TryNinja answered it pretty clear for you.
Plagiarism is one of the most common ways why a member can be banned permanently in the forum and there is no escape from that ban not even a new account will help you start a new life here in the forum. Just take a look at what you did you just copy pasted a post way back January and just added a few additional words without anything new to it, what you did is simply plagiarism not even adding a few words of your own will simply make that post something you have worked with.

Stopping losses is really a good function but I don't think it is meant for HODLers in the market but for the traders in the market. If you are hodling it means you are in it for that coin in the long run where you are looking for the bigger picture as a hodler using the stop loss function only means you are ready to quit hodling at any moment with only 5-10% loss which I don't think is a good idea if you are a HODLer but for a trader it is important as  using stop loss it their only way of protecting their capital as they would need it in their future trades which HODLers won't be doing in the near future. The only way I'll use the stop loss function as a HODLer is when I know I'll be shorting my cryptocurrency hoping to buy more at a cheaper price.

I have to hand it to you, you gave an effort on doing this on giving a solution for not paying income taxes for your crypto earnings but you are forgetting that double taxation avoidance on the word itself just removes the chances of a person on paying the same kind of tax by different countries. So even if you won't be having taxes in UAE you still have to pay taxes on the country you are originating from as a resident citizen and that's including the 115 countries they have with agreement with. Your solution doesn't really solve a thing plus it is not affordable for a lot of people.

Isn't your scenario a little bit farfetched? Not unless that cop or thief is particularly searching for non-encrypted BIP seeds in your house I doubt that even if they found your seed phrase in your safe they would have any idea on what those words are used for. Supposed that they are looking for seed phrases in your house wouldn't it be much simpler for you if you just jumbled up your seed phrases stored in your safe and just keep the decoding sequence for that paper wallet elsewhere? I just doubt that any of your solutions are more secure especially if it involves around other services which requires a device.

The OP is a great example of how one believes at something without even doing a research in the first place. Most newbies here only just read the headlines of news without even going through the content and doing a background check after leading to most of them being part of either FUD and FOMO. I mean can you get real for a second? An account that has been dormant for years would just post "nour", and you will focus more on putting a meaning out of that one word instead of thinking the possibility that Satoshi isn't the one controlling the account anymore? If you continue doing this you will be a victim of a lot of headlines in the days to come.

Timberwolves had the biggest win this season so far by defeating the Houston Rockets and overcoming the 19 point gap showed a great performance from the team overall. They have shown terrible offense and defense in the first half but luckily the Rockets started missing some buckets and they slowly took the lead in the 3rd quarter. Harden also got pissed (which probably messed up his game) that he ain't getting any trips to the free throw line every time he tried to pick up some fouls. RoCo was a great motivator to the game and I am seeing that he has replaced Jimmy as the leader of the pack.

Quick Notes

• Chris Paul only made 5 pts (including 2 FTM)
• Rose scored nothing (4 FGA)
• All the Wolves' starter scored double digits (Yes including Wiggins)

You might probably looking at it in the other way. The government is not against or concerned in decentralization per se but the ones involve with it. If you have seen in the news already the problem the government is having on regulatiion is not about the cryptocurrencies itself but the criminal activity involve with it. Having a decentralized cryptocurrency circulating around the world made it enticing to a lot of criminals to take advantage of the situation and until now they are profiting from it. The government is facing a dilemma on how they will handle such problem at the same time their citizens can freely benefit from these cryptocurrencies.

One thing to keep in mind though remember that Steam pulled out from accepting Bitcoin payments due to the massive surge of transaction fees it had during last year which rose from 20 cents to 20$ just to send a payment for buying a game which is not viable for them, no gamer in his right mind would buy a 19$-49.99$ game with a additional transaction cost of 20$. So it is really not about people not wanting to spend their BTC because they are saving it but it is about not sending BTC because it was not cheap as they use to during that time.

Merchant adoption during those time really took a hit as it had discouraged a lot of businesses on accepting BTC as a mode of payment due to high transaction cost. But hopefully transaction fees will stay considerably cheaper now and it would really help a lot on attracting back businesses to accept it again.

I really don't get how one entity/establishment can increase the adoption for Bitcoin if its customers don't know what and how to use Bitcoin in the first place. Yes it could increase awareness on seeing Bitcoin payments are available to this establishment but does it also convince the customers to pay in Bitcoin as well?

A perfect example for this is Steam which had accepted Bitcoin previously in the past, even though their customers are most likely technologically inclined it didn't change the fact that paying BTC to load their wallet up is just one of the many options available to do so, it didn't made their customers switch to Bitcoin payments right away as it is not the intended effect on just adding a new payment method to the several options they already have. The most likely people benefiting from this are the ones who already have Bitcoin wallets at their hands.

Email verification of accounts won't be as good as SMS verification. Like what the OP said banned members know how to create new accounts with new email addresses via a VPN network so email verifications at this point is useless. SMS verification although it might be more effective I don't think that new users would like the idea giving away their number to register an account in a forum, it might even discourage potential good members to even join the forum. Honestly I really don't have any good idea on how we will separate the spammers from good members when it comes to account creation without sacrificing the convenience for all of them, including the people who are not spammers in the first place.

This is not the first time a project has promised to revolutionized the payment system in the world. And this is also not the first time a project developer has talked trash on Bitcoin (or any other cryptocurrency) just to promote their own project. Initiative Q is just like any other sub-par projects out there that is promising their investors that they will earn from them, and even though they are not calling themselves as a cryptocurrency, what they are offering are units called Qs which at on its own has a value.

They can call it whatever they want but what they are doing is basically launching their own cryptocurrency using their invite-only scheme to make it look more "exclusive" for its investors. I'm just tired seeing these kinds of projects mentioning BTC in a negative way to somehow make a point out of it.

I never had considered the Padlock Icon as a sign of a website being legit or not. The Padlock Icon is only a sign that the website is operational under the SSL/TLS protocol which means the data you are inputting even though it is encrypted will still be accessed by the one in the receiving end of the website, the only ones who will have a hard time accessing your info are third party users looking to hijack your info from a SSL secured website. There are other obvious ways to detect a phishing website such as looking for trust seals and certifications of reputable clients. Here is the website of footlocker for example, you will see at the bottom of their website the trust seals of both Norton and McAfee which if you click you will find more information about their certification for the website.

I have to agree with you. I myself won't report anything officially with regards to my signature campaign earnings as it is just enough to fly under the radar of our taxing bureau, what I meant about that is the amount of weekly earnings I receive from my campaign is also counted in the income tax bracket where citizens are exempted from paying tax in my country so I don't need to worry about breaking any laws.

Another scenario I am concerned with is the trouble it will produce if I reported my earnings in a signature campaign. The headache and time it will cause if the taxing department issued a requirement of proof about my "signature campaign earnings" will be too much for me. Of course I can't give no more than the spreadsheet link of the campaign I am participating as proof where I also need to to convert the BTC payment I receive in its fiat currency equivalent every time I receive a payment which honestly I haven't done so far.

Maybe virtually they cannot see you evading your taxes but physically they can. The way they see how you are living in which in their eyes does not satisfy with your income makes them suspicious on how you can afford such lifestyle even though your income does not support it. This is how most of the tax evaders gets caught because of how they live which contradicts on how much they earn.

Is there really such tax exemption? Because I wonder why all europeans still use Euro if they can avoid taxes if they purely use cryptocurrencies as mode of payment. Sounds dumb isn't it? Because if there is such law that exist no one will be using Euro today in order to avoid taxes.

As a Minnesota Timberwolves fan I am very satisfied with the results against the Spurs. We rarely see a dominant games like this being performed the team a 128-89 game shows us that the team is capable of winning big gaps compared to when we have Jimmy Butler where we rely on hos game winning shots often. The biggest margin in the game that the Wolves has given is 39 points which was really unbelievable for me. One annoying thing to keep in mind is Thibs is still not using the bench even if the lead was big there is really no point on using your starters if you know that the opponent won't catch up.

It is not actually about their desire but banks need to improve it first before the customers even get to the point demanding it. Because once they demanded a certain feature and you can't deliver it they will most certainly move to a bank where the feature is already available. So for banks to stay competitive they really must invest in their R&D as even though Banking is a traditional business they must still find ways on how they can improve their technology to move forward with what we have now.

It is easy to be optimistic for now because he still have a little over 4 years left for his prediction to come true. This optimism that he is bullish to BTC is because he is confident enough that he believes too much on his prediction coming true. But if we are not even close to 20,000$ by 2022 he will be eating his own words or have come up a brilliant reason why it didn't happen in the first place. The sad thing about his prediction is all of it are just bullish sentiments without any logical reason backing it up, which is pretty unreliable for a lot of people.

Teams participating in the Europa Leagues doesn't really need to win the trophy in order to qualify in the Champions League, it will always depend on how they finish in the standing of their own league in the country. Right now since Italy is ranked # 3 in the UEFA coefficients they have 4 teams participating the Champions League while they have 3 teams participating in the Europa League. A.C. Milan has two ways to qualify for the Champions League the first one is to finish the in the top 4 of Series A and the second one is to win the Europa League. 

Yeah I know that as well, but based on what I have read so far even if the transaction is already confirmed the OP still doesn't see the funds reflecting in his account. So if we don't have more details about his situation we really don't know what exactly had happened to his confirmed transaction, and I am just giving the OP one of the possibilities on what had happened with his BTC.

I really hope that A.C. Milan will be one of the four teams in Serie A who will be qualified for next season's Champions League as Europa League isn't really enough for us fans out there, it has been too long now. It is great to see that the Serie A is gently climbing back up but I don't see them overtaking La Liga or Premier League anytime soon, it will always depend on how Italian teams will play in the Champions league particularly Juventus who has the best shot of winning the title, if they performed well we might see some more big names coming into the league.
