I use kraken to trade Bitcoins for some time now and personally, I do trust them. There's really no reason to believe otherwise. Even if kraken stops doing business, it doesn't mean the mtgox case vanishes. Why? The case is still dealt with by Japanese authorities. Kraken is just like a service partner, consultant, whatever.
Actually, I'm glad that there's an established company who takes care of it. They might take their cut, or they do this for marketing reason, I don't know, and I don't care.
For me it just makes the whole process so much easier. It took me 5 minutes to fill out the form. Submit button worked fine for me.
Now, I only need to wait for an email from kraken. Or a bank/bitcoin transaction.
I don't have to check some announcements everyday and be worried about missing some deadline. I also don't need to get in touch with some Japanese authorities or whomever if kraken didn't take care of it. Until then, thanks kraken.

Seriously, if you're not presenting something revolutionary and have some top-notch marketing ideas and a professional team with big names, people will either ignore or fuck with you.

But it's a good way to learn about cryptos for yourself. And who knows, maybe in the process of learning you have some cool new ideas, or decide to improve Bitcoin or other alts. But maybe you also just wasted some time 

Your only problem is that nobody cares.

great video - thanks

it would really help your credibility to post some proof of your claims

why do you expect people to believe any of this?
not saying you're a liar but you are also not the first 'i am/know/met satoshi'

Some coins offer additional features, have different technical specifications, different marketing,etc
Some people make money with creating some scam coin, e.g. they pre-mine coins, create some hype, sell their coins quickly.
Others just enjoy creating their own currency.
There are many reasons to create a new coin - legit and shady motivations.


If you do everything on your own, nothing. There are websites offering the creation of your own coin. I think it's just around 0.1 btc.


If you buy the coins of an almost dead coin and no one cares, no. Some people will just be happy to get finally rid of their trash.
If there are a few people who think "wow, this is the great rebirth of this wonderful shitcoin, I should buy some more", maybe. However, the price might alraedy go up when start buying.
But then, what do you do with the coins of this dead currency?

Your talking doesn't make sense at all. On one hand you believe in Bitcoin, on the other you don't want people to use it and demand the use of fiat for crowd funding.
The reason why Bitcoin is actually used for crowdfunding is because those people think Bitcoin are better, easier, etc than fiat.
Again, Bitcoin exists to use and not collect it.
And having alternatives to Bitcoin shouldn't be any problem for Bitcoin itself anyway. If the world of finance works more or less with hundreds of currencies, why should the crypto world function with several, too?
Regarding cheat. Yes, there is cheat. So what? Be aware, inform yourself, don't fall for it. But you even complain about coins like maidsafe without having the slightest idea what it is. So my guess is that you were too greedy in the past, invested in some truly scam coin, and now you look for someone to blame. 

Congrats, dumbest post for a long time.
First of all, competition is good, boycott is silly, the market decides.
2. the more products/ services (yes, even scam coins are products) you can buy with Bitcoin, the better for the Bitcoin economy. The point of Bitcoin is not collecting but using them. Cryptos are obviously not your thing, because you don't have a clue about economics, so maybe you should focus on collecting old toys or paintings as an investment.
3. before the Bitcoins were dumped by the evil developers, they were bought by the investors. That means if any devaluation happened, than it was devaluation of fiat money but not cryptos.
4. when you talk of scam coins, you could at least have mentioned scam coins (e.g. Paycoin). The ones you talk about offer something different/ additional to Bitcoin. I mean, if you really think MaidSafe is just about a decentralized internet, then it shows that you clearly have no idea.
5. why do I even reply to this...?

Aliens were nowhere mentioned on the website, so I assume it's not legit.

Thanks. Sure, I work as a freelancer, currently marketing for a start-up. In the past, I did mostly internal communication projects within big companies.

Sure, anything is possible. I just think it's so very likely that some character like Ross creates SR. Everything fits: young guy, open-minded to drugs but not too extreme, living in San Francisco, interested in teachings of Austrian school of economics, internet savvy, free and careless spirit.

Further, DPR was anti-government and he created things like the Book Club. The government would neither have these ideas nor like to promote them. This also is a big difference towards Snowden. Snowden is not anti-government. He just doesn't like that an agency is capable of acting without the control of senate,congress,etc.

I've watched many interviews with Snowden and in my opinion he seems pretty focused and analytical. I don't see a creative and hedonistic person but rather someone who acts very rational and organized.
I wouldn't be surprised if he prefers to endure a headache instead of taking an aspirin. Just my impression, though.

I won't bash you and welcome all theories but I think it's stupid...

What Snowden revealed has a much bigger impact. Everyone is affected. His revelations influenced world politics and economics.
Silkroad, even though it made millions, was a small niche in the global drug trade. Only a very small percentage of the population have even heard of it. Even smaller the amount of people who used it.
Honestly, I don't think the NSA cares very much about SR. Maybe only if they want to give a new employee a training project.

Ross is a dreamer who thought he can change the world through his idea of a free market. And make lots of money, have fun. He has this careless and free attitude.
Snowden is a pure idealist. He wants to improve democracy. He is convinced something on a large scale goes terribly wrong. He knew he has to give up his freedom and economic benefits for his believes.

Search for "Gypsy Nirvana PlanetGanja" on Youtube. I think there was a part 1 and 2.
The shouting psychopath is Gypsy Nirvana (currently in jail), his "victim" is allegedly VJ, but I'm not so sure about that.

Satoshi is a group of people. Satoshi's coins are stored in multisign wallets. If one of the group starts talking or by accident revealing his identity, the others will move the coins to new multisign wallets, excluding the 'traitor'. Thus, there's a lot of interest and pressure among the members of Satoshi to remain the anonymity.

my fav is Mariana Hurtado

So far, I only have good experience with you. I just hope you take security serious and won't run away with your customer's coins one day.

What are the fees for

    SOFORT Überweisung (Sofort AG)
    SEPA (European Bank Transfer)
    EPS (Austrian Instant Bank Transfer)
    Skrill OBT (Online Bank Transfer)

and deposit/withdraw of cryptos?

Just joking. Of course, there will be more than 19 or 21 jobs, probably 50+

On the bottom of their job description we can at least find some hints about 21.

 
I knew it will be a scam
