Bitcoin without doubt will be used for illegal purpose than regular needs.

No. Do you have any proof to support your claim? The dark market and gambling volumes are down from 2013/14, and as far as I know, most of the transaction volume is now being spent on legal shopping and trading. But then it is entirely a different thing, if Bitcoin is not "legal" in a particular country or region.
23282  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does any bank accept Bitcoin? on: December 04, 2016, 01:45:59 PM
None of them accept coins directly, as far as I know. But there are indirect methods. You can purchase these pre-paid debit cards (VISA/MASTER) which are enabled with IBAN and control panel. They comes with all the details needed for doing international wire transfer. You can load these cards with Bitcoins, and then you can spend them wherever you want.
23283  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Longest bitcoin transaction that you have waited? on: December 04, 2016, 01:43:07 PM
Once I had to wait 3 days to get my transaction confirmed. I was sending coins from my Blockchain.info wallet to the Localbitcoins wallet. The transaction size was quite high (although the amount was very small) and the recommended fee was something like BTC0.004. However, I manually input BTC0.0001 as the fee and send the coins. It took around 70 hours.
23284  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: December 04, 2016, 01:40:53 PM
Some of the users think that they can earn Bitcoins only from jobs which pay in BTC, and from mining. That is wrong. Why can't we do jobs in exchange for fiat, and then convert the earnings to BTC? For example, if someone offers me BTC0.001 for writing a 100-word article, and someone else offers $2 for the same job, then I am obviously going to accept the second offer.

whatever the result there's still a big majority in italy for staying in the eu so don't get your hopes up, even if they do get a referendum the aging italian voters will resist any measure that lead to their savings redenominated in a devalued national currency, greece was in worse shape and there was never a hint of them leaving the eu, i don't like it but it is what it is

Italy is not an economic powerhouse, like the United Kingdom. Without the trade with Germany and France, Italy will be in a very bad shape. So it is too early to predict the results.... When we'll be having the exit polls?

We will move away from oil and use sun light wind and hydrogen if our government helps
then we will accomplish our goals..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7I2-14y6-jM

Unless technology improves quite a bit, that will remain as a dream. The solar panels are very expensive, and they need constant maintenance. Wind power can't be generated everywhere. It is viable only in select locations. And with the current technology, the production of hydrogen is an extremely expensive process.
23287  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why are the Russian so happy with the win Trump? on: December 04, 2016, 01:26:02 PM
Trump has been changing most of the things he said before elections and I can't wait to see how things unfold, especially what steps he will take to set the relationship of USA with Russia as well as China.

He has moderated his stance on some controversial issues, such as illegal immigration. But there has been no abrupt U-turns. As of now, I expect him to keep most of his campaign promises, no matter how much the liberal losers riot against him.
23288  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Hate to Russia on EU level. on: December 04, 2016, 01:20:54 PM
Well, if the world hates Russia, why all countries allow Russia to be the aggressor. Why offended countries simply remain silent and inactive? Maybe because everyone is happy that the order of things which now exists in the world

Once again, you need to refer this map. For your kind information "THE WORLD" is not equal to NATO+US ALLIES.



The most populous countries in the world (China and India) doesn't have any issues with Russia.
23289  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Austria’s worried Jews pray Hofer will fail to win presidency on: December 04, 2016, 01:18:02 PM
the only people killing jews in europe are muslims. it seems that destroying europe by promoting degenerate liberal policies and flooding it with refugees is more important to most jews than their own survival.

Their own survival is guaranteed. If they face any issues in Europe, then they will just immigrate to their chosen land (Israel). Do you know how many Muslim immigrants have been accepted by Israel till now? The answer is ZERO.
23290  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Would you eat a human? on: December 04, 2016, 01:15:41 PM
A dude survived on mars planting potatoes in his own shit for months man.

For some people here, human shit is more "ethical" to eat when compared to human meat. Not me. Given a choice, I would select human meat anytime of the day (dead humans, obviously).
23291  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you hate muslems? on: December 04, 2016, 01:12:26 PM
not all Muslims are like that, in our country, especially Muslim Indonesia with people of different faiths we respect each other, as long as it does not start insulting / degrading of our religion, and almost most cases, especially in parts of the world is about blasphemy, and more ironically again which is always in abused ie the religion of Islam, and if we ever thought about how you live to respect the differences in this belief ...?

Although I would agree that the Muslims in Indonesia are more moderate than their coreligionists in countries such as Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, there is still a long way to go. Just a few years back, there were inter-religious violence in the Moluccas, where thousands of Christians were massacred by the Muslim immigrants from Java and Madura.
maybe you could look for his own reasons about the tragedy of Maluku, and once you find the answer, perhaps you can understand why such a tragedy could happen

As far as I could understand, the conflict in Maluku was provoked by the Muslim immigrants, who tried to seize land from the natives (who are mostly Christian and Animist). Similar incidents are ongoing all over Indonesia. West Papua for example...

I wouldn't mind if someone finish off the British Royal Family. They are having a negative influence all over the world, by spreading their pro-Muslim liberal propaganda. Also, I don't understand why the British taxpayers are funding this farce. Just yesterday, Prince Harry went on a photo-op in Guyana with some tribal people, which cost the state treasury a few million UKP.
23293  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Fuck your vaccines on: December 04, 2016, 01:06:17 PM
Without the vaccines, we would have never eradicated contagious diseases such as polio and smallpox. For every death or injury which resulted from vaccination, tens of thousands of lives were saved. It is stupid as well as extremely harmful to spread negative propaganda against vaccination.
23294  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why bitcoins illegal ???? on: December 04, 2016, 01:03:55 PM
Because the government can't control bitcoin, so the government make it illegal, because some of the user used it to buy illegal things such as drugs and weapons, and with bitcoin it is hard to trace down who bought the items, so the simple solution from government is ban the coin

It is not possible to ban the crypto-currency. The internet users are always one step ahead of the government. The law enforcement authorities may be able to detain a few people who are not that good with technology. But they will never be able to arrest the experienced users.

"40 school teachers, 9 doctors and nurses,  9 pastors and priests, 6 law enforcement personnel and 3 foster parents"[/b] WTF is wrong with this world? How those people can become school teachers? Aren't they testing them somehow to know whether they are psychos or not? And what about law enforcement personnel? They surely have tests for them.

These people can become the school teachers, because no one has the courage to question the leftist-liberal unions and the religious nuts. There is only one thing which both the liberals and the religious nuts agree upon - child pornography.
23296  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Where should Satoshi Nakamoto be placed on world's most powerful people on: December 03, 2016, 06:20:41 PM
I would not rate him as one of the world's most powerful people. His influence is quite limited, as only around a million people use Bitcoins right now. If  the usage expands in the future, then we can consider adding him to this list.
23297  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Blacks are the least intelligent race on the Earth on: December 03, 2016, 06:16:16 PM
Researches show that blacks in other countries have even lower IQ (85 in the US vs. 70 in Africa).

The reason behind this difference is the fact that the African Americans are an ethnically mixed group, while the African blacks are mostly pure-blooded people.

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/25/science/23andme-genetic-ethnicity-study.html?_r=0

A recent study found that only 73.2% of the African American genes are black. A further 24.0% of the genes were European, and around 1% was American Indian. As a result of this racial mixing, the IQ level of the African Americans is more than that of the blacks in Africa.
23298  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin help poor countries? on: December 03, 2016, 06:10:52 PM
i do not know how you define poor people or a poor country, but you have some misconceptions about that. you do not need to be educated to use those technical gadgets and you do not need much money to buy them. i think you are thinking of the super extremely poor, but they are just a minority.

You are absolutely spot on. Nowadays, smartphones are available for just $45 or $50 apiece (used smartphones are available for as little as $10). The data packs are also getting very cheap. Those who can't afford these will be a very small minority. IMO, 99% of the world population can afford a smartphone.
23299  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities on: December 03, 2016, 06:06:10 PM
Well, for my country it is not illegal but I can say that if you make a high amount of bitcoin and than exchange it for fiat currency they may ask “where did you get this money from” which might be hard to explain to goverments all around the world. So make bitcoin, spend bitcoin Cheesy ,means do not try to encash it.

Why you want to go through all these trouble? Instead of receiving the money in your bank account, you can meet up with some reputed trader from the localbitcoins and then exchange your coins for physical cash. How the government is going to track you?
23300  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Satoshi reveals himself, what would be of Bitcoin? on: December 03, 2016, 06:02:32 PM
I wish that he remain anonymous. If he reveals his identity, then he is likely to face all sort of legal issues, including charges that he is aiding drug smuggling and arms trafficking. What happened to Ross Ulbricht can happen to him as well. He will be jailed for the rest of his life, and all of his coins will be seized and auctioned by the FBI.
