There's too much going on in the world of Ethereum right now. For stability's sake it would be better for Jaxx to stay away from ETC. It won't be nice to be caught in the middle of a crossfire.

Stay away from cloudmining. It's repeatedly been proven that cloudmining is not profitable. Maybe there are some that are profitable but it isn't by that much that it's worth investing a small amount of money. Just hold your coins. Much better.

The Pirate Party was started by a group of activists, poets and hackers on 2012. Recently it became the largest political party in Iceland and would possibly be forming Iceland's next government.
The radical party is calling for a 35 hour work week, total drug decriminalization and direct democracy. When I first heard about it, I thought it was a joke because who would call themselves as "Pirates" in the world of politics. But now seeing their progress and what they stand for, I would likely support them if I was an Icelander.

Some Chinese exchanges are known to do trades with themselves to create fake volume. It is a way to attract people to use the exchange. So it will not be surprising if Bitfinex has fake volume right now. There's also the BFX token gimmick to appease their users. They actually went for the bait too. Bitfinex must be so relieved that the users did and avoiding a mass exodus.

Christian ideas and philosophy are mostly not applicable in the modern age anymore. It is now outdated. But it had it's purpose during the Roman era as a movement for activism and non-obedience. It's ironic that this very movement helped establish the Roman Catholic church.

I wonder if they will pull this off. If they do, will the BFX tokens actually gain in value? Will they finally become equal to the loss? How long could that take? This is going to be an interesting journey from a large hack. Hopefully it goes better than the way MtGox went. Liquidation doesn't seem like a very good path either.
What gimmick is this? They lost their customer's funds and now their planning on releasing their own tokens? For what? To make money out of those poor people who lost money in their site? That is some whole new level of scumbaggery right there. Just withdraw all your BTC from the site and demand that you get the whole amount. If you had a 100 bitcoins on the site, and as a customer lost 36 on it, and were issued BFX tokes with a claimed value of 1$/BFX, then even you would try and see it to get as much value as possible and not return them and complain about being paid when they have outrightly said they won't be refunding coins. This mentality unfortunately just makes their case easier and allows them to scam their customers. I think a call to boycott Bitfinex is in order. How can they scam their own customers? And what did their customers say? I assume they all played along since I don't see anymore news about it. Stupid. I almost want to say they deserve to lose 36%.

That is funny. It is also very surprising to me that there were a lot of people who thought that this was real. Anyway I do not know what kind of sick mind would play around with ordinary people's gullibility like that. Maybe it is his idea of a joke.

Whatever and however you people think about them, they are nothing but mere puppets of the real rulers. This is the film they showed those politicians right before they took office. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iU83R7rpXQYAny questions?

Maybe he means that the CIA started ISIS under the orders of the Obama admin? We cannot discount these things anymore as conspiracy theories since we are all already aware what the US government and the massive corporations are capable of. Our cynicism of them is what brought us together as a community here in Bitcoin.

You guys act like the agencies actually want to win the war. If they eliminated all drugs they would be out of a job. They aren't trying to get rid of drugs. They have a system set up where they get to buy cars, guns, planes, all types of high-tech equipment, employ police on the street, secret undercover agents, prosecutors and judges, and a prison industry to lock all the offenders up. Its a business, and they are making a ton of money off a neverending "war".
This is a good point. The men at the top of the order must think all of us are really stupid. We fight and bicker against each other and they are laughing all the way to the bank. I saw the documentary about Ross Ulbricht and he is far from what the media portrayed him to be as this evil criminal mastermind. I find him to be a smart, loving and gentle person. His sentence was indeed too harsh.

One-in-five U.S. Republicans want Trump to drop out : Nearly one-fifth of registered Republicans want Donald Trump to drop out of the race for the White House, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Wednesday, reflecting the turmoil his candidacy has sown within his party.Nearly 63 percent have an unfavorable view of Trump. Among all registered voters, some 44 percent want Trump to drop out. That is based on a survey of 1,162 registered voters, with a confidence interval of 3 percentage points. That is 9 points higher than his support for the presidency in the latest Reuters/Ipsos tracking poll registered on Monday.
First of all, change the thread title. Trump is not dropping out. Second, this could be just black propaganda coming from the Democrats. Trump has a personality that most people would hate but I think he has the wits to turn the US around and "make it great again."

i don't think it's even slightly comparable to war. olympic games promote camaraderie among athletes and nations. here we can have friendly competition with people from other parts of the world without having any restrictions from religion and culture.
+1. I don't know what motivated the OP for thinking that it is all the same as a "war but without guns." What the Olympics stand for is the opposite of what he's trying to say.

There are women who show their bodies thru webcam for money. I'm not sure how they get paid, maybe paypal or some sort of ewallet? Suggesting for them to accept BTC and then teaching them how to cash out should bring more women in the community even if they are only in it to get paid.

There is a new report that humanity has already used up a full year's allocation of natural resources including the most needed one like water, clean air and food. This should pose a lot of concern because we are using more than what the Earth can replenish in a year. I don't know about you guys but I think the problem should be made of the highest of political agendas for governments all over the world. It's time for them to put a hard stance on the issue and save the planet. Here is the link to the report http://www.france24.com/en/20160807-earth-overshoot-day-resources-depleted-quickest-rate-ever-2016

Abolish the Olympics because they are "like war with the guns", really? Isn't that a good thing when every country takes part in something, competing with each other, sharing a bond and brotherhood thru it all? All that without killing each other. But I could agree to abolish it for different reasons because of the politics behind it and it is wasting tax payers' money.

Some people in the U.S. government are the ones who promote much of the world terrorism. This is to give them an excuse to have a war on terror. Then, while they act like they are fighting terror, they do more terrorizing, just to promote the wealth of some wealthy people who pay them to terrorize covertly. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) The US uses fear so that they would be needed and also to gain political and military influence around the world. Watch CNN and all you see is war, crime, terror. Imagine all the Americans watching this day in and day out brainwashing its citizens. Oh wait... CNN is now broadcasted all over the world and a lot of people from other countries need to know what's going on, so they watch it. The point is do not fall prey to their predatory ways.

Shaping up as big year ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) By following the progress since you posted this, I don't think it will be a rosy picture on 2017. The BitFinex hack had another negative impact on BTC and is quite a turn off for some of the more skeptical users. The case for using BTC is getting weaker and weaker every year and for most who have dabbled with it, consider it more of a fad than a revolutionary payment platform. Others think it's only good to invest in and that's it. 2017 will be more of the same like right now.

They should pool together whatever resources they have left and look for a good lawyer and fight this. If Bitfinex gets away with this they'll continue on playing with their customers by releasing more scam tokens or some other gimmick. What are these tokens backed by?
