"digitized assets that could be exchanged in a peer-to-peer fashion" If they create such assets,services like PayPal,Paxum and Skrill will become obsolete,which might be good for all of us.Anyway,I really doubt that any central bank is able to create and develop it`s own blockchain. Most likely they will copy the btc blockchain.

Do you think the global cryptocurrency market is just like one giant worldwide online casino? I have that feeling,when I trade on some crypto exchange platform.It`s like you are just "betting" on altcoin,token or BTC and hopping for the price to skyrocket.There`s no real investing involved,your money won`t create new jobs and lower the unemployment rate.The money goes from one trader to another.It`s a zero sum game.This is not a "win-win" situation.The sad thing is that Wall Street is the same type of "casino". This makes the think that cryptocurrencies won`t change the world. Nothing can change the "casino capitalism".

This thread belongs to the Service announcements or Project development forum boards. I wasn`t aware that sports betting is illegal in the USA.What about fantasy sports betting?I think that sites like Fan Duel and Draft Kings are in the shaddy gambling sector.Will they be recognised as gambling platforms? I dream about a platform similar to Fan Duel,but with crypto payments accepted and based on the blockchain technology.

How do you dictate whether an ICO is a scam or not? Do you provide market depth research or information, or is this purely based on feedback left by others? What actions or features do you have in place to help eliminate spam attacks by fudders who create bot accounts on your site? While this is a great idea, in theory, you have to be cautious about offering any form of "financial advice", especially when dictating what you believe to be a scam coin or not.
Additionally, this post belongs in Service Announcements, not in Project Development.
Good luck
No,it`s not a great idea,because everybody can create a Facebook group or a Reddit subreddit for free around that niche.Having a forum requires paying for hosting and advertising.Identifying ICO scams can help a lot,but we have to make the difference between real ICO exit scams and failed ICOs that didn`t manage to complete their project due to lack of funds or other issues. Good luck with the idea,OP.

"Transferable value" looks like a pretty good term to explain cryptocurrencies. There`s nothing new in such reports,just the good old "crypto is shady" type of propaganda. The good thing is that the Dutch govenment has a more balanced and fair approach towards cryptocurrencies.

I think bitcoin and other altcoin prices should be going up by now. but it doesn't happen.
Look at the market rise now bitcoin from $7,100 --> $7,500 so I guess it's happening. And you shouldn't be disappointed if the rise isn't happening so quick. I guess Rothschilds are on it. Bankers, and, Wall Street, they're all on it. I feel like we're being forced to stop and wait for them to get on and take control of the next leg of the journey. Meanwhile, we are still patient.
Can't give names but for sure there's a manipulation behind it. We are riding their boat so if their boat starts to move then we are already good to go and we have to wait for their signal. I price increase with 400 USD is not what I call "growth".The BTC price goes up and down by 500 USD every day.Anyway,first there were Wall Street and now Rohtschilds.I`m waiting for more conspiracy theories about the btc price manipulation,including aliens,the roman catholic church and Vladimir Putin. Can we stop those rumors?

After reading that: Interestingly enough, the creation of the world currency has been mentioned for over 30 years in The Economist, which belongs to the Rothschilds: “THIRTY years from now, Americans, Japanese, Europeans, and people in many other rich countries, and some relatively poor ones will probably be paying for their shopping with the same currency. Prices will be quoted not in dollars, yen or D-marks but in, let’s say, the phoenix. The phoenix will certainly be more convenient than today’s national currencies, which by then will seem to be a quaint cause of much disruption to economic life in the last twentieth century”. I think that this can really make sense because Rothschilds have a sufficient amount of monetary, political and other resources to make a new world cryptocurrency. What do you think how will this collision between Rothschilds and Buterin develop over time? How will it affect other cryptocurrencies? Should I sell ETH? http://bitcoinist.com/worth-caring-vitalik-buterin-doubts-rothschilds-sway-crypto/No,the Rotchilds don`t have this amount of money,power and resources to make that happen.Most likely they don`t want a global currency.The idea of a global currency replacing all the national currenices is a dream.It will never happen.And no,bitcoin will never become the global currency...

There`s no other version of bitcoin created earlier than bitcoin core.Every loyal BTC supporter knows that. The problem is with the newbies,who might fall into "bitcoin prototype" scams. I`m wondering what will the cryptocurrency market look like,if bitcoin and the blockchain were patented by Satoshi Nakamoto?

I went to buy some items at a company using bitpay (over 1k usd) which I had bought items from in the past, and NO BTC address popped up, instead I get this BIP70 bullshit that doesn't work with my wallet.. Great...
I am still deciding if I want to bother to load a wallet that bitpay's new protocol works with..
I am on the fence as to if I want to buy these items at all, so much hassle. Why can't bitpay just put up a real BTC or BCH address for us to pay with, instead of some proprietary bullshit that only works with a handful of wallets. This isn't what bitcoin is about. Its about creating a simple method to pay, not the cluster fuck that bitpay is creating...
FUCK YOU BITPAY..
Why don't you just contact the seller and tell him about your issues with that payment gateway?Most sellers have their contact info available online(usually an email address) and they will be willing to help.Nobody wants to lose a customer.

When people like George Soros talk about financial crysis,we should expect the opposite.Soros only wants to create and spread panic,so he could capitalise on it.However,don`t be so optimistic about the crypto market in June.There`s no support for a bullish trend,despite the lack of bad news and FUD.

I don`t trust people,who "give away" millions for charity.What kind of charity projects is he supporting? There`s no info about that.Rich people,who make large donations usually do this to avoid taxation,not because they like to help other people.Why is this guy anonymous?Is he hiding from somebody,or from the authorities?

This is also known as cryptojacking.
Cryptojacking is the unauthorized use of someone else’s computer to mine cryptocurrency. Hackers do this by either getting the victim to click on a malicious link in an email that loads crypto mining code on the computer, or by infecting a website or online ad with JavaScript code that auto-executes once loaded in the victim’s browser.
Its a crime and a fraud to your audience. Better to avoid it.
It`s cryptojacking only if the visitor doesn`t know that his computer is infected and mining. It completely legal,if the people know about the browser mining script and they voluntary mine coins. Anyway,browser mining is totally unprofitable and you need to have huge traffic to make any money with this.

"to explain with specific real-world examples"...You can`t compare the US economy with any other economy in the world.USA has an unlimited money printing machine,called the Federal Reseve system. The EU central bank refuses to pump more money into banking laquidity and that`s why the EU might have a lower economic growth,but the US bubble is about to pop, after a few years.

I am quite certain that we are near the bottom of this cycle, from where we will only increase further. The price might slightly dip below $7000 for a brief moment, but that will directly be the last time we have seen $6xxx levels. Every bottom after that will be +$7000.
That being said, I don't expect a crazy market this year. People should lower their expectations significantly in order to prevent disappointment. Bottom development indicates $400-$500 jumps, which I don't believe will change any time soon, so from $7000 to $10,000 means there is plenty of ground to cover, and for that reason we will keep dealing with sub $10,000 levels at least till Q4 of this year. It doesn't mean we won't jump over $10,000 again, but we'll reset back below that.
Trade the market or just chillax and do something else with your time.
You might not expect a crazy market,but it will happen for sure.The price will crash badly during the summer.It might go under 5K USD, or even under 4500 USD.There`s no reason for panic,it`s just the right time to HODL and buy more.The big crypto whales are waiting for the winter.Then,the BTC skyrocket bomb will explode.

How can that company asquire a trademark for the name "bitcoin"?They didn`t create that name. Is this company owned by Satoshi Nakamoto?Can they prove that the name "bitcoin" is created by them? Well,that Etsy seller will have to move on and abandon all his bitcoin related designs.It`s pointless to sue those idiots.

BTC They are heavily centralized, working with big banks and money transfer companies like Moneygram and Western Union. What do you think? That`s why I hate ripple.This altcoin is a "slave" to the fiat money system,it`s not a real alternative to the banks or Western Union.Maybe that`s why the banks will pump the ripple price and try to destroy the real cryptocurrenices.The ripple devs just wanna make some money,they don`t want to change the financial system.I completely understand them,but we all want something more.

There has to be some kind of a worldwide cryptocurrency organisation,which approves or denies new altcoins. All the crypto trading platforms will have to abide by the rules of this organisation and clear the crypto marketplace from the shitty pump&dump coins. There`s nothing wrong with having a tough competition,a competitive market is a must and only the strongest and most trustworthy coins will survive.

This is what we get,when the name "Bitcoin" is not patent protected as a trademark. By the way,the BCH users should use the name "bitcoin cash",not bitcoin on social media accounts and reddit.This is their name and they have to stick with it.Using only bitcoin as the BCH name is misleading.

The market is down,becasue everybody is: 1.HODLing. 2.Waiting for the prices to decrease even more,so we could buy cheaper coins. This reduces the overall market demand for all coins,not only for BTC. The question is,when the prices will stop falling? I`m not trading any altcoins,I`m only holding my btc and waiting.

I thought that the country with the biggest gold reserve in the world is USA. Favorising gold transactions over US dollar transactions won`t hit the US economy nore the value of US dollar.All the gold supporting countries want to avoid the future inflation, caused by the federal reserve money printing machine.That`s why they want to stop using USD for major transactions.
