bitcoin price is not and never been set by coins in circulation.

the price is only dependant on the SMALL amount of coin that is set on order lines.
what you find is that the small amount of coins is then bloated up by WALLS created by certain exchanges to try stabilise the markets vs other exchanges.

yep while the little guys play the penny changes to get their small 1% the big exchanges and arbitragers are playing the bigger game around different exchanges.

in short. the price does not need and doesnt have 180million users playing with $4k nor does it have 4k users with $180m

the market is actually controlled by a smaller group of people.
it does not nor ever has required millions of users to set or change the market.

once you see the orderlines make an order and cancel an order several times a second, you start to learn its all bot controlled by certain groups set across different exchanges.

its never been about XXXnumber of users. its about strategy of a few that have the positions and the walls to control the price.

yep. there is more market influence by 'arbitragers' that have no interest in actually buying and selling billions. but using their funds to make/break walls.

whether industry gets involved or millions of users get involved it wont affect the grand scheme of things in bitcoin price

once you get passed the idea of individual investors with their household bank account values. and instead realise the arbitragers not wanting different exchanges to go in different directions. and only go in one direction simultaneously. you will start to realise that industries and individuals dont really do much for the price

no it does not.
it requests businesses that offer a service to be a middleman for other parties to report.
but to be a business that offer a service to be a middleman for others you need to register as an MSB anyway

in short it affects brokers aka exchanges, escrows, remitters, altnet routers

calm down the fud.
accepting bitcoin for a coffee, or any product is not a broker otherwise fiat grocery stores would be brokers.
this is not the case. just accepting transactions is not what a broker does.

maybe try not to read reddit as much. and instead read the wording of the bill itself. without all the social drama of fud.

with that said. yes it allows businesses that are already MSB with a reporting portal to carry on with minimal change. where as newbies wanting to become exchanges now have an extra hurdle to jump to become valid exchanges in the eyes of the law.
the biggest impact is going to be them altnets that offer 'routing' services for users. as thats where the extra tax income the government predict will come from.
meaning regulated 'routes' would have to charge higher payment fees, making the altnets that offer 'faster payments' more expensive than promoted over the last 4 years

lets leap into this fantasy hypothetical, just for fun.

aliens wont trade bitcoins from their homeworld

aliens outside the solar system wont get great blocktimes due to speed of light delays of data transmission
1000light years. means todays block confirm wont be confirmed on the other planet for another 1000 years

what aliens would do, is trade in minerals while in earths orbit.. afterall its an essential need .. yep spacecraft need metal too.

yes while in earths orbit they may convert their metal into a cryptocoin value backed asset and then do some day-trading with humans under contracts that at expiry of contract the human holding the final contract has to take possession of the real mineral in orbit.
but thats as far as it will get

but bitcoin will not be a duo-galaxy currency.. because syncing the blockchain is impossible

a nations law cannot regulate/license its use legally until they first ban it and make it illegal

EG if alcohol prohibition did not happen to ban alcohol government could not then make alcohol licences to allow certain businesses to then operate as all businesses would still operate for free.

in short give it some time and china will start allowing licences

sounds less like an actual plan by the medical industry and sounds more like conspiracy nutter trying to recruit vegans into the conspiracy cult

whats the matter conspiracy looneys, are your followers decreasing and you get less adverts and less people buying your silly daily suppliments

for hundreds of years.. religion was government.. then some decided they needed something different. which is why politics came about

having 'god' as president where no one can question his motives nor question his messengers (the real leaders) made for a totalitarian and tyranical leadership. you cant de-throne 'god' because you cant even see where he sits to throw him off the seat

so people decided to get away from those countries and start new countries with new laws. not controlled by religion

government is suppose to be a different option than religion and only mention religion to pander to religious people to win them over to politics.

if government absorbs religion fully then it will cause more issues than benefits for people.

just because you dont understand fact, common sense doesnt mean other people dont.

its plain and clear to smart people that the grants to wuhan were not for experiments to be performed in wuhan
the money was given for samples and supplies to be sent to america. for america to do stuff.
its also clear if you do research, that what they done in america was actually a LOSS of function test

basically what they do is put virus under cold temperatures and collect the viral pathogens that still replicate at cold temperatures. then repeat the process by decreasing temperatures at each stage.
knowing the end result that does replicate at freezing temperature does not then like or replicate at normal temperatures.
this is how other viruses that lack replication are done. you know the other vaccines that use a viral vector as the base of a vaccine.

but hey badecker does not know this because he has not done the research on the topic he tries to talk about.
instead he wastes a year and a half not doing any research and just being a poster child for being a zombie copy/paster for conspiracy idiots.

badecker pretends to fear a future of a zombie apocalypse but has not woke up to the fact that he is one of them zombies. afraid to think for himself and look beyond the edges of his favourite media[conspiracy] sites

all badecker has learned over the last year and a half is how to become a fan of liars and conspiracy nuts and how to copy/paste their fantasy/fiction stories.

oh.. and lets not forget badeckers main theory..
.. the virus does not exist and no one has been able to identify/sequence/isolate it,.
which is him debunking his other conspiracy. because how can they work on a virus if they cant isolate/identify it.. well now badecker is stuck in a loop: can they isolate it or not?
i see badeckers mind now crashing trying to escape his infinity loop.

no new intel.. just badecker being a idiot

in pretty much the first page NN reference a 'report' made by some conspiracy people... and pretty much on the first page of that. it references a 502 word report from other scientists and such. where the actual wording said its creation/source was not from a lab or created as a bioweapon

thus these NN 'scientists' are wrong, and their only hope of sounding legit is that their 'report' is logged on a conspiracy site, as if being logged on a conspiracy site lends it any credence(it doesnt)
..
as for the grants and the work with the wuhan lab pre nov 2019
guess what
the US paid wuhan for samples and supplies and products to do tests in america.
not for gain of function. and not even on a strain close enough to covid..

but on a strain far from covid where the virus was not being tested for gain of function. but instead to remove the replication factor. (opposite of gain)
why. well. so they can try to make a sars vaccine.
much like they use other viruses missing the replication factor as a vaccine
well. guess what. they didnt follow through because it didnt become fit for purpose. and thats why they dont use it for any vaccines. because the test didnt pass

..
and if badecker done research instead of just copy/paste his idiot conspiracy site he would learn the NN summary is not even fact or based on intel. its actually gossip and misunderstanding based on the opposite of what their summary says

for kids its not about death rate..
the understanding of vaccinating kids is more about preventing high viral load/spread.

meaning instead of kids still going school because they are fit enough, but then breathing on others in high load amounts to then pass it around. a vaccination lowers the viral load so less passes around and thus less then spreads around the community.

while you are concerned about say kids dying in car accidents. though the death rate is low, you have to understand this rate is low because they dont allow kids to drive until they are 16.
so there are actually restrictions to prevent death related to car accidents that you are not thinking about.

in this instance using your comparison. a vaccination is comparable to the driving permit age limit. not to save kids from dying. but to save other pedestrians and other road users from getting hit due to the actions of a kid

a few reasons why the unemployment numbers are higher

1. people prefer to live on social assistance and fear going into crowded workplaces.
2. businesses found out last year they can still operate on thin labour. where they dont need people in the office and so they cut their labour.
3. businesses worked out they dont need promoted overpaid workers

vaccinated people are not dead.
millions of people are not dead.

the jobs market has changed compared to pre-pandemic. and it has nothing to do with millions of people dead

..
as for badeckers again mis understood vaers numbers
the minor ailments like a pain in the arm. everyone has a pain in the arm.. its called a needle prick. but not everyone is going to cry-baby about it and report it.
so the statistic that only 1% of things are reported are about the minor ailments that dont even require treatment.
.. yet the serious ailments is reported to a high percentage

just because 250million people did not cry and make a report that the needle hurt does not mean 250million people are dead. they are just getting on with their life knowing common sense that not everything needs to be reported.
funnily enough badecker would be first inline not to report things. even if serious.. because he is the idiot that when serious, he wont want a record of it.
so technically badecker is dead, because he wont want a record of serious ailments
(this year he has signs of mental issues, memory loss and such but i know he has not spoke to a doctor about it)

and thats what makes me laugh. he has no common sense about the difference of minor ailments that dont need to be reported and wont change the patients situation if reported. vs the major ailments that should and would be reported because seeing a doctor is needed in major circumstances

and thats why badecker cannot conceive the notion of the different statistics because he is too dumb to realise there are differences. he thinks its either everyone reports everything or no one reports anything. he cannot tell the differences that common sense shows normal people dont report minor stuff but do report major stuff.

many false assumptions

first. asics dont process transactions.
asics have no hard drives and no matter if a block is empty or full the asics job is the same

secondly
yep. devs can remove the cludgy stifling code that limits transaction count tomorrow. and asics would be unaffected. if average transaction count went to 4k or even 10k (physically possible with 4mb 'weight')
that can instantly mess with the analysts numbers. without touching a single extra asic

thirdly.
doing some actual maths based on the s19pro and average hashrate of 135exa for the time period=1.2mill asics at 15.8kg each with 136million transactions performed in last 1.3 years

the assumption at real data is actually 142g.. so they are doing a 2x multiplier to make things sound 2x worse. even when they cant even understand there is no correlation between transaction count vs asic count

because once vaccinated people feel more relaxed to mingle again.
i personally go out alot even to restaurants. because now vaccinated i dont mind getting covid because now if i get it the risks of severity/death is lower.
yep in first 1-5 months of vaccine is best time to get covid when your body is primed to get over it efficiently. after that the efficiency declines.

so yea im not gonna hide in a basement like antivaxxers for 3 years hoping the virus dissipates out of the community. as that wont happen.

yes government could have banned cross border travel completely in 2020 and stopped it at the border. but nah, its in now so we have to live with it.
atleast with the vaccine when i get infected i have better chances to survive it than antivaxxers.

yea seems your obsessed with heavy metal poisoning. your still stuck on the 1990's conspiracy against cellphones which was started by land line companies who didnt like the competition.
maybe try to do your research that realise that every time a new band is released a new conspiracy spiral begins based on the same flawed logic and lack of facts.
oh and gadolinium comes out in your urine in 24-48 hours. so anything your feeling years later is unrelated.

shows you body is reacting to it. which it should.
would you rather have a sore arm or be gasping for breath due to sore lungs..

funny part is you were perfectly fine in april 2020. saying covid is fake and other people pretending to be sick must be related to 5G
im guessing your going to say your pretend sickness april 2020 was cellphone and aluminium related. maybe stop licking metal doorknobs and you wont get a headache when people shut their door in your face

the point is that because there is a value difference between the US dollar in the US vs elsalvador. . elsalvadorians fear that the arbitrage ability now possible between us-elsalv may actually make the dollar cost of good in elsalvador become much higher

take a couple examples
US mainland
Loaf of Fresh White Bread (500g)    2.74 $
Rice (white), (1kg)    3.98 $    

el salvador
Loaf of Fresh White Bread (500g)    1.58 $
Rice (white), (1kg)    1.35 $

imagine if bitcoin causes el salvador to have to put up its USD prices of bread to become 1.74x
imagine if bitcoin causes el salvador to have to put up its USD prices of rice to become 2.95x

yes elsalvador can just avoid using bitcoin. but that does not stop the exchange rate between mainland and el salv from flipping where the price of goods suddenly inflate in USD prices

another small group hated it because they were promised $30. but by the time they went to exchanges(atms) to cash out. they didnt get $30, so felt ripped off and lied to about a 'promise' told to them by government

comedy gold
the funny part is by actually respecting other peoples personal space. there is no fear.
i go out each day. for a walk, or a ride or a drive. i go into stores without concern.

by understanding the risks you can learn to do normal things. but seems after a year you are still crying about facemasks and social distancing so you have not learned the basic hygiene and respect for yourself and others.

just today i was out and walking around town for 5 hours going in different shops. no worry no fear.
everyone in town has their own understanding too.. its like when you learn to drive and learn the 2second rule to learn how to keep a distance from the car infront.. after a while it just because a subsonscieous process where you dont even realise your doing it. and everyone is the same. they just move about without thinking about it.

seems you are very very much stuck in march 2020 where you arw still not sure of yourself and think that doing respectful things as a massive hardship/chore

i had a lunch today consisting of a burger and a alcoholic drink. must have been atleast 80 people in there sitting or walking around. no one was worried... because they know and have got used to respecting others

you have no clue at all. please just take a few days holiday away from conspiracy sites. and try visiting other sites. try getting out the house. learn some real life stuff.

there were stuff like this happening in the sars/mers era. the ebola era.
yep facemasks are not a 2020 invention. neither are body bags

funny part is none of those videos are of covid.
its actually training scenarios done for the last decade. you know emergency preparedness training. its what most emergency services do quite alot of

do you really think people just apply for the job and get given a name badge and thats it.. no they do training first.

dang tvbcof, even your common sense about employment and training has failed you.

seems alot of people have no clue about the cultural and political structures.

thinking that a capitalist nation makes everyone prosper and do things for the betterment of common man. is the most idiotic thing to even dream of saying let alone saying it publicly.

capitalist is about guys at the top taking money from those at the bottom,.for the betterment of those at the top.
whereby no laws or regulations exist to stop this.

socialism is where the money that goes in from the top and the bottom helps all. especially those that NEED it rather than just those that WANT it.

too many times people dont actually understand socialism and instead just automatically take media narrative of communism mispronounced as socialism

so here is a question for you

if 200million people earning less than say $25k a year. had to put $2.5k into the treasury
($500billion)
and say 100million higher earners who know some loop holes only had to put in $1k each
($100bill)
would you call that fair?


next. do you prefer that $600billion to be used in which allocation
a.$50bill social security $400bill government contracts linked to politicians. $150bill commerce
b.$50bill social security $400bill commerce $150bill government contracts linked to politicians.
c.$150bill social security $400bill government contracts selected by public need. $50bill commerce

a= communism  b= capitalism   c=socialism

i call B.S on many stats in that report

the fools stupidly think if a pool uses XXth and in that country of say 5 power plants only 3 are renewable . they stupidly deem it as the pools XXth is only 60% renewable

reality is that the asic farms set up a warehouse in the region of one of those 3 renewable power stations specifically for the reason of cheap 'excess' electric contracts
and is infact 100% renewable because its getting its power from the renewable power plant direct.

ever since 2014  asic farms have always set up near renewables. its actually the silly residential hobby miners that cant control their home setup. and the percentage in that group is low.
its actually the crappy altcoins that are hashing from hobby homes because no one cares much about altcoins to want to invest in large corporate farms. so its altcoins like doge that are the most carbon dirtiest

...
also saying that bitcoin uses 189twh is B.S

bitcoin for the last year has never ever approached more then say 200exahash EVER
so lets do some math and lets assume if every day was 180exa(no day is equal but lets assume so)
take 2 machines from 2 generations for lower and upper
(a)s19 95thash 3.25kw
(b)s19pro 110thash 3.25kw

(a) (180000000th/95th)
=1894736.842105263 asics
=6157894.736842105 kwh
=6157.894mwh
=6.1579gwh
=53943.15789473684gwh a year
=53.94twh a year

(b) (180000000/110th)
=1636363.636363636 asics
=5318181.818181818 kwh
=5318.181 mwh
=5.318181 gwh
=46587.27gwh a year
=46.587twh a year

meaning AT MOST IF EVERY DAY WAS 180EXA the low and upper bound would be 46-54tw .. not 189tw
(c)even if you do the math of the very very old s9 (14th for 1.4kw)
again if every day had the hashrate of 180exa. then the upper bound would be 157tw

so not having every day as 180exa means all numbers shown above are lower then that.

heck lets do the actual math, the average hashrate is only 138exa over the year.
meaning the tw utilised is somewhere between
(a) 41.35tw
(b) 35.71tw
(c) 120.36tw

meaning at best they are off by 33% at worse they are off by 81%

most of the s9 fangirls moved them crappy outdated hardware over to the altcoins in the mining dip drama of autumn 2018
these days most asics are the s19 range or other brand equivalent
so estimates for 2021 should be more like 35-41tw range. and no where near 189tw

but when men.. in their imagination are 'protecting' but in reality defiling woman mentally and physically.. that should face stern justice too..

woman can look after themselves and make choices for themselves. if a man starts to think he has to do things for a woman against her will/choice. again that rape

its not for men to make these decisions that affect a womans biology, body or freedoms or choices.

seems the mindset that man has to be the 'natural law protector' maybe those men should start by getting a job and then using the money to buy condoms

(im a guy but i can atleast see the sexist remarks that some idiot guys make pretending they are being 'protector' when what they really mean is controller.. so to you and guys like you.. get out of the 1800's and remind yourself its 2021)
