they support blockchain technologies, but not the scams

Their actions show otherwise. More than one legtimate crypto-related twitter account were either outright or shadow banned and many legit crypto ads banned.
442  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: There's a new FUD on: March 18, 2018, 01:35:07 PM
There was a rumor that Twitter is going to ban cryptocurrency ads. Why won't they stop and just support the new technology?

They won't stop and support it, because those who hate cryptos - those who run and control the fiat Ponzi scheme and various governments, companies (including twitter), etc. - will do everything in their power to undermine cryptos. They know that cryptos have the power to make their control structures obsolete in no time, especially when the masses wake up and start to embrace cryptos. This is why they will attempt to ban, restrict and regulate it while proclaiming that they're doing it for our protection. Yeah right!

And another Russian has been murdered, and Putin has forced the English police to admit he was strangled, and they were reluctant to do this. This isn't the action of a guilty man.

Putin is blocking the invasion of Syria in order to remove their democratically elected leader - Assad. The game seems to be working towards removing Russia from the UN, so that they can invade Syria. They also need to create a war to cope with the collapsing dollar and the massive debt associated with it. They need control of the mineral wealth in North Korea as well, and that was what all the fuss and posturing was about. I bet they are p'd off now that Trump seems to be trying to find a peaceful result.

Russia is also working with China to replace the petro-dollar with the petro-yuan, or possibly the petro-ruble. That is going to have a big impact on the value of the dollar.

And not even to speak of all the Russian ambassadors, scientists and other Russians that were murdered, including Putin's favorite driver.

Here is a quote from the Guardian

Quote
Mirzayanov worked inside the secret military installation where novichok was developed; his job was testing the surrounding air and soil for traces of novichok.

When he realized that Moscow’s military was lying about the possible applications of novichok and that the program risked undermining global chemical weapons bans, he said, he decided to expose it, publishing his first account in the Russian press in 1991.

He was arrested in 1994 and charged with divulging state secrets. Intervention by the US government, the Soros foundation and activists including his wife Gale, an American, secured his asylum in the United States.

What a surprise - Soros was involved in the protection of the scientist who worked on the chemical.

Soros is the guy who funded the Clintons and Obama, and is currently funding the anti-Brexit movement amongst others. The sums of money he throws around are enormous - hundreds of billions of dollars.

And Soros is on record for having a strong disliking of President Putin.

Okay, I'm out. This deep state stuff to me is a symptom of people trying to make sense of the world around them and failing. To some people it's easier to imagine that there are puppet masters pulling the strings in the background, than accepting that the world is a chaotic place where nothing follows a plan. Nothing happens by accident, it's all just part of a grand conspiracy. But you, yes you, you figured it out. All the eggheads in their offices couldn't see through these evil machinations, but you realized what's going on after watching some Youtube videos. I guess you're just a little bit special.

I seriously hope that you can be given new faith in democracy. I wonder what has to be done. Does the political system have to become more accessible and transparent? Does the way of communicating issues have to change? Do you?

Sorry for the rant.

The truth hurts. It is better to respond with a rant based on half-assed assumptions and subjective BS than to face it full on.

The British military base at Porton Down - deemed a "pioneer in chemicals research" - is more than capable of manufacturing it. Chances are that they manufactured it, but unfortunately a truly independent investigation will never be allowed to take place while the likes of Theresa May sits in government.
449  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Was Sergei Skripal poisoned by the Russians? on: March 16, 2018, 06:03:27 PM
I don't really trust any government.

A quote from the article in your link
Quote
Novichok's existence was revealed by chemist Dr Vil Mirzayanov in the 1990s, via Russian media. He later defected to the US, where he published the chemical formula in his book, State Secrets.

So as I stated, the formula is in the public domain, and it could be manufactured by anybody.

Correct. It is published in State Secrets: An Insider's Chronicle of the Russian Chemical Weapons Program by Vil S Mirzayanov. I don't know for how long it will stay up, but it is currently available for purchase at Amazon.

I can't help to wonder how many governments and banksters have bought into the market and are now dumping along side the 'normal' panic sellers. This is not even to mention all the bots and day traders that are causing and benefiting from the extreme price movements in the market place. That being said, perhaps lower prices will be better for adoption as it will enable more people to get in. This while the first wave of panic sellers hopefully educate themselves and return to the market with a new found perspective.

Paradoxically, "Hodl" also seems to be a opposite position to Satoshi's ideal, because it would imply that our ultimate goal is speculation by supposing that bitcoin will be more valuable in the future than in the present.

If in fact we were worried about the libertarian dream that gave rise to bitcoin, we would all be totally involved in its use as a daily payment instrument, regardless of its price, which is why I infer that most of the "hodlers" are rather speculators.

Hodl is like saving - not something to frown upon. There is no need to spend beyond one's needs - or worse - dump at the first sign of danger - real or perceived.

Dear Panic Sellers,

If the news about Google Ads and Facebook, as well as bubble-bursting warnings from "respectable" institutions such as universities, economists, banks, opinion makers, investors and governments have convinced you to sell your coins,

If you let yourself be influenced by the messages and actions from these corporations and governments,

You have not understood a single thing about Satoshi's libertarian dream of decentralization and liberty and cannot cope with the responsibility that comes with these liberties. You were only hoping for some quick profit to sell for fiat... Now that you're losing dollars, you are crying all the way... well... to the bank.

I hope you got out completely and never will return, because I am convinced you are as big a threat to Satoshi's dream as the corporations and law-makers that convinced you to panic sell.



PS: To my fellow believers: HODL.  Smiley

Thank you for not sugar coating. Your words might come over as cold-hearted, but what you write carries weight. It is of course too bitter for some to ingest, but reality is that the panic sellers are causing millions of dollars in losses, while playing right into the hands of those who wish to crush Satoshi's dream and fully enslave us. That being said, I hope many of them wake up and come back for the right reasons. We're going to need as many believers on board as possible.
453  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Google will ban ads involving cryptocurrencies on: March 15, 2018, 11:29:22 PM
I think it's good for the crypto community as most of these ads are scam ads which makes noobs fall for them, Great projects don't need ads more for advertisement, thou it affects crypto mainstream advertising negativity it also reduces victims of scam icos on a larger extent, either way it's a win win

I disagree. A blanket ban is not the answer and never will be. You can have the best project in the world, but if people don't know about it, then your project is pretty much dead in the water.

They will start another world war before they will allow Brexit to happen for real. Brexit is currently nothing but smoke and mirrors - designed to fool and cheat Brexit voters. Theresa May was never in favor of Brexit, yet was appointed to lead the charge. They are toying with Brexit voters like a cat is toying with a mouse. It is a complete disgrace.

These bans are having a real bad effect on the crypto ecosystem. We should act and do something.

Someone start a project on creating decentralized net or something. Also, some ad services that are crypto friendly and stuff.

We need hardware for infrastructure to beat Google for crypto's sake. Anyone got an idea?

I couldn't agree more. My position on the matter is stated here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3126191.0

They are hoping that we are going to acccept it without a fight. They are pretty quick going to learn that they have very little authority left over us. They've gone too far.
458  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why did people get involved in bitconnect? on: March 15, 2018, 01:52:23 PM
Bitconnect looked like a pyramid scheme from early on, and it had a ton of warning signs. If you missed the fact even a ton of people on youtube told everyone that bit connect was a scam, so you didn't even need to notice it yourself.

I want to know why people got involved while knowing that it was a HORRIBLE scam from early on?

Those who got involved knowing that it is a scam are no better than the main scammers themselves. They got involved with the hope of making a killing - in effect stealing from others - and getting out early.

those country not listed above do not have a given statement or stand about cryptocurrency.

Good attempt, but limited and outright misleading in a couple of instances. E.g. bitcoin is not banned in Iceland, bitcoin is not banned in China (e.g. individuals are allowed to trade bitcoins), bitcoin is not banned in Venezuela (e.g. bitcoin miners just need to register), bitcoin is not banned in Nigeria, etc.

Although also limited in scope, the following list gives a better picture of what's going on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country_or_territory

In addition to the above, it is important to understand that most countries will not outright ban it. They will rather attempt to gain control via the gradual rollout of regulations - an attempt I suspect will backfire, especially when the masses learn about the true power of cryptos.
460  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Was Sergei Skripal poisoned by the Russians? on: March 15, 2018, 09:27:58 AM
When I first hear about it, I thought the timing seemed a bit odd, and, on the face of it, Russia would seem to have more to lose by his death at this time, than they have to gain. If they really wanted to get rid of him, they could have faked an accident rather than risk world condemnation.

Some background is strating to be found. It seems that it may be a contract killer, and not a Russian agent that was the perpetrator. There is also evidence that Skripal was associated with the Clintons, and recent investigations by Donald Trump seem to have resulted in a number of accidental and other deaths of people who may have been in a position to give evidence. Russia is starting to become a major world commercial power, and many of their changes must be worrying for the Deep State. Russia is producing some of the healthiest food in the world which will mess up their eugenics programme, and their oil exports supporting the Petro-Yuan must be damaging the dollar. I'm sure you are aware of many other actions by Russia that are helping us to move towards world peace. The Deep State hates world peace, and it loves war and the profits and death that result from it.

So what do you think? Was it a Deep State incident to attempt to destabilise world peace?

In my analysis it was a false flag and non-event designed to further swing public opinion against Russia. To further build the case for war against Russia (through BS and lies) - and a world war for that matter. They have zero proof that the Russians did it. The Russians are even willing to fully cooperate in any investigation, but have asked for a sample of the agent first.

The Russians had nothing to gain through the alleged attack. It is the hidden and warmongering controllers of corrupt Western officials who stand to benefit from it. They want war at any cost and don't care about how many people will lose their lives at either end, because they will hide in the safest countries and the best bunkers money can buy. They use false flag and non-events to scare the public into submission while pretending to be public protectors. They are using the same strategy to swing public opinion against decentralized cryptos in order to bring in centralized cryptos that will make it possible to control every transaction. In terms of the ongoing war against Russia, it is all about control and manipulating public opinion to justify an unjust hot war against Russia and her allies at the end of the day. This while encircling Russia with their armies and trying to gain first strike capability in terms of a nuclear strike.

Lucky for the world, the Russians have developed cutting edge nuclear capable weapons, designed to maintain a balance of power. However, make no mistake, when push comes to shove - the Russians will be left with no choice but to respond aggressively. They have so far been very patient and is in the business of advocating peace in a multi-polar world - a world where we can all get along, despite our differences.
