IP is a necessary evil, without it there will be little new research and development if everyone can freely steal your research and ideas. A lot of development costs a lot of money.
I do however believe it is in need of reform, particularly in certain fields where it does the opposite of fostering development it restricts it. For example patents that are held for the sole reason of preventing development or companies that buy patents simply to sue others for using something similar.
I agree with this also! I have first hand experience of this but on a very small scale. about 10 years ago I came up with a little photography tool after creation and testing I discovered someone else had patented something similar, not the same but had factored in all manners of similar items which rendered my creation redundant while this patent existed. It was just a patent that was never brought to production but hampered the development of my idea. So in the big business world I can see how this could be a major source of frustration. However I do agree with the concept of IP but as has been mentioned it needs updating.

Perhaps we will see some positive light in France regarding Bitcoin at the very least it looks like a positive sign. What happens in legislation though will reveal if that is really a good or bad thing although that was taken a while back and it presumes that Macron remembers every event he attended and photos he has posed for.
Bitcoin has never shown any negative sign in any country in the world, it is perfectly fine. It's not recognized yet, but it's being recognized. I believe France will be the next country to accept bitcoin as a legitimate currency, and if that happens, I think the value of bitcoin will rise even higher. Australia is going to be next country to adopt Bitcoin and in general Crypto Currencies. See my thread here > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1911873.0In an effort to attract more Digital Currency businesses they are treating digital currencies like cash in relation to sales tax. Hopefully this will highlight the crypto world even more and maybe France will follow next?

I just read this article this morning on. https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-to-become-just-like-money-in-australia-july-1. “From 1 July 2017, purchases of digital currency will no longer be subject to the GST, allowing digital currencies to be treated just like money for GST purposes. Currently, consumers who use digital currencies can effectively bear GST twice: once on the purchase of the digital currency and once again on its use in exchange for other goods and services subject to the GST.” This is really positive news a a big step forward. Following on from japans good news story are we seeing a snowball effect?

You may have to "invest" in some marketing to boost awareness or consider a signature campaign or bounty campaign by users here and elsewhere to draw attention to the fact that you have a cool project. anyway I'll be following the thread

Today many people rely on bitcoin, in the sense that they are now focusing on the world of cryptocurrency, leaving their jobs
Is there something like this, is there any special tips because i want to focus but not yet dare?
I think there is a tons of online earner who depends only in crypto currency at the moment. But there are others who just do it in their free time to earn some extra cash. Yup this is me, a part time earner. Im lucky i have a full time job. But i try to generate extra funds with alternative coins to build my bitcoin. There are definitely people out there making a living off bitcoin, just trading and gambling. I do not have any day job and I am totally depending on crypto currencies and other online earnings for my living and I am also very happy because I am giving my whole day to my online job and I am earning a good income which is enough for my living and I do not need any day job. This is excellent! its clear that you know what you are doing if you are able to make a living from crypto currencies. are you trading and/or gambling? personally I wouldnt be interested in gambling eventhough a lot of people would call trading gambling also.

Dark Gravity Wave will fix an issue that has been affecting the Belacoin blockchain where blocks won't be found for an extended period of time.
The Problem: Occasionally, there will be extended periods of time where no block is found on the Belacoin Blockchain. What are the consequences of this? Transactions are not processed until a block is found. Your coins are 100% safe, but it can be frustrating to have to wait a long time to receive your coins. Why does this happen? There are mining pools out there that search for the most profitable coin to mine and switch to it for as long as it is the #1 most profitable coin. A lot of the time, that coin is Belacoin. When these mining pools switch to Belacoin, the current difficulty regulator (Kimoto Gravity Well) spikes the difficulty to keep the 2 minute block times consistent. Then, the mining pools drop off because Belacoin is no longer the most profitable coin to mine, but the difficulty remains very high. Now, it can take several hours for the next block to be found. Once the next block is found, the difficulty readjusts back to normal and everything continues smoothly again.
The Solution: Dark Gravity Wave Mining Difficulty Regulator Why is is a solution? Dark Gravity Wave (DGW) was created to solve this very problem. It takes more of a moving average so the difficulty does not spike so hard when a new mining pool hops on. It's more dynamic and flexible than Kimoto Gravity Well and will help reduce those long periods of time where no block is found.
Yes I knew it was a mining related thing which in turn affects payments and transfers for users. You description clears up my query, thanks again! Also I wasnt aware that Belacoin was [one of] the most profitible coins to mine, thats interesting ....

I suppose we can only speculate as to what this means. I like some of the posts thus far. He may have been funded by the maker of the storage, he may be a bitcoiner and he may just have been an investor in that business. He is though very much pro EU and as has been mentioned above which could also have other interesting consequences if he is a Bitcoiner. As the second largest economy in the EU and a country with a lot of infleuence along with Germany, He may have plans to do something similar to what Japan has recently done by recognising Bitcoin as a legitamate mode of payment. Japans stance has not gone unnoticed by the rest of the world, lets see

Again, thanks for the updates.
The thread seems to have been focused lately on belacam and its easy to forget or overlook the other tasks pertaining Belacoin itself.
I like the sound of this "Dark Gravity Wave difficulty regulator" this is a mining tool from the Dash technology. What benefits will it have for Belacoin?

You people centralize trading on a single exchange and then you cry. Pethetic.
How do you know this? Maybe a lot of us dont have Ripple on poloniex at all, maybe we do along with some on Bittrex, Kraken also . . . but i personally am intrigued by the sharp rise followed by the exchange shutting down temporarily and then switched back on to find that the value of said currency had fallen through the floor, I love a good conspiracy theory

ive moved to Bittrex.
Second that. I'm done with polo. They'll Gox soon. Why would they do that? There has to be massive funds generated on that exchange for that exchange from all the transactions from all the currencies. Because why not? This happened for the 3rd time, first it was with LTC when started to sky rocket, then with XRP, and now with STR. I meant why would they "Gox" as in call a halt to withdrawals stop uses from withdrawing funds like what Mt.Gox did back in 213/2014. I know they can do what they like. hey, we are dealing with decentralised and unregulated exchanges. Look at their currency value listings they are generally higher than any other exchange.

Did a few tests as requested.
Login was easy, no fuss but I didnt as yet get a confirmation/activation e-mail.
I created a job but I could only choose from pre-defined skills which I find very annoying, I know its only a test but its like Behance, what if I have a skill you have not though of?
I cannot select the length of time I want the job offer to run for
I bid on an existing job without any issues.
I cannot update my job listing because the BTC address is invalid [which is good!!]

Excellent thanks for posting the changes here and I think they are going to be very beneficial. I love these: 3) User Profile -Each profile will show lifetime money earned -Cover Photo -See users' followers and who the user is following Is there plans also to include information or a link to the profile of those who like my images? I think I posted something of this on the slack channel

Yes I have thought of this and have printed out all locations, passwords and phrases of my currencies and told my Daughter where it is, she will be able to work it out i'm sure should I pass away unexpectedly.
It would be a shame for all my research, work and effort go to waste, someone should get the benefit of that work etc.

I take it these will be both Ladies and Gents watches?

Are the coinbase rumours true?? And why did golem stop growing with the release happening soon?
It doubled in value in only 4 days! A lot happened the last days and many investors are looking for other pumps to sail. Bitcoin had a couple of ath's. Litecoin had some crazy days, ethereum is still strong without dropping and today ripple went crazy. Golem is not in the spotlights every day. Thereby nobody knows when Brass will drop and how well it works, I'm sure golem will go strong when brass is released. It will release this may. It is officialy announced on twitter. I hope brass golem wil beo the mighty machine they promised. Lets wait and see The patience is the key of success. Do not sell this coin at the present and you never get a big profit. This is a good chance to buy more coins and hold it for a while if you want to be a rich person later. If history has taught us anything, it's that bag-holding, 90% of the time, does not make you a rich person later. Most companies fail, or are replaced, as time goes by... That said, this could be one of the lucky times. : ) Take profits where you can. Yes take your profits when you can and be sure of them but not all tokens/coins/currencies have to be traded at once

Hmmm, Why has it been abandoned by the developers? I dont have any dogecoin and dont really know too much about it.
There seems to be a bit of a trading revival on Poloniex since March though?

There is a finite number of XRP, no more can be created. Because there is no mining, XRP are distributed over time (sold). They are working on Locking up Ripple's XRP with Crypto Conditions to provide market predictability.
Then this is a good signal then. By releasing 333 million on the market, means that they cannot control it it. It will be community driven crypto currency which is beneficial to owners. But surely releasing this coin disrupts the coin value. Well it seems to be on a little wave for itself, again that 333,000,000 has not stopped the current price rise on poloniex We are looking at $0.10+ for a while now.

This is a good idea, well done for implementing so far.
I have experience in designing websites on Wordpress and while I wouldnt be too technicall with coding etc. I would be strong on the visual aspects.
The first thing that hit me after landing on the page is that there is no "front page" a visitor goes straight into the business page
there needs to be some sort of welcome page.
