There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

I'm going to end this conversation with you at this point.

You're going to completely disappear when Bitcoin hits next ATH. I've seen this a thousand times on this thread.


I'll be here.  I've been "here" since the ATH of $50 and up.

Regardless if Bitcoin is $1 tomorrow or $1,000,000.... I'll be here if I'm alive.   Kiss

What if crypto is Skynet and we all die

Better than spending $40 fucking dollars in fees to send $10 fucking dollars payments Tongue  Cool

Sorry if I sound super bitchy, but these fees are fucking destroying me at the moment.

I know a lot of y'all don't actually use Bitcoin outside of Coinbase, but for those of us that do... we are getting fucking murdered atm.   Angry Lips sealed Cry

Jihan Wu and the malicious miner cartel have you over a barrel and are giving it hard to the merchants ... you guys gotta wise up and realise which enemies you let into your tent. The miners are NOT the merchant's friends in this game you dolts. They are withholding blocks, selectively spamming to the timing of blocks and transaction rates, switching hashpower to their pet speculative coin, all games are afoot now in the name of the mighty profit.

Jihan Wu is gonna gouge as much blood outta this fucker as he can before he disappears and he doesn't give a shit who or what gets burned along the way ... "You want fuck?, fuck your mother!".

If you are pissing and moaning about fees now, what's your business strategy for when the rewards run out and the entire security model of bitcoin is based on fees? ... oh, right, you don't got one cause you'll be long gone and you don't really give a shit about bitcoin in the end either.

If you are so content with bitcoin and you are putting your money into it, then why you whining so much like a little bitch?

Clearly you aren't reading what I'm writing.


I read enough.


If you are so content with bitcoin and you are putting your money into it, then why you whining so much like a little bitch?

Why don't you grow the fuck up and figure out ways that you can work around any issue that you might have than trying to act as if the whole fucking sky is falling.  Get a fucking grip on reality... yeah we all fucking know that fees are high right now, so if we are trying to be practical, then we are not sending a lot of small transaction on the bitcoin blockchain if we can avoid it. and we are attempting to figure out ways that we are not personally bearing those extra costs.

Some of us are actually involved with Bitcoin outside of posting long pointless posts on one thread.

Like what?   Are you just spouting off some nonsense talking point and trying to impress others with the level of your supposed involvement?

Sounds like you are just ready for a central Bitcoin bank that centralizes Bitcoin and have them save the day!!! Great plan... that should work well.

From where are you getting that nonsensical talking point that you are attributing to me?

I think that currently bitcoin is the only fucking threat to banks and governments, and the fact that the various BIG BLOCKER nutjobs had not been successful with their real agenda, to attempt to change bitcoin's governance, caused bitcoin to be less controlled and more decentralized than if any of the BIG blocker attacks had been successful.  So we are living in a relatively strong bitcoin right now that remains resilient and censorship resistant, immutable and secure... Thank you for that.  There continues to be various renegade attacks including the current spamming attacks to attempt to threaten and terrorize into attempting to make bitcoin more changeable .. and I am glad that core and the community recognizes bitcoin's value is not to give into the various ongoing terrorist attacks and shills.

My grip on reality is spot on when it comes to these fees.  

yeah,... whatever... you are looking at some micro-picture.



I deal with this reality multiple times a day when I'm liquidating folks Bitcoin Cash and sending them Bitcoin Core for FreeBitcoins.com... the reality is that BCore has some serious fucking problems right now.


Sounds like your serious fucking problem is called EXAGGERATION!!!!!



I still have three outstanding transactions from a week ago.. so I know.

Holy shit!  Three whole transactions?!?!?! Jesus Christ!  

No wonder you don't care about this shit... if I was a nobody like you with no one actually counting on me to get them paid, I wouldn't be concerned either.


Fuck off with your attempt to act as if you are important.  If you got people to pay, you better fucking figure it out, and maybe if you spent less time in the thread, you might be able to figure something out.



Furthermore, yesterday, I sold about $6k bitcoin to someone who wanted to buy some bitcoin from me.  Actually he wanted to buy $13k, and I told him that I was only going to sell him $5k, but if he wanted to get $6k, I would agree to $6k rather than $5k if he paid me $50 extra for the transaction fee.  He said o.k..... no problem.  He wanted the extra $1k and he did not mind paying the high fee.  

I've also implimented a $200 trading fee for people who wish to purchase Pappy Van Winkle from me using BCore Coin.  

That's the spirit... figure out what is going to work during these times, and maybe you can also call up your buddies Roger, Jihan and Craig and get them to stop spamming the bitcoin network, too.


A day or so earlier the fee was around $20, and a couple days earlier the fee was around $12.  So I am fucking well aware of the increases in the fees, which is frustrating for me, too, but you don't see me whining about it in the same nutjob way as you, because I am figuring out work arounds, and I also understand that there is a bit of a war going on right now and there are malicious players who are attacking the bitcoin network.  I am not sure if either the attacks are going to go away or if there are ways that such spam attacks can be fixed, but I am willing to accept that the new state of bitcoin could possibly be a state in which spam attacks continue to be ongoing which causes higher fees and also causes slower transaction times and also takes away some of the lower cost use cases of bitcoin because the bcash nutjobs and who ever else is engaging in such ongoing and persistent spam attacks continue to believe it is in their interests to continue to attack bitcoin.  So in the end, this spam attack dynamic becomes the new reality of bitcoin, at least for the time being and it could persist for a long time, so we have to figure out ways to deal with it and to prepare ourself for such new situation
Dude you're nutty as a fucking fruitloop... you sit here posting day in and day out personally attacking people who have legit issues.  Legit issues that you yourself acknowlege!  Roll Eyes

You are the fucking fruitloop.  I just gave you some examples in order to acknowledge that we do not disagree about some of the facts, but that does not mean that we agree to your nutty ass conclusions that are attempting to suggest that core needs to do something like increase the block size or whatever other stupid ass big blocker proposal that you want to make in your shilling and whining efforts.


if we don't like it, then we sell our bitcoins, no?  If we think that there are better solutions, then we buy into them, right?  Oh no, instead you want to whine about it, rather than figuring out some work arounds, right?

I'm talking about a problem and working on a way to fix it, but it's tough to fix a problem that the developers in control of are making and/or going to make so much money off.


Developers are not causing this.. even though you want to lie about what the cause is.  The cause is spam attacks that are not initiated by bitcoin core developers.  So stop making shit up.

Hell... your idea of a fix is to centralize Bitcoin and handle the transactions offchain right?  Good thinking fucktard.

You are the fuck job that is complaining, so the burden is on you to suggest solutions.  I did not suggest any solutions besides the need for you to stop your silly ass whining and perhaps take your bullshit somewhere else.  Otherwise, maybe you could write a BIP, or pay someone to write one, since you seem to be so important.  You are the one that has the burden to show the problem and to show the logic and the fix to the problem.  Not me.  I am not the one who came in here whining about bullshit that we already know, and fees and transaction times are going up due to an ongoing and persistent spam issue.

probably you have been too busy sucking the dicks of Roger, Craig, Jihan and some of the other big blockers and bitcoin bashers.

Good luck with all your shit posts and I pray that people can see through "you peoples" shit.

Good riddance.  We were starting to repeat anyhow, and you surely did not have much to contribute, except complaining about something that we already know is occurring, higher fees and slower transaction times dues to a spam attack.  Surely you attributed cause to be something else, but sounded like you were making shit up, and denying the reality of the spam attack.

Wrong.

I paid $165 to send $181 and I'm here to kick cats to blow off steam off over that.

Bitcoin Core wallet gives the same estimate for 2 block fees as 7 day fees  Roll Eyes  I'd imagine this is due to the miner's manipulative spam for profit.

The "faucet" industry is taking a POUNDING right now... FreeBitco.in is having payment troubles because of all of this and Coinpot.co is as well... I'd imagine there is going to be a flood of pissed off little gay faucet users shortly.

Hello Trader,

Heard about bitcoin before but you were skeptical about investing in it?
Bitcoin is now worth $18k.

Imagine your worth if you had invested in it long ago, you could be a millionaire by now.

But it’s not too late. There is still hope for you with other rising
cryptocurrencies like ripple, dash and litecoin.

The old bladder alarm did it again.

No ATH nor buyable dip this time, just reaching $15k again so quickly after yesterday's correction/beartrap.

I hope everybody stocked up at the bargain basement prices.

Might I ask, "who sold at the bottom?"  Grin

No news at all which makes this one interesting. The way I see it we just dipped back to touch the 50MA on the daily - i.e. nothing to see here.

I am paying the standard fees (about $15) and Bitcoin works beautifully. No problem whatsoever.

There is no clear answer yet to scaling. Increasing block size is not a scaling approach. So decentralisation comes with certain costs. We cannot pretend to be smarter than we are right now, so that’s just the situation we are facing now.

Fine if someone forks Bitcoin for bigger blocks. Not fine if someone want to pretend to be the ‘real’ Bitcoin and starts mempool attacks and FUD or liar/deceptive psychology campaigns.

But if Bitcoin cannot survive all this, it was never meant to be.
