Bitcoin is the original crypto-currency, and therefore I believe in BTC. Other alts such as Ethereum and Litecoin are just copycats. Some of them may be technologically superior to altcoin, but Satoshi Nakamoto was the first person to have invented the idea of a digital currency, and therefore we must continue supporting BTC over the alts.

I believe that the easiest and the safest way to get rich with Bitcoins is to give out loans here in Bitcointalk. You will get nice interest, and there is no risk of default as a collateral is secured in the beginning. I have never given out a loan to anyone, but if I have enough coins with me, then I will seriously consider doing it.

If that is the case, the richest guy must be Mark Karpelès. In 2014, he stole around BTC650,000 from the Mt Gox users (in addition to another $50 million worth of fiat). Now he is enjoying his life, moving from one luxury apartment to the other in Tokyo.

Bitcoin will die when a previously unknown bug is discovered, which enables double spend / counterfeit. Or it will die when supercomputers make it possible to hack the private keys of online wallets. I don't think that BTC is going to last for more than 10-15 years. In technology, the lifespan is smaller. For example, first we had floppy discs. They were replaced by CDs. These CDs were replaced by DVDs and finally the Blu Ray Disc was invented which replaced the DVDs. Something similar will happen with the BTC.

Right now, I have around BTC0.03 in my wallets, and I am going to hold them till the price climbs to $100,000 per coin or even $1 million per coin. But  holding is risky, as a lot of people are reporting their online wallets getting hacked and the coins stolen. So the first thing to do if BTC climbs to $1 million is to get a good storage device.

I have lost small amounts of coins in the past. Once someone hacked in to my online wallet and stole the coins. In another incident, the exchange site which I was using went AWOL, taking my coins.

If he is caught for the second time, then he will end up just like Ross Ullbricht, and will never come out of prison alive. He was just lucky during the first time. The Hollywood mafia is very powerful, and they will make sure that this guy is gone for good.

Yes.. and also gold is accepted everywhere. Even in countries where the US Dollar is not accepted, you can go to the pawn shop and exchange your gold to the local currency.

I don't know whether he lost his interest in Bitcoin or not. But a few weeks ago, he posted this:


He seems to be pretty happy about the returns.

Do you have any evidence to prove this? Forget it. There is no point in arguing with those who are brainwashed by religious indoctrination.

High on weed?

I have no doubt that Hillary is intelligent. But the only issue is that she is using that intelligence to destabilize the world through warmongering.

The luxury and prosperity we are witnessing in London and the other British cities are a direct result of 300 years of exploitation of third world countries by the British Empire. All this wealth must be confiscated and redistributed to the former colonies. 

This is very significant:



To win the elections, Trump needs to out-score Clinton in these states: New Hampshire, North Carolina, Florida, Iowa, and Ohio. The first two will be the toughest.

Is there a reason for the Americans to invade Canada? I don't think so. IMO, Canada should merge with the US, and the Canadian states and territories (perhaps with the exception of Yukon) can retain their statehood once that happens.

That can be said about Alcohol as well. Do you favor banning alcohol?

We should not bother about the mad rambling from the vocal minority. More than 99% of the world population supports Olympics, and it is here to stay.

OK.. here are the stats:

Russian national debt: 14.92% of the GDP ($148 billion)
Spanish national debt: 100.14% of the GDP ($1.18 trillion)

The Spanish economy is like an inflated balloon... It can burst at anytime. 

It was a torture to read all that verbal diarrhoea. Russia and Iran are more or less neutral when it comes to the Karabakh conflict. Turkey on the other hand, is actively provoking the Azeris to exterminate the Karabakh Armenians.

Kasparov was a very respected individual, when he was concentrating on chess. He has ruined his reputation after getting involved in politics. Anyway... he wouldn't care I guess. He has realized that politics is far more lucrative than sports. 

Kim Dotcom is still roaming free in New Zealand. The Americans can't do him anything. The same with Edward Snowden as well. They want to control the internet, but are unable to do so.
