the launching of ATM is another way to foster the massive adoption of the bitcoin in various part of the world. that people walk into ATM gallery and make good withdrawal via the ATM machine is a step ahead of other methods of propagating massive adoption of the blockchain technology.

apart from the young man who said his girlfriend threw away his hard drive containing about seven thousand five hundred encrypted bitcoin there has not been anyone i know of in the world or the media space i know that has complained of missing bitcoin in any part of the world. so i will say the total bitcoin in circulation is actually the current total minus the missing 7500 that is missing.

irrespective of the profession or skill or carrier or job or occupation or talent, it is all about payment and that is a business transaction and the best i know about business transactions is that payment is always involved and it has to be made through a medium as long as it has value. cryptocurrencies have value and it can be accepted by anyone who knows what it is and what values it has.

transaction fees are the compensation for competitive computation of complex mathematical problems initiated via the transaction within the blockchain network and in this case the bitcoin  option. it gets really interesting and makes the transactions get processed and brings in many miners to cover for the numerous transactions that gets initiated on a daily basis.

the progress of the blockchain technology knows no bounds as people all over the world are moving towards the new technology by virtue of sensitisation coming in from meetups and seminars and conferences in different locations of the world and startups that have use cases on c=day to day basis. its further enhancing the massive adoption.

yes. it is obvious the SEC will approve the blockchain technology and the bitcoin in particular but it will only take time and perseverance from the big whales in the space. it has been a while since the SEC has its chance to make decisions and i believe that there is a time frame given to SEC to make decisions of approval.

one of the traits of ponzi schemes are that they do not last for long, in most cases they only last for a year or two but in the crypto space we have been rocking and rolling for more than a decade and there is still no sign of anyone complaining about anything or what  has or has not eloped with his or her resources. now that can only be blockchain technology.

we also have wealthy men here in Africa and other parts of the world. the fact is that the blockchain technology has name replaced with alphanumeric strings and therefore keeps people's identities anonymous thereby giving a degree of security to the owners of wallets and not disclosing their network but for exceptions on the EOS blockchain that has human readable names or customised symbols to a particular account owner. we would have noticed that it is much more than just these few mentioned above.

it has never been recorded for bitcoin to have spent so much as this in terms of time it takes or spends in the bearish season. it is the trend for which bitcoin is known for and also does  not mean that it has challenges it can not contain but the decision by the Security and Exchange Commission has a great role to play and also they have limitations as the government has an ultimatum on time taken for the SEC to decide and that is about to exhaust for the SEC

it is already stated in the whitepaper for all to see and be informed of the newest Distributed Ledger Technology in the globe that it created only 21 million bitcoin and can not create or recreate any other apart from that which has already been created by satoshi nakamoto. if anyone decides to believe any fairytales told him/her by another person then its entirely up to the person.

the future of finance is always a thing people do not want to discuss under the topic called "evolving technologies" as it tends to override the already existing financial structure setup by institutionalised agencies and regulated bodies both locally and internationally. but the truth be told today, Cryptocurrency is the future.

the price of bitcoin and all other crypto currency and their project tokens may not have appreciated to the height in which the crypto enthusiasts expect it to get to but then the massive adoption of the technology has known no bounds as people around the globe have now accepted and started incorporating the technology into their own works and professions

investors have little or no role to play in the possession of kyc of participants of a particular initial currency offering or any other project that deems it fit to materialise their vision. The team has loads of regulations watching them and also some stringent rules they have to abide by and so many things behind the investors and participants eyes.

i do not totally agree with that statement as it is not applicable to all and sundry. that you did not get what you expect form a particular transaction can make you say certain things about the fate of a project but does not in any way state the real idea or vision behind the project. i will not agree with bill on this one.

they aren't all trash as most of them become better just as they proposed it will be. it has a greater value when they work in line with their roadmap and get better. they may have challenges along the line as they control just a few of the market resources and that makes them have less control over the pricing of the project tokens or coins

 i never knew that Liqui will shut down, at least not an exchanger as there are loads of money to be made through the exchange fees charged from people and they are willing to pay ofcourse it looks insignificant but put together is a whole lump sum that will go a long way in running an organisation, but then i appreciate their sincerity.

the thoughts that becloud my mind and i want to ask the holders of bitcoin that ever got to know of bitcoin before 2012 is this: it is known that once in a while, a certain technology comes and dominates and creates an atmosphere technologically where other technologies can leverage upon there by making it an avenue for business. how did the holders get to know that blockchain and bitcoin is that technology.

my coins are indeed very safe. loads of factors actually contributed to this confidence in this comment as i have been a victim of a hacked wallet. my wallet was hacked precisely on the 24th of april 2018 and all my tokens moved and when i tried to move out the few units gotten from airdrops, i noticed it was also moved from the destination in which i sent it to. so i devised a means of getting alerts by trust wallet.

i believe every letter that has been said in this as i have started receiving emails from people i am very sure of not having anything to do with, both individuals and corporate bodies relating with me as though they have my details and they come so strong that you will think you have visited and office with such identity. this should be curtailed

it is well said that the prices of crypto currency will increase in the near future and also it does not at any point in time say that the prices will appreciate as soon as possible so i think the predictions are close to reality as the massive adoption of blockchain technology increases and also the SEC hastens on its conclusion on the decision making.
