Have you thought the reason could also be that he used windows to help the adoption? If he used something else, people would say "ahhh again something for geeks" as windows is very user friendly , not like linux command base very techie , he wanted to to be used by every common man.
You maybe have never tried GNU/Linux, because the time when everything was done in a terminal is gone since decades. You can do almost everything with a GUI and now some OS are more "friendly" to use than Windows OS. I can customize a Linux OS you won't really be able to make a difference with Win 7

I find this chart interesting to debunk people who are recently saying the Bitcoin golden age is over... As I said before, the current situation we see these past days is not the first one and maybe not the last one... https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DVnfBQgUMAEYEbo.jpgWhile it can surprising for people who are not used to see this, in the chart we can see this situation happened several times before, (up to 90%). Notice it happened as short as 2-3 days and 1-month max about The definition (for me) of a crash is when then the value lost at least 20%. But a crash doesn't mean the end. Maybe it will take more time to come back to what it was 1 -2 month(s) ago but this is fine to me.

c'est le bazar par ici
Lol, c'est vrai que pour une fois qu'on a un long post, bien détaillé, bien expliqué, sans lien ref et pas copier-collé partout, on peut pas vraiment parler de bazar je voulais parler de la section francaise en général: Par exemple dans la section "débutant" qui est décrit comme "Forum réservés aux personnes néophytes : c'est ici qu'il faut poser vos questions si vous êtes nouveau dans le monde du Bitcoin" On y trouve de tout : de la présentation des membres, à la definition des bountys, en passant par des topics sur les VPN ou less ranks du forum et des topics sur le mining (alors qu'il y a une section pour le mining)...alors bon.... De même avec la section Discussions générales et utilisation du Bitcoin qi est décrit comm "Des questions générales sur le protocole Bitcoin et son fonctionnement ? Des avis à partager sur les wallets et autres softs / services ?" On y trouve des topics sur les airdrops, ripple, ect Encore? Dans la section " Développement et technique" qui est décrit comme "Partager ici vos astuces & outils avec les autres developpeurs." on y trouve des gens qui demandent des astuces pour trouver les campagnes de bounty Je ne vais même pas m'étaler sur la section des altcoins.... on voit les gens qui viennent sur le forum dans l unique but de participer à un maximum de bounty, airdrop et autres, en ayant aucun, mais alors aucun interet pour la cryptomonnaie, la cryptographie ou la blockchain... (a part celui de récolter de l'argent) ca se trouve tu leur demande c'est quoi un block ils ne sauront meme pas repondre je sais à qui je vais envoyé un message encore une fois

They are free to create their own blockchain, some are already starting to add to their system such as Credit Agricole experiencing Ripple solution. Some have a patent running like Chase or JP Morgan; don't remember, with a crypto-based on Ethereum. But they would do it not to lure people because they can't name it Bitcoin or any other name having already be used with an altcoin. They would rather use to save money on costs, operating faster, securely or any other advantages using the cryptography/Blockchain/cryptocurrencies Well if you ask on my government , their answer is no because they forbid bitcoin usage although they still not make any regulation yet. It means that I can still use bitcoin but with my own risk !
Maybe for other country, bitcoin become a new technology that being wanted so it possible to happen in the future !
A government can ban to use Bitcoin it doesn't mean a bank can't create its own blockchain and use it for its customers

I don't see how it can useful to them to lock accounts randomly. Unless a user is abusing their system they don't have any reason. I tried after reading this thread and my account is fine. I advise you to contact them here or on Twitter, it may be a bug or something like this

What about using an exchange like Kraken, Bitstamp, and others? Can't you? What payment method are you looking to use to buy your ETH? Or is the problem about getting giving your personal information to get verified? There is the marketplace here that you can take a look at, it may help you.

It's an interesting tool to use, but not alone. It should be used as additional information collected to take a decision and notice a trend. By the way, can I ask you how are you getting the alerts through your email? Because looking on the website I don't see how to get it (and I am interested in using it)

Not again a topic about Merits ? What the fuck are you complaining about? Merits are the new black. The old boy's club love to parade their big dicks by showering merits on merit topics. Sheeesh, get with the program. I am not going to argue with someone who can't use a decent language, sorry I don't want to go down to the same low level of education as your.

Also, if you are on twitter, post just one tweet (more is welcome) with the article above, using the hashtag #BTrash #Bitcoin etc the gang is quite active there to lie to people

Today is the day Roger Ver was supposed to participate in the Alex Jones show (oh well, the perfect audience to spread your conspiracy theories and lies if you ask me) After waiting patiently, it turned finally to be another lie from him. This guy is out of mind...

I have almost build a structure for you. it's an organized argumentation exercise, usually and ideally, in three parts (an introduction, a development, and a conclusion) Take a pen and a sheet and write down by answering these questions, then read, correct, structure and memorize bingo! you will be considered as THE scholar-researcher scientific on the bitcoin topic in your school. TITLE BITCOIN: Vires in Numeris(White Paper author Aveatrex: PhD in signature campaigns, Speaker, University Lecturer, Innovator, Deputy Editor-in-Chief) - 1) What exactly is Bitcoin
- Paragraph with a simple description of Bitcoin - 2) What is the ideology behind Bitcoin
- Paragraph with arguments to use: privacy, financial freedom, etc - 3)what are the advantages to adopt Bitcoin
- Paragraph introduction with arguments to use: no middleman needed (be your own bank) can't be hacked, can't be printed or rigged * Question: How Bitcoin can help the unbanked - Paragraph with Arguments to use: XX million people are unbanked worldwide, (give data) people get a better privacy, people are not restricted by the traditional banking system (give 1-2 examples) * Question: How Bitcoin can help from small to large companies by reducing costs - Paragraph with Arguments to use: it opens the door to small companies to operate in foreign country (give 1-2 examples) Large companies can save money not negligible with the size of the companies - 4) Are there disadvantages in or using it
- Arguments to use: people are jealous, cybersecurity, scalability, volatility, people joining this forum only to post "great project sir" "bitcoin to the moon soon", because they are paid to post - Paragraph with arguments to use: Considering the pros and cons it can be a revolution in the banking system. bla bla bla Paragraph with your own opinion *use a search engine to get data, use cases, infp, etc

This is too much now. For a few hours it was up and up. And now down down down. I was hoping for the sake of people who have bought in it would be a good price for them to sell and make a profit in a while. But no now down again. What I think is this. People have bought and paid money in. And Then whales have come along and taken the lot. It's wrong.
There are a few things to consider here: 1) The demand from people seeking information about Bitcoin dropped. Keep in mind it doesn' mean Bitcoin is dead, it means the hype about Bitcoin is faded 2) The same situation happened before, and more than 1 time 3) The cryptocurrencies market is not the only market to crash Losses in 24H Dow $300 billion Google $40 billion 500 richest people $114 billio4) The mainstream media and the average Joe who don't understand the news and spread information spun (aka fake news, lies, misinterpretations) intentionally or not...

In Switzerland, there is a government of course, but when they want to introduce a new law, regulation, etc, do you know what they do? A referendum and every citizen is welcome to give their vote on a particular proposal to say yes or no. They have a referendum on almost anything. So a society without a "Power is in the hands of a few" is possible, but if the citizens don't really care then there is not much to do
BTW, I just finished to read the article on futurism.com posted in the OP, it's a very good article to read.
That is called "liquid democracy" and I am a strong supporter. During my short spell into politics (just wanted to make a difference) I was really advocating this system. The only problem is that in our country people are mainly criticizing everything so there is a danger that it would put a break on all progress. But I believe it would change if Government showed some good moves. Also, I don't see any harm in trying if the current system is not showing good results. By the way, a little off-topic, I always admired Switzerland for being neutral and saying "screw you" to all that war-hunger human stupidities. Would you mind sending me a link to the article, I wasn't able to find it? Thanks, I didn't know about a "liquid democracy" I checked it on Wikipedia. I am confused, I am not sure what link article you're asking. I was referring to the link you posted https://futurism.com/sponsored-how-centralization-paralyzing-society/I am not Swiss but I learned about Switzerland's system by watching a documentary about the economy there. I couldn't imagine such system is still possible lol. I was so surprised that I watched the documentary 3 times. The politic and economy is awesome there, it has surely some weakness but every country has some. When it's about foreign affairs policy and international relations the country is very smart. If you notice you never hear about the country involved in shady practices, behaviors, etc... "Mind your business" works very well for this country lol

Because 18% of people are using a credit card to buy bitcoin. (I am referring to credit cards with borrowed money, not debit cards) and this is not negligible. Another thing is the fact it happens suddenly without warning while people were using this method for quite some time now. It's not the countries that are baning but the banks and credits cards. The company Discover also started to block the payments to buy cryptos
