The issue of bias does not matter here in that when government wants to go after an individual they wont care whether they are allowing another criminal run and wont even care the people that would be hurt in the process as in the case of BTC-e and even the excuse of verification is a bogus one because the funds kept there is under adequate records and asking for records means something fishy in which I see as another quest to get some more people especially those with large funds on the exchange by the time they come out and disclose their identity. The fact still remains that even all the popular exchange sites, the best is not to at any point in time keep too much funds there.

Your bank will be the one to do this even, me too I made a transfer left my account but did not arrive at the destination you dont go to the receiver to complain since you trust them to always be truthful when they tell you. I did this and the money was reversed within 24 hours because they are the one who will know whether it delivers there or to another account but the onus is your bank. I hope its not too late and do well to update in case you get it resolved.

Its unfortunate that unscrupulous individuals will have to exploit situations like this and that's one needs to ensure he double checks whatever site he is visiting at any point in time. I expected the administrator of bitmixer,io to have stayed longer so as to keep the thread of stopping business live for a larger coverage in other to prevent situations like this but at the same time, you are responsible for yourself and the responsibility is on you to check and check again.

After reading the thread and your responses so far, I am convinced that you are more professional in how you handle matters and even with the last review the user gave up there, it shows you are willing to help and I will equally offer some more advises,

1. Why not carry out an extensive research to understand the countries where this work perfectly so you include it your Op?

2. You also need to put a disclaimer as well concerning how you will guarantee them as well as the model of phone that goes along with your configuration and any deviation from that will result in extra costs on the part.

3. Is there a way you can make this legit or get from the supplier at a reduced price and sell the pre-paid one at a discount for heavy users of internet because with $100 I can get data that will sustain me for 2 years.

At this point, I think the will of the people have been supported even though I think Coinbase does not have any responsiblity but we are way past that now and the next is what I will refer to as Zero sum game where the outcome on January 1st will be at Coinbase disadvantage for caving in the first place because if the price of BCH should increase more than what it was as at 1st of August, then they will be paying more and if the value has gone down, I am sure they will be paying as well for delaying up to that length before crediting their customers.

What made it what it is today in my opinion is the calibre of people who stood strong and the lose faith in bitcoin even in the face of pressure or any any discouragement to abandon, they stood still and be their faith in which there were able to spread to several members who bought into the dream and its what it is today. A lot of people have left, while some are still standing and for the reason why you and I are still here, we have contributed our own or still contributing to what its going to be of bitcoin tomorrow.

The bolded part is not true at all because its never to late to buy because you dont buy bitcoin with bitcoin but with Fiat which means several amount of money are coming into bitcoin with lot of funds both new comers and existing members who will even be few considering majority will just seat back and watch the value increases. In short those coming in means they can afford it and even if the price to increase to $5000 people will still buy and the moment its too late to buy, thats the beginning of the end of bitcoin.

The point at which decision is to be made as to buying or not is what differentiates who will make more profit and who will lose. The market is there and the swings is expected but for a newbie he/ she will have difficulty being ruled by emotions without understanding the reason why there is an increase in price or dip in price. As a golden rule for me, buy only when you can afford to lose irrespective of the direction and sell when you are comfortable with the price at the time and not because of the uncertainty or panics.

Relying on individuals using bitcoin to achieve stability will take forever without even achieving it be ahse humans will always trade for profit to the extent of even trading currencies through the Forex market but those currencies to a large extent enjoys some level of stability but they still trade with it to achieve more profit not to talk of bitcoin whose volatility cannot be predicted. So, stability for now is not achievable.

I would say they are both problems and at the same time comes with its own prospect depending on which one you decide to see and make decision after all when the speculations goes right or wrong, it affects everybody rather than only the one who speculate but the problem I see there is that it keeps putting bitcoin in the category of emerging currency which big organisation that would change the fortune of the technology less interested in it's adoption.

Even though government by default always want to be in control if everything to the point of what we are thinking, I am not sure they are terrified about bitcoin because over here, its what you know and understands that can terrify you bhf it seems the enforcement agencies to know or what to talk about bitcoin which therefore .sans, how will they be scared of what they don't know?

Like several people have agreed, the only similarity I see for now is just the B present in both and the fact that one is an off shoot of the other. And even the most popular characteristics which is price, they are both walking in two extreme directions which makes them unrelated. Whether in the future, their path might aligned and we can then say they share some similarity but for now, I would wait on the future.

We are all expressing optimism which I feel its nice for this kind of investment coming from mother Russia but without taking cognisance of the reaction of the Russian government in relation to crypto and especially bitcoin in which they have made it clear they are not  favorable to any form of anonymity and more so, a project as massive as this will definitely attract the attention of government.

The only relationship I see in the fact that they are both digital in that most people who hold dont have the physical coin in the case of bitcoin and the raw gold kept at home in the case of gold aside that, I dont see any relationship. I dont trade in Gold neither do I know anyone who does and equally in bitcoin. They have their two independent consumers or clients and any relationship in the price of the two is function of coincidence.

The advantage that increase in bitcoin price offers based on my point of view is that it shows it reacts to the general feeling of the community and the outcome has been predicted by many which even negate the belief in some quarters that bitcoin is a ponzi scheme or a bublble rising without any reason. Another advantage that I also see is the compensation for those who held strong even in the face of uncertainty during the time of crash where several people have lost their faith.

There is actually a possibility to this happening because at the current price quite a number of people cannot afford to own a bitcoin no because its too expensive but because the money is too much for quite a number of people can afford to lose considering the disclaimer in which one by default must accept to before entering or parting away with money to pursue bitcoin. Eventually when this happen the early entrants will continue to live fat while the ones scrabbling for the satoshis will continue to do that.

Even though I really yet to understand the effect of this in bitcoin with the series of conflicting views, I would really appreciate it more if it can put a rest to his issue of scaling or no scaling, and also on the release about the continuance increase in fees that would still be witnessed despite all this by the lightening developer. If all this won't happen, then I am not surprised neither am I happy about since the status quo will remain the same.

I will say that bitcoin is already improving the country's economy but the effect is still not felt due to the number of people involved in particular compared to the entire population that have not done otherwise. For example everyone involved one way or the other have been able to meet their needs and even help family and friends through their earnings that bitcoin made possible and this has improve their financial status at the minimum and as part of a country the economy their immediate family has increased because of that which can then be said to affect the state as well.

In the past it would not be necessary because to my understanding, it would mean because the law does not acknowledge it, it does not exist but in about some weeks ago, there was a proposed law by the US law makers to make it mandatory to disclose. If it pass, then there is a mandatory obligation to disclose such information and even at the embassy. A quick check on the law makes it so which has been interpreted to make the environment more hostile to the users of crypto-currency.

Having read the news, I must say I am saddened by if it eventually comes to play because it would all the controvery about August 1 that was expected to solve among other issues concerning fee reduction will be a total waste of time and we will be back to where we started from. I am sure the discussion will still get heated in the coming days but hopefully we get something to rely upon because the way they are going, they might be nobody left in bitcoin.
