If MMM really is interested in profits above all else. Then why don't they pick another crytpocurrency?
Some altocoin with lower market cap than bitcoin would be even easier to influence and exploit.
Ideal way to milk people dry would be creating their own altcoin and payment system - like OKCoin.

I am not exactly convinced  that Dash is ponzi, I don't like their masternode structure which will lead to major exploits and sell offs in the future IMO.
I have problem with their shady development, multiple rebranding attempts to to cover major fuckups - like their instamine 'feature'.

Yes, you are talking about Solid X, but it won't be approved by SEC just like Winklevoss COIN ETF before.
SEC said that they are worried about bitcoin's unregulated status and the difficulty of preventing manipulation of price.
These are inherit properties of bitcoin and they won't change - every ETF will have the same problem.

It is not that Bitcoin/cryptocurrency powered gambling is more addicting that 'normal' online casinos.
Using bitcoin as your payment method is only matter of preference and convenience rather than statement of your beliefs.
We all have to agree that standard regulated fiat powered gambling services are simply hard to use.

I would avoid this project like the plague. That website is nothing more than depository of totally fake promises:

- "It is a 100% liquid crypto-coin! A GUARANTEED repurchase of the crypto coins by the company itself" - I heard that bullshit before, PayCoin was the same.
GAW promised that they would keep PayCoin token always above $20 threshold, they failed hard. It is not possible to keep a promise like this.

With bitcoin worth over a thousand dollars there is high chance that the most popular altcoins will follow this trend.
Plus, Bitcoin is having scaling difficulties ATM, that fact might boost price of altcoins temporarily.
Unlike Bitcoin DASH is known for its exceptionally good propaganda about its amazing properties, people might swallow that.

This is general problem with every deflationary cryptocurrency with fixed coin cap.
But following 'the best' logic, it would be the best to never spend coins and instead hoard them forever.
I gambled/spent bitcoin when it was worth $200 - do I regret it or am I bitter about it? Absolutely not.
If price of ETH is high ATM, then just instead of using X amount of ETH to play, use half.

Please show us actual examples of the guides you are talking about. Talking about general concept of 'money earning guide' won't help us.
Some of these of these guides have been written to serve as a bait tool for some scamming HYIP/Ponzi investments rather than genuine helpful tips.
When you see that there is a guide and it works only with service XX and under certain conditions etc. you need to be extremely cautious about it.

Old and no longer relevant news. Chinese exchanges are no longer important topic amidst current scaling problem debate.
We need to end bitcoin scaling war if we ever want to see $2000 per BTC. It's no use to think that people will stop talking about it and move on.

It would be much easier for North Korea to launch their own cryptocurrency or online payment processing service controlled by government than embrace bitcoin.
Secondly, these sanctions are not exactly harming ordinary citizens of North Korea, as they are not using banks to transfer money outside the country.

It's unfortunate but without these centralized exchanges functionality of bitcoin is very limited. 
We can argue that bitcoin can be traded in p2p environment or used directly to purchase goods.
But realistically how big is volume of p2p bitcoin trading compared to centralized exchange volume?
Users vote with their money and so far they choose (or are doomed to use, depend on how you view it) centralized exchanges.

I would like to continue with vDice campaign for another month.

It's unfortunate that rates are lowered and at the same time we see bitcoin price drop, but I'm good with that.

It is not about altcoins at all.

It is all because people are starting to panic because we have unsolved scaling problem and there is possible danger of hostile hard fork by Jihan Wu.
I expect that we will see even lower price soon. Just because of the domino effect caused by fear of uncertainty of current bitcoin situation.

You all are talking about altcoins pump&dump, and while it is the most apparent and easy to notice, it is also foolish to think that Bitcoin is not susceptible to pumps and dumps.
Despite much higher market capitalization there are whales who can single single-handedly crash price of BTC.
You don't want to see pumps and dumps? Then we need higher market capitalization and diversification in coins distribution.

My best investment was probably buying bitcoins when the price was extremely low in January 2015.
At that time we had severe FUD created by idiotic mainstream media. Among others, this article:
"Bitcoin revealed: a Ponzi scheme for redistributing wealth from one libertarian to another" by The Washington Post.

I am amazed by bitcoin's market resilience, not only we didn't have futher price drops - I expected small decline after weekend.
It is nice to see that Bitcoin doesn't need ETF to remain relevant or to succeed, plus after ETF fail we have free media coverage.
We alredy filled the gap so I think that $1300 is within our reach.

Piratebay is the same, you can check who uploaded every torrent and chose only verified files. 
There is also comment section where people post warnings if the file is infected or torrent is fake.
If torrent is uploaded by anonymous/unknown uploader and there is zero comments then use you common sense.
The best idea is to open the file in sandobox environment.

These are exchanges where you can trad vSlice token:

- https://liqui.io/ the hisest volume, probably the best place if you want to trade it
- https://www.livecoin.net/
- https://mercatox.com/

Also what is happening to the price of VSL? I lost like 50% in recent 24 hours.

So their reasoning for instamine is basically this: "Dash is earning its place with no VC funding or ICO"

Translation: According to Dash developers if coin is launching without ICO then some other form of boosting is needed.
Apparently if you want develop honest coins these days you can't do this without some sort shenanigan. Sad.

A couple have been detained in the United Arab Emirates for having sex outside of marriage.

The South African man and his Ukranian fiancee were reportedly arrested after a doctor in Abu Dhabi who treated Ms Nohai for stomach cramps discovered she was pregnant.

Formal charges have not yet been brought because Ms Nohai is apparently undergoing "further tests" to determine how long she has been sexually active.

In the UAE, all sex outside marriage is illegal, although in Dubai, a blind eye is usually turned to unmarried western couples who co-habit.
