Bitcoin

I'm realizing these exchanges are not where they need to be technically yet.
Go over to worldcoinindex.com and click on bitcoin, it lists all the exchanges.

You have to change the currency to GBP first.

The only two I see are Coinfloor and GDAX.

Bitcoin is going to be the biggest market very soon. Everyone in shifting to bitcoin casinos nowadays. It's way more easy to use and provides users a real sense of security and trust.

I've been using Kraken for more than a year - and I'm not too happy

The suspended Btc/GBP transfers once before - then last week I got this e-mail:


... which means I can't cash-out my Bitcoins!
I'm currently looking for another exchange good for £GBP.
Anyone have any suggestions?

The biggest market? Very soon? I'm not so sure about the timing of your prognostication. However, it is certainly gaining in popularity. One of our partners recently shared with me what percentage of their deposits had been crypto and I was quite surprised at how high it was. However, this was a site in the US market. A market where cryptos are much more useful. In the Euro/ROW markets, very few of our partners have crypto deposit/withdrawal options. Likely because of regulations, licensing issues, and lack of real need (they have ewallets after all).

I think that the "provably fair" part of the crypto casinos is a trust builder though. That has real potential IMO and I wish more sites would adopt such a model as I feel that would help dispel the player's fears about being "cheated" at casino games that I so often hear.

I wonder why the Goldman Sacks news today didn't cause a bump?

I've been all in on bitcoin and holding since BP started paying out in BTC.. biggest markets very soon? I agree there is a real chance of this. Especially when dealing with moving money around online. The chance that BTC will take over is still small, but growing everyday. I have better odds of being a millionaire in BTC then in USD at this point

Nice. I haven't checked but I've sold about 75 - 80% along the way. I wouldn't feel comfortable to hold all the BTC, but should've definitely sold less. Water under...

Tell me about it!
I sold 22 in December for $766 & 16 in April for $1,205...
I try not to think about the fact I would have been over $200,000 better off now if I had held on to them...

I'll post this email just in case some have not seen it.

Dear GDAX Customer,

We wanted to remind you that the upcoming Bitcoin Segwit2x hard fork is projected to take place on November 16 and will result in two bitcoin blockchains.


Following the fork:

• GDAX will continue referring to the current bitcoin blockchain as Bitcoin with ticker BTC and the forked blockchain as Bitcoin2x with ticker B2X.

• GDAX will disable deposits and withdrawals for Bitcoin (BTC) approximately 24 hours before the fork and re-enable 24-48 hours after the fork for both Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin2x (B2X).

• GDAX will enable trading of both BTC and B2X within 4 hours of the fork.

• Any customer storing Bitcoin (BTC) on GDAX at the time of the fork will be credited with an equal amount of the Bitcoin2x (B2X) asset on the Bitcoin2x blockchain.

If the Bitcoin2x blockchain becomes the chain with the most accumulated difficulty, and the chains are in a stable state, we will consider renaming it to Bitcoin and send an additional communication at that time. We will consider other factors such as market cap, community support, etc to determine stability. We will start evaluating this 2 weeks after the fork.

For a detailed timeline of events surrounding the fork please see our blog postand FAQ.


Thank you,

GDAX Team

Has anyone claimed the Bitcoin Gold last month?

Has anyone claimed the Bitcoin Gold last month?

I don't think it's ready to be claimed yet. I read about it yesterday and it seems they were behind schedule and just putting out a testing setup. Also last I looked on coinmarketcap the prices that were being listed were clearly listed as FUTURES which to me means that there is no real trading of the coins as of yet.

 

[slotplayer]

speaking of futures, saw this on the news last week.

Yeah. I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not. Sure, btc appeared to take another leg up on the news, and that of course is good on the surface for btc holders. However, there is this persisting belief among goldbugs and silverbugs that the "paper market" is the reason that gold and silver aren't taking off in this inflationary environment where central bank are printing trillions of dollars every year.

The idea is that all the fiat money printed is in part being used to "naked short" the gold and silver derivatives and thus suppressing the price. If this is in fact the case and that the traditional gold/silver precious metals are being suppressed maliciously by futures trading in order to mask or downplay the crazy money devaluations taking place over the last decade. The fear is that the same thing could happen to Bitcoin. If "the powers that be" can naked short bitcoin, they can control the price and stop the price appreciation...

I haven't claimed BTG yet. At the current price of $151 it's a bit of a disappointment. At least BCC is worth $610..
