seems it is much easier to make bold decisions with ethereum...
i am sure ethereum will face difficulty scaling, but would be much easier to change stuff and adapt to demands with ethereum than bitcoin which wasted 2 years of scaling debate..
I am not speaking for ethreum...anyway your point is valid and I will delete that line about ethereum |

The narrative built all these years was that bitcoin is immune to government intervention, to the extent that it will one day overthrow the state.. but ha ha ha all it took was one small civil war between a startup called block stream and a bitcoin early adopter and thats all.... its time for the community to save bitcoin to be on the top ever...  |

This was not the bitcoin i had seen!
What in the world has happened to bitcoin
It is almost one day and the transaction has not been confirmed and as a result i am not able to trade in any exchange..
i have heard that the transaction confirmation time has increased but never expected this worst case.. at this rate everyone will soon abandon bitcoin and this is the reason perhaps bitcoin dominance has come down significantly in the crypto space

This is a sad thing..people are forced to buy bitcoins to pay ransom..while this may create demand in epic proportion perphaps next all time high..certainly this incident brings bad reputation to bitcoin.
i think price will shoot to 10000$ by next week
for those wondering 10000$ is too much.. think about thousands rushing to buy bitcoins to pay the ransom

I have seen this sub in those days, whenever the price of bitcoin rises, some people make very extraordinary speculation that bitcoin is going all the way to 100,000 and 1 million.
But now even when bitcoin is at its all time high , people are making very conservative estimates that is less than 5000$ mostly..
Yup! thats a sign of maturity....

Congratulations cuddaloreappu! I too got bumped up earlier. Feels good to be helpful and rewarded with an extra gold coin  I've learnt a ton in the years that I have stalked the BTCtalk forums, but I'm still a noob with so much to learn in the cryptosphere. Bear you Hero badge with pride, be helpful and soon you'll be among the legendary! that's the spirit...thank you |

Always fancied hero members and legendary ones in this forum ever since 2013, as I came into to this wonderful world of bitcoin when the bear phase began.
what a world filled with con men, libertarians, entrepreneurs , trolls, rich men etc!
waiting for a bull phase for nearly 3 years, and I must say I lost my patience sometimes..
But never lost the spirit to HODL..
just as we witness the Bull phase has begun, I noticed that I have now become a hero member in this forum today..
I just have a very small stash of cryptos, and being a hero member certainly may not mean much to big people here..
But it means a lot to me...
whaaat a ride, bitcoin and life taught me what it takes to be a hero, its patience and endurance
I am a hero now...

People in bitcointalk are becoming very imaginative really and yes it could be true. If you have DAOs already, your option is to buy ETH once the price goes down. How did you know they are in China right now? you stalk them  he moved to china ..i am sure its all over media..i have read many times.. |
|
|
|

I believe that the price rise and the crowd funding ending time of the DAO is more than just a co incidence..
the DAO dumpers have planned to pump up the price and will be dumping the dao..
poor newbies will buy into their plan...First the value of ether will go down then when they accumlate enough bitcoin they will dump and the pump will crash.
guys that vitalik butter is in China right now...He and his team is fooling us all.

bitcoin needs to go mainstream but it cannot go
You can buy pizza,weed,vape,drugs with bitcoins. Isn't it mainstream already ? The corporations and companies are in favor of increasing the block size to handle the increasing number of transactions. The massive consumer adoption and bitcoin moon moment is not going to happen without this change.
Corporate and companies are only trying to centralize bitcoins. Could it be that satoshi had envisioned this crisis long before? or did he design it in such a way that this crisis ensures bitcoin does not go mainstream and bitcoin remains a low player, very much suitable for criminal activities alone?
Don't know where that is coming from .Doesn't make sense.You can buy pizza,weed,vape,drugs with bitcoins. Isn't it mainstream already ? oh common can u do that in Africa and INdia? |

we destroy satoshi coins..
then months later satoshi comes alive and asks where are my coins
what will u do..
it is satoshi wish to use that coin or not to use
if thieves could sell out million of coins so is the same risk with satoshi who if decided to sell those million coins is acting completely within his freedom

Miners are against increasing block size since it affects their profits, they feel shameful to tell this , so they identify themselves as vanguards of bitcoin principles such as decentralization, as it favors large centralized miners. A classic example of how self interest can hamper the very own thing that they are working upon. Developers also join this bandwagon.

Lets just be clear!
its not about women using bitcoin,
but rather worrying about women not being there in the developmental and business space regarding bitcoin...
|
|

I am tired and annoyed of reading articles telling there is no women in bitcoin space..
Why are people writing articles like this?
if women are busy watching tv let them watch..
Are we all feminist?
Those who have what it takes to be involved in bitcoin, do get involved like Blyth masters, and do we complain about that?
are women going to solve the blocksize debate?
are they going to take bitcoin mainstream?
why the hell should we care about women in bitcoin space?

The power they possess over Media , social networks and so many other spheres which can literally make anything mainstream over night.. FORD foundation OPEN society foundation. Open society is by the Billionaire Hedge fund manager George Soros.. just a week ago in India nobody knew about Net neutrality in India, but literally overnight the poured their 196 million stash and now every tom dick harry is discussing about net neutrality, politicians , celebrities and this is mind blowing.. this article gives an insight why they are doing it so http://watchdog.org/187392/ford-foundation/
So the Indian Government has frozen the accounts of Ford Foundation, maybe it does not want India to become Ukraine.. the same thing happened with India against corruption movement before 3 years, literally overnight the movement became mainstream and talk of the nation.. http://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/us-expresses-concern-seeks-clarification-over-india-s-crackdown-on-ford-foundation/article1-1340842.aspxI just wish that these foundation take up bitcoin and help it become mainstream! For that bitcoin somehow has to benefit the top 1%! that is when bitcoin can go to moon. |

Thanks for supporting my work...
I believe bit coin is supposed to be zero trust instrument and that bringing models of centralized trust into it is only ruining its purpose
