Not only is it important it plays an integral and vital role in how beginners understand the industry. When I first got into Bitcoin it was because I knew about Bitcoin not because of altcoins, or because of cryptocurrency, or cryptography, or "mooning". None of those I knew about all I knew was Bitcoin existed and it seemed awesome and from there we gain and expand our knowledge about blockchains.

Well at the minimum you needed to click a phishing link to get hacked which makes me feel a bit more safe. Also ED tweeted now that they will make an attempt to make the interface better as well as educate users on phishing attempts which is also good for the end user and makes me feel even safer.

Others are already doing this? Please name a few or even a couple because as far as I knew this was going to be a new type of exchange or technology offered. Disregard the way it was presented Polymath will be a good network for building security tokens on.

Not just the name but the name now has become synonymous with cryptocurrency that they are inseparable. Rather more people know the bitcoin name than what a cryptocurrency is. I try tell people what I do and they blank on cryptocurrency and then I mention bitcoin 5 seconds later and most understand at that point. It goes to show how important bitcoin is to cryptos and in fact bitcoin may be bigger in popularity than cryptos.

Who cares if there are more ways to short it, do you know what an ETF is going to do for bitcoin? I know it won't be directly related but that has to be some of the most bullish news one can expect next year for BTC and I would be thrilled if this came out sometime next year.

Awh man I came online too late today that sucks I missed the raffle by a little bit . I would like to participate in the next one though any chance it can have a bigger opening like 50-100 participants or even uncapped? Alternatively you could run a lottery too in which people buy in I am sure that this would get some traction as well as get Bitcore name out more. That would be a lot better imo and the prize would be bigger too!

There are a few coins which have went up the past few days but have a bit more room to go up still and those are: Dogecoin, Siacoin, and Bytecoin. All under the 1 cent margin all with a little space left to go if this alt party continues on.

You are right that most people on here defend bitcoin without taking into consideration the other side which is short-sighted. But we are on a bitcoin forum I mean did you really expect any different? I know I didn't but again it would be nice to have an earnest conversation about bitcoin especially those problems that plague it. I do think though because of how big bitcoin is it won't go under because of transactions fees or block size. Those are issues that can definitely be figured out, and one all will want to see a consensus on therefore don't worry too much.

Well it is tough because some have become successful but the other 99% of these tokens become quite useless. If I were you I would spend my time investing in airdrops for real coins that have real use case and purpose. For instance I am in this Bitcore airdrop right now as well as others and they are all great coins in which I have confidence in long term. Try looking for solid airdrop coins not tokens, I think this will help you a lot.

Totally fine sir I was just making sure of what to expect now I know. Thanks for the swift reply !

You literally have zero recourse unless you wrote it down because if you use verbal threats you are threatening somebody same as physical threats. Now your only recourse it to hope that person is a good soul and returns that money back to you. Easier said than done of course and I doubt they will want to pay you the 20x increase that has happened in that time. Sucks to lose that $100 sucks even more it is now worth $2k almost.

We are trying to build as a group but most people are inherently short-sighted and for some reason fail to see if the industry grows they will likely benefit. Most people think that if their coin doesn't moon or go up 10x in a span of a few months things are scammy, rigged, and whatever else. I only can hope that more people see the world through your lens because it is not only healthy but beneficial for all who are in crypto.

I have no idea obviously but I can imagine anybody talks about Bitcoin or mentions altcoins or anything cryptography or cryptocurrency related that person or people have a nice big grin on their face. Like yeah that is me, I changed the world but nobody knows who I am. Supremo boss status if you ask me and what a feeling that would be

I wasn't the first adopter but that is a big accomplishment that the industry as a whole has hit and I hope that I am around for the next 500k blocks in order to see what this beautiful industry becomes. Bitcoin the king, hopefully you will be intact and #1 that day!

I don't think the futures prices and the price of actual BTC are directly linked therefore the conversation is more or less irrelevant. Sure one can see how much interest big sharks are giving the bitcoin market but that doesn't mean they would put millions into the market themselves because then they only win by going up. This way they can win either way and seeing how traditional markets function this way it is right up their alleys.

As much as I love crypto and as much as I dislike governments I must sadly agree with this notion here. I don't think governments and states will relinquish their control and probably will use their threat of violence to prevent this from happening. When you break it down it is basically like what terrorists do except in a more controlled and organized manner. That mashed together with propaganda and voila you have a mindless working class that has no problem being in debt their whole life. I hope that I am completely wrong however and crypto does one day takeover as international currency

I like the realistic nature in which you try to predict where bitcoin will end up. Most people will be either on either extreme of bust or going big but I too think it will fall in between those extremes.

p.s I liked the bit about that one person who thought bitcoin had an owner hahaha hilarious let that noob money come in 

I would very much like to see Cryptopia add RaiBlocks it would be a solid exchange to add not to mention it probably won't go down as often. I also like Cryptopia because they trade my favorite coin of Bitcore, perhaps they could trade my two favorite coins together. XRB lets get you on Cryptopia!

Thanks for opening up the campaign to more individuals it is kind of you and I think it will be good long term to get more exposure for Bitcore
