United Nations serve the needs of a few countries only.It's useless.
Unless the VETO facility is removed from the superpowers, UN will remain as a toothless organization. Why we should consider five nations to be superior to the remaining world nations? Probably, money. Hmmm I do not think it is only a question of money but I agree with bryant.coleman, why is it needed this VETO? We can't call it a democracy vote where 1 nation = 1 vote but if one (or more) of those 5 nations will express the VETO, it can block everything (  this is really insane). |

@theymos, are you obliged to give them these 'data' or not? Awesome.  Use PGP if you want privacy.  You are right, I can't imagine someone read a pgp encrypted message and he doesn't know what the hell is write in that message (because he doesn't have the key for decrypt it  ). |

If I reported a post which was against the forum rules and it gets removed, I should get an increase in my Report post accuracy, should I not? But I don't see it happening every-time. I report a post and check whether it was removed or not and when it does, I check my accuracy but it does not gets increased every-time?  It happened just now, reported a post, it got removed, no increase in accuracy? If you report posts rarely, your rating may increase immediately. If you report a lot of posts, it will take sometime. I don't know the fomula used to calculate this. I guess theymos hasn't posted it here. .... and what about me, reported +200 posts ans still 'blocked' to 86% ? The reports are marked good or bad, but in this case I do not know if my reports were ignored because my report accuracy is still immovable at 86%. I have noticed an increase and decrease in my accuracy rating. When my report is considered and it gets deleted, my rating increases. This is because I report very few posts.
I don't think there is a special formula used here as if you report 100 posts and 70 are considered valid, your accuracy is 70%.
I have heard that there is a formula, but it is not public (I cannot find the posts made by theymos). |

My opinion/question:
Why everytime that there is a problem, someone will open a thread instead to try discussing with the other user through PM (personal message)? *just a general question, not regarding only with the OP but with all the users who have opened a thread here in this section.
Again : trust sistem is not moderated, and open a thread to argue the problem will only complicate more the situation.
Thanks for the attention.

I don't think its a good idea to stop new users from registering. For a new person introduced to bitcoin, it will be harder to join. Rather people will start selling accounts, which would kind of mean the same thing.
A better solution to stop the spam would be not allow new registrations from an existing IP. But even that has some limitations, as there can always be multiple people using the same IP. Disabling registrations through TOR, and checking cookies could be another solution.
i think this policy it is already in use... if you register with tor, bitcoin talk ask you money to enable the registered user... if i find the thread again i post here.... No, you are wrong. The registration through TOR is not disabled, the fee that you will pay if you'll register through tor it's only to enable the "post" function (not for nothing else). More info at: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=711968.msg8044683#msg8044683 you are right!!! the fee it's required to enable posts... not to register... but at the end, it is the same thing.... you are registered, but you are not enabled to post until you pay according to your "Unit of evil" Disabling registrations through Tor? Why would anyone want to do that? There are people out there that depend on Tor, for a few their lives depend on Tor working. Maybe some of them are into bitcoin, why would you close the door for people that actually need our help? Instead of an open minded community where people can discuss their ideas, ask questions and get help, OP wants to create a private club. Go ahead, I dont want to be part of it. I did not know anyone into bitcoin when I started here. All I know about bitcoin, I learned here and I would not have been here if an invite was required. We probably endured newbie jail together and now you are asking the admins to close the doors? For what? #1 "new users scam". Scammers scam, no matter how old their account is. Plenty of scammers already have accounts, what would stop them from inviting themselves? Lets just assume for a second they would have to buy an invite for some reason - because we all know this will happen once access here is limited further - scammers have the most reason to invest into an invite, because they have a plan to ROI. Honest people that come to ask questions do not. #2 "farming accounts" would naturally increase as a valid business if you further limit the supply of accounts. #3 "spamming everywhere" new accounts have a very hard time to spam. They are limited to a post every 360 seconds in case you forgot how awful long that is, create a new account and try to participate in a discussion. Even Jr. Members are still significantly limited. Definitely, TOR is not the problem. As a lot of users said "the spammer or scammer" will not stop to make their action against the newbie users also if the registration through TOR will be disabled. It does not exist a real solution to this problem, because the problem itself cannot be resolved (only with the continuing ban of farmer accounts). I don't want to see things like "[WTS] Bitcointalk Invites" in other forums. Read shorena's post will give you an idea why we don't want to see that.
...
Exactly, I have already explained here in this thread that make registration only through invites will complicate the situation because those scammer will start to selling invites outside the forum, and we should remember that this is a forum. Everyone is free to do whatever he wants, bit if he will catched he will be obviously banned (that's all). |

If this can be reported why can't it be stopped?
Stupid idiots have nothing better to do then torcher children.
That poor baby.
Very good questions. It seems that our politicians know just how to talk a lot, without taking any real actions to stop this tragedy and save this people, women and children. ISIS is pure evil and I really hope that soon or later someone will stop them. If I can say my personal opinion, regarding this fact: If any government really want to stop their action or better all the isis members they can do it. The real reason is they do not want to stop ISIS. Powers like USA, Russia or China can do this at any moment but it seems there is no real political will to do anything.
Shame on them.
Have you seen what is happening in Yemen, why saudi arabian government didn't take real action to stop the ISIS? Probably because it doesn't want. Why USA don't send military/soldiers to fight against ISIS? |

Interesting article, but I think get old is a part of the life so why 'destroy' or cancel it?
It will be the peer pressure. Even if you want to get old and die, your friends will talk you out of it. IMO this kind of stuff are for super rich people. Obviously, how can a poor/medium person pay this kind of 'cure'? Only the person rich that don't want to get old will pay for the 'experimentation'. |

Then monero should replace bitcoin (under this point of view) but why does not it replace BTC?
Maybe it will I do not think monero will replace bitcoin (as money). Because you can stay "anonymous" also with bitcoin if you know what are you doing.
Yea, trust third party honeypot mixers. Unfortunately the average joe doesnt know what he's doing Yes of course, a lot of people don't have the knowledge and they don't know what they are doing. This is the real problem, but with a few accorgment, you can have a good level of anonymity also with bitcoin. |

Monero is not anoymous (again)
It is the only effective option at this time to stay untraceable Then monero should replace bitcoin (under this point of view) but why does not it replace BTC? Because you can stay "anonymous" also with bitcoin if you know what are you doing. There are a lot of people who don't care so much about the anonimity, so as kingcolex "monero and Dash crowd are fighting constantly even when there is no place for it." but if someone want to say untraceable then he should use only monero or am I wrong? |

Bitcoin was never anonymous. It's pseudonymous, and it's up to the user(s) to understand that.
The beauty is that a savvy user can achieve either financial privacy or financial openness, depending on which option the situation requires.
This, if someone still say bitcoin is anonymous, I think he should first inform himself and after talk. It's a personal choice reveal our own identity or am I wrong? If someone dosn't want to be "pseudo-anonymous" he is free to reveal who is behind that address (or those addresses). bitcoin might become complete anon in future.
Forget it Use Monero to stay untraceable Not on the Monero train myself but definitely forget it, Bitcoin is becoming more transparent less anonymous the only ones anonymous take extreme measures to be. Monero is not anoymous (again) , neither Darkcoin aka dash. So please stope to say that thing . |

@Elwar,
since the april 15th is passed I think you can lock this thread, there was not any big news for bitcoin and it didn't affect the bitcoin price (positively).
I have found this thread 2-3 days ago, and I don't want to think about all those users that waited for at least 2 months this "epic news".

Do they also provide domain name registration? What about abusive use. I plan on using the website for a phishing scam, so I'd like a web host that ignores abuse complaints from 3rd parties. LOL! you are on the wrong forum, nobody here is going to help you. Browsers nowadays have built-in anti-phishing. Even if you do find a suitable host and registrar, you're phish will make it onto a list and be blocked by all major browsers. If it was a legitimate website then I would just pay for hosting with a credit card. And my phish isn't going to make it onto any list. It's just a webpage with 2 text boxes that say "Username" and "Password" It's hardly sophisticated, and I'm only targeting the dumbest 1% of users. I hope you are joking, the whole point of bitcoin is NOT to do something shady . I suggest you to inform yourself better and after come back here and argue, I think you don't know what is really bitcoin. Funny how people say this, yet think promoting illegal online gambling is just fine. It depends of which country you are "hosting" your dice or gambling site, but I think it is not illegal to "play" with bitcoin. Is bitcoin recognized as real currency buy the various governments? However I am not an expert of politics or laws so I cannot explain better if it is illegal or not. |

It is true UK is showing friendliness to bitcoin. But, I wonder, how long they'll continue. AFAIK, BitStamp & CEX.io are both registered from London.
Also Blockchain.info if I'm not mistaken. The UK is also friendly to setting up business... way better than other parts of Europe at least. wait it shows that its from luxembourg when i get on it or that does not mean that its in there? Waiting for more State.... bitcoin can really help a lot of companies to get out from the economic crisis. Here I was thinking that Amsterdam would be the next bitcoin capital, and now London is going to be the next hub. Whatever and wherever the bitcoin makes the campaign, all I care is about the welfare the bitcoin community.
I hope also Greece will start "to use" bitcoin, maybe as a good alternative. |

Maybe yes, bitcoin can die but the "technology" under it the blockchain can be adjusted and bitcoin (BTC) can be replaced with another one (maybe better than the actual, who knows).
We will know what will happen to blockchain after the next block reward halving, if there is not incentive to mine .... why the miner should "mine"? Only to support the network, and who will pay the bills?

still the most succeful is coke, the other are just niche market, the same with alt and bitcoin, bitcoin is the primary and most accepted while alt are just for the minority who got bored to play with bitcoin only
also this isn't exactly a good comparison, because bitcoin has utility, those are only "food" instead
People like choice and people want to have choices. The same goes for drinks and crypto. I personally hold 3 additional cryptocurrencies besides BTC and each of them s got some kind of unique trait which I like. Not to mention the fact it s much easier to make money on alts then on BTC. Yes why not, but you can't say : Yes it can. DMD Diamond s primairly store of value and it s going to be big. Yes, I have invested in it and yes you can consider this as a promotion. However, if I think it s smart to invest my own money in it, I see no reason why I would not recommend it to other people.
If you want to store value, the best choice at the moment is the gold. If you talk in the cryptocurrency world, there is not exist a coin that can considered primarily store of value". Just my opinion and maye I'm wrong. |
