there is one huge missing point in every post in this topic about deep web, and that is it doesn't exist any form of indexes like search engine and robot to trace all the websites and list to a search engine.
Nohting can be searched in the deep web unless you have the web address (.onion), from the blockchain point of view, you can see the transaction but you can't really connect it to an illegal transaction.

wouldn't be that hard if you consider Elon Musk sent a freaking Tesla over Mars (and above).. somebody should have contacted him to put in the trunk of the car a paper wallet

I've just finished to read this article and i think this is huge and can be the exception who will start (or can start) a revolution in Europe.
In the article the key message: "Germany will regard bitcoin as the equivalent to legal tender for tax purposes when used as a means of payment, according to a new document."

What do you think guys?

BTC is the reference for all the crypto coins around, might not be the best or the fastest coin but as first, other coins are based on the BTC idea, project and concept.
There will be a coin who will surpass BTC? definitely it can happen.

Hello Luptin,
i have been in hospital for more than one month without the access (and honestly, the will) to post to the forum.
I hope you will keep me in the list as now, i'm back at home and can post again like before.

I apologize for this once again.
Paolo

same, i'm holding as usual but sadly i did not have money to invest and this is bad.
Price will recovery as always and with the recent dips many people got big gains just by selling high and buying low converting into alts too.

it will raise again but slower and steadily compared to last quarter of 2017, there are too many FUDS and bad news around that investors are not very keen to do daily trading in this moment.
Definitely we will see a raise of the price by the end of the year, how much? nobody knows, we all expect to bounce back to 30K by the end of 2018.

ye, this was expected to bounce back, it was just a matter of time.
Reading the forum with FUD/shitposter about the BTC price made me laugh every time, keep holding, buy when possible and enjoy the ride!

if it was me, i would keep and hold BTC, ETH and LTC because in the last year or so these are the most stable and supported coins.
There are many others coins which might worth to invest and hold, but i would stay in the safe zone with these 3.

waiting for the price to drop a bit more then for sure i'll keep buy because prices like this are hard to see nowadays.
Not scared about this drop or correction, i still believe in this project besides the price of the market.

i was skeptical when i have heard the news about BTC being listed in the stock market because giving such a big focus to crypto is not always a good news.
Whales and big investors now are able, in a easier way than before, to manipulate the price and besides that, country like China doesn't want to have anything to share with BTC, hence the 100% ban.
BTC will rebounce back? yes, problably or might not recover for years from now, nobody knows but, call me stupid, BTC listed in the major stock market wasn't a good move in my opinion.

oh freightjoe is back at full force!
welcome back mate, i was missing your topics about BTC apocalypse!
There are 2 ways of considering crypto world: the technology behind and the revolution is causing in the real world and the money you can make with it.
If you are just an investor blindly buying and selling (and panic selling) this is not the world for you, did you gain money? good for you, have you lost something? too bad, you should have studied a bit more before investing to lose.

there was a topic here with loads of reply, a lot of discussion going on, calculation and many theory.
It was amazing to read all the answers and i was amazed this was such an hard puzzle who really took 3 years to be solved.
Prop to them!

this is a sad story but nothing, sadly, news in this world.
Crypto are just another form of investment and losing all your money can take you to the edge and take this stupid decision.
Many people are killing themselves after they lost their job and can't find a new one, can't afford meals for their family or lose their houses.
Crypto are affected by this, everything who has a real value can affect your life in a good or bad way.

this is the same exact post in a different topic:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2885129.msg29648547#msg29648547

either a bad post farming or an alt account of this guy..
No value added on this topic and useless information in his post.

weak hands, newbies in this world are struggling to understand this market.
If you just read around, check graphics and the history you will see that BTC has always been like this, roller coasting all around, price is subject to change every minute and this is the way it should be for now.
In this world you should be more practical than emotional because when we are talking about money emotions never helps to take the right decision.
Unless you are a daily trader, just hold and stop checking the BTC price every 10 minutes, clear your mind and start to check it every week or month, don't be stupid to jump off the train at 7/6/5k because when the price will get back you will definitely regret it.

this is a good news in this moment of FUDS all around the world.
Government are searching for a way to regulate this crypto world (and for taxes) and this could be a good move, we will see how this will evolve because Russia is a one-of-a-kind country.

everything's possible in this world, like somebody already said, this downtrend can stop overnight and raise the all time high in a matter of days.
Predicting what could happen in the incoming months (but even days) is not really possible, it's a crazy world and is not easy at all to understand the movement of capitals.

especially during this prolonged black friday, i'm buying and then convert into alts, because in this moment it's a good move.
Still believing BTC will bounce back to an higher price, not panicing but i have to admit this dip is somehow scary.

I work in IBM too and this analogy is missing the key point: Mainframes!
IBM is the only vendor in the world to produce a product like that, and is not hidden to anyone, that is the chicken with golden eggs of IBM: monopoly on something certain kind of companies (like banks) must have for the bank accounts management.
Lenovo is only the hardware part (servers and clients) sold to a chinese company, the other services are well working and healthy.
