Hmm, another Wall Observer fork.
Is this a sign of things to come in August?
Actually this is now the main fork, after the other two died dry. BitcoinNewsMagazine one was cool but people stopped posting there for no reason, Meuh sabotaged his own thread... Elwar, good to see you around, have seen news from Latin America? Things are worst everyday, Maduro is playing a theater in Venezuela, possibly setting the right backstage to his so dreamed coupe d'état. Brasilian President Temer is likely to lose his presidential term due to many corruption accusations. His lawyers are using the same strategy last president used before being impeached. Sounds like desperation. With so many countries on the brink of collapse I would not be surprised by that desperation leading to some sort of world war. That tends to be a nation's way of covering up their financial problems and pulling everyone together under some false sense of threat.

I know some people that keep all of their long term investments in fiat currencies that have the built in feature of losing value over time.

Taxes. Means by which governments finance their expenditure by imposing charges on citizens and corporate entities. Governments use taxation to encourage or discourage certain economic decisions. For example, reduction in taxable personal (or household) income by the amount paid as interest on home mortgage loans results in greater construction activity, and generates more jobs. Read more: http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/taxation.htmlSure, but you are not paying for your education and health care. Or are you?
I am the last person to advocate taxation, but some of guys have no idea about what personal responsibility - in the matter of health and perspective, means.
It is sad that people who are actually witnessing a new way to create a currency via Bitcoin still believe that the only way for things to get funded is through the threat of imprisonment. You dodged a question. I am all for you paying for your own shit. But do you? How much did you pay your tutors and how much do you pay your dentist? Are you saying that in your country you don't pay for your own dentist like they do in the US? I am a big fan of necessary spending programs. But extortion is still wrong. Extort: to wrest or wring ( money, information, etc.) from a person by violence, intimidation, or abuse of authority; obtain by force, torture, threat, or the like. http://www.dictionary.com/browse/extortIf governments were funded by rape would you still excuse it because of the necessity of government spending? Precisely, my friend. In my country, basic healthcare is covered by state. Including dentistry. Regardless, if you work or are even a citizen. Foreigners will get health care too. Aswell as social insurance and shelter, if they lose roof over their heads. BUT, blue collar workers, who make 1000 dollars a month have to pay 40% of their income to the state as a direct result and thats before youll get to value added tax and luxury tax. That is a norm in majority of central/western Europe these days. I am not kidding. If you are hot blooded American, who walks the way he speaks, then I have nothing but respect for you. Europeans (except for Irish and maybe British) dont have freedom do choose. I chose to leave the US because I do not want to give money to a country that uses the money to fund terrorists. Not having a choice does not change the fact that the current way of taking money to fund governments is wrong.

IMO, there should be only one type of taxation. Where I live, we pay indirect taxes in addition to the direct tax (income tax). The burden is getting more and more heavier with each passing year.
So you should only be extorted in one way instead of two. I guess that is better.

I had so much invested in the pre fork Wall Observer thread. Does that transfer over? Does this thread support more transactions?
As to the point of the old thread...we are all here discussing the bitcoin price but sometimes we get bored and want to talk about other things and there are some really smart people in this thread who have been around for a while.
As for Litecoin and Segwit. The price was about 3 dollars forever. It started to climb to around 9 when bitcoin started rising. Then they announced Segwit implementation and it flew up from there.

So...bitcoin transactions are getting cheaper...

I had a nightmare that the price dropped to $300. The nightmare part wasn't that the price was so low, it's that I could not get to a computer to buy more as I watched the price shooting back up over $800 finally getting to a computer but I couldn't log in.

The fix is in folks. It looks like a lot of bitcoin users have discovered this great currency called the dollar and are buying it all up. I heard that this dollar thing has a feature where it is made from paper. Bitcoin doesn't have that. Should we upgrade to get more users?
But I can buy lots of papers with 1 dollar, why should I hold them when there are cheaper papers around?

Not all human parts.
There is a part of the female human anatomy that I enjoy eating.

You don't have to use the term "gender" when referring to sex. That term only came about because people were too prudish to use the term "sex" when referring to male and female. The term "gender" was mainly used to refer to objects or words such as is used in other languages.

i think invest in bitcoin is much more safe and profitable because bitcoin price rising to higher value and we do not face to any risk when we invest our money in bitcoin and i if we invest our money in bitcoin we will be get a good profit from bitcoin in the future so i think bitcoin is much more profitable currency than altcoins.
have you just been hacked? that reads like every second post by cut and paste google translate noobs. There are many people that will buy other peoples' accounts. Legendary folks can make some decent money. I was offered somewhere around what would be over $2 per post for a signature campaign. I started doing the calculations of just logging and posting 10 posts a day from Thailand with $600 per month of extra spending money with no work. I could be like these other signature campaigners and post tons of shit posts or start arguments just for the money. But I know that would compromise my posts and make posting on here work instead of fun. I also got an estimate on selling my account outright that was over half a bitcoin. Plenty of people want the quick money.

God must be male because when he created Adam he said he created him from his own likeness.
If there is only one God with no female mate...why have a penis?

﷽ Say, "He is Allah, [who is] One,قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ - 112:1 Allah, the Eternal Refuge.112:2 - اللَّهُ الصَّمَدُ He neither begets nor is born,112:3 - لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ Nor is there to Him any equivalent.112:4 - وَلَمْ يَكُن لَّهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ
Billions of Muslims repeat this 5 times a day. are you saying God doesn't exist? then explain to me if you could have a potato and put it on a table and wait 10 billion years to see if it evolves into something intelligent. you can't outsmart yourself can you? You can't solve a problem without knowing the solution. I'm not claiming God does not exist. I believe based on personal experiences. I do not put a lot of faith in religions as I understand that propaganda is everywhere and has existed forever. If he does not beget (have children) and there is no equivalent...what would be the point of having a penis? Which is meant to be used to reproduce with a female.

So...how do you think new investors will react to stability when they're expecting rocket ships? Been flat all day. Sold enough for a new (to me) car. Less than 1 bitcoin. 2 years ago I sold 12 bitcoins for my car worth about 6k euro. Now with the price up I splurged with an $1800 car. Maybe this is what economists warned everyone about how a deflationary currency encourages people to save instead of fueling the economy. Or I have higher priorities of retiring early instead of being seen in a fancy new car.
