Hi, Request for the giveaway threads to be assigned its own sub forum. Checking the Altcoin section right now, it looks like the alt section is only occupied by giveaways. It would be nice to have other topics showing up in the main altcoin section. Just a suggestion. |

Wow! funny.
RBI puts out a press release, few indian exchanges close their shutters. Bitcoin's overall network dont give a shit about it.
Sad to know India cant even make a mark in new technology, and the regulatory authority is acting like it the next big thing in money laundering weapon. and Permission is required. Meh......
It was Christmas so, Bah Humbug!!
satisfied much.

Don't Panic Stay Calm! Ok people dont panic, That was only a Press release to state what could be the dangers to the consumers on using bitcoin. When they said No regulatory approvals, registration or authorization is stated to have been obtained by the entities concerned for carrying on such activities. It is a typical post war thinking of the license Raj. Bitcoin Exchanges do not require licences to run, if that happens legitimate business will have to close down shutters and then the underground black market run by criminals will thrive. What would be done is, participation by every exchanges to provide KYC documents and provide active assistance to law enforcement agency to track down potential criminals. The last point made in the press release that makes every one step back is There have been several media reports of the usage of VCs, including Bitcoins, for illicit and illegal activities in several jurisdictions. The absence of information of counterparties in such peer-to-peer anonymous/ pseudonymous systems could subject the users to unintentional breaches of anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) laws. the problem is that law abiding citizens are the one backing down, the criminals can still get hold of bitcoin through many other channels. But, the main point i want to make here is that Bitcoins are not anonymous. every transaction is recorded forever. the easiest way to track down money laundering and criminal activities to by have exchanges follow Proper KYC and anti-money laundering protocols. Exchanges are the point where bitcoins can be protected from criminal elements. you remove exchanges then back alley transaction will start taking place. and if that happens then good luck tracking down the "Money Launderers" systems could subject the users to unintentional breaches of anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism This point implies to users of bitcoins, which is valid. For businesses as long as they have proper paperwork of their users then they are fine. Edit: The Reserve Bank has mentioned that it has been looking at the developments relating to certain electronic records claimed to be “Decentralised Digital Currency” or “Virtual Currency” (VCs), such as, Bitcoins, litecoins, bbqcoins, dogecoins etc., their usage or trading in the country and the various media reports in this regard. Bitcoin is not in any way a Virtual currency "VC", or a “Decentralised Digital Currency”, Damit it is a Cryptocurrency.dogecoins Are you kidding me?  ? p.s - INRBTC as long as you are not dealing with INR directly you are ok to run. |

Hi,
I am going to start helping out with meetups in various cities and towns in India. Will help guide people to do the meetups and also try to get video conferencing by bitcoin experts in places where people are just starting out with bitcoins.
Will try to organize atleast one new meetup every month. In a new city or town.
An IRC meetup will also start online for every one to join in, this may be once in a week or twice in a week. (or if you like it hang out there 24/7, its up to you)
Will start the first announcement of the national Meetup on 31st December. with new location and venue.
Meetup will cover mostly the technical aspect of Bitcoin, its network the bitcoin code, mining, Information security, and Opensource Technology.
investment and speculation talk can be better kept on the IRC as that platform provides better information.
If you want to start a meetup, and dont know where to start with, or you yourself is a noob, and require experienced bitcoiners to guide you then just pm me i will get that arranged and we can all participate in it.

Guys please beware of scammers that are after your money. Bitcoin has a lot of luster that sometimes blinds you. People will play on a persons greed and then start scamming you.
Rules to follow:-
-If it sounds to good to be true, then its most probably a scam/ ponzi scheme.
-Never trust some one just because you had a few trades gone smoothly before, they will usually try to gain your trust and then hit you when you least expect it.
-Make sure all your trades are done in public as records can be verified.
-Separate your trading email from your personal emails.
-Dont click on any links sent to you on a trading email.
-Be very aware when dealing with people over the phone, there have been attempts to get personal details through social engineering.
-And always use an Escrow. Benson has been doing a great job with that so use him for your escrow.
DON'T INVEST MORE MONEY THAN YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOOSE.
I got a real strange call yesterday for bitcoin investment sounded shady.
