All the best to you. My first thought was well this guy is crazy, but hey, we have to start somewhere. Maybe you will be the crypto-currency kingpin in New York. Like the Silicon Valley but for Bitcoin. Shocked

Re: Open letter/question to Satoshi

Who heard about that Satoshi reveal website? The picture looks like CGI, it definitely doesn't look like a real person. Most likely it's a deepfake and that isn't even a real person. Has anyone found their identity? At least it looks pretty real. Although not real enough to fool everyone.

Re: Thoughts on Bitcoin's Increasing Market Dominance
by
NewBet
on 29/09/2019, 16:38:32 UTC
since the market is crashing, it's only natural that Bitcoin gains more dominance because it's years ahead of any other cryptocurrency and some people trust having their money in it than any altcoin. Bitcoin is much more stable then other coins. Even though it isn't so stable itself, it's just much better overall having your money in Bitcoin then alt coins.

Re: Smile-to-pay - facial payment technology in China
by
NewBet
on 29/09/2019, 16:12:26 UTC
I heard that China has such a advanced facial technology that even their CCTV cameras use it. When you commit a crime in China, a simple crime like jaywalking, the CCTV cameras can see who you are and automatically issue you a fine without any questions asked. They don't even need police officers, it is done automatically with artificial intelligence and facial recognition.

Re: Where To Spen Bitcoins? Full List.

These days we can spend Bitcoins at literally millions of places, both retail and virtual. Of course there are far more places that we can spend online, but actually now there are many different companies that issue cryptocurrency credit cards where buy when you use the credit card at a store, your funds are automatically deducted from your cryptocurrency balance, converted into Fiat and processed on the card. In this sense, anyone can spend cryptocurrency by just having one of these special credit cards.

Re: Software for atomic swaps
by
NewBet
on 29/09/2019, 16:09:18 UTC
they say "send us BTC to our address, then once we receive, we send you LTC"

that is not an atomic swap


When I use the wallet, I just enter the amount I want to swap and it automatically does it. Does that mean it automatically sends to their address without me knowing?

He is saying that they require him to send Bitcoin and that when they receive it they will send the other currency. However, that is not how atomic swaps work. So he's right. Something doesn't add up.

Re: Meet the Wealthiest People in Crypto

We don't even know the wealthiest people in crypto because they do not associate their Bitcoin with who they are. many Bitcoin millionaires have their private keys on paper wallets and we will never find out who they are, as they will sell their Bitcoins for cash. or they will transfer their Bitcoins into an anonymous altcoin so that they cannot be traced.

Re: Simple and undeniable proof that Bitcoin is a scam
by
NewBet
on 29/09/2019, 16:05:54 UTC
I don't think that it's scam  Behind BTC is very strong technology called blockchain.In my opinion bitcoin is proven legit.

Bitcoin is often called a scam or a pyramid by those who did not buy it, for example, for $ 100, and now, watching the current rate, bite their elbows and console themselves with the fact that "all this will collapse soon." Another category of people who consider Bitcoin a scam is those who have a bitter experience in dealing with cryptocurrency fraud. Some guys, due to their lack of education, do not even try to understand what trading is.


Not only is Bitcoin called a scam or a pyramid by those who did not buy it, but also by those who bought it and sold it only for the price to sky rocket to the moon and they couldn't get back in. Also, by those people who don't understand it, who think that it's some random fake digital currency but don't understand the underlying blockchain technology. To be fair, most people aren't experts in it... but we understand the point of it.

I wonder who that might of been  Roll Eyes

How long did that vanity address take to create?  Tongue

Vanity addresses don't take that long to create. Of course the longer they are, the amount of time it takes goes up exponentially... but for a vanity address like that, I think it's 6 digits so it probably doesn't take more than just a few days. It's possible that I could take a few weeks as well. Realistically, a few weeks isn't long to wait for a special vanity address if you think about it.

Re: Bitcoin wallets on older iphones are insecure
by
NewBet
on 29/09/2019, 15:47:21 UTC
Crazy how fast technology moves and advances in our world. The iPhone X was one of the most flagship phones apple ever made, and now your telling me, that after only 2 years of it being out, it can easily get hacked and exploited? That's crazy.

Absolutely! and not only iPhone users but also other brands because mobile wallet isn't that safe like desktop wallet that you can only secure in your house\home.

You are right on the spot bro. Mobile phone wallets can be made by anyone, and there's no guarantee that they are secure or that they don't even have your private Keys. As soon as you deposit some cryptocurrency, since they have your private keys, they could steal everything. You never know who is behind these apps, unless it is a popular one like coinbase... Most of them could be scams. It's better to protect your cryptocurrency, to keep in your own hands, done trusting random apps.

Re: What's going on with BTC?
by
NewBet
on 29/09/2019, 15:45:35 UTC
Bitcoin still profitable and never worried anything about what happen at the future with bitcoin because everything is fine, just keep save your bitcoin and hold it.
- Well, perhaps continuing to trust our choices is the only thing we can do because even if we have concerns about the future and what will happen to bitcoin in the future, we don't know exactly which trends this story will follow, Bitcoin does not provide us with such information, it only provides and represents temporary values in the market and that is constantly changing. And of course, when worrying is futile, I stop worrying and focus on the current trend, where I can make a profit from investing in bitcoin.
Keep yourself busy with things that will be able to provide you decent outcome while you are in your stay inside this market. Bitcoin volatile movements can bring you to a good place to invest and earn money if you will give your best to enhance your skills around this industry.

There's no exact time, it's all about personal instinct and the trust you earned from this venue of investment. Hold those assets and wait for the next blow.

Holding is the best thing that we can do, if we are not experts in the field of trading. Stock market traders may have more tools and understanding of how market works and since they are experts, they can transfer this knowledge to the crypto markets, because they are very similar after all. For those who are regular investors, buying and holding is probably a better option. Although, it really depends on many factors at the end of the day.

Re: What are the dangers inside cryptocurrency investing

The dangers of cryptocurrency investing are that you can invest thousands of dollars one day, and the next day the market crashes and may lose everything. It's impossible to predict the markets so never invest more than you can afford to lose.

Re: Bitcoin mining difficulty hasn't dropped by more than 1% all year!
by

Since 2019 began, mining difficulty has basically been going straight up. No difficulty drop has been larger than 1% this year!

https://www.instagram.com/p/B27UN3eJeu0/

This is a great sign. It's also expected, because we are in a market downturn... And also, Bitcoin dominance has been growing constantly since 2017, and is currently at basically 70%. Considering how many cryptos there are these days, bitcoin's dominance is pretty amazing.

Bitcoin can certainly have fast transactions like xrp. It needs to lightning Network so that we can do off change transactions instantly without worrying will confirmations then all those transactions will be done at a later date in bulk. It takes time to develop the technology, so just we have to be patient.

Good on this guy for taking a risk at such a young age. When we are young, like 18 years old he had nothing to lose so it's a really smart decision that he made. I think if most of us could go back in time, we would buy Bitcoin when we first found out about it. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20.

Bitcoin is still relatively low compared to its high point a couple of years ago, so the Google searches will be less now. But they will be increasing on an everyday basis as more people decide to invest in Bitcoin for the first time, they will have to Google how to buy it, etc.

It is illegal to use taxpayer money to bribe a foreign government to try helping you in an election. Furthermore, it is embarrassing an act of desperation. This act alone is impeachable, and there are many other acts which only fuel the fire. Republicans have no excuse but to work with Democrats to impeach that guy for using taxpayer money to his own personal benefit.

Re: Did we actually really land on moon?

on 28/09/2019, 18:26:08 UTC
I don't know if we landed on the moon or not but there is certainly it's technology today and they're also with the technology at that time to recreate the moon landing video exactly how it looked broadcast on television. using Hollywood studios or government studios, they would have been able to recreate the event with the technology of the day... So we can say for sure if they landed on the moon, unless we were involved in that intelligence operation.
