Well, we have now to send transactions with a fee $1-$10 otherwise the transaction will never get confirmed
Just telling you, don't waste your time posting a thread on tech problems section
Even now transactions with less than 0.01 BTC will never get confirmed(or it will take longer)
You delvs didn't trough this could happend if the bitcoins went up the market?
Yeah, but good thing that I cashed out my bitcoins earlier haha.
I don't agree with you, transactions are processed normally, i is normal to give priority to the highest fee payers, otherwise they wouldn't pay, and miners are happy because they earn more from these high fee TXs. You are considering the situation from USD point, Bitcoin's price is over 1200$ for now. I always pay 50K Satoshi for all my TXs, if i am in a hurry or i have move a large amount, then i pay around 100k Satoshi, sometimes more, it depends on the size of the TX. What i want to say is that it is useless to complain about the fee, you decide of your fee, if it is forgoten by the nodes, then rebroadcast it, if you are in hurry, ask ViaBTC to push your TX. Consider the situation in a BTC point, and you will see that the actual fees are marginal. |

I can only advise you to learn C family language, because cryptocoins are built on this language, except some of them, and when you feel comftable enough you will see that bitcoin code is easyer to read and understand then when you had a look first time. Now if you want to know if there is a better way to learn bitcoin coding, then, no. It is the only way to learn how to modify and work with bitcoin code, if you find someone talking about bitcoin code he will just use the c family languages to show some tips and tricks because as long as you know what you are reading, it is crystal clear. Some links : https://www.codecademy.comhttps://www.codeschool.comhttp://learntocodewith.me/posts/code-for-free This one is a lost of 45 websites who teaches coding |

Is it down for everyone, or only me?
It seems is back up already. The site is up and working and actually a little bit of down times are in fact important as they fix the issues in these downtime and upgrade some little features. A site without any downtime probably means a dead admin without much interest in his site. That's another reason why Alex and his team are the best ones. Just a question to Alex is there any chance of adding sports betting ? Or some PvP betting ? Really curious  I Agree, especially regarding PVP Pocker, i don't like to play agains bots, it is unfair from me. By the way, what happened with the website ? People said it was down ? And, can we have some updates regarding the new features ? |

Nice website, but you don't have to repeat the API calls, your source accepts requests on javascript, so can you add support for other coins ? like displaying a list of coins ? or check boxes with coin names, with search ability, and then display the info boxes accordingly ? it would be nice a layout like that.

I just wonder why you use an iframe while you can get a simple code to request this data from many APIs, and i had been said that iframes are a source of trouble for websites as it can be exploited. You can request an API this way : $.getJSON("https://min-api.cryptocompare.com/data/price?fsym=ETH&tsyms=BTC,USD,EUR", function(data){
console.log(data);
});
You should note that this API is available using JS querries, but not all of them are. Then you can add some style to a box displaying the price, and put all of this in a code snipet, it will result in a widget available every where, without any iframe. |

Hello and happy to see the project is moving, tell me if you need anything. Is it possible to have a wallet release or something we can play with ?
I would like to for a block explorer, but i don't know it is going to be as it can support multiple blockchains.
For exchanges, i think that it may have a problem as they don't accept closed source project, unless you create your own exchange.

Yeap ... this is the key Thanks again
$polo = new Poloniex("L5knblahblah", "5Xnrblahblah");
$ticker = $polo->returnTicker();
print_r($ticker['BTC_ETH']['lowestAsk']);
Looks like this ticker is real time data. What would interest me is the product of some historical data on a graph plot, like XMRBTC * BTC_USDT to observe the Monero value moving over time. This is tradeable when you can differentiate cheap vs. expensive and if currently following along Bitcoin or against it. Interesting indeed, i would like to see the result when done. https://poloniex.com/public?command=returnChartData¤cyPair=BTC_XMRhttps://poloniex.com/public?command=returnChartData¤cyPair=USDT_BTCDo this : $polo = new Poloniex("L5knblahblah", "5Xnrblahblah");
$XMR = "BTC_XMR",$USDT="USDT_BTC";
$XMRh = $polo->returnCharData($XMR, 1405699200, 9999999999, 14400); // the other values are taken from poloniex api documentation
$USDTh= $polo->returnChartData($USDT, 1405699200, 9999999999, 14400);
$Info = [$XMRh, $USDTh];
echo(json_encode($Info));
You can write this in a info.php page, and then call it with ajax in annother page to read the data from, you could then process them in a highcharts or charts.js object to display the chart. |

The backend is always the worst part, you can make a simple frontend, in a single page, or a even a simple pop-up, but the backend have to be secured with several methods, plus it depends on the way you process the purshase, because there are many ways to do it, you can use an internal escrow who will hold the bitcoins from the platform wallet, and then process them to the buyer on receive event from fiat processor, or you can send funds directly (which is not advised).
What ever you decide to do, i will be long, and difficult especially because of security questions.

What about BTCstream?
Do you have any work in advance or only the idea?
I checked in google BTCstream and i think it is a channel right ? if so, then i don't think it is related to what i though about. You say that Bitcoin Youtube will accept only cryptocurrency.For what?
For paying for advertising or for premium content/accounts?
It will be almost impossible to compete with Youtube and i really doubt that this project might generate enough revenue to cover all the costs.
I`m not a big Youtube fan ,but they dominate and maybe 99% of the bitcoin supporters and promoters use YT to promote bitcoin.
Because i want to be made for bitcoin, how can you promote bitcoin and his sister coins, or altcoins, and any other ecosystem member without dedicating yourself to them ? It is mainly for content creators, we could reward them in bitcoin instead of FIAT. I don't think that premium content is in the mood of "Open Source" or "Free to use". I am not thinking about competing with youtube, see it as a bitcoin revolution, something who will help propagating his usage. Do you have an idea about the possible expences ? Why shall we use youtube ? can't we work on our own ? May I suggest BTC World Discovery Channel
Noted, will add this entry to the poll, if people agress to that. Nice idea, but the issue here is how do you want to monetize the site, taking on site like Youtube requires alot of resource technical and financial resources, all this ads you complain about is the way the platform makes their money.
Well, this is the role of marketers and SEOs, do not think that it is that expencive, the main source of expences are servers for content storage. Personally i am not complaining about youtube ads in the videos, as long as i can skip them after 5 seconds. But maybe there are other ways to monetize without been annoying. Yeah tube power! would you want someone with a username like mine to be part of the team?  There were some tokens already about tube or video sharing such as vidz, are you sure you want to compete those coins? What about BTCstream?
Do you have any work in advance or only the idea?
What about xbtube? As long as you wish to help, you are welcome. Nothing is talking about competition, and i don't think we have the same objectives, there will be no coin creation as she aleready exists, it is bitcoin. i did a google search about xbtube, is it a channel too ? Now i would like people to notice that there will be no ICO in this project, no "pay to access" or any other thing like that, it is an idea, and i want to know if it is possible to have enough supporters to start the project. this is why there is nothing done yet. Kepp in minde that it is benevolent. |

I-Introduction
I forgot my adblocker off yesterday, and my eyes were hurt. Ads everywhere! But ads that don’t support the cryptocurrencies, preferring the FIAT monopoly over the new generation.
One big platform that has kept his eyes closed toward the crypto world is Youtube which is censorship compliant with both the governments and the institutions, and we already know their point of view when it comes to the blockchain.
We say it’s enough of Youtube’s Crypto Ignorance.
Bitcoin Youtube is an open source project, that will emerge to be a Youtube like platform that will accept only cryptocurrency.
We won’t wait any more to be accepted. We’re making our own open-source platform with a priority on promoting Bitcoin and the blockchain as well introducing them to the marketing sector. This is how the cryptos will get one step closer of being an accepted cryptocurrency!
So, I am opening doors to all marketers, developers, financial managers, escrows and others to come and participate in developing this platform.
Remember that the magnitude of the bitcoin invention can be compared with Marko Polo’s banknote discovery. Today we are facing a world where the technology is raised to a level, where everyone can fake banknotes, but no one can fake a bitcoin.
Despite the fact, that bitcoin’s value is higher than gold, his use is still limited.
Thus, is why I believe that we need a platform like Bitcoin-Youtube that will create new opportunities by spreading the word about Bitcoin, therefore improving the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Important to note, 70% of bitcoin is speculation, and youtuber's who creates content about Bitcoin are paid in FIAT, which is an obvious situation. Bitcoin is non-governmental, decentralised, available world-wide.
II- Roadmap:
1- Finding a name: Anyone can propose a name. The propositions will be listed in a poll for approbation.
2- Github repository: In order to start the development, a GitHub repository is mandatory as it is a powerful tool to manage projects, and it offers a great transparency, we could use a bitcoin-like release/issue/commit workflow. Any developer is welcomed.
3- Escrows management: As the project is open source, and it can generate revenues, I suggest to ask for escrows to hold and manage the funds.
4- Preparation for the development phase: As soon as all the conditions are met, we should start the development of the platform and prepare a release, this part shall be discussed further as I know that it may require a lot of resources, and we have to list them all in order to know if we are ready to go further.
III- Conclusion
As I already said, this project is open source and totally free to use. It is a gift to the bitcoin community. The revenues shall be used for the maintenance of the project, if there are benefits made of it then they will be kept by an escrow to fund other projects made for the community. I will personally donate 1 year worth of servers for this project and I will also try to participate to the development with the languages I know: PHP JS HTML CSS, and in the design PS.
I created an IRC channel, i will do my best to be as available as possible. ##bitcoin-youtube

not possible legally to a start with
I am not considering legal issues here, because it depends on which country you want to host your page, and even if it is not possible, you can still do a crypto to crypto page, which is not regulated. |
|
|
|
|
In essence what you want to do is an all in one page with a server to manage the bitcoin transactions, either to buy or sell, but just a question, do you want to make it only crypto to crypto or crypto to FIAT ?
So all in all, the process would be something like that (if you use php) :
1- Create a page (even empty)
2- Setup some variables for identification
3- Setup calls to daemons
4- Use trackers to know who is doing what
5- All your variables and querries must be done using $_POST
6- When you create the page, use this CSS code "display:none" and trigger it to be shown depending on the session informations of each user, like if(isset($_session[...])) or if(isset($_POST[...])) to check for what data are available for the user.
These informations shall set you on track if you are to work with php, i don't personally advise you to use annother language, because it would ask for more time and effort, especially regarding nodejs, unless you are good enough with webserver usage and programing, because all the tutorials you will find are made to show you how to generate several pages using template engines like jade ...
Or you can use some languages like scala which could bring some nice content.
Do not hesitate to use javascript frameworks to handle the page loading, but do not use them to handle critical data, javascript can be easily changed in the console, and use variables or database calls to check for every user data, do not let them send you data, rely on your's only.

Although this new gambling sites but I think have been trusted by many people.
How do you call 3 years old venture as new ? Here is the old topic of bitdice : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=476998.0 There would be no surprises why so many people are trusting bitdice because it is entertaining us for more than 3 years. The new casino 2 version and recent signature campaign makes some people think about bitdice as a new gambling site. But there are with us for long time and more importantly staying as most trusted and providing latest technological improvements for better gambling expediences. I'm sorry I was wrong, I thought BitDice.me is a new gambling sites that release. I started gambling with bitcoin around nearly one year ago but I am still unfamiliar with this site. Perhaps the signature campaign helped introduce this site to a lot of people and now the site is growing. Thank you for telling me, friend As far as I know BitDice has been up since the year 2014 and has been well known for Bitcoin users that time. Also from what I know of this is not the first time that they had a signature campaign in Bitcointalk, as far as I know this is the 2nd time around that they have entered this site to promote theirs. they truly up before and i don't think they where known before since i dont see there promotion that can point out to there site or maybe i miss seen it since im staying on altcoin announcement thread before. but for now they've got impressive updates and it appealed to people and thats the reason why they got A+ feedback and great approach to their players. I remember a while ago when i heard of them the first time, but now there is a big difference, i am sure they will upgrade the system again, there are rooms for many upgrades on several parts of the platform, for example, they are going to add bonus systems for the players, that's great, it makes them even more fair and reliable, and attractable. But i am more thinking about the frontend, it can be more appealing, like changing some background images, adding more gradients to enhance the sections fusing, enhancing the gray low opacity background. Such updates could greatly improve the frontend, nothing too fancy, just some corrections. |

Maybe bitcoin-node or node-bitcoin is what you are looking for, as you can query a bitcoin daemon (ad even blockchain.info RPC api) and then send usual methods or even your own methods. It is compliant with SSL and part of bitcoinjs project i guess.
If all these projects doesn't suits you, could you tell us exactly what you are looking for then ? because i think that we talked about the libraries.

or maybe you found some open source web wallets with built-in API ?
Is there a thing called "Open Source Web Wallets" ? Welp! I need to look that up son! Would really help figure out transparency behind the wallet.Most of the online wallets do provide built in API's but with limited access and cross verification of the tokens.I'd rather write my own API instead of begging them to provide me unlimited requests per minute. there are a lot of open source wallets : - Safe wallet - Insight API (then you have to build the frontend) - PiWallet These are the most used projects, buti am sure you can find more on github. |

the first sticky post in this section is called "All about stuck transactions" or something like that, here is the link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1802212.0You will find different ways to solve your problem, to simplify, you have to resend the transaction for the blockchain to process it when the traffic gets back to a normal state. |

google/nsa/cia/mi6/dgse, none of these are 100% secured, even pentagon isn't, this is why they issued a bounty of 40k$, and they said that a lot of security breaches was found.
Now bitdice is a gambling website, they issued a lot of efforts in the security of the platform, but it has breaches for sure. Now who will be smart enough to find "and" to exploit them.
Well you stated your idea, now you can do and exploit them. Every site really have a vulnerable part which may crumble down, though that why they are enhancing their securities. You don't need to exploit them really, you just need to trust them. by exploit i mean using the break to harm the platform or the users. I won't, because i can't, i am not a professional hacker, i just know some security tricks, and as far as i can see, they are respecting the basic security principles advised by many programers. And this, just a few websites do it. But you can be sure that as soon as find something i will report it, you won't even see it in the forum unless they don't correct it. |

I know how complex it is, and i know how much ressources it consumes, but why other API providers do it without restriction ?
Block.io is a simple API who does the job, now for security considerations i didn't went too much in testing as i never had to use it in a production environment, i just know that it is accessible, easy to use, clear UI. And these are very appreciated qualities.
Other API providers restrict usage of their APIs, and do not offer it for free. Block.io does not do any job, and their API is shit and not free, I used them for a year and it was a pain in the ass to work with them, they use STRIPE to bill their customers even when they pay with bitcoin, what the heck ? I used them in development only, i won't pay for an api, especially when i don't need to use it, it is just that APIs are easy to use, and provides quick deployment. It can be a pain for sure, especially if you need methods they can't provide. Have you switched to annother API ? Moved to Bitgo, but I decided to build my own solutions instead of relying on third parties, even payable ones. I am curious about your build, what did you created ? or maybe you found some open source web wallets with built-in API ? the last i heard of bitgo was something like a year ago, they still exists then. |

You shouldn't change the fees as it is made in order to process the transactions quickly. I recently sent a tx with low fees, it took 4 days to be processed, i had to rebroadcast the transaction as it is forgotezn by memool after 72hours.
You should keep it, or use blockcypher for micropayments.
