In traditional FIAT currencies your money or time if you will is not controlled by you. Financial policies are not controlled by you. At any time the rules of the game can change, and have changed. Just recently we have observed this with the run-away printing of USD.

Microsoft did great by buying up technologies they needed. Justin knows how the world works and is simply playing the game the right way. Meeting with the likes of Buffet and Wozniak he's trying to position TRON to be the go to social platform for internet 3.0. The best thing about buying or partnering with existing companies is their user base.

I know you guys think that crypto should be decentralized and governed by the users of the systems, I do too, when I'm dreaming about the perfect future. But that will NEVER happen with the tight controls the PTB have over our financial systems.

BAT had an ICO, it has a centralized team behind it. Sure its good and its doing good things but you cant compare Doge to some startup.

DOGE is a community coin, it started with mining and has never had an ICO. Its more like Bitcoin and Litecoin than anything else. No one controls it. This is what crypto was intended to be from the beginning.

Hi Bonggers! long time since I've visited this thread.

So I try the exchange and get an error site down cloudfare taking a crap. Anyone else?

It's called shaking out the weak hands..

Just curious, did any of you read the whitepaper? If you did then why invest? It seems poorly written and very vague.

What concerns me is the ICO rating sites have this thing a really good rating when it should have been warning signs. I guess when the gold rush fever sets in people just dismiss red flags.

I hope you guys get your money back.

I agree, it will affect healthcare. But the drug market is a multi billion dollar market. Tax the drugs sold and use that money to help the addicts. If the government made and sold the drugs themselves then they would reap all of the profit.

As for Ross, I did a bit of research on his trial. Some people say it was unfair, it seems the trial was fair but the investigation was unfair. So what when you have bitcoin wallets that point to silk road there isn't really much one can say in defense of that.

Here is a paragraph from that article.
"The only 11th hour surprise to the defense involved tracking the Bitcoins. Apparently nobody realized that Bitcoins were trivial to trace. After the defense’s opening, the prosecution scrambled to analyze the wallet.dat files, not only discovering a huge amount of Bitcoins directly from Silk Road to Ulbricht (apparently Ulbricht’s wallets were also the Silk Road “cold” storage) but even sourcing the “hitman” payments as coming from Ulbricht’s wallet!"

I'm against prohibition. People should be able to put what they want into their own bodies. I actually think that prohibition should be illegal. I realize this will make the current drug problem worse, people squatting or just doing drugs in the street would be arrested and put into education camps. We could get the money for something like that by selling these drugs to the public.

As for Ross, well Ross knew the consequences of running a public drug distribution network. He got caught and now his life is over. So what I have no remorse for him whatsoever and why should I? Was the trial fair? Who gives a shit, he knew what the laws were and what would happen to him if he did get caught.

Haha! that was pretty funny, you do realize that the actors changed part way through the commercial right? The added part was done great, its hard to tell they switched actors. I can see why someone would do this, the way the bother and sister looked at each other in the original commercial was ... pretty creepy... maybe the actors were sleeping with one another?

With the right genetics and a little help from Monsanto I'm sure we can get cannabis to grow in that environment. I wonder if there is a market for space weed?

That's nice, it looks like he loves his kids to me. See his daughter holding his hands, that's sweet. They stop being sweet around 15 and become little monsters. I sure do miss the younger years of my kids when daddy was everything.

Everything exists because the opposite is not existing or nothing. Which is completely alien and unknown to us things that do exist. For instance, life struggles to survive because death is the end of consciousness, or the nothing. Reality is probably the same way, things exist because not existing just sucks. Who or what would want nothing over something? So there you have it.

If this is real then they are not going to pay, if they did then whats to stop the hackers from releasing the materials anyways?

Also that twitter account is gone now.

LOL!

People like you and Doktor Judy Woods are the reason conspiracies are laughed at..

Sure, they weakened the steel with phasers lol 

All they needed was thermite, thats what we found in the debris. Why go on about bullshit that can't be proven to even exist? Dr. Woods is a paid agent, she's spreading disinformation and so are you.

You can forget the ETF that may never happen. If it does it's because there are plenty of exchanges like Baakt that monitor manipulation. Our best bet is institutional exchanges popping up that are similar to Baakt.

The SEC stated that they need to be sure the markets are not manipulated. If this can ever happen then it will only happen when there are more exchanges like Baakt that are run by large institutions. We may not see an ETF for years. However, do not fret, Baakt and like exchanges that hopefully will pop up in the US and other developed nations will bring BTC prices up.

Currently all ISO purchases are converted to Vezt for the actual purchase. This is done with a dev pool of Vezt for the time being.

The roadmap states that they will integrate exchanges with Vezt ISO purchases in the future. Which will put buy pressure on the token. There is a reason to accumulate some.

This has to happen in order for their token to remain a utility token, otherwise it will be deemed a security and subject to SEC regulations.

After 2013's pump there was a 1 year bear market and 2 more sideways. Why would this be any different? Wait a few years and maybe the markets will moon again.

Most likely ETH find a bottom and stay there. With the SEC killing off ICOs there is no real reason for anyone to buy ETH. The only reason that ETH had its massive pump last year was because everyone was buying it to get into ICOs. Who's buying it now and for what reason? Anyone?

Also, after being in these markets for years I noticed that money moves to what's hot. Currently that looks like Ripple. Also I've seen coins in the top 5 go into oblivion. Don't think that ETH has any protection against this just because it had a nice run so far and most icos still run on it.

I agree its a sick thing to do to a baby. The muslims do it to their women and call it female circumcision. When in fact all they are doing is cutting off their clitoris. It's no different than cutting a man's penis off.
