I see this very long thread just got moved from the Bitcoin Discussion forum to the Altcoin Discussion forum. Moving an established thread is very disruptive.
The moderators are really paranoid. This thread discusses how Bitcoin relatives to securities law. The mods have deprived the Bitcoin Discussion readers the information about Bitcoin's legality.
Any way no problem. More motivation.
More likely the reason they moved it is your prominent reference to "Which crypto-tokens" meaning you are discussing various coins, not just Bitcoin specifically. A thread about the legality of Bitcoin specifically would probably stay there, or in the Legal subform. However, there are probably existing threads that cover this, so you might just reply to one of those and reduce duplication.

It is no longer in the title, but it is in the body of their OP. All of the original (now changed) parameters have been removed, along with the original coin name. - Dash has no premine and was fairly and transparently launched - Total coins will be between 14 and 18 million

What type of businesses would you like to see accept Boolberry?
Bars, restaurants, bookstores, newsstands, adult shops etc. Actually most of businesses, if not all, should have option to pay with boolberry. Any business that accepts cash now For that to be possible, for any altcoin, it means that a reliable confirmation of payment is given to the business owner in 5-10 seconds maximum (100% chance that he will get his money). That's one of the main problem for altcoin use in everyday real life shops. Most of the business types from above do not need instantaneous payment confirmation,but you have a good point. Dev team should at least have plans for payment layer stuff that is in workings for the BTC Bars, restaurants, bookstores, newsstands, adult shops, coffee shops, supermarkets, etc... need near instantaneous payment system. When you pay by debit or credit card at such stores, and when the network of bank card reader is slow, it takes sometimes 10-15 seconds for the card reader to display Payment accepted, and when this occurs, you know time is really long for you and the vendor, waiting... Next time it happens, count 10 seconds in your head and you'll see it's a very long time to wait, for you and the seller... Altcoins have to be able to give at least as quick confirmation than credit or debit card reader... 5-10 seconds maximum. Otherwise I can't imagine how people would start using them in everyday life. I would never accept a payment system slower than cards readers, as sometimes they are already too slow themselves. You are absolutely right, something of lightning network type is a must have for crypto Either that, or simple off-chain systems are fine for small amounts, or wallets with a modest degree of centralization (and countersign transactions as double-spend safe) such as greenaddress. If you can keep the bulk of your wealth in a completely private, secure 'be your own bank' form, then what is wrong with something like a prepaid card where you buy a modest amount of credit ahead of time which can be spent instantly? (Agree that lightning network is interesting and useful, and perhaps the future, but not necessarily essential for crypto to be useful.) Greenaddress is actually somewhat like lightning in that your coins can't be stolen, but much simpler. After a locktime expires you can get them back even without the site's permission.

Hey guys, so I think I've asked this once before but still kind of confused on what to do... if I have an old windows that might be a 32-bit computer (still having trouble figuring that out; newb problem, I know) and wanting to run a full node to support the network... would it be beneficial just to wait for the .9 windows release coming up soon? Also, would it be easier to instal Linux to do this stuff? Or, if I do have a 32-bit computer, is it just basically pointless to run these things at all?
I believe it won't work on 32-bit. 0.9 does work on 32 bit (or at least it should). Just for shits and giggles... let's find out if it builds on ARM! It does, and even has some optimized ARM asm code. People run nodes on RPi2 Not stock from git - someone put -maes in the flags without checking CPU arch. Modifying... There is a make target for it. make release-arm7 or make release-arm6

ARM is a different type of CPU than Intel or AMD, often used in low power devices, cell phones, tablets, etc.

Looks like the network is getting pretty healthy. I see a lot more nodes including nodes some new nodes accepting incoming connections. Minergate is still >50% but down considerably from before. Please continue to deploy nodes and spread out the hash rate!

Pushed a fixed AEON miner to GitHub - reconnecting should work now. Also updated the example config.
Thanks Wolf0! Don't forget you still have a bounty coming. Once we get some tests that it does work it can be paid out.

Though it should be obvious that our battle is NOT with each other...but with the conventional finance world at large.
The best chance, by a wide, wide margin, we have against the conventional finance world is to drop the distraction of all these tiny competing coins and rally our efforts behind Bitcoin. You first, ok? I'm very supportive of Bitcoin. I've mined Bitcoin quite a bit over the years, and still hold most of it. I've stated publicly that the bulk of my crypto holdings are in Bitcoin (it was a while ago when I said that, but it hasn't changed). I've done some paid work having to do with crypto and it was 100% Bitcoin. That wasn't even my choice, it's just that outside of this forum, 99% of what goes on in the world (related to crypto) is Bitcoin. I harbor no illusion that any of these alts is going to challenge conventional finance, though they may find niches that Bitcoin may not ever address very well, such as being extremely private. Look, Bitcoin has to grow by 1000x (at a minimum 100x) to challenge conventional finance. Dash has to grow by 300x just to challenge Bitcoin. Monero is even smaller than than. If conventional finance is the target, Bitcoin is the logical vehicle. Do the math.

Give us a break...really...your now claiming we are the ones instigating this and that you are all here trolling because of us...that we are inciting trolls. Good god thats beyond the most ignorant and repugnant thing I've heard yet! What we should be doing is cutting out all this shit...period! Slinging shit back in forth is doing ZERO for crypto adoption. At the very least agree to disagree and move the hell on. No that isn't what he said. He said there is no evidence paid trolls, which is the standard attack used by Dash supporters when people make comments critical of dash. Troll, maybe, that's a matter of opinion to some extent. But paid troll is a matter of fact, and you can't prove it (nor do I believe it to be true). aleix, you identified 22 posts out of 400. What about the other 378? I think you just proved my point.

I would go for Ethereum before Dash.
Well, Ethereum got a nice boost when they got endorsement from Microsoft but its not focussing on all the digital properties of money (transaction speed, transaction privacy, fungibility, decentralised voting and budget) like Dash is doing. Instead it seems to be more of a platform for developers where others can create applications that they can then run on top of it. So i consider Dash and Ethereum two totally different projects and both have space to grow in their own niche. edit : with perhaps Ethereum operating in a much bigger niche than Dash... I agree there is really not a valid comparison there. Dash and Bitcoin are somewhat a valid comparison as both are attempting to be primarily payment systems, not smart contract platforms. They differ somewhat in how they approach things like privacy, fast payments, etc. but the goals are at least similar.

Interesting stuff from the china exchanges. Thanks for the info!

There is smoke, but I'm not sure fire. Those videos appear to be there for promotional purposes but look at the low view counts. They could be mirrored on a Chinese video site though.

Is there a way to top up without going via BTC ?
CNY on BTER OTC for some sort of fiat (or non-BTC crypto) payment EDIT: Poloniex XMR pairs, including vs. USDT. (Thanks macsga, I forgot those.) AltQuick Thanks! I didn't even know that existed nor that they offer Monero. Has anyone used it?

Reminder that the tie breaker rule means that any vote that creates a tie is ignored (until the tie is broken by another vote)

I am not a big Monero supporter but I own some coins. It is very hard to understand why the coin shows such weakness when Bitcoin and most other coins are increasing their values over the last days/weeks
This is simply not true, unless you are measuring value against USD in which case XMR has gained valued as well. Here is the current 30-day price change for alts (ordered by 24-hour volume) on bitcoinwisdom.com. The second from the top is XMR (#1 is LTC). As you can see there are some green but most are red. BTC is up 36% during that time period so anything down less than 27% has retained or gained value vs. USD.
