1421  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Forks are highly important on: March 13, 2017, 08:35:05 PM
Create 2 different addresses and put them up one for SW and one for BU, if Satoshi sends 0.01 to any of the addresses using bitcoins mined in first 10K blocks for everyone to see and then decide which side they want to be or if not then it means either he is dead or doesn't give a da*n about bitcoin and it's future along with the community.
So I'd like to propose a hard fork where Satoshi's coins are no longer valid and excluded from blockchain, which one is it? you either care enough to step in for the continues success of bitcoin or you are dead, in any scenario no use for almost a million coin sitting idle eating dust.

Who's gonna be the Robbin Hood of crypto and does what I suggested?

In reality there was a time when I used to gamble in order to earn a daily profit and I was successful for some periods of times but then I started to ride the loss train until I had enough and stopped Cheesy for some reasons there is no fun in gambling it's either win or lose however if you are in the winner side you could enjoy the game but if in other side which the majority of gamblers are it's just a bad feeling.
1423  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: did you place all your funds into bitcoin? on: March 13, 2017, 02:14:48 PM
I did and I am actively doing so, you can't expect a great return/profit if you're not willing to risk everything, only people with a high capacity for taking big risks are the real winners. do you think a well established cryptocurrency the one and only true decentralized one(bitcoin) just reached the $20B marketcap over night? or it can lose the $20B over night as well?
If you don't risk it you won't get a biscuit Cheesy
1424  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-03-13]Bitcoin Unlimited Reaches Almost 40% on: March 13, 2017, 01:46:42 PM
Once again I'll repeat myself, if you think BU is a good solution then run as your pool node.
If you think Core/SW/LN are the good ones, then run Core as your pool node and support signaling activation of SW.
If you think BU has hidden agenda then try to find it and take advantage of whatever they're taking advantage of by having the most hashpower.
If you think SW/Core has hidden agendas, then join them and have whatever they're going to have.
If after BU wins the race you will no longer be able to have access to whatever all other BU users have access to, then discard anything BU related.
If after SW activation you will no longer have access to whatever the features SW users have access to, like for example; you won't be able to run a specific service freely and without the need of an agency/organization approval and you are basically limited and only able to conduct business if a central authority permits you to do so, then refuse to support SW.

You say BU is gonna have some sort of upper hand if achieves the majority consensus? then you'll be able to have the same upper hand if you just adopt whatever the majority agreed upon.

Only start bi*ching around if after of approval of any proposals you'll effectively hit a limit wall while others not.
If people are eating tomato, then start eating tomato, only issue here is whether you are eating the same tomato as everyone else is eating or not:D

I know that was very intense Cheesy
1425  Economy / Speculation / Re: Using Google Trends to detect Bitcoin price bubbles on: March 13, 2017, 11:39:12 AM
Google a multi-billion dollar giant company provides very interesting services and applications and one of such services is google trends where it analysis and processes the information were asked of google search engine and other apps containing some specific keywords in some periods of times by people from different countries and can only be used as just one of the reliable and trustworthy sources of said information.
but with bitcoin having many darknet users, users of other search engines and service providers yet what google is providing is just tip of the iceberg.
1426  Economy / Currency exchange / Re: e-Currency and Bitcoin online exchanger PayBis on: March 13, 2017, 11:00:07 AM
I can sell 1 bitcoin for $1160 to receive in paypal you're taking $58 dollars as commission. if I deposit $1200 with credit card I can only receive 0.8656BTC and the rest is gone with the extremely high fees. depositing with walmart gift card if amount is $1200 then I only receive 0.73077BTC and you can send me paypal but I can't in fact buy bitcoin using my paypal and as stated that you'll do that manually and only with trusted members then please be a trusted member first yourself so that I could accept paypal from you.

Just the fees and commissions are an alarming signs, TOS of paypal is against using bitcoin transactions as currency trade another alarming sign.
My incentive to use your services please, what would it be?
1427  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: ANN - *VGINA* - No ICO, 100% Stake - POW/POS - Launched NOW !!!!!!! on: March 13, 2017, 03:15:37 AM
Shouldn't the mining retarget be at 9 months? what happens if no one willing to buy my vginas? how can I engage with vgina community without people mistaking which vgina is mine and which are theirs?
There is also the problem where some people blowing themselves up to get some vginas in afterlife, is this vgina also inter-dimensional as well?
Are these vginas measurable by sizes and what about fees? what if some one tries and take all vginas for themselves? can they control my vgina?
Isn't vgina undervalued a little?
1428  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: ETF Rejected on: March 13, 2017, 02:54:11 AM
Where are you guys waiting for $200 or $500? is bitcoin supposed to be in hands of peers and transferred by peers or by ETF approved companies?
Another well performed tactic from bitcoin and yet another proof of it being manipulation/speculation free.
1429  Economy / Services / Re: Do not miss the opportunity of Employing 1-3 representatives in every country on: March 13, 2017, 01:13:40 AM
Exchanging services I assume? with a name "toanymoney" there is no polite way of saying this but wtf do you expect from people to just come and send their resume after you just created your account and as it seems your company few minutes ago?
No sane person tries to represent a newly created service or not even a launched project. there is a professional style of doing these sorts of businesses and you my newbie friend know nothing about being a professional.
First you need to have a show case for people to see what it is you are providing and what is the differences between you and other competitors in your line of work and after any demand for your services and feeling the need to expand you'll start to think about representatives/branches.
1430  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin on its way to $1,300 on: March 13, 2017, 01:00:45 AM
As I have always said bitcoin has strong and real community picking up any dumps, the system works like this: if you are a fat person you will gain more weigh as days going by and you'll never lose say 10 pounds over night as everything has a natural process, with bitcoin somehow is similar if you ever noticed, price never drops or jumps much suddenly across all the exchanges whenever it drops there are people with actual balls to buy it back up. if we could maintain this healthy relationship and let it occur naturally I'm sure we can push the price $40 up every week.
1431  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of the paper money on: March 12, 2017, 08:47:37 PM
The fact that paper money isn't really an evil thing however if governments around the world try to manipulate our lives using them. I heard some where that the cost of printing and delivering maintaining/securing/insurances of paper bills is roughly 20% of their total worth combined.
You can't deny the fact that people need fiat but the question is do we really need the paper money?
In my country the telecommunication company was able to save almost $11M in a year because of a few million people decided to receive their bills electronically rather having them mailed at their door steps using normal paper.
Now imagine the magnitude of a worldwide opt-in of people to do their daily businesses using digital money and trust me when they do they'll start to be familiarized with digital/virtual world and could understand the importance of a decentralized digital currency more easily.
Paper money was invented when there was no better solutions or no computers were invented yet and I don't know when are we going to migrate and start adapting to the new technologies?
I'm afraid that older generations may never submit to the new world order of digital era but fortunately our generation and the next ones will be more open minded to new ideas.
1432  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-03-12] Bitcoin’s Market Cap Percentage Continues To Shrink Due To Mounting on: March 12, 2017, 08:27:53 PM
If you have noticed this already or not but only doge coin went down in satoshi price as bitcoin was rising and maintained fiat value give or take.
Other alts started to rise contrary to the bitcoin price, of course if people think oh lets buy that coin it's going up and then seeing it really went up they start to buy more up to a point where those long term holders run out of their stashes and there is no more coins to buy and then they will turn to mining those coins or staking them which it will result in the same way as before, weak networks, no use cases, no passionate community and BOOM faces turn to sad mood and dumps start without anyone to pick them back on like bitcoin.
We really pick the dumped bitcoins every time.
1433  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and Fraud on: March 12, 2017, 07:50:07 PM
Bitcoin as a currency? agreed.
Bitcoin as a store of value? agreed.
Bitcoin as a digital gold? agreed.
Bitcoin is exchangeable to fiat currency? yes.
Bitcoin is accepted in exchanging services worldwide? yes.
You should really use whatever is more convenient and easy for you which is to exchange bitcoin into fiat then use credit cards for your daily needs.
Even developers are trying to change bitcoin into a massively used worldwide cryptocurrency but with the current protocols it's impossible.
Once again if you feel you are losing money or not having the charge back advantage then turn your bitcoins into currencies where their processors accept and do chargebacks.
1434  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does every casino ask for documents? Wtf? on: March 12, 2017, 06:39:04 PM
You should avoid using any casinos asking for personal information and screenshots of your ID/passport use a bitcoin casino instead.
If bitcoin casinos asked you for identification after you won bitcoin and tried to withdrawal then try to take out in small amounts if they are denying you and limiting the withdrawal amount.
And of course when you go to a land casino if you're under aged you can not enter and gamble, if a casino is regulated by law then you should check their regulators to see if they are conducting under a specific country's laws or not and see if you can be prosecuted in your jurisdiction or not.
1435  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: First BitCoin Wallet - CoinBase on: March 12, 2017, 01:00:31 PM
Speaking of first bitcoin wallet, does anyone know how did Satoshi created his addresses? on topic, if you want to know which wallet is the best try to chose the one that is providing you being just a wallet and nothing more meaning they are doing everything maintaining the wallet and not distracted by their other services. if you don't have access to your private keys then it's not a wallet but a service controlling your coins and might even work with them like banks do with your fiat when you deposit.
1436  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to know if a gambling site is a scam or not? on: March 12, 2017, 05:59:38 AM
The reason I always like to test any new casino with their bonuses is the same as to determine if they're scammers or not rather risking my own coins. but if you want to deposit fiat and then withdraw bitcoins then better do that with trusted exchanges and if a casino lets you to deposit fiat without first verifying your identity then it's a scam or any exchanges for that matter. legitimate casinos have their own threads in gambling section and reading a few pages+their admin's trust feed back is helpful as well.
1437  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Are Bitcoin mixing sevices safe? on: March 12, 2017, 05:48:25 AM
So you're worried about these tainted coins that might be sent to you due to the mixing process eh? That's not how it works afaik. Mixing services already has their own reserve coins in their arsenal ready to be sent to the user if in case the user of the service decided to mix their coins. As simple as that, no need to worry about receiving tainted coins since mixing services got you covered and they already figured that out before you made the question into your head.

The thing about mixing is that technically, it should be considered to be an objective fact that the coins were mixed well or not... but in all reality it comes down to the fact that it's actually very subjective.

The mere fact that with bitcoin it is technically possible for people to see that coins came from wallet A to wallet B presents a massive problem, whether you want to see it that way or not.  Coinbase, or any other exchange, are technically able to shut down your account on the mere assumption that you received coins from a wallet they deem as "sketchy"... that is a major problem in the fundamentals of bitcoin, or any decentralized currency system.  Blockchain analysis will only get worse as time goes by, and if we rely on centralized sources as exchange sites, then we will see major issues with the on/off ramp to bitcoin<->fiat.  Having/holding bitcoin as a store of wealth out of the fiat system is one thing, but to say that it can be used as a fungible currency is nonsense.
Sorry but your logic is down with cold or something Cheesy if you feel they can shut down your wallet because of sketchy activities then don't use their services and stop blaming bitcoin.
On topic now, what happens if I get some coins and then someone comes at my door and shoots me in the head thinking that I was the one involved in a theft or any other imaginary criminal activity?
you are probably receiving some newly generated coins because mixers like BitMixer.io are constantly renewing their reserves, yes you'll no longer find any 2 years old bitcoin in their reserve since they are not idle with their coins you know I believe they are very active trading and manipulating inputs and outputs to completely wash their vault clean.
1438  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin to be international currency on: March 12, 2017, 05:27:16 AM
Do you have cash as your national currency and only 1 or 2 countries will accept it? or you have dollars and any country on earth will accept it but question is: can you put $100M cash in a few briefcases and carry them around any where you go?
Do you know the trouble and the hassle when you trying to open a bank account in order to have access to your funds online and offline anywhere and at any time?
It is literally the easiest way of banking with bitcoin not only you can trade it worldwide but you need nothing other than keeping your private keys safe.
Bitcoin has everything sorted out just we need to grab the opportunity, if you could show me one similar currency like BTC I'll start supporting it.
1439  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bull run is over. Welcome to the consolidation period. on: March 12, 2017, 02:48:38 AM
Today's key word is consolidation Cheesy if you haven't figured it out yet then you are not fit for this community. we all know that news from trusted sources have great impact on bitcoin's price and we all gladly take advantage over drops and rises.
Bitcoin has always acted as a natural event when nature always balances things out bitcoin will always correct it's course and eliminates any artificial manipulations.
Only prices under $900 would be alarming.
1440  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2017-03-12]Using an Altcoin to Save a Few Cents May Not Be Worth It on: March 12, 2017, 02:36:34 AM
Whether you are going to exchange bitcoin into other coins or not? that alone requires doing transaction in bitcoin, so if you are going to do that why would you exchange them at all? just do the transaction.
When people talk about using alternatives they talk about full migration, starting to mine alts, store them, trade and exchange them entirely without using bitcoin's blockchain at all.
Of course using alts to save even a few bucks is not worth it.
