I doubt it will be that soon, but I have hope that they will accept it eventually. As others have said they may never approve them though. They might just be too scared or even naive of bitcoin, especially due to the bubble earlier this year. I guess only time will tell but we shouldn't pin all our hopes on this decision though it is certainly something to still hope that happens eventually.


I'm not so sure about that. I think it's just whoever is responsible for making the decisions behind the SEC. Public opinion should have little effect on that.

I can't call this game either. Could be zero goals, one, or loads. I reckon it will be low scoring. Maybe 1 nil either way or 1-1. Not going to put any money on it but I'll be watching it. Hope the teams don't cancel each other out though and it ends up being boring.

Bitcoin will likely never shut down banks. People will always need banks. Who's going to give them loans or mortgages? Bitcoin just allows you to be your own bank if you wish and not rely on a third party to look after your money or transfer it for you. Even if crypto becomes dominant people will still have a use for banks and I don't think they'll go away completely for a long time yet if ever. I suppose the other option would be things like peer to peer lending and credit unions.

It's not in the hands of government. It's in the hands of the people. If people just started using it instead of fiat it would achieve dominance naturally and maybe people would stop using fiat or use it less and less and then there would be nothing that they could really do about that, unless they try ban it, but under what grounds? They can't ban gift vouchers or people from accepting foreign currency so this would be no different. This could certainly happen in the future, but I see bitcoin working alongside fiat as option rather than taking over completely.

Hardly any dogs kill people, but when they do it's usually the owners fault for not raising them right or purposely making them violent. Besides, we all know cats would kill you if they could. They're just pussies and don't have the strength or skill-set to do so. At least dogs will protect you and not run off like a cat would  .

Well I was wrong about the draws but at least I got the Chelsea score right (kinda cos I said 0-1 as well hehe). Really wasn't expecting so many goals from the other two games though. Look at Watford at the top tied for first place with Liverpool and Chelsea. Really looking forward to the game tomorrow between Man U and Spurs. Can't really call the outcome but hope Spurs win.

Well yes, but it's not just that because America isn't the world and cannabis is becoming more accepted in many other countries too even where it isn't being legalized or regulated. I think it has been demonized for far too long and people don't really believe the fake theories of it being a gateway drug and so on. It's far more safer than other socially acceptable drugs like alcohol and cigarettes so it's about time the stigma went away.


What is the acceptable and proper way to use it exactly?

I literally just got done watching Game Night. By far the funniest film I've seen in while and I'm hard to please these days, especially with comedies. Laughed out loud throughout it. There were some cool shots and cinematography and it had a pretty decent synthy score as well which was done by Cliff Martinez (who did the Drive score). Unusual for a comedy to have such a score but it worked well. Would recommend it if you want a laugh.


I can't see why you wouldn't like it. It's very similar, but as I said I prefer Shawshank as do most others. I need to watch them both again, though.

People still use dogecoin? That was a meme that just went too far.


Interesting the PD have now started paying people to post on their own forum. I remember them being one of the OG signature campaigns here. I'll have to check it out. Seems that a few forums have taken the model this one started in paying users to post in order to gain traffic. I wonder if this will catch on outside of the crypto world?

Well I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you're a little bit biased looking at your name  .

I wouldn't back that personally. Watford vs Crystal Palace and Fulham vs Burnley could both be bore draws with no goals. Might be money in the draw on Newcastle vs Chelsea but I'd still back Chelsea here. Maybe 0-1 or 1-2.

Maybe people have learned to actually use bookmarks? Pointless typing the same thing into google when there are plenty of sites and exchanges you can use for this. There's also apps that can notify you of changes in value which you can even customize yourself. The coinbase app allows this and is quite useful.

Yeah, they're annoying for some reason. I'm a dog person though. I just don't get the appeal of cats. They don't even do anything. Dogs are legit as fuck though:

This isn't about smoking. It's about vaping. Vaping is scientifically proven to cure cancer and get you hot chicks.




But I don't vape. It's why I don't get hot chicks.

Ever heard the phrase 'good news for people who like bad news'? Most mainstream media outlets have some sort of political agenda and that is usually set by whoever owns the big conglomerates behind them, and they are at the will of either their own business interests of those that finance them. It's a whole corrupt system where those who have the money can influence the mainstream, but I'm not sure someone is actively trying to smear bitcoin at this point. They just tend to latch onto the bad news because it's a better story. There's also more bad than good news at the moment so that doesn't help either. Don't forget the media does promote us when bitcoin is rallying and the rally last year was probably mostly pushed by the FOMO of others getting on board after they kept seeing in the media that bitcoin was on the up and up so they're obviously not completely biased. Maybe just ignorant, naive, and skeptical of bitcoin more than anything.

That's your dream place? A place in your own country that you've already been to? Read the first post. This thread is more about places on your bucket list to see before you die than just your favorite place to go:

Quite a few places and too many to mention. I'd love to go to Norway for fjords. A cruise down them during the northern lights would be awesome.



I've always wanted to see an aurora borealis. Hopefully one day I'll get to experience it.

Looks magical:

Aren't most politicians just puppets in bed with corporations and their rich donator buddies? Do you really think George Bush was just sitting in the Oval Office one day and started drawing up plans to invade Iraq and Afghanistan? We all know what they were really for. Those wars were all about money and power, but of course they sell them to the public by that they're going to oust an evil dictator or eradicate the terrorists that hate their country and are willing to attack it because of that. You fight terrorism with more terrorism? Who's ideas was that? Remember, the bigger terrorist is always the one with the bigger weapon.

Well I think the obvious suggestion would be The Green Mile as it's very similar. It was also written and directed by the same director (Frank Darabont/Steven King). Both are great, but I prefer Shawshank.

I just googled for a list of films similar to Shawshank and this came up: https://www.scoopwhoop.com/Movies-You-Need-To-Watch-If-You-Loved-The-Shawshank-Redemption/#.v1x4081l4

Green Mile is number three on there.

But the question is how do you determine what coins are going to be quality or not? There's just no way to tell most of the time and that's why you're likely to lose more money than you make investing in new coins I find. There are plenty of coins I've seen that have just looked like every other shitcoin that fails before it even gets going and is dead on arrival that have gone on to be very successful, even though they haven't really got much behind them and are heavily pre-mined. There are then also the coins that have had potential in my opinion that have just fizzled out or stalled in adoption. If people could tell the difference between them easily we'd all be rich already.
