Does anyne else see the contradiction here? As I said elsewhere, it's the users who set the fees.

You lose, they don't? They are already losing and running scared. HODLers hold Bitcoin, and they don't care about drops, they just provide chances to collect more Bitcoin. I don't think it is the Bitcoin whales either, it looks to e as if it is the Deep State  bankers.

Have a great year HODLers, and ignore the neigh (sic) saying day traders.

I hope it drops even more. It means I get more Bitcoin for the names that I sell.

The organisations that will mess up Bitcoin are the globalist manipulators like Apple, Ebay, Amazon, Microsoft, Rothchilds, JP Morgan and their unicorn politicians Merkle, Obama, Theresa May, Tony Blair, the Clintons etc.

Thanks, I need to sort out a more professional site if I'm going to start joining sites like yours. I'll use the brand name with my Baronets.com domain. I've got a lot of supporting sites, but that domain has a trivial holding page at the moment.

With regards to web services - I don't bother listing under that type of category. It tends to be full of hosting, domain name registrars, web designers and SEO "experts". Domain name investing is a completely different world, and it can take years to sell a name for the right price.

I'll try to sort out Baronets over Christmas, and I'll come back to you.

I didn't buy at $19,600

All investments are speculative. For example, I bought some shares at 2pence some years ago, they climbed up to 18 pence fairly quickly, and I maded the mistake of waiting for them to go to 20 pence, as that would have given me enough profit to buy another house. They then took a dive, and I managed to get out at 8 pence. Shortly afterwards the company went into liquidation, and the shares were worth nothing.

You have to watch the timing, and buy for the long term unless you are day trading or speculating.

Do you realise that there is a beginners board. You may get more help by posting there. This board is for sig spammers, so your thread may take a dive fairly quickly.

It's a good job I'm a Gemini, I can understand the concept of using more than one crypto coin. It's pretty obvious that Bitcoin has become a store of wealth, and it will take a lot to shake it off that perch. Thankfully there are other coins around to deal with the minor chores like buying hamburgers.

It sent me an email, but I skip read it and deleted it without registering the thread.
Now that I know it works, I'll probably use this feature in future. Thanks for testing it

I don't see what the problem is. Bitcoin is gold, and Bitcoin Cash is the US dollar - they can both live together in the new economy.

Users set the fees. If you don't want fees to escalate, then don't send transactions with high fees.

I'm in the UK, and I accept Bitcoin in payment for domain names. You don't seem to have a category for that. One major use for Bitcoin is the purchase of virtual assets like domain names.

I'm considering accepting Bitcoin cash and some other cryptos as well as Bitcoin btw.

A bitcoin/dollar price conversion facility is useful, as domain names tend to be quoted in dollars even when Bitcoin is an acceptable method of payment.

He's not much of an entrepreneur then.

Reading between the lines, it seems that all he wanted to do was to make a Euro payment by using his dollars, and that is not the purpose of Bitcoin. The transactin fee is negligible, but what will make that uneconomic is the double spread on the two fiat exchanges.

Tis was really the reason I started this thread - I wondered if the rules still applied.

I plan to have a go at picking up the coins that I've got from the recent forks, and, as a safety measure, I was going to move the Bitcoin I've got in various addresses into a different wallet. I had a bit of a wobbly yesterday when I tried to buy an external Toshiba drive. It seems that Seagate and WD are paying a major UK retailer to stop stocking Toshiba drives. There is more to the story, but I ended up walking out of the store without a drive. I'll pick up a drive next week, and start a process to claim my "free" alt coins.

Use a different bank, or just keep the coins.

Virtually all of the points you make apply to gold.

Bitcoin is not an illuminati scam, and it was created to help people to escape from the illuminati fiat currency scams. In fact they are so worried about a potential exodus, that I believe they are now buying Bitcoin in an attempt to cripple it.

I support the idea of this sub-section, and the recruitment of another mod.

Of course this wouldn't be needed if account sales were banned.

That will never happen - Bitcoin's future is as a store of wealth.

China was included in the IMF because the banking elite were concerned about the AIIB, but they were too late.

They are concerned about de-centralised crypto-currencies, and their inability to control them. It would appesar that the way for them to neutralise Bitcoin is to acquire all the available coins. This will render it unusable as a payment method, but build it as a store of wealth. They can then introduce controllable digital currencies to replace Bitcoin and fiat as a payment method.

If you watch what is going on, you will have noticed that the Deep State is transferring assets and manufacturing from the West to the East. This includes gold, manufacturing, oil control and banking deposits.

I suspect that in the end, it will come down to the way that HMRC can assess a disposal. If you buy a car from a dealer, then he has to account for the disposal of the car, and pay tax on the profit he makes. If you buy a car privately, then HMRC will have problems in establishing a value, and they probably won't even know about the sale.

You can get roll over relief is you exchange one crypto for another.
