Adding platform reviews

20. April 2021 by digital-coin.net Leave a Comment

Although I haven’t been active for a while on my site, things moved on quite a lot in the crypto currency universe. Really a lot. Beside the new highs of Bitcoin, lots of new coins, many new platforms were founded, known ones grew further, Coinbase is now listed on NASDAQ and much more….

As I got some time currently, I started playing around with some of the old and with some of the new players on the market and like to share my experiences I collected using them.

I started using the Celsius app where I started documenting my experience on this page: Celsius. Teaser: I really like it, despite being not really an app-only supporter.

More to come.

Bitcoin Rich List

4. November 2017 by digital-coin.net Leave a Comment

Bitcoin RainHave you ever wondered how much bitcoins the big wallets on the blockchain contain? In the below link, this is exactly what you see:

https://bitinfocharts.com/de/top-100-richest-bitcoin-addresses.html

Yes, that is over a billion USD with the current rate in the 1st wallet. Quite some asset. Most likely the big wallets are the cold wallets of the exchanges where they store securely the coins of their customers. Unlikely that this is a single private person owning so many coins. On the other hand we don’t know; perhaps one of the early adapter that started mining many years ago?

Anyway, still pretty interesting link.

Bitcoin flying high

14. October 2017 by digital-coin.net Leave a Comment

Checking currently coinmarketcap.com, Bitcoin reached a new all time high way over 5500USD; currently it shows it as 5626.48USD for a bitcoin which is an increase of about 9% compared to the last peak. Roughly 75% more then what the rate was a little over a month ago. Hope you all invested back then.

Reasons behind it are speculated by analysts to be the expected technical change that will be implemented later this month with the upcoming fork of Bitcoin Gold; like it was done with Bitcoin Cash end of August, to spread the digital currencies even wider. Although if you look at the current rate of Bitcoin Cash, which is 321.08USD right now, we have to see, if that plan will work out to be successful.

Bitcoin price hit over $1500

6. May 2017 by digital-coin.net Leave a Comment

The Bitcoin price hit over $1500 in the last days which is a new all time high for the crypto currency. Reason for it? That is the big unknown currently and probably everybody would be interested in. It could be that Bitcoin is getting more attraction also within mainstream medias and hence gains in popularity. Although rumors on various sites go more in the direction that Bitcoin acceptance is rising, as further countries intend to regulate digital currencies. Examples like Mexico, India.

Tradingview: BTC reaches 1500USD

This obviously gives a boost to all the (cloud) miners as the outcome of their investments is much more worth then before. Hope you are also one of them.  Some of them are celebrating it with  special offers. This is what I spotted so far:

  • Hashing24.com:  Use promo code RPM2YC9E at checkout and get 4% discount for your purchase!

If you got more special offers, please let me know. Happy to list.

Review free bitcoin faucet: btcclicks.com

20. December 2016 by digital-coin.net 1 Comment

Overview

BTCClicks.com is another free bitcoin faucet site paying Satoshi’s to view their clients ads. It got standard and premium memberships, offers to rent referrals and more to earn more then a standard user. And it works actually pretty well in my experience so far after testing it for a couple of weeks.

 

How it works

BTCClicks displays ads from their paying customers to present it to you as a bitcoin receiving viewer of the ads. Depending on how long you have to view the adds the more Satoshi’s you will get booked to your account. This can be anything from 10 to 60 seconds; 10s adds will get at the point of writing around 39 and a 60s ad about 103 Satoshi’s. From your dashboard you go to “Surf ads” select the ones you are interested in or  pay most and the ad will open up in a new tab/window of the browser. BTCClicks starts counting down the seconds, a captcha shows up, currently a small calculation, enter the result and you get the Satoshi’s booked to your account. Once you got 10’000 Satoshi’s and are able to withdraw to your wallet immediately.

If you will get a premium member of BTCClicks – which cost currently for 90days 0.0081 BTC – then you will get more Satoshi’s per ad, and also more referal reward then a normal user. As example a click reward for a 20s ad for a standard user is 50 Satoshi, for a premium user it is 100 Satoshi.

BTCClicks offers also an affiliate program, with various referal methods. Some of them are paids, which I will not go into further details. One of these options is the direct referals option, which works as known from other sites:

 

Tips’n Tricks

  • Select the longest ads as they pay most Satoshi’s
  • Have it displayed on a separate window – still in the front – so you can also multi-task while viewing the ad

BitLendingClub.com to close their doors in 2017

6. December 2016 by digital-coin.net Leave a Comment
bitlendingclub.com Logo

bitlendingclub.com LogoBitLendingClub.com sent a message to all of its clients the other day where they stated that they have to close their doors due to regulatory pressure in 2017. This is the message they sent to all customers:

 

BitLendingClub Closing Soon Due to Regulatory Pressure

Dear Customers,
We’ve worked extremely hard to build a platform and a community which is uniquely positioned to provide the Bitcoin ecosystem with a greatly needed service. However, over the last year or so, the regulatory pressures has been increasing to the point that it is no longer feasible to maintain the operation of the platform. We are regretfully announcing that we will have to begint terminating the services effective immediately. Of course, we will maintain some minimal functionality in order to allow our existing users to repay their loans and withdraw their funds.

What Functionality Will Remain?
We will restrict the functionality of the website to either repaying a loan, depositing to repay or withdrawing funds. There will be no new registrations, loan requests, verification of new users, investments or anything else. Just repaying of the existing loans or withdrawal.

When Will The Service Become Restricted? 
We expect to begin restricting the functionality sometime next week. We don’t have a specific date, but we will send out an e-mail when the change occurs.

How Long Will The Platform Remain Operational With Restricted Functionality? 
The platform will remain operational with the limited functionality for 30 days after all loans are either repaid or written off (i.e. they have defaulted and are written off). After that we will be terminating the services completely.  The expected termination date is approximately August 2017. it may be earlier or later, but that’s subject to change.

How Long Do We Have To Withdraw Our Funds?  
Users will be able to withdraw their funds up to 30 days after the last loan is repaid or marked as written off. We will completely terminate the platform 30 days after the last loan is repaid or written off. We recommend that you begin withdrawing your funds immediately.

Again, we’re extremely sad to be delivering this news, but that’s the reality of operating a business in the Bitcoin ecosystem. There are regulatory pressures, which make business extremely difficult and we have always done everything possible to be compliant with regulators. Given that we’ve reached the point where it is no longer feasible to run the platform and be compliant, we have decided to terminate the platform.

Best Wishes,
The BitLendingClub Team

 

So what does that mean for you as an investor? Pretty simple: Monitor your investements and as soon as they are paid back make sure to claim your money back and look for further investment options. Either invest into other platforms or use for further mining.

Review: Moon Bitcoin (moonbit.co.in) – Free bitcoin faucet

4. December 2016 by digital-coin.net 4 Comments
Moon Bitcoin Overview

Moon Bitcoin Overview

Moon Bitcoin Overview (moonbit.co.in)Moon Bitcoin (moonbit.co.in) is a free bitcoin faucet. Like on many other faucet sites you can get bitcoins (almost) for free. As many of these sites are more or less trustful, at least that was how I was feeling, I thought I give a little deeper insight, if a site worked successful for me (see screenshot at the bottom) or not.

Moon Bitcoin is one of them that keep their promises: they pay weekly on the weekend the amount you earned. What do you have to do to get paid?

Sign up with your bitcoin wallet address, disable your adblocker, if you got one running, and leave the site open. It displays various ads from their paying customers. Thats how you get money: The longer you got the Moon Bitcoin site open showing advertisements, the more Satoshi will be added to your account.

moonbit.co.in also offers a referral program, where you will get paid if you refer new customers to them. An interesting option if you got a website to get a little bit more out of it. I am using this option too, so appreciate your support by using my link if you give it a try. Thanks.

 

How it works

Moon Bitcoin is an advertisement platform where their customers show ads and they obviously pay money for it. You as a bitcoin receiving visitor get paid part of that money back. The delta is kept by the platform provider which is Moon Bitcoin. That’s how they make money.

The payout frequency is on a weekly basis and the minimum amount Moon Bitcoin is paying is 25’000 Satoshi (0.00025 BTC); the limit was increased from 10’000 Satoshi before.

 

Tips’n Tricks

Moon Bitcoin uses viewing sessions: The longer a session without claiming money is running, the less Satoshi you get over time. So it is worth claiming your amount back after a couple of hours to fill your account the most efficient way. Usually the best point in time is after around 250 – 300 Satoshi in my experience. This is a good compromise between getting a good amount of Satoshi and having not to claim too often. But please give it a try yourself on what works best for you.

Make sure to claim at least once a day to increase your loyalty bonus which increases it everyday by 1 percentage until you reach 100%. If you should miss it one day, it will be reset and you start from zero.

Hope that little review was helpful. If you like to try out Moon Bitcoin yourself, please go here. Enjoy the free Satoshi’s.

Cloud mining

14. November 2016 by digital-coin.net Leave a Comment

This new article is about mining in the cloud, instead of buying and maintaining your own infrastructure and hardware. Various providers are offering their services in the meantime. Worth comparing prices and services.

In other words: No complex setup of hardware and software, no loud coolers running in your basement, or even worse, in your bedroom: This is all located and managed remotely in an appropriate data center.

So why should I consider cloud mining or not?

You should because:

  • No noisy fans at home
  • No increased electricity bill
  • No expensive new miner to invest into
  • No equipment to get rid of when mining profitability ends

You should NOT because

  • Lower profits: As you delegated the system management, there is some fee involved
  • Opaque mining operations
  • Risk of fraud
  • Less control (and fun)

Types of Bitcoin Cloud Mining

Usually we talk about three forms of remote mining available at the moment:

  1. Leased hashing power: Rent an amount of hashing power without owning/renting a dedicated physical/virtual equipment. This is the most popular form of cloud mining.
  2. Hosted mining: Renting mining hardware that is hosted by the provider
  3. Virtual hosted mining: Rent a virtual private (standard) server and install your own mining software on it

 

Cloud mining providers overview

On this page I will start to add cloud mining provider reviews including a scoring so you see immediately if they are worth considering or not. The page just started, so it is a bit slim currently.

bitcoin.org: 0.13.0 Binary Safety Warning

18. August 2016 by digital-coin.net Leave a Comment

This message is directly coming from bitcoin.org to raise awareness of a potential state sponsored attack and about possible mitigation:

Summary

Bitcoin.org has reason to suspect that the binaries for the upcoming Bitcoin Core release will likely be targeted by state sponsored attackers. As a website, Bitcoin.org does not have the necessary technical resources to guarantee that we can defend ourselves from attackers of this calibre. We ask the Bitcoin community, and in particular the Chinese Bitcoin community to be extra vigilant when downloading binaries from our website.

In such a situation, not being careful before you download binaries could cause you to lose all your coins. This malicious software might also cause your computer to participate in attacks against the Bitcoin network. We believe Chinese services such as pools and exchanges are most at risk here due to the origin of the attackers.

Mitigation

The hashes of Bitcoin Core binaries are cryptographically signed with this key.

We strongly recommend that you download that key, which should have a fingerprint of 01EA5486DE18A882D4C2684590C8019E36C2E964. You should securely verify the signature and hashes before running any Bitcoin Core binaries. This is the safest and most secure way of being confident that the binaries you’re running are the same ones created by the Core Developers.

 

If you don’t how to verify the integrity of a file, head over the instructions page of openoffice.org. There you will find explanations available for Windows, Linux, online and more:
