1  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin reach $ 91,000 by 2020? on: April 11, 2018, 06:44:12 PM
market capitalization is more than 110 billion dollars, and take it except as a mine, there is nowhere else, and it is becoming more and more complicated every day (hence the rapid growth of the crypto currency) if its rising cost did not cover the cost of electricity for computing processes, it is already would have collapsed. So he collapses then when the "farming minings" can not pay back themselves. With this dynamic, it is approximately 2020
2  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Will bitcoin disappear in the future? on: April 11, 2018, 06:32:29 PM
Analyst Saxo Bank Kay van Petersen believes that in the next ten years, each bitcoin unit will cost $ 100,000. It was van Petersen who correctly predicted the achievement of a crypto-currency mark in 2000 dollars in 2017. In May, discussing the long-term future of the currency, he said that "the crypto-currencies will not disappear anywhere."
Others who justified the future price for bitcoin were Vinces Casares, CEO of the crypto-money purse Xapo and a member of the board of directors of PayPal. At the conference Consensus 2017, held in May in New York, he predicted that the cost of bitcoin would reach $ 1 million in 10 years.
These are just a few of the most varied examples of the direction of the cost of bitcoin in the next decade. Given the pace of its growth, anything is possible. The fact that the digital currency is widely used around the world as a trading asset or a means of payment proves its usability and growing predominance. For those wishing to advance in the financial world, bitcoin is a suitable solution. It is also a solution for those who live in countries with weak economies. It will continue to grow while the demand for it continues. And with the growth in its value, the same will be the forecasts for the future price.

The social network Facebook has banned all advertising of crypto-currencies and the primary placement of tokens (ICO).
The new rules, according to the official Facebook blog, prohibit advertising of financial products and services, "which are often associated with misleading or deceptive promotion methods."
The ban on advertising crypto and ICO extends to Instagram, as well as the network Audience Network, which places advertisements in third-party applications.
Facebook will identify and remove such advertisements and ask users to report cases of violation of the new rules.
4  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin cannot be a global currency on: April 11, 2018, 06:14:17 PM
The Financial Times entered into a discussion with Jack Dorsey.
Recently Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter and a crypto-enthusiast, said that Bitcoin could become a global crypto currency in the next 10 years.
The Financial Times refutes Dorsey's optimism. First, the emission of crypto currency is limited, therefore Bitcoin will cost prohibitively expensive to become a global crypto currency, presumably, by 2028 its value will reach about $ 10 million.
Secondly, in the future, the operating costs for Bitcoin mining will be such that $ 15 million will be spent on generating bolkas. Since each block contains about 1500 transactions, each transaction will cost about $ 10,400. With an average price of 11 cents per kilowatt-hour, the energy consumption per transaction will be about 101,114 kWh.

The Central Bank of Russia did not recognize the crypto currency as a means of payment, However, the centro bank does not deny the possibility of creating its own crypto currency.
The prohibition of bitcoins in Russia is an alleged legislative and technical ban on the use in the territory of the Russian Federation of Bitcoin crypto-currencies.
The first steps were taken in January 2014 in the form of a statement by the Central Bank of Russia, as well as the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation.
However, so far no real legislative measures have been taken to ban bitcoin in Russia, except for the bill on the prohibition of bitcoins. There were statements at the level of Deputy Minister of Finance that bitcoin not only will not be banned, but may even be legalized.
Nevertheless, according to the decision of the courts, well-known websites on Bitcoin and the exchange of crypto-currencies were blocked, part of the decisions were canceled by a higher court. The RF Ministry of Finance sees in the bitcoin and the trade in crypto currency the signs of a financial pyramid.

Here's the coolest ico
Merculet is a protocol that allows manufacturers and consumers to connect through the creation of a decentralized Attention Value Network (their own methodology based on user attention).
The company's activities will be built by means of the following components:
1. The UAV (User Attention Value) - the user's attention is the basis of the evaluation system and is closely related to the reward system in the network.
2. UATs (User Attention Tokens) - tokens intended for each entrepreneur (company). This is the anchor of the system. Each token will have its own rank and weight in the network, but all of them will be interconnected with each other, and may vary between companies (entrepreneurs).
3. Open Content Platform - using tokens, users will evaluate and influence each project.
The overall goal of Merculet is to create a platform where, along with the development of enterprises (entrepreneurs), the attention of users and end users would be estimated by real financial value, which would help enterprises to receive feedback and build the product that is needed by society (through the system of User Attention Value ).
Whitepapper - describes in detail the operation of the system. The authors pointed out that this is only a preliminary version of the whitepapper in order to familiarize the reader with the project. Everything is described in detail, but without technical details and formulas. RoadMap is detailed in every quarter until mid-2019

8  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who controls the Bitcoin system? on: April 07, 2018, 06:22:26 PM
Bitcoin's digital currency is known for being beyond the control of developers, any companies, or government institutions. Thanks to this feature, Bitcoin became famous. Of course, this is not the only factor that influenced the active growth of the market capitalization of the digital currency, but the ability to send and receive money transfers bypassing the banking sector played an important role in the development of Bitcoin as a reliable payment instrument.
By the way, most crypto-currencies are also beyond the control of even their creators. However, this does not mean that the P2P payment system is absolutely uncontrolled, there must be tools that regulate the basic processes of network interaction with the participants.
There is an opinion that the developers of the company Bitcoin Foundation, which is currently the official provider Bitcoin-network, have more opportunities to influence the system. In fact, it is nothing more than a delusion. There are only two groups of users who can indirectly control the Bitcoin system:
• Ordinary Internet users who work with digital money.
• Miners engaged in the production of Bitcoins.
No one else can affect the Bitcoin system in any way. Developers act as providers.
9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Target Market of Bitcoin on: April 07, 2018, 12:10:45 PM
Japan's new leader Bitcoin market
Regardless of all this, many experts expressed optimism towards Bitcoin. Some analysts, including Max Kaiser (head of RT's Keiser Repor) confirmed their short-term target price for Bitcoin. More importantly, Kaiser explained that the Japanese market is likely to overtake China in the coming months, as China continues to isolate itself from the global Bitcoin industry. Kaiser was accurate with his vision of the short-term Bitcoin trend. Most traders from China have already switched to the Japanese market Bitcoin exchanges, as predicted by Kaiser.
Today, Japan officially became the world's largest Bitcoin stock market, surpassing the United States by a staggering 50.8% stake in Bitcoin's global exchange market. At the same time, the volume of trading on the Chinese exchange market Bitcoin fell from 15 percent to 6.5 percent, despite the continuing operations of OKCoin and Huobi.
10  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: why the facebook, google are banning cryptocurrency? on: April 07, 2018, 12:00:56 PM
Google announced that it will prohibit advertising of crypto currency on all its platforms. The company said that it is updating its advertising policy related to financial services. According to Google, the content they want to ban includes ICO, wallets and advice on trading.
In its news the company made it clear that, although the Crypto currency can be an adequate asset for consumers in the future, now they see evidence that the market has hurt many people. As a result, in order to protect its users, it officially began to prohibit advertising related to the crypto-currency industry as a whole. In a statement, Scott Spencer, director of advertising at Google, told CNBC:
"We do not have a crystal ball to know what the future is for crypto currencies, but we have seen how some crypto currencies have been brought to consumers. This is the very area to which you should promote with extreme caution. "
11  Economy / Economics / Re: Why well-distinguished economists are negative on bitcoin on: April 07, 2018, 11:53:50 AM
Paul Krugman, who won the 2008 Nobel Prize in Economics, already ridiculed bitcoin several times. In his first mention of the crypto currency, Krugman called bitkoyn an evil for the economy.
"I have to say that I still doubt if bitkoyn can work at all."
Three years later, bitkoyn continues to work and process approximately 225,000 operations per day.
In 2014, Krugman continued to call bitcoin as a matter of fact a scam. In 2015, Krugman seemed to lack the basic understanding of bitcoin when he was asked about it on The Genius of Economics.
"At the moment, bitkoyn does not look good," he said.
Then one bitkoyn was traded at the level of $ 279.63. Since then, the price has more than doubled, and now it is above $ 600. In fact, bitokoyn reached its current state less than two months before Krugman's statement. Of course, Krugman's analysis was not so blatant or specific as a specialist at the University of Boston, Mark T. Williams, who shamefully predicted the collapse of the bitcoin price to $ 10 by mid-2014.
I must say, it is difficult to find any true predictions made by Krugman about bitkoyne up to this point.
12  Economy / Economics / Re: Central of the Philippines Recognizes Bitcoin on: April 07, 2018, 11:44:54 AM
With risks of using crypto currency you can cope, otherwise - it's a regular instrument of the money market and the object of investment. This opinion was expressed by the deputy head of the Central Bank of the Philippines Melchor Plabasan in an interview with the local news television channel ABS-CBN. In this he stressed that the central bank considers bitcoin as a payment and settlement instrument. Also, a representative of the financial regulator warned about the risks of using crypto currency for accumulation and investment, which are caused by high volatility of the exchange rate.
It should be noted that the monthly volume of crypto-currency transactions in the Philippines reached $ 6 million.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Best countries for an ICO on: April 04, 2018, 06:24:02 PM
The best countries were those with the highest number of successful ICO cases. ICO Producer experts used the data of the Coinschedule site - they sorted ICO by the total number of investments and selected the first hundred projects from the list. Then they contacted their developers and asked in which countries they registered the ICO. Of the one hundred projects, 47 could not respond to the request. Thus, the study was conducted on the basis of data from 53 successful ICOs, which attracted more than $ 10 million.

14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will ICO die in 2018? on: April 04, 2018, 06:15:44 PM
Although November of 2017 was a record year for the amount of funds raised during the ICO ($ 743 million), most of the funding went to just a few projects. A huge number of primary placements on the market made it difficult to promote promising start-ups compared to previous quarters. As a result, the average indicators slightly deteriorated, and the number of ICOs has increased by about 50% since October. Probably, the trend will continue in the first quarter of 2018 - in general, the situation on the market will remain complicated due to the overabundance of ICO. Also, we can witness the increased volatility of bitcoin, typical for the beginning of the year. It is caused by various factors. One of them is the habit of investors from China to close positions before the Chinese New Year.
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Advantage of ETHEREUM on: April 04, 2018, 05:59:42 PM
Despite the fact that most are mostly familiar with Bitcoin, Ethereum also won its market share. It should be noted that the main difference between the two crypto currency is the technology used by Ethereum and Bitcoin.
The system difference is determined by the fact that Ethereum data processing is much faster than Bitcoin, because Ethereum automatically applies to the terms and conditions of the contract after it has entered into force.
While many might think that Ethereum may be inferior to Bitcoin because its price is lower, this crypto currency, in fact, may be of interest to potential investors looking for other investment opportunities other than Bitkoyn. A lower price may attract more investors, since there is a greater potential for growth. The only drawback is that Ethereum is not as well known as Bitcoin. In this respect Bitcoin is safer than Ethereum.

Here's a promising ico:
Merculet creates the User Attention Value (UAV) evaluation system to scientifically measure the value of a user’s attention. An entrepreneur can simply access the UAV system, which can seamlessly integrate with traditional reward-point systems, through a set of open protocols.
Merculet provides a full solution to help entrepreneurs issue UATs (User Attention Tokens), which is the designated tokens for each entrepreneur. The UAT will be anchoring the basic MVP token with different rates, enabling the synergy and the value exchange between entrepreneurs.
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Russia is about to be friends with cryptocurrency! on: April 01, 2018, 03:33:16 PM
The Russian Ministry of Finance wants to legalize: allow individual operations, setting restrictions and explicitly prohibiting others. Individuals and legal entities can create, store and exchange crypto currency, buy and sell it for ordinary money. And we are talking about a variety of crypto-currencies: those that are mined as bitcoins, and those where the "miners" will be replaced by "validators", as in the case with the expected crypto currency from the creators of the Telegram messenger.

Ledger Wallet is a special case of an HD-purse that stores private keys and signs transactions on a separate, secure device. Those. no programs, no servers have access to the keys themselves, they just give the original data and get the result with permission of the one who presses the hardware confirmation button - there is no software way from the computer to unblock the wallet or confirm the transaction (conspiracy theories about bookmarks in the wallet we leave aside).

One of the politicians warned his colleagues on the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) against excessive hype for crypto-currencies. In his opinion, since the fate of virtual money is not yet known, it is not worth using them in the national economy. But, it seems, the prime minister was late. Belarus has already become the first country in the world to legalize crypto-currencies at the state level, while Kyrgyzstan intends to introduce bitcoins into the system of state procurement.
