XRP is not going to be the worlds currency out of the blue like some are selling it, because they work with an open source alternative for the SWIFT. Regardless of if the Japanese banks use it for a test run, SWIFT wont be replaced.

I’M TRYING TO PAY FOR SOMETHING, BUT IT TELLS ME SO SEND PRECISELY AND AMOUNT, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SEND FEES?

What client are you using? If your are using an online web wallet to send, just copy and paste the amount, the fees will be calculated and added automatically.

Manchester United has confirmed that they brought Serbian midhfielder Nemanja Matić into squad. They bought him for £40million.

Jose Mourinho said: "Nemanja is a Manchester United player and a Jose Mourinho player. He represents everything we want in a footballer; loyalty, consistency, ambition, team player.

"I would like to thank him for his desire to join us because without that, it would be impossible to have him here. I am sure our players and supporters will love him. A big welcome to our new number 31."

Ringing endorsement by JM there, it will give the player a lot of confidence and I see him improving United. His he the best player they could have bought? No, but he improves them in the midfield and is better than what they currently have for the DM position. Chelsea's loss unless they sign a good replacement, their squad is thin as it is.

Today is the 31st of July 2017 and the price currently is $2800. It will smash the $3000 barrier this week.

Stating the obvious there , after all the panic sales a few days ago, it seems to be going from strength to strength. Hopefully everything go well and by the end of the week we will be discussing 3/4k usd per bitcoin.

Some coins are so hopeless that if you decide to hodl them long term, you would be sitting on a pile of poo. Most times the best strategy is to cash in as soon as possible.
146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sell or Hold Altcoins prior to BTC fork 1st August???? on: July 31, 2017, 07:07:14 AM
Why sell your altcoins? It is uneccesary in my honest opionion. You have done the important thing by securing your bitcoins in a wallet you have total control over, the rest is inconsequential.   

Selling your coins now at a low price is bad, if the plan all along was to hold long term. If you dont believe in the coins developement and potential, then sell.
147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are? When will you stop and withdrawn? on: July 30, 2017, 03:16:27 PM
Personally I need to win more before I can think about withdrawing. So far my luck is rotten and I lose more than I win. Nontheless, a good gambler understands that winning runs dont last forever. And will always without exceptions set a stop loss, withdraw points and a good stake plan.
148  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens if we die? on: July 30, 2017, 12:51:06 PM
It is a difficult one this, obviously if you die unexpectedly the coins are lost forever. It is also risky giving a copy of ones private keys to a close relative,friend or lawyer. If they are dishonest, they could easily clean you out.
149  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: The lagest Bitcoin mixer is about to stop working on: July 29, 2017, 06:11:15 PM
It sucks that bitmixer has stopped operations, you were the best mixer in the industry. I don't blame you for shutting down, your freedom is more important. I hope to see you involved in other projects assuming the law does not find a way to drag you into their mess.

based on the reviews it seems the guide is not worth the $$

If the OP reduces the price, he may get a few buyers. Based on btcton's review, it is not so much a guide but some business advice for entrepreneurs. People will pay $15 and more if the guide is for a specific method that leads to roi.
151  Economy / Economics / Re: Spend Bitcoin as Fiat from Phone? on: July 29, 2017, 03:05:32 PM
I don't think it is possible, unless the grocery shop in question accepts bitcoin as a payment method. The closest i can think of is converting your coins to FIAT using bitpay, yet your grocery shop must be signed up to bitpay to make it possible.
152  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Safest way to keep bitcoins? on: July 29, 2017, 02:04:25 PM
I recommend cold storage with paper wallets, however I strongly discourage single key paper wallets as it encourages address reuse and forces people to deal with things like changing addresses manually, which can lead to accidental losses.
153  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC or BCC on: July 29, 2017, 12:05:13 PM
bitcoin, bitcoin, bitcoin. I cannot emphasize that enough. It may not be the best coin according to some, but as an investment, it is wayyyyy ahead of every other coin and you cannot go wrong with it.
154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: THE BEST BITCOIN WALLET on: July 28, 2017, 03:33:45 PM
myceleium works great for me and has to be one of the best online wallets out there. The wallet can be a bit complicated for newbie users but it’s still one of the safest and fastest on the market. As an open source software program, it is constantly being upgraded, though it is  primarily a hot wallet, there are some cold storage features for users.
155  Economy / Speculation / Re: Next week, is that the last chance? on: July 28, 2017, 02:17:14 PM
People are wondering, the last week of July is the deciding whether you want to make a big profit, or you'll just miss it. For myself, I intend to sell some of my cryptoss, and hope to get a good entry point, but on the other hand I feel that last week's downtrend is the last one of this month, what do you think?

Interesting perspective, but it cannot be true that this week is the last chance to get a good entry point in buying bitcoins. Always remember that there will be a limited number of coins mined, add to that, lost coins and the price will appreciate for quite some time yet. How far up remains to be seen, but $2800 will only be a small fraction.
156  Economy / Economics / Re: Did AlphaBay bust affect price of bitcoin? on: July 28, 2017, 01:30:08 PM
Yes it did for a while, the bust happened when bitcoin dipped under two thousand dollars. It must have had some effect, nonetheless bitcoin is proving to be resilient against all the recent bad news ala btc-e, alphabay and the likes.
157  Economy / Speculation / Re: Above $3000 before Aug1. on: July 28, 2017, 12:28:42 PM
Could be wrong, however I have a feeling we're going to be getting a head start on the runup past 3K ahead of August. Just based on the resistance to all the recent news/btc-e/mixer/etc and it's still testing the high 2 the closer we get.

Thoughts? And if it does go past 3 (say 3.25+), you think we'll be going straight to 4 in a semi-straight pump? (I kinda do)

Also right now on CMC it's one of the first times I've seen all the alts SO all over the board on the charts - aka NOT following the current BTC run.

You are not wrong, I feel bullish about the price in the next few days (pumped past 4K). Prepare for an unprecedented price spike, followed by a crash that will make a lot of naive investors cry.
158  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC-e.com down ! Police detains the owner . on: July 27, 2017, 05:20:12 PM
Did fbi become crazy these days? They closed alphabay and hansa, not only these one, btc-e also. (probably this as op says but still can't understand, is arrested man owner lf btc-e or bitmixet or both together? Very, very strange facts at the same time).
Directbet, bitmixer, alphabay, btc-e (problems) what the hell is happening? Why are leaders leaving their places? seems bad

Personally I've been expecting the G-men to clean house for years now. Idk about Directbet, but I definitely think the DNM/Bitmixer/BTC-E closures are definitely tied together. As well as SEC now looking into ICO's, this was something I've been waiting for since they declared Bitcoin as taxable property.

The only one that hasn't truly been confirmed yet is Bitmixer, and there's reason to believe Dream market is compromised too. I'd imagine things will come to light about these places soon as well.

I think they did all their investigations over the last 3 years and made sure their arrests all coincided in order to have the maximum effect on the network as a whole. They are simply cleaning house.

I like to think of it as a good thing, it might temporarily drop the price of bitcoin, but long term it means that bitcoin is becoming more mainstream due to the bad actors being weeded out. This leaves only the exchanges/businesses that are regulated and do things on the right side of the law, something that we all should appreciate.




I have the same feelings about dirrectbet, Their sudden closure and refusal to entertain selling the website must have something to do with the authorities. It was very easy laundering money using their service to "gamble"
159  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't Spend Too Much Time Trading? is that true? on: July 27, 2017, 04:23:26 PM
i'm one who spend too much time for trading. I made so many stupid mistakes because of thinking emotionally instead of logically. Cry
what is your opinion?

Most traders don’t want to admit they are wrong, so we ride a bad trade down, making it even worse. Make sure to take breaks, staring at the monitor for hours on end can be detrimental. Always stick to your strategy and learn to take losses.
160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: July 27, 2017, 03:24:21 PM
Madrid-City was on too late for me so I watched the United-Barca match instead. Fairly tedious but summer training matches generally are. Rashford shows that he can play at a high level, Pogba looked good against Barca midfield, DeGea excellent as always.

Rest of United were more or less adequate but they do need someone who can organize their attack, fast breakouts and long balls from the back certainly play to Pogba, Lukaku and Rashford strengths but will only get them so far. Barcelona still seem to believe that they can win with three great players, a couple of other aging good ones, and not much else of note. On any given day is certainly enough but not likely over a league or CL season.
