Seems a huge hassle to me, also pretty sure there will be hefty commissions to pay somewhere through that process. To buy with no extra fees and anonymous, use local bitcoins. You can buy with cash in person or just a cash deposit.

This idea actually does have some credence. It builds hype, gets old players back in, free advertising, and excuses to delay heists and DLC. R* are a business i do know so it makes sense

If BitShares X is able to do what it says, will have a system that is more decentralized but with enough trust (knowing who will produce next block) that they can handle MasterCard/Visa volumes and process them incredibly rapidly. But basically it is an absolute shitcoin, more like the - 'could change everything coin' so I guess actually you could call it BUGGED 'shit' coin

What is Alibaba? It is a  PURE Chinese stock, fully controlled by Chinese Government Authority that is also well-known for banning Bitcoin, with unsure rulings any time. So the stock is partially controlled by the government, not fully by the markets, especially Alibaba's backup (Jiang-family江系) is subject to sanction by the current President (Xi DaDa). The conclusion: Do NOT hold this stock for long time.

One thing that turns people of from nxt is distribution. i don't blame them. there are 73 people who holds most of the currency.But calling it an outright scam seems unfair.

It's disappointing to read that what we need to learn in economics is the interaction of finance and economics. I feel like any history professor can give us those answers. We knew those answers 50 years ago when their affects were regulated somehow.Now economics needs to understand the impact of income inequality. That is what makes a financial crisis into a great depression or a great recession.

If you want to sell for the CONVENTIONAL price i.e for the bid price of one's order and a buy order is bigger than the amount you are trying to sell, the transaction will be processed immediately. If you are selling more than the highest bid, the rest of coins will be automatically placed on the ask side.

It seems like the current BCN core dev team are doing very well and don't need much urge, but what are those enigmatic upcoming updates?

most people forget that "fork" doesn't mean "permanently branched away from" - for example, if enough people decide that SolidCoin is better because of the more frequent retargets, that's a change that can be rolled into the official client at some point. Forking the block chain is permanent, forking the project to experiment with new features isn't

Do you keep reminding us about this ludicrous dead horse coin because of much lulZ or you reckon people's continuing support for this clownery? XBC dead for minimum half of a year....

What is possible is that regulators will relax or abandon the AML/KYC requirements -- and thus the ability for Bitcoin to be used anonymously gets sufficient competition from some altcoin secretly created by government, which would be able to compete as being less-expensive to operate as well as being a brand with corporate backing sufficient to cause growth from paid promotion.

Besides the people who don't report an income like eBay sellers or some making a lot of money on odd jobs everyone who pays taxes so far, possibly is afraid of the word called "audit."

Why did you mention CDN? Actually cannabisdarkcoin is not currently a participant of XBridge protocol.

Last year people believed megacoin is one of the strongest contenders for an every day usage currency. Now, trading dead horse like this is just a waste of time.

As savers, investors or speculators, ALL we need to know is shown on http://www.oanda.com/currency/converter/

Select BTC vs. USD or BTC vs. XAU (gold), and you get the chart plots.  If you go to the Historical Rates tab, you can create custom charts.

The point is, "There's money in them there Bitcoin hills!"  In fact, BTC kicked Gold's ass.  Big Time!!!*  Which is why I'm re-balancing my portfolio to start buying BTC (after next Dip).

The smaller their slice of the pie is, the less likely that retailers are going to be interested in accommodating applepay.

They doesn't even hold the majority of the smartphone market, so not "almost everyone" will have the AP functionality. It doesn't seem to be a treat for either cryptocurrency or paypal especially considering paypal has been around for a long time. I, for one, don't care to swap to Apple just to get this feature.

I wonder how weird should a person possibly be to sell bitcoins in bulks below market price, the only reason I can think of for why someone would do this is to avoid taxes, but the discount he's selling for is usually more than the a few percents in taxes you would pay if he just takes them to a place like coinbase.

Hello, anyone here aware, do they notify you by email when the payout is complete or do they just send it to your wallet?

IF he does indeed have pancreatic cancer he should start using Pao Pereira inner bark extract, which contains Flavopereirine, an alkaloid discovered by Dr. Mirko Beljanski. There are many published research papers and patents on this and the efficiency of this product on different cancers, and there are thousands of people with their cancers in remission who will swear by this extract and other Beljanski products. Unfortunately, the treatment is suppressed, as in nobody can claim that these products actually work against cancer.

Does anyone plan to make a BIG announcement, or just gradually build in functionality and acquire users while slowly transitioning from a soft launch to full operations?
