generally speaking i think it would be a good idea for world wide regulation,
It would certainly weed out the scam and potentially useless ICO's.
I wonder what information would the regulators require from a potential ICO?
I fear that any regulation that would be put in place would affect us negatively.

Dear everyone,
here is an article by Bitcoin.com with the title "Bitcoin Gold: A Very Unorganized Plan to Hard Fork Bitcoin With Connections to the NO2x Movement":
https://news.bitcoin.com/a-closer-look-at-the-suspicious-activity-involved-with-the-bitcoin-gold-fork/
This is a part of the article open for discussion:
>>There are also many other flaws involved with the project that hopes to hard fork the Bitcoin network in just a few weeks. As we reported earlier, the team does not have a testnet of the network created, so miners can’t test the system. Further, unlike the Bitcoin Cash network, the BTG project still implements the same per-block difficulty adjustment as bitcoin (BTC) in its code, and has no signs of an Emergency Difficulty Adjustment (EDA). Additionally, unlike the website’s claims, there is no replay attack protection added to the protocol, even though the team is adamantly against Segwit2x not adding replay protection. Another disturbing aspect of the BTG project is the implementation of a pre-mine within the code called the “PoW retargeting change for BTG hard fork pre-mine period.”<<
Furthermore, it looks like that BTG is trying to get all the GPU miners, which might switch to BTG, when ETH is switching from a proof of work to proof of stake algorithm. This of course, is a lot of mining power. Does anyone here, who mines ETH, planning to switch? Kind regards, Halcon D. ah there lies a key bit of information, from what you posted it looks like they indeed are trying to hoover up the GPU miners they see a gap in the market so to speak. Interesting thread |

well fork it anyway, so this is a pointless fork?
lets fork the day after also, actually lets have a fork every week for fork sake

ok so we all know how much of an infleuence China was
on Bitcoin and the amount of mining that was happening there.
Going forward how much of an infleuence is it going to be?
will people still be using and trading it?

so much anticipation, the Ethereum replacement/killer coin
debate keeps rumbling along.
any coin has the potential to take over Ethereum's space
and even take over Bitcoin, but it really depends on adoption,
without the support of the users like ourselves a coin will
always fall short. There are a nice selection of coins in that
list all with their own fan base but too much of a spread to
trouble the #2 spot IMO.
I see NEO on the top of the list and has 5 votes I would imagine
if all the supporters from the rest of the list jumped ship into NEO
there might be more of a chance but the market is too diluted.

I wasnt aware that the bitcoin trading volume in europe only
accounted for 3% more than china. But it is good to see that
the regulation here is in place and also that Ethereum seems
to be getting more attention

Nice bet, and it would be nice to collect too!
Im not sure bitcoin will go that high by 2019,
its quite a leap from where we are now.
Bitcoin blockchain being hacked, im not so sure
about that. I read somewhere that in order to hack
It you have to move backwards along the blockchain
while all the time it is moving in the other direction

Well Im certainly not an experienced trader and probably never will be.
I just don't sit on front of the screen all day so I miss most trading opportunities.
I read somewhere that only 10% of traders actually make a profit and only 1%
Of those make a profit regularly.

What if someone creates a better digital currency? Will bitcoin be phased out? And how likely is it for that to happen?
yet another FEAR based thread. There may be coins in existence according to some which already are better than Bitcoin but its about acceptance and adoption and right now the coin with the most acceptance and adoption is BTCno one ca tell what the future holds so dont worry until it happens, IF IT HAPPENS AT ALL |

I truly believe in bitcoins. I believe it is the future of finance and it will forever change how we use money. However, I would say that bitcoins is just a jump off point of sorts and I think governments will just adopt the concepts and frameworks it has laid down. What will happen is that governments will ditch physical paper money and coins and go with cryptocurrency in their own way.
Actually, I also believe on the great potential of bitcoin and I think it will become our world currency. In addition to that, I do believe that bitcoin will be our future money in which you can use it in all kind of transactions even in offline store. I do believe that bitcoin will help me to become rich in the future. I agree with michkima on his points but.I as regard a world currency, maybe but as it is now, running along side a government controlled one. Im a true believer in bitcoin but yes the OP's point about Bitcoin not being used as it was intended is because of the fees |

What theae people asy in public does not mean much,
a lot of them hold bitcoin anyway.
I think it only advertises bitcoin in the long run and
possible helps to introduce more people to bitcoin

real world application is something important for an altcoin
but we dont know how a particular altcoin dev team are
going to market the product and also we dont know what
the interest and useage is going to be.

I'll be holding as well, I am not interested in playing the market
especially with all the panic and FUD. i a also expecting a bit of
a non-event but if the price does fall again I wont worry.

i have recently read the article that there is possibility The J-Coin is intended to function in tandem with the Yen, rather than replacing it so if this is happened the effect maybe for bitcoin itself not for Yen as Japan the current currency and we all know currently Japan is one of the biggest market for bitcoin and if Japan launching J-coin which mean people at there will more likely to use J-coin rather than bitcoin
now this is a very interesting thread topic!!! Im not sure I agree with Nahl above, OK J-Coin may be a blockchain based currency but it will be centralised which will be completely different to Bitcoin. It might introduce more people to Bitcoin though. Here is the real reason behind the move > "The service for the coin would be offered freely but would be a means
of tracking transactions that is far more complex in a cash-based society." |

ICO regulation is good because the ICOs that are just being created for scamming innocent people and maybe,just maybe the scam be avoided from happening in the first place. A lot of ICOs raise a lot of money and if they scam people then a lot of countries will lose potential capital,which most of the countries are afraid to lose.
i agree, that is the plan behind the regulation, to protect potential investors but I'm worried about the amount of regulation and where it stops, will it render a potential ICO as centralised/regulated ? will the regulation require some form of identification for potential investors? will there be some form of taxation or levy's implemented? [ just throwing a few topics for discussion out there ] |

im not even going to open that link because this is just FAKE NEWS actually I came into this thread just to have a look at the comments  |

this happens on all exchanges, from time to time certain wallets need
to be updated and sometimes this corresponds with action relating
to the specific wallet they are running maintenance on.

The screen is small so adding multiple details wouldn't make it any better, It's good as it is but If you could just add a little arrow going UP (green) or going down (red) for showing the changes for the last 24 hours, you could even simply pull that data from CoinMarketCap or CryptoCompare instead of taking them from multiple exchanges and calculating the average yourself.
Nice idea for sure. for extra features as OmegaStarScream mentions maybe show 24hour movements in red or green. Another option would be maybe the percentage rise or fall in a particular colour 7.5%or 82.4% |

They would need to turn off the internet forever, so basicaly impossible now. If they were to crack down on any particular coins new ones would be created within hours. Just like what you saw with silk road only its even easier to create crypto coins. Pandora's box is open nothing can stop the crypto idea.
as above, its is impossible unless the internet is switched off forever, which would also disrupt FIAT banking and communications globally. so thats not going to happen! |

YES!
Marketing is one of the most important tools in business
without it a product or service will remain virtually invisible
to potential customers and investors.
