21  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2021-07-14] Bitcoin mining ban an easy decision for China, says Bitmain EMEA pa on: July 19, 2021, 02:18:31 PM
Barely profitable mining operations will cease indefinitely in China but bigger farms will relocate to nearby countries or sell their rigs and buy newer and powerful miners and start their activities again in another country. China lost an opportunity to have some influence on bitcoin.
22  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Follows Ethereum? on: July 19, 2021, 02:07:45 PM
You are gravely wrong OP, most tokens before bitcoin tend to follow bitcoin rather than the opposite. I think there's this image about how bitcoin goes up and the other goes up too or something, although it says there that the following could be the opposite but I don't think that's exactly how it works but I am sure that bitcoin leads and others just follows.

It is always that way. Bitcoin rise then the other follows. Sometimes a coin or two move the opposite way or stay stable but it will follow them at the end.
POS effect on ETH will not be see now in my opinion but after few years.
23  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin at new heights on: July 04, 2021, 09:50:50 AM
Too early to say that bitcoin will go to that point anytime soon, remember that there's not a lot of good news that is big enough to really consider that bitcoin will be able to go to 45k anytime. Also, why do people call the price 28k a bottom? I don't get it, it's still higher than that of the last year's price.

There isn't a bottom nor a high price for Bitcoin. All of this designation are temporarily. The value of satoshi is so tiny comparing to dollar which means Bitcoin price will surge in the future to more than 6 digits .
24  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2021-07-03] Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Records Largest Drop in History on: July 04, 2021, 09:33:13 AM
"largest drop in history". Those journalists know how to pick words.
China crackdown on mining? shutting down some miners? there will be redistribution in other countries and so on.
25  Economy / Speculation / Re: Don't you think Bitcoin will die over the summer? on: June 15, 2021, 08:15:11 PM
Recently, the price of bitcoin has dropped by almost 1/3.  The beginning of May is 58 thousand, now it is already 38 thousand. The chart is steadily falling down.  Will Bitcoin die in the summer? Cheesy

After ten years I still have no idea what will kill Bitcoin while the world is still existing maybe a war, so far a pandemic failed to kill it, if ti's only dropping of the price I don't think it's going to happen because we have see the price drops a thousand times, you just need to check the chart, history, only newbies will have this kind of thinking.

The only thing that will die is shitcoins and the people behind it and those that spam this forum with nonsense while seeing bitcoin price pass 100k.

27  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Blood Pressure, I don´t understand it. But I want to. on: May 31, 2021, 07:39:18 PM
120/80 would be normal right?
Yes.

People in the US are obsessed with salt, and so many people are on medication for high blood pressure. Is it overblown? Will we in 20 years have a completely different perspective on this?
Yeah we will ban salt once 75% of the population will be on medication.
How does blood pressure over time damage the body, and what does it mean to have high blood pressure?
Stroke, eyes, kidney and cardiac damage. Our pipelines could not handle high pressure for a long time.
When you're running, what is a normal blood pressure? When you're at rest? And what is that at rest? When you sleep?

How do those number correlate?
Ups and downs depending from stress and rest. After all it is a 1 number all the time.
Is blood pressure as easy to quantify as a person's weight. How can one person be more fit or less depending on blood pressure?
Higher weight + lower activity = higher blood pressure and vice versa.
28  Economy / Speculation / Re: why the price of Bitcoin dumping? on: May 31, 2021, 07:26:00 PM
I wanna know the reason of dumping bitcoin price. I am new so i wanna know a lot about it. 
1. Sentiments of the investors
2. Elon Musk's tweet
3. China
Which is an embarrassment and let us know how many people are fragile in this world by following a psycho and news from a corrupt communist country.
29  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Is Coinbase going to list Satoshi on their exchange? on: May 11, 2021, 02:37:13 PM
Satoshi is the smallest unit in Bitcoin and it is inseparable from Bitcoin. Adding Satoshi just makes things confusing is making people misunderstand that there is more than 1 type of Bitcoin (other than Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Diamond ...). Coinbase or coinbase pro and exchanges won't do the above because they know it's pointless because they're just Bitcoin.

There will be a day when we will talk and use satoshi rather than bitcoin. We are witnessing a switch from kXDG (1000 doge) to doge. Switch from Bitcoin to satoshi will occur when you walk out and buy 3 satoshi coffee and not 0.00000003 bitcoin.. Until this era come, there will be no listing.

Your post is not related to Super League OP Wink
Your prediction was correct for Leicester and Sociedad but Milan lost and Torino didn't score. Milan 5th? too bad.
32  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Just wait for April 14th, Coinbase listing looks like will be a record listing on: April 09, 2021, 10:23:33 AM
Coinbase and BNB huh. I would not buy Coinbase even if I was a speculator just because I actually probably can't (location problem). But BNB my god, at the rate it is at now, it would only make sense to buy it if you believed the rally isn't over and BNB can touch $1000. Because when the winter comes for crypto, BNB would be the first to lose 80% easily.
The price of BNB is ridiculously high more than $400. Ethereum took longer to reach that level. I agree it is hyped but I doubt it will crash unless it is happening for most cryptocurrencies.
Coinbase share can be a good investment, not sure. "invest" what you afford to lose?

34  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2021-03-30 TheVerge - PayPal will let US users pay with Bitcoin on: April 01, 2021, 10:24:37 PM
I would change my skepticsm of Paypal’s adoption of bitcoin if it begins allowing cryptocoin withdrawals from their site. What Paypal only did is create crypto gamblers of their users. This is my opinion only. Also, I hope Paypal releases the data on how many of their users really pay with bitcoin.
Big businesses don't care how much people buy with bitcoin. They appreciate every entering satoshi that will be multiplied after few months while FIAT is in devaluation over the years.

There isn't a limit. 21M is the cap for BTC. In the past people used to buy things like pizza with thousands of BTC but now you can buy the same pizza with 2 mBTC and in the upcoming years we will buy it with 2 Satoshi then 2 mSatoshi and so on.
37  Other / Meta / Old news - Press sub on: February 14, 2021, 01:54:37 PM
Hey, I just want to verify when it is not allowed to start a topic in the Press sub containing an old news.
For example those two topics 1 & 2 are created 13 & 14 February while the news there were dating from 2 & 3 February.
Ok maybe it doesn't seem old enough to be reported as irrelevant but since it is not frequent to find this, I want to know after how much time should those kind of topics been reported. Without a limit everyone could start creating topics about old events in the Press sub. You can post about 2013 ATH for example but in the bitcoin discussion as a discussion to understand more or whatever you want but this should not be a news in Press sub. I think myself that reporting news that is not old than 2-4 days in this sub is normal.
38  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: 2021-02-12 - BitPay Adds Apple Pay Support on: February 14, 2021, 01:28:48 PM
Apple hasn't done anything.  What this really shows is that Bitcoin-related companies are the people who are innovating in crypto payments rather than billionaires like Musk and Tim Cook.

It's a little unfortunate though that this expects people to be using Bitcoin primarily as an asset rather than a currency.  It is similar to if you deposited gold and a card agreed to spent fiat money for you based on how much gold is in your account.  Ideally, Bitcoin's transaction fees and confirmation time will become low enough that an intermediary like BitPay won't be necessary to spend it at retailers.

Well BitPay didn't really "innovate" anything here as well, they just added Apple Pay as one of their payment methods with regards on adding funds to their account so technically there is nothing about making Bitcoin as a payment method here. Also I know where you are coming from but tbh I don't think its these companies' fault on why they aren't making Bitcoin as an accepted payment method since they have to consider a lot of things from the volatile price of Bitcoin to also considering the capital gains tax they will incur when they try to accept Bitcoin directly that is why we say Steam pulled out from accepting Bitcoin because of this situation. For me Bitcoin and the whole crypto market is doing fine if this bull market will be going longer I think it will attract more and more people in the market. The more people we have in the industry the more chances we have for mass adoption.

I am sure Steam regrets removing Bitcoin payments after this recent surge. They lost x4 - x5 the price of each game that would be bought since then.
In fact most companies will not care from where the money comes from, BitPay will send them FIAT after all so there are not dealing with Bitcoin directly.

True, whether Paypals way of letting people buy Bitcoin was correct or not, it's still a fact that they were one of the major influences for the adoption that we are seeing right now. It's no brainer that them releasing a method to buy Bitcoin opened up a lot of opportunities for others, and this is just limited to the US, and even then it's only limited to only a few accounts afaik. Imagine if it was released worldwide, as long as they do this properly, you can expect huge waves especially in other countries where it's a pain to buy Bitcoin.
PayPal will allows everyone to buy and sell Bitcoin in 2021. In 2020 it allowed it to be used for their merchants only if I am not mistaken.
