Does anyone ever read the posted links?
This is frightening news. The government is not going to allow new accounts to open until banking auditors go into the exchanges and identify every btc owner for the purpose of stealing their money. The depositors will either be accused of money laundering and all of their funds will be stolen by the government or they will have the shit taxed out of them and the government will steal a quarter of their funds.
This is exactly the kind of government intrusion Bitcoin was supposed to stop. How can any of you consider this good news? Wouldn’t it be great if world governments all stormed every bitcoin exchange at once and stole your coins? If you’re going to be fucked with, tracked and taxed why don’t you just use fiat?

When is everyone going to realize cointelegraph is the worst crypto news service in existence. Forbes and Bloomberg stories are usually negative but I’d still rather read them than coincrappygraph. It’s like they go out of their way to pick the most unrealistic negative stories about Bitcoin they can find. It’s seems like Roger Ver and Mike Hearn got together and started a bitcoin media outlet.

So, you lying mother fuckers want everyone to believe you would return more than a million dollars to its rightful owner?
Most of you are here to collect a few pennies a day from signature campaigns. I have so much money that signature campaigns are not worth it to me and still I would never return a million dollars if someone sent it to me.

That’s very sad. Many Vietnamese lost money. This will cheer you up. I was in Vietnam in 1970 and it’s highly likely that I shot at and missed or successfully killed your father or grandfather. If that didn’t happen, it’s possible that I’m your father.

Stop reading cointelegraph. You can get more accurate bitcoin news from marvel comics.

Mike Hearn was always a self important douche nozzle that supported shit like blacklisting. I hope he dies in a fire. This is really old news by the way.

Check out Blythe Masters and Tiffany Hayden.
Just saying that in particular, Hayden is pretty strong in her ripple knowledge and is really active on Twitter. She is obviously an XRP holder and can appear shill-ish at times but she really knows her stuff.
Masters was a former Wall Street big shot who is running an Etherium based blockchain project if memory serves. It’s based out of Brooklyn.
No, he said women in bitcoin. I’ve met both of them and those two are both men. |

I think if bitcoin rose quite steadily and slowly people wouldn't look at the best cryptocurrency with an "evil eye". Going forward, do you think a slow steady rise, rather than a speedy erratic rise is good for bitcoin to get "accepted" all over the world? The sudden rise seems to scare people and governments.
It’s already too late. Bitcoin will always scare retailers now. It’s volatility will always be a problem for retailers and a bigger problem for companies like BitPay. |

That’s a “make me a hero” prediction. If it happens he’s the big hero. If it doesn’t happen no one will remember he said it. If they do remember he can just say it might take a little longer do to bla bla bla.

There’s lots of women sitting at computers using bitcoin right now. Here’s one:   |

Yes, it should hit a trillion any day now considering it’s going down in price. Everyone knows price has nothing to do with market cap. ROTFLMAO

This is really great news! Maybe now we can get black people to use bitcoin instead of the current group of whiner lilly white nerds and assorted asians using it now.

You mean cointelegraph printed an article with fraudulent information in it!!! They are such a reputable publication I find that hard to believe. ROFLMAO |

For now bitcoin is so expensive because bitcoin is so in demand and many people uses it and investing in it that's why the price of bitcoin always increases and it will continue to rise and be super expensive.
It’s not “in demand” anymore than shares of stock are in demand. It’s being played by traders which are using it to turn a quick profit. |

Quinlan Associates, huh. They lost any semblance of credibility in my eyes for at least two items. The first, dark market use. They have to be seriously outdated in their research data if they still believe dark market provides any significant use for Bitcoin. It was already displaced by Ethereum all the way back in 2016, and after last year's enforcement stings on the top dogs, it's extremely difficult to see how Bitcoin can still play a role beyond the tiniest ones there.
Second point that grinds my gears isn't really a point, just their choice of phrase: "Critical bloodbath"
Can't believe you actually have to pay to see their exact methods for coming to their conclusion. Makes me want to enter the consultancy business.
Oh yeah bro, you do want to be a consultant. It’s estimated that globally all major consulting firms combined, like Deloitte, make somewhere near $200 billion dollars a year, they don’t produce a product and are wrong half the time. They generally have no better outcome than guesswork can produce. |

If it is money and sent the wrong account, there is a rule that the bank cannot withdraw the money, and the wrongdoer cannot sue the recipient.
Nope. In almost all cases the person who receives the money mistakenly and spends it is prosecuted for knowingly spending money that isn't theirs. Of course with crypto this may not apply but it certainly does with banks. That’s right, banks come with fraud protection that returns your money to you and in the U.S. $250,000 of FDIC insurance should the bank fail. You can’t even lose money when the bank goes out of business. When you make an overseas wire transfer it’s fully insured. Cryptocurrency has no protections. If an exchange closes in the middle of the night, you lose. If you send your coin into the either, you lose. If you get hacked, you lose. If you send coin to an online business for a purchase and they don’t send your product but still keep your btc, you lose. With fiat banking the criminal/scammer/conman lives in fear and his victims are protected. With btc the user lives in fear and the criminal/scammer/conman is fully protected. |
