Not sure, I read that they are still seeking partners for the distributed ledger platform, like companies willing to sell stocks over the platform.
Did they confirm they are actually scheduling an ICO?

..and other conclusion: Bitcoin is alive and kicking big time in China, nothing to worry about

Indeed, Federer pulled out of Mirka Paris Bercy, to be at 100% for the World Tour Finals.
This last Masters 1000 looks not good on paper, as usual many players pulled out, but this year more than usual, last one to withdraw was Monfils.

Nadal vs Chung in Round 2, interesting  I like the Korean player, played some great matches this year (the one against Nishikori especially was a cracker).

By the way, Nadal is 1460 pts ahead of Federer, so yeah YE1 is granted for him. Difference being, Federer did not play one single tournament on clay, and that eventually hurt his chances to become #1.

Still I am a Rafa fan so can't complain, the spankings from Fed this year have been hard enough. 

The week does not end on Sunday 11:59pm, this campaign started on a Monday at approximately 2:00pm GMT-0, you can see the exact time on the Google sheet next to your name. For example, for me, the week starts on Monday  01:37:05 PM, this is the time of the first post you made when you applied for the campaign.
Therefore, the week is not over yet, still a few hours left.

Bitcoin rises and Litecoin does not, simply because a lot of people who buy Bitcoin have no knowledge at all in cryptocurrencies and therefore go for the big name, the safe name, hoping for a quick profit.
Litecoin buyers have a different profile, same can be said about other altcoins, but to me it looks like Litecoin is getting old and techies actually prefer to look for fresh altcoins like XRP, OKCASH which are more volatile.

Hi. I have 1 account + Skrill verified (selfie too), it is an Irish account. Are you interested?
It is never been used, what price are you willing to pay?
Send me a private message please.
Cheers.

PS: I just sent you a private message, please check your inbox.

Hi chesatochi. I personally like Protex, BitClave, but other names you should look into: Gladius, Enjincoin...
You may want to read this :topic: too.

Hi Atomise. Would be nice if you could elaborate a little bit on the reasons why you think this way about bitconnect.
How to be sure it will or won't turn out to be another Madoff like scam?
I'm not sure how much time and money was dedicated to create the platform...give us more info please.  

Hi. Thanks for posting.
I can see where he is coming from. I do believe Bitcoin price will keep rising but no way we get +200% next year.
We'll have to get used to slower rises in the future, you can't hope for a return of *3 or *4 every year.
That being said, I am confident we need to hold, but expect to be more patient from 2018 and forward. The hype is a bit over the top lately, and not very healthy.
My 2 satoshis of course 

Autrement dit le prix moyen du BTC ces 2 dernieres semaines puisque de ce que j'ai vu le prix fluctue entre 5400 et 6100 grosso modo. Pourquoi parles tu de "saut" ?

Interesting.
So Singapore, which is officially a dictatorship (please correct me if I am wrong), is Bitcoin friendly while in my home country France, which is technically democratic, stories like this happen.
Again, it does not even surprise me the least and says a lot about France, sadly.
Good to read this about Singapore anyway 

*I have to bump the thread*

Apparently, there is a legal void regarding cryptos in France. Which means in a case like this one, banks are free to kick out their customers without having to justify it. Or they would say: we combat money laundering and this is a suspicious case. But in the story above, the guy apparently provided all proofs required by bank regarding his investments into cryptos. And they still decided to close his account.
This does not sound good at all for cryptos users located in France. I would be him, I would just move to Malta and enjoy the climate and life from there.  

Hi folks,

first of all, to admins and mods, I am not sure in which section of the forum this story belongs, but I believe it is important to share it. If this topic belongs to a different selection, I apologize and please you to move it.
This story is told by lunokhod2 on reddit. There is the same post in the French section on this forum but I thought the English version would get more reads, so here it is.

Basically, the guy gets his bank account closed by BPN Parisbas after a big transaction (pretty sure it is in France). He did not say the amount but I am assuming 6 figures would cause such decision.

Discuss.

Good point, if world wide governments work hard to track Bitcoin transactions, tax them and make sure to know who is behind everything, all people who were holding Bitcoin for anonymity purpose may switch to other options. Bitcoin may lose its attractiveness which should benefit to altcoins, so obviously the first winner in such a scenario would be Ethereum.
Hope this does not happen but this is within the realms of possibilities.

Hi.
I think ETH price is still very dependent on how BTC price moves and to be honest I believe they are kind of competitors. The reason why I see a good future for ETH is that governments are working more and more to control BTC, which has became centralized, while ETH remains decentralized.
If one day, BTC loses its initial attractive qualities (mainly the anonymity), I believe a lot of people could go for ETH instead, with an obvious effect on the price.
But don't forget Bitcoin is still the front runner and it is gonna last for a while I think. People investing into ETH should be very patient.
You also make a good point about ICOs funding, this can't last forever, a lot of money is made on "air" these days. I just hope this money would go to Bitcoin or Ether instead 

All this discussion is a bit complicated for me, but anyway thanks for the help.
Yesterday I just remembered I had a little money at nitrogensports and decided to withdraw to an old address to see, and it worked perfectly fine , with the funds arriving directly to my wallet.

So, problem solved!

Thanks for the help guys.

For all them it is all about reputation and security. This is what most people will value when looking for an exchange market.
Too many scams in the past...

Hi FedAsker, related to your original queston, you should find this read interesting, I recommend you have a look.
Basically, an analyst named Van-Petersen believes that one day cryptos could equal 10% of the average daily volumes of global fiat currency, and you can read about his prediction on Bitcoin price if this scenario comes true, $100k, which sounds a bit crazy but in the long term who knows...

But I am afraid that's the way some people think.
A lot of investors, traders, are waiting for more regulations, the novices will always be scared to be scammed as it has happened many times in the past.
Now you see Bittrex and the likes asking for KYC, this is only the beginning IMO.
I am just afraid that one day Bitcoin loses its value simply because all its initial qualities that attracted many people are soon gone. Will the demand stay the same(or better, increase) if we are not anonymous anymore?

Let' see then. I am not that convinced investors are that interested into Bitcoin Gold, maybe they just anticipate good things after Segwit in November.
Still I agree that a correction is expected, and it is already happening actually:
 price moved from 6k1 to 5k6, which was not too surprising.
