If there are many investors around the globe and and the price of bitcoin increases, the level of manipulation in price would be really low because you cannot purchase and hoard or manipulate huge number of coins when the price is high, still the whales who are holding the coins could sell off their coins and manipulate the market as we see now with the Mt Gox liquidation, they are selling off their coins in huge numbers that are affecting the market.

Do you really think that if a match is fixed each and every person in the team will have the knowledge about it, be realistic and do not say fixed matches are impossible, we have seen a lot of fixed matches throughout history and there were matches where i lost money because it was purely fixed and then the investigation years down the line is revealed and we wont get that money back.

Bitcoin is not competing against fiat currency and as a bitcoiner i do not have any dreams that it would be the sole currency traded world wide, both these form of transaction will exist in the future and that is what we have to see moving forward, people will have the option which currency to use and it will help users with hyper inflated economy.

Since this is a new website, they should provide evidence that they have the necessary bank roll to withdraw if someone wins and they must be able to provide that proof and if they can do that they are advertising their site, no one is asking to publicly display their entire balance, but they need to prove that they could repay at least 10 bitcoin, the site looks good and if they have the funds its a good thing and it is indeed a way to promote the new site.

Kohli as a captain and a player is really humbled by the entire teams performance of this IPL, even with big names they could not even win a match, this is ridiculous, the match looks like fixed without a doubt, they were cruising really well when chasing and suddenly loosing wickets and ends up chocking rather than getting the win and now they can join their families soon.

Bitcoin is not anonymous, it has value and i clearly did not understand what you mean by these, this is a really funny conversation and it shows clearly that the hacker was a noob, he clearly did not understand the market really well and he was just playing around and the owner of the site really did not care about getting the site back, either way it was some fun conversation.

This is not the first time the old man is talking about a technology he could not understand under the natural circumstance of his age and still he wants to make opinions when he was an individual who promoted scam as he directly controlled all the rating agencies and that in turn started the meltdown having a closed eye on certain shady things and he was an insider trading and so i do not mind what he says

There are tokens which are useless and there are many scams in the market because of these wild ICO hunt and it wont last long, the governments around the world will come up with regulations to counter this because of the amount of scams that happened with it and only legit projects should have the opportunity to collect funds and they must be monitored on their progress and if not big penalties must be imposed and that will cut short this mad ICO craze.

I would like to see some performance from Brendon McCullum, he was one of my favorite players in T20s and i always liked his battled against Tait and how he hit over the keeper for six, it was the best version and the inaugural IPL performance was great, but then i did not find him perform that much and even now with his retirement from international cricket, if he could not regain his form, he wont be selected next year.

Are you telling that bitcoin will die alone or you are assuming and asking that to the OP. Bitcoin wont loose its place and it is the primary coin everyone is targeting to get hold of, even with other alt coin projects majority of them assume to get hold of bitcoin when those investment end up in a profit, so it wont loose its place. There is literally no strategy to know before hand whether the market would crash, but if you come to know then i would sell off and buy back at the bottom.

The faucet is simply for new users to check out the site and the rest of the users actually do not need a faucet, i rarely used the faucet in the past few years and i use only when i bust everything, some have the knack to make use of the faucet facility by multiplying it and i have seen many people trying out their luck with success, with the price of bitcoin rising i do not think that they will continue with faucets for long.

As an end user do we really care about the technology, sure it does change the personal financial freedom irrespective of the inflation and the financial crashes, the safety is good as long as you know how to secure your coins and the major concern for me is that bitcoin has become a speculative coin than a currency, which i think is not that great looking forward.
I understand this thread is created way back in 2013 but the doubts OP had is the same doubts every new user has about bitcoin. Majority of the investment are because of the future profits they could make rather than using this as a currency and so is the reason people are investing in it.

Putting all in wont end up well all the time, i have my experience, where i was addicted just to gamble in sports, even if i am travelling and not able to watch the match live and so is the case with going full in, now i try to play safe and even then i end up with unexpected loss whenever there is an upset every now and then, use twenty percent in risky games and eighty percent in sure shot wins.

If you keep on trying to recover your losses you will end up with a deep loss, you lost today too, what is your next bet 10mBTC to recover all that loss.
I did not see Miller play and if he is available Punjab is doing the worst selection process as he is the top T20 players and their batting lacks power hitters and so is the reason they lost today's match too.

There is no confirmation that the price would again touch the ATH price, it all depends upon how much the price would go and it is just an estimate, there was a massive sell off from Mtgox team, consider another huge sell off from some other whales, the price could go down and might not even recover if there is more investment in it, what i am trying to tell is that, you cannot guarantee anyone when it comes to investment.

This market has turned out to be a speculative market, Charlie Lee is the best example, he just wanted to ride the market and that is the case with John McAfee who is willing to advertise any coin if he is given his share and we have seen Mayweather and other sports stars advertising ICOs, the only thing you have to be careful is to fall for these traps.

I am certain that majority of the replies will be about making a load of money, i started using bitcoin because of the ease at which you can transfer money swiftly and easily without a third party trust and that is the only reason i started out in this market, making money is not my intention, but to transfer funds and gamble was my interest but that does not mean that i have not made any investment, i have made some but it wont make you millions, but over all i am happy with it.

What do you think about bitcoin, the initial developer is anonymous and still is revolutionized and created a new market, unless the project is aimed to get money from investors then the situation changes, if the developer is coming up with great ideas and if he really wants privacy, then he can remain anonymous and there is nothing wrong with it, we must not mix these with ICO and a developed coin.

I stand by the points made by franky1, no one owns bitcoin and there is no trademark conflict here, we are here talking about decentralization but what everyone here is having a different opinion, if there is bitcoin attached you need to move that to the core, core is a team that helps in developing bitcoin and it is not a centralized authority and they do not own bitcoin. If Roger Ver is misleading new investors, the investors need to learn about the market before investing rather than trusting anyone blindly and there is no way you could forcefully own a domain unless it is used for illegal purposes.

The fight was really short, they were swinging for the fences, Fedor got clipped but got up and started swinging and won in just 48 seconds and he will be facing Chael Sonnen, i was impressed with his performance against Quinton Jackson but then Jackson is just a reflection of what he was as he lacks discipline and his cardio sucked. Expecting more theatrics from Chael leading up to this fight.

Is he the person hanging with team Conor, no wonder he is trying to get fights with the help of talking, the problem is that he has a great ground game but his standing game sucks.


They could have made this match up, but the problem with this is that, they wont actually accept the fight in the same card, because it strains their preparation and both wont be having time to look after each other, over all the fight game is half mental and half physical .
