for daily transaction and small use, cash is still more simple and faster than bitcoin!

And cheaper.


Bitcoin usefulness lied on cross border trade where you can send to the merchant/seller fast without having to pay high currency conversion fee and higher than needed transaction fee.

It is human nature to exploit and conquer, in one form or another.

Aljazeera as an 'unbiased' source? Only in some naive, easily manipulated leftist wet dream. It's actually a form of bias and manipulation at its worst: By attempting to take advantage of the moral ambiguity of the west, it advances a racial and ethnic ignorance of the arab world as some twisted form of 'enlightenment'.

Our world is not rational, and it is certainly not right according to what makes you feel reasonable.

By villianizing the west and its core principles while deceving themselves about their own intentions, they conveniently create a situation where they are the heroes (actually rapists and thieves who manipulate people to willingly submit), while others are 'imperialists', 'racists', 'oppressors' etc.

It's pretty transparent.

Yes. People who think Muslim is a religion of peace is denying reality. They are getting sympathy now because they happen to be underdog at this given time in the history.

Not saying the west is that much different. As ReserviorHunt pointed out: Socialism and pure capitalism are two side of the same rotten coin.

In what way did it change how you view the world?

Was young, and interested in investing. Always thought it was a one dimensional issue.

The book gives a direct view on how social, culture, infrastructure and attitude of the population have a far more impact on economic than just balance sheet can tell.

Should not create this thread in the first place.

Politic and religion open up for debate don't have good ending.

Apple already lose a big portion of market share.

Hardly seen any innovation and new product after Steve Jobs gone. Its day to stay on the stop spot are probably numbered.

Stay with Android, open source system, and more in line with bitcoin spirit.

We are still at around 50% off its all time high.

Predicting it to make new high is pre-mature at this point.

Buy at every dip. Sell at every bump.

Remember to set stop loss.
