No need for bit licences, just regulate as fiat.
Bitcoin going mainstream.
mainstream=regulation. there is NO other way. But how can you regulate something that is impossible to regulate. I mean sure you can put regulations on exchanges but guess what, new exchanges will be hosted in islands or some place where there are no regulations. Or new technology like p2p exchanges that are decentralized will arise. Also you can't regulate p2p transaction between private parties (for example you and me trade bitcoin for cash or you sell me something privately) They want to regulate that but it's impossible, so regulating Bitcoin is a losing game.

I've been curious about this BTC just today (Jan. 26, 2016) after I've read threads regarding this. At first, it seems to me that it's kinda easy to earn BTC/Satoshis. But as I go through the process of earning, I found out that it's hard. Patience is really of great essence to this. You need to wait, to work and to continue waiting and working in able to earn as much as you wanted. You have to gain referrals and to baffle them to click your reflink (tho it's not a good deed, I guess) as to earn commissions from them.
But then, I came to realize that this could help me in developing my attitude towards working hard. That's why I will try to keep holding unto this and try to work to gain and earn more as time pass by. For I know that good things are there to those who patiently waits and strives hard.
Making 1 BTC is as hard as making 393,9 USD as of right now, no more no less. I don't get why noobs think this is magic internet money where you can make money out of nowhere to be honest. Work hard and get more money, that's all. Of course, always have some luck on your side.

Lightning Network solution didn't exist back then. I guess he would be pro-conservative block size rather than hard forking, also segwit didn't exist back then as well. A lot of new stuff that satoshi didn't predict.

Everyone I know that bought during the last ATH has either sold the coins, or lost the coins because they are idiots that still didn't learn the lesson and left them on Cryptsy.

Just a rich troll trying to make people waste time trying to figure out why so many coins are being moved.
Just ignore
I can't wait for confidential transactions so we don't have to deal with this bullshit. I mean I wish I wasn't broke and people would comment on how im moving a ton of coins, but imagine you are the rich guy, i would be pretty pissed off that people speculate about my money movements. CT will make the amount of coins being moved invisible. God bless G maxwell.

No he doesn't need to apologize. Only the community is guilty of bitcoins current messy situation.
We have to stop scamming around and start working on making bitcoin work for the future.
What many of us are doing is just killing it, which also means killing your own investment.
Acknowledge existing issues and try to work on it instead of playing blame games and pump and dumps. We want something to change the world for the better right?
How is centralizing nodes by raising the blocksize a good way to solve the situation? the blockstream guys are the ones trying to solve the scalable problem without fucking up decentralization in process. Get a grip.

Reading this forum is more entertaining than any movie i've seen in the last 2 years. Is there anyone selling Popcorn directly in exchange of Bitcoin? that's as much I could buy with what I get with the sig campaign but im always happy to contribute to the Bitcoin economy. Maybe I can get some discount ones thanks to Mike Hearn and his R3 friend's dump.

We are already recovering. I didn't sell a single bit as well, not today Mike Hearn. This guy made a lot of weak hands lose their Bitcoins, but not me.
|

This is nonsense to be honest. Are you suggesting that anything done before that date you are requesting would be seen as invalid? Every early investor would lose their coins (those still holding them). I dont think this is nothing but nuts.

I've seen Roger Ver recently in an interview in the Dollar Vigilante saying that he wants to increase the blocksize because if you raise it more people can use Bitcoin. How does this make sense? Everyone can use Bitcoin now, if you can't afford the current fees you have bigger problems to solve.

Excellent post, we need more like this, no such as enough threads like this, we much teach the noobs how to spot bullshit like XT and Classic. Can't believe so much people are drinking the koolaid. "Yeah lets centralize nodes just to pay a bit less fees". Fucking ridiculous.

Mike Hearn was responsible for the flash crash this past August with the hard intro of XT, so this makes twice he has moved the market. He should never be allowed near bitcoin again as he has proven himself arrogant and reckless. The market recovered from August and will recover from this also just give it some time.
He will never be part of Core again, and Core is all that matters as we have seen with XT, no body ran nodes for that piece of shit, and nobody will run nodes for Bitcoin Classic and other alt wannabes. They are fighting a losing battle.

Mike Hearn revelation only reveals that the banksters are nervous as fuck about Bitcoin taking over, so they had to resort to this pathetic move. I hope people are buying all of this cheap coins before we are recovering in the next weeks. 0.12 coming soon with lots of improvements, sigwit and 2MB in april. Haters will commit suicide soon. Let's remember who Mike Hearn is before FUDsters get too excited: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DB9goUDBAR0

It should be pretty obvious by now. The banksters are starting to get shaky and resorted to a desperation move as their trojan horse wasn't working. Let's just hope that not a lot of morons panic sell as we will be recovering again in the next week.
|

Good point. It may actually be the case that Mike Hearn hasn't sold a single Bitcoin, he actually crashed the market just to buy more cheap Bitcoin while also publicly saying he doesn't own any anymore. But I think this guy is f*cked in the head at this point, and is a full blown bankster puppet by now.

Robocoin was always SHIT anyway. Did any of you actually try this thing? It was a total mess, you would need even a hand scan along with ID and a lot of other shit. Such ATMs only bring a bad feeling to people because they need a lot of credentials to get some damn Bitcoin.
|
|
|
Not because of the price would go up or down, but because decentralization of nodes is the first priority by anyone that actually cares about Bitcoin surviving long term.
They are raising the limit to 2 MB in April anyway so this should make noobs STFU for a while.

I just can't believe what Mike Hearn did. He first dumps all his Bitcoin, then he releases an article by the New York Time announcing the end of Bitcoin. Can't you believe it? This guy has absolutely no ethical value. Hearn is definitely correct. If you disagree, I suggest: get your head out of your arse and READ what he's saying: https://medium.com/@octskyward/the-resolution-of-the-bitcoin-experiment-dabb30201f7#.9mmfs7o10REAL problems with Bitcoin community... thankfully this: Still, all is not yet lost. Despite everything that has happened, in the past few weeks more members of the community have started picking things up from where I am putting them down. Where making an alternative to Core was once seen as renegade, there are now two more forks vying for attention (Bitcoin Classic and Bitcoin Unlimited). So far they’ve hit the same problems as XT but it’s possible a fresh set of faces could find a way to make progress.
I support BIP 101 and bigger blocks.

Really? You just sell all your's bitcoin. Cause the price is so good now.
The price is as low as it gets for 2016, anyone dumping all of their Bitcoins now will be considering suicide in a couple of months, but it's your life and it's your choice, so go for it if you want.

They are trojan horses trying to destabilize the decentralization of nodes, notice the insistency of paid posters to shill their crap altcoins no one care about (proof: no one runs nodes for any of that crap).
