The People's Bank of China's frequently updated restrictions against Bitcoin finally pressure some Chinese banks to issue a deadline against several bitcoin exchanges, requiring them to close their accounts by April 15.

Using offshore banks, novel cryptographic voucher systems and other solutions, these trading platforms continue to operate, but at greatly reduced volumes from their hayday in 2013.

IRS Declares Bitcoin To Be Taxed As Property - March 26, 2014

The IRS policy document declares Bitcoin to be property, not currency, subject to capital gains tax – with that tax calculated against every change in buying power for a given amount of bitcoin, from the time it's acquired to the time it's spent. The decision is widely derided as unwieldy and overly complex, requiring users of the currency to record Bitcoin's market price with every transaction, subject to an array of largely unfamiliar calculations. Others, however, remark that the net tax paid may often be less than if Bitcoin were treated as currency proper - but to a market that emerged in tax-free innocence, it is a difficult blow to soften.

In an article titled "The Face Behind Bitcoin", journalist Leah McGrath Goodman writes that an unemployed engineer in Temple City, California is in fact Bitcoin's creator.

Chinese Government Bans Financial Institutions From Using Bitcoin - December 5, 2013

Exchange Rate Peaks at $1,242 on Mt. Gox - November 29, 2013

Rapidly growing Bitcoin investment from China steadily drives prices higher and higher, reaching a peak on November 29th. Subject to strict controls concerning the movement of money across the country's borders, Chinese citizens embrace the freedom provided by Bitcoin with open arms, seeking an alternative to the state's inflating official currency, the Renminbi. The origin of mainstream Chinese interest in Bitcoin is largely credited to Jet Li's One Foundation, which publicized a Bitcoin address for donations in the wake of the April 20th, 2013 Lushan earthquake and received over 230 BTC in just two days, covered widely in the national media.

US Senate Holds Hearing On Bitcoin - November 18, 2013

Announced under the title "Beyond Silk Road: Potential Risks, Threats, and Promises of Virtual Currencies," hope for the U.S. Government panel's discussion is dim among the Bitcoin community leading up to the hearing. As the proceedings commence, however, many of the panelists and Senators agree that Bitcoin holds great promise. The general consensus is summed up by Jennifer Shasky Calvery, Director of the U.S. Government's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), who testified, “We want to operate in a way that does not hinder innovation.”

Dread Pirate Roberts Arrested - October 1, 2013

Following a trail of clues left carelessly across the internet, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (in conjunction with other agencies) manages to identify the alleged operator of the dark web marketplace, which saw most of its sales in illicit drugs. Ross Ulbricht, claimed by the FBI to be the site's founder, Dread Pirate Roberts, is arrested in a San Francisco Public Library and charged with narcotics trafficking, computer hacking, money laundering and engaging in a “continuing criminal enterprise.” About 30,000 BTC of the Silk Road's alleged bitcoin holdings are seized at the time, and an additional 144,000 BTC from DPR's private holdings are swept up three weeks later.

The business-to-business bitcoin exchange had been reliant on the relatively new Internet Archive Federal Credit Union to hold its clients' deposits in regulation-compliant, insured accounts.

DHS Seizure Warrant Against Mt. Gox - May 14, 2013

When Mt. Gox opened an American bank account with Wells Fargo, President and CEO Mark Karpelès answered “no” to the questions, “Do you deal in or exchange currency for your customer?” and “Does your business accept funds from customers and send the funds based on customers’ instructions (Money Transmitter)?” The U.S. Government thinks otherwise. With the warrant signed, Homeland Security Investigations seizes $2,915,507.40 from an account owned by a Mt. Gox subsidiary that was used to process payments to and from U.S. customers, and the future of Bitcoin's legal status becomes ever more uncertain.

Increased Trading Volume Breaks Mt. Gox - April 10, 2013

Originally thought to be a Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack on the largest bitcoin exchange, the great influx of traders on the heels of Cyprus's bailout announcement overwhelms Mt. Gox's servers, causing trades to stutter and fail. Speculative concerns about the exchange's hiccups feed a powerful panic-sell that saturates the market and drives prices down to pre-rally levels, before rising again a few days later.

Cyprus Bail-In - March 25, 2013

Orchestrated by Cyprus President Nicos Anastasiades, the Eurogroup, the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund, the €10 billion bailout is hoped to fortify the flagging Cypriot economy. Among its conditions, however, is a sizable levy collected from most bank accounts with holdings over the €100,000 cutoff - a serious concern not just for wealthy Cypriots but many internationals, as the nation's favorable policies had made it a popular global tax haven, particularly in Russia. Seeking solutions to preserve their holdings before the bailout's conditions take effect, many of these account holders begin buying bitcoin en masse, driving a price rally through early April that brought the value of one bitcoin from about $80 to over $260.

Bitcoin 0.8 Causes Brief Hard Fork - March 11, 2013

Shaking confidence in Bitcoin and the validity of some transactions, the price briefly plummets and the Mt. Gox exchange temporarily suspends bitcoin deposits. Thanks to a swift and coordinated response by Bitcoin developers, miners, and community members, the fork is resolved within hours after the operators of two large mining pools, Michael Marsee (of BTC Guild) and Marek Palatinus (of slush's pool), honorably forgo some of their accumulated mining rewards in order to downgrade to the previous, compatible version. An updated version, 0.8.1, is released shortly after, containing safeguards to prevent the original problem.

Halving Day - November 28, 2012

In line with the original design for Bitcoin's maturation, the number of coins created to reward miners undergoes its first reduction, beginning the long and gradual process of tapering the amount of new currency entering the economy. These “Halving Days” are scheduled to occur every four years, stepping down the number of new bitcoins generated until the reward reaches 0 in the year 2140, to yield a fixed money supply of 20,999,999.9769 BTC. This pre-programmed limit to inflation is a major driver of the currency's economic controversy, value appreciation and speculation.

Wordpress Accepts Bitcoin - November 15, 2012

In a smart and savvy release, Wordpress explains the decision: “PayPal alone blocks access from over 60 countries, and many credit card companies have similar restrictions. we don’t think an individual blogger from Haiti, Ethiopia, or Kenya should have diminished access to the blogosphere because of payment issues they can’t control. Our goal is to enable people, not block them.” As one of the 25 most popular domains on the web, Wordpress's move paves the way for later retail ventures in Bitcoin.

Bitcoins Savings & Trust Halts Payments - August 17, 2012

Promising consistent weekly “interest” returns of 7% to its creditors, Trendon T.

On August 17, 2012, Pirateat40 announces a halt to the operation, and absconds with deposits estimated between 86,202 and 500,000 BTC.

Mt. Gox Hacked - June 19, 2011

By gaining access to the credentials of an official auditor working for the Mt. Gox bitcoin exchange, a hacker downloads a slightly out-of-date copy of the website's user database, including email addresses and insecurely hashed passwords. Using their newfound administrator-level access to the site, they place countless offers to sell bitcoins that don't exist, falsely deflating prices until the going rate reaches just $0.01 per coin. Mt. Gox reverses the fraudulent transactions and halts trading for seven days to re-secure their systems, and two other large exchanges issue temporary halts while their own security is reviewed. Soon after, a copy of the database is leaked and is used to launch attacks against accounts held by users of the MyBitcoin online wallet service who share the same password on both sites, resulting in thefts of over 4,019 BTC from roughly 600 wallets.

Gawker Publishes Article About The Silk Road - June 1, 2011

The oddity is quickly spotted by Bitcoin developers and community members, and a fixed version of the Bitcoin software is released within hours. By the next day, the corrected blockchain overtakes the exploited one, and Bitcoin is back in normal operation – but not before the market is badly shaken.

What is the Difference Between Litecoin and Bitcoin?

Last updated 2nd April 2014.

In 2009, Satoshi Nakamoto launched bitcoin as the world's first cryptocurrency. The code is open source, which means it can be modified by anyone and freely used for other projects. Many cryptocurrencies have launched with modified versions of this code, with varying levels of success.

Litecoin was announced in 2011 with the goal of being the 'silver' to bitcoin's 'gold'. At the time of writing, Litecoin has the highest market cap of any mined cryptocurrency, after bitcoin.

Here's our guide to show you the crucial difference between bitcoin and litecoin.

At-a-glance differences

Mining differences

Just like bitcoin, litecoin is a crytocurrency that is generated by mining. Litecoin was created in October 2011 by former Google engineer Charles Lee. The motivation behind its creation was to improve upon bitcoin. The key difference for end-users being the 2.5 minute time to generate a block, as opposed to bitcoin's 10 minutes. Charles Lee now works for Coinbase, one of the most popular online bitcoin wallets.

ASIC Mining

For miners and enthusiasts though, litecoin holds a much more important difference to bitcoin, and that is its different proof of work algorithm. Bitcoin uses the SHA-256 hashing algorithm, which involves calculations that can be greatly accelerated in parallel processing. It is this characteristic that has given rise to the intense race in ASIC technology, and has caused an exponential increase in bitcoin's difficulty level.

Litecoin, however, uses the scrypt algorithm – originally named as s-crypt, but pronounced as 'script'. This algorithm incorporates the SHA-256 algorithm, but its calculations are much more serialised than those of SHA-256 in bitcoin. Scrypt favours large amounts of high-speed RAM, rather than raw processing power alone. As a result, scrypt is known as a 'memory hard problem'.

The consequences of using scrypt mean that there has not been as much of an 'arms race' in litecoin (and other scrypt currencies), because there is (so far) no ASIC technology available for this algorithm. However, this is soon to change, thanks to companies like Alpha Technologies, which is now taking preorders.

GPU mining

To highlight the difference in hashing power, at the time of writing, the total hashing rate of the bitcoin network is over 20,000 Terra Hashes per second, while litecoin is just 95,642 Mega Hashes per second.

For the time being, 'state of the art' litecoin mining rigs come in the form of custom PCs fitted with multiple graphics cards (ie: GPUs). These devices can handle the calculations needed for scrypt and have access to blisteringly fast memory built into their own circuit boards.

There was a time when people could use GPU mining for bitcoin, but ASICs have made this method not worth the effort.

Transaction differences

The main difference is that litecoin can confirm transactions must faster than bitcoin. The implications of that are as follows:

• Litecoin can handle a higher volume of transactions thanks to its faster block generation. If bitcoin were to try to match this, it would require significant updates to the code that everyone on the bitcoin network is currently running.
• The disadvantage of this higher volume of blocks is that the litecoin blockchain will be proportionately larger than bitcoin's, with more orphaned blocks.
• The faster block time of litecoin reduces the risk of double spending attacks – this is theoretical in the case of both networks having the same hashing power.
• A merchant who waited for a minimum of two confirmations would only need to wait five minutes, whereas they would have to wait 10 minutes for just one confirmation with bitcoin.

Transaction speed (or faster block time) and confirmation speed are often touted as moot points by many involved in bitcoin, as most merchants would allow zero-confirmation transactions for most purchases. It is necessary to bear in mind that a transaction is instant, it is just confirmed by the network as it propagates.

Verwenden von Bitcoin anonym

Alle Bitcoin-Transaktionen werden in ein public Ledger, genannt die Blockchain gespeichert. Die Daten in jeder dieser Transaktionen umfasst eine Bitcoin-Zahlungsbetrag und die Bitcoin-Adressen des Absenders und des Empfängers (unter anderem). Da jede Transaktion die Bitcoins aus einer vorherigen Transaktion verwendet und die Blockchain öffentliche Daten sind, hat jede Bitcoin-Zahlung eine nachvollziehbare Geschichte, die von jedermann einsehbar sind.

Bitcoin-Adressen sind nicht selbst mit einer Person oder Entität verknüpft. Deshalb ist Bitcoin wird oft als Pseudonyme oder Pseudo-anonyme. Jedoch kann die Identität einer Person eine Bitcoin-Adresse mit anderen Mitteln zugeordnet werden. Sobald was geschieht, ist es möglich, diese Person Transaktionen vorwärts und rückwärts durch die Blockchain-Geschichte zu bestimmen. Eine einzelne Anonymität-Verletzung kann eines Individuums gesamten Bitcoin-Transaktionshistorie aufdecken.

Aber wie ist eine Adresse mit einer Person verbunden? Der Verein tritt am häufigsten, wenn Menschen ihren Namen sowie ihre Bitcoin-Adresse online veröffentlichen. Aber es viele andere Möglichkeiten gibt (werfen Sie einen Blick auf die Top sieben Möglichkeiten Ihre Identität können werden verknüpfte an eure Bitcoin-Adresse). Wenn die Zuweisung vorgenommen wurde, könnte eine Partei mit genügend Entschlossenheit, Zeit und Ressourcen analysieren die Blockchain und bestimmen, wie viele Bitcoins, die eine Person ist, wie sie sie erhalten und wie sie sie ausgeben.

Um Bitcoin anonym zu verwenden, müssen Vorsichtsmaßnahmen ergriffen werden, um zu verhindern, dass Ihre wahre Identität mit Ihrer Transaktionen und Adressen verknüpft wird.

TL; dr; Bitcoin ist nicht anonym — aber es kann anonym genug, wenn Sie vorsichtig sind.

Eine neue Adresse für jede eingehende Transaktion verwenden

Der erste und einfachste Schritt ist eine neue, unbenutzte Adresse für jede eingehende Transaktion zu verwenden. Einfach generieren eine neue Adresse und verwenden es um eine Zahlung zu erhalten hilft der Gesamtsaldo des Ihre Bitcoin-Wallet zu verstecken. Wenn jeder Zahlung erhalten Sie an eine andere Adresse, die Sie besitzen geht, dann die Bitcoins sind verteilt, unter anderem mehrere Adressen, statt in großen pauschal an eine einzelne Adresse gespeichert werden. Dies macht es viel schwieriger für jemanden zu wissen wieviele Bitcoins, die Sie besitzen, da die meisten Bitcoin-Clients nicht öffentlich verraten welche Adressen Sie besitzen, wenn Sie eine Zahlung erhalten.

Jedoch können diese Adressen öffentlich miteinander verknüpft werden, wenn Sie eine Zahlung senden. Wenn der Gesamtbetrag der Transaktion, die Sie senden den Betrag überschreitet, wird Sie an eine einzelne Adresse, dann die Salden der ein paar Ihrer Adressen müssen als Eingaben für den Gesamtbetrag der Transaktion kombiniert werden. Nachdem diese Transaktion in der Blockchain gespeichert ist, können Sie angeben, aber nicht unbedingt beweisen, dass die einzelnen Eingaben Adressen eine Einheit gehörten. Wenn Ihre Identität nicht Ihre Adressen zugeordnet wurde, sollte Ihre Anonymität noch meist sicher sein.

Haben Sie bereits ein paar Transaktionen, die mit Ihrem Namen verbunden, es kann jedoch am besten, starten Sie eine völlig neue Brieftasche, das Verwenden von Bitcoin anonym gewidmet ist, und übertragen Sie Ihre Bitcoins auf die neue Geldbörse von läuft sie durch einen Mixer. Trennen Sie Ihre anonymen Brieftasche und regelmäßige Brieftasche — senden Sie keine Münzen zwischen den beiden ohne einen Mixer.

Auch bemerkenswert ist, dass Bitcoin verbringen Transaktionen immer den vollständigen Betrag in eine Adresse gespeichert. Das heißt wenn Sie 1 Bitcoin von einer Adresse, die 2 Bitcoins enthält senden, die extra 1 Bitcoin werden in der Transaktion enthalten sein, aber zurück zu eine eigene Adressen versendet werden. In der einfachsten Form die Änderung geht zurück zu der ursprünglichen Adresse, aber das hat den großen Nachteil, dass es deutlich sichtbar welche Adresse wird die empfangende Partei gehörte. Aus diesem Grund erstellen die meisten Bitcoin Wallets automatisch neue Adressen ändern, die Reste Ihrer Transaktionen zu erhalten. Diese Adressen ändern kann helfen, Maske, die der Empfänger der Transaktion wirklich war.

TL; dr; Generieren eine neue Adresse für jede Zahlung, die Sie erhalten möchten – es hilft, Ihre Bitcoin-Gesamtsaldo ausblenden.

Thin-Clients und gehostete Brieftaschen zu vermeiden

Fast alle thin Clients Leck, welche Adressen Sie, was einfache Zahlung Überprüfung (SPV) Server besitzen herstellen. Thin-Clients speichern nicht der Blockchain lokal. Stattdessen Abfragen sie einem Einzelserver SPV für die Transaktionen, bei denen die Adressen in Ihrer Brieftasche. Während diese Funktionalität weit mehr ist effizient und schnell als die Blockchain lokal, den Kompromiss-Analyse, die jede Bitcoin-Adresse, die Sie selbst an der SPV-Server übermittelt werden.

Einige thin Clients, wie z. B. Mehrbit, haben die Fähigkeit, mit Bloomfilter um zu helfen, welche Adressen zu verbergen, Sie selbst verlangt zusätzliche Transaktionen, die Ihre Geldbörse betreffen nicht. Jedoch bevorzugt Mehrbit derzeit Effizienz über Datenschutz und keinen Gebrauch von Bloomfilter für Adresse Anonymisierung. Die Electrum thin-Client nicht verwendet Bloomfilter überhaupt, so wie Mehrbit, jedem Server verbinden Sie mit kennt jeder Adresse, die Sie selbst.

Gehostete Kunden sind noch schlimmer in Bezug auf Anonymität. Alle Ihre privaten und öffentlichen Schlüsseln befinden sich auf 3rd-Party, die Server, so ist es trivial, für den Betreiber wissen, welche Bitcoin-Adressen besitzen. Darüber hinaus alle anderen Informationen, die Sie an den Dienst übermittelt haben Ihre Bitcoin-Adressen zugeordnet ist und der Betreiber kann direkt zugegriffen werden.

Eine der Grundlagen der Bitcoin bekommt nicht jeder zu vertrauen. In Bezug auf Anonymität, ist es am besten mit einem vollständigen Bitcoin-Client wie Bitcoin-Qt oder Armory, und die gesamte Blockchain lokal zu speichern.

TL; dr; Thin Clients und gehostete Brieftaschen-Leck Sie unter Einschluss besitzen — verwenden Sie einen vollständigen Client wie Bitcoin-Qt oder Armory statt.

Bitcoin und Ihre IP-Adresse

Wenn Sie eine Transaktion auf Ihrem Computer initiiert, sendet der Bitcoin-Client die erforderlichen Daten an andere Clients, die effektiv Rundfunk die Bitcoin-Übertragung mit dem Netzwerk. Bitcoin nicht der Verkehr, d.h. Ihres Internet Service providers, der Besitzer des öffentlichen WIFI-Hotspots sind verschlüsseln verwenden oder die NSA kann untersuchen Ihre Transaktionen und Ihre Bitcoin-Salden mit geringem Aufwand zu bestimmen. Für anspruchsvolle Dritte ist es durchaus möglich sammeln viele Daten über durchgeführte Transaktionen , die Identität der Bitcoin-Nutzer bei großen zu enthüllen.

Wenn Ihr Bedürfnis nach Anonymität IP Rückverfolgbarkeit entgegenzuwirken rechtfertigt, müssen Sie das Bitcoin-Netzwerk über einen Anonymisierungs-Schicht wie Tor oder ein virtuelles privates Netzwerk (VPN) herstellen.

Erhalten Tor von der offiziellen Website, den Tor-Client installieren und sicherstellen, dass es läuft. Gehen Sie dann zu Ihrem Bitcoin-Client-Netzwerk-Einstellungen und legen Sie die Verbindung zum SOCKS-Proxy, Adresse 127.0.0.1 (auch bekannt als “localhost”) über Port 9050 (der Standardanschluss im Tor) oder Port 9150, (falls Sie das Tor-Browser-Paket installiert haben). Tor ist natürlich langsamer als Ihre direkte Internet-Verbindung, so dass wenn Sie einen vollständigen Client für die Verwendung über Tor einrichten wollen, es wäre eine gute Idee, zuerst den Blockchain ohne Tor herunterladen, und dann Tor nutzen, wenn eine Transaktion zu senden.

Neben Tor ist es auch möglich, eine VPN , Ihre IP-Adresse verbergen. Aber das kommt mit der Bedingung, dass Sie den VPN-Anbieter nicht um zu protokollieren oder offenbaren Ihre Transaktionen vertrauen müssen. Die meisten VPN-Anbieter bieten Konfigurationen oder Anwendungen, die automatisch aller Ihren Internetverkehr über ihren Dienst, weiterleiten so ist es nicht notwendig, zusätzliche Konfigurationen auf Ihre Bitcoin-Client durchführen.

Verwenden Sie eine öffentliche (WIFI) Netzwerk für eine zusätzliche Schicht von Anonymität

Wenn öffentliche WIFI neben dem Tor oder ein VPN verwendet wird, wird eine weitere Ebene der Sicherheit Ihre Anonymität hinzugefügt. Startseite Internet Service Providern sammeln Kunden Namen, Adressen und andere persönlichen Angaben, wenn der Kunde für den Dienst anmeldet. Ihre Identität direkt an Ihre IP-Adresse gebunden ist und welcher Internet traffic Sie über ihre Internet-Verbindung zu generieren.

Öffentliche WIFI erfordert Sie Ihre persönlichen Daten zu einem Internet-Anschluss, zur Verfügung zu stellen keine machen es schwierig für Ihre Aktivität zu Ihnen zurückverfolgt werden. Allerdings gibt es noch andere Dinge zu beachten. Ihre MAC-Adresse wird höchstwahrscheinlich durch den öffentlichen WIFI-Betreiber protokolliert die verwendet werden können, um Ihren Computer zu identifizieren. Die meisten Betriebssysteme können Sie die echte MAC-Adresse deiner Netzwerkkarte Fälschen von generieren und verwenden stattdessen eine zufällige MAC-Adresse. Dies sollte jedes Mal vor dem Anschluss an das öffentliche WIFI-Netzwerk erfolgen. Betrachten Sie auch andere Möglichkeiten, in denen Ihre Identität, Ihre Verbindung wie verknüpft werden kann:

Überwachungskameras im Bereich

unter Verwendung der gleichen WIFI Stelle auf wiederkehrender Basis und von Mitarbeitern erkannt

per Kreditkarte, waren am Standort zu kaufen

Surfen unverschlüsselte Seiten, die Sie haben Ihre persönlichen Daten eingereicht.

Denken Sie daran, es wird empfohlen, alle Ihre öffentliche WIFI-Traffic mit Tor oder ein VPN verschlüsselt zu halten.

TL; dr; Verbergen Ihre Bitcoin-Internet-Verkehr mit Tor und/oder eine VPN. Verwenden Sie öffentliche WIFI als zusätzliche Maßnahme.

Wie man Bitcoins anonym

Es ist, zwar möglich, Bitcoins später brechen die Identität-Kette, die Sie auf den Münzen Links zu anonymisieren ist der beste Weg, um anonym zu bleiben, nicht Ihre Anmeldeinformationen, die in erster Linie im Zusammenhang mit einer Bitcoin-Transaktion.

Kauft man Bitcoins auf einem Exchange-Standort, sind sie zwangsläufig mit Ihrem Namen verknüpft. Die meisten Börsen verlangen, dass Ihre Identität zu überprüfen, durch die Bereitstellung eines Scans Ihrer Regierung-ID. Sie müssen auch Scans von Rechnungen oder Kontoauszügen beweisen Ihrer Anschrift zu bieten. Außerdem akzeptieren viele Börsen nur Landeswährung Überweisungen per Bankkonto oder Kreditkarte, weiter zum Nachweis der Identität sinkt und eine Datenspur, die leicht zu verfolgen. Einmal bieten Ihnen den Austausch eine Auszahlung Bitcoin-Adresse, Ihre neu erworbene Bitcoins, gesendet, dass die Adresse mit Ihren Namen in den Börsen-Datensätzen verknüpft ist. Diese Datensätze konnte geleckt, veröffentlicht oder von Strafverfolgungsbehörden angefordert werden.

TL; dr; Bitcoin-Börsen zu verlangen, Dokumente und Bankkonten, die beweisen, wer Sie sind. Vermeiden Sie sie.

Kaufen Sie Bitcoins in Person

Ihre beste Wette, um Bitcoins auf anonyme Weise zu kaufen ist mit jemand Bitcoins für physischen Cash verkaufen Angesicht zu Angesicht treffen. Es gibt eine Reihe von Websites wo finden Sie Menschen mit zu handeln, aber die populärste Website ist LocalBitcoins. Um anonym zu bleiben, sollten die folgenden Vorsichtsmaßnahmen getroffen werden:

Bieten Sie keine Informationen, die verwendet werden könnte, um Sie zu identifizieren. Bieten Sie nicht Ihr richtiger Name, persönliche e-Mail-Adresse, Telefonnummer oder Postanschrift.

Wenn Sie müssen Ihre Telefonnummer an oder benutzen Sie ein Telefon, um ein Handel Meetup zu koordinieren, erhalten Sie eine Brenner-Telefon. Sie sind billig und können mit Bargeld erworben werden.

Abhängig von Ihren Anforderungen Anonymität empfiehlt es sich, mithilfe von einem anonymen Internet-Anschluss, wie Tor, LocalBitcoins und Ihre Wegwerf-Emailkonto zugreifen.

Einen Verkäufer, der bereit ist für den Handel Bitcoins gegen Bargeld zu finden.

Bewertung des Verkäufers Geschichte und das Feedback, das sie, von anderen Käufern erhalten haben mit neuen Verkäufern tauscht nicht.

In einem gut gefüllten, öffentlichen Ort treffen. Es kann nützlich sein, zu Fuß oder mit dem Fahrrad zu dem Speicherort zu vermeiden, dass Ihr Fahrzeug oder ihre Nummernschild identifiziert. Wenn Sie müssen am Ort und Park entfernt, eine große Distanz zu fahren oder einen Freund-Tropfen Sie aus und holen Sie ab.

TL; dr; Bitcoins in Person von einem fremden mit physischen Cash gekauft sind sehr anonym.

Bitcoins mit Bargeld mit der Post zu kaufen

Anonyme Überweisungen können auch erfolgen durch physischen Bargeld senden, per Post oder mit bestimmten Zahlungsanbieter wie MoneyPak. In diesem Fall wird der Verkäufer eine e-Mail-Adresse und werde Sie erwartet werden, zu verpacken und versenden die Zahlung zu ihnen. Je nach den Bedingungen der Vereinbarung der Verkäufer kann müssen Sie zuerst den Betrag überweisen, oder sie können vereinbaren, um Bitcoins in Treuhandservice zu platzieren. Für zusätzliche Sicherheit können Sie auch das Paket als Einschreiben senden, es zu versichern oder erfordern eine Unterschrift bei Lieferung. Wenn Sie das Paket versichert sind, können Sie erwägen Video / Fotos der Paketinhalt seinen Wert im Falle der Postdienst, Verlust oder Diebstahl des Pakets zu beweisen.

Wenn Sie keine Absenderadresse auf der Verpackung zur Verfügung zu stellen, wird es höchstwahrscheinlich durch die Post für weitere Untersuchung (vielleicht durch Röntgen oder Medikament Hunde) gekennzeichnet. Es empfiehlt sich auch, eine Absenderadresse, die nicht vorhanden ist, zu verwenden, weil das Paket auch markiert werden. Auch, wenn die Sendung nicht zugestellt werden, und kann nicht gesendet werden zurück zu Ihnen, natürlich wird das physische Geld verloren.

Darüber hinaus möchten viele Verkäufer verwenden PGP/GPG Kommunikation verschlüsselt, damit ihre e-Mail-Adresse ist nur für Sie aufgedeckt und nie auf den Dienst-Servern im nur-Text gespeichert. Es kann die Auszahlung zu PGP/GPG auf Ihrem Computer einrichten, werben, dass Sie es unterstützen und Ihren öffentlichen Schlüssel bieten.

TL; dr; Bitcoins über Bargeld per Post gekauft sind etwas anonym, obwohl Ihre Absender-Adresse (falls vorhanden) an den Verkäufer bekannt sein wird.

Kaufen Sie Bitcoins, von einem Geldautomaten

Mehr und mehr Bitcoin Geldautomaten erscheinen. In einigen Ländern Fragen sie für eine Vielzahl von Informationen zur Identifizierung, bevor Sie können alle Münzen kaufen, aber andere sind vollständig anonymisiert und einfach generieren eine Papier-Brieftasche oder Bitcoins an eine Adresse Ihrer Wahl nach der Fütterung sie etwas Bargeld zu übertragen. Finden Sie solch ein Bitcoin-ATM, wären sie eine gute Wahl erhalten Sie Bitcoins, anonym und ohne viel Aufwand, auch wenn Sie über dem aktuellen Marktpreis zahlen müssen — aber sie sind selten.

Online-Arbeit

Eine andere Möglichkeit, Bitcoins anonym ist, mit online-Arbeit zu verdienen. Gibt es aber viel eher schattigen Stellenangebote, immer üben Sorgfalt bei der Arbeit und muss anonym bleiben Annahme es muss natürlich nie Ihre wahre Identität zu Ihrer Arbeitgeber zu offenbaren.

Reddit’s Jobs4Bitcoins Subreddit ist ein guter Ort, um nach Jobs zu suchen, die Bitcoins bezahlen. Stellenangebote mit [HIRING] gekennzeichnet werden soll, und es liegt an Ihnen, den Kontakt zu machen, wenn Sie etwas finden, die Sie mögen. Sie können natürlich auch Ihre marktgängigen werben Fähigkeiten mit einem Beitrag, achten Sie darauf, es mit [FORHIRE] zu markieren.

Coinality ist eine gute Bitcoin-Baustelle hat eine Menge Arbeit-Angebote, die nach Art der Beschäftigung, Kategorie, Zahlungs- und Lage gefiltert werden können. Die meisten Jobangebote auf Coinality sind Technologie und internetbezogene und viele können man online von überall in der Welt. Du kannst auch Ihren Lebenslauf um potentielle Arbeitgeber zu gewinnen.

Es gibt auch Dutzende von Websites, die winzige Mengen besuchen Websites und beobachten anzeigen bezahlen, aber sie sind in der Regel nicht, sich die Zeit und Mühe.

TL; dr; Anonyme Bitcoins erhalten Sie durch die Arbeit für sie. Aber vermeiden, Jobs, die Sie Videos ansehen oder klicken Sie auf Links zu bezahlen – sie werden nicht viel bezahlen.

Mining Mints frisch Bitcoins, die noch nicht existierten vor und ist deshalb eine anonyme Möglichkeit Münzen zu erhalten. Der große Nachteil ist, dass Bergbau von etwas, die jeder Standardhardware zu einem hart umkämpften Markt bringen wo nur spezialisierte Mining Hardware entwickelt hat (so genannte ASICs) hoffen kann, um einen Gewinn zu generieren.

Solche Bitcoin-Bergleute sind nicht leicht zu bekommen, vor allem, wenn Sie auf der Suche nach einer, die Sie mehr als seine Preisvorstellung ergeben wird. Die Schwierigkeit zu mir Bitcoins steigt kontinuierlich, durch das Netzwerk Selbstregulierung Mechanismus, und nicht selten Bitcoin Bergleute können nur auf Vorbestellung, die mehr als oft nicht erwiesen hat sich eine Enttäuschung für Mining-Enthusiasten gekauft werden. Im Allgemeinen sind die Chancen zu mehr Bitcoins mit Bergbau als einfach kaufen schlank unübertroffen, es sei denn, Sie in eine große Bergbauunternehmen investieren.

Wenn Sie noch erwägen, gehen auf diesem Weg wegen der Anonymität, machen Sie Ihre Hausaufgaben und erforschen Bitcoins Schwierigkeit Aufstieg und ähnliche ROI (Return on Investment) Berechnungen für verfügbare Bergbau Hardware. Auch besonderes Augenmerk auf den Ruf der Hardwarehersteller und Lieferanten.

TL; dr; Mining ist eine gute Möglichkeit, Bitcoins anonymisiert, aber es erfordert eine große Vorabinvestitionen und es gibt keine Garantie, Sie verdienen Ihr Geld zurück.

Reinigung Ihrer befleckten Bitcoins

Wenn Sie Bitcoins, die bereits in sein haben irgendwie behaftet mit einem Link, die Sie identifizieren könnte, es ist möglich, diesen Link zu brechen und die Münzen wieder effektiv zu anonymisieren. Wenn es richtig gemacht, wird nicht zukünftige Transaktionen ab diesem Zeitpunkt nicht mehr an Sie angeschlossen werden.

Zu diesem Zweck gibt es Mischer (auch bekannt als Trinkgläser). Das grundlegende Konzept ist, dass Sie die Münzen senden, die Sie in den Mixer, anonymisiert haben sendet wiederum wieder den gleichen Betrag abzüglich einer Gebühr an eine neue Adresse, die Sie bereitstellen möchten. Die Münzen erhalten Sie zurück aus einem großen Pool von der Misch-Dienst verwaltet werden und sollte idealerweise keine Verbindung zu Ihren ursprünglichen Münzen haben.

Der große Fehler dieses Konzepts ist die zentrale Natur. Du musst den mixen ab, um zurück zu geben, Ihre Münzen zu vertrauen, und außerdem müssen Sie darauf vertrauen, dass sie Aufzeichnungen über die durchgeführten mischen Transaktionen nicht einhalten. Besonders der letzte Punkt ist schwierig, da Sie für bestimmte nie wissen können, was sie mit den Daten tun. Wenn der Mixer wirklich keine Transaktionsdatensätze nicht, haben sie keine Möglichkeit, es zu beweisen. Auf der anderen Seite, wenn sie nicht oder sogar gezwungen sind, mit der hand über ihre Daten, haben Sie keine Möglichkeit zu wissen.

Eine wichtige Verbesserung gegenüber zentralen Mischer sind so genannte CoinJoin Transaktionen. CoinJoin bündelt eine Reihe von Transaktionen von mehreren Benutzern gemeinsam in einer Weise, die es unmöglich macht, mit absoluter Sicherheit sagen, die wie viele Münzen an welche Adresse senden. Das Beste daran ist, dass CoinJoin kein Vertrauen in einen Dritten, weil es ausschließlich zwischen den Teilnehmern durchgeführt werden kann und zu keinem Zeitpunkt sind Ihre Münzen in Gefahr gestohlen werden.

Bitmixer ist ein zentraler Mischpult Service. Es können Sie eine oder mehrere forward-Adressen angeben, wo erhalten Sie Ihre gemischten Münzen. Sie können auch angeben, die Verzögerung und die prozentuale Verteilung zu den Adressen den Prozess weiter anpassen. Wenn Sie mit dem Setup fertig sind, Sie die Eingabe-Adresse und einen speziellen Code erhalten. Der Code wird verhindern Sie immer eigene Münzen von vorherigen Mischungen, wenn Sie Bitmixer mehr als einmal verwenden. Bitmixer der Gebühren betragen 0,5 % plus einen zusätzlichen 0.0005 BTC für jede forward Adresse verwendet.

Bitcoin Nebel ist ein zentrales Mischpult, das in Form von einem Tor versteckt-Dienst vorhanden ist. Access der real Website müssen Sie ein Tor-fähigen Browser. Sie müssen ein Konto zuerst erstellen, an die Sie die Münzen senden, die Sie kombinieren möchten. Dann können Sie anfordern, dass Auszahlungen und die Website automatisch eine Reihe von Auszahlungen mit unterschiedlichen Beträgen und Verzögerungen randomize werden. Die Gebühr ist auch nach dem Zufallsprinzip zwischen 1 % und 3 % pro Einlage.

TL; dr; Bitcoin-Mischer können helfen, Ihre persönlichen Daten vor bestimmten Bitcoins aufheben durch tauschen Ihre Münzen mit anderen Münzen oft über.

DarkWallet

Bitcoin ist immer noch eine ziemlich neue Technologie und versuche, die anonyme Nutzung mit hoher Benutzerfreundlichkeit ermöglichen sind noch jünger. Ein vielversprechendes Projekt in dieser Hinsicht ist DarkWallet, der darauf abzielt, ein Bitcoin-Wallet für die Massen zu sein, die Anonymität und Privatsphäre so mühelos wie möglich macht. DarkWallet wurde kürzlich als alpha-Software und noch eignet sich nicht für die Verwendung mit echten Bitcoins bis weitere Test- und Entwicklungszwecken abgeschlossen wurde. Das Endziel ist die Schaffung eine Brieftasche, die auf CoinJoin Transaktionen, stealth-Adressen (die helfen um den Empfänger zu verstecken, auch wenn die stealth-Adresse veröffentlicht hat) und Zugriff über Proxy Netze basiert. DarkWallet wird als eine Erweiterung für Chrome und Firefox verfügbar.

One of the unofficial mascots for Bitcoin [1] .

The connection between Bitcoin and the Alpaca likely originated from the February 10, 2011 post on Slashdot which described various goods and services could be purchased with bitcoins [2] . Because the slashdot crowd has a tendency to be critical (they summarized Apple's 2001 iPod announcement as "lame", for instance [3] ) or humorous ("Do alpacas really wear socks?" [4] ) the meme involving the Alpaca was born.

The mention in Slashdot included a link to the page for a merchant, Grass Hill Alpacas, that sold Alpaca products for bitcoin [5] . He used that transaction in a subsequent article comparing using Bitcoin as a medium of exchange versus the coincidence of wants that a barter exchange suffers [6] . Shortly after receiving the media mentions, most of the merchant's product offerings had sold out for the remainder of the season.

Bitcon's lead developer Gavin Andresen tweeted that he had purchased wool socks with bitcoins.

In March, 2011 the What is Bitcoin? video described Alpaca socks as one of the products Bitcoins could buy.

The reference to Alpaca socks has since been mentioned in quite a number of blog posts, news reports and videos occurring in the months since [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , and [11] .

Bitcoin wird größte Spekulationsblase aller Zeiten und überholt sogar niederländische Tulpenmanie

Laut den Analysten Howard Wang und Robert Wu von Convoy Investments ist der Bitcoin-Preis "in diesem Jahr um mehr als das 17-fache und in den letzten drei Jahren um das 64-fache gestiegen und hat den Preisanstieg der niederländischen Tulpe in einem gleich großen Zeitraum übertrumpft".

Wang und Wu veröffentlichten vor einem Monat ein Vermögensblasendiagramm, das viral ging, weil es auch den Bitcoin aufführte. Es zeigte, dass dieser unter den berühmtesten Vermögensblasen der Welt nur noch der niederländischen Tulpenzwiebelmanie aus dem 17. Jahrhundert hinterherhinkt. Anfang dieser Woche haben die Analysten ihr Ranking jedoch aktualisiert. Sie wiesen nun nach, dass sich der Preis der digitalen Währung in nur einem Monat mehr als verdoppelt hat. Auf diese Weise habe der Bitcoin das globale Spekulationsblasenrennen endgültig gewonnen und die einstigen Tulpen überholt.

Wenn wir einen dramatischen Anstieg der Marktpreise für ein bestimmtes Gut sehen, gibt es oft einen internen Kampf zwischen den beiden Arten von Investoren, die es unter uns gibt",

sagte Wang in Bezug auf die wichtigsten Triebkräfte bei der Bildung von Spekulationsblasen.

Zwei Arten von Investoren im Widerstreit

Der eine ist nach Ansicht des Analysten der wertorientierte Anleger, der sich fragt, ob der Preis für die Investition nicht zu hoch sei. Die zweite Investoren-Art ist der Impuls-Anleger, den die Frage interessiert, ob er nicht einen Trend verpasst.

Ich glaube, dass die Ausgewogenheit dieser beiden Ansätze, sowohl unter uns selbst als auch auf einem Markt, letztendlich die Neigung zu blasenartigem Verhalten bestimmt",

zitiert das Portal ZeroHedge den Analysten.

Während die Auswirkungen des Tulpenwahnsinns verheerend waren, sind die Bitcoin-Gläubigen der Meinung, dass die Rally der Kryptowährung noch lange nicht zu Ende sei. Viele bezweifeln, dass sie überhaupt kollabieren wird, zumindest werde dies nicht in absehbarer Zeit der Fall sein. Der Investment-Guru Michael Novogratz sagte zu CNBC, dass der Wert des Bitcoin "Ende 2018 leicht bei 40.000 US-Dollar liegen könnte".

Experten: Korrektur würde Bitcoin nicht dauerhaft zerstören

Novogratz, der ein Viertel seines Nettovermögens in Kryptowährungen investiert hat, fügte hinzu, dass der Preis des Bitcoin-Rivalen Ethereum sich auch noch verdreifachen könne.

Der Bitcoin-Unternehmer William Mook sprach mit RT über die Frage, ob die Kryptowährung eine Blase sei und wies darauf hin, dass das zwar tatsächlich sein könnte, eine Korrektur jedoch nicht tödlich sein werde, da der Wert der Kryptowährung "nicht dauerhaft verloren gehen kann".

Die so genannte Tulpenmanie war eine Periode im niederländischen Goldenen Zeitalter des 17. Jahrhunderts, in der die Vertragspreise für einige der - kurz zuvor eingeführten und zur Mode gewordenen - Tulpenzwiebeln stark in die Höhe schossen. Auf dem Höhepunkt der Tulpenmanie übertrafen die Preise einiger einzelner Zwiebeln das Zehnfache des Jahreseinkommens eines Handwerkers. Im Februar 1637 brachen die Preise dann jedoch dramatisch ein. Die Tulpenblase wird allgemein als die erste erfasste Spekulationsblase angesehen. Der Begriff "Tulpenmanie" wird heute oft metaphorisch in Bezug auf jede große Wirtschaftsblase verwendet, in der die Preise der Vermögenswerte von deren eigentlichem substanziellen Wert abweichen.
