Je loopt risico als:
- je geen wachtwoord gebruikte bij gebruik van de Bitcoin GUI en op betaalkoppelingen op het internet hebt geklikt.

- Je op afstand de bitcoin-client hebt aangestuurd (met RPC connecties) en connecties toestaat vanaf het internet. (dit staat standaard uit)

Oftewel, als ik jouw situatie zo aan hoor, loop je geen risico.

"If you are using the Windows version of the Bitcoin Core GUI without a wallet passphrase, it is possible that your wallet could be compromised by clicking on a bitcoin: payment request link. If you are using bitcoind (on Linux, OSX, or Windows), have enabled the -rpcssl option, and allow RPC connections from the Internet, an attacker from a whitelisted (-allowip) IP address can very likely discover the rpcpassword and the last rpc request. It is possible (but unlikely) private keys could be sent to the attacker."

Ziet er wel heel fishy uit. Als het echt zou werken, zouden ze het voor zichzelf houden lijkt me Wink

Re: Bitcoin's difficulty is running faster than progress - what's the point?

As far as I can tell, the calculator seems to be working fine.

I think you aren't realistic. You are expecting your mining rig to be a money making machine for ever. The problem is everyone realizes the profitability of mining. As you can see in the calculator the difficulty is expected to rise with 110% every month. So after a year the mining difficulty would have risen with roughly 1500%, which would of course impact the profitability of your mining rig.

Some notes on the calculation:
- you are calculating with 0 $/kWh.
- you expect the price of bitcoin to remain at 1100$ for the rest of the year? Seems unlikely. Many miners expect to generate profit due to the future price of bitcoin.
- you should take in mind the mining rig still has value after the mining isn't profitable any more for you. Selling it will increase your profit even more.

Risks are of course potential pricedrops of bitcoin and an even steeper increase of the mining difficulty. No risk = no profit.

Even besides these points, you are generating 3800 USD worth of bitcoin, with an 3000 USD investment: a ROE of 25% + residual value of your rig. This profit is in BTC (assuming you don't immediately cash-out), so on top of this profit you would also benefit of the increasing value of Bitcoin.

Dont mine, buy hold and sell...

That would be my advice aswell, but that wasn't his question Smiley

Re: BitStamp Verificaton Denied -- What is 300 dpi?

I guess you just were unfortunate with the person reviewing your verification. I submitted my id, heavily watermarked, and a photo of an utility bill in color, got verified without any problem. So maybe you were denied for some other reason. Didn't they provide you with some feedback why you were denied?

Re: bitcoin/litecoin

If litecoin would get the same adoption as Bitcoin, it should be priced 1/4 of the BTC value, due to the max supply which is 4 times as large. So from that perspective Litecoin currently is hugely undervalued. The question no one can truly answer is, will litecoin get adopted/attention like bitcoin? Scrypt asic miners are coming, not any time soon as far as I know. Litecoin is in the GPU mining rig stage, like Bitcoin half a year ago.

As reflected in the recent price surge, the general feel around litecoin has been positively increasing the recent period. Like any other stock, the price, especially the LTC/BTC-pair, represents the general feeling, which seems to be more positive the recent period.

Re: How to recover lost bitcoin wallet?

There is no supported way to recover your wallet. The only way is to brute-force the password, this would indeed take an eternity if you have no clue what the password was. However if you a slight clue what the password was, the possiblities to brute-force it would drastically deminish, which might make it worth to try. There are tools/services which are able to do this for you, google Smiley

Re: Virtual Value

It seems to me like you're using redundant steps in your conversion (read: Paypal). What is wrong with using a regular bank transfer? I know there are some problems with getting your bitcoins converted to USD, but that seems to be a temporary problem. Here in Europe BTC is easier to get every day now. My belief is that this widespread increasing availability of conversion opportunities is one of the causes of the recent search in the value of BTC.

If you find the convertion process to much of hassle, just wait a few months. It's just a matter of time before Bitcoins will be as easy (probably easier) to convert as USD/EUR.
