In my country this plant is highly prohibited but according to research the weed plant contains synthetic substances that may help treat a range of sickness and side effects, numerous individuals contend that it ought to be lawful for medical purposes. Indeed, a developing number of states have legalized weed for therapeutic use.
What's your take on Marijuana?
Accept or Fuck?
No, in my opinion. Not advisable for those who live in sin... I was specifically told this. Marijuana overdose is dangerous for sinners. "They" most likely are aware of this. "They" hope you get overdose. Evil spirits will likely influence the smokers in their filth and overdose. If you think it is truely medicinal then take in moderation. Don't smoke it. Nothing CREATED by GOD is really bad if taken in righteousness and faith. |

I wholeheartedly agree that the world may not be ready for a cryptocurrency as a store of value. Cash is way easier to handle for the common Joe's of society. The only way that I can see people running to cryptocurrency is for a major institution to introduce it to the public. I Don't like the fact that Libra is centralized but it may be the only hope for the entire world to be educated about crypto. I've always wonder how would I explain the concept of Block-chain and Bitcoin to my grandparents or the younger generation without putting them to sleep.
Many people won't touch cryptocurrency period unless it has an institutional stamp of approval on it. The people that I do see adopting are the impoverished who have nothing to lose and tech enthusiasts. Libra could be that answer that get peoples feet in the water. Whether they decide to take the plunge is up to them, but at least their feet will be wet.
You really underestimating what can be achieved with Blockchain/Cryptocurrency. it's very possible to bring millions of people to cryptocurrency in a short time. I believe some know this can be easily done but have some pity for governments. Any great developer who does not care could easily attract millions of people in a short time without breaking the law. |

I can't seem to find the answer to this question either on bitcointalk or elsewhere on the internet.
When Eth goes proof of stake, is there already in existence a designated wallet from which holders can stake it? At the moment I'm holding my Eth in a hardware wallet but I'm sure I wouldn't be able to stake it from there. Does anyone know about this and perhaps have a link, or is this something that is so far unknown?
I also can't find an answer to when the pos change is supposed to be made. I saw a thread about this earlier but there was no link and my searches turn up old articles. Thanks.
Excerpt from: https://ethstaking.io/what-is-ethereum-staking/ (link already posted by someone on this thread) Risk Aversion: Ethmining rewards can be stored in cold offline wallets. Ethstaking deposits and ethminting rewards, on the other hand, must be allowed to mature in an open wallet. With the potential for draconian penalties and the prospect of prolonged ether-at-risk exposure, many average or risk-averse ETH holders may stay away from participating as a validator. Also, those with more to gain by “gaming the system” are more strongly incentivized to join as a validator during the early part of the Casper rollout. The risk aversion problem is expected to be mitigated over time as more and more potential ethstakers see the success of the proof-of-stake security and observe how Ethereum staking works. You probably should Google to see if such staking wallets/"open wallets" already exist. I would have Googled it myself but I don't want to share scam wallet or stuff that may end up as scam |

This sounds interesting: Activate incognito mode for any blockchain
Incognito is a privacy sidechain, that can be attached to any blockchain to conduct confidential asset transfer.
The Incognito sidechain runs parallel to main blockchains, allowing for secure two-way transfers of crypto assets whenever privacy is needed. The names "private DEX" sounds alittle weird though. Sounds as if you are referring to typical "private Blockchain". Why is called private DEX by the way? It's because of the incognito/privacy features? Is available on mobile phones? Would be nice if it's. Where exactly do I review the DEX? Or is it not available yet? |

You sure coinmarketcap people don't do thorough research on this things? I'd be surprised if they don't.
Well, this is a major problem with both crypto/non-crypto businesses or ad companies that accept ads on their sites. Many hardly do thorough research on the things they promote.
It's a widespread problem. I guess it's difficult for them to determine what is scam or not. Or thorough research is probably expensive?

Who wouldn't want to invest in Bitcoin, especially long-term? It's a deflationary currency and have a solid technology behind it.
You can by some things with bitcoin, as far as I know.There are probably more you can do with it. Hopefully, more things can be bought and sold in the future. I guess Op did not understand Bitcoin well enough before joining this bitcointalk.

I came up with an article across the web, explaining Ethereum's staking requirements in the future which is going to be a minimum of 32 ETH. Multiplying this with current prices, I get an average of $5,780 (USD) (at $180 per coin). This doesn't seem cost-effective for the average person, as it's somewhat expensive to start earning rewards from the ETH blockchain. If ETH devs leave that requirement for staking upon the launch of Ethereum 2.0, I'm afraid that the blockchain will be less secure than what it is right now (as less people will be able to keep the network strong). The best solution would be to lower the minimum ETH required for staking in order to encourage the average person to support the blockchain as much as possible. With lower costs, nearly anyone will be able to join the ETH blockchain, making it much more resilient against third-party attacks. What do you think about this?  I totally agree. The minimum requirement is strange considering that Ethereum developers want true decentralization. I guess it will be cheaper to sart a mining business on Proof of Work Blockchains than on Ethereum proof of stake. $5,780 minimum requirement is too high. Not like I care about PoS though. Pow is better so far |

What are tokens used for? — they're some sort of values for applications built ontop of Blockchains. You cannot tell someone with great idea not to build stuff on top of Blockchain with a reward system. He/she will probably build a brand new Blockchain if you make building on existing Blockchains impossible.
Can you stop people from creating websites because they create nonsense? Or will you stop them from implementing rewards systems based on mere points they can exchange within their communities?

Binance in their new report indicates that market capitalization is likely to raise to $16 billion, per the reports that the staking of crypto for a particular time period and getting rewards, approximately have accounts of $8 billion in the market activity. Ethereum on the verge to make it a double-figure. The report, Binance praises ethereum’s community as “first major study into staking, ” says that it could give a sharp spike in the crypto industry soon. Source: TheCoinRepublicI guess you mean the total staking value(and not market capitalization) in Crypto world will increase to $16billion. $8billion worth of cryptocurrencies are being staked currently. So Ethereum switching to proof of stake will double the amount according to binance. I wonder where the additional $8billion will come from. I think it is possible though, but it's likely a long term thing. |

I cheated my way thru in a job interview, for the role of the content writer of exchange, now my boss asks me to write about blockchain but I know nothing about it. Could you guys just give me a basic rundown of.... *Things?*. Anything and everything you feel would be nice to know here
Here is my one of my favorite explanations of Blockchain and Bitcoin: http://jrruethe.github.io/blog/2015/04/26/bitcoin-analogyIt is in analogy Back then as newbie I was able to understand Blockchain easily with the analogy. I remember reading somewhere that not everyone understands things explained in metaphor. Hope it makes sense to you. |

This is not important to discuss, but it's for general curiosity. I hold over 100 coins and tokens but most of them found in airdrops so they have near zero value. I only have 11 including BTC that I invested and really care about. I don't want to name all of them but as of today, nearly 66% percent (based on BTC price, not fiat) of my portfolio fills with Bitcoin.
Can you share your percentage of BTC holding? Kindly, only count coins that have value.
Mine are mostly Bitcoin and few other Cryptocurrencies. I don't think it is a good idea to share everything in public though. I have few tokens I haven't checked for some months. Back then I collected few interesting ones and hope they increase in value in the future. I am still hopeful. I don't really care how long it takes. What matters to me is to have a good product in the future and developers dedication |

Government has cracked down bitcoin before (such as China and India). Do you think what is the possibilities of government crackdown on bitcoin in the next 10 years?
This is important to me as I am going to leverage heavily in the coming bull market. I may lose all my money if the government crack bitcoin once again.
Thank you a lot!
Depends on what country you reside in and where you will be keeping your bitcoins. If you have your Bitcoin stored offline I wonder how you will lose it. You could still use VPN to access the bitcoins incase your country is blocked by your wallet provider. It's also better you trade on decentralized exchanges if your country plans to ban Bitcoin in the future. |

Borrowing with bitcoin or altcoin is not recommended. because the agreement must be complicated. when the return is in accordance with the price of bitcoin or the value of bitcoin and does not care about the price of any bitcoin. better if you lend or make loans using dollars or currencies that are not volatile like bitcoin. very risky in my opinion
What? Its good if you are planning to hold any of those coins, Did you visit the lending section there were lenders who made profit if they know what they are doing. Lending out coins is a good way to increase your holdings if you dont plan on buying the coin. There is nothing bad in lending your coins to others. This way the practical use of crypto currencies will increase and people will start adopting them for their daily uses. I definitely would not mind giving my cons to someone who is great in day trading and earning a certain amount of percentage from him just by sitting home idle.. Such service probably exist. I have seen many members advertise them here... Whether they are real/safe or not, I don't. In my opinion, don't handover your Bitcoin to strangers just like that. It should be possible to deposit your Bitcoin on a safe platform and still have totally control over it while your paid trader trades on your behalf through a shared interface. |

Is it necessary for a university to be registered from a government to issue a degree/diploma certificate? Or are there any governments who offer free registration of universities online?
I want to open a blockchain university which may offer master and graduation level courses for free
I think you can open online schools without problems. Guess this's under the condition it's free? If you think opening university from government is not necessary why do you need Master and graduation level courses?Do you intend to issue degree or something? I guess you should probably make the whole thing as simple and transparent as possible to avoid letting the governments clash with you in the future. I wonder how you plan to fund this. |

People often tend to say that Bitcoin is a P2P currency based on the trust between two people. However it's obvious that these days scams are on rapid rise while governments are generally not providing any legal security to those who are involved in this. So do you think there can be some central Bitcoin Authority represented by various people who can become jury in such cases of dispute? I think this can also increase adoption as people can trust btc more. Also even countries would feel safer as such an authority can conyrol certain malpractices
No, the problems should never be solved via central authority otherwise abuse will eventually creep in. court-like institution for Bitcoin can be built on decentralized platforms. Qualified people could be chosen randomly from millions of members worldwide to enforce rules without depending on any centralized authority. It's too risky to solve Bitcoin/cryptocurrency problems via central means |

I think people around where I live(especially the business people) are a bit secretive about their Bitcoin/crypto holding. They sometimes will discuss Bitcoin but we don't say anything about our holding.
But I noticed that quite a number of people openly talk about it on social media, local websites and sometimes on local forums. But it's weird how things work on one of the local forums am part of. The owner is quite hostile to cryptocurrencies but accepts crypto ads. I guess he did that because people complained alot about cryptocurrency related issues back then

I hope not. But I wouldn't mind seeing top altcoins moving up according to their improvements, development, usefulness etc.
Better as newbie to invest in top altcoins with potential than unknown projects. Though I believe few unknown/new coins with great use case will eventually rank up too. Those are the ones you should probably be looking for to invest in too.
Know what you are looking for though to avoid investing in scams.

Atomic wallet good. I think there should be more information about the wallet to help potential users understand it better. It's one of the most important exchanges I checked out in the past. It actually impressed me but I don't remember why didnt use it then. I guess it's because I didn't see much on the website to guide me on how to use it and about it most important features.

You made good points.
Number one is a good advice especially for the newbies. They need focus on making little profits until they become experienced enough to try the big profits.
Number three is another good point. Not advisable to trade coins based on advice or recommendations from any kind of trader. You could however follow the advice of traders with good trading records.
Finally, "invest what you can afford to lose"... this's the most important of them all.
