Could be carrying on the trend as tether have dropped a report saying they’re only actually 3% backed by USD. Probably trying to lob it out under the radar of the tesla news.

I’m not convinced...

That’s what it’s become because of the performance problems which are due to design decisions by the devs. There is a school of thought that this is intentional so they can solve it with their own...

I don’t know why they don’t use paypal, perhaps they could, but they don’t. Same as we could all use Tesco (or probably Waitrose around here) but other options also exist.

The performance issue is...

Sounded same in Lebanon, the guy talked about selling the btc for local currency to buy food and pay bills. I think it’s more to avoid the hyper inflation but also makes it easier to sell services...

There was a post by a guy in Lebanon who was doing work online, getting paid in Bitcoin and then converting it via local p2p groups to buy food, their economy is in a bad way since the explosion with...

Fees vary depending on how busy the network is, it’s not constant and doesn’t matter who is doing the transaction. I sent mine around 1st December, you can see how the mempool was on this:...

From wallet to coinbase, the mempool was full up so took a while. Ended up rebroadcasting at higher rate. Because of the per-byte billing my test small transaction ended up costing £6 and the main...

The problem I’ve heard with similar approaches is how you prevent someone from recreating the recent or even entire chain in their favour and then spinning up loads of nodes to accept their version...

Yea, can't remember what it was, most likely something that'd be far more efficient using a normal database like 99.99% of other Blockchain solutions!

My uneducated prediction - Absolutely not, it's going to be manic for years. Regulators are sniffing about, the war chest of MT GOX being sold off by a bunch of lawyers who have no clue what they're...

I also set up revolut after virgin/mbna stopped allowing payments to coinbase. Was very easy, took about 10min to sort revolut (enabling the euro account was the only tricky bit) and a day for the...

Nice timing, caught that trade perfectly!

I've been paying a bit with eth/btc as even if I get it wrong then worst case I'm stuck with some crypto currency so all good. It's very cyclical so just...

I've only been following it for a few months and already seen two other similar drops previously. Some say it's crashing, others say it's Friday.

My virgin credit card no longer allows payments to coinbase, wonder if they've had issues getting money back or if the lizards are conspiring against crypto currencies.

Luckily Barclaycard does...

Could be people see btc has stopped rising so spread their money around which drives alt prices up. Then when that calms down the money returns to btc and it's off again.

Gdax didn't charge...

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but nicehash may not be paying out any more as they got "hacked"....

Depends on the amount, I have about £1k worth and don't consider it worth spending 10% on a hardware wallet, especially as I rarely do transactions. I do a cold offline wallet so print the keys and...
