You have to prepare with your lawyer in order to answer this questions. You should ask your lawyer before answering any of these questions. You should also collect as much information you can find about similar cases to your so you can answer better. Wish you good luck !

It is still to early to build a bitcoin credit union. The regulators still struggle to understand what bitcoin is. Let it time until bitcoin gets more popular and relevant in the FinTech sector. Startups will be able to easily open bitcoin businesses in the future.

if in UK bitcoin is already regulated, logic is telling me that you should simply follow the normal rule for any shop that you want to build and that would accept fiat
it shouldn't be much different with bitcoin
I agree, but I think that he will need a license for money exchange. Since he is going to open a shop that buys and sells bitcoin for fiat. and the license will not easily get It depends, if he has enough money he can easily speed up the process to obtain a license. |

We as the bitcoin community should remove the git right of any bitcoin core developers who are on the BlockStream paycheck list. BlockStream is and will be toxic for the bitcoin development as long as they have influence in changing the block size.

I think that once the bitcoin core is forked it should be removed from github. The developers need to make a final change and final version so people can't mess with the bitcoin core and change the path of bitcoin. This way bitcoin will stay more decentralized. Yeah you know what: the raftsmen were very decentralized too - and due to techical evolution they are long gone. Beeing "decentralized" does not mean that you can stop to evolve and to become better over time.... I agree but if people can change the bitcoin core, then its not decentralized anymore. As you said 3 of 5 bitcoin core developers are bought out from a company , and they will do what the company tells them to. They will change the bitcoin core so the company benefits and not the bitcoin community. We should remove any right to change or modify the bitcoin protocol from one or more people. |

I've had a credit card stolen, and while I've cancelled everything with the bank, and looking online I think I cancelled early enough, they've told me some transactions might go through. If they buy bitcoin, is there a way of reporting and catching the bastards? Or are they untraceable?
Well if they manage to buy bitcoin with your CC the first thing they would do is to use a bitcoin mixer and mix the coins so it they won't be traced back. To answer your question : No, bitcoins aren't easy to trace and if a coin mixer is used it would be impossible to trace any bitcoins. |

Then why make threads about it ? We as a bitcoin community should do a public vote and decide if we are going to fork it or not. If we are going to use bitcoin XT or not. This debate is getting pointless and toxic for the bitcoin community.

Another typical Andreas Antonopoulos interviews were he tells us that bitcoin isn't the bitcoin 2009 anymore and that bitcoin can change the global economic market. I would find it interesting if he did a debate with varoufakis about bitcoin.

So If using cryptocurrencies become a crime, will you be a criminal AND use it?Note: Before you reply remember CIA/FBI/NSA/South-park/...  I don't think that cryptocurrencies will become illegal any time soon. There are many businesses who work around cryptocurrencies and this businesses pay taxes, and that is what matters. As long as the government take a piece of the cake it will leave cryptocurrencies alone. |

Hi all,
Yesterday, I wanted to buy some bitcoin through my Dutch ING account. This account is secured with a 2f authentication, login+sms code. The payment to Bitonic (a well known Dutch Bitcoin platform) was blocked by the bank, with a notification that I didn't have the authorisation to make this transactions.
As I was taking a screen shot, the bank called me (!) on a Saturday, asking if I tried to purchase bitcoin. After asking some questions of my own, as I felt somewhat privacy invaded, she claimed that their fraud prevention department had blocked the transaction and wanted confirmation that it was the account holder that tried to make the purchase. She also said this wasn't standard procedure with bitcoin purchases, so it seemed even more 'personal' at that point. At the end, she said the blockage was lifted from my account, so that I could make the transaction.
I've never had a situation like this before, where it seems I am suspect until proven otherwise and frankly, it's quite discomforting to get the feeling of being monitored so closely with everything you do online.
Cheers, Sam.
You should have asked them before proceeding with the transactions. Most banks have their own ToS of bitcoin and virtual currency trading with account holders. Try using a more bitcoin friendly bank or go to the bank and explain personally why you do bitcoin transactions with your bank account, I am sure that the bank will understand and don't block further transaction related with bitcoin . |

Good article, smart contracts using bitcoin technology could be revolutionary in many fields. Smart contracts could build a path to technological innovation.

What do we do about a dev who went bad. Like to fork coins from others, scams us and admits to it. This dev forks his own coins, swaps them and creates a new coin all within months time. Kills the new coin by blaming it on someone else and tells everyone he is done. By the way hes back doing it again.
This dev also will put exploits in the code and still uses timedrift. Other examples available.
Should be a alt-coin foundation that over see's and approves the launching of coins.

Hmmmm it appears your blockchain just jumped like 4000 blocks.... Shocked
I'll let you have your fun, but that is just a warning Wink
(Btw, there's like 5 things you should still change. If you weren't acting like such pricks, I would help you)
You can't really regulate alt coin launches, the bitcoin core is open source so everyone could fork it. The only think that someone could do is to do their own research on the alt coin and invest carefully. After all you are responsible for your investments. |

I was probably a mining pool or an exchange that moved bitcoins. Usually big bitcoin services use multi sig wallets for security. So if you see multi sig wallets moving huge bitcoin amount you can be sure that it is a big company or service. |

In my opinion it would be pointless to open a mining business right now. You will need several million dollars in order to compete with mining pools like bit fury or 21 Inc. I would also suggest you to invest in a mining equipment lab, you will need the most advances miners to be ahead of your competition.

Maybe try contacting them ? This isn't the right forum to ask about slush pool. They have a support team that is 24/7 available.

►The price start from $0.40 But for new purchase everybody have 50% discount, That means, he will pay $0.20 instead of $0.40 for his first purchase
►We manage manualy every thing.
Offer is still Running, Buy One pack only for .2$ in BTC. .2$ is too low and makes people suspicious. You should charge a reasonable amount that will make people actually buy it. |

I think that bitcoin should work and adopt bigger block sizes. Bigger blocks will allow bitcoin to adopt into other FinTechs and allow innovation.
