Try converting to a liquid and not highly volatile altcoin that is high enough in value that you won't be penalized significantly % wise if you cross the spread,

and still low enough in satoshi terms that the withdrawal fees will be economical.

One example is TRX, its fast transactions also insure that the risk of market fluctuation will be minimal...

Maybe this the reason behind why ETH price drop from $190 to 125 I think so, because of Jeff wilcke moved 90k eth from his wallet to karken crypto exchange on 25th of December and now panic sellers start to dumpling the eth I thought this the best time to buy eth before bull market comes into crypto market.

This guy is just taking advantage of this news to introduce a new website that he thinks is better than youtube, But the problem, is it really better? Youtube has a long way to go and they have huge traffic, which can lead to a few small flaws. Is a new website capable and powerful enough to maintain without any similar errors? Anyway, YouTube is the best place

Is options trading that influential to the Bitcoin or cryptocurrency market that it could spell trouble for the whole cryptocurrency market in the coming months? I don't think so. That's pretty blowing up the significance of options trading. Was option trading the trend when the cryptocurrencies reached their ATH way back in the late 2017 and early 2018? Nope. Exchanges were offering spot trading and a few are offering leverage trading. Now we have options and contracts trading. But they are still the minor players in the market.

YouTube has reinstated hundreds of crypto-currency related channels after admitting it had removed them "in error".

A wave of YouTubers received notifications that their videos were in breach of the platform's terms of service earlier this week.

The move appeared to target smaller channels and publishers that focused on Bitcoin and crypto-currency content.

The Google-owned video sharing platform has since apologised for the mistake.

YouTube said in a statement that it had "made the wrong call" and confirmed that any content mistakenly removed would be restored.

"With the massive volume of videos on our site, sometimes we make the wrong call," it said.

"When it's brought to our attention that a video has been removed mistakenly, we act quickly to reinstate it."

It said there had been no changes to its polices, and insisted there would be "no penalty" to any channels that were affected by the incident.

Germans are queuing at Degussa store to buy #gold in Köln. From Jan. 1, 2020, the limit to buy gold anonymously drops from €10,000 down to €2,000. Only two years ago the limit was €15,000.

I always wonder how could an economy operate and run without taxes from cryptocurrencies. How could a government obtain taxes from people when people are completely utilizing a currency that is not supporting taxes. Would it be really good if we completely have our fiats converted to crypto? For me, there's always a way if our intention is good. We cannot really deny how government is providing regulation that is mainly for the betterment of us despite of some issues regarding corruption and frauds.

For me, the way we could still make it possible is to establish a local exchange wherein, if we convert our money to crypto, these local exchange could already have the portion intended for the tax of each transactions.

HSBC has no choice but to comply with what China government wants! Freezing an account of a consumer is not a decision what banks love to take! Because they can't use that fund but still have to maintain an account number in their books. That's a loss for the banks.

I believe HSBC is just trying to balance out things for themselves and hence they are forced to freeze accounts of the protesters in the name of illegal usage of banking channel. HSBC is trying not to make the Dragon angry!

This is one of such scenarios where we understand the need of cryptos in naked eye!

The head of HSBC Holdings Plc’s key China business resigned, the latest senior management change in a week that saw Europe’s largest lender oust its top executive.

Helen Wong announced her departure as head of Greater China in July to pursue another opportunity, and this is her last day at the bank, spokeswoman Maggie Cheung said Friday. Wong, one of the bank’s most senior women, had been in the role for about four years and worked at HSBC since 1992.

Her departure caps a week that started with the ouster of former Chief Executive Officer John Flint after just 18 months in the role, with the bank saying an “increasingly complex” environment of geopolitical tensions and risks to growth demanded new leadership.

Gold is up 17% this year -- set for the best showing since 2010 -- as investors weighed the benefit of havens amid the to-and-fro of the U.S.-China trade war and a run of central bank easing. The latest tick higher came even as Asian stocks edged up, and Donald Trump said Tuesday a deal with Beijing is “done.”

In theory, when supply is cut and demand remains, prices will rise. But what is your thought? Do you guys think it will go up

You realize this proposal does nothing to address flaws in GDP.

Its more a form of censorship. Similar to how internet search results and news media scrub statistics for how many trillions the EU is currently in debt. Its easy to find the US deficit in trillions. Try to find the same stat for the EU and there is a mysterious censorship blackout in effect.

The EU-28’s government deficit-to-GDP ratio decreased from -1.0 % in 2017 to -0.7 % in 2018, while this ratio also decreased in the EA-19 from -0.9 % to -0.5 %. Both in the EU-28 and EA-19, the general government deficit was the lowest in the available time series. Fourteen EU Member States — Luxembourg (+2.7 %), Malta and Germany (both +1.9 %), Bulgaria (+1.8 %), the Netherlands (+1.5 %), Czechia (+1.1 %), Greece (+1.0 %), Sweden, Denmark and Slovenia (all +0.8 %), Lithuania (+0.6 %), Croatia (+0.3 %), Austria (+0.2 %) and Ireland (+0.1 %) — registered government surpluses in 2018.

There were 12 EU Member States, namely Poland, Portugal, Estonia, Latvia, Belgium, Finland, Slovakia, Italy, Hungary, the United Kingdom, France and Spain, that recorded deficits in 2018 that were smaller than 3.0 % of GDP.

Two Member States had deficit equal to or higher than 3.0 % of GDP: Romania (-3.0 %) and Cyprus (-4.4 %) (see Figure 1). The high deficit for Cyprus in 2018 is mainly due to the impact from the restructuring of the Cyprus Cooperative Bank Ltd (CCB) - the sale of the good parts of CCB and the subsequent integration of the remaining public financial defeasance structure into general government accounts.

It appears people of the world are too feeble minded and uneducated to understand GDP. And so the powers that be are calling for GDP numbers to become obsolescent, so that we feeble minded do not injure ourselves attempting to make sense of GDP.

 

Fiat will be replaced by another currency, not sure that is Bitcoin or Cryptocurrency, I think no government will allow Bitcoin or any other created Cryptocurrency by the people which is uncontrollable, every government have a tendency to dominate and control over any currency, Every government has an agency which is Central Bank, So without approving by themselves, Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency will be in the mainstream ever, So I don't think that Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency will not replace of the Conventional Fiat very soon.

When libra runs on the decentralized network and that will improve the security of the libra itself as so many nodes are securing the network. About the scandal of facebook and that's what will be happened when you are trusting the centralized tech.

Basically, to talk about the security of libra doesn't make sense as the nodes will be running by all of the libra pratnership and that will make libra becomes decentralized and it can't be hacked easily like what already happened with facebook.

Hello dear members,
I have earned around $50 investment by posting in forums, claiming from faucets, viewing ads, etc.

I know that it may be impossible to trade with $50 capital because it is a very low amount but I thought that maybe there are some ways to trade with low amounts too. I don't care if the profit is low because I just want to increase it little by little to trade in larger scales in the future.
I prefer working with bitcoin.

What is your idea about this?

I just received this email:


Unlike other bitcoin credit cards, Xapo will store your value in bitcoins and only exchange it at the moment you use your card. It still involves credit card fees, but for now this is a great improvement.

Hi guys i read on the news that major few exchanges are delisting some altcoins that falls to keep up due to present bear market, for example poloniex exchange is delisting Omni and primecoin and others, what do you have to share about this?

Some are saying its good to invest in old coins now few old coins are dying, I believe they've met the end of their roadmap, no more excitement about them, this is why i still feels that newer coins will take the bigger advantage of future greenish market, what do you think?

There are no "Quantum PCs" The current Quantum Computers are primitive and MASSIVE, they need a whole building. We might be many decades early for Quantum PCs. And the "dangers" to Bitcoin will come much before Quantum PCs exist, and that is still many years away.

Deloitte is wrong, and the actual term is "Quantum Supremacy", as there is a prize involved in achieving it. There is nothing amazing about it. Bitcoin has mitigations ready and there is nothing to worry.

Should I move away from YouTube?

To understand DTube we must first talk about and understand Steemit, a blockchain-based social media platform that launched in July of 2016.  Essentially it’s a Reddit-type service where anyone can earn rewards by posting, curating, and up-voting relevant content. Monetary rewards come via a cryptocurrency token named STEEM, and in US dollar-pegged tokens called Steem Dollars. So think of Reddit (i.e. users post links, and vote good content up, and bad content down) – but every user who participates gets a monetary reward.


Decentralized Tube (or DTube for short) is a YouTube-like video platform that is built as an application on top of Steemit.  So it’s on the same platform utilising the same rules but specifically for video content. Essentially, users post videos, and are rewarded for creating and uploading content.
