Não oferece serviço nenhum? Você não considera serviço uma equipe de pessoas criar um programa que captura os preços de centenas de exchanges em todos os países do mundo, cria uma média dos preços e cria o seu próprio índice do preço do bitcoin?
Eles também, teoricamente, tiram as exchanges que não prestam do seu índice, etc.


Não 'e só um serviço, mas 'e um serviço essencial na minha opinião.

Tanto você quanto o Tryninja cortaram a parte essencial do sentido da minha frase.

"E digo valer [n]não no sentido que era um exagero,[n] mas no sentido de ter capturado tanta atenção oferecendo algo simples."

Eu tentei deixar claro que não comentava sobre a avaliação do valor, ou discutindo o fato de achar que valia mais ou menos. Mas pelo fato que é um portal que arrecada com publicidade. Serviço é uma venda direta de um produto entre duas partes.

O portal principal do Google não oferece serviço algum, ganha com publicidade. O serviço é oferecido por outros setores da empresa. Incluindo a venda de anúncios, que é do adsense, no portal principal.

Eles informam sobre algo e arrecadam com publicidade. 

Tinha sido avaliada em 600 milhões. Bizarro. Um site sem nenhum serviço valer isso. E digo valer não no sentido que era um exagero, mas no sentido de ter capturado tanta atenção oferecendo algo simples. Não tinha nenhuma ideia sobre isso. Aqui tem um artigo falando:

E aqui um artigo falando sobre o ex dono que estava linkado ao primeiro artigo

Era praticamente um cara sozinho e isolado do mundo.

I believe it is a great short opportunity. You can profit a lot by holding shorts call and receiving the Funding Rebate. It was an impressive up but with little real purchase volume, a lot of speculation

It doesn't make any sense what you said. This is a forum and Bitcoin is a social experiment. Neither are
for-profit corporation.

"Might also have to go back to more paid work myself soon.

I appreciate those who have stepped up to sponsor my work, but it seems there's simply too few willing to contribute. "

I think that more industries should have attitudes like this. But all developers seem to have some kind of link to contributions. Whether by pages like the patreon or by direct donation.

This idea of a company being the largest, and only, sponsor of a core developer, does not seem very good. These companies should join the thousands of other individual sponsors. Therefore, it would be more difficult to believe that there is any kind of benefit for these companies.

 O que eu estava lendo é que a grande suspeita é sobre lavagem de dinheiro. Tá parecendo que existe uma operação coordenada de várias agencias buscando lavagem de dinheiro que utiliza corretoras de Bitcoin. Nessa mesmo encontraram ao menos 8 grandes operações. Tem o caso da Bitmex e alguns outros também.
 Eu to bem preocupado. Acho que isso terá um grande impacto nos preços. Pois além disso ainda tem a segunda onda na europa, Eleições americanas, Reinfecção confirmada do Covid.

 Acho que as bolsas vão despencar. Tenho mais experiência com bovespa e está puxando pra baixo. Nasdaq está estranha também, foi quem levou o mundo pra esse pump financeiro mesmo com todo o resto fudido. Isso deve impactar demais no preço do Bitcoin.

Inflation, Inflation, Inflation.
Americans doesn't have much idea of how destructive inflation is. But billionaires know it well. That is why they are looking for exotic investments that can help escape the possible global inflation that we are going to experience. In addition to the extremely low interest rates that encourage you to risk more with investments.

Eles tinham que diversificar o investimento em projetos fora desse top10. Seria mais divertido. Investir naquelas moedas do DiFI ou desses outros projetos completamente loucos. Chance de ganhar 500% ou zerar seria mais próximo da realidade.

I thought it was really stupid. Unfortunately he continues to use his money for this type of marketing. The name blockchain is very strong and probably used a lot. Too bad he bought it to redirect to TRON. Blockchain.com is one of the most well-known sites.

Maybe he finally found the hd he was looking for. With the Bitcoin he had mined. Imagine the feeling, it must be incredible. I find it very unlikely that this is a trader's strategy, or that he will use an exchange. But he will probably realize some of the profit he made.

Or maybe someone found an old HD from another owner, his password. There are many possibilities and I believe that most have to do with some forgotten and unsaved wallet.

Segundo o autor do principal artigo sobre o tema, Klaus Schwab, é preciso criar novos pilares para o sistema economico e social do planeta. Ele argumenta que o covid demonstrou que podemos abandonar alguns princípios no nosso estilo de vida que eram considerados essenciais.  

Algumas das sugestões são que os investimentos tenham alguns objetivos além do lucro rápido como fundos de recuperação. Focar as inovações para os problemas de saúde e sociais. Utilizar impostos e taxas para atingir metas ambientais etc.

For most people when reading about any crypto project they tend to find out about Bitcoin as well. So in theory it helps to know more about the whole ecosystem. Since DeFi is complex and requires study.

But as mentioned, no DeFI is built on top of Bitcoin. It does not use the same code. It is not possible to trade with Bitcoin.

The only impact is on the Fomo that people use and end up buying everything while the bubble is rising.

Elections are more about the value of the dollar. So far there have been few statements about Bitcoin from candidates. I don't know their position. But the dollar is very volatile, many bet on a devaluation, this would affect the price of Bitcoin increasing its value in relation to the dollar. Inflation, unbridled printing of money, increase in the debt bubble.

Now, this is in the long run. Most want to understand the impacts in the 6 months after the election.

"The dollar may tumble to its lows of 2018 on the rising likelihood of Joe Biden winning the U.S. election and progress on a coronavirus vaccine, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc"

The real news is to know that they still have access to the wallet. This is the most worrying. Trying to understand what strategies they could use is a curiosity I have. What would be the next steps? The main thing is to use it in a way that doesn't bring connections, so they can't buy anything directly. Would they probably use a mixer or an exchange?

I found this post here offering the reward.

 I believe it could be a good opportunity to earn some money to plan their next steps and anticipate how to find out who they are or any leads.

You are missing the point, as long as Bitcoin and cryptos, decentralized, in general, are not imposed by a government by force, you will always have options. And that includes making centralization as difficult as possible. There will always be fork options, changing the code by consensus. And several other options that make centralization difficult for one region or goverment.

Bitcoin is a choice of people, for people.

Até pq preço é o mercado que impõem. Queria ver se eles garantiriam esse valor mínimo de recompra por alguns meses ou ano ou em determinada data. É sempre uma tentativa de criar o famoso FOMO. Medo de ficar de fora e perder a oportunidade da vida.

Their twitter account seems to have been suspended. And the activity on Reddit is minimal. But I think you're talking about the price, right? This is more complicated, I do not think they have reached any major news for the price to rise more than the average.

What you really need to understand, is the power that being able to print your own money has. That's why there are so many currency. We live in a world of financial leverage. Printing today means controlling the basic interest rate of your economy, The government's ability to borrow at the rate it wants. Control the population's purchasing power. Control imports and exports.

It becomes very difficult to have a caged beast like Bitcoin, free in your country. The government loses that power and needs to create other instruments if it wants to continue to have that control.

That said, Bitcoin can only become a currency with great circulation in a country if society does so. Society needs to start seeing its advantages and freedoms. It is the power that breaks borders and diminishes governments, especially those that are excessively controlling.

 Incredible as an extremely centralizing project. Owned by a company that has already demonstrated that it is not necessary to use it for its projects. It finds so much potential and market yet. We have several innovative projects looking for the oracle of decentralization. It is bad to have this project at such a relevant level and attracting so many big investors. They should invest in innovation. Support those who can truly revolutionize.

DeFi's big challenge is regulation. I believe if Biden wins, we will have a fall never seen before. Unlike Bitcoin which has been gaining support, new projects are still viewed with great suspicion. Mainly by regulators. Bitcoin is heading towards being a commodity. DeFi challenges many people, including those who run the money.
