1721  Local / Oбcyждeниe Bitcoin / Re: ЦБ РФ защитит россиян от Биткоина on: May 15, 2023, 09:55:43 AM
Да, забавно, что СБП уже давно подготавливает дорогих россиян к цифровому рублю. Хотя фактически большинство населения мало понимает для чего нужен, к примеру, СБП и чем он отличается от обычного безнал-рубля. Де факто мы имеем уже сейчас много агрегатных состояний рубля:
1. Обычный наличный рубль.
2. Обычный безналичный рубль.
3. СБП - рубль.
4. Рубль цифровой, он же крипто.

А обычный безналичный у многих банков тоже немного свой. Допустим, Киви-рубль, мягко говоря, немного оотличается от Сбер-рубля.
Если пенсионеров, чиновников, льготников на него не переключат, то пользоваться будет мало людей. СБП отлично работает, процессинговые центры давно пора обновить на этот протокол, а то платежи в бизнесе днями идут.
Чем киви от сбера отличается?

🤔 Уважаемые форумчане! Как вы думаете, какое будущее ждёт криптовалютные обменники в России?
 
Расскажите о том, какое будущее ждёт криптообменники в России. Войдет ли работа криптообменников в правовое поле? Появится ли возможность официально лицензировать криптообменный бизнес в РФ? Или, быть может, в виде конкурента выступит государство, создав свою централизированную государственную биржу? Любые ваши мысли приветствуются!
Правовое поле, это банк, который проверяет паспорта, проверяет транзакции, хранит логи обменов и передает данные в Росфинмониторинг при обмене более 600 000 рублей.
Адреса крупных обменников на Бестчендж, синхронно устроить облаву в крупных городах не трудно, но сколько бизнеса они завалят?
Онлайн обменник, это сайт и карты дропов. С ними бороться трудно, они останутся.

___
Черный рынок будет всегда, как и менялы в каждом городе.
Я догадываюсь почему не заваливают. Обменники расслабились и многие сотрудничают. Пример с гидрой, ее закрыли, на рынке борьба из десятков конкурентов и они не расслабляются.
Выявлять всех игроков долго и затратно. Любой силовой метод закрытия государству даст больше проблем, чем выгоды.

@zasad@. Centers for cryptocurrencies in other countries. This does not solve the problem of regulatory inclarity for the people who want to invest and use the cryptospace in America.

It also appears that it is not only the businesses that are focused on the cryptospace that want regulatory clarity. The US chamber of commerce has filed a brief questioning the SEC for acting unlawfully vs. Coinbase.



The SEC’s actions are not just harmful policy; they are unlawful; and the consequences of the SEC’s continued delay are severe for that reason too.

The SEC’s unwillingness to announce the rules of the road ex ante, combined with its use of enforcement actions to impose or threaten liability ex post, conflicts with the Due Process Clause and basic principles of administrative law. And the SEC’s continued inaction on Coinbase’s rulemaking petition compounds these violations.


Source https://www.uschamber.com/assets/documents/U.S.-Chamber-Amicus-Brief-In-re-Coinbase-Third-Circuit.pdf
Let me tell you my opinion, if I'm wrong, then you tell me where I'm wrong.
In the US, democracy, they do not have bribes, but there is lobbying. Binance in the US is declared a criminal and almost an accomplice of terrorists, so many officials are afraid to lobby for the interests of this company. The Coinbase exchange has a lobby, so they influence the SEC from different angles. This is how American democracy works.
1725  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Gary, tell us what is Ethereum? on: May 13, 2023, 11:35:51 AM
I don't think anything will happen on March 13th.
Unlike competitors who are closing business in the US, the Coinbase exchange is doing great. It is a fact.
If the Coinbase exchange is sued, then this is a different situation, but for now, the SEC has rid Coinbase of competitors in the USA

/tinfoil hat on/ Could it be that it's all just a show to kill off competition and make sure that no foreign entity (especially Binance) gets any significant share of the crypto market?

Coinbase is also active in expanding its overseas operations, the question is whether they do that just to grow, or as a hedge against a potential heavy crypto crackdown in the US.

And I wouldn't say they're doing that great. In the first quarter of 2023, they recorded an operating loss of £124m and a net loss of $79m. Unless we look at their (non-statutory) adjusted EBITDA, which is looking pretty good: +$284m Vs. +$20m (first quarter of 2022).

I recently found this information. The SEC has been interpreting the law to their advantage for many years. Let's see what happens with this petition.

https://in.investing.com/news/cci-files-an-amicus-brief-on-sec-seeking-response-to-coinbases-petition-3641431
"Though receiving five rulemaking petitions from Coinbase over the past 5 years, SEC ignored responding for their Securities and Exchange Act clarity. So far, there is no proper approach initiation to rulemaking policies from SEC. By withholding the petition, SEC thwarts the regulation-by-enforcement actions awarding judicial review.

Seeking Clarity From SEC

Since the SEC lacks regulatory clarity, several U.S.-based organizations might shift their jurisdictions with the clarified frameworks to other countries possibly. Meanwhile, the countries like European Union (EU) and the United Kingdom (UK) work towards the active participation of technical leadership seeking foster innovation and safeguard market participants. To mention, the EU has cleared the ‘Markets in Crypto Act’ recently. "

1727  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to Stake MATIC off exchange. on: May 12, 2023, 12:24:10 PM
It's worth to noting if staking off an exchange isn't really mean you have no risk to lose your coins because you're staking on a centralized pool where there's a chance the pool is controlled by a scam group or hacker is successfully hijacked the pool.

Any kind of staking is centralized regardless you're stake on exchange or pool with your own non custodial wallet.
I think you are wrong. If you stake coins without intermediaries, then the validator you choose cannot dispose of your coins, and even if the validator decides to leave, he will not take your coins. But stakers risk fines and slashes if the validator misbehaves. This is the order in the polkadot ecosystem, so if someone is ready to risk 100% of the coins for 10% profit per year, then he should carefully study the risks.

Have you observed the significant number of project launches featuring the name "PEPE"? If you check the recently added list on CoinMarketCap, you'll notice that approximately 90% of the project names include "pepe." Lately, meme coins have been experiencing a remarkable surge in market capitalization. What are your thoughts on meme coins and the prevailing trend of pepe-related projects? Personally, I wasn't initially a fan of meme coins, but it appears that they have gained considerable hype. I'm curious to know your opinion on meme coins as well. Have you invested in any of them?
The fate of the pepe token and its clones will be the same as that of the meme token

1729  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PEPE AI Scamcoin ? on: May 12, 2023, 12:03:48 PM
Is the PEPE AI scamcoin or another memecoin ?
One of the first signs of a scam is when the name of a coin or token matches a well-known name + popular trends are added. For example, AI is popular now, but most projects are not viable.
If you are not able to evaluate the project and its tokenomics, understand when to buy and when to sell, then there is one rule for you: "If you don't know who is the sucker here, then you are the sucker"(С)
1730  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: The EU is on the verge of creating a new AML regulator that will oversee crypto on: May 11, 2023, 09:51:42 PM
Fuck, fuck, fuck. Europe is trully a joke. Seriously, how EU is good for the citizens? It brings nothing.
This union does everything to drag the citizen down. The goal in our life is to progress, not to be dragged down.
They should rather deal with all these invading refugees who arrive by the thousands in boats. Stop, stop, stop!!!

Here we already have measures concerning bank accounts held abroad (within the union). In which information about you is shared between our countries (if you have a bank account elsewhere, the taxman knows about it)

But now the CEXs are going to be included in this scheme. Which means in the end: your country will know if you have an account with Kraken, Binance, and others... But it will also know how much you have in coins...
I hope for you that you have filled in your tax returns perfectly, and you have not tried to defraud, otherwise, "hello problems! how are you?"
These are not the problems of Europe, but the new digital slavery. When people told me about this 5 years ago, I thought they were a little crazy. We have no more than 2-3 years left when the legislation will work, and if you send coins to a centralized service, then after that it will be impossible or very difficult to become anonymous again.
1731  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Gary, tell us what is Ethereum? on: May 11, 2023, 09:47:15 PM
I thought that the SEC would not respond to the petition without the decision of the Court. I do not want to rush things, but I do not understand how the SEC will clarify its position in 10 days?

No idea how this is going to unfold, but I think there's a zero chance the SEC will provide any clear rules. I expect they'll either provide a vague response, or just won't respond at all. What's the worst that could happened to them if they don't? They get fined and pay with tax payers' money?
Anyhow, they have time till 13th May, so only 2 days from now.
Apparently, some crypto-groups are piling in in support of Coinbase:

US Government Remains a Top Bitcoin Holder With Seized Stash Valued at $5.6 Billion

"As of March 25, 2023, the U.S. government held 205,515 bitcoins worth $5.6 billion, which is approximately 1.06% of the circulating supply, according to current statistics. The cache of bitcoins is a result of three forfeitures that began in 2020. Glassnode’s on-chain data reveals that on March 9, about 9,860 bitcoins worth roughly $269 million were sent to a Coinbase address.

Uncle Sam’s Crypto Stash: How the U.S. Government Became a Top Bitcoin Holder
The U.S. government currently holds 205,515 bitcoins valued at $5.66 billion based on today’s exchange rates. The bitcoins were confiscated in three cases, including the Silk Road bitcoin seizure in November 2020, the 2022 Bitfinex hack confiscation, and the seizure of bitcoins from James Zhong last year. Of the total, 69,369 BTC was seized from “Individual X,” 94,643 BTC was taken from Ilya Lichtenstein and his wife Heather Morgan, and 51,326 BTC was seized from Zhong in November 2022.

According to a report from Glassnode on March 9, 2023, some of these bitcoins have moved, reducing the total from 215,338 to 205,515 BTC. “Approximately [40,000 bitcoins] from wallets associated with U.S. Government law enforcement seizures are on the move,” Glassnode reported. “The majority of these appear to be internal transfers (so far). However, around 9,861 [bitcoin] seized from the Silk Road hacker have been sent to our Coinbase cluster.”"

Personally, I see that Binance is trying to be a central cryptocurrency and milk these projects to achieve maximum profit.
Crypto exchanges have long ceased to be decent, so they are ready to list any shit for money or add trading in those tokens that are popular. Huge trading volumes of the PEPE token on the Binance exchange. It's good money and it doesn't smell like shit. Of course, I am for freedom of trade, but really good projects cannot get on this exchange, and useless memcoin, which will be forgotten, gets on the exchange very quickly.

Я также придерживался и придерживаюсь мнения, что вот эти первые покупатели мемов, дающих потом миллионы процентов профита, покупаются не случайными инвесторами а-ля просто опытный криптан с чуйкой.

А так это еще один пример фейковой децентрализации, которой пестрит альткоин индустрия.

Мда, похоже, что если кто-то хочет получить тысячи иксов и заработать миллионы долларов с помощью мем-токенов, то единственный вариант сделать это - создать собственный токен, добавить ликвидности на дексы и создать огромный хайп на ровном месте, чтобы привлечь хомяков. Если с первыми двумя пунктами все понятно, то вот маркетинг с целью привлечения хомяков может быть действительно сложной задачей. Undecided
Сейчас время не то, когда хомяки не знают куда засунуть деньги. Кто не выпрыгнет вовремя, потеряет. Другое интересно, BTC или эфириум сейчас это не про массадопшин.

This is a very delicate topic. And for Russia, it can be no less terrible than the approaching military defeat.
Social defeat! The population of Russia is already far from the fictitious 140 million. Now millions of citizens, of the most productive age and the most intelligent, have already left Russia. About a million more were killed and maimed in the fields of Ukraine. 40% to 60% of the population lives in poverty. Degradation, alcoholism, first place in tuberculosis, AIDS, life expectancy is decreasing every year, and mortality is growing. This is social degradation, which may no longer be reversible. And soon 90% + of the population of Russia will consist of a lumpenized population of younger / middle age + pensioners. Neither one nor the second will give the state anything other than social spending and problems!
Who wants to live, conditionally, among pensioners, alcoholics and tuberculosis patients? No one, and therefore more will leave, and many ...
How much will you fantasize?
Well, at least one link show?
Even if 500-700 thousand left Russia, the majority returned back, because even in Turkey it is difficult to live without money, and the salary is only enough for food and a hostel.
"million more were killed and maimed" there is no such data even in open publications of foreign intelligence services.

"2) This address, 0xAf2358e98683265cBd3a48509123d390dDf54534, was actually blacklisted by the PEPE deployer. They own 2519324010963 tokens that are locked up forever. These coins are worth about 8 million USD right now 🤯."
wow that's really sad, their smart contract indeed allow black list by developer, I wonder if there's someone that actually bought the coin at very early phase deserve just to be blocked like that, seems very unfair.

"New European Union rules allowing tax authorities to share data on people's crypto holdings have been unanimously supported by the bloc’s member states, meaning formal agreement on the law is likely next week, a senior official has said.
Last year the European Commission proposed to curb tax evasion using crypto via an eighth amendment to the Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC8), widening an existing law that is intended to prevent taxpayers from stashing taxable assets in hidden overseas bank accounts.
“EU ambassadors have unanimously supported DAC8, paving the way for an adoption by the ECOFIN next week,” commission official Benjamin Angel tweeted Wednesday, referring to the regular meeting of economic and finance ministers that is due to take place in Brussels on May 16."
