I'll check into it thanks. I sould have mentioned Im running ubuntu.

I think you underestimate the worldwide bitcoin community. China wont stop producing bitcoins. Even if it became illegal to mine BTC in the states, people will still mine as long as its profitable.

I *really* dont want to side with OP, but is some terms I think he is right. Bitcoin mining does seem more like a lottery or contest in comparison with actual gold mining.

And you DO have yo pay to play. its called electricity. About a month and a half ago I turned off all ten of my 1TH/s miners. It made no sense to mine using electricity when the value of bitcoin was/is dropping. I was "paying to play" and i could not afford it any longer. In some respects its not much different than if you go to a casino to play blackjack and you do well and profit, take a break, come back after lunch to play and you start losing. Are you still gonna play??? Are you still gonna mine?

BEAST OPTIONS IS A SCAM WEBSITE. I sent in 1.0 BTC, did not make a trade, requested my funds and their email communication takes several days, asking for more and more info to process the withdrawal. SCAM.

Hello! Can anyone help? Installed on Ubuntu via github instructions. All seemed OK. I have inputed my API/secret and other info into the config file as well.

When launching in the terminal I use "nodejs gekko" and I get this message. Thanks for any help!

But it feels like you have a personal vendetta against certain community people. Instead of attacking others, you could take a different approach such as promoting the people you have trust in, people that have viewpoints and/or morals that align with your way of thinking. That would definitely be a much more positive way and you would gain friends instead of turning people off. You have the same negative vibrations in comments on other websites too. So this really isnt just about Roger. Its almost like you have become or are becoming what you most despise. And Im sure thats not you at all. Someplace maybe you were wronged, I dont know, but just sit back and think about the message you are trying to portray and whatever it is you are typing, ask yourself... will this be constructive? does this jive with you want to happen? What is it that you want to happen? Maybe thats a better question and then look at which ways, or which commenting method will help you achieve you goal faster. Anger and hate or promoting people that you side with. Thats just my 2c. I think generally we are all good people and instead of this little bickering we could just, you know, why cant we all just get along?

Wait, wait... YOU'RE the answer!

Sorry but in any walk of life... athlete, lawyer, gold miner, pencil pusher, whatever... you will find all sorts of people across the Dungeons & Dragons alignment scale. Theres no getting around that and IMO everyone has something to contribute.

I have to disagree here. Real change happens when people work together for a belief of something better. For example if we all collectively decided to stop paying taxes. How would the impact the country? There would have to be immediate dialog. Obamacare? Maybe its good for a handful of helpless people, but its a burden on everyone else. What if people marched and forced all of congress to use Obamacare also? Change would happen pretty quick. Usually nothing happens because there are always naysayers and those that dont hold up to their word.

We are starting to see breaking points around the country and around the globe against the government cartels that run things. People are grouping together to find our own real solutions. Bitcoin is one of them.

I know many people with dual citizenships. My wife loves her country, but got US citizenship so she could get a decent job here in the states. Running businesses overseas is not a crime. In fact many people run businesses in places like Puerto Rico for their tax benefits. Nothing wrong with that. this isnt the bible and the eye of the needle story here, so Id say Rogers yearly tax bill alone will be larger than 99% of the average Americans lifetime of taxes. That alone should give Roger a free pass to travel in the states.

The real prob is the absolute idiots running Homeland Security, ISCIS, Immigration, etc. Whatever new name our politricksters like to call it after the previous ones F something up. I dealt with them when bringing my wife to the states. Downtown Los Angeles. I got a letter saying my wife was to immediately report to Dept Homeland Security and get ready to be deported. We filed our immigration papers properly, sent them in properly and the government screwed up some of our paperwork. They were in the wrong. We headed to downtown to speak with whomever we could. Waited in line 3 hours to get in (funny how we were the only ones who spoke english, dont we have any standards anymore?) then waited another hour to reach the front desk. The large lady behind the counter with her beautiful long nails, immaculate hair style had no care for anyone in the whole building except herself. We showed her the proof that the government screwed everything up and I wanted her to fix it. She said "all this looks gooood to meee. I dont see what the problem is. looks like you done screwed up." I have no idea how these people working for the government get their jobs. Absolutely ridiculous. She refused to say the government was at fault and she threatened to have us arrested for asking to speak with her supervisor. We called our local state representative and he listened to us and promised everything would be fine. We had our case expedited and instead of waiting months, we came back in a week for an interview and found out that lady that helped us had since been fired.

In Rogers case, if he had an educated person behind the desk helping him, if that person spoke to others in the building and just looked at the docs, Roger would have been fine to enter. The people they look for are the ones with zero connections to home and become a flight risk to stay in the US and become a financial burden on the state. Roger is none of those.

This was a political move against Roger no doubt about it.

Lets see where Buffet invests based on last months reporting... American Express, Bank of NY Mellon Corp, Goldman Sachs, Mastercard, M&T Bank Corp, US Bancorp, VISA, Wells Fargo & Co.

Buffet invests with five banks and the top three credit card services. NUFF SAID!

Cardforcoin will be accepting Amazon gift cards direct to BTC soon... https://cardforcoin.com

Otherwise you can make a deal with a trusted person or use a site like Raise (best of the card 4 cash services IMO) to convert to fiat and then go buy some bitcoin...

I have used Purse a few times now without any problems. My sister has used it a few times as well. I had tried the other one... Brawker a couple of times and both times testing it out on a Macys purchase and also an eBay purchase and while they both worked out fine, the buyer on both different orders acted strange to me, wanting me to release funds early, release partial funds, etc. Weird stuff and not needed as their BTC price was locked in. Never say never but I doubt I will touch Brawker again.

Something like this...

I'm using Bitpay and Im not cashing it all out. My BTC goes into cold storage and at the end of the week I reconcile my bills and cash out only whats needed to cover those bills. Any BTC left over I keep! So, its not instant by any means, although I could set it up as such.

I also mine BTC and Im not cashing them out either.

You might try the Google Chrome app called "Wave Accounting". I know a lot of people were requesting they include bitcoin as an option for invoicing, so maybe they have implemented it by now.

Humanity has been restored! Thanks for the updates along the way. May health & prosperity bless you.

THIS. Ive made some decent BTC with roulette, blackjack and sports betting.

Not to mention the 'provably fair' aspect of BTC gaming. That alone will change the entire online gambling community and thus the adoption of bitcoins in the process.

YEP. Investment firms are doing this all day long. Buy at $400, sell at $500. You cant get BTC on LocalBitcoins for spot price either.

I might be interested in buying your car for BTC, if you are going to Inside Bitcoins LV, I could meet you there for the transaction. You must have used your BTC for SR purposes because you keep mentioning it over and over and over, yet you have never mentioned 70% of BTC movement thats happening over in China.

As Ive stated elsewhere, since we live in first world countries, maybe we dont see the true value of BTC yet as others might see in Africa, Romania, Ukraine or other emerging economies. * As an example I am sending relatives in Ukraine bitcoin so they can barter and get the goods they need. The Hryvna is losing value and bitcoin is a premium there since its easy to transfer from person to person, especially when banks there are many times closed, bombed out, etc.

Ive sat on several private calls with banks and large accounting firms and they have all said bitcoin will rise because it is so disruptive to the status quo. I can send $10 million within minutes, anonymously, paying what... 12 cents? You dont see any value in that??? Come on.

A friend of mine purchased a small place outside of Florence, IT earlier this year all with BTC. No government, etc saw that transaction. Theres no way he could have moved gold bars on a plane or used a credit card. Credit cards are total shit. BTC is already better. Whenever I go to Brooks Brothers to buy a new suit or pick up a Canali suit at Nordstrom my credit card gets put on hold and we have to spend the next 10 minutes talking to my card company making sure Im the guy making the purchase and I KNOW the people working in the stores. I have a high income, I have an almost perfect FICO credit score, I own a large home and there is two decades worth of my historical footprint of my credit card purchases at high end places like Rolex and Panerai stores in Beverly Hills, and yet I still have problems making purchases with my credit card.

Lets be honest, we all know you are trying to get BTC sub $300 so you can pour more money in. And so will I.

Looks great! I'm already placing bets. Well designed website.
