Are Schnorr signatures expected to be included in 0.14?
Schnorr signatures are the next step after SegWit to improve scalability and also privacy. But unlike SegWit, it's difficult to find a concrete roadmap for when it will be ready. Some developers have implied that it will be ready next year. It would be nice to know when it should be expected.

Where to buy bitcoin miners other than eBay.
Look to start mining bitcoins as a hobby. I am ideally looking to spend between $1000 to $2000 on them but most places i search i hear of only bad things, scams and such.
If someone could give me a few websites/companies that sell machines that aren't scam sites. I also would be using my credit card to make the purchase in case of any issues that way.
I have seen bitmain.com who make Antminer R4 and other stuff but are sold out. If anyone could give me some direction on who is a little reputable that would be great.

New mining rig
Hi guys me and my mates are really close to start our own mining rig. Our plan is to build an 91Th/s rig. But we are a bit insecurr about the bitcoin difficulty. So we are really thinking about mining litecoin. Any thought of profits and costs here? Litecoin is about 3$ a piece but how many do you get per block average??? In comparison against the bitcoins average 20 (never mined before)

Local Bitcoins worldwide volume reaches a new all-time high on record USD volumes.
Malaysia, Brazil, Venezuela, and Sweden also saw record highs.
When all currency volumes are converted to USD, nearly 16 million USD in value are now exchanged each week.
Paxful also continues to see all time highs almost every week, purportedly from backpage.com demand. Anyone have any other insights on paxful volume?

Is Having to Scale Bitcoin Using Other Layers Really THAT Bad??
I just listened to the latest Let's Talk Bitcoin podcast and both hosts seemed to be pretty down about the fact that the entire world will never be able to have 100% of their transactions on the main chain as was originally envisioned. Is that really such a bad thing though?
Isn't the Internet kind of the same? Multiple layers of an onion that all piece together to form something that the end user never has to think about using. Isn't that what Bitcoin would basically become if we build other protocols on top of or in conjunction with Bitcoin? So long as these layers don't involve central points of failure or trust I don't really see why it's such a bad thing.
If we build these layers so that they still embody the same principles of not harming decentralization or fungibility it really shouldn't matter right?
Help me see what I'm missing here in this debate please.

In crypto we do ICO and then traders buy it.
But how does it work with USD. Like the government print a lot of money but how did they first distributed it and who did they gave the money to?

Sold my last bits of Ethereum for Bitcoin
I have bought a little portion of Ethereum through the presale some time ago. Today I've sold the last part of my Ethereum-stash for Bitcoin.
Why? Ethereum did not convince me. It didn't convince me in the beginning (pre-sale was hyped as well, I took a small risk) and it doesn't do it now:
The main client needs to sync and takes a long time if you don't do it regularly. That is, if it does sync at all (it got stuck a million times now)
The terminology - what's this gas anyway? - and handling is way to difficult, even when I'm not a complete noob in the land of cryptocurrencies.
I don't see the use. I can see the many uses for Bitcoin, mainly as a ledger registering some sort of unchangeable truth. It might be slow and heavy, but it's decent enough to build upon. Ethereum has seen some hardforks now, mainly after attacks of some sort, changing the 'truth' of the ledger in a way. It doesn't seem stable at all having so many issues. It also doesn't solve a real problem now, as far as I can see.
I hope I haven't made a mistake and got rid of my chance of becoming a millionaire. At least I got some good bucks out of it now.
Hooray for Bitcoin!

I just paid a taxi driver in Manchester my fair in bitcoin.
He did not take credit card. He drove me to an ATM at gas station, but it was out of order. The gas station and not hotel I was staying at did any have provide cash back so I convinced him to download breadwallet and I paid him his fare in bitcoin. First time I have ever used bitcoin in such a circumstance, but really shows the potential. The driver had heard about Bitcoin before so wasn't completely new to it and he also transfers a lot of money because of family from Africa. Hopefully one more believer.
