I never thought about that, thanks for creating this thread and raising awareness.

It makes total sense that hackers/scammers would use a simple keyboard download
to record "key strokes"

I dont use a downloaded keyboard but have done in the past.

They and Michael Saylor are very bullish on Bitcoin and will continue
to purchase Bitcoin at any price.

Is another American company that he knows buying bitcoin? I speculate that he might know something and that he might be buying now before the something he knows begins making a move on the market and pumps the price hehehe.

possibly!

Dont forget the "Bitcoin for Corporations" online conference they hosted
He is banking on the interest generated from that.

The general vibe from him is that he will continue buying regardless of price.
He is looking Long term and this year is still the "earky adopters" phase.

Just thought I'd let people know that freebitco.in took wagers on the various Six Nations games for this round that were just held.  (Follow the link in my signature  Grin )

Not sure who else is offering odds other than


(Thanks to @Saint-loup for providing the link to Odds Checker)

Posts two and three have been updated - it's a work in progress.

I posted a list of sites offering odds on the Six Nations on page 1
Just double checking my links below I see that GT Bets are not offering odds on the Six Nations
but they do on other Rugby competitions.

I cannot see any that are offering odds on the Womens World Cup.

Is RL bigger than RU in Australia, I imagine they would have equal following?

What kind of speech you want satoshi to give again, whatever you need to know is on the whitepaper, isn't that the reason why whitepaper exist ( I always wonder why it is called whitepaper though)
Satoshi is resting somewhere far away and don't have the need to address and speak to people about what he created, he had done what needs to be done, your own part is use it wisely and enjoy it.

Sounds like the OP is in a hurry to get to $100k and wants Satoshi to accelerate
that journey.

I agree as do the majority of people here I guess, We dont need to hear what Satoshi
might say about Bitcoin, Satoshi created it and left it to others to carry it forward.
The Satoshi entity will be happy with how far it has grown and is happy to stay silent.

ah you cant blame them for getting into crypto, that is where the future is, they see it
and know they are getting in early while others delay.

They are a business and like all business they exist to make growth and profit and
not get left behind.
4607  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Democrat Senator Warren attacks Bitcoin on: March 03, 2021, 06:33:58 PM
They seem to be too old to understand this new advancing technology.
These older generation, narrow minded politicians with their privilaged positions are

the problem may actually be that they understand bitcoin too well. look at who are these old people who make negative statements about bitcoin. they are all corrupt one way or another or at least have a stake in something else that bitcoin has been threatening. it is because they are scared of bitcoin that they are lashing out these days while seeing the magnificent growth it has.

absolutely BrewMaster! they are scared about their FIAT based investments, there really
is only one show in town and it threatens all others and they bloody well know it.

Do these people really believe they can stop the migration into Bitcoin?
4608  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Democrat Senator Warren attacks Bitcoin on: March 03, 2021, 12:32:42 PM
These older generation, narrow minded politicians with their privilaged positions are
ways going to stick to their outdated views to remain in their positions.

Dont care what she says or that she agrees with yellen.
4609  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lowering the electricity bill by mining cryptocurrency on: March 02, 2021, 07:21:20 PM
This makes total sense to utilise mining's by product - Heat.

Mining inside the arctic circle requires less energy for cooling and the heat
generated can offset the costs of heating other areas of a building.

I think that a lot of data centres favour a temperate climate to the cost
of heating and cooling isnt as great because the climate temperatures dont
swing greatly, adverage 30°C swings from -5° to +25°
Mining I recon would prefer constant cold climates.

Its only a matter of time, it will be this week for sure. A lot of weak hands are looking to get back
in after relinquishing Bitcoin last week and realise yet again Bitcoin isnt going to $10k.

$50k resistance will be broken again

4612  Economy / Speculation / Re: A 70% Drop May Occur after BTC Hitting Around $68,700 on: March 02, 2021, 07:30:21 AM
I would reservedly say anything is possible. Two weeks ago I replied in a post that Bitcoin
wouldnt have any more 20% drops, and here we are just recovering from one. So im no
good at making price predictions.

One one side I wouldnt be dissapointed if it corrected 70%, for me I would try and acquire
as much Bitcoin as possible again at $20,000.

How often do these price analysis predictions come to pass?

Nice to see one of these rarities come up for sale, 10 BTC though, good luck to the OP
if he can make the sale.

I agree with the others hi-res images would have to be supplied but I guess they can
follow and the one above is to generate interest.
4614  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 21 million is it just a pointless number and nothing to do with scarcity? on: March 01, 2021, 09:43:08 PM
....But its a limit.
Consider that supply is deflationary and demand is rising,
Try buying some in the near future and you will know about scarcity.

What can we compare it to?
FIAT = unlimited
GOLD = unknown

4615  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Citibank Article "Bitcoin At the Tipping Point" on: March 01, 2021, 09:36:14 PM
this is an interesting article from one of the biggest banks in the world.
Like it or loathe it, it looks like Bitcoin is going to be overrun with institutional investors
gobbling up big quantities of coins.

Quote
There are a host of risks and obstacles that stand in the way of Bitcoin progress. But weighing these potential hurdles against the opportunities leads to the conclusion that Bitcoin is at a tipping point and we could be at the start of massive transformation of cryptocurrency into the mainstream

on a seperate note these stats are interesting

Quote
According to Visual Capitalist, it took the telephone 50 years to reach 50 million customers, 22 years for television, seven years for the Internet and just 19 days for Pokémon Go.
4616  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2021-02-24 BlockFi Launching its Bitcoin Trust Fund to compete with Grayscale on: March 01, 2021, 07:13:40 PM
Definitely the demand for bitcoin will increase with more investment instruments which are created
to attract people from FIAT and Gold.

It also means that the coins bought will be locked up for the long term and drives the price up making
 it harder for us poor minions to purchase.

Time is quickly running out to buy Bitcoin at an affordable price (assuming we think $50k is affordable)

Pascal Gauzere admits mistakes to referees boss

Not taking anything away from wales but the ref made a few blunders in the match against
England on Saturday. England were favourites to win the match but it shows on occasions
that the ref can change the outcome of a match eventhough England didnt do
themselves any favours towards the end.

4619  Economy / Economics / Re: holding bitcoin from early 2010 till today on: March 01, 2021, 10:13:20 AM
There are definitely people who are hodling Bitcoin since 2010 and there are a few who
still have coins but can not access them.

The people who have vast amounts of coins since 2010 are not going to broadcast that,
If I was one of them I would be keeping a low profile.

Hodlers from 2010 have a life changing amount of wealth.
4620  Economy / Economics / Re: How do you define rich? on: March 01, 2021, 07:40:22 AM
To me being rich is having enough wealth to not have to work a day job for the rest of my life,
to be able to afford top health insurance for myself and my family
to own a foreign property or possibly a number of properties
to be able to pay for unforseen problems with a car or property
to be able to buy whatever I need without having to budget somewhere else
to be able to pay for education and set my children up comfortably in life
and to be able to leave some wealth to my grandkids after a pass away.

Thee isnt a magic number to being rich, we all will want different things in life,
i dont want a yacht, a supercar or live in a mansion.
