Heck no, considering .1 BTC is $50, no.
Because who knows one year later some random co-worker might find your picture and show it to other co-workers, then you're fcked big time.
maybe your hot co-worker might notice it and like what she sees. then you get free BTC and a lay. |

expected banks to fight bitcoins with all power they have.
but they can not win , since there is no single point of failure.
in this case govnments and banks can have diffrent opinoins.
they can win easily by stopping BTC liquidity. that would turn BTC primarily into an underground exchange of assets. |

this issue was the one that officially turned me against obama. i don't know the exact reason for this meeting, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were just a PR stunt.

Apple will accept bitcoin at some time when they relies that they are wrong and its popular. I also thought the blockchain.info app worked on iPodPhones & blockchain.info has there own app for the macbook.
what the what? english must not be your native language, or not mine.. because i did not understand a thing you just wrote. |

Most of the Chinese are getting out of the crypto-currencies because of what has unraveled in the past couple days/weeks. BTC most likely will hit around the $100-200 (maybe $300-400) price point again until there is a new catalyst that brings it back up.
$100-$200? strongly doubt. it will not end up where it started. i think somewhere between $300-$500 is looking likely now. i wonder how pissed the winklevii are. or how pissed the winklevii's investors are. wonder if they've sold yet.
i believe they are still up 50 fold for the price they paid.. can't be too pissed off about that. |

this is a sobering reminder that bitcoin is not all invincible. people were talking about btc hitting 1400 or 2000 by the end of year.. that does not appear so likely.

i think the next few months are critical as well. in november, BTC truly hit the mainstream and set itself on the radar of world governments. the next 2-3 months we'll see what those governments are thinking.

that or they could end up losing a lot of money. it's high risk and high reward.. you forgot to mention the other side of the coin.

if the guy had a link or source, then more people would have been likely to upvote it. otherwise it's probably safe to assume he's just a troll or speculator. |

seems like europe is about to tip over, and some south american countries. i guess the answer depends on the scale of the collapsing economies.
|
|
|
|
|
at the same time, economies in certain countries crash due to hyperinflation? isn't this the likeliest scenario? it would be a + and a - for BTC at the same time, so the question would be .. which has the bigger impact?

bitcoin crash could be a good thing for a few people.

This happens when there's still a piece of shit hanging from your arsehole, and when you wipe, you're just dragging it across your arse without getting rid of it. What you need to do when that happens is grab the shit with the paper, and then you'll be able to wipe normally without using up the whole roll. Great! Now everybody knows how to wipe their ass correctly, thus is turn less toilet paper will be sold worldwide. People will now be laid off and won't be able to afford toilet paper thanks your advice. And, it gets worse! Less trees will be cut down, hence no more climate change, putting more opportunist outta the workplace. I can't imagine what else you have up your sleeve. Probably some water injection device that resembles a toilet to clean one's ass, and you just so happen to be developing such a device currently available via pre-order only. I'll be watching you. ~TMI BTCITW can u post a video for us on how to douche? i've never tried. or do you think sticking a finger up the butthole may be more effective? i would advise against sniffing afterwards though. |

Conbase has ripped me off so many times....I finally closed my account. They have done the same to my friends as well.
They will take your money and hold it for a week and then if BTC goes up, they will cancel your order and refund your money a week later.
They will recharge your bank acct for BTC that you bought months earlier and cause an NSF on your acct. Their are crooks and thieves, end of story.
Stay away from CONbase.
i purchased for the first time about 2 weeks ago and there was no 30 day hold. just 4 business days for the ACH transfer to go through. I have $1,000's of dollars worth of losses from Coinbase, for the very same reason.
I ordered my coins at $1050. By the time I actually got them the price had dropped to $500. While going from $1050 down to $500, all I could do was sit there and watch, because when I tried to sell the coins at the beginning of the drop, I realized they had taken the money out of my bank account, but hadn't actually given me the coins yet. Then when it hit $500 I tried to buy more while the price was low, but they wouldn't let me because my 1st transaction hadn't finished. So not only did they prevent me from selling after the China announcement in order to mitigate my losses, they wouldn't even let me buy more when the price hit it's low. Then, to add insult to injury, they later cancelled my second order for being "high risk", even though my first order was successful, came out of the SAME bank account, and was for FIVE TIMES AS MUCH MONEY.
Coinbase = Conbase. They can take that $25 million and either shove it, or give it back to the people they screwed royally.
the delay doesn't mean they are cheating you. it's not their fault that BTC crashed after you bough the BTC. if you had purchased your BTC from an exchange that paid you instantly, you still would have lost your money. the only problem that i would have is if they'd cancel your order if BTC rose after making your order, but i don't think that's the case (based on user feedback on the forums). They clearly state their limitations and their transfer speeds on their website. Within the first 30 days, it takes 4 business days for purchased Bitcoin to appear in your account-this is no secret. To say they scam people is so funny, and ignorant.... Speaking of ignorant, I've been a fully verified customer on there for 5 months. It's funny how you conveniently assume otherwise..lazy, ignorant thinking. And I wasn't complaining about a delay....go back and read and try to comprehend. They have scammed me and SO many other people on here who post about it all the time..wake up. he didn't quote you, so he wasn't talking to you originally. no need to get belligerent. |

Or so I suspect, at least. We've just seen large investments in US-based bitcoin companies by savvy VC firms. Circle and Coinbase are both saying that they're going to make bitcoin easier for people to acquire and use. I'm sure they'll be successful in that, but they're also probably targeting next-gen uses of the blockchain (see Naval Ravikant, Co-founder/CEO of Angellist's "The Internet of Money": http://startupboy.com/2013/11/07/bitcoin-the-internet-of-money/ ). Seeing some real apps along those lines will drive another wave of excitement, and convince yet another slice of the populace that bitcoin has merit and is here to stay. Along the way, someone is going to solve the money-transmission licensing problem. The reason we don't have any solid US-based exchanges is due to state-by-state MTL requirements, and specifically, the surety-bond coverage requirements for businesses to obtain such licenses. Either Coinbase, Circle, or some new well-funded entity will go through the expensive work of getting the licenses, or start a fund/company that's knowledgeable about bitcoin and willing to underwrite the bond coverage. Solving this problem will lead to much better liquidity in the US, and allow for some of the next-gen services outlined above, as well as advanced trading and hedging. That leads to the beginning of real integration with Wall St. It seems like they're *starting* to shift from completely mocking bitcoin to dipping their toes in the water. They need *much* better liquidity to do anything significant, but unleashing real US exchange platforms will make that possible. Additionally, vehicles like SecondMarket's Bitcoin Investment Trust are already proving popular, and that trend will continue. The potential issue of near/medium term regulatory uncertainty was removed with last month's senate hearings, and further financial integration and products will come as a result, in due time. In any event, these things are all inter-related and tend to snowball. The hard parts of getting the ball rolling and reducing regulatory uncertainty have already happened. China can do what they want; I think it's far more likely that the US ends up housing the most robust and sophisticated bitcoin ecosystem. Once regulations hit, wall street can start adding to their portfolios with little risk of government intervention in addition to what you stated. The problem is how long will this take to mature to that point? Right now there is panic in the streets bc some guy dumped 3k coins... the stock market seems long overdue to pop, as the economy will sooner or later hit a very huge wall. i would guess that bitcoin could possibly reach $100,000/btc by that time.. but the question would be: in an economy with hyperinflation, how much does $100,00 buy you? maybe an xbox one? |

i read it a few days ago that one can live through cancer by eating fruit before meal, or while stomach is empty
please don't tell someone that. this is how steve jobs died. if he had his treatment done when he found out, he would have had a really high chance of surviving. |
