hillary is a nasty piece of work. Yet the polls say she will win.
And the odds. See 538 for that. Something like 23:77. But "what does it matter"? #Rosatom will get her impeached anyhow. 538 has made some bad calls. Although I do respect him for being a great statistician. Predicting the future is hard (see "Martin Armstrong Discussion" thread). So, I would not bet with 538's risk:return odds. Naah, re Rosatom and anything/everything else. Even the incredible Clinton Crime Family Foundation, a corrupt money-laundering machine of EPIC proportions. $hillary has the MSM and The Establishment behind her, and 48% of the votes guaranteed without having to lift a finger. Impunity. <--- It's what now stinks in America.

My worst experience was falling for a clever little scam a year or so ago that drained a blockchain.info wallet of mine. Part of the fault is on me though, for not being extra-careful.
Please be EXTREMELY CAREFUL when using Bitcoin. I had to learn the hard way.

... US$ and stocks are up pretty nicely. Even gold. There is danger when gold & the dollar are both up! Has Armstrong addressed this? * * * Thanks, vokain, for the Adams blog list of his articles. I liked the below one he suggests is important: http://blog.dilbert.com/post/126589300371/clown-geniusHe does know how to persuade. But his opponet $hillary is a nasty piece of work. Yet the polls say she will win. Ugh.

I am going to guess that The Halving does not have much effect on BTC prices. My guess is that BTC relies more on STOCK of BTC to FLOW (like gold), with the added dynamic of incremental changes in demand (like we saw a month or so ago re Chinese buying sending BTC over $700).
Stock:Flow
Demand
I guess we will soon see.

From that video, I came to understand that there are agencies inside the USA that the public isn't even allowed to know exist. Trump has made Christie his VP, who was strong proponent of the NSA during the Presidential debates. Trump has made numerous statements that it is okay to violate the Bill of Rights to in order to "protect the country". This isn't necessarily going to get better with Hellary out of the running. It's been a really shitty week here in Americastan. Lowretta, Big Bill, Chicken Comey, cop killer in Dallas, and now another racist killer sniping at people on a TN highway. Almost as if TPTB want our country in chaos, in civil war. So TPTB can come in when Americans start screaming for "help to protect the country". It's already been one of those "Long Hot Summers". Ugh.

Today's naked display of .gov corruption and totalitarianism (re Comey & the Department of JustUs letting Hyena Rodent Clinton slither away again) should convince many of you doubters that our country (USA) is in truly dire straits.
-- Bitcoin well hidden is good.
-- Gold and other PMs, well hidden, are good.
-- Exercising your Second Amendment rights is good.
Be prepared. A bad storm is coming.

... While being completely arbitrary, now is as good a time as any to track the prices of both gold and Bitcoin. ounce.me has Au:BTC ratio at almost exactly 2.00: Gold: $1348 Bitcoin: $672

I have not heard that before: that Japan may join the ranks of big BTC holders. IIUC, the largest HODLER of BTC is still the USA (although China is producing over 60% of new BTC in recent years).
groll, do you have any references or links that we could read? If Japan gets into BTC in a serious way, that would be huge news.

Its going down down down.. no effect of the upcoming halving right now.. It seems that btc will only increased its price when halving just got started.
Investors now the halving is there and selling now and cashing in profit maybe the smartest thing to do. I did not sell since i want to hold my coins at least 2 years before making a decision regarding an exits strategy. So if you are a weak holder, make sure to cash in now. A longer term view of BTC price is that it should do very well, go up a lot. I do not see BTC price getting much higher in the coming days/weeks because of all the stock (amount in circulation) of Bitcoin now dwarfs the 50% lower production. The halving will provide modest upward pressure, IMO, but not all that much. BTC price will depend more on demand.I am a "weak holder" of a percentage of my BTC (I am a strong holder of some). If it has a big spike up, I will cash some in. Some.

Scams are all over the place!
Be careful. I fell for a scam myself, and had a BTC address stripped clean of all my money there (a real amount, but not a "deal breaker").
A wariness bordering on paranoia is almost required in Bitcoinistan. Double-check everything.

Ive wonder why theres no people post some problems here regarding to their mixing experience in cypto mixer? is this a good news? that they didnt encounter some problem?
Well that really means that crypto-mixers are giving excellent service to their costumers thats why i dont see trolls here unlike bitmixers ANN there are several reclaims that their mixed money got compromise.
Cryptomixer is pretty new compared to other mixing service but the way they are handling every client responses and making mixing service faster with regular update is impressive. About no any problem getting posted, they are regularly testing every part of their service to not have any bug or problems but if anyone get it in future i think cryptomixer team can promptly help on the issue. 100% satisfied customers? It is amazing statistics so far. But there is no way of finding this thread if you are using cryptomixer and at the same time you are not an user of bitcointalk. There is no links on Cryptomixer's site which will point you to Cryptomixer's bitcointalk thread. Not like it matter anyway. At least Cryptomixer is professional unlike some other 'services': https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1530523.0That's an interesting observation, Hazir. Perhaps CryptoMixer (or even its fans) should open a thread or whatever there at reddit. But, continuing positive reviews will probably be enough should their service continue to be top quality. Has anyone run "Taint Analysis" on a destination address having used CryptoMixer's service? Bitmixer does a great job of hiding origin and destination addresses, I would be curious to hear of Crypto's result.

The only big problem with real estate is that property taxes can get very high, sometimes higher than an easy way to USE your property (renting it out, farming it, etc.) can support.
Living in a nice house in a state (country) where property taxes are high can be a burden. The state I am living in charges about 1.5% of assessed value. And real estate is easy to tax, it is obvious and going anywhere... (At least our other taxes (in toto) are relatively low.)
Also real estate is illiquid if you might need the money...

TPTB_needswar: That's not to say it will continue but unless there is some miraculous central bank inspired magic trick coming, how does gold plummet after this?
Strong dollar = crashing gold (at least initially) Trump victory will also support a strong dollar. What I was trying to get at was the question talked about in the video: USD & Gold both increased on Brexit vote, so does this indicate that a sovereign debt crisis in Europe (if that what it morphs into) is the reason for this trend, against current thinking? Yup, a rising dollar usually does mean a fall in the price of gold. But, not always! I forget who, but one of the commentators I read says that when BOTH the US$ and gold go up (sharply), "The End is Near". So, there. Now you all know a signal to watch for.

BTC price now back up to $691 (July 2, 11:45 AM US ET), the exact price where I took some BTC to buy gold a couple of weeks or so ago. Ahh, BTC then went on to go to some $760 on its spike, so my timing was quite imperfect.
This time I will wait a few days more (at least until July 9 or so) before I buy anything else...

Very good thread man. I guess you should consider being a blogger man. I think you will earn a lot from it. Blogging is hard work for very uncertain pay! Blogging never made me any money. Mike "MISH" Shedlock once wrote me by email saying that blogging makes very few people any money at all. And his blog has ads. It may have drawn in investors to the money management firm he works for however. Jim Quinn ( theburningplatform.com) appears not to make (much) money from his, he has ads and asks for donations.

CoinCube et al, I don't think we will figure out any of this global shit. It is just mess. If worry about that, we will neglect our own lives. I think better to focus on our own accomplishments. What ever happens globally will happen. I am going to be paying much less attention to it. Read this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1413819.msg15439016#msg15439016iamnotback & amigos I read an interesting comment at Zero Hedge re what he would do if Hillary gets elected. He will not fight, at least in the way in the way most of us think. He said his battles would thenceforth be only on a spiritual plane. ^^ I like the thought of that. ^^ Sort of an active "Going Galt".

Wanted to look up the wallet on Blockchain.info, but the transactions are huge. It almost crashed my browser.
No pennies or dust to my wallet. I have no relationship w/ Mt. Gox nor Chinese miners. I wonder who's behind it? * * * Yup, my computer froze up too. Google Chrome. Looked it up at blockchain.info as well.

Another fine thread, very well written as Dajackal mentions.
But, I am not sure that the first country to devalue would gain a lasting advantage. To be sure, there would be some short-term advantages (for their exporters, etc.), but later on...?
Also, I myself would be reluctant to put any money into a first devaluer. As I would have concerns that they would devalue again in the future. That country might not be disciplined...
My take is that free yet disciplined countries (as Germany apparently still is, and Japan was) are most likely to benefit over a longer haul. The USA did just fine when it was more restrained. In this era of "anything goes" (today's USA scandal is Lowretta's dismal appearance on TV today trying to downplay her private jet, 30 minute meeting with Big Bill), I think that it is a matter of time before we all suffer a financial meltdown.
