Bitcoin Suppliers

@PTFC  Have you bought any since the price got so high?  I first bought when it was about $700 USD.  Sure the amount I have goes up but I'm gonna have to start buying again.  Annoys me to spend so much.

A friend bought some litecoin.  ANyone into other virtual money?

No, but I did enjoy watching my money just about double! I rarely order these days. I've noticed some fairly large differences between valuations depending on whose network you are synchronised with,  bitstamp, phoenix etc. Still no reply to my unconfirmed amount from multibit of course.......

 
Bitcoin is rather low atm, FYI. Buy if you can.

GoCelrey is no longer a place to purchase coin. Apparently they have had some issues and are no longer operating.

Yeah, I've noticed the dip past few weeks. It was nice watching the rise though, and I'm still "up" as it stands. 

 
I sure hope some of you made some money on the BTC! It has rose significantly in the past few days. Its about to sell BTC or purchase the products you need imo. I hope that when I write updates such as this, that the message finds someone that finds it useful. Have a great rest of the week everyone. :D

You better believe it's useful @Natty! That was a nice little boost!!! 

 
Just saw this on coinbase.  Doesn't say for how long.

@PTFC   I just moved btc from coinbase to electrum.    Coinbase said complete.  electrum says unconfirmed.  Is that cuz i'm waiting for confirmations and how do I find them? I forget.

Nevermind, Lol.   CB says no tconfirmed and I just went by their fee.   I'll watch.    Some days dealing with this is like reading martian

@Natty   on electrum what does it mean when it says new or saved after how long you want to wait for your btc.  I clicked save.   No idea why.

Hmm, I'm not sure actually. Even though I have done this at least 8 times, I still cannot remember which one I selected. I cant even think what the meaning of this prompt "save-new" could mean. 

MAYBE......or Possibly it is creating a sort of copy. For ex; if you were to save a typed document on your computer, then run a spell check and save again or rename it a new file and keep both copies. I hope that this helps. Again, I may be entirely wrong.

I have never had to wait very long for coin to hit my wallet. It is by no means instant, but it has always showed up within a 2hr mark at most. Electrum will state that it is confirmed on the wallet when you open it. That is the only way I ever did it. I just waited and it would show eventually. Of course I was refreshing and waiting, wondering what was taking so long. But again, never a problem on a transfer of funds to my electrum wallet. 

I have a strange message at the bottom of my wallet that has been there for the last month or so.

No fx rate available.

Ill see if I can add the pic to this post. Hopefully someone reads it and can tell me whats going on, how to fix it, or if it is ok to just disregard it. I thought it was because of the drastic fluctuation in BTCS, but I'm beginning to believe that is not the case.

I figured it out.  Saved means it repeats the amount and wallet from before.   New gives you a new wallet.

Dont know about  bottom.  Maybe close it out and reopen and see if that helps.  Use the seeds to open?   

 
I figured it out, I was running version 2.6.4, and a newer 2.8.3 version was available to download. I now see the fiat ticker, and am back to normal now.  :13_upside_down:

I've got 2.8.2    No word on an update. Did you do anything before you installed the newer version or just do it.

Actually I didn't have to do anything at all. I just went to the website and downloaded it again. It just wrote over the old version that I did not bother to uninstall.

After all the problmes I've had I may just wait.  Read about some who had problems with your version.   

 
@screamingmimi, I was gonna suggest a possible update as @Natty,Natty did, I'm not at all proficient with electrum yet, I've installed it and nothing more. Still awaiting a response on my unconfirmed amount with multibit. Don't think I'll be hearing anything however. Might be a good idea to hold fire before updating though.

I wouldn't be surprised. I hate when things update to a newer format. I get used to something, then they switch it on ya, and it comes with bugs and glitches to boot. 

 
I just read this.  Don't know if their is any truth to it. I found it while researching CEX.IO for BTCS. 

"Coinbase is currently taking WEEKS to respond to urgent queries, I’m being told, and they provide no working mechanism whatsoever for users in Wyoming or Hawaii to change their state of residency. When those users attempt to login to upload new IDs or change their address, they are given “Unable to create account” errors which state that “Coinbase has indefinitely suspended its business…” in their old state. In effect, Coinbase has stolen all the Bitcoins from users in those states and may have already absconded with those Bitcoins."

Again, these are not my words, as I don't use the coinbase client for my BTC needs.

  1. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  3. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  4. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  5. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  9. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  10. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  11. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  12. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though

  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
  15. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Wow, for real ? You renewed your DL and without you knowing or having to present documents in person, they did it online? It has the star on top right and says "Rea: ID" Mine says ' NOT A Real ID" . I never knew what a Real ID was and never bothered to ask - I think I somehow was under the impression that it was for either military / gov't workers who had to travel over seas. WRONG lol.
  16. B @ bigblueallda: I already have one and didn't even realize it. I renewed my ID online about 6 months ago and I just looked at it today and it is a Real ID.
  17. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 mine was duped , too. Not sure why or how my msg. duped. IMO that guy if serious and smart wouldn’t advertise with you
  18. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I wish I had it when I flew to Vegas in 2022. The TSA line for Real ID passengers was short. Now it’s probably going to be crazy .
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Has everyone got their Real ID ? I think tomorrow’s the deadline yet just now an agent from AAA (I believe ) was on local news saying you can still get it past May 7.. Required for domestic flights.
  20. T @ Turbo259: sorry for the dupe message
