What's the question? Yeah if you buy litecoin at 0.02 and sell at 0.04 you'll have doubled your bitcoin. Who knows (or better yet, cares) what that'll be worth in fiat.

You're thinking about this all wrong. You've come over to a system better than fiat. Why would you go back? If everyone keeps doubling their money and going back to fiat, how would that not give governments even more incentive to print more money?

Ask the mods why your posts where deleted if you didn't get messages about it. Usually it's because you where on massive spam threads that just became redundant and useless.

With the blocksize debate still going on, I doubt poor countries would use bitcoin.

ICOs were out of control. They decided to stop them. I really don't see how this affect anything other then dumb people from throwing eth at shitcoins.

It just goes to show that you shouldn't blindly follow people just because they say something. How do you know if they weren't even credible at all? Even if they were, why did you buy in the first place? If it's a good project it'll catch on. If it's not it's fairly obvious.

So basically the FBI has stolen your funds and good luck getting them back. That's America for you!

2 days ago you should have sold if you weren't in for the long haul. If you wait too long you'll be buying back at 2500-3000.

Buy from a big reputable exchange or buy on localbitcoins. That's the only way to take less risk. In the bitcoin world there is no such thing as no risk.

I use low fees if I'm just putting away some bitcoins into cold storage or transferring to other wallets. By low I mean 100-200 Satoshis/byte, never under 100. They usually confirm within 24h so I suppose I could go lower if I wanted to but waiting weeks seems silly.

I hope this isn't true that it's all an elaborate hoax. Poloniex is huge and this will affect all altcoins.

Yes, even if bitcoins could be a good investment going all in on them would be a bad investment decision for anyone. Diversify to mitigate your risk.

It sounds like you're sending yourself some bitcoins from one address to another, right? At some point they will either be in the new address if you added a few at all or if it was no fee or very low expect them to show back up in the sent address once they're dropped from the mempool.

Winning a physical item will be bad for a lot of of people because they won't want to give out their address online. I know I wouldn't want to. If you go the lottery route, which I'd love to see a successful lottery, I'd suggest you make sure that you have digital prizes as well. A bitcoin or altcoin prize would attract a big audience. Everyone likes money right?

Thanks for sharing. I'll have to check them all out and make an informed decision on which is best for me.

So basically TL:DR, you think it'll be 2500-3500. Meh, that's too high. That's if everything goes perfectly which it is not at the moment. I guess 1800 by the end of 2017 assuming all of the block size issues are finally resolved by someone.

Well that's obviously not accurate because it goes right up to 100% interest at one point. There's only so much statistics can get right, and this is not one of them. There is at least 1 person in Nigeria that is skeptical of bitcoins.

We'll see $1300 next week because bitcoin are still in a bull market despite the flash crash that happened yesterday based solely on the ETF news.

I know what helped me a lot was this article. I'm using tails though not Ubuntu so I can't give specific instructions.

But what you don't realize is the fact that it actually worked and lots of people panic sold so, idk, Bitcoin prices are going back up but I'm sure people got burned.

It's still a good place to pop by and read every now and then but I do agree there's a lot of garbage to dig through. Luckily mining and tech support are beyond the grasp of signature spammers so when you have a technical questions they don't show up trying to explain in broken English why your transaction won't confirm.
