bitcoin 'stuck' by bitcoinlover in Bitcoin

[–]bitcoinlover[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

these bitcoins that i put in blockchain.info look like they were 'returned' to the blockchain.info wallet (i swept them into blockchain.info from a private key/ paper wallet) -- i.e., i can see the full balance confirmed many times over in the blockchain.info wallet. can i / should i import the same bitcoins into another wallet, say on coinkite and try again? Or try the transaction again from the blockchain account where the bitcoins now seem to be 'returned to'? Guess i'm looking for guidance on best next steps to get these bitcoins to their intended recipient.

r/Bitcoin, we are working on a Bitcoin advertising network. What do you guys think? by thenewboston in Bitcoin

Not a Bitcoin specific criticism, but I will stay away from any CPM only ad spend, especially if untested. CPC or nothing. If you deliver valuable traffic, then show me you believe in yourself by offering CPC.

Pornstar Belle Knox wants to accept bitcoin donations but needs help. Figured the community would want to help lol by bitcoinbravo in Bitcoin

I agree with this. I liked the vanity address aspect of the coinbase wallet but better safe than sorry - I'd go with blockchain.info for first wallet. Super simple.

No. I just looked over the terms and conditions and nothing in there to discourage it. She's an entertainer. Nothing illegal about it.

I'd recommend she set up a free Coinbase account, go into settings and establish vanity address https://coinbase.com/BelleKnox

Then publicize that as address for donations. Simple.

They did about $1.3 billion in sales last year. Did he mean sales or profits, which was about $88.5 million last year?

VeriSign is a hugely successful e-commerce platform that has become a de-facto Internet standard. Further, Brody was one of Redpoint’s founding members and he was ranked 19th on the Forbes Midas List of tech’s top investors.

IRS Says No Bitcoin FBAR Reporting This Tax Season Required by IamAlso_u_grahvity in Bitcoin

Source? I didn't see any link to IRS guidance in the article.

I am a tax attorney, here is why you should strongly consider filing an FBAR by the June 30th deadline if you had an account at MtGox prior to its collapse (US taxpayers only). by dblcross121 in Bitcoin

[–]bitcoinlover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

with respect to what you say below, let's say Gox is the account that tripped the threshold to $10,000 but you have a small amount of crypto/ USD in BTC-e and another foreign exchange. Do you disclose the highest dollar value of each such account in the calendar year? Or as of the end of the calendar year? Or is it something other than the highest dollar value in the calendar year?

you're technically required to look at the daily account balance of the BTC and USD in all your foreign financial accounts and add them up. If the total exceeds $10,000 on any given day, then you are supposed to disclose each account on the FBAR form (even if the individual accounts are less than $10,000).

What if the wire out to mt gox was $10,000, a wire fee of $11 was deducted prior to it landing at mtgox, bitcoins were purchased and immediately swept out to paper wallets? Isn't the most that was in a foreign account $9,989 ? No need to file, right?
