Hello my dear forum member.
Your admin Secco writing. Welcome to this new edition of the Bitcoin Garden Newsletter. It has been some time since the last newsletter, so I'm back with a new edition to keep you up to date with the latest happenings in crypto and on the forum.
BITCOIN: Strong than ever. On March 2, 2017 the price of 1 bitcoin surpassed the spot price of an ounce of gold for the first time. Price broke above the November 2013 high of $1,242 and then traded above $1,290. The number of transactions is well above the blocksize capacity causing delays and increases in network fees. At the time of writing bitcoin price is a bit under $1,200 and the mempool reports +30,000 unconfirmed transactions. If you're having problems getting your transactions confirmed this post may help you:

https://bitcoingarden.org/forum/index.php?topic=12764.0BITCOINGARDEN BIRTHDAY! Almost time to celebrate! Bitcoin Garden Forum will be 3 years old on 19 Mar 2017. It has been a pleasure to serve the crypto community during these years. Bitcoin Garden is quickly becoming the 2nd most important crypto forum worldwide after Bitcointalk. I'm so proud of that and I would like to thank you all members for their great support!
GIVEAWAYS AND PROMOS: Giveaway season on the forum sees no pause. Lots of free coins there awaits your claim! The hottest coins of the moment appear to be InsaneCoin (INSANE) and Espers (ESP). InsaneCoin has a Permanent Twitter Bonanza Giveaway that you can claim every day. It has been running since 17 November 2016 and the thread already reached 131 pages of requests. 2 more INSANE giveaways are rewarding users who are up to support their C-CEX and MERCATO-X exchange listing. Bittzy78, our friendly and tireless global moderator is running the 4th one: "Insane Coin Price Support & Weekly Giveaway" and Coin Trader is running the 5th one. A special thank you to the Insane Coin Team, very few coins have donated so much to the community.
ESP has two running giveaway campaigns, courtesy of gawlea. One is for MERCATO-X listing and the other one for social media support on Twitter. BTCMACROECON is also running a free airdrop campaign of its ETH Token that you may want to check. Beside of getting some free coins, participating in the campaign is extremely educational as it allows you to get skilled in how the Ethereum network works.
TIP OF THE MONTH: If you run a business or you're a team member of a coin and you have a thread for your product/service/coin make sure to activate notifications for new posts in your thread. This will save you a lot of time and hassle. You will no longer need to check your threads for new posts, indeed you'll get a mail when there's a new post, so you can promptly answer it. In the Internet era, it is vital getting back to user asap! To activate (or deactivate) the notification simply click the NOTIFY button at the very top (or very bottom) of each thread. You can check and manage all your notifications in your control panel (profile/modify profile/notifications).
