If a country develops its own digital currency it will still be a centralized digital currency.

It will be no different from electronic form of fiat money you have on your bank account with the difference that you'll be able to see your transaction on the blockchain without having to login to your bank account.

For investment purposes a decentralized cryptocurrency will always be a better choice.

If I'd get more money from my campaign or some job I'd return it of course.

If I got a higher withdrawal from the exchange I'd probably contact them with the issue and see if they'd be willing to give me a bonus. This way I'd feel good on my conscience and have some more money.

It's easy to say now but if it was a very high amount like a million dollars I'd have to fight myself not to keep it. I'm not sure what I'd do in that case, possibly take the money because it would be so much that I'd be able to live on it for the rest of my life.

I'm not so sure about that. 20 thousand is going to be an extremely strong resistance level.

Look how much time we needed to break 10 thousand and then 14. Bitcoin was lurking at 11-12 thousand level for a year! If we now go to 20 it's going to get dumped back to 12.

Paypal news created a strong uptrend but we'll need something more to go above 20.

There are 2 best answers that I can think of.

1. The best time is at the top of the pump. If you had Bitcoin in 2017 then the best time was at 19000 dollars or above
2. The best time is when you feel comfortable selling. The moment when you will be able to said I sold because I wanted to. Not I sold to save some money or I sold because I was scared.

Yes I did.

One of my friends contacted me to tell me that he regrets selling and another one messaged me to ask if it's a good time to buy.

It was when Bitcoin broke 12 thousand and I told him that every moment is a good moment to buy and that I thought he got something when we were at sub 10 thousand. I haven't heard from him since, hope he bought some.

My opinion about the foundation is rather negative.

A bunch of people who had a lot of money and influence in the community thought they can form a type of council that would speak with one voice to the media and the politicians. At the same time they allowed people in for a fee, voted on stuff and so on.

It was like a group of teenagers roleplaying as the senate. No wonder the foundation met its end. It had no real purpose.

When we say the economy cannot survive what does it mean? What's the worst that can happen to a locked country? Some businesses will be close to bankruptcy and demand support from the government. Some will go bankrupt and be bought out by the competition. There's a lot of people who have the money to invest. Maybe some of them will be the new class of Bitcoin billionaires?


What? Not survived meaning what? They went bankrupt? Which countries? Are you on something?

Are you for real? You never have an assurance with anything you do.

You start a business. What assurance do you have that this business will succeed?
You go to bed at night. What assurance do you have that you'll wake up in the morning?
You buy Bitcoin. What assurance do you have that there won't be a dump tomorrow?

As long as you are a confident trader you can minimize the risk of trading borrowed money.

They won't care about the difference, but what exactly will be the difference between this centralized crypto and fiat money?

Now people have a choice to use centralized fiat money for payments or Bitcoin and Bitcoin is functioning well, with its value growing every year.

Will the introduction of a new centralized crypto be in any way a danger to Bitcoin when there already are centralized and fast cryptocurrencies like XRP that nobody uses?

Most tokens are worthless and get dumped that's something to be expected. Anybody who complains about it don't know the realities odf the altcoin market and the value of most bounty rewards and airdrops. They used to be worth something when ICOs were booming in 2018 but now it's mostly a waste of time.

Tokens have low liquidity, don't get listed, get listed on shady exchanges, require KYC and it takes months for them to be listed.

They should rather buy some decent already tradable coins and use them as bounty collateral so that people don't have to speculate if and when the coin gets listed and what the price will be.

Everybody will know the team is serious and the promotion is worth a certain amount of money for them not some wothless tokens that might get distributed in 6 months and exchangeable in 8.

But have they really developed anything in the last 10 years? I only remember them from Rollercoaster Tycoon and it's probably the only game young people know them for.

Atari was a popular platform before my time and then they turned into a rather unsuccessful game developper.

On their page ou can read they're trying to get involved in casino games and even fundraising. You can see they're doing bad financially and want to make money from any means possible and crypto hype is one of them.

Bitcoin.com? Was there no better exchange?

It's not even at its 3m high so for now the pump is really small for a news this bigh.

I expect it to at the very least touch the yearly high of 480 USD. If it doesn't it's going to be strange.

The only explanation for ETH not going to 500 would be that BTC is pumping even harder and people are selling all their alts to join the rally.

So they aren't going to do anything about this thief.

They should at least release the information they got about him because once a scammer always a scammer. He's going to play dead for a while and come back with another idea.

If it was an attempted scam they could give him a warning but he got away with the money and got scared later.

Why do you assume that the owners or the hackers are from the US? If they are not why do you think moving it on this day had something to do with election in the US?

There's really nothing that would prove that there's a connection between the wallet and the election.

Because of the above I think there's too much baseless speculation around this wallet. That person could be moving coins to a hardware wallet and is now reading this and laughing.

He risked it all for 18%. Now they're going to charge him for smuggling and take care of his gold for him.

I hope hie didn't damage any of his internal parts during "transport" because with his wealth in the hands of the police it will be hard for him to pay his medical bill

It's easy to move Bitcoin around and easy to spend it without paying taxes because you can move to a country with a more lenient approach to cryptocurrencies. That guy could have avoided the humiliation if he only knew it.

It is infinite if we assume that human and animal waste is infinite. As long as you have shit, you'll have methane and hydrogen sulfide. Both flammable and combustible.


What I mean is that it can be produced without any byproducts like CO2 and nuclear waste. Once you make dam on a river it can keep working with minimum maintenance for 100 years or more.

I always tell people to follow their own opinions and do their own research. FOMO and greed can be really destructive when you're a new investor.

The things you can sometimes read on the forum, like newbies telling others to buy this or that new shitcoin or people telling others to buy all top 10 CMC coins because if they are high they have to be good.

As for the borrowing. If you're a good trader and were successful making money with what you have, it's not a bad idea to borrow.

He keeps on making the same threads like:

People Say btc is Not ponzi but its look like ponzi
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5280498.msg55330235#msg55330235

What are his motives? He reveals some of them.

OP didn't buy BTC and witnessed a recent pump. Is that anger of someone who feels like he missed the train? Is OP a sore loser?  

Envy isn't healthy OP, just find something you like doing and do it!

The rise in cost of transaction is nothing unexpected.

The value of your bitcoins went up by 40% in the last 2 months, it's completely normal thath the fee in USD also rose by 40% and even more because the rise in value resulted in more mainstream attention and more transactions.

I don't think that people will be discouraged by this. It's not a lot of money to send 10 thousand dollars across the globe. It may be a lot to send 100 USD but not many people buy small amounts of bitcoin these days and when they do they can avoid the fees by keeping their coins on exchanges until there's enough of them for the fee to look small.
