J'ai jamais vu un ICO qui deliverait un contrat entre les 2 parties, j'aimerais bien en lire un pour voir
C'est une bonne video même si finalement il ne parle pas de droits des investisseurs dans une ICO, (je sais pourquoi, il n'y en a pas) il suggere juste un cadre juridique commun à l union europeenne. Faudrait pas non plus penser que les gens pourrait etre protéger au même titre que la garantie de l'Etat sur les comptes bancaire. Même reguler ca ne le sera jamais.

Ensuite, je pense qu'il fait reference surtout aux ICOs lancés par des rélles entreprises qui utilisent cette forme pour lever des fonds. La tendance est plutot à l 'inverse en fait. Les entreprises preferent finalement utiliser les anciennes methodes et commencent à abandonner le modele des ICOs.

Is the IBAN starting with letters other than the country acronym? A possibility is that you were trying to use the IBAN from a banking service (or neobank) that rely on a Banking as a Service platform.

Normally an IBAN number begins with the first 2 letters of the issuing bank's country. But with the arrival of payment accounts/neobanks that use a BaaS, IBANs can also start with other letters, for example neobanks that use Trezoor all have their IBAN starting with TRZ (which doesn't belong to a country). The thing is some systems are not coded to accept these letters.

Again today BTC failed below the $4,000 that's suck 👎
I hope it doesn't last all week, I thought the $4,000 limit shouldn't be crossed again, to show how Bitcoin can resist. What we would need is lot of cash injected on the market, we could see how Bitcoin reacts, it would set the tone for the rest of the year.

If Russia creates its own currency, how does it mean Russia has embraced Bitcoin. If it was really the case the country would have adopted it directly or at least accepted it, through regulations if necessary.
What I know is Russia is far to embrace BTC. Central Bank of Russia Plans on Limiting Cryptocurrency Trading. It's only goal is to  have a crytptocurrency could be useful to carry out “sensitive activity on behalf of the state


That's what I call using BTC truly as a currency, you're lucky I would like to be able to have the same use. Unfortunately I have to convert to fiat sooner or later, or to buy gift cards, or stuff on the web like servers or domain names. At a time I used Purse.io to buy items on Amazon since I'm a regular shopper but I stopped I don't want to end with an item purchased with stolen CC or whatever. And there is not really an alternative to it.

"...Move over, Jamie Dimon, because there’s a new contender for the coveted title of “king bear of the bitcoin-bashing brigade”: technologist Nicholas Weaver..."

"...So what happened when the cryptocurrencies first came out in 2010 and 2011 is most people who looked at it with technical understanding went, “Oh, this is bovine excrement, and walked away.”...

"...Why is bitcoin just bovine excrement? Because while it might use cryptography, it utterly fails as a currency, leaving proponents with “very few non-criminal uses...”

I had a good laugh reading the title of the article.
His main arguments are about bitcoin’s immutability, the difficulty for the average Joe to securely hold your coins, difficulty to spend. I wonder if he really looked at it, isn't BTC enough user-friendly. However there is a point I agree with.

That's true for a lot of merchants, especially the medium and big ones.

I'm not sure the Lightning Network will (drastically or not) increase the price.
People will not bother reading about what LN brings to Bitcoin, they will not understand it and they will not feel concerned, like what happened with SegWit. (I am talking about people who aren't yet a crypto user) Also not everyone will want to use LN, whatever reason they have.

This does not prevent the price from reaching $6,000 as the OP expects and there is a good chance that this will happen, but it will happen without LN. Sure we will surely notice a boost from some days but nothing spectacular to expect.

What about if the Bitcoin's value stays stable (let's say $5,000 with some ups/down of ~$150 which will still be volatile but wouldn't be considered a lot.) Similar to how gold is considered.

So I would think that yes Bitcoin can be an investment, a safe haven like gold is, maybe a reason why people call Bitcoin the digital gold. And it can slo be a payment method, again, like when gold was the only currency.

Fiat currencies are also volatile but that doesn't prevent anyone from using it.

Nah,@OP is looking to know how he can know in advance what will be the fees if he needs to make a transaction from his/her Blockchain. com wallet.
He wants to know what influence the BTC fees and if there is an application that let you know the current fees needed in real time. That's it

@OP
You can use the link posted by @jseverson and @cryptjh but I suppose you wallet provider suggests the fee when you finalize a transaction.

I'm going to wait at least 6 months to find out which foot Bitcoin is dancing on. I will consider all the other movements as just temporary (including the recent small rise). The market is too uncertain at the moment to know which direction it will take. I have also stopped comparing with the old values, which no longer allows us to have a vision for the coming months.

Every situation is possible. If the recent rise contines slowly as it is no doubt  it will create the optimism from people

A global currency can't be based on internet 100%, otherwise it's a currency that will never be mass adopted. Personaly I also don't want to be a 24/7 connected guys to have a payment mean. Without even considering the millions of people who don't have an internet access

It has nothing to do with taxes, fees or similar and you shouldn't care about. You're not living on collected taxes,fees, banks do but that's no more your and our business. If we won't have exchanges taxes, don't worry the governments will surely find a new tax to replace it.

With some social media platforms you can re-register an username that was already used previously. Like some email providers recycle the old email IDs (i.e. outlook). I wouldn' rely on that at 100%.
Not to mention the possibility of having access to the social media account (why not using a re-registered email?...)

Lately a publication of the European Central Bank estimated the BTC transactions related to illegal activity at 4%. And this figure still seems quite close because it is true that the trend is no longer to use Bitcoin for dubious activities, but rather privacy coins. Why the Central Bank of Italy isn't happy, as it says.
Is it happy with how its currency is being used on a larger scale by the Italian mafia that corrupts public markets and companies? Isn't there a bigger effort to be made on this side? Or they're afraid

How are you paying for your daily needs or your bills?. You are surely not paying them with BTC directly. I know there is/are application(s) like Paytomat, offline users pay merchands with BTC and altcoins using the app. That you use such application or use a btc card, you are still using a 3rd party

True that, for the internal pages, I was felling like in Medium.com, comfortable to read articles, but the home page should absolutely be improved, at least to attract readers, otherwise you will have writters but nobody to read their articles, so they won't waste more time to write original articles that don't generate them any income (as small as it is)

That being said, I still like the idea, good luck @prayer0000

Ledger Nano has an application to test the seed recovery phrase

- Plug your Ledger Nano and open Ledger Live.
- Go to the "manager" section in the menu and install the "recovery check" app
- On the device open the recovery check app and select "Start check"
- Enter your recovery phrase
- If it's ok the devide will display a message saying “Recovery phrase matches“

That's all

Certainly the value of Bitcoin has increased a little bit but it should not go back below $4,000. It could at least prove that Bitcoin has the potential to go up and that it's not "dead" after all. It would even be better if he could reach $4,500 at the end of April to show its resistance. Currently it's still a fragile situation.
Better than nothing recently but not so impressive in my opinion.

Roger Ver is more like an entrepreneur who wanted to get involved in Bitcoin. (If I am correct he is also one of the investors behind the Digital Currency Group).Then when he started having differences of opinion, he started screwing up.

When he bought this domain name, it was with the idea of fooling people into thinking that bitcoin cash is the real Bitcoin. When you go to their site they even have video tutorials to explain to newbies, and they really explain to them that Bitcoin cash is the real Bitcoin. I'm also as certain that he's the one behind the @Bitcoin twitter account to apply his questionable methods.

According to posts from some members it seemed to me that Leopay was not a crypto friendly payment account. I wonder if I confused with LeuPay. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1810594.0;all
@Guglevois
While searching, I found this paragraph directly from their site. So I don't think it's a problem, you can still do some tests with not very large amounts, like $10 the first time, etc.

Edit: Notice the quote from Leopay is mentioning Leupay 

"How to earn free bitcoins" is the same as "How to make free money online". So why not searching on the web how to make money and convert your dollars to BTC, or use something that paid straigh BTC.
There are methods that everyone can follow and there are some that may need to bit of knowledge but you can earn frelly on the web. You can make a blog and earn from affiliates commissions, PPC,CPM,CPA. It takes a lof of time but in the long run it will pay out.
Freelancers websites are the place where you can sell your service for some bucks. I know there are people making a decent income monthly using it, Of course you have to be good.

Check out the Beginers and Help section, someone collected a list of methods/websites where people can make some cash during their spare time.

As the article says, nothing has been decided yet, this is just an idea. There is a lot of time between the idea and the launch. And we are not immune to seeing a company coin which will have maybe nothing cryptographic, just a random token. If the company isn't dealing with the existing cryptos (BTC, ETH,etc) and prefer to create its own then there is nothing usefull in term of "adoption".
