I'm in boys, let's ride the wave to success!

How much is the bounty for the signature campaign by the way? It gives an example that uses a 300,000 wave bounty, but I haven't found anywhere else that confirms it.

Any chance we could do it in thirds? I'm a little shy of .65 currently

Can we purchase in portions smaller than 560? I may be interested in buying 100 or so LISK.

Shit man. Had a sell order in place on my trump and didn't hear about v2 until the pump had already taken place. Oh well, trump was good to me, even if it's currently valued at 5x what I sold for

Moon confirmed? This looks pretty damn convincing to me. Satan is a meme man.

I JUST BOUGHT IN BOYS

BELIEVE IN THE MEMEEEEE

I'll send out an email when I get home tonight!

Oh, ok. So it is just a matter of when all the funding has been donated?

This is an incredibly ambitious project... I like it. I'm not usually one to donate for these types of things, but I see potential in Elastic. Put down .05 Is there a timeframe as to when the project will go live?

That's because voting is promoting the problem. None of those sites are profitable. They are all ponzi scams. That's what cloud mining is. The lack of votes shows that a majority of the community doesn't believe in these get-rich-quick scams.

It's true that there are people like this all throughout the world, but the Bitcoin community is very saturated with people who have a severe lack of judgement. You might know a couple of people like that in the real world- but it's more than just a couple in the community. It's all the people who jumped on caught up in the price fluctuations looking for a quick road to riches.

And in regards to the sex tape, the payment was legitimate. Gawker was participating in some very scummy business practices, and refused prior orders to take down the video. They deserve to pay the settlement, they are a very douchey company.

The best and easiest way, by far, is using purse.io. On Purse, users can either place Amazon orders with a Bitcoin deposit, or purchase the orders of others through Amazon. The gift is sent to the orderer and his Bitcoin transfered to the Amazon buyer. You will not get 1:1 on your funds, but you can get 80%+ very easily. Downside is that Bitcoins will not be received until order has shipped, but selling manually takes time as well.

Regardless, both forms of gambling are very unsafe. "Safe" and "gamble" are contradictory. To have a safe gamble is an oxymoron and impossible. If a bet is safe it is not a gamble.

The sad thing is, I don't think a lot of people in this thread realize he is trolling, and some don't even see the problem with his behavior. This disconnect with reality is ultimately the problem with Bitcoin and the Bitcoin community. The behavior projected by OP is not healthy by any means, yet a lot of people here don't realize that, and even project similar behaviors. It's one of the major factors that contributes to Bitcoin's current piss poor reputation.

If the coin already exists, it is already not the next Ethereum. The next Ethereum will have to have similar hype pre-launch as this Ethereum does.

These guys aren't innocent... it's a shitty thing for the Venezuelan government to do, but they were breaking laws, and the miners knew this. Holding foreign currencies (including Bitcoin or USD) is illegal in Venezuela. They knew that what they were doing could be grounds for legal troubles. They should have been using a VPN and done their mining more covertly, like the other miners in the country.

I'm not supporting Venezuela or damning Bitcoin users in Venezuela. I'm only pointing out that these two were not innocent.

"Have you ever wanted to send money anywhere in the world as seamlessly as sending an email? Yeah, you can do that. Look into Bitcoin."

I think the get rich quick or world revolution arguments are stale and put off a negative perception of Bitcoin. In 20 seconds, the best bet is telling them there is something that makes their lives simpler. People know to be hesistant of something that sounds too good to be true, but they also like making their lives easier and will actively invest in making every day life simpler and more seamless.

Passwords lost, hardware destroyed, sent to wrong address, virus wipes memory, etc. etc. There are a lot of ways to lose your Bitcoin.

In reference to OP- yes, I do think the number of available Bitcoins is decreasing, but not in the sense you imply. I don't think more Bitcoins are being destroyed than created, but I do think more Bitcoins are being hoarded than created. A large, large portion of Bitcoins out there are being hodl'd- these Bitcoins see a velocity of 0, and for all intents and purposes, are unavailable to the community and economy.

For a niche camsite that caters to a relatively small demographic (i.e. Bitcoiners) XOtika.TV has quite the selection to offer! There are many active girls on the site and always someone different to watch. Love the addition of gambling opportunities as well. Keep up the good work!

No, mining isn't profitable for the vast majority of the population. It's so competitive that being a profitable miner relies on many different variables: Cheap electricity, cooler climate, adequate start up investment and access to facilities, to name a few. For the average Bitcoiner that says "Hey I want to try mining", putting in a couple of Bitcoins on mining hardware will result in a net loss in profit.
