The future is sure very brigth for  BTC and cryptocurrency, Governnment  and individaul will get to embrace BTC soon as a major form of  global currency, tht is sure to pay soon.

Lets be real with this right now, the government isn't going to support bitcoin or any sort of currency which is going to lead to them losing the control over the currency which they currently posses. They're just not going to do that as they're not going to hand it over easily.

People must change from the bottom up to force gov, because it won't change from the top down, trust me when I say that.

When you plug in your ledger nano and download the ledger nano software from the google chrome apps store (as all ledger wallet stuff is an addon for chrome) then you'd be able to get receive, and send addresses. This is all put here (https://www.ledgerwallet.com/start/ledger-nano-s) and should be put on the ledger that you're using in some sort of paperwork that came with it.

Where'd ya but it from?
3103  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cartel, Price Suppression on: March 27, 2018, 05:28:07 PM
People only like talking about price manipulation when the price is being held at a certain price. Not when the price is going up massive amounts, that's the time that people don't care and they like to reap the rewards of price manipulation. It's crazy when you think about it, the selective calling out of issues -- but when it helps them people don't care.

They only care when it hurts.
3104  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why you Still believe in Bitcoin? on: March 27, 2018, 05:25:26 PM
Because I know that there is a place for it in society, I know that there its going to be needed at a point when people notice the amount of money that they're spending to the wire transfering companies, the check cashing companies, and the banks. People don't know the amount that they're being screwed with right now, they don't know the amount of money that's being stolen from them.

Once they notice, Bitcoin will be used by people. Not all people, but people. There's a large place for bitcoin, I know that much.
3105  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin price chart (What is next?) on: March 27, 2018, 05:11:02 PM
Don't take my word for it, check the following chart
I don't think that a few arbitrarily placed red lines drawn on a chart is going to convince me of Bitcoin's future price movements.

Bitcoin's price movements are based on a combination of its functionality and what speculators perceive could be its functionality in the future (and admittedly, often what speculators think that other speculators will think in the future).  This perception could change at any time.

You can't use the past to predict the future, and if you keep trying to, you will end up losing money.

Even though it can't be done, more and more people will try to do it. That's how it works, people think that charting and all these weird techniques are actually going to show them the way with trading. The people that are charting know that it's not working -- they're just going to sell their services and methods to make money cause their charting can't do it.

It's smart for the people selling, they're able to make money off of fake lines and calls.
3106  Economy / Economics / Re: The EU Threatens To Break Up Google On Antitrust Grounds on: March 27, 2018, 04:47:40 PM
They may threaten to break them up, but it isn't going to do anything anyway. It's just to scare some investors who don't have the sort of mentality to hold through the bullshit news. What's the EU going to do? Google is a massive company that will simply lobby their way through issues if they need to -- if it was a real problem it'd be solved already.
3107  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: German National Tourist Board will accept Bitcoin ? on: March 26, 2018, 08:54:58 PM
This is a great news for crypto. First from France and now from Germany. Hope to see more adoption of crypto in the EU and the rest of the world.

While this is goodnews, we can't inflate the news that we're getting. This is a random tourist board that isn't going to mean anything anyway, we need the companies inside the country accepting -- not government agencies. Both are nice, but we need more companies then governments as there are many more companies!
3108  Economy / Economics / Re: Rapper Cardi B erupts over taxes, asks where the money is going on: March 26, 2018, 05:56:17 PM
I don't think it's too hard to find some data on where taxes are going, and you'd be able to see that the US is wasting so much money on uneccessary of corruption ridden things. I don't understand if people like Cardi B are dumb, oblivious, or just trying to stir up some news by saying something that everyone supports.

Everyone hates taxes for spending money on some useless things. That's nothing new, even because some random rapper said it.
3109  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: what do you think after seeing this chart? on: March 26, 2018, 01:11:25 PM
looks like a bunch of squiggles with no correlation to me.

i don't think there's any point comparing the start of this year to the start of the previous 3 years. they didn't have the aftermath of a giant bubble to contend with. i don't want to compare the start of 2014 because that would be too damn depressing.

I mean, that is everything which is TA explained in one sentence. Just a bunch of lines and squiggles on a screen which make things look nice, nothing actually correlates to antyhing. The market moves, some people win and some people lose --> that's how it works.

I don't think of anything after seeing this chart.
3110  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance issue on: March 26, 2018, 12:17:51 PM
This is a well detailed story line but is there a link to this perspective you just shared here? Although I read about the move to Malta on Bloomberg:. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-03-23/the-world-s-biggest-cryptocurrency-exchange-is-moving-to-malta?srnd=cryptocurriences

It would really be sad to have Binance suffer any crackdown. It's the darling exchange of many now.

That's the big reason that they are moving to Malta, or at least starting to move.Because they're moving to a place which is going to be friendly towards crypto and not just put legal sanctions on them as they're trying to do business.

Makes sense for both sides, Malta wants jobs, tax dollars, etc and Binance wants security from countries that don't support crypto.

Yeah OP, I'd just close your eyes to some of the 'news' for sometime. These news stories are made to move markets, sway opinons and so on. Not everything is true.
3111  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the best cryptocurrency for micropayment. on: March 26, 2018, 12:09:10 PM
It doesn't matter what has the lowest fees, it matters who's going to accept it. If you use some random crypto with low fees you're just going to have to exchange it after the fact and then incur fees when you exchange, so it means what's going to get you the best bang for your buck and for your time (because time is money). So I would always just stick with ETH and BTC as the fees are falling and you could actually use those.
3112  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When we can expect mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies? on: March 26, 2018, 03:57:31 AM
No one knows when it's going to come, I personally think that the adoption will come in when the tech is able to show that it is on par with credit cards, debit cards, and other things which are easy for people to use. The LN (lightning network) is what this will be, once people are able to use this with mainstream adoption with all the wallets supporting it, exchanges, companies etc.

LN is what we need. We need to compete with credit card companies.
3113  Economy / Economics / Re: Forex is investment is a country on: March 26, 2018, 03:00:39 AM
What are you saying, that bitcoin isn't a safe investment because it is not supported by anything? What about by people wanting to use it, that's the exact same as the USD, its price is determined by money supply and money demand.

He may be saying that and if that is what he is saying he'll soon notice that no stock is backed by anything, it's just backed by the full faith of the company which isn't anything anyway -- most stocks are worth more in stock then the company is worth with all of the assets. So yeah, if the company is liquidated nit everyone can get everything.

Everything is risky, that's how investments work. Bitcoin may be more risky then other investments, though they're all a big risk.
3114  Economy / Economics / Re: Forex is investment is a country on: March 26, 2018, 01:20:35 AM
Investing in BTC looks more profitable than investing in foreign currencies!

BTC does not issue national boundaries, and the number of issues is certain, which can effectively reduce the risk of inflation caused by the national legal currency!

It may look more profitable, but it is also MUCH MUCH MUCH MORE RISKY. It's not something you're going to want to get into if you can't handle the risk tolerance that comes along with Crypto. This is why people stick to traditional investments, because they can't handle the risk financially and emotionally.

So yeah, don't get into bitcoin and other cryptos if you can't handle the fact that it could all be gone in an instant.
3115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO Token Distribution with MyEtherWallet / Trezor Newb Question? on: March 26, 2018, 12:49:53 AM
You'd use your normal wallet, as your tokens would just be stored on it seperately of any other token (or ETH) which you have on the same address. So you dont have to do what the person says above me and get a while new address for every coin. You could do that if you want to do something for security purposes, so if one address was wiped you wouldn't lose all of your investments, But from a technical standpoint, it's not NEEDED.
3116  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it true that bitcoin immune from hacking & fraud ?? on: March 26, 2018, 12:34:53 AM
It's not that it's immune to hacking and fraud, it's that no one has been able to hack into bitcoin yet. The keyword in that entire sentence is YET, there could be a time where a fatal flaw is found and it could screw the entire marketplace (given it would probably have a fix with a soft fork put out quickly and wouldn't hurt people) but this is the risk that we all take in using a currency which is backed by coding.

So it's not immune, just no problems yet.
3117  Economy / Economics / Re: Anybody know what happens when Bitcoin hits 21M circulating supply? on: March 25, 2018, 11:59:39 PM
No more rewards for people in bitcoin for mining, and I'd guess the rest of it would have to be made up by fees being increased. Though we wouldn't have to get to the amount of fees were at now due to the fact that the mining equipment is going to have to innovate, prices are going to decrease and mining is going to get quicker --> that's how the world works.

So yeah, no more rewards.
3118  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Binance Moves its Headquarters to Malta Seeking More Crypto-Friendly Legislation on: March 25, 2018, 11:15:55 PM
Honestly they're a smart country for doing something like this, they're going to reap all of the rewards that come with accepting new tech. They're going to get all of the new jobs, all of the tax money, and everything in between.  It's a smart move, as all of these crypto companies are going to need a safe haven where they know they're going to be able to hide from regulation with.

Bright country with some bright leaders. Who knows what the banks will do in Malta.
3119  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The UK Government Is Launching a Cryptocurrency 'Task Force' on: March 25, 2018, 10:39:56 PM
This was more or less expected to happen at some point, there was going to be a time when countries start to think that bitcoin and other cryptos are going to be a threat to them. It was even shown that the UK was nice towards blockchain companies but they're being hostile towards crypto (which is what most governments are like)

They don't want to give up their power, and we didn't expect them too.
3120  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be used as a national foreign exchange reserve in the future? on: March 25, 2018, 08:27:14 PM
I mean yes it could, any current, in theory, could be used as the foreign exchange reserve for the world. But they (foreign countries + USA) will NEVER allow something like that to happen. That would mean that all of the currencies pretty much just gave up in the fight against bitcoin and they accepted it with open arms.

So yes, in theory, it COULD be used. But that would never happen, countries would die over their control over currencies and they power that they have. So yeah, not happening ever.
