This situation for bitfinex can be a threat for the bitcoin price to go down because many of the bitcoin users will see this is a bad news that can damage ng image of the bitcoin because bitfinex is one of the most well known and one of the biggest exchanger and the blocked deposits will be threat for us.
Well, price is at $1210 right now so I think we can consider the danger to bitcoin's price and it's dropping down below has been eliminated, it wouldn't damage anything other than people leaving that exchange and they no longer collecting their fees and it's not like they're blocking you from withdrawal of BTC, there are other well established exchanging services to do your business nothing to worry.

Seriously there is no way for you to know when to stop because gambling is not a rational/ logical thing it's more impulsive and based on greed and emotions, but if you think first and have plans and strategies like traders and business men and actually keep your wins and losses records you might have a better chance.

Let me explain what I mean, imagine you go to an online casino and bet 10BTC you either win or you lose, if you win then you need to know next time you are playing that whether you are again winning addition to that 10 bitcoins or you are just losing what you won before.
But if you lose then every time you gamble after that you are either winning back what you already lost or just losing further more and just are too stupid to know it and stop throwing your money away, instead of helping other people in their lives maybe you deserve to lose since you have enough money and don't care if you lose at all.

Have you ever tried to donate to charity the same amount you wanted to gamble without expecting anything in return?
Or maybe it works this way for me? because every time I helped someone in need without asking for anything I then have got my hands on 10 times more than what I gave away.

About time, it means they are not going to manipulate outcomes or cheat in any possible way, with this method you will no longer be able to use martingale or any other similar strategy. anyways casinos with house edge still going to be the only winner in the long run.
It's up to players to choose where to play and whatever kind of casino they play sooner or later they'll realize that they're not actually winning but just earning back what they've lost in the past.

Well someone without knowledge about bitcoin shouldn't invest in it in the first place so good excuse for them to defend the newbies.
14% of the hash power they have and how will that help them to switch to BU and hard fork successfully? most importantly don't they know if blockchain splits into 2 different chains then their chain won't be accepted as BTC besides no one will ever trust bitcoin again?
How's that for earning profit and running themselves out of business?
1185  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will get half million dollars prices by 2030 : Blockchain.info CEO on: April 16, 2017, 11:20:55 PM
Then buy these 100BTC at these idiotic and low prices such as $1000-$1200 and forget about crypto after storing them in unused addresses and printing a few paper wallets as back up then go live your life for another 10-15 years and when price reached your goal sell them to have $50M in cash at your disposal, imagine someone with 500K bitcoins could be a billionaire.
1186  Economy / Speculation / Re: effect of Japan on bitcoin price speculation on: April 16, 2017, 10:54:04 PM
Let us assume the whole world adopts the bitcoin system but when we're stuck at 3-5 transactions/s how'd you manage and handle increasing demand?
Let us assume the whole world only does 200 transactions/s and paying $100 as a fee/tx but can miners handle more than 5 transactions/s?
That is the problem with bitcoin no matter how many people invest/ use it the system is limited.
1187  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Big Banks Profit challenged on: April 16, 2017, 10:27:48 PM
As long as dumb people don't get rid of their credit cards, bank will keep making profits. It is a very simple mechanism what keeps banks alive.

First; they give you very low salaries which is enough barely for you to survive.
Second; they bomb you with advertisements of products which you don't absolutely need at all. (Like an Iphone for 500$, A sports car for 100k$, A parfume for 200$ etc, A big house for 500k$)
Third; As a brainwashed moron that you are, you immediately run to the banks and take loans.
Fourth; Gz. You successfully made yourself poor while making banks richer and richer.

As long as this cycle keeps going, banks will do fine.

What is bad for them is to make lesser profits than what they expected, and that's where bitcoin shines. An unexpected story for the bankers. A choice for the smart people.

Smart people don't trust banks. They hate banks. If they were able to, they would put every one of them on fire. They don't put their money on banks. Banks don't like that.  Cool

Shut it you little sperm, banks are not living entities and we all are mo*ons but mo*on sperms Cheesy when it comes to the might of the banks, they're the necessary evil, we need them without them nothing would sustain in financial markets.
Economy would not grow in any country/ ecosystem without banks and central banks, we could see the living evident of what kind of a disaster a decentralized network could become when it comes the time to grow and scale up.
Would you rather to get scammed by anonymous people promising you to give high interest rates on your investment and then run away and you remain helpless with no money back?

We all can see how a decentralized ecosystem can be stuck in stalemate, problem with crypto is when you have enough money then you have enough power and influence then you become what you hate most "banker" central bank but without the obligations which central banks have to their governments.

Bitcoin market is just a sperm swimming in a pool of sperms going for the egg, and guess where are central banks and governments? well mom and dad at your service Cheesy

1189  Economy / Speculation / Re: People selling alts to go back in BTC on: April 16, 2017, 06:38:30 PM
It looks like to me that bitcoin and altcoins (top 5 ) are organs of a same body or better put it this way as their marketcaps are in sync and they share their marketcap like when BTC drops ETH and DASH/ MONERO and others increase as well but recently some whales went on ETH full frenzy simply by changing hands giving their bitcoins in exchange for ETH but then when ETH started to rise the same people now were holding bitcoins panicked and because of FOMO they went back into buying those ETH tokens and got literally manipulated by BTC whales and further in the road some people started to invest their fiat into ETH/ DASH and artificially pumped air into the bubble.

I mean damn these bitcoin whales arer smart eh?
1190  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin's price is so volatile right now! Why should I even hold? on: April 16, 2017, 05:05:53 AM
Go buy USD 10M paper bills and see if you can get $10.2M after 10 days, go buy $10M in gold and see if you can get $10.5M in 2 weeks period.
Can you manufacture money printers then buy ink/ paper/ other ingredients easily and start printing money for yourself?
I don't know what the hell else you'd want more from bitcoin? just buy miners and start mining (printing) money legally and even come here to brag about it or if you'd rather to have privacy you could even use BitMixer to be invisible in the system totally.

Last year hashocean idiots/ scammers ran away when price hit $700+ they thought wow such money much opportunity let's hit the road fellows only if knew we hit $1200+ I bet they're regretting their actions.

You could potentially buy up to $500M in bitcoin and either have $505M after 1 week or have $495M and effectively sell all your coins for $505M I mean in one day, where could you have the potentials of making $5M in matter of just 1 week?
1191  Economy / Exchanges / Re: 16/04/2017 BTC Done.. Dead, Epic Dump 0.06 USD 1 Btc on: April 16, 2017, 04:29:38 AM
I couldn't find how many bitcoins were sold for that price? why wasn't I there at that exact time Cheesy you know it also could be someone trading to himself.
And coinbase is in a hang state right now I think they've been hacked or something? could the hacker dump? but why would they? maybe they could only change inside of the exchange?
1192  Economy / Economics / Re: the great drop in price "What if?" on: April 15, 2017, 02:30:35 PM
More bitcoins and better chances for me to engage further more with mining in large scales, nothing going to change for me in terms of bitcoin's value.

You shall take such wishes to the grave, you'll never see bitcoin's price below $700 ever again no matter what unless of course if a hard fork split attack happens we might experience prices around $400-$600 for year or two.
1193  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: How safe is blockchain online wallet? on: April 15, 2017, 01:49:40 PM
Imagine 500,000 people/ wallets and even if we assume there is 1BTC in each wallet it'd be a large amount of 500,000BTC *minimum $1000=$500M.
So if the above conditions are met you could see the temptation they might face.

Never deposit your coins in web wallets, store them in your own offline controlled addresses and only use online wallets to receive bitcoins and then move them after you received.


I'd like to take advantage of this topic and ask from someone who knows (expert) I want to run Core wallet in my home laptop like a lite wallet/ electrum without the need to download the whole block chain and becoming a full node, please guide me on this matter.
1194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling sites and bitcoin addresses on: April 15, 2017, 01:34:22 PM
Gambling sites give a bitcoin address for every user. Users send btc to these addresses. They can play afterwards.
How do they ensure the security of these servers? The script they wrote could be safe. But a person working in the hosting company can change these bitcoin addresses. Users who are members of the site will send btc to the hosting employee's address.

What kind of security measures are they taking for this?
You are uninformed and confused, employee in hosting company? you think such activities like processing coins between users and casinos happen in the server? they're being generated in safe and secured bitcoin wallets/ clients and every thing is heavily encrypted.
When you see the lock pad in green color in address bar of your browser saying : Secure  | https that means the connection is secured and you are the only one in connection with the site and no one else can manipulate anything.

When it says Not Secure then it's not secure. employee of hosting company lol, you watch Mr.Robot lately?
1195  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: F2Pool: "Segwit will be a disaster." on: April 15, 2017, 01:24:00 PM
Disaster? what do you call 4 hours transactions confirming with 132 sats per byte? I think miners are too much full of themselves thinking bitcoin is magic and they'll always have community's support, I'm telling you most of the people are in it for low fees and fast transactions.
You can't come and tell us to go use altcoins if we want lightning networks/ fast confirmations, no we want bitcoin to be fast, people need a reliable payment processing network which is also decentralized.

When people realize currently in this world everything works in competition, if bitcoin fails to offer competitive utility then people will eventually though slowly seek something better.
1196  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Whats the difference between these two sites -Very similar in names: Mine(r)gate on: April 14, 2017, 08:29:23 PM
Don't use their cloud mining if you are worried about getting scammed but minergate is a pool they also have a miner program which allows you to mine several altcoins.
You could try them out and if were not satisfied you could easily move on. I can't say anything about minegate because haven't tried them but it seems rather unprofessional to choose a name so close to an already existing service.
You could even mine from your browser and smart phone with MinerGate.
1197  Economy / Economics / Re: HSBC Bank Helped Terrorists, Iran, Drug Cartels & Russians Launder Money on: April 14, 2017, 08:20:24 PM
All of them work for US, so called CIA couldn't know of such large amounts of money moving around? who gave US government the rights to wrongfully issue sanctions on a 75M population country targeting food/ home appliances/ medicine merchants?

You see the excuse of Iran will build atomic bomb and will nuke Israel is not within reason because Iran has enough missiles to rain hell on Israel and all the world knows it, I bet you'd say those people right now going from their comfortable homes from Iran voluntary to defend the resting places (holy places) of Islam's prophet's grandchildren in Iraq and Syria fighting ISIS and getting killed is indication of a nation supporting terrorism?

Anyways world powers and big banks are all in it for their own eating and drinking from the same table.

Good thing about bitcoin it's blind and doesn't care who does what as long as they don't double spend Cheesy
1198  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: PayPal needs my Coinizy Card statement for verification on: April 14, 2017, 07:11:11 PM
Well you need to take screen shot from your coinizy card page and provide it to paypal or just give them the code they send along with a small transaction bill usually the code is in this format[2406775] or something like that.
You have access to your coinizy account and client dashboard right?
1199  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Other Alternatives for Earning Bitcoin besides Signature Campaigns? on: April 14, 2017, 06:54:14 AM
The surest means of earning bitcoin is by signature campaign in this forum although it is small, Solving captchas  is time consuming and the pay is small I have try it before the other means is to sell your skills to make money if you don't have any skill It could difficult earning such amount of money except you gamble which can be very risky.
You really did not answer my question. As you can see in the title of my topics is "Besides Signature Campaigns" I hope it is clear to you because I am looking for other alternatives to earn money online, and by money I mean Bitcoin. As of now there is still no clear answers s many of you suggest trading and doing a real job.
Dude this is it, this is the world we're living in, there are no obvious and accessible ways just waiting for you to grab them and then bitcoins coming in your wallet.

All the investing sites are scam/ cloud mining are polite ways of scamming/ PTC/ solve captcha/ faucets are just a waste of time.

If you are desperate you could buy 5 Sr,member accounts and join signature campaigns and post nonsense over and over until you get kicked out or actually spend 12-14 hours a day to do a proper and constructive posting to earn 0.12 up to 0.16 weekly but of course you'd need to have money to buy those accounts.
1200  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin price is recovering! on: April 14, 2017, 06:11:49 AM
Not even looking at the date for OP and then quoting it Cheesy nice, if you guys haven't figured this out then you have a long way ahead of you.
Price shouldn't be that much important unless you're a day trader otherwise you should care about using the bitcoins only to transfer value abroad.

Only miners and day traders are in it for the price fluctuations, many like me are accumulating for years in the future so these prices are nothing important, moreover what's important is the state of the system as a whole, I'm more worried about scaling blockage and the power game being played out by developers and big miners.
