Marc Andreessen (the header of Andreessen Horowitz)think BTC is better than Apple Pay. How do you think about it?
Here are my thoughts: - Comparing BTC to Apple Pay is like comparing USD to Apple Pay. BTC is a currency, Apple Pay is a transaction processing system. They're incomparable.
- As far as BTC use in retail vs. Apple Pay, I think Apple Pay could hinder BTC transaction adoption at the consumer level. For instance, Apple Pay would hurt BitPay and other BTC transaction systems.
- It's true, Android has had NFC for years, but they have lacked wide-adoption. Apple doesn't necessarily bring a new idea to the table, they just execute better. Hopefully Apple Pay will help broaden use of NFC as a whole, and with that, hopefully it will make BTC usage easier in the future. So it's not really BTC vs. NFC - it's more like Apple Pay and NFC could be a the stepping stone to mass BTC usage.
Lastly, Marc Andreessen is heavily invested in BTC, so it's obvious he would say that. He should have said that BTC is incomparable because it's a currency, but he wanted to make a broad (and stupid) statement I guess. My point being - read between the lines. He's biased. It's like Tim Cook saying Apple Pay is better than BTC, well no shit. Yes is waste of time to camper something that has so little in common. |

Is there a place where you can go short on altcurrencies like Cannabiscoin?  A market cap of 5 mil $ is not serious I dont think there cant get short of any coin. If you are wiling to pay right price you can get any quantity of any coin. Well you cant go more then there is existence.  |

Fat Tay Choon went to the Mining Academy in Brazil, east of Satoshi's yurt, where Gavin was kidnapped by the CIA's goons and forced to pretend fucking an anonymous decentralized biscuit—better than all the fish in the Pacific Ocean—but also to defray leeches intelligently with ECDSA fighting qubits for 16.8 dree12, or Phinnaeus must fling toilets towards psy‐ops, without potato smoothies mixed with fried chicken wings from BitMunchies.com, urbanchickennj.com, and Popeye's Bitcoin wallet, which deleted Satoshi's premine ability to cheer very victoriously, none like Butterfly Labs better enabled, but also Pirate crashing AIR applications without the express use of interest-free scams, conspiring with fraudulent sockpuppets and PPTs and..., you troll-herding piece of Shiitake mushroom, go lick Goat's horns until Theymos admits to having a quite erotic fetish involving honey badgers wearing thongs composed of soggy burlap waffles dangling from cosmic linoleum-based iphones running quantum chips explodes spewing deadly acid! b!z screamed out "Light is bright like...like... stars." When Markjamrobin opens the isolated window, he sees three pigs together in bed. Kouye and myself laugh when chinese food falls the impact kills Obama Bin ladin whoever thinks he may be terrorist, is correct but hates the bitcoin logo. Earth has snakes. Currently, the other species have decimated to tiny groups called "marko solo" whatever time it all comes and ends? However, Bitcoin's acidity level dipped causing catastrophic double-spends!
Meanwhile, AntiOps was confused by the awkward change to his penis melting uncontrollably. Vanilla Ice perfume spritzed onto cheese and greasy slime covered with babies boiled in a smelly old heatsink. But it tasted like shit therefore it poisoned his blood although he did survive. Reproductive organisms attacked the internal testicle which caused terrible congestion somehow. Evolution then terminated the smelly old business thank the inability of AntiOps to lock Satoshi's thread. In a transactional forum there was a debate about hacking unprotected accounts, however the debate shortly ended.
Phinnaeus Gage, king pluto, duke of the people. Returned one of his loans that he fraudulently claimed without declaring intentionally. Although this was bullshit. Earth was hit by a meteor which cause catastrophic events which cause people to cause mass destruction by proxy voting it was documented recently on the news that oranges are disguised anti-gravity pockets which have giant bears attacked Zeus because bitcoin accidentally crashed to Mars which created spaceships and aliens who pretended being humans wearing hats on their toes.
Altcoin suck on apples and oranges too. Megacoin is the most shit sucker of apples and melons ever. Most people love to troll others. Evolution is a slow process which created forks. It is beneficial to wash your feet because it distributes bacteria and oil, notwithstanding the beneficial attributes which are how chocolate arouses some of the miners brains. Today was an abysmal event which caused many abnormal but not smart bitcoiners because many of them are cute animals who were insane because of excessive oreo consumption. One watermelon is not love how people try me explotation Maybe Heisenberg Breaking bad control guy director or masturbation my time vampire drinks urine not lemon tek and water supernatural.
LEALANA is fat looking because pizza is sour with pickles which are sexy and never rot. So many people eat pizza it's unbelievable. The news said that pizza is bought mainly with anchovies which results in big wet weather which had massive gusts of wind with pouring milk down on everyones throat because it feels great! Although honey is very sweet taste it makes when it is served hot it melts softly but slowly.
The universe is populated with many planets which were destroyed by pirateat40. Cyborgs then warped to the zoo and ate mushroom with a aerospace technician. Bitcoin has used a lot resources from peoples although people smell like melons.
Ipods suck. Androids rule. Altcoins also suck peanuts. Bitcoin is the greatest idea that has ever been created by man although litecoin sucks? Once upon a time Gandalf went to wal-mart to dry her hair. Minecraft is the best game in universe because chickens cluck. 231134421 is one crazy big ass monkey. What is with people posting replies still. Terraria is a crazy game which requires extreme concentration. This can result in health cubes; Parentheses are a pain in the brain. This noodle is disgusting. Although spaceships cry waterfalls they are magical little elves. Golden towns is very annoying and smell like bacon. Celebrities are awesome and smart. But, evolution taught us that butterflys are ugly.
Vitamin D is important to scam Taras and raise taxes which would cause the world to go crazy but not insane. Obama is the president now. Alot of gamers will illustrate sony that nintendo is leading the infiltration of Iran. Microsoft Windows was salivating pedophiles of the coastal farts. Yet the banana shrank. What was doge poo doing under the bridge with bridge cleaner? He was just he's aren't because something something different like seems incorrect, because we fucked. Yet prunes prunes are very bad lad's yet unknown to fuckers SWEARING. Banana monkey is not virgin-horse. Corn.
This disappoints satan more than satoshi because he ate hydrochloric pools and he fucked whores who are sick shemales shemales shemales BANGCOCK! God smited non-believers with dicks on a stick. They shat together sitting upside-down flicking birdies. Baezl'bub slept with Hitler inside a bomb ticking furiously and hodling. That was awesome. Bitmit made belt so that walruses can shit on his dick and eat mushroom full of wonderful shit, he HODL'd BTCs and Dogecoin with a succubus sperm from first blowjob stories.
Nefarious words spoken shit at bitcointalk and destroyed uranus with a big-ass Spaceship mouth that eats goats flying shuttle that revolves expressly and quietly to hell. Gamma flux destroyed Litecoin with a barracks producing Atreides shit and Kadafi. Same Binladen puppet goxed clients sucking lollipops shaped like mixed frapuccino lids. Goku start this fight prematurely in Odessa Klondike's yard. Winter is not shitty. Gooches. Seven.
Humanity sold pubes to Zeus. Nevertheless, Cinnamon was crying. Millennium breakdown caused diversification methheads cardinally. Hyper-inflation, epidemics with marshmallows made by government chodes and yeah. The End. No. Yes. Lies. Stop. Can. Do aliens have any bitcoins? No. Instead, PPC acts quickly like FTL shit, riffraff toys.
Miracles happen like cannibals spitting sinew and elephants which innocent love and shit has never fucked up! Dank has killed bysexuals... wait, when did Karpeles said/say McDonald's sucks?
Colonel Tom sex-machine The 3.14159265358th must fook anything that goes into a section. Beaware of spellcheckers. Fantômas portuguese are sobriquet of Fernão who called them

What are the grounds in banning a member here?
If you dont follow forum rules. they are listed in "Meta" part of forum i think. But moderators are much more light at actually punishing people. There are many braking those rules and just stay here unpunished. |

eh there at least 3~5 orders of magnitude left for btc to grow into
3 orders of magnitude is 1000. So if BTC is $400 today it will be worth $400 000 a coin then. Five orders is 100000, so btc will be worth $40,000,000 a coin. Forty million a coin!!! I will be rich with my tenth of a BTC coin holdings! You are rich already. |

Bitcoin will not go below $300.
Why, Thy said will not go under 500, not go under 400, why would not go under 300? Because it already hit the bottom, the only way is up.. There is no bottom actually. When enough people decide to sell price will move down to any level. |

Bitcoin become international. Some countries dont have work free days on Saturday and Sunday.

The fact that these threads and topics are not gaining enough attention is enough to tell you people are little concern for legitimacy in crypto.
Professionals are coming.
Professionals aren't really paying attention to crypto because they know anyone who touch it will get instant scrutiny from government. this depends in which country you live in some companies are quite interested. Those countries will become new regional bitcoin information centers. Countries that ignore bitcoin will stay behind and wil have problems to catch up in future. |

apparently we can't get any higher than 420 420 is a important barrier. There will be 21 million BTC one day. There are so many price floors and barriers! What I am seing is the price holding up once again Going up is one thing but breaking $420 is other thing. |

Gambling on price is always an irrational thing to do. Given long enough, all gamblers eventually lose it all.
If you gamble in casino this will happen if you gamble on stock exchange is same chance you win as if you lose. |

$10000 ? Sometime in 2017, folks LOG chart trend line tells me that very clear:  Someone will bump this thread in 3 years so.. I hope you are not too optimistic with your predictions on there and you are right. All that chart reveals is that there is a high degree of probability that the lowest point in the year 2017 is greater than $10,000. This leads me to believe that by 2017 the average price will have to be well north of that. I think $10,000 in 2017 is ultra conservative. I actually anticipate that price tag sometime in 2016....although 2015 is most certainly game If things go write 10,000$ in 2017 wouldn't be surprising but things can go wrong; hopefully they won't and we will see a price in the 5digits before 2020 Stop dreaming of year 2020, that is crypto far future. in 6 years can even new cryto era begin and all we know so far will be proved wrong. |

Buy bitcoin and hold until the next next halving in 2020...
In 6 years so many things can happen. Even time to next halving is pure speculation, till next next is fantasy. |

With the chinese economy slowly down substantially and US economy gradually picking up, it's inevitable that china will lag behind US.
Unless anyone wants to bring up that weak argument about PPP because it's so full of holes and corruption - there's a good reason why PPP is not considered a good measure of economic power especially since globalization.
Is this true? You have any numbers? You want to say China BDP increase was less then USA one in 2013? |
