowing everything down. you can choose Eset Smart Security. it is good and it is light as a feather. it also has everything you need (AV, Firewall, anti fishing, anti malware,...) and checking my task manager it is only taking up about 70 MB of my ram! I tried a lot with MalwareBytes but the virus gets alive after few minutes of delete.
try one of those rescue disk live CD thingies. you boot up from them and then they scan your PC and clean it |

As you see today,most of the newly released altcoins are just scam coins.Which of the new altcoins do you think are legit and have a solid team support in background?
what is it exactly that you are looking for? is it the solid code, and are you going to use the code for some special purpose? if so say so and move your topic to altcoin board. i am guessing not since you posted in trading board. and if so, you are looking for a wrong thing. if it is profit you want, then look for the most hyped up coin not the best team. altcoins are either good at developing with coding,... and suck at anything related to economy so price will always suck. look at Lisk for this. the coin is decent but nobody hears about it. or they are bad at coding or don't care about it and they are good at economy stuff  so the price is always good, look at ETH for that. the coin is terrible and has lots of bugs but the pumpers are pumping it! |

what OP doesn't realize is that bitcoin is not about having price and be a trading tool to make more money or even an investment. yes we are investing in it because it has a lot of potential. but the first thing that a person with a little brain sees in bitcoin is not the price but all the other things that bitcoin offers and someone who doesn't see them doesn't really understand what a decentralized crypto currency is.
as long as there are nodes running and miners mining and there are peers on the network accepting bitcoin, it will be alive and we (true users) will be using it.

based on my experience anybody who stays in altcoins for too long is a fool, no offense but history has proven that altcoins aren't really something to think of as long term investment.
and on top of that all the facts about them points toward it being a bad idea. facts such as all the bugs and problems, small and fundamental, they have. facts like the manipulations, the scam ICOs and the premines and massive premines. you can't just close your eyes on all of them and make wish to have a successful investment!
that would be childish and the dog eat dog trading market is no place for such behavior.

there is a third option you forgot. "bitcoin prevails as is, as satoshi intended to and as it has been running very smoothly and very successfully for 8 years." it is at the very least an option, a possible one at that. p.s. fun topic though  |

just a couple of things:
- don't add size to your whole topic, it is annoying because it gets unnecessarily big.
- there are two ways to reduce fees:
1. don't reuse addresses to receive a lot of small transactions. try to keep the number of outputs (received transactions) to a minimum. spending 1 output costs about 30K-40K satoshi while spending multiple outputs consts more depending on how many they are.
2. you may already be using this but upgrading to newer wallets will generate new version of private keys (compressed) and that will make your transactions a little smaller.
- use wallets that suggest the appropriate fees such as Electrum or Core
- if you are making a lot of payments, try combining them all into one instead of paying one by one.
- XAPO and Coinbase are third party accounts not bitcoin wallets and they come with their own risks. you can get hacked or they can easily block your account.

apparently that strategy works for these shitcoins, they have no basis to increase their demand other than spamvertising with constant spamming the boards.
we all have to learn to read between the lines as its said.
whenever the altcoin shilling starts that means an altcoin pump has begun and when the shilling goes to the highest levels that means the pumpers are getting desperate and that is a good sign for us to exit their markets by dumping before the pumper shills dump themselves.

As we all are aware that the price of bitcoin is drastically going down so can we called this a trading opportunity.
What i was thinking is all the people who are currently holding bitcoin can convert it to any alt like maybe monero and let the price of bitcoin go more down and then buy when yiu think the price won't grow more.
Disclaimer:
I would recommend only for those people to do who will get some sort of profit by selling their bitcoin if you purchased at a higher then i would recommend you to refrain from doing this.
as you can see by today, bitcoin price always goes up unexpectedly, it means the direction is reversed without any prior notices and you converting bitcoin to an altcoin can end up very badly. with that said, if you can go into trading altcoins by buying those that aren't pumped yet can be very profitable for you but you should remember to dump before the end comes. |

Gold vs Bitcoin 2017
Bitcoin prices have officially outpaced gold prices per ounce for the first time in the currency’s history. With the bitcoin price in 2017 trading above gold prices, you have a day that cryptocurrency lovers have longed for and bullion bulls have long feared. Indeed, the gold vs Bitcoin rivalry (at least in the media’s eyes) is only poised to become more heated as the year goes on. So is Bitcoin the new gold? And what’s next for the Bitcoin value 2017? Should you invest in Bitcoin or gold?
First, let’s dispense with some of the misconceptions between gold vs Bitcoin 2017.
Bitcoin is not yet a true hedge asset. Why not? Because it simply doesn’t have the stability to protect you from extreme fluctuations. Gold, on the other hand, is still far more stable, at least compared to Bitcoin. The volatility of Bitcoin might make it a more prized investment, but in terms of a place to stash your assets in order to protect them from economic downturns or currency value-loss, Bitcoin is not an entirely safe bet.
Unfortunately the virtual currency is very difficult to control. If tomorrow, for some reason the exchange ceases to trade bitcoin what will you do? Gold of course is not the best option, but it can always be sold in any country. For long-term investment is safer to invest in gold and short-term speculation with bitcoin can bring more income, but they are more risky. You choose. i ask you the same thing. what will you do when tomorrow Gold exchanges went down for any reason. with gold you can't take out your investment, it will always remain virtual in their platform and you can't do anything about it unless wait and see what happens if the gold exchange comes back or not. but with bitcoin you can withdraw to your secure cold storage with a click of a button, as fast, cheap and as efficient as possible with highest security. and just FYI, you can sell bitcoin in any country that you can sell gold in. |

good stats, but please add some proper formatting to your post. using bullets may be a good idea, it makes the post easier to read and understand. and about localbitcoins i have to say you could have gained the statistics based on country in order to see which one has spiked, and yes in China the volume coming from LBC has gone up even since PBoC but i am expecting a drop since they are going back to their exchanges. Edit: ah what the heck let me do it for ya (added 1): - Bitcoin has been above four digits for the longest period ever.
- Localbitcoins trading volume have reached $32 millions per week. This may be due to chinese switching to localbitcoins due to strict regulations of PBOC.
- As per google statistics, bitcoin searches have increased in many countries this year,especially in africa and the baltic region.
- Bitcoin ATMs have reached around 1081 ATMs across 56 countries.
- US and Europe share largest share of bitcoin ATMs.
- Bitcoin community is growing upwards with increase in bitcoin wallets,transactions,price and trading volumes.
- Bitcoin progress continues on and on.
- Bitcoin node count has been at its peek around 7000 after a long time

using martingale method is an automatic failure. it is known to be a bad method and with - EV.
you can't change anything about it. yes if it is well though and well planned ahead, this strategy can guarantees a win eventually when the losing streak ends but the problem is that losing streak never ends. it will continue at some point until you are out of money. there are many simulation online that you can find with a fast search, they show that there really isn't any limit to how many times you may lose.

Most of the bot are working like the stop limit feature,
But the bot is not can actually put or change your order every time. Assuming if there are a lot of the orders in every minutes and It will not possible for the bot to put a new price in every second.
May I call this a spam order?
I don't ever hear about that bot. and it looks like there will no a bot like that.
have you ever used a bot or even seen the API documentation of the exchange platform? i am guessing not. what OP needs is a pretty simple (not good) script. you either check the orderbook with 1 sec (or according to the limit) intervals using the REST API and cancel and open a new order on top of it. some exchanges even offer open Sockets where you get the live data and can do it easily and live (again within the limits). to OP, have you checked the suggestions so far, or contacted the creators to ask them if they have such feature, yet? |

i always love seeing the downfall of altcoins just as much as i love seeing the pumps. for the past few days i have been warning people on here and another forum to be careful with alts and don't fall for their lies of more rise. now i laugh at those who didn't listen. so far dash has gone down 0.031 BTC and ETH is following it with slower speed but it is happening. Did I miss something !? no HF ? BU dead !!?
hope it is
BU needed to be alive in order to die! and it never saw the light of day! |

I think, theoretically, at least for now, no. But, one of my friends said to me that he did it with zero fee and transaction got confirmed. Then I asked him how, he could not explain. Probably lied to me. If you don't want to get angry, do not try to send Bitcoin with zero fee.
zero fee transactions are still transactions, and the reason for them not being confirmed is that either miners ignore them or because there are better transactions (meaning more profitable for them because they have more fee) so obviously miners choose those transactions over a 0 fee one. (it is like a competition) but when there are no more transactions to fill a block (meaning the memory pool being nearly empty) the zero fees are also included in a block (miners pick them up too) so your friend may not have lied to you since for the past week mempool have been nearly empty. |

This chart is such a mess guys. Woow  I really wish that we are never going to see such a disturbing month as this one. ETF fake pump trap and dip was just brutal. After that one more recovery trap followed by 2 leggs down. Big whales controlled this month for 100%. Big pump&dump shemes. Bitcoin needs to get more users with smaller amounts of bitcoin to resolve this pump&dump activities. Can someone just force the whales to spread their stash?  where you see disturbing imagery i see golden opportunities, each time better than the last one. when you see a trap i see another chance to buy more cheaper coins. and in the end it means i will end up having more coins in my stash than i was supposed to have. and this is not pump and dump it is called a shakeout. you frighten the weak hands and take their bitcoin candy from their hands |

interesting speculation although that is only one exchange platform though. (i honestly can't remember if BTCChina was the biggest, i always thought OKCoin was the biggest) anyways i can see CNY markets are still active. markets such as OKCoin.cn and BTCC and Huobi each having 5-6 mill $ currently. |

i say there is only one key strategy to becoming a millionaire with bitcoin and that is a very simple one:
step one: buy bitcoin as much as you can.
step two: move these coins to a secure cold storage and make enough proper backups.
step three: close bitcointalk, reddit and any other bitcoin related place where random people can register and anonymously spread bullshit.
step four: your mind is now at peace.
step five: in at least a year check price and thank me.
