What's more safe? Sticking with the status quo. The problem is if you stick with it for too long. Then the new status quo has changed and you're investing in old school investments that will never go anywhere close to as far as cryptocurrency.

You've just got to go for it. You waited too long already!

He thinks it's going to be insurable? Ok if I'm an insurance company,im not insuring some tool who keeps 100k on an exchange because... He's a tool. How do you insure someone who is smart with their bitcoins though? Have a survey? It just seems like it's so easy to fake the right answers but be so naive with your security that it's impossible to quantify the amount you would need to pay vs. The amount that's being insured. That said, there's companies making money off of pet insurance so...

I think this guy is way too optimistic about how much you can actually regulate an unregulated currency. It baffles the mind.

Oh and his dumbed down version of a multisig bitcoin wallet stamped on a piece of gold, pure genius. No one has ever thought of that. /s.

I'd much rather have my private keys stamped on something with a higher melting point. Good old tungsten. The price is right and not even a burning house can't melt it.

Usually the obvious answer is the right one.

BUY and HODL. If you ever sell you just cost yourself future money. Way to go.

Who's this Roger Ver guy Roll Eyes

You know, the next high-profile scammer to rage-quit because he can't force everyone into his scam-coin. Smiley

Lol... I heard that this guy owns around $1 billion worth of BTC, and yet he is supporting the Bitcoin Cash altcoin. I don't understand. Why he is trying to destroy BTC, while holding so many coins?

Owned* and definitely not a billion worth. Assuming he wasn't bsing, he claimed to have sold all of his bitcoins. I doubt anyone believes that though.

1/2 = 0.5

Then the market will make one of both more expensive

Not true at all. No exchange is going to list them as equal. More like 95/5 or 99.9/0.01. That's just for the people who will gamble and try out the altcoin.
8  Economy / Economics / Re: How to TAX Bitcoin. An easy way ! on: June 17, 2017, 11:43:47 PM
What kind of massive supercomputer would be needed to constantly watch everyone's menial spending? Just charge sales tax. It's 100% easier. If people are ripping off the govt then they'll just increase the sales tax.
9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BItcoin needs to die on: June 15, 2017, 05:54:11 PM
If after 9 years you still don't know what bitcoins are for, you're doing it wrong. Enough said.

I'd be more than happy to help you test your bitcoin mixer. I have sent you a PM and look forward to your response.
11  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin treated as money in Australia from 1. july on: May 13, 2017, 06:02:39 PM
Holy crap this is amazing. They explicitly said they won't be taxing bitcoins. What a great opportunity for everyone in Australia.
12  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Why it took so long for this to go through? on: April 29, 2017, 02:39:24 AM
50 Satoshis/Byte is about a quarter of what you would have needed if you wanted your transaction to confirm within a few blocks. Always check before you send the transaction.

uhm, could you unblock my IP?
I want to test this a bit more. I couldn't make sure it worked because my IP was blacklisted for running a tampered client.

Which one of the ... let me see ... 7 IPs blocked in the past 30 minutes is it?

And - are you sure you wouldn't want to exchange some experience with user fronti first?

Reads to me like this Rico dude is a real Looney Tune ...


"The ONLY backdoor I see is the one I'm gonna use to fuck you in the ass."

 Shocked wow. Personally I believe there are far better uses to computer power and time than this petty theft. It's interesting in a purely scientific way, but I won't be involved.
14  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: BTC.com Transaction Accelerator on: March 30, 2017, 07:24:10 PM
Aha, another great alternative. Personally I've just been using altcoins and convincing others to use said altcoins but this is an option if I'd rather stick either the tried and true bitcoin transaction I wanted to do right from the beggining.
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why you should buy bitcoins NOW on: March 26, 2017, 03:23:39 PM
Just keep your bitcoins in your personal wallet so that no one could steal this opportunity from you

That's the absolute best advice. Own your own private keys. If someone else knows your privately key ie. a web wallet, you do not own any bitcoins. Buy some bitcoins and store them in a wallet you created securely. Good advice.
16  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is getting out? on: March 22, 2017, 06:03:20 PM
Who else is cashing in before the fork wipes out Bitcoin?  I don't have much but will quit while I'm ahead.   Wink

I don't think you understand what a fork is. Let me draw you a diagram.

Y

Incase that didn't get through to you, you'll own just as many bitcoins as you did before. You'll just own two different kinds of bitcoins. If the price drops then you've lost brain dead sheep to the slaughter. It's not a big deal.
17  Economy / Speculation / Re: Solid X ETF on: March 11, 2017, 06:48:19 PM
They won't approve the ETF because bitcoins can't be regulated so people need to get over the idea of having an ETF that's based on bitcoin prices. Maybe if part of someone's company was invested in bitcoins there would be a chance of that happening but basing a fund solely off of the price of bitcoins can't happen.
18  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin prices go to the moon? on: March 02, 2017, 02:46:06 PM
BTC price will be around 800 - 1200 USD this year, high price means that BTC mining is more profitable. So it is also the right time to sale some spare BTC.

What is "spare BTC"? I think there is no such thing. All the fractions of BTC we have are not spare for us. We love then and we cherish them. Smiley
No one wants to sell them unless we are in a desperate need of fiat money.

This. I was looking to sell some bitcoins a few weeks ago but now I just can't let them go. I'm not desperate so I definitely don't want to sell at such an amazing high.
19  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: February 11, 2017, 05:46:16 PM
I tried to recoup 0.05BTC that I lost. I ended up losing 0.07 more on bitcoin. That was pretty much all the bitcoins I had so I've never gambled since.
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: the existence of possible bank will be replaced by bitcoin? on: January 11, 2017, 01:41:06 AM
Bitcoin? No. But some virtual currency will definitely be taking over in the distant future. My guess would be 25-40 years from now cash will only be used by criminals.
