Bitcoin Stuff

Today's post will mainly be links that I've run across or used on this excursion into Bitcoin and related currencies. But, the first update is that 0.157 Bitcoin Value in the Dental Floss Tycoon account is 0.139 value as the hoped for BOOM in the `pot coin' names after the legalization voting on November 4th didn't occur. That said, they did come back some yesterday and I haven't dumped the position much at all yet. And indeed, the PotCoin is actually UP fairly significantly. Must be the strange names like Ganja that spooked the crowd. I did sell at a profit most of my position in ExclusiveCoin (something I will definitely follow closely). I'll review more of that and more in detail in an upcoming post.

The first indications are that the shift to Bitcoin coverage is going well - with more direct usage of those posts than usual (being shared?). Obviously I am offering the old Barfstew format and the new BS Gallery format so that does cover some bases too. Sadly, so far, only 5 of you have been smart enough to sign up for the FREE Bitcoins - Daily..... I know that it is strange for a business plan to begin with giving away money.
============================
Here's some of those links of interest.
Brave New Coin is great for a quick look at the top Digital Currencies Market Caps And Prices, AND - they cover nearly daily the stories happening about Bitcoin - such as:
The World's First `Carbon-Offset' Currency indeed, as I've already noted with the literal EXPLOSION of BRAND named coins - from the pot category to colors to .... yes The UFO Coin for the advancement of understanding UFOlogy..... yes, the marketplace is ENDLESS for this type of segmentation to drain the natural government monies. Other recent stories include how the UK is reaching out to the Bitcoin community as it sets up it's regulations on digital currencies. UK Reachout. You can find many more important stories at Brave New Coin so be sure to bookmark that one.
-------------------------
More links:
Bittrex - is where I am having fun being a Dental Floss Tycoon - easy to use website is nearly self intuitive even for a novice trader. (like myself). One of the busier exchanges.

CoinMarket Cap  is another excellent website currently following over 540 currency values including the less known ones like KarmaCoin.

CryptoCoin Charts - amazing database - brokerage.
============================================

More to update but let's get this up first.

Fifty Buck - Dental Floss Tycooning

Below - you can see the FUN that you can have with digital currencies, and who knows you might just get lucky buying into what appears to be a SWELLING phenomena. Indeed in just the last few months 100's IF NOT 1,000's of `Virtual Coins' have come into beingness. It's an amazing site as EVERY CONCEIVABLE BRAND NAME is being trotted out onto the stage..... from the `Prism' coins that are colors `BlackCoin, RedCoin, WhiteCoin', etc etc. To the VERY latest fad.... the various names for POT..... you will see below what I mean as I initially invested 0.01 or 0.005 Bitcoin into some of the names in the last day or so on a new exchange I've found and am using (and enjoy more than Coins-e, more action) - anyway see the chart below and then I will follow with some more analysis and comments..... https://qoinpro.com/a90da36b9456a793efb260b71192108c

As you see, I bought and own 15k SativaCoin, 2k PotCoin, 1k GanjaCoin and 172 CannabisCoin, .... all on my assumption that the upcoming elections could provide yet another boost to legal herb in the USA (certainly DC will pass). And while PotCoin has been around all of a few months - the others are NEW this month, in the last days in some cases.... I haven't even bought all the names available either such as DarkKush.

Kind of like the CNBC phrase `buy the rumor (the election) - sell the news (the outcome)'..... and what would happen if all the legal users started to ...... invest.
------------------------------------------------------
A BIT more,...... as you can see all of my purchases were not related to the Pot brand name - I got and intend to keep the ReddCoin (of Reddit fame), and VertCoin and ViaCoin, to me had interesting `charts' which I'd like to trade upon as does Exclusive coin - which is the first coin I've `loaded' up with (all of about 10 bucks USD) - all of these are recently newly released coins overall.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The coins got into my Bittrex account via transfers from Coinbase and Coins-e (where I still have ScotCoin and KarmaCoin).... I've listed the Coinbase link for you to use when you buy your first Bitcoin - remember - Coinbase is the one that has a relationship with PayPal. If you ultimately buy 100 USD worth of Bitcoin from Coinbase via my link - you and I get Five USD worth of automatic Bitcoin into our wallets - so, please use it even if you intend to only make a few dollar first purchase of Bitcoin....... the other link I want you to use if ALL THIS is new to you... is the FREE Bitcoin link above from Qoinpro.... that too will help you acquire your first digital/virtual currencies. All you need to use or give to qoinpro is your e-mail and confirm it. Please use my banner above to sign up.

Happy Halloween - Moola Vanishes, Literally

The Journey into Bitcoin will continue but a bit of today's news and the highlighting of folks losing their Bitcoins to underfunded or serious fraud in an unregulated wild west - as Moola goes under with 4000 bitcoins missing in action.

So, I thought I'd end today by going to one of the stat things on this blog for some demos - to get a guage on what they look like as the transition takes place.
