Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

I've received a transaction that was included in a block in 31 minutes, with a fee of 0.675 sat/Byte ! Is that plausible on its own or did the sender surely have access to a mining pool to do this. The last transaction I made I needed 120 sat/Byte to get it confirmed in a couple of hours (before the dump).

Not sure about sat/Byte, but I've not paid more than 2 pence per transaction in the last 2 weeks

[aesma]

I always pay at least 10 sat/Byte as that's the minimum to be able to accelerate the transaction with ViaBTC transaction accelerator. For most transactions that turns out as a few cents.

Wow. This is the central bank of central banks saying that many central bank operated payment platforms are technologically obsolete.

New cryptocurrencies are emerging almost daily, and many interested parties are wondering whether central banks should issue their own versions. But what might central bank cryptocurrencies (CBCCs) look like and would they be useful?
No they wouldn't, Mr soon-to-be-swallowed-whole-by-bitcoin Bank for International Settlements. Read your own fellow lizards' research, then fuck off and get with the program here http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/today .

An Economic Analysis of the Bitcoin Payment System

Bitcoin is not regulated. It cannot be regulated.

tl;dr they don't work duh

Elwar a question out of curiosity: why don't you consider Mycelium, Electrum, Bitcoin Core etc. as good short term solutions?
I would not suggest to use blockchain.info as a hot wallet.

They are too...I was thinking phone apps. Electrum is probably best as far as security goes.

I only include blockchain.info because of my frustration with breadwallet not allowing you to set your transaction fee. Though I don't use it personally. I used Mycelium but did not like it as a phone app.

$3981 on Stamp, looks like the storm has blown over & we're nearly back to the $4000's. China bull shot has been dissolved.

Let's see if we can break through 4000 without any signs of big resistance or if we will need 2-3 attempts to break it.
Furthermore I still expect some shenanigans by chinese regulators which may trigger another uncertainty and shakeout. Probably not as strong as the recent one, but the market still has the tendency to react extreme emotional.

I would never keep more than a few hundreds $ in crypto on a smartphone. My favorite option is encrypted volumes and files on linux only.
Phones look like some security hazard walking.

Exactly my thought... . Leaving a buy order @ 2700€ open... .

Yep, I use it mainly for spending. Throw a few hundred $ worth on there and throughout the week use it. Refill as needed. Like a regular wallet in your pocket.
