I have USD 2000 to invest. Should I buy Bitcoins or gold?
what you prefer can hold upto 1 year
Why don't you post the same question in a gold investors forum and see what they say.  |

Yeah it sucks. But there's still hope though.
There is big pressure on New York because it is the first state to launch its own set of regulations specific to digital currency. The only other states even working on such policy right now, said Jerry Brito of Coin Center, are California, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Most other states are expected to simply copy what New York does, and so, if New York comes out the gate with something too strict, it runs the risk of losing innovative bitcoin companies to other states that are less tough. Wilson went so far as to say that New York could lose “the next Wall Street” to Silicon Valley, or Estonia, or North Carolina.
A part of me is hoping that they pass it as is. If they don't want innovation, so be it. |

I love what you've done to his eyes... Did you do his tooth too? ... I like it. |

Pumpkin, See what I mean?  |

My money is on Titcoin.  It motorboats all the other digital currencies into submission. If she shows her tits when you tap send, then I agree with you. |

As I was reading through some of the ANN threads, I noticed a common complaint. A lot of people feel that their favorite coin is undervalued compared to other coins. Is your favorite coin ( altcoin, Bitcoin, wooden nickels, etc... ) undervalued? If so, what makes you feel that way?
Yes. Because I am holding them and would want them to be worth much much more so I can finally buy all the things that I haven't been able to afford because I am only a working class schmuck. |

No stops were triggered and no forced liquidations happened. In fact, BTC swaps (shorts) went up during the spike.
Well, the spike in shorts went down again, so someone closed their shorts. People were shorting and closed some already. If the shorts keep piling up, well, that's alright with me. I can't wait for a short-squeeze  I like seeing some nice and green fireworks. Exactly. I really thought that BitFinex's stops would get hit. That BTCe trader/s was quite aggro. I think, or I hope we'll see him again. Market action has been so boring lately.  I believe that some stops did get hit, that's almost a given, actually. But it seems like the amount of shorts being closed wasn't big enough to push the rally even further. It's really been a while since we've seen a real short-squeeze cascade. Well, except maybe for BTC-e, it really looked like their trading engine was making some people really bitter the other day - and others pretty happy, I believe! Ooohh... No wonder people were calling me a retard... |

If this really materializes that exact way, it effectively is almost like a ban. True. That draft of the BitLicense always reminds me of how news of new Chinese regulations crashed the price back in early 2014 every couple days or weeks. They didn't outright ban Bitcoin, but instantiated obscure laws complicating buying BTC on exchanges.
Yeah. We'll see by the end of May when it takes effect. I hope it goes through another revision. A big revision. I really wonder who is behind those regulations... I mean, sure, there are a lot of people who fear Bitcoin or rather want it gone, but you need at least some kind of influence in order to being able to push things this far! I hope the people in charge realize that this would only stifle innovation and growth in an area that could become somewhat of a "game changer" at some point in the future! The institutions that pull the strings. JPMorgan Chase Bank of America Citigroup Wells Fargo The Bank of New York Mellon And these same institutions are all for crypto-currencies. They just want one that they control. |

If you're an active trader, you'll need the exchange with the most volume depending on what coin you want to trade. So you will probably need more than one.
In that list, I mostly use trex, polo and cryptsy.

“You have to remember,” Wilson said early on in the discussion, “My first introduction to BitLicense was a subpoena from the NYDFS. Usually you don’t introduce yourself with a punch in the gut.” He added that other bitcoin businesses and venture capitalists, too, were subpoenaed by Lawsky and the NYDFS without any sort of warning ahead of time. Wilson was just one of the high-profile names present from the bitcoin community. The other people in the room included executives from Coinbase, Circle, Xapo, BitPay, Genesis Trading, Digital Asset Holdings, and the Digital Currency Group. There were also policy folks from Coin Center and MIT Media Lab, plus six reporters.
The four biggest “pain points” these people have with the most current version of the BitLicense—the version that most in the room feared will remain intact and become final—are: that the BitLicense may regulate bitcoin wallets, not just exchanges; that the BitLicense will require money-transmitters to get two different licenses in each state; that it will require licensed companies to get approval for new rounds of funding that substantively impact controlling interests; and that it appears to also require approval for every new product they launch.

Silli question. Because of he's pumping it on Bittrex therefore he need buyers to dump there, not on Cryptsy . Well, I hope he checked out Cryptsy. |

It was clear from the start this guy was taking advantage of the viral trend of DOGE, and once he realized it was just that, a trend, he jumped off the ship. He probably sold his DOGE a long time ago, just like I did (nailed it and sold all that crap at 200 satoshi).
He wasn't really active anymore with the Doge community even before Neucoin. He already started being an adviser last year to other projects like Stellar, and now Neu. What really made him say the "libertarian white bros" and "crypto is a toxic community" comments was the fact that he tried to basically shill Neu at /r/dogecoin and got a lot of negative responses. So yeah, he got hurt in a way... |

Thanks for wasting couple of minutes of my precious life. I neither understood what he was singing, nor the subtitles. I hate you! But you have to admit, the shoes he's wearing are really nice. Might buy me a pair. "He"? Looked more like "she" to me, from the kind of dress and shoes SHE is wearing, and the voice too! A "she"? Whaaat? Ok I have to see it again. |
