Scared to give the people freedom, banning what they cannot control. The blockchain should be on the level of freedom of speech.
22  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: IS HOLDING TRULY THE SOLUTION TO DROP OF BTC PRICE? on: September 27, 2018, 12:35:33 PM
The thing is many miners don't/can't hold and need to offset their mining costs. So there will always be some kind of sell pressure.
23  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Google lifts Crypto-Currency Add Ban! on: September 27, 2018, 12:31:17 PM
Read the full article: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/09/25/google-reverses-ban-on-cryptocurrency-exchange-advertising-in-us-japan.html

Oh, the bad news is, they would only allow regulated/verified exchanges to use their add platform. Meaning - You want to advertise your crypto platform through google? Get your shit verified. I'm sure twitter, facebook, medium soon will follow the same. In the conclusion, fuck decentralisation and let the government regulate everything related to crypto.


One way or another this is a bullish news for the cryptomarket. I remember the day when the adds was banned by the google. Much good news is accumulating at the moment. We are going to see the effects in the near future.

Weird though, as the ads are only pointed to ico's which should have nothing to do with bitcoin.
24  Economy / Economics / Re: Money laundering tools on: September 26, 2018, 06:33:59 PM
that is only part of the negative side of using bitcoin, actually bitcoin has more positive side too, and one more thing bitcoin transactions use pseudonyms, not anonymous. So crime should be used using bitcoin can be tracked because there is user data.

There are a lot of companies started with the sole purpose of laundering money, I bet there is more money laundered that way than there is in all of crypto.
25  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: will bitcoin become obsolete? on: September 26, 2018, 05:46:26 PM
I think cryptocurrencies are here to stay. Now, some will be more successful than others. I am sure AML BitCoin will be the best coin in the near future as its compliant with KYC and AML.

Haha funny, thanks for the laugh  Roll Eyes
26  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think that the HODL approach is good bitcoin? on: September 26, 2018, 05:42:48 PM
Hodl approach for a long time will become a great strategy to make profit without taking the risk. Not every time hodl approach will help you to make profit but most of the times it will help you to generate profit.

If we look at btc's history we can conclude it's a fact that holding bitcoin pays off, the exception at the moment is if you have bought btc around 20k (realistically at 7k or above now).
But who knows what the future will bring Wink
27  Economy / Economics / Re: Will governments create their own cryptocurrency that will replace fiat? on: September 25, 2018, 12:40:45 PM
I would rather keep fiat/cash in that case... who needs  a centralized crypto? It's going to be the same as fiat currency but just digital...and even less privacy.
28  Economy / Economics / Re: Asians are the most bitcoin holders in the world. on: September 25, 2018, 12:39:05 PM
I don't think you can conclude that Asians are the most bitcoin holders because investors sell bitcoin to people all over the world, so we can't predict if Asians are the biggest holders of bitcoin. Bitcoin is currently well-known throughout the world so that people in other regions can start using it to make assets in the future. Even in Asia, there are still some countries that cannot accept bitcoin.

OP made up that bitcoin was born in Asia as well, none of what he says is to be taken seriously imo.
29  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It Takes 9343$ to mine one bitcoin, so no way i am selling it below 12000$ on: September 25, 2018, 12:37:44 PM
with all things said and done, it will not matter at all what the real cost of mining bitcoin is. it may be $1 or it may be $100K.


Something with nail and head Wink
Supply and demand is what will be making the price.
30  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: COMPANIES IN JAPAN PAYING SALARY IN BITCOIN on: September 25, 2018, 12:35:39 PM
I don't know exactly when, but I have seen companies pay out salary in bitcoin years ago already, and also outside of Japan.
31  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is Bitcoin still a slave of Fiat? on: September 24, 2018, 06:50:54 PM
because bitcoin still need legalization to be accepted as a currency. Until that, it is still a slave of fiat and can not replace fiat

Even if btc was an officially accepted currency, fiat is what is being used by everyone as of now. Bitcoin wouldn't all of the sudden break free from that.
32  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When people say Bitcoin is dead, make sure to show them this... on: September 24, 2018, 06:48:36 PM
And this...

Bitcoin has "died" over 300 times so far.  Roll Eyes

My favorite by far, noobs and trolls will always be around so I doubt it's ever going to stop.
33  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin bull run begins now? on: September 21, 2018, 01:12:05 PM
IMHO now Bitcoin and the whole market fall and it will continue to go down. I think it will drop under $ 2000 by June of 2019. So right now I prefer not to buy Bitcoin but sell it or just open short positions through marginal trading.
i think you should explain the reason behind on your analisys.so we learn together and not spreading fud in market.i am just thinking why should crypto community let bitcoin price down below $2000.

Most baseless statements don't include reasoning Wink
34  Economy / Economics / Re: People are not motivated by money. on: September 21, 2018, 01:04:14 PM
I always hear the argument for capitalism "B bb BUT people won't innovate without the profit motive" WRONG

Humans want to solve problems, create, and innovate, they do not need money to motivate them.  Cavemen were painting art 20,000 years ago without the desire of money.

True scientists like Tesla, he didn't care about money it was about the pursuit of science.

Capitalism does not cause innovation, most new technology is found by government programs like nasa (internet, smartphones, etc)

Of course there are people who do things just to better mankind or to help society (scientists who research incurable diseases funded by donation money).
But I think there are more people who do it for the money so they can live their ideal life. The world is driven by money and selfishness.
35  Economy / Economics / Re: Crisis is Coming on: September 20, 2018, 03:30:04 PM
Could be a signal for something worse to come, Putin also mentioned how there is a big crisis coming.
I will have to see it first to believe it, but I don't think it' outside the realm of possibilities.
36  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is China giving importance to Blockchain? on: September 20, 2018, 03:25:05 PM
They are interested but it's not the technology for them currently, they want something to suppress their people. Something to keep them from being free, bitcoin is not that.
37  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in Iran touch 26.000 USD on: September 19, 2018, 01:06:36 PM
why is the price of Bitcoin in Iran is more expensive than global prices?
Is it really possible for a country to determine the selling price of Bitcoin?

You are a Sr.Member in this forum how it is possible that you have missed this situation before?
There have been numerous accasions when this have happen:
1)Some country in South Africa, matbe it was  Zimbawe
2)And how you did miss Japan prices while in the bubble?

these news articles about bitcoin being 25k in zimbabwe and 18k in nigeria etc are usually just bullshit.

Just like it's not true in this case either.

why is the price of Bitcoin in Iran is more expensive than global prices?

It isn't. The "news" that Bitcoin was selling for $24,000 in Iran was based on the incorrect exchange rate - the subsidized exchange rate of 1 USD to 42k IRR set by the government for imports of certain goods. The actual exchange rate of 1 USD to 140k IRR gives the real price.

Can anyone verify the author of this site really be linked to the Creator of bitcoin? What about the new announcement. Are we going to get answered for our questions? What message did the site displayed before?

http://nakamotofamilyfoundation.org

The site is not existing anymore so I don't know what is the content of this website prior to the deletion of the content, you should have screenshot it or at least quote for late readers to have an idea what the contents of the sites are and if it is relevant to our current situation.

Announcing the first excerpt to a literary work consisting of two parts. The excerpt is provided. I wanted to include it as a brief glimpse of history. Even for those that can't read the full book, I wanted to make this available to everyone. A short story if you will, with some of the most brought up questions and answers. I wanted the people and the facts to be known. Or as much of it. I'm still saving most for the books, the best parts hopefully. It's currently just a possibility for now. In the meantime the excerpt is included.

Links with information about the book (if it comes to frution) will be posted here on this site in the coming month.
Names to both are in this puzzle to solve, for those who want spoilers head down to the excerpt: cryptopuzzle

- Convert letters to numbers
- Numbers like 1 represent the letter B, it is in mixed order
- Title of book broken into two parts is revealed at the end

The two part series is still alpha and experimental. There's no guarantee the book will ever come to be, unless it becomes necessary and people want to know about me personally.

In order to figure out the names for them, I have created a simple cryptogram. It is ridiculously easy for anyone to solve, regardless of age. No bruteforce needed. I also will provide the approximate release dates later on in the case they do get made.

I would like to maintain that there were many who contributed to this project, many names of which were not included, individuals who for whatever reason have chosen not to go public and therefore out of respect, I did not include them. Once these conversations are in the public domain to include them in the possible series, I will do so. But to be certain, there are countless conversations I found to be enlightening that I hope make it to be part of the story. There will be many new names and individuals appearing throughout the book in any case, as it is a story about my personal life. Those willing to share these conversations should, for the public

Are all overprinted, unfairly distributed, centralized fiat currencies "worthy" of being a currency?
