This is not a flash news, sorry. India this year has made it's U-turn against crypto. Although they have been debates on their parliament and a hot topic in 2017, everything went awry this year. So we are not surprised at all, it's just sad to, specially to those Indian who have been trading or involving themselves with Bitcoin and making good money out of it. It could face opposition in the parliament, but I think our Indian enthusiast should think ahead if ever this bill will passed, 10 years? I think that is too harsh.

Might not be a good news for crypto enthusiast specially those who invest on privacy coins. But I'm not surprised by the move though, we all know that governments around the world are clamping crypto specially privacy coins. And we all know that those privacy coins can be a hotbed for criminals that's why governments are putting pressure on exchanges on the last couple of months to remove or de-list privacy coins in their platform. I think LBC already did that move last May removing Monero and Japan's FSB is putting a pressure on Japanese exchanges to drop privacy coins as well. So this will be the trend, sad to say.

I don't think that the current price is too high for Bitcoin. It's just trading sideways at the moment, meaning the demand is just so-so but we all know that everything can change and create a new trend (downward/upward). I guess everyone is just waiting for the Bakkt on Sept 26, so we are like in a cat-and-mouse game. No one is moving unless they see something very positive and then the FOMO starts to set in again. People said that Bitcoin is too high when it touches $1000 in 2017, and there will be people calling the price too exorbitant at $10,000 in 2019. I hope you see the pattern here.

This is very interesting:

@ene1980 - as far as the fastest man, Yohan Blake, fellow countryman of Bolt, could be the one to replace him. But I'm not sure if he has the personality to be the face of Olympics next year.

Usually though, gymnastics, track and field and swimming are the all time favorites sports and usually the emerging winners could be the next face of this summer Olympics so let's see.

Right, doing crypto exchanges takes a lot of effort not just for developers but from the people behind. I mean, you don't have any experience, and then hiring someone you really don't know, what are the chances that those people are not going to give you shitty project, besides, they can create a exchanges that has a backdoor? So the best option is to really hire people within your area that you can talk and discuss everything what you wanted. Communication is important, also you need to get someone who can test and see if everything is working fine. You can accomplished it by having people in your side all the time. And don't buy ready made scripts as well, again there is the risk that the code is somewhat messy, hard to configure and has vulnerabilities.

Arbitrage was very profitable in 2017, that is prior to all KYC mandated exchanges and the used of the bot. If I remember correctly, there was a huge discussions about this one as well, people claiming to make huge money. However, as we have seen the market evolved, and the used of bot very important and obvious in the last 2 years, it's very hard if you are an inexperience trader to pull this kind of strategy. Profits are made in seconds and if you just hesitated for a bit, your potential profit could end up with a huge loss. I'm sure that they are still doing it as of today, but for newbies this is not advisable as it takes experience and knowledge just to pull this off.

Yes, he is rank number 1 in this tournament., but as far I can remember this tournament is part of the ATP 250 masters, meaning if Medvedev won, another 250 points for him in the race to reach Federer.

@Indymoney - yes, anything can still happen, we have Rublev and Berrettini plus former champ Kukushkin in the tournament as well.

I'm not an Iranian, but if you are a crypto supporter and your country doesn't support it, the most logical thing to do is move to a crypto friendly countries.

I know this might may not sound right, and very extreme decision on your part. But I guess this is the best thing to do at this point if you wanted to make your live easier specially involving yourself in cryptos. IMHO.

Oh, thanks man. I was looking if Medvedev is going to enter this tournament so I guess we can say that he is chasing Federer before the end of the year.. Yeah, those 2 are going to be his challenger, or least has a change to win this year as they are really playing high level tennis as well.

Most of the top seeds had a bye in the first round. So probably in the next days, we will see who will remain in the bracket and the potential clash of the top seeds.

If you really know how to move and play along in this market, in whatever market situations we are in (bullish/bearish), no doubt that you can still make yourself rich, assuming you have a big capital to spend in the market to begin with. But it seems that people here doesn't have the patience, or no longer interested when the market is in a bearish trend. But remember that this market never rest, so as traders or speculators you should also take advantage of every situation to make a profit, it doesn't matter if it's just a small percentage, it's the total accumulation that counts.

Is anyone still surprised by the statistics?

I mean we all know that trading itself is not for everyone and majority really sucks at doing it. Those newbies who think that they can earn easy money here got burned already. And no matter what bot they going to use, if they don't know how to set everything right, just a matter of months before they realize that it's better to gamble.  . But thanks to them the money keeps flowing, and strong hands are enjoying the game.

Bitcoin Cash has all the means to really put up a challenge to Ripple and Ethereum, don't forget the people behind the project. However, we crypto enthusiast know this that's why the consensus of this community is against Roger Ver. Just like the exchanges they put up, personally I'm not willing to trade on it and to make money, would rather trade on other platforms.

With that said, I don't think that investors will give them a chance to even replace Ethereum as the second top coin. Even if they did, I doubt that it can stay on the top of the foodchain in altcoin market. C'mon, are you guys going to support that shitcoin who claims to be the original Bitcoin?

Probably we can see a boost, but not that bull run that we all have been waiting for. There could be new money coming in the ecosystem, but I don't see that it will be enough. Bakkt made noise last year, unfortunately it took a while before they got the approval, and the hype has died down already. So don't expect a similar scenario like 2017 here, so that you won't get disappointed in the end.

Same here mate, used to read about Martina and heard from my uncles talking about how great she was and eventually follow every news about here.


Correct, Serena is the more accomplished between the two. But when the Williams sisters burst into the tennis scene, both of them did play very good and it was exciting to see them play against each other.

I think St Petersburg Open has started, today so let's see who will win this year.

Btctalk Username: Kemarit
Bitsler name: Kemarit

Rank: Legendary

Partial payment of .05 BTC paid (81f6c226343d9f12b7b1c45dfa94ba6e50cca9192c1fea1f31cb9a0359a0baeb)

Kindly extend the remaining of .015 BTC balance to October 3 and will be paid .017 BTC. Thank you for the understanding.

We will have to see, it's been touted as the catalyst for another bull run this year and push the price to at least $16,000 so let's see how everything will turn out. Maybe institutional money with flow to the ecosystem to push the price. Or it will create another hype and fresh blood are going to pump the market who knows. So it's going to be pretty exciting as others said that this is long overdue and they grow tired of waiting while on the other hand, majority are betting that this will create a boost in the price, whether short or long term.

Haven't try to play this game, but obviously with this kind of news, sometimes you are really frustrated as how people behind the project are really handling this supposedly game. Easy money for hacker here as he found an exploit but I do hope that they can catch this thief. Even though it is EOSPlay, but I'm glad that EOS still looks strong at $4 and was not affected by this bad news. Did the hacker steal the money from fellow gamers though?

Yeah, probably this one maybe the regulatory body was too lax on the implementation and perhaps no enforcement that's why a lot of companies are not fully compliant after a year. And besides, this should be an on-going effort as well, not just to target some date and then after that, no update whatsoever specially in the very evolving world of crypto space. So it's going to be a daunting task here, you comply then something in the future will come up and make amendments on the rule. So this is going to a never ending privacy debate.

CZ already hire BAM Trading Services as a front for his US Binance and as far as I know they are already accepting deposits beginning Sept 11.

@exstasie - yeah, I wonder why they chooses such company we haven't heard before (BAM), So I will assumed that this is just a puppet or dummy company put up for the purpose of partnering with Binance so that they can "legitimate" launch a platform in the US.
