Well, somehow we need to show them that their thinking is not the right way to go... but i don't know if Boycott would do anything at all.
sure, it would strenghten alts which is their greatest fear. Stronger alts would provide us little people could get a slice of the pie. Bitcoin itself goes nowhere because inflation. So with this currency we are going nowhere. I am all for stronger altcoins and less marketshare for btc (can't hold the value anyways, pump and dump shitcoin). Bitcoins distribution is a joke. Why would anyone want to use that? Altcoin industry is distributed to much more people and much more equally than bitcoin is. So holding that down with their propaganda and actions is essentially robbing us altcoin investors. So you're just pissed you didn't know about Bitcoin sooner? You sound like a sore loser! Don't spend so much time complaining about what didn't happen. Spend your time trying to make the crypto currency you've put all your money in into something relevant. |

Wait, so you want to abandon Bitcoin, the original crypto currency so that other crypto currencies can flourish? Which will surely lead to some other crypto currency being the front runner for volume, publicity, and value per fiat. At that point would we have to abandon that popular currency?
What you're proposing doesn't make sense.
Abandoning Bitcoin will allow the press and general public (whom the Bitcoin community desperately needs for future success) to declare that Bitcoin is a failure. The skeptics were right, Bitcoin never had a future, "silly tech people with their make believe money!"
Instead of having a campaign to ruin what you want to be successful, why don't you start a campaign to publicize the use of Bitcoin to Main Street? Why don't you publicize the variety of crypto currencies available? Why don't you publicize the reason why a variety of cyrpto currencies is a good thing?
As a last point...consider why in the US the 13 different currencies that existed in the beginning (one for each colony) were consolidated into one single currency...because there simply isn't a need for more than one.

Bitcoin will be $1000 by the end of the year!
I heard this joke in July of 2014, hahaha, still cracks me up.

How is your interest more loose?
You have more interest in a wider variety of Bitcoin topics? Is that what loosing interest in Bitcoin means?

NIETHER!
To declare yourself as one party or another takes away the inherent right to choose or vote each year. Why take that choice away from yourself?
Change your poll to add a third option. It's the independents that decide elections...not those that already declare they'll always vote right or always vote left.

One vote means everything. If every person said "My vote means nothing" no one would vote and the government would have dictator rule.
I can understand why you're jaded, but it's not because your vote doesn't mean something. It's because too many people don't vote. If the 99% (all of them) voted for what they wanted they'd see the government they want.

Isn't this what the United Nations is for?
Calling it Government will guarantee that it never happens. We don't need a world governed by one administration. We need a world were all administrations have committed to following the same high-level of select standards.

Yes, there is debt. The question is who is responsible for this debt and why should the tax payer pay for banking mistakes.
We get the government we deserve. We get the bankers we deserve. This is incorrect. In the US we get the government we VOTE FOR and the bankers we PAY FOR. Stop voting for bad politicians! Stop doing business with bad bankers! There are better options for both of these choices. |

Thanks for sharing.
By the way, can I borrow $1000 from you?

what is "food domination" and why is it "very unclean"?

Get the richest people to spend their money! Give them things or services to buy or causes to support. Getting money back in the system (if this news makes you angry)!

70 days is 2 1/2 months or 10 weeks. SO that's equivalent to $1800 a week. If you make less then $93,600 per year ($1800 x 52 weeks) this is a good deal for you!

How many years of data exist to compare the recent swings against? Maybe these swings are within the normal range?

Do people use the world "Bitcoin" when they're referring to "blockchain"?
I don't think they do, but maybe I'm wrong.

First, that article is really old - 2013?
Second, which government? The US?
Third, no government can stop Bitcoin, however they can stop people from using it to buy things in their country or stopping conversions from banks, etc. Government doesn't have control of it (just like they don't have control over the internet).
Bitcoin is safe as long as there is electricity, a network, and people that want to use it.

It's always good to have additional options to share information.
I don't like Reddit's "open source", dos prompt style formatting. It's more difficult to read and there's so many meaningless characters and text that it I have to sift through more strings of text to see what's really meaningful. It's not efficient...it's hipster cool. They're old school formatting is ironic, it's supposed to be nostalgic and clever but it really just makes why that old school style was improved glaringly obvious.
Just my BTC4.5316.

Yeah, they need to follow the rules of the country they work in. The upside of this requirement (of providing legal name) is that you'll have legal consequence if Coinbase commits some fraud (provided they have money to collect from). Coinbase is a good company (thus far), with a legit address in the US. This should give you some confidence in their operations and how they use their information.
That said, if you're looking for complete anonymity Coinbase isn't the right choice.
