Can you tell us when those expire?  And can you post any proof of that you are a real owner?
There was few members trying to sell not their domains.
Thanks.
Regards.

There are better and faster coins than bitcoin now, bitcoin is dying and only thing keeping it afloat is the fact that it was the first. Open your eyes, come to reality, wake up from your slumber

I haven't been blessed. It was through my foresight that I saw bitcoin for how valuable it was. No man helped me along, and many discouraged me.

Thank you.

well maybe not a gov like we know it - but we need some members to keep eye on everything

So some old Chinese guy is saying something everyone here already knows? Cool, but why should we care?

What's the significance of him saying it?

It seems you don't understand the basica rules of market. The current price is what it is without those coins, how can the price go up? coins will buy coins?

If crypto succeeds, it will not be through BTC.  There's other reasons as well, but no mainstream currency would be publicly mined.

The whole system is now contrived on blinded optimism, speculation, HYPE and well written articles.
Truth is their is nothing revolutionary about a file transfer.
Its a novel idea but people aren't stupidly going to stop using fiat like what they have been for centuries to save a few bucks on TX fees.

People also need that feeling of ownership, virtual currency of course can never offer this.
My argument here is that the whole idea is to eventually convert it to cash is it not?
Now, if that wasn't your cup of tea, the services/merchants that accept bitcoin are just as ridiculous and not much the same, as 4 years ago. The same reason I originally stopped mining.
Just look at the calling for story's of business accepting bitcoin.

Sadly the game rules are: To make any profit in this game, you sell your bitcoin to those caught up in the Hype. Heyyyy, Ponzi!

Bitcoin got its foot in the door of the worlds attention with the Chinese spike.
But as that is no longer the case, it is standing on its own two feet and beginning to kneel.
Greed has destroyed bitcoin, as well as hackers. Its original concepts have been long lost. But when the giant farms go bust, poetic justice will have been served. But pity the environment, same old human story!

Bitcoin has had more than 4 years to establish itself as a real currency/commodity. Sadly, it just simply is not going to happen, but a million forum users will tell you otherwise!
I'm not even going to elaborate on wallet failures. Myself and a friend also have had attacks from rogue mods on this site.

A smart man would be getting out now, if not a month ago, and come back in a month or two once things clarify more. But it is only human nature to dream!
