Uk banks have their watchful eyes glancing over accounts, Barclays have raised eyebrows with a few of my friends accounts, has required them having to chat with bank managers to explain they were only selling 'vouchers'
I think they would have no hesitation to bring the hammer down.
I dont believe so. I think Bitcoin will eventually level from another 6months to a year of volitility. Regulation and hostile attacks on the credibility of the coin will derail its rise to the $1000 mark. If, and a big if, it manages to push through these two barriers, then I would say it will get close, but no cigar...
Saaaafety!! I experienced a password compromise just recently and thus have had to open new accounts. Annoying!!! But better than compromising my goodies
This sort of behaviour is shaping up to shadow the selling of 'established & trusted' profiles down the road... undermining everything the coin community stands for.
This whole ecosystem of Alt-coins is based on Trust. The ethos and the backbone of its success rely on the degree of trust from the users and the promotors. Whether that is people trading coins, or just the adopters of coins in mainstream society. Trust will keep the coins rolling.... so yeah, I am all about it. Just a pain in the backside having to start a profile from scratch hahaha
