20% fiat 50% bitcoin 20% eth 10% altcoins

BTC DOGE XMR LTC ETH and many other tokens.

Yes always focus on the positive. Hopefully, we as a human race fix things before they get that bad. We might not, we may destroy this planet and be forced to live elsewhere.


How can you say bitcoin is for short term storing? The currency will evolve. I have held my crypto for years.

I didn't actually think of that. Yes you right you can only have a few numbers of tries. I think that when computers reach a point they can crack a private key that we will simple use the method you juts discussed.
You can have a certain amount of attempts to get the private key right or you get locked out a certain amount of time. Satoshi is clever and has thought of all this though.

Lol not even the death star can brute force privatekeys

Bitcoin is not in idealogy? What are you talking about? It is useable and applicable right now.


Bitcoin doesn't need to dominate the market in order to be applicable. It already is. It has proven itself again and again. It is just in development and like everything it will be updated in time.

Why do you want to regulate something decetralized?


I am pretty sure all countries at least have somewhere you can spend bitcoins at. Even thrid world countries are adopting it and it can be used for certain things. This is the power of bitcoin, anyone from anywhere can utilize the power of the blockchain even if they live in the middle of nowhere. (so long as they have internet)

1. True, they do hate to lose power, don't they?
2. This is bs and just an excuse just like the stupid drug laws they use to imprison people.
3. Hmmmm.... not so sure about that, they might fear it too much but a government issues crypto may be one solution to paying tax.
4. Same as 2, yes another lame ass excuse to push laws on people. Criminals don't just move money around as currency they move cars,boats, drugs boats and cars full of drugs, counterfeit items hell anything they can invest in and lie to the government about. Fake companies that do not exist and things like that. It would be a bit more difficult to launder money or make fake companies if every transaction is recorded, eventually, the criminal will make a mistake. So they whole "crypto is good for criminals is bs" crypto is good for everyone this obvious includes bad people too. Bad people alwayas take advantage of new technology.

To that I want to add some governments piss away tax money and that is theft. You work your arse off to pay tax to the government and then the road outside your house has holes in it?? Utter bs.

Living life is a gamble within itself. Not sure what you trying to prove or say.

Also risking your life and reputation is maybe the way some want to live. It is a rush. People chase rushes. Hell I chase rushes. The feeling you get when you moments away from deat hare ixxilirating.
Just like with crypto, the risk factor attracts me. Risk it all or risk nothing. Go all in. Or like master Yoda says. "Do or do not. no try"

All you need to do is look at what happened to Germany during WW2 and what happened to zimbabwe a few years ago. Maybe at first, it seems like a good idea until hyper inflation and then you trading a wheelbarrow full of money for some milk and bread.

I read the article and didn't see anyone compare this to cocaine or cannabis. Comparing printing money as being addictive as cocaine is ridiculous. Why listen to some fool who compares cannabis to cocaine in the first place.

I think it will make bitcoin even more popular. Like when you tell a child not to touch something they almost bound to touch it. In fact, if you ask a child not to touch something consider it broken. Making things illegal has never slowed down its supply but it sure has increased its value since there is a risk factor involved. Even if they make mining illegal, you will still find illegal mining operations and currencies. You may even see a rise to Indian and Chinese made currencies to stand in resistance. 

Yes. They take their time when things don't work for you but as soon as you owe then they on it like flies to shit. The banks use such horrible tactics. Tempting people to use credit cards and take out credit to get into nice debt to pay back to them at 21% whilst their prime rate is 11% they only offer like 5-6% annual and you can knock off 1% depending on how much total funds you have since they love to charge for everything.
When bank debt orders bounce the charge $7 a pop. (Ok I am not really against that since if you owe someone money you must pay) but I am pretty sure they like when it bounces, since they profit and it just adds up for the next month. Or as you say they simply block your account and that is where I have a problem. Your funds could be frozen at any time for any reason. I really dislike being in that position.

I don't even use a banking credit card only debt. I don't even want to entertain the risk of temptation to spend what I do not have. Unless it's bitcoins 

I think you right and bitcoin was designed as an alternative to using government issues funds so that is outside their control and in the peoples. Bitcoin is not trying to convert people, rather people arrive at their own accord. There a few too many that think of bitcoin as stocks rather than currency though. These are unbelievers and really have no place in the world of crypto

The OP is not comparing. The OP is using USD as an example for their idea. They are rather comparing the volume with the % of the currency owned. Not the volume of fiat to the volume of crypto.
It is a fair idea the OP has. They are talking about the currencies divisibility.

Oh gosh....   

Criminals can't even brute force or crack a 3 or 4 digit code to open the door to peoples houses so how on earth will they do what you say? People still use passwords to unlock their door or main gate. If brute forcing was so easy then surely criminals could create some sort of device to crack a 4 digit number? Yet they have not. SO if they can't do that and we do not have to be paranoid about people gaining access to our property then why should we be paranoid of something that is 25 characters long or 12 secret words?

You should be more paranoid that there is a bomb under your car each day before you go to work. Also like others have said if they could do this then banks would be in serious trouble.

This really talks to me. Damn. I got teary reading this. My best part is this "I say if you do not become a millionaire in the next 10 years, then it’s your own fault." It is so so so true.
You want to make it in life? You gotta push hard. Take control!!. Be a monster and release the beast!! So many times we blame a million other things when we are the ones in charge of what happens and no one else.

I was very upset because I had enough money to buy 10 bitcoins a long time ago with money my gran gave me. I had nothing to do with it and wanted to invest it in bitcoin. I was spoken out of it but I shouldn't have listened. Later on I did need the money but I wish I just bought bitcoin and forgot about it. The quote a repeated above makes me feel like I still have a second chance and that I shouldn't give up.
I missed a life-changing event. Should I give up? Never!! Life changing events happen all around us. This makes me want to try even harder and this time get it right, learn from my mistakes and forgive myself.
I won't let it happen again. Yet I still feel the sting, I wouldn't need to work right now if I had just followed through my plan.

You never know the future though so maybe I am much too hard on myself

You cannot regulate something that has been made decentralized. "we can police our own" this is a much better idea. I don't want the law anywhere near crypto. We can take care of this ourselves.
People know the risks of getting into crypto. It is very risky business not for the faint-hearted. If you don't like it you don't have to take part. Stop blaming the criminals only. Do you think criminals would exist if noone fed them? As long as idiots are willing to give over their heard earned crypto to scammers nothing will change. (I am excluding advanced scams since anyone can fall for these though only like 1% of scams are advanced)
When people still fall for cloud mining scams because of their own greed its their fault and if they keep doing that scammers will keep coming.

People must arm themselves with education instead of relying on "regulations" or the "law"
If you cannot protect yourself without the need for the law you are either a fool or a coward.
You don't go into the minefield of the crypto universe without being armed. It's just asking for it. Like most things education is key.

It is very simple. You either educate yourself or do not. The latter is more likely to cause financial loss and people should be doing everything they can to protect their assets/currency/valuables/stocks or whatever it is.

Can one of you please explain so that I and other can see it, what in the hell is a stable coin? How does it remain "stable"? I have heard of usd tether and stuff but how does the price remain the same?
I am not sure I want a stable coin though. I think I prefer it being volatile like a rollercoaster ride. Maybe stable coins that give interest per year like 10%-20% then that would be a nice stable investment (probably) so that might be a good idea.

Not right now no. But.... it already is a global currency with no ties to any one country and thus can be accepted anywhere. This has never been done. Currency value has always depended on the culture of the country and how they deal with their economy. Bitcoin is much broader so it makes sense it is volatile right now. Just give it some time we need new adopters and I am sure the halving will make an impact too.

Oh sorry, I guess I should have been more specific. I meant a server computer under your own control. Such as someplace in your home tucked away. Even better would be raspberry pi.
It uses very little energy compared to a pc and is much cheaper. You could even run a full blockchain instead of just a pruned one.

I agree with you about using third-party servers. Definitely don't wnt to do that.

I don't see the point of this. You could just buy a 24/7 server pc and never have to worry about the internet connection being on or not and you can run a full node with constant power and you will know it will not lose power. You can just control it through an app on the phone. Using the phone as a server is stupid. Use the phone as a control point so everything is central. I really don't see this happening.
It's ridiculous. This might only work well in very isolated areas that desperately need MN.

It is nothing but FUD to muddy the waters. Crypto is fairly new to the government still. They are unsure about how it will work. It is not like there is that many using crypto. There are so few
people using crypto for it to be a threat to them yet but I guess they want to prepare.
