I am sure you can find some threads in this forum discussing the same topic. What I know is that in Japan there are some companies which are using Bitcoin instead of their local currency to pay their people. Unfortunately, there had been no momentum on this supposed trend and so the list may not be growing at all. The idea can really be attractive but it failed to get the interest of many big corporations. When an organization feel that there is no clear incentive actually to be using BTC as salary/wages then they will eventually opt to the traditional way of doing things.

I was one of the victims of HYIP programs way back the time when I was just a neophyte and assumed that HYIPs are real thing. Fortunately, those scams never took all of my money so I was able to make recovery later with the help of cryptocurrency. I am sad just reading your story and thanks for sharing this one...this should be serving as a big warning to new entrants to online investing so they will not easily trust the things they read and never be persuaded by empty promises.

There are programs that overwrite your harddisk with random data, cluster by cluster. I've needed one long ago for Windows, I don't know what you use, but I'm sure a search will help you out. That should be pretty safe. Another idea would be to make on the new laptop completely new wallets for the crypto you've used and transfer your coins to the new wallets. Of course, you'll also need to change the passwords and 2FA for all the accounts if you are this paranoid.  But I think that proper full overwrite should do. Transferring the coins to a new wallet would seem to be the best option if one is really "paranoid" that deleted data can still be recovered using new technologies or tactics. I really understand the concern of OP because as they are saying nobody can really be too careful. Another good option is never to sell the laptop or just keep it which is for sure make things really so safe. |

I don't know why the channel limits its viewers, I got this screen message
"The uploader has not made this video available in your country."
Anyway, any publicity of bitcoin/crypto is good thing especially if the content gives more comprehensible information, knowledge regarding finance and security.
I am from the Philippines and this video is also not available in my country. Maybe the channel owner thinks that my country is not suitable to view his content? Or is it YouTube doing its censorship? At any rate, I am looking forward to explore ideas, tips and opinions that can be affecting the movement of Bitcoin in particular and cryptocurrency in general. |

There would only be 21 million Bitcoin to exist in the network and some of them are still had to be mined. Of course, some of these Bitcoin can be lost already and so the circulating supply can be lower than that fixed figure. Now, what will happen if the demand for Bitcoin can surge (maybe assuming that it is going to be used heavily in international or eCommerce transactions just like USD)? The simple answer is that the price can go skyrocket so that it will just be taking a small fraction of a Bitcoin for us to buy goods and services.

I am sad to her your tragic story. You lost your husband and then you also lost your access to your cryptocurrency. This is illustrating actually that no matter how we humans think of something to be nothing is really perfect. Indeed, the current viral pandemic is making things so bad and is bringing the worst of the people. Today, there are so many simple and rational matters that are turning upside down due to fear of the virus. And maybe we could not blame people for that but can only wish that things may soon return to normal. Again, my sympathy and a big wish that life will be blessing you once again.

As what I expected, Goldman & Sachs will not easily give up their standard notion on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. However, I am sure that deep inside these people they are already feeling the wind of change. For now, they think they can still hold on to their traditional beliefs and convictions but time is coming when they will have no choice but to join the party otherwise miss to made some nice profits dealing with Bitcoin. The fact that they include this big topic means something: there is a very clear demand on their client base.

I dont think that global recession is a good time for new IEO
Yes, that is generally the case. However, an economic recession does not mean that people do not have the money anymore it can also mean that more and more people can be looking for ways to make money and when the pandemic still around they can be doing it online...and certainly new cryptocurrency projects can be highlighted as viable and profitable platform depending on how good it is and the people behind it. |

The many predictions which we were served on what can happened with Bitcoin post-halving are all mostly based on past precedents. However, as of now, we are situated in a different time due to many events that took place maybe affecting the mindset of the people, of the market and the global order. Certainly, we can say that we are in a different era where things, people and organizations are acting and reacting in much different ways away from the predictable patterns.

I would say that this is a valid and major concern but as of now we don't see it happening. The Chinese government can be unpredictable many times and they have the tendency to be secretive so essentially it would be hard to read whatever they are thinking and this can be the big reason why many are concern whether one day Bitcoin can be controlled by the government for their own purposes. We should be vigilant, of course, but not react like it is already the end of the world.

Is bitcoin really viable as a peer-to-peer electronic cash?
Lightening network is definitely a good solution but it needs to be more user friendly before it can become popular. But it is also gaining momentum slowly among the regular crypto users. So it's just a matter of time before it becomes an obvious choice.
I fully agree that LN can be providing the solution to the problem of Bitcoin gaining the upper hand as a prime digital cash which people can use all the time to purchase from high-ticket items down to ordinary products we are using every day...or in a mom-and-pop operated grocery store. This is quite critical for the future of Bitcoin because it being a speculative asset is not quite good enough. Of course, LN is not yet so perfect as it is a work in progress, but we are getting there am sure. |

I have observed recently that the transaction fee for bitcoin transfers has significantly increase, I was wondering if this would help bitcoin to grow further if people are suffering from high fees while miners are doubling their income, is this the result of the halving we have been anticipating?
This is just another common occurrence in the Bitcoin network...whenever there is an uptick in volume of transactions we can expect also an increase in fees...more like the law on supply and demand in action. Fortunately, things will eventually subside and will be normal so that fees can be acceptable again. The recent halving actually means less income for miners as they are getting their money not really on fees. |
