Bitcoin prices are still interesting to observe. This crypto currency continued to be relied upon and had penetrated US $ 13,700. This is the highest level in the last 17 months. However, at this time bitcoin prices are trading again at around US $ 12,600, down shortly after the Coinbase crypto currency site reportedly crashed.
The value of this digital currency has risen by more than 60% this month, and more than 230% every year to date. Bitcoin euphoria, lower prestige, other digital currencies, such as ethereum, which became the second largest crypto currency after bitcoin. According to Coindesk data, the price of Ethereum only rose 150% so far this year.
The soaring price of bitcoin was also driven by Facebook launching its own crypto currency called Libra. Analysts are optimistic that Libra can help the market to get a better position in the community, as a means of payment and investment.

In 2009, much of the cryptocurrency community was composed of libertarians, cypherpunks, and crypto-anarchists. They tended to be anti-authoritarian and distrustful of existing financial, economic, and political institutions. It's very likely that Satoshi Nakamoto himself had such beliefs.

It's been 10 years since and a lot has changed in the meantime. Now we live in a world where everyone recognizes the word "Bitcoin". In fact, the phrase "buy bitcoin" was one of the most searched terms of 2017.

In light of such developments, do you think this is still the case today? Are we still a group of anti-establishment hacker types like Hal Finney and Nick Szabo who can trace their roots to the original cypherpunk communities of the 80s and 90s? Or has the inclusion of other groups such as social democrats, neoliberals, conservatives, and the alt-right diluted the original intentions behind Bitcoin?

In other words, did we lose our ideology by going mainstream?

The Blockchain invention already has resulted in so many technology trends including hybrid blockchains, ricardian contracts, stable coins, security tokens and so on. What other inventions regarding blockchain do you think we might see in he next couple of years? What other industries could this system improve?

Many says that 2019 is the year of crypto and I'm agree with them. During this year so many countries implemented it into its structure, so many universities started to provide courses with crypto education and so many giants started using it showing how it possible to simplify the work. I think we are facing a new revolution , hope it won't work against us

You would see in common these bots provide "features" but not "strategies", I would rather prefer an ugly looking bot but it focus is on strategies, and the developer himself show his own real experience of playing with his bot (profit/loss) stategies. And each release of new version should be on how effective it is, i.e: version 1.0 lost 1.0BTC in 1 month 24/7 betting, version 2.0 lost 1.0BTC in 2 months, version 3.0 did not lose in 3 months, version 4.0 profit 10% in one month. Once you found this kind of bot, it is the real working one you are looking for.

We, as physically and intellectually healthy individuals, strive and survive to achieve our dreams, establish our roles in the society and fulfill our needs and wants. But in order to do this, we are also required to be financially healthy. The lingering fact is that money is not achievable as a single candy you can buy in the store. Sometimes, people risk their lives and reputation just to get a handful. Bitcoins are not officially a currency that you can just see in a certain country, that are being utilized and used. So, is dealing with bitcoins and other things related to it also puts us in a risky gamble?

NiceHash statement regarding latest allegations
2019-06-11
Ljubljana, June 11, 2019 - In the past few days, the news regarding Matjaz Skorjanc, NiceHash co-founder, has emerged on the web. The main reason is that the US Federal Court in Washington has unsealed an indictment against Matjaz Skorjanc. Although this procedure is not related to NiceHash operations, we want to give an official statement to address this situation and clarify some misinformation.

A US Federal Court in Washington has unsealed an indictment identical to the case from the past (several years ago) for which Matjaz Skorjanc has already served the sentence in full.

The current indictment against Matjaz Skorjanc is not related to NiceHash operations. NiceHash will continue to operate normally and the service is working without any issues.

This seems to be a good move but the problem is that they are solving a problem that does not exist yet. Most part of Bitcoin users never had a deal with LN. It is not even implemented anywhere (considering that we need LN for "offline" payments).
So in this case I guess that no one really cares about the security of their money on the system they don't use.

We knows that the crypto currency investment can give us lot of profits even in short time but this is very new there are lot of invesments like real estate,gold,mutual funds silent partner in businesses and lot more but what you think which has highest ROI in short term other than crypto invesments.

My opinion is that real estate can be that one,since my grandfather used to be like buying and selling the lands and made tons of money in his life time but I didn't do that such kind of traditional invetment.

What happens to the value of bitcoin in an apocalyptic scenario? Eg, if the world starts getting hit with electromagnetic pulses which knock out power, or let's say the report that came out a few days ago is true, that civilization as we know it deteriorates by 2050 due to mass migration from climate change.

Many claim that bitcoin will be worthless and gold, guns, and ammunition will be very valuable. On the other hand it has been claimed that bitcoin requires very little infrastructure and would work much better than other things. If bitcoin is truly a store of value, then it should store value especially in unfavorable circumstances.
