What is Tai Chi Chain?
Tai Chi Chain is a Grassroots, Community-Driven project built on top of the Stellar Network. We are focusing on furthering the development of decentralized & private dApps, Mobile, Web, & Desktop wallets [etc].


What background does your team have?
We have over half a dozen great minded people currently on the Tai Chi Chain Team [& growing]. Our Team consists of Coders, Miners, Mathematicians, Accountants, Advertisers, Public speakers for local communities, & much more. It's an amazing mix that everyone here is working hard to be apart of.


What will the Team Focus on?
We have a portion of the team working on the project & making sure all security measures are in place before anything is started. The other portion of the team will be working on Publicity & Marketing. Our overall goal is to create a Stellar Based Privacy Platform that's user-friendly, Private, & Secure. In short; Legality, Exposure, Development, & Expansion.


Does Tai Chi Chain have a Token?
Yes, Tai Chi Chain has a native Token called XTCC.


​How do I aquire XTCC Tokens?
Through Twitter Giveaways, Raffles, Airdrops, & Community Members.


​Are XTCC Tokens for sale?
We DO NOT sell tokens. However they are traded from one person to another freely on the
Stellar Decentralized Exchange [SDEX]. All tokens are distributed through Giveaways/Airdrops/etc.


​Can you mine XTCC Tokens?
No, we are based off of the Stellar Network which does not waste large amounts of electricity
for mining equipment to verify transactions unlike other slower & outdated blockchains.


Are XTCC Tokens available on an Exchange?
Yes, XTCC Tokens are available to trade freely from one person to another on the Stellar Decentralized Exchange [SDEX].


How much is one XTCC Token worth?
Any value given to XTCC is purely speculative just like any other Coin/Token in existence.
We have no control over what others are trading it for, so the price can range anywhere from $0-$1000+.


How many XTCC Tokens are in existence?
There is a total of 1 Billion coins in existence [1,000,000,000].
This amount can never be altered by anyone, ever.


How many XTCC Tokens are in existence?
There are approx. 20 Million tokens in circulation from our giveaways [20,000,000].


​What is the XTCC Trust line info?
IN ORDER TO RECEIVE XTCC TOKENS, YOU NEED TO TRUST THE MAIN ISSUING ADDRESS
Asset Code: XTCC
Issuer ID Address: GDDFBZGVJ6W6MELF2H4VTO5IRMKI5234GJVTIQNB6RPL5RI5X6K2SFQ5
Amount: 1000000000 (1 Billion)
*DISCLAIMER* NEVER send any donations to the address listed above!
Please copy & paste everything & double check accuracy for security reasons!


Why The Stellar Network?
Simple, the Stellar Platform has cheaper & faster transactions when in comparison to Ethereum or other known blockchains. It's also a much greener network which suites our view & correlates with our environmental awareness goals. It's also projected to be the largest growing platform of 2018.


Will Tai Chi Chain have its own Blockchain?
Our main focus is to build on top of the Stellar Network as of now, but in the future our goal is to have a much greener & environmental friendly public & private blockchain. Most likely it will be a fork of Stellar to allow Privacy Features implemented. We are working on this solution DAILY & it is not an easy task.

Binance is awesome.
Very responsive & understanding & are complying with a lot of upcoming laws.

Can't wait to do further business with them.

Thing is, Bitcoin can reach that 'cause it has first movers advantage.

I do not doubt that bitcoin can get to $1million USD. It's possible.

But so much can happen in the mean time it's truly still up in the air at this point.

You know what they say, only time will tell!
5  Economy / Speculation / Re: Decrease in price? on: February 25, 2018, 05:32:27 AM
It seems normal to me. Cryptos have their down time and will definitely go up after months. Will just wait maybe by mid of the year, bitcoin will start to go up again. For now, will just wait and hold my coins.

Agreed. I personally feel like it's an extremely healthy adjustment.

I feel sorry of course for those that got into the market at the end of the year, fortune doesn't favor all.

They just need to hold on though! It'll be back to normal soon.

8  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: China will block all sites related to cryptocurrency and ICO on: February 25, 2018, 03:47:26 AM

China will block all sites related to cryptocurrency and ICO transactions, including foreign sites.
Ads on cryptocurrency and ICO disappeared from Baidu and China's Weibo
China applies a variety of controls to ICOs and domestic and foreign crypto trading platforms, including a decision to ban all other related businesses, such as local and foreign crypto trading sites.
This statement is seen as a "knock-out" to completely stamp out the domestic cryptocurrency market.

This is insane & completely unreasonable.

This clearly shows the governments fear of self powered individuals.

It's truly unfortunate.

Elon Musk Reveals Personal Crypto Holdings



The billionaire CEO of SpaceX and Tesla told Twitter followers that he, in fact, has never purchased cryptocurrency, and only holds a small amount of Bitcoin gifted by a friend.

The tweet was made in response to scam posts on Twitter claiming to be Mr. Musk requesting Ethereum. It’s an issue that has plagued the Twitter network, with scammers impersonating blockchain figures such as Vitalik Buterin in attempts to steal users cryptocurrency. Twitter users are warned to never send cryptocurrency to anyone claiming to be hosting a giveaway or event.

Whilst the businessman may not own cryptocurrency, it was reported in 2016 that he was not against the technology. When appointed to Trump’s team of advisers he declared that Bitcoin was, in fact, a “good thing”, although he did not elaborate in great detail.

Last year Musk was center of attention in the cryptocurrency space. In November there was heavy speculation that he was, in fact, the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto, creator of Bitcoin. Believers of the theory cited his mastery of C++ (coding language used by both SpaceX and Bitcoin), his passion for solving global problems, and his silence on the issue as evidence. It was also hypothesized that as Satoshi’s original Bitcoin (worth $8b in November) have not been touched, Musk, valued at $19b being the creator made sense – he didn’t need the money. The theory didn’t hold up for long, however, with Musk again taking to Twitter to claim no involvement with cryptocurrencies. The real identity of the creator of Bitcoin will likely remain unknown unless Satoshi wishes to reveal their true identity. It’s a scenario that becomes more unlikely with every passing year.

Elon Musk’s lack of involvement with cryptocurrency is interesting, as decentralized technology firmly aligns with his professed aspirations for a better human society. Whether his involvement will change as blockchain technology develops remains to be seen.

Wow, you would think he'd have a substantial holding in BTC.

Anyways he is still doing great & no one should judge him on this article alone.

Great post.
10  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Suing Exchanges for Forks on: February 25, 2018, 03:13:24 AM
Some exchanges have not, and have no plans, to give access to coins from bitcoin forks. Many of them are already worth a substantial amount of money, and likely will increase in value. Is there a legal basis for suing exchanges to get access to such coins?

Since the exchanges are acting as custodial agents, they are holding bitcoin on behalf of the user, just like a brokerage does not "own" the stock but holds it on behalf of the customer. Whether or not the exchange plans on spending that bitcoin, if they do not give it to the customer they are stealing from the customer. Since coins from bitcoin forks are associated with the private keys held by the exchange, the exchange cannot argue that they did not "claim" them by taking no action, because they do own them, whether they wanted to or not.

I could imagine people pooling together to sue exchanges if this argument is viable.



I don't think anyone should be able to sue an exchange because they didn't give them "their" hardforked coins.

The thing is that, you should always have access to your private keys and never store ANYTHING on an exchange for long term(Hacks,De-listing,etc)
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Any chance for USA to ban bitcoin? on: February 25, 2018, 02:56:44 AM
Not sure what I would do if Bitcoin were to be banned in the US.

Tai Chi Chain is established in the United States & we have mining operations, traders, etc.

Would be the end of Tai Chi Chain  Cry

Round of an applause for this gentleman everyone!

This is how things should be done, legal & tax free.
13  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Legalizing Bitcoin on: February 25, 2018, 02:21:19 AM
Do you think governments are afraid legalizing bitcoin because it's difficult regulating its use, circulation, determining individual's worth, earnings and may lead to tax evasion?

Bitcoin is perfectly legal. If it wasn't there would be a lot of incarcerated people.

Let's hope it's never made illegal.
14  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Utility or Security Token? on: February 25, 2018, 12:33:35 AM
There's a huge debate on whether a company should go the route of a security token or utility token.

Utility tokens have been very popular, although we are seeing companies like Telegram start to issue security tokens. It seems like everyday there is new legislation passed somewhere on ICO's - some negative, some positive.

I thought this podcast, episode #130 of Joe Wallin's 'Law of Startups' podcast was an interesting debate between one lawyer who believes the SEC and other government organizations are going to crack down on utility tokens versus another lawyer who doesn't exactly see if that way.

Does anyone have experience with an ICO doing either a utility or security token? What was that like and how did you think about the legal frameworks?

http://www.thelawofstartups.com/ Episode #130 with securities lawyer Dan DeWolf

There are plenty of different types of tokens.
Tai Chi Chain Token is not a Utility token, equity, security, or any right to Tai Chi Chain.

We are doing everything as "Donations".

We believe this is truly a new way to raise funding without being classified as an ICO, but while still allowing users to trade these tokens with any given speculative value on decentralized exchanges.

TaiChiChain.org

This sounds sketchy.

You're telling me people are donating their money and not getting the ability to use these tokens in your platform? Nor do they get the benefits of owning a part of the company?

Sketch.


The Stellar Network is an open source blockchain. People can build dApps, wallets, etc on top of their Network.
The bases of our tokens is that they will be the only ones compatible with our Dark Wallet which runs on the Stellar Network(Extremely fast/Instant).
This Dark Wallet will provide privacy features which isn't available at the time on ANY Stellar Wallet(and no one else is working on this).

Tell me, what benefits are received from holding bitcoin besides the occasional failed hard forked coins?
What about Ethereum itself? Holding these tokens doesn't mean you are entitled to dividends like regular stocks at all.

How many people are donating to other platforms and are receiving tokens with only promises? 90%+ of them.

IOST token doesn't even have a use case yet, yet it reached a market capital of over $1B+ with hundreds of millions in volume.

All I can say is we are a legitimate & long term project that is here to stay for the whole ride.
Come check us out on Twitter.com/TaiChiChain
I can guarantee there is nothing "sketch" about us & we are regular people like yourself.

Sincerely,
The Tai Chi Chain Team.

16  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Georgia considering accepting bitcoin for tax payments. on: February 24, 2018, 11:05:50 PM
Good news: after Arizona, Georgia may pass a bill to allow bitcoin for tax payments:

https://www.coindesk.com/georgia-us-state-consider-bitcoin-tax-payments/amp/

“Two state senators in Georgia have proposed a bill that would allow citizens to pay their tax obligations in bitcoin, marking the second legislative effort of its kind to emerge this year.

Public records show that the measure submitted on Feb. 21 by senators Michael Williams and Joshua McKoon would, if passed, tweak the rules governing the state's Department of Revenue, letting it accept both bitcoin and other as-yet-to-be-defined cryptocurrencies.
"The commissioner shall accept as valid payment for taxes and license fees any cryptocurrency, including but not limited to bitcoin, that uses an electronic peer-to-peer system," the bill states.

The proposed law largely tracks with another bill that is currently moving through the Arizona legislature. That measure, filed in January, has thus far attracted support by lawmakers in the state, setting up the possibility that Arizona could become the first U.S. state to accept bitcoin for tax payments.

Like Arizona's bill, the one submitted in Georgia also mandates that tax officials convert those payments into U.S. dollars within a day of receiving them.

"The commissioner shall convert payments made in cryptocurrency to United States dollars at the prevailing rate within 24 hours of his or her receipt of such a payment and shall credit the payor's account with such converted dollar amount," it explains.
Despite the encouraging signs out of Arizona, there's no guarantee that the measure in Georgia will succeed given past opposition to such proposals in other states. As CoinDesk previously reported, a New Hampshire lawmaker advanced a bill that would allow cryptocurrency payments, but the state's House of Representatives ultimately shot it down in a January 2016 vote.”


Let’s hope those bills are finally passed as they would be a huge boost for bitcoin, and more countries would join.



This is awesome. I also heard they were trying to make it to where you don't have to pay taxes on bitcoin transactions under $600 per day. Let me find the link.

No one knows truly what the best solution is, and if you think otherwise it is just opinionated.

Arming everyone like the Wild Wild West would definitely not help.

It's a tough egg to crack and no one really knows the solution.

But the truth of the matter is criminals WILL ALWAYS get a hold of weapons.
18  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: irs and coinbase on: February 24, 2018, 07:38:34 PM
The IRS is in no way cracking down on the exchanges. Now they are going to do their job and go after tax cheats who want to stick their neighbors with the bill. That is what the IRS does.

Pay your taxes and ignore the IRS. Or cheat on your taxes and pay the price. Plus interest and penalties, and jail time.

Couldn't have said it any better..


PAY ALL TAXES. STOP TRYING TO WORK AROUND THE SYSTEM.

I feel as if their should an age requirement in order to signup on this site.

Everyone is trying to dodge taxes, no wonder they are cracking down.

Despicable.
19  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: How do I avoid tax on crypto on: February 24, 2018, 07:25:37 PM
If I make money on crypto currencies. How do I avoid as much tax as possible?

Never try to dodge federal taxes unless you feel like money is worth more then your freedom (it's not).

Pay the taxes so you can live a stress free life.

No reason being audited 10 years later, when you have a house/car/family, then having it all seized.

Stay clean and fly straight, always.
