My bank continues to crack down on me. Just got a call that I can't withdraw my money from kraken to my bank account anymore.
As annoying as this is, it's also good news. If they didn't think bitcoin mattered they wouldn't bother. I'll just have to do all my business in person, maybe use the occasional atm.
Easy solution: stop using banks. Looks like that will have to happen. If I can start buying plane tickets with bitcoin then at this point all I need them for is to pay my cell phone bill. And my family can handle that from another account. Has Expedia removed Bitcoin payments? Edit: Looks like it has. |

In which country are you having this problem. (I intend to use Kraken to withdraw too in the future) Denmark. Fuck Denmark New season soon. |

Don’t worry about B1tUnl0ck3r
He had an unfortunate incident with the CIA and a tub of butter. He hasn’t been the same since.
You will be fine.
What incident involves a tub of butter? Did it involve a microwave and N64 games? |

Anyone need kidney?  " There are no excuses to be a nocoiner.
The biggest-ticket organ you can legally sell in the U.S. is your heart: They're going for a cool $1 million. Livers come in second, worth about $557,000 and kidneys fetch about $262,000 each.
That's like 200 BTC right there." https://twitter.com/CryptoBull/status/1146115603469623296We're on the edge of printing organs like toilet paper, so selling a kidney might not be the dumbest idea for younger folks. |

$6,790. Just enough to make everyone poo their pants. Then massive green dildo.
If you want me to poo my pants any more than usual you'll have to add another zero. |

London financial pages tonight  Propaganda watchdog, DireWolfM14 warns that News Papers are not the unbiased, fair, and honest information delivery medium many assume them to be. Most people today still believe that news outlets which deliver information through the use of paper products are trustworthy. Studies by watchdog DireWolfM14 suggest, like their digital cousins these publications are wrought with bias, misinformation, omissions, and in some cases demonstrable lies. "It's a tragedy that these organizations aren't held accountable for misleading people," DireWolfM14 stated in a recent interview. "The fact that they can omit relevant information from a news story allows them the steer a certain narrative, and promote bias within their readership, a bias that may not develop if the readers were well informed." When asked to provide a specific example DireWolfM14 was quoted as saying "Just pick up any news paper that has written an article or Op-Ed about bitcoin, and I'll prove to you the reporter is a shithead who doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground." In all fairness, try being the poor sucker journalist that has to write sensibly about Arsenal’s latest match, the Spratly islands, methamphetamine addiction in Bromley, the new All-New Ford Kuga, whisky tasting and Bitcoin. And then be judged by experts in each area. Shit is hard yo. Very simple solution. Print and clearly declare opinions of people from as many sides as you can identify and sensibly fit into an article. If you still feel like commenting afterwards you can do so at the end of the article. Anything else is bullshit and not journalism. So if someone's getting shit for writing crap he's getting it in all fairness for being a journalistic failure. |

Why does the crypto world seem to be infested with more than its fair share of alt-right loons?
Could it be that the leftie-loons consider anybody normal an alt-right loon? ^This! - Your resident leftie loon Is that what you think normal people do? HairyMaclairy is a dweeb, the truth is that Bitcoin has a lot of people who are small government and want the people to be able to control their funds. That is a conservative and right wing view. Now why would you want crypto to succeed if you're a liberal and want government control in everything? It doesn't make sense. and of course with a community so big now you'll get some crazies. Do you agree that Trump should be elected president for life? I actually don't see an issue with long-term presidencies as long as proper checks and balances are installed beforehand. In fact, lots of political horseshit boils down to either lifelong leaders being able to do whatever they want (China) or short-term leaders having zero incentive to think long-term (Western democracies). Rather than one "lifetime" election there should just be an option for re-election beyond a second term though. That might already be enough "checks and balances". Although, with a population this short-sighted there probably still won't be sufficient incentive in thinking long-term, since people are clearly too incompetent to anticipate anything beyond a fat sow's jump. |

Good news-it would mean unbelievable prices ahead (300K-500K)
You braindead, idiot scammers in this thread have NEVER once explained how the price of Bitcoin can go to $500k or even $50k while cost of production is $3-6k. Velocity of money. |

How to manage finances and mental health are the two subjects that should be taught in every school.
So many people have no idea on either
Both deteriorate when you stop being a child and start learning "how to behave in the 'real' world". A kid looks for all possibilities that it can possibly imagine. Then picks the best for themselves. The older they get the more they lose this ability because of dysfunctional education and become slaves to dysfunctional norms. If you let them be with only minor directions and hints (when they ask for them) the more competent they will become. If you look for all possibilities naturally you will never stop learning and improving. Once you start trying to conform to what is "right" and "wrong" you become an unhappy, miserable and stuck-in-place cog. |

my 2c about bitcoin and [helping] children.
IMHO, parents should help children achieve what they want to achieve and that's it.
Practically: get them into the best pre-school and school that you can manage/afford, guide their learning and sports activities (in balance), never deny them what they ask as far as education goes (museums, trips, etc.).
I also think that parents should pay as close to 100% of educational expenses (including college) as possible.
After this, the only way I see myself helping is a house downpayment (in expensive cities).
They have to be able to be independent, not rely on trust funds, even if your btc winnings would allow for this in a few years.
Later on, they will get their inheritance, but, hopefully, they would be ready for it then.
More important (but complementary) than official education is how you prepare them to manage financial resources (their income and capital), more so if some day they will get a substantial heritage. But to learn how to do that they really need to actually do it and that is hard to do without ANY capital to manage. So maybe set up practical lessons give them the resources to do it and clearly establish objectives, etc... and go on gradually increasing the challenges? I have seen so many "successful" people with HUGE salaries that are far from being *wealthy* because of lack of financial education. They will always be "poor". And their children won't know any better with that example. Blah, anyways, I don't ever plan to have children so why do I even care lol It's not as much financial education as it is self-responsibility. If people took their lives into their own hands nobody would be whining over salaries since they would understand that even the smallest salary is a leap towards a better future. So responsibility for one's fate would lead to either complete content in a simple lifestyle or to a wealthy future of the individual in question. The moment a critical mass of people understands this will be the very same moment humanity makes leaps and bounds as never seen before, since those who prefer simple lifestyles will cheer for those who push forward into the beyond of every human frontier. And that in turn will encourage people to determine goals that are more in-line with everybody's dreams and wishes as opposed to shitting some extra digits at the end of one's net worth. Also, this may be completely off-topic. But damn, Bitcorn goes fast when it goes. |

I think anyone who likes their meat overcooked is a closet vegetarian. That includes bacon.
While I don't require my bacon to be bleeding Pittsburgh blue like my rib eyes and filet mignons, it should at least be chewy, preferably nice and tender.
Brittle? That's a sacrilege. Want crispy foods? Go fry some tofu, potatoes or tortillas. Or eat celery and carrot sticks
Whenever I cook with mince I eat a good portion of it raw. And I still love my crispy bacon. The char has something unique that juicy bacon doesn't offer. Time and place kind of thing. Also, I'm generally not into chewy food. I hate squid and octopus for that reason, although the taste is fine (marinated tender octopus is a treat). |

Time to play around with gin. Does anybody know which of the Fever Trees pairs with Roku? Are there any synergistic combos or should I just get all? I only ate raw chicken gizzards and similar 'delicacies' because of a bet. Not charming at all.
The right cut of raw horse is very tasty IMO, but I only had it twice.
Grilled intestines of several animals are quite popular worldwide. I've eaten such delicacies in different countries. Even gizzards: if properly seared or grilled, they are a peculiar treat.
I feel strongly repulsed by innards for some reason, don't like bones in my meat either. But I'm willing to eventually experiment some. Used to hate mushrooms and other stuff and can eat them now. Still not particularly interested in them, but at least they don't make me gag anymore. And if people are already eating that stuff anyways there have to be some tasty treats that I've been missing out on. Perhaps during my next trip. |

Ok just cause y'all bacon enthusiasts ..... I have to say some of my days of eating that.... I loved my bacon thin and crispy AF coming with some goat cheese and honey or something, gonna need to watch myself for not switching back to tha meat Goose, do you ever wonder if life is too short to deny yourself the pleasures of meat? At least have some meat with your WO friends to celebrate at the 100k party next month  Just source it from proper places and there's no problem with it. None of us would exist today if not for countless species eating each other for all of time. And if everybody goes vegan/vegetarian instead of supporting farmers who care for animal welfare (or a few years from now cultured meat) things will take much longer to improve. |
