I believe that BTC price is determined by an alcoholic garden fairy, named Phil. He takes his most recent Pacman score (he plays nearly everyday) divides it by the middle two digits of a random phone book entry, then multiplies it by the number of things he can see that begin with the letter 'F'. That, to the power of 3 and dived by Pi, is the current value of BitCoin.

Haha, you write really well. Reminds me of Douglas Adams.

Kudos.

I've posted this before on here but when the Silk Road was a thing (around 2014), I bought 46 bitcoin for $9 each. Spent them all on drugs.

Didn't save any.

Apparently you live and learn but that was a hell of a pill to swallow when they went to $10,000 a piece!

Oh well. Fuckabix.

Cheers BB

Feel your pain here but. I've bought copious amounts of bitcoin at £9, £12, £18 in bigger quantities and did exactly what I intended to use them for, buying weed ha. Which was incredible at the time. No regrets, we weren't to know. It was a lot of new scarily complicated information at the time and a lot to figure out. I'd try spend mine as quick as possible as overnight they were way less or sometimes way more, this use to baffle and scare me ha

oh that bigga

You also have the halving coming up, which will further reduce supply, unlike quantative easing from fiat currency.

Institutional investors and insiders have the biggest impact though the former are more volatile. It basically trades like a growth stock so news effecting the adoption of the currency like news on regulation has a big impact. Note this rarely has to do with adoption by users it's more about whether big funds can buy btc.

Pretty much all coins vary in value like stocks do. There is finite supply of coins based on mining, which is using processor power to solve pieces of the block chain which gets more difficult as it progresses. However no matter the amount of coins that are availible if they are not wanted then the price goes down.

Often times certain events influance the demand for the currancy. The reason it went down this time was due to a Coinbase announcement that they where not going to be allowing BCH trades for a specific period after the hard fork that happened just recently. A big BTC holder sokd off a shiload of coin which started it to drop and of course others started following suit and sold off their coin as well. There are also things like market corrections, people pulling out to invest in stock or alt coins and a bunch of other random shit. Some of which is predictable and others very much not so.

Hope that kinda sumarizes things.

Shouldn't that coinbase announcement help BTC as it's a substitute for BCH?

U heard of pi ? I’m mining it for free . It’s worthless right now but it will be mainstream by the end of this year I believe ? Give it 10 years ;) maybe rich as anything if u mine now for free using the app .

I am sending you 1π! Pi is a new digital currency developed by Stanford PhDs, with over 10 million members worldwide. To claim your Pi, follow this link https://minepi.com/jlfcoin and use my username (jlfcoin) as your invitation code.


Have a look everyone !?

The cryto world is even more fickle then the actual stock market. CoinBase is one of the biggest market places / sellers of crypto so it put a lot of people on edge. Been downward a lot since then.

I noticed my wallet went down a couple days ago, the pound happened to drop at the same time, is this just purely coincidental?

Supply and demand. Not being short here but every price comes down to that.

OK what determines supply and demand?

Supply is limited by mining difficulty so it's always growing at a slower rate. Basically coins are getting harder and harder to mine.

So the bitcoin value should be increasing not decreasing?

Demand is another matter, who buys bitcoins? Besides biggaz? Speculators, "fin-tech" traders of every size and shape but they all look for one thing: a quick profit. Their dealings amongst themselves is all game theory and meme-pumping. So lots off ups and downs.

This is why the long term trend is up. The way this mob looks at things is "asset classes" and "exposure". Once the portfolio managers have permission from their elders crypto is declared an asset class. Then the managers are actually required to have exposure to it.

Cash.app is ~2% ...uses SegWit-Bech32...once to buy and once to send. Transaction was super fast, <1min to confirm at escrow.

Pretty sure I’ve just been charged about £16 to send £38 through coin corner feel sick 0.0005 btc didn’t realise the amount at the time.... any tips how I can get my remaining money in there approx £35 out to somewhere cheaper to send from?

Just paid 6p:)

Yeah, this was posted about 2 weeks ago.

Use "replace by fee" in your wallet and you can set the transaction fee to as low as you want, don't go too low though otherwise no one will bother confirming your transaction.

Hi green cigar. ..yes i had same problem last night.just wanted to make a small order this time..around £20..and Bittylicious wanted £10 in charges..WTF..cant bring myself to make order now..£30
For a basicallly a sample..seems like im not the only 1..its vendors who will miss out more now..so means no weed for the weekend.but i wont be going ahead with order either way
Its a case of cutting my nose off this time..than pay that f***ing ridiculous amount..jb

If there's more transactions going on, then the fees increase (I think). So, it BC is ona run, lots of people buy and sell and network fees increase.

i was buying last night and fees were as always on coinbase

I don't send from Coinbase... It's linked to all my personal data. I use a separate wallet. This is where you'll see a hike in fees (from a seperate anonymous wallet).

same, unfortunately

Cost me over $10 in fees last night to buy something which was $14, so almost doubled the total price I had to pay

What wallet do you use, man?

Coinbase wallet. Was pretty strange considering that moments before I had done a $30 order and the fee was like $1.70

was trying to get an order in last night but the minimum fee to send any transaction was £7+ and i couldn't bring myself to pay it!
but then i started thinking what if this becomes the new norm, went to pay it and the fees had gone up to £9, so i had to buy more coin to cover the fees whilst paying fees over and over again to coinbase for buying small amounts to try and cover this network fee, this actually kept happening over the space of about 2 hours, in the end lost about £24 to fees just to order something for £96 and the £10 network fee you see at the bottom there, honestly can't even begin to explain how pissed off i am!

Mine says 19p at the moment. I use blockchain

Had a 19p transaction I made today at 10am. Still pending. Can’t knock Coinbase on this one this is sending eth from Jaxx but either way to be out of funds and 12 hours pending now is fucking bollocks

I had a lower priority transaction take a WEEK recently fml

Christ almighty...I wouldn't have minded I knew it was no relevance to the miners because of the low gas fee, but the fact I couldn't even increase the price manually is pretty shit so once paid up had no control..still a way to go until this is viable across the board. Possibly improvements with ETH 2.0 on the speeds but unless you can affect the reward to the miners you're caught really

I did set it at the lowest priority (issues with balance spending) to move it to another wallet....but a WEEK!

Shocking mate

Coinbase has all your information, right?

ID yeah but all goes through separate wallet anyway they weren’t the issue was the gas fees on eth, either way bit of a nause

Been there mate ultimately crypto will never replace fiat with these issues. Greet investment especially with recent trends on btc and eth but still too jumpy for these quick transactions. I try and keep a fiver or so buffer and always send over a couple of quid on top but still wide open and will happen again. You could easily stick a tener on top of already inflated product prices which is another factor why buyers are getting fed up

Hey Guys
Do your trading late at night , cheaper fess when it's not busy , or certain times in the day .. if you check on your wallet and have btc coin in there it will tell the fees to send , thats when you know its cheaper times ect ..

Am with coincorner shit man they charge to deposit then charge to buy btc then charge to send btc its so embarrassing sometimes when a think a have enough btc to buy then after forgetting about the fee a have to cancel lol

I buy the bitcoin , xfer to anonymous wallet , and pay from there. Fees are normally in pence, but does depend on network traffic.

I had that yesterday. Nearly £3 to send £125 from blockchain

Crazy shit. Same as. I had to buy more BTC just to cover it!

Same here!! I had 3/4 quid in there already it wouldn't let me use it either ?? I had to top up , still got the 3/4 quid ??

This is happening to me and its driving me up the wall! How on earth are you supposed to enjoy the gains of BTC when youe wallet/blockchain wont let you spend all funds?? I usually have $10-15 stuck in my wallet and am only able to send it if i hit lowest lowest priority, then it takes a week to move to my other wallet. Not cool

Petite send your funds after midnight , cost 16p to send £150 last night :) :) always quite late in the night :)

I usually buy on here after midnight. I'm not having issues with fees though???? Haha

This happened me with Blockchain. I made sure I had enough in my wallet to pay, but when trying to do the transactions it wouldn’t let me saying I needed more money - despite having enough for the payment + sending fees.

Topped up my balance a few quid, paid the transaction and when I checked my wallet after I had around £5 in the wallet. Really frustrating losing unnecessary money to fees!

Coinbase only seem to charge me €1.99 fee for sending and receiving BTC

Coinbase have all your personal information... don't forget that!

not only do they have your personal details, they send them out like a receipt to anyone transacting with your wallet. Found that out the hard way. Doxxed by my btc wallet lol

Not like my door going be booted in over a 50 pound bag bro lol

And what a cunt that is btw

Never travelled anywhere without an 1/8th of hash in my pocket. Pop it in my mouth like a sweet just before I get to the scanner.

Only place I didn't risk it was USA but I was going to a legal state anyway.

Whatever you decide to do chuck it in a mylar bag, heat seal it and then repeat. This will solve any scent issues- up to you where you want to "store" it then, but I'm not sure if I would want one of those bags up my arse!

I know a couple chaps who put it in a bottle of suncream wrapped in clingy. Worked every single time.

If you need a clean CRB for your job, don't risk it. If you don't need a clean CRB, then put it in your bum. It's really the worst worst rubbish getting busted at an airport.

I fly to Germany for work, I always get asked “why do you hire a car at the airport and not get a taxi to the hotel?” “For flexibility i reply” little do they know before I go to the hotel I’ll do a 2 hour drive into NL to get my stash ?

I've flown in and out of the UK with weed MANY times with no issues. Every time I've been to 'Dam I've had at least a few grams in my hold luggage upon return, never more than 5g though. I'd have it in a trouser pocket, folded up in my hold bag. Always arrived safe at the other end. Probably just luck, but also don't think they're as thorough as they like people to think. In saying that, there's really no point IMO as it's easy to find high quality bud and hash in most of Germany. I've been to Berlin, Cologne, and Frankfurt for work a few times and always got offered weed in the first bar we'd set up in. Webehigh is a good site for finding weed abroad. While some of it isn't accurate, it has worked for me more than once.

Wouldn't dare try it with carry on mate. Checking a bag is the best, and put some behind soap in a sealed soap dish ;) Although I've brought some hash back in my jacket pocket coming from Amsterdam - felt like William Hayes in Midnight Express - it was quite the buzz! I was all ready to feign ignorance, ha ha.

I always get a fresh pot of hair wax. Double bag and tape up a Q Scoop out some wax put the bud at the bottom smooth back over and chuck in your wash bag. Tried and tested worked for me many times with carry on luggage.

Sorry bud but Banged up Abroad comes to mine...not worth the risk.

Haha

Hi there
I never did without a checked bag, thus I can not help...
An alternative could be to drive from Köln to the NL and enjoy a great coffee shop as this is not so far...Then you come back with your weed
Enjoy Germany!

I’d love to but my rental company are anal about me going over 400kms and my journey is about 360

This is the best solution in my view. It simply isn't worth getting caught in an airport with weed to try and take it. Many people have and have been fine, but the risk is too great in my opinion. Source something when you are there, don't take it with you dude.

I've taken stuff on holiday to Spain numerous times, but always in checked luggage. Sorry, I know you said you weren't checking luggage, but there it is. Check a bag is my advice.

Just an idea, why not order on here before you go so it’s waiting when you get there?

I did that when I flew to Portugal it worked perfectly I was absolutely buzzing. But unfortunately this time I will be staying with a friend at his parents hotel and apparently a few weeks ago it all kicked off because a staff member had there stuff delivered to the hotel and his dad found out and went mad. And I’m looking to get employed so I don’t want to piss him off before meeting him haha

Carts in your luggage, done it loads a times. Even had one in my pocket before and put it in the tray with my phone and money. If asked? It’s CBD, never been asked though.

Best answer for carry on ^^

Before vaping indoors was banned i've even had the audacity to hit a vape in the waiting lounge xD I saw someone else do it so thought heh. This was wayyy before people knew thc vapes were a thing I had a prototype sent from cali lol

I’m not a fan of carts I bought a few when I was in Vancouver and it didn’t touch me. It’s nothing like a bong haha

Fuck me mate I can get blitzed on carts lol

Oh really, I might have to give them another go! Any vendor you recommend?

I buy from MJconcentrates mate but had a couple from SayNo2Drugs.

Get a gram Shatter mould into a bear shape chuck it in with Harrybo Works a treat

When I came back from Vancouver I did that with edibles lol I got a pick a mix bag and bought loads of different edibles and took them out the packaging. But on the plane on the way home I opened my bag and WOW the smell it stunk the whole plane out oops

I suggest that for travel, mct infused drops in a 10ml sealed bottle are the most inconspicuous option

If I have edibles I seem to need about 1000mg before it does anything I don’t know why? It’s super annoying and expensive so I don’t really bother anymore

I have been told many many times that carts are the way forward with travelling and crossing boarders.

Work a treat I even got given a little clear bag to go through with no suspicion raised

A company called smugglers duds make some boxer shorts with a hidden compartment which i recommend. They would just chuck it away, but you might miss your flight so be safe mate. Peace and fine herb to you

I don’t see how they would work as the body scanner would spot I have something in my pants.

Haha true just the thought of me in a room squatting and some border dude checking my anus is empty puts me of a bit hahahaha

Was going to say the same I’ve don’t it plenty of times coming back from Amsterdam the scanners only look for weapons and bombs so internal won’t matter bud straight up the bum and your good to go if you can’t do that double wrap in Mylar bags and heat seal then you can put in suitcase bro

Never had any probs coming from dam a wee smelly bag chucked in luggage too easy! Plus always post some ?

Really? I can’t tell if your taking the piss haha I have to say it has crossed my mind.

Dont stick stuff up your arse mate (unless thats your thing - we arent in prison). Behind the balls is fine or discretely stashed in luggage. Worked many times for a guy i know...

If is stashed somewhere on my body won’t that show up on the body scanners?

Don't try hiding it on your body at all, friend thought he was clever & tied loads of little bags to the string waistband on his shorts & got caught. Was hilarious to watch security pulling them out like a magicians scarves tho. A different friend has been successful a few times taking jelly bean sized balls of hash in a giant jar of jelly beans. It's also worth noting that even dogs can't smell through petroleum jelly, wrap it up then smear a generous amount of vaseline on cling film then wrap it round whatever you want to get through & your OK as long as you don't get searched, or maybe bury it in a big jar of vaseline or 2, you may appear to be a bit of a pervert but it's better than getting your smoke discovered

that's a great idea. throw in some whips and a pair of handcuffs and you just come across as a law abiding pervert. might have to try this the next time I go to the states.

Yes

I am not airport security bud, as i say worked in the past. Think they are looking for weapons and bombs more than little lumps of hash, but do be cautious. I wouldnt recommend breaking any laws dude, be careful all about personal choice. Id rather they found a lump in my shorts than have to put stuff up my bum!

I’m not saying it’s right but I have got it into Australia even past dogs, got it into Greece and everywhere I travelled. It was about 15-20 years ago, but I used to just clean my bag and then put a good amount in the seams as if it could just have spilt out long ago like a couple of spliffs worth, leave it for a couple of days before you go so the smell dissipates then if it’s found you can say your a smoker back home and it must have spilt from carrying it before now, I’ve never been caught, I would also put a couple of spliffs worth broken up in the bottom of my baccy when I used to smoke so I could have said the same thing if it got found but it never did. Smoked up my friend in Aussie for one big Sesh needless to say he was shocked he had just flown with me and didn’t know anything he was cross for 2 minutes stoned for hours :) or the time I went to Greece was a family holiday I got high everyday!

just seen this now would be very interested in Cali

beware this vendor will rip you off. clams to be out of stock. proper scum bag.
