I have yet to see a single relation between what the federal reserve is doing and BTC. They're not related in any way. Each one goes its own way without looking at what the other one's doing.

I am my own nation, and you can be yours if you want.  Wish you all the best! But you won't go far without recognition. That's the problem with nations. If you come from a famous one, where the people are beautiful and wealthy, you're someone, but if you come from Yemen or Somalia, you're nobody. I wish I could travel all over the world without an ID, nor telling anyone where I'm from. |

Link? Picture? What did the woman looked like?
Maybe the black guy was gay? Maybe he didn't see her? Maybe he was drunk or stoned? More details would be much appreciated.
US police forces arrest white guys everyday.
If they had a picture of the guy who shot her, they wouldn't be looking for him. Also, it's true that the US Police forces arrest white guys every day, but none of the arrests occur because the guys are white. I'm talking of a picture of the victim, or the crime scene. Is this a troll or what? Hey, nobody's arrested because of color. There are plenty of colored police officers everywhere in the US. |

Oh, that's an easy one.
A sovereign nation is one place where the people made an oath of allegiance to their rulers. Same thing if all the people stand up proudly when they hear the national anthem.

I'm not really interested in this topic, but what can i said, that i like germany and want to visit it soon  You're right. Germany remains a great place to travel. It's a must-see for everyone who isn't European, just like France and Italy. Besides, even now with one million migrants, Germany remains a much safer and cleaner place than France. |

I'll get one as soon as I'll get a regular income in BTC. It would not make much sense right now. Considering that I've bought BTC with fiat currency, I don't see the point of a card which would reverse that change by spending my BTC and exchanging it to fiat in a shop.
It's a great tool for miners, though.

well I think Germany should organize how they take the refugees , for me as a Syrian I know how the refugees were going to europe
they first go to Lebanon then Fly to Turkey and then they risk their lives riding the sea
if the countries are organizing it by for example doing some interviews with the refugees in Lebanon or Turkey this would make it easier to spot the terrorist also people won't have to risk their lives , they should simply fly to the country that they are aiming for
Germany isn't racist. Far from it, just look at the billions it's spending to handle all the refugees it has already accepted. There wasn't any obligation to do so. Germany could have closed its borders, and most people would have accepted that. Claiming refugee status cannot be done at a travel agency in the Middle-East. Refugees are supposed to have faced a hard time in their native country, then going through a long, difficult and scary journey. Otherwise, they're just travelers like me. |

I remember that a few weeks ago, the mayor of London outlawed some advertisements on the subway because they were too suggestive. I believe muslims, all muslims, have a real problem with the female body.
I, for one, do not have any problem with the female body. I could handle women in mini-skirts everywhere. The beach was a great place where all humans were at the same level, the old and the young, the slim and the fat, all at the same level because of the very little clothing everybody's wearing. Please, keep it that way.

That already exists, but I hate those sites because nobody who uses them wants to pay for quality. The only ones working there are poor filipinos who are paid $1 per page.

What a bunch of sheep!
I thought bitcoiners were revolutionary, I was seriously wrong. But the case is clear to me. I'll keep on using BTC because I don't have much other choice. I don't have the right to open a bank account in the country I'm currently staying. Anyway, moving to another country is no big deal.
I would say, we are more Libertarian and open-minded, not revolutionary. ^smile^ Moving to another country is a big deal for people with strong family connections. Even if you can move, it is not to say that other family members can move too. They might not even be into Bitcoin, and has no incentive to move. Family comes first, then everything else. ^hmm^ I understand that. I left my country when I was 22. I was absolutely free back then, and it would be more difficult nowadays, but I have arranged my life to avoid most local obligations. I can work pretty much anywhere I want if there's a good Internet connection. That's the most important. I wish I could use BTC more, though. |

I'm not surprised. Those other 60 put aside, the people from Dubai grew up rich. They've never had to work to make a living, so plenty of them have been given official well-paid positions, but they don't know what work is. All the work in Dubai is done by foreigners.

We should invite a saudi woman to tell what she thinks.
I remember dining in Cannes a few years ago, when a group of 20 saudis arrived around midnight. They were all loud and flashing their money, with some women showing serious cleavage (as most women do in Cannes). It was obvious the women were having a good time, and enjoying the freedom they had in France.
More recently, in Geneva, I saw an arab walking with his woman fully veiled behind him, I can't say if she was having fun, but I don't think so.

Everybody knows that all terrorists (in the western world) are muslims, so they could just ban islam, close down all their places of worship, and deport all muslims to muslim countries where they could all live happily forever and the terror problem would be solved. No need to block encryption. Alas, it's way too late to think of that. One minister in France is muslim, and London's mayor is muslim, too. So the open society will gradually loose it openness.
Didn't know breivik was muslim. Or that the neo nazis that did these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosphorus_serial_murders and the cologne bombing were muslim. Or that the guys doing the pipe bomb attacks in northern ireland are muslim. Or that c18, white wolves and related groups are muslim. Etc. I meant in the present times. During the last decade in the western world, all terror has been coming from muslim. I know the past was different, but I do not live in the past. Also, by terror, I mean people dying. In France and Germany, there's been people painting pigs on the walls of a mosque but I don't see that as terror. Not sure you live in the present either: breivik - 2011 bosphorus serial murders - until 2006 northern ireland - current: http://www.belfastlive.co.uk/news/belfast-news/northern-ireland-top-eu-target-10315447c18 and related groups - probably current: http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/belfast-racists-threaten-to-cut-romanian-babys-throat-28484870.html And here are a few more: http://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/search/IncidentSummary.aspx?gtdid=201208050006http://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/search/IncidentSummary.aspx?gtdid=201507230080http://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/search/IncidentSummary.aspx?gtdid=201002180013http://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/search/IncidentSummary.aspx?gtdid=200907290025http://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/search/IncidentSummary.aspx?gtdid=201511270001You can say recent terror attacks in the west by jihadists have been the most deadly. That is probably true. But not the only type of terrorist attacks in the western world. And not even the most common type. According to europol for the year 2015 for example, out of over 200 terrorist attacks and attempted terrorist attacks in europe less than 20 were by jihadists. Can't you see this is just the latest excuse for them to do something they have been trying for a long time? Everyone is panicking about the muslims that are going to kill us all that they decided to try again. I guess we don't have the same definition of "terror" nor "in the present time". Let me guess: it is not terrorism if a muslim is not involved? Because I posted several examples of non-muslim terrorism and you ignored them all. All within a decade like you first asked. All classified by authorities as terrorism. At least 3 of those examples in the last 5 years like in your revised time frame. Yes. One example if you ignore the others.
There's no more terror in Ireland. It's a very quiet country by all standards.
There aren't many deaths from terror attacks in northern ireland. Not the same thing as no more terror attacks. Compare the deaths by irish nationalists in the past 5 years, to the deaths by muslims in the past 5 years. The ratio is probably around 1 to 100.
I already said as much in my last post. Yes it is true that recent jihadist terror attacks have been the most deadly. But my point was that not all terrorism in the west is done by muslims like you said. In fact it is not even the majority as far as I can tell. If nobody dies, there's no terror. More like if the terrorists are stopped it doesn't get attention. So you don't see it in the news. Terror attacks still go on regardless. Again, not the same thing as no terrorism. I haven't ignored any of your examples, I just didn't checked them all. What examples do you have in the last few years, with people dying?
2 of the examples I gave before were from the last year. Another from 4 years ago. All with deaths and injuries. More can be found if you bother to search. Regarding peace and safety, I'm ready to bet that Ireland is a much safer place than France, even without accounting terror attacks in France.
Don't know if that is true or not. But not the point. You were wrong in what you had said and i was providing proof you were. That is all. So what recent examples do you have? I haven't seen your proofs. I keep on saying that the death ratio between muslim terror acts and acts from other terrorists is 100 to 1, and if you can't prove otherwise, my point is valid. And please don't argue with terror acts which supposed to happen but have been stopped before they actually happen. There's no terror without terror. |

I have 3,000 hungarian forints in my wallet, right now. That's cash but I'm quite far from Hungary right now, and there's no place where I could exchange them to the local currency. So they're basically worthless, but as I'm planning to go back to Hungary in a few months, I'll keep them preciously. Same thing could happen to BTC. It could be worthless among the majority, but a minority will keep on believing in it, so it'll keep some value elsewhere, among other people.

There is doubt Robotics is the future but we cant let it overcome human labor. That would be disastrous
the people who own the robots don't care about throwing away human labor. it would be interesting to see what happens when there's no one left who can afford the products they're churning out. tech moves way faster than society can. we're in for an interesting near future. I'm not sure interesting is the right word. If robots can make pizzas and drones can deliver them, that won't leave much opportunity for the unskilled. I guess beautiful women will always have opportunities, but it's gonna be tough for plenty others. |

You know that's ridiculous. You are directly comparing "cold weather (cold water) gear" to what might be worn on the beach in the middle of summer.
If you don't believe me, try swimming in really cold water. Please do report back. And by the way, the burkini doesn't prevent the cold like the wetsuit does.
Still less ridiculous than thinking you have the right to tell anyone what they can or can't wear when it causes zero harm to anyone else. For a forum that's supposedly full of libertarians, there's quite a few authoritarian traditionalists about who clearly don't believe in any form of personal freedom whatsoever. Who gives a shit if it doesn't prevent the cold? It's their choice. Not yours. The more I read you the more I like you! Crazy to see those "btc is freedom" people asking for laws that forbid people to wear certain clothes... Correct, except that it's the muslims who want to ban women from wearing certain clothes. Muslims don't want women to wear bikinis, and that burkini thing is only the beginning. Soon, they will also ban women from wearing skirts, and that's already happening in several countries, just like in some neighborhoods of France. If someone wants to know what freedom looks like, a travel to a muslim country provides a quick lesson. |

Germany was and remains the best place in Europe to work, and make good money. There are more and more non Germans, you see them in train stations, and all public places. The government gives them an allowance so that they manage to live decently, but obviously, they all have plenty of time to kill. I can't say if they will end up being good citizens and taxpayers, but for many of them the chances are slim from what I've seen.
