I mean like, my first question here is going to be where in Asia this is going to be -- as well all know certain countries are more and less friendly when it comes to Bitcoin, China being an example when it comes to being against Bitcoin and for more Bitcoin regulation.
Bitcoin isn't the thundering herd though, if you are to look at Bitcoin it's not the fact that Bitcoin has more people, businesses, organizations, or USERS its the fact that Bitcoin has become more of a traded coin rather then a currency in itself.

Yeah, many have heard of issue like this. And while I haven't heard of this issue in Canada, as I don't live in Canada, that doesn't detract from the point that this is happening all over the US as well. This is the reason that if you're buying BTC with a bank cash transfer, you're advised to NEVER mention BTC as the reason for it -- so they're not able to freeze your account.
This happens, banks are trying to hold onto power. It's usual.

I mean with the implementation of things such as Segwit, we should be seeing this fixed without much of an issue. Though it must be noted by people looking at Bitcoin now that the network can handle things, though it cant handle an ALL OUT ATTACK on it in an attempt to boost up other shitcoins (Bitcoin Cash, Gold, etc)
Bitcoin is fine and it will be fine.

Never, never trust an exchanger with your money.
Never. Ever.
I'd have to agree with this up to a certain extent, as with pratical use of Bitcoin and Bitcoin trading, you're going to have to put some trust in centralized things such as Exchanges as these are the people which are going to be the backbone behind getting in and out of Bitcoin (to fiat) Though back on subject, to get your Bitcoin CASH (not gold) use this link - https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/beginners-guide-claiming-your-bitcoin-cash-and-selling-it/ - I haven't gotten mine and don't plan to. But do note that you're not going to be able to use your exchange wallet, you must have had another. Avoid Bitcoin Gold, that's some BULLSHIT.

I'd say none of the ones posted
The entire idea of single individual with biggest impact is flawed in my point of view
While it is flawed in a sense, there has to be a start of Altcoins and the start of the rise of them -- and these names are key to knowing how Altcoins were able to rise into an industry pumped with BILLIONS upon BILLIONS of dollars where people are making (and LOSING) fortunes. I'd have to include Satoshi in this list, even with him being the creator of Bitcoin he's still someone who created the Bitcoin, which in turn is the only reason that the rest of these coins are even close to here. The rest of the people up here I'm going to have to agree with (maybe not coinhunter though)

Is it even surprising in the least? Once people see the opportunity to make some free money they're without a doubt going to join onto the ability to make more. So now that Bitcoin Cash was able to make some people pretty rich, they're now going to go onto something else to try to BEAT THE DEAD HORSE to try to get some extra coins out of it. This SBTC is a shitcoin, even more of a shitcoin then the 1000th coin on CoinMarketCap. And even more then Bitcoin Gold. Gosh it's not even as relevant as Bitcoin Gold, that's sad. Maybe if people stop getting involved in these shitcoins then finally they'd end? Crazy thought.

Maybe it makes sense specially because you are talking about those fucking chineses, i dont even understand why they all are still trying to pump bitcoin cash, and it is just a shitty coin, maybe it is more profitable for themselves, but that is not fair for all of those who are still holding their bitcoins.
They want to fuck off us, they do not care about anything in here.
But it is just a conspiracy, like the first conspiracy about that "Pastebin" that we saw during the first bch pump from $700 to $2800 in just two days. It was confirmed that it was a fake, pastebin got paid to change the date of that text.
and why would they want to push the price to $1000 again? will they rebuy again? or what are they trying to do? i do not understand why they are so obsessed with bcash.
Well the reason to pump Bitcoin is to get more and more people involved in buying it, because as we know with all things Crypto -- when the price of something increases by a large amount (and especially when it is a relevant coin like Bitcoin ) then more and more people are going to buy and keep it soaring. It's really just free money for the people who owned, and bought a long time ago. My only problem in seeing all of this is how it relates to Bitcoin Cash, as it making a move on the real Bitcoin just because of a price crash makes no sense. The community knows who the real Bitcoin is, and crazily enough, it's Bitcoin.

While I do think there can be some correlation here, I do think this is more of something to try to convince more and more people to hold Bitcoin before a correction comes in. Because if you are to think logically, without any graphs or anything of that nature in mind you'd come to think that this price is astronomically high-- this is something unforeseen.
You can't say this isn't going to come crashing down at some point, the question is when NOT IF.
Also, the difficulty rise comes from the price rise -- as more and more people mine when it's more profitable to mine (as the price is up, it is more profitable to mine) So this isn't helpful in the least.

I think when it comes to the walled internet garden, it depends on the service provider's stakes to allow bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies or not but even it is allowing a single exchange or allow hardware wallet servers then even in that case, the users will be able to use it without any issues. However, it will not be a good idea to block the financial sector websites in my honest opinion. It will massively affect the growth of many industries including cryptocurrencies.
I mean I think it's less of a problem of infighting with Bitcoin, as we're really just chump change when it comes to the amount of money that these financial services (banks and such) move every day. So if they want to, with net neutrality in a state of being lost they'd be able to go in for the kill shot with Bitcoin without much issue at all -- all they need to do is pay the ISP's for actually delivering on this kill. I really don't think this administration is going to go away with this though, I just can't see it happening.

Wouldn't really think that BitFinex is really much of a good exchange, let along a half decent place for charting.
But if you really want some quality charts with some wonderful features, I'd recommend going to TradingView for the real stuff -- if you ignore the BS that's being pushed by some of the other people who are saying X,Y,Z coin(s) will be going up then you should be fine using them.
Probably some others but nothing like TV.

I'd be cautious, even if they don't scam you the providence of their BTC might be dubious.
Why don't they sell on an exchange? Perhaps they acquired their Bitcoins via illegal means. Do you want the blockchain showing you as the new owner of those coins?
Same argument can be given about the FIAT in your pocket... Is it possible that $10 bill was once used in a sting operation to capture a drugdealer? Maybe it's marked? Maybe it has traces of cocaine? https://themerkle.com/what-is-bitcoin-fungibility/I mean but like, this is a bit different. As when you're getting Bitcoins those Bitcoins can be more easily marked and 'tainted' rather then an actual dollar bill can. My view on that is that you don't want to get flagged by people due to the Bitcoins that you have, which you may not know where used for massively fraudulent things. And I know a good bit of people that did this, sell on ebay, and it's a haven for people to buy Bitcoins with stolen credit cards -- it's horrible as you deliver the Bitcoin and then people go ahead and say that you never gave it to them. And everyone on here knows that Paypal and Ebay are satan spawn so they're pretty horrid to try to work with. Look at that, now you lost your Bitcoin to some ebay shmuck. Avoid!

How it can be a different price on cryptocurrency? I thought there is an only exchange with pricing ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Well of course there's going to be different pricing in different countries, though this is only going to be because of the fact that premiums are present in different markets. And while I don't know where OP is getting the data, I do know that this is something that is prevalent across other currencies as well. It really depends on the exchanges that are in your area -- and if they are the ones that are in India they must be raking in the profits right now.

Well without a doubt yes, as if you really do think about it Bitcoin is able to survive and thrive (to an extent) due to the fact that the internet isn't restricted. Who knows what would happen if ISP's would force you to pay to use certain sites, such as Coinbase, Bittrex, etc.
Banks could even pay to stop users from using these sites. Who knows what would happen in the world when the internet isn't really free.
But without a doubt it would affect Bitcoin.

Well, that's the thing, while Bitcoin does create jobs and innovation within Crypto it does then go ahead and steal massive amounts of jobs from companies that rely on the massive infrastructure behind centralized banking. So you're going to be stealing jobs from people that work for banks, work for governments (treasury), and so on and so forth. So the thing here is that government is never going to back Bitcoin, as not only is it going to make them give up some of their power -- it's also going to make some of their voters lose workers which is never something that voters want.
So your idea on this is a bit wrong.

Convert it to Bitcoin, the last thing you want is to be exposed to a ton of shitcoins and Bitcoin forks (such as BCH, or BTG) where you have no clue the fate of the coin. It's not like we can really say much about Bitcoin, but at least we know that it is the REAL bitcoin.
Take your free Bitcoin and run, do as you please with that though. I sold off all of my BCH and plan on selling off any other fork to just convert to BTC and then to USD-- I'd advise doing the same if I were you.

I've used some sites in the past, though I must admit I really didn't like the nature of the coincap site which was pretty much just a waste that I felt like I was given information that wasen't helping me in the least. Is there a site which tracks the tx fee over a period of time? To show increases and decreases which would be vital to showing if the changes in the Bitcoin code (such as segwit) are actually doing something or are just a waste all together?
Would be nice if someone knowledgeable could provide a list of things.

I mean like, we've entered an age where this isn't even a question of if there is one it's a question of when the next one is going to be sadly. Though you must note that all of these are going to be scam coins, with the only intention of making a few people some quick cash while leaving others in then dust to lose out. Take the free BTC by converting it back into btc, don't get involved with trading of this wasteful stuff.

Yeah i think by last week of december there will be a correction, it happened in the past that everytime bitcoin rises there is a correction that will follow that but like what happened before after the correction it will rise back up and will continually be on a rise for months say about 3-4 months then the same thing will happen. So i guess 10k will be reached by february. This is just my take on it.
Well as I've said this during every other pump, I do as well think that there's going to be a correction -- if you are to look at the price of Bitcoin right now you'd see that it going up like a straight line. This is something which we haven't seen before, like EVER. What was the ATH of Bitcoin back around MtGox? A couple thousand? Nothing like 9k, 10k? This is sure to fall at some point. The BILLION dollar question is when, and how much. But I do think there will be one though, there must be one.

I have one bitcoin address where i have over 50 transactions on it. I notice other address have either 1 or 0 transactions on it. I heard the irs is now tracking bitcoin etc.
Don't worry.They can't trace you unless you have revealed that you own that address publicly.It's all a big mess and Irs can't do shit.Even crypto-experts can't trace address like that. So does that mean if i use an address once or twice etc... then there is less tracking? Thus imagine i send btc to an exchange like bittrex. If i use a new btc address to receive btc each time from electrum wallet, is that better? Or it doesn't matter since its the same program?
There you go,using Bittrex can easily help IRS trace your real identity as the exchange has all your details.No matter where do you store your coins,once it goes to your Bittrex account,it's all revealed.Also it's always a good choice to use a new address for every transaction. I always hear people say dont use the same address more than once. But are there really ppl that never do it more than one? Because wouldnt someone have hundreds or even thousands if that is the case? The thing is if i want to do trading on bittrex, it probably would be good idea to send bitcoin from an address on electrum that has 0-1 transactions only? I will be using bittrex and only doing small amounts in the beginning to trade. Would it be better send btc and receive btc from my electrum wallet with an address that is used 0 or 1 time? Because if i use one that has lot of transactions, would they look at my old transactions back then etc?
They wouldn't give a shit.They will just ask Bittrex for your doxx and they'd have it.Are you that concerned ?Stop trading on centralised exchanges. This is full of a bunch of stuff that is just so false it's gross. They can trace you, there are tons of Crypto EXPERTS that are able to find out who you are from your address -- as most likely you're going to be linked to a profile with your addy, which is something that you've used on other sites. It doesn't even matter if you have more then one address, if you're sending money there's just going to be more then one input -- so all of your addresses are now going to be found out as linked. So this doesn't even help much If you're really scared, I'd say go with coin mixing as that's your only way of ensuring that no one is able to track your coins -- though ensure to pick a reputable mixer and use the most security that they allow you too.

Are u agree all of trading site have a tax evry transaction.... If bitcoin with taxes whats the advantage and disadvantage. I think the trading site is affected..
Stocks exchanger have a taxes.. but all of stocks holder didnt complain about this..
when you transact you already paid the transaction fee I think it's the same with taxes, profit transactions are already very much from the provider of trading sites TX fee is for miners, nothing close to what a government would be charging when they're taxing you. Though something like this wouldn't really make sense if you were to think of it, if they're taxing you on your trades thats another fee on top of everything. As you should be paying Capital Gains taxes on the money that you make while trading Crypto. So are you saying that the government levied a tax on all trades (buy/sell) of Crypto or that the site did something like this? Tad bit confused here, but on both sides this would be HORRID to think about happening.
