If you guys are referring to the OnePlus One for not having GPS, then you're wrong. According to the official website it does have GPS

I am sure these new and already existing companies that are releasing very fair priced high end smartphones are on a moment going to force Apple and Samsung, HTC, Sony to come down in price quite a bit.
Cheaper smartphones are becomming very popular since their specs are the same/better than the current flagship devices.
Here iPhone 5S 16GB cost €699 that's around $960 !!! and then there is the iPhone 5C 8GB at €549 which is $750 !!

Have you seen Ubuntu Edge? (but I cannot find a way to buy it now ...) I have read about it, the phone itself is quite ugly. I would rather install ubuntu on my smartphone myself. Android is perfectly fine, but Samsung, HTC, LG, Sony are ruining the android experience with their heavy skins on top of android. I will definitely play with ubuntu once it possible to install.

For me personally at the moment renting is the best option. I never buy things and pay later, or paying several € per month for something. I will only consider buying a house when I have 100% of the money to buy the house in one go.
There are some people that I know that have €50000 debt because they bought a house and 10 years later they lost their job, and now are suffering from piling bills, a house that no one will buy, and also struggling to buy food. Every cent that they have will be used for paying their mortgage, which can take a lifetime with their income nowadays.
Best thing in life is to have 0% debt which is very hard, but it is possible for sure.

In a nutshell :
People with zero to low holdings are mostly the people that say "I have this, and I have that" while infact they don't have anything.
People with large holdings mostly don't say anything about what they own, how much Bitcoins, how much value in $$$

One + One, is a good phone with good value for money, and like the Nexus 5 One plus isn't making money from it, now that's said, I doubt the experience is as refined as on lets say an HTC One, the built quality and feel isn't to begin with.
But anyways if the software is good enough, this phone could be a great alternative for those with a limited budget, the only thing is that you need to be invited to be able to buy one, which anyways mean that supplies are so damn low
At the moment you need to be invited to get your hands on one, but not long after that you will be able to buy it from the stores in your country. It runs Android v 4.4.2 with custom cyanogenmod 11s There is a quick look video on youtube where a famous tech reviewer compare the OnePlus one with the Galaxy S5 and Oppo smartphone. Search for oneplus one in youtube, and you will see the video from Android Authority popping up.

Not a big surprise. Chinese government will go much further than this. There will be one day that Huobi, OKcoin, BTC China, can't do business anymore in China due to this sanctions. Perhaps in 2014 or early 2015 they will open their doors to worldwide customers. Imagine 0% trading fees

We will see this kind of requests more often from exchanges, they can't do anything about it. Governments are forcing exchanges to do this.

The crisis in Ukraine is still going on, and it seems to only get worse with the day. Is it possible that we will get the same effect in the Bitcoin price as when Cyprus was in a big crisis ? And if that happen, is it any good???

Is this your company detail?
Yes, that is correct. Well, I hope I have got it wrong, if so, I'm sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused. I do like Mintpal, in my opninion it's one of the best Altcoin exchanges as in how the site looks and perform. The situation that we were talking about made me not use Mintpal anymore, but I believe you when you say it's not possible. So I must have overlooked something.
No worries, based on some of the tickets recently, I think it is quite frequent that people get confused. We are quite open when things do actually go wrong, which they certainly have done in the time that we've been around, but we must also defend ourselves against things that we do not believe to be true at all. I completely understand that, and good job with how Mintpal is growing. Good luck with everything!

I trade Bitcoins/Altcoins using various exchanges for quite a while now, and never seen such a thing. I understand that to you I might sound like I am not telling the truth. But it did happen. I had NO BTC in my balance, I only had Bitcoin Scrypt, once I saw that I had BTC in my balance, I checked the BTCS/BTC market, and I see -> my sell order is bought by some one <- And yes it was MY sell order......
Then after browsing through the site my BTC balance was gone, and my sell order was again open........
It could be that the page at that moment showed wrong information because the page was not updated/refreshed correctly.
But as I said, it was very weird, never seen such a thing.
Again, it would have shown up in the Your Trades table if this was true, so I'm afraid you've got it wrong. If it was just in the Recent Market History as you said, it does not mean it was your trade as multiple people can have an order at the same price. I can tell you that it is is simply not possible for a trade to rollback and we have never reversed a single trade. A surprising number of people get confused like this and write things without being sure that it happened. Well, I hope I have got it wrong, if so, I'm sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused.

Link doesn't work. Can you please update?
The link does work for me, which is strange. Search for companieshouse and use their web check functionality. This IS true, it was with Bitcoin Scrypt. My Bitcoin Scrypt sell order was bought by someone, it also showed the transaction in the "Recent Market History" section. Looks like a reset of some kind....?? No reason for me to lie about it. I'm not hating on Mintpal in any way. Just saying it was very weird.
No, it's not possible for it to reset like that. If it was in the Recent Market History, it does not mean it was your trade, someone else might have set an order at the same price and was ahead of you in the queue. You would have seen a popup in the corner if it was your trade. I trade Bitcoins/Altcoins using various exchanges for quite a while now, and never seen such a thing.

You say satoshi owns 985KBTC what wallet contains the largest balance? Or is it spreaded into wallets with each lets say 100BTC or so
Like, majority of the coins mined in 2009 are satoshi. Each block goes to a different address. So there are thousands of blocks of 50 BTC that were mined in 2009 to 2010 and are unspent to this day. That's a million bitcoins that will probably never be spent. I wish I had the feeling of knowing that I have 985K BTC

Very interesting to read, keep this kind of topics comming. Can't wait for the next one I thought I'd leave this here, in case anyone had the same question: You say satoshi owns 985K BTC what wallet contains the largest balance? Or is it spreaded into wallets with each lets say 100 BTC or so

Prepare yourself for next month, another "ban"

I stopped using mintpal since I once saw something really strange. I had an open sell order, and I saw some one bought my sell order and some of the sell orders above me. And this all was visible in the transaction history, where you can see the buys & sells that people made. Then suddenly everything changed, my sell order and other sell orders that were bought by some one now again appeared as open sell order section, like nothing has happened. This is very weird, my coins were sold, I had the BTC in my balance, then my BTC balance was gone, and I had my coins back. This is simply not possible and not true. Looks like the haters are out in full force today trying to spread FUD. [/quote] This IS true, it was with Bitcoin Scrypt.
