I advise everyone to start making transactions now, while they are still relatively cheap. Just send random amounts of bitcoins to random addresses and then sell your transactions to people who actually want to send bits to that address.

Can you cancel a transaction to unfuck yourself when e.g. you've accidentally tried to transfer all your funds with 0 fee?

What next? Chargebacks? This is actually extremely good that you can't cancel your transaction.

My question is is it theretically possible to pay miners so they DON'T approve your transaction?

i'm diversifying my cryptos now. if i wanted to sell some of my btc to buy eth or ltc, it would make the most sense to just trade BTC for LTC or ETH, right? and not BTC for cash, then cash for ETH or LTC?

What do you think

Well, I don't know. I'm too lazy to read his website. But considering that cashing out a million dollars is probably not an easy thing to do, he just donates bitcoins. But why/how do charities accept bitcoins?

Quite a few set up a merchant account with Coinbase or Bitpay so they never have to touch the poop.

Still a bit unusual. I donate to different charities quite regularly, and I don't think even one accepted bits.

If you didn't have an immediate hunch that that sort of thing could never have actually happened in reality then your brain is underdeveloped.

Transfer to Litecoin then sell it off immediately. Move your BTC Cash to another exchange and rinse repeat, or let it ride if you want to keep gambling. Don't worry about fees since you basically just found a bunch of money in your jean's pocket.

Do not rinse, and do not repeat. Get money and be happy with that.

He posted his opinion on Blockchain, in a post not addressed to me, why exactly do you think that I should respond to it? That's what he thinks of Blockchain. He's entitled to his beliefs.

the NIST guide is a pretty good summary of Blockchain and there's a decent reference to link people when they ask about it in the future

We find approximately one-quarter of Bitcoin users and one-half of Bitcoin transactions are associated with illegal activity. Around $72 billion of illegal activity per year involves Bitcoin, which is close to the scale of the US and European markets for illegal drugs.

Here's my full conversation with their support guy called 'Sam'

quote:

Sam
Hello, would you like to talk about how to proceed further?

Me
Yes
Hello
I would like to purchase some coins

Sam
Sure
did you manage to register in our website already?

Me
No, not yet. Do you deliver to the UK?

Sam
Yes
we cater globally

Me
That's brilliant

Sam
to become the part of the next generation of the Bitcoin there are only 3 steps :
Step 1: Sign up with Bitcoiin 2Gen.
Step 2: Activate your Bitcoiin2Gen account by verifying your email, please find the activation link in your registered email inbox or spam folder.
Step 3: Once you signed in you will be able to so see your Dashboard, the next step for you would be to purchase some tokens (B2G) from your investment dashboard. below the dashboard, you have options to buy B2G by Bitcoin, Ether and Credit Cards. During our ICO period, the price for 1 B2G is $5.
Once you complete the payment and the transaction is confirmed, tokens will be added to your balance automatically.

Me
Okay, I'll give it a go.

Sam
sure2

Me
But is there any warranty period on those coins?

Sam
you can email me at Sam@bitcoiin.com if you need assitance
once you made a payment it will be automatically converted in to B2G coins
and after 33 days
we will be in all major exchange
by that time you can trade it to any crypto coins or convert it to fiat currency

Me
That's wonderful. Will I be able to convert to Shmeckels?

Sam
our conservative estimation after 33 days from $5 it will be around 15-$20 dollars per coin

Me
That's not bad at all.

Sam
yeah actually and it depends also in the market
but as of now
based on the demand
it will be higher that the estimated price

Me
Is there a way for me to print my coins for a cold storage?

Sam
no sir, once it will be live
you will have your own wallet
where you can store all the B2G coins

Me
Ah, makes sense

Sam
if you need any assistance just email me at Sam@bitcoiin.com

Me
Thank you very much.

Sam
My pleasure sir! hope to hear from you soon

It's definitely not a terrible scam, imo.
