why anybody pay 1 million for domain name?!

It would be great if Bitcointalk did something to prevent scams. But sadly they do not care at all. The moderators here do not even care to close a topic with a virus in a wallet.

The bar needs to be raised big-time! We should do something as a community.

Maybe it is time for a new forum that takes altcoins more serious.

Clearly you forgot #8 :

8: The propagation of information is limited to the speed of light. Therefore in the year 3973 people on Earth won't be able to keep the same blockchain as the people across the galaxy. Just won't scale. Transactions could take millenia! Clearly doomed!

The original Bitcoin protocol is very innovative. However, there are several reasons for why today's cryptocurrencies will fail:

1. Too slow transaction times for general use.
2. Too bloated block chain for mainstream adoption.
3. Having to store coins "under the mattress" is a step backwards.
4. Proof of work will lead to too large transaction fees.
5. Proof of stake leads to the rich getting richer.
6. Lack of government support prevents mainstream use.
7. Trading against ordinary fiat currencies causes volatility.

I'm talking about waves with large wavelengths

Anita is sexist against men to an absolute extreme, and one of the biggest hypocrite you can find on the internet. She says that if a man is saving a woman in a video game, then it must mean that the woman is portrayed as totally helpless. She also says that if a woman is the hero and sacrificing her safety to save others, then the game is promoting violence towards women. Nothing that Anita says ever holds true across any of her claims. No matter what happens in a game, it is always portraying women badly from her warped perspective. It is the classic "have your cake and eat it too" example of a hypocrite. Sorry, you just can't have it both ways, ever.

You seem to have fallen for the neo-liberal fallacy, in that, because there exist 50% women in the population, that all jobs, hobbies, and sports should consist of 50% women. By your logic, 50% of Alaskan crab fishing should be female, 50% of bodybuilders should be female, and 50% of preschool teachers should be male. What you fail to understand is that men and women are measurably different. Men are physically stronger, taller, and cannot give birth. There are a multitude of factors that go into the gender imbalance throughout all jobs, hobbies, and sports. If you cannot acknowledge basic reality, then please don't go around spreading your illogical nonsense.

There is no worldwide conspiracy or some unspoken code that men who use bitcoin live by in order to keep women out. Women are the reason that there are not more women bitcoiners. When they see that it can benefit them, more women will join the cause. That is where you come in. Instead of running around and pointing your hateful fingers at every man in the world, how about you actually do something positive and help get more women involved? Or do you just want to spread hatred like Anita?

I'll explain. Adoption of cryptocurrencies comes in "waves" obviously. XMR was released in "downtrend" cryptocurrency wave. XMR problem is that its curve is steep making a point of release more important to BBRs. Hope this makes it more clear

I'll separate this following things addressed to aminorex.

Generally, comparing XMR to BTC is too far stretched. Bitcoin has whole industry behind it which will make it no 1 store of value for a long time to come. I used to think high of XMR, but now i think that shillers, and FUDsters of BBR, can not replace whole BTC industry. Further, XMR will not have army of GPU miners to come to support it in the near future, and BBR just might

Aminorex, i usually find your post eye openers, agree with them, or just like humor in them. OK, some of them i have problem reading without English dictionary, and few of them do not have time to try to understand just yet due to my lack of knowledge of economics. But some things i can understand, and i can not agree unconditionally with your argument of liquidity regarding Monero, simply because i do not think that CNs are used for real "purposes" - atm they are used mainly for speculation. "Real word" usage may turn tides on no 1. privacy currency, only time can tell which it will be imo.

That is exactly the reason i think Monero will be overtaken by BBR. Monero just has to steep curve to be properly distributed without large mining-marketing campain. Things would be different if it was released at a beginning of cryprocurrency hipe, but now Monero will spend large amount of life in time period that is skeptical to cryprocurrencies - which will affect its distribution to extent that will not reach satisfactory nettwork effect imo. Generally, comparing XMR to BTC is too far stretched. Bitcoin has whole industry behind it which will make it no 1 store of value for a long time to come. I used to think high of XMR, but now i think that shillers, and FUDsters of BBR, can not replace whole BTC industry.

Let the games begin. Maybe I should just write a novel.....

Here are 5 steps for Coin Source to become a trusted crypto verification source.

1. SSL. Only takes a little bit of verification.
2. All members must pass the trust index themselves. To be a public trust index you have to provide the consumer with the trust, not the other way around.

Bitcointalk forum ID – Published on website profile
Social media – Verify by a Tweet
Mobile phone – Published on website profile
Mailing address – Published on website profile
State ID or license – Published on website profile a photograph of you holding your drivers license with details omitted.
3. Remove premium membership.
4. Remove the associated altcoin.
5. Have someone analyse each coin, with the ability to post code, changes and what things actually mean.

Add these 5 recommendations and what you say might actually be legitimate. You can't expect trust without trust yourself.

You need to improve your reading comprehension. There is too much supply so price of BTC has been going down. There are too many places to spend the BTC compared to the people willing to spend the BTC(demand). So when any of those places gets BTC they have to hurry up and get rid of it(what bitpay does). Thus creating a temporary market effect of companies selling under the average price which brings the average down. Why else is BTC down to like 560 right now? It isn't because so many people are using it.


Please save the talking down of people for someone who is dumber than you.

No...

As adoption by companies goes up the supply of places to use BTC goes up. As users of BTC go up the demand goes up. Right now we are in a massive company sweep, where more and more companies are accepting BTC. The "supply" of companies accepting BTC is far outweighing the "demand" for using said BTC.


In other words when looking at a rough supply/demand chart, US, the PEOPLE, are the demand. The companies are the supply. There is TOO MUCH supply coming in vs demand coming in, to make the price go up right now.

That is the most simplistic I can explain that. I vote to sticky this please so we can stop talking about it until tons of people are using btc. k thx.
