Re: ⚛️ [ANN] Bitcoin Atom - Fork 1:1 of Bitcoin - Atomic Swap Powered ⚛️

It looks like this coin is not even trading on any exchanges now.    On Coinmarketcap page, it says "Exrates" but you go to that exchange and there is not even a BCA/BTC pair.  It is just BCA/USD.   And not sure who is going to trust Exrates with USD.   

It's weird how Coinami wallet supports this coin, but it's pretty much dead.  I guess BCA developers paid Coinami to add it.  I don't know, but it is disappointing.

I have some BTC addresses that had a balance on the fork date, yet I check them in the Bitcoin Private Explorer at:

https://explorer.btcprivate.org/

And it says "No Matching Records Found!"

Is anyone else having this issue and what is going on there.  Thank you.

What a moron he is.  He goes out of his way to manipulate the price and then makes some statement about how XMR is not for "pumping"?   It has to be some kind of insider deal where he essentially bought and then pumped the price higher himself and sold/shorted with his "announcement".  Either that or he is just a pure idiot, plain and simple.

POTcoin started to run in anticipation of Nov 8 elections and legalization votes

Look for POTcoin to surge in price in a few days when the USA has elections:

http://www.businessinsider.com/marijuana-states-legalize-weed-2016-10

5 states may legalize recreational marijuana use this year — here's what we know

Nearly half of the US has already legalized marijuana for either medical or recreational use. This November, nine states could continue the trend.

Of those nine states, five have ballot initiatives that could result in legal recreational use. Most significantly, California could legalize recreational use — thus making the entire West Coast a legal enclave for recreational cannabis.

All the initiatives below will be voted on this November, alongside the presidential election.

The five states are:

Massachusetts
Maine
Arizona
California
Nevada

If it even only passed in CA, there will be a lot of press attention and stories about it.  And opens up more markets for POTcoin of course. So might be a good time to buy some Potcoin before the election and ride it up next week for some easy profits.

Check out the price action on Poloniex.  Up 20% today, and still 4 days before USA election.  Looks like another mega pump in the making.

EDIT..up 30% now.  Remember it went up something like 800% in one day a few weeks ago so can still have plenty more to run.

But if it becomes legal everywhere wouldn't they be able to just accept credit card and cash and store on their Bank Accounts?

The credit card companies won't work with the marijuana dispensaries, even though it is legal in some states. And handling large amounts of cash is not always ideal.  But you are missing the point here and the point is that POTcoin could be a very good daytrade over the next two weeks.

LOL see the price finally dropping, will continue to do so until Dec probably.  Silly folks who wanna get in early to overpriced still unproven/unused coins WITH holes in it already! /FACEPALM.

When will ppl learn?!?!

When will you learn?!?!  Price is up 300% in the last 4 hours.  People who bought this morning (like me) tripled their money in a few hours.  Some of us are in this for profits, not for whatever you are in it for.

Yes bitcoin does some weird stuff and makes me think it will never be ready for "prime time'.  The long confirmation times are a huge problem, esp if you make a relatively expensive purchase at a retail location.

That's like saying the people who invested into the tech bubble should be compensated.

Check my answer here:

and see if you can export the Private Key for the address that contains the BTC and get them off that way.  good luck.

More info:

My last good transaction was here:  https://blockchain.info/tx/a26245890834c2d628dfb7555b9ce8019d2b008e0a1fd616fc411ba9b58adb91

I sent .024, was fine.  Looks like it send the rest my btc with it to the 1Ad address....that address shows in my receive addresses in multibit.   However, when I eport my wallet, to .key, it loads all my addresses in my rec list, but the 1Ad does not import.....

What do you mean 1Ad doesn't import...import into where?   Do you mean it doesn't export from Multibit into the .key file...that it isn't in your list of private keys.  If you have 570 of them, then you could have missed it somehow.

It should be in there and then you should be able to follow my directions above to recover the BTC at that address.

Re: Transaction disappeared, and bitcoins disappeared.

So you can make new wallet in MultiBit and import all private key from old wallet and let them to synchronize with blockchain so in new wallet don't have history of transaction and coins maybe back - don't forget to close old wallet before synchronization.....and bay me a few beers with bitcoins if this work. Wink

Yes maybe this would have worked as well but considering Multibit lost them, I really didn't want to import them back into Multibit so they could just get lost again.

I had 300 addresses and two of my addresses got lost in Multibit as well.  Well the addresses were there but not the transactions or the BTC.

So I exported the Private Keys to a file and I opened it in Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

That will list all your Private Keys...long list of all of them but won't associate them with the corresponding public key.

So from there, you just go to Blockchain.info and you import Private Key.  You copy and paste each individual Private Key from the list in Excel (or wherever you have the Multibit private key list opened) and you paste it into Blockchain.info and sweet that amount of BTC into your blockchain.info wallet.

You have do this for each one, one by one.  I did 300 of them and probably took me 20 minutes or so.  But that way, you will get all your bitcoin out of all those multibit addresses.

Good luck and hopefully it will work.

Re: Concerns regarding buying bitcoins offline(udercover cops) - What do you think?

And btw, it doesn't matter that much if they tell you the bitcoins will be used for illegal activity or not.  I mean that is a red flag but the guys arrested in FL for selling over $300 in bitcoin per day weren't charged with that.  They were charged with selling over $300 in BTC.

So bottom line is that if you sell over the legal max (which is $300 in Florida), then you CAN be arrested and prosecuted and sent to prison for that.

Don't listen to the other people in the thread who say otherwise...they are clueless.  Or just take some time and research it yourself and don't trust me or the others, but they are wrong.

And I'm not saying don't sell bitcoin, but just telling what the reality is.

Why is it illegal to sell $5K of a commodity?

it is usually $1000+ that's illegal, not $5000 and in Florida, it is $300

And it's illegal because the people with guns and tanks says it is.

Warren Buffet is probably the most undeserving of a good reputation in the whole of the world I can think of. He is 100% a crony capitalist masquerading as some kind of lovable old long term value investor like Mr Monopoly.


Yes, so well said. He has the best publicists that money can buy, and all the dumb people just eat up the propaganda.

Yes another buyer is requiring 50,000 for 1BTC and he is only asking 20,000 for 1 BTC...much better.  And the price of BTC is up too which makes it an even better deal.  I wish I had more to sell.

At about $10.40 we will break the USD $100M market cap. = O

That number is somewhat hypothetical since a wide majority of bitcoins were never sold in the first place.

A better market cap figure would be something like 21M*(all btc ever sold)*(prices they were sold at)/(currently currently issued btc)

Well, theoretically at least.
