bithumb is a casino and casinos don't last. it'll be another china. if crypto gets really insane then the korean government will do something about it before too many people are burnt.

it's better to get on the most established exchanges and grow properly.

what's the deal gonna be with vpn users? essentially you're accessing the vpn provider's connection down a hole, but you're also heading there via a non neutral place.

just another sign of how third world america really is compared to other advanced countries.

they have much, much bigger fish to fry than anything bitcoin related. video will be where the battles take place.

the mystery miner, aka jihan wu, has hundreds of millions of unspent bcash piling up. they should apply to him. i'm sure he'd like to spend some of it.

you'd have to put your ledger seed into coinomi and do the derivation path thing. the alternative is to pull the individual private key out by using this offline - https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ and insert the private key into the bitcore wallet or sweep to coinomi.

whichever you do you'll need to empty your ledger of bitcoin first and abandon that seed.

i've never seen bitcoin billed as tax free. it's never been billed as anonymous.

it's quite obvious to anyone that tax is due depending on where you live just as it is for almost everything else on this planet.

your concern trolling really needs upping a notch beyond the painfully obvious.

 

no. why would you transfer bitcoin to bcash just to spend it? people would stay in one system. if low to no value transactions really are the be all and end all then whichever coin can do that will be considered the most valuable so you may as well stick with that.

low fees are not the be and end all which is why this debate is never gonna end.

if crypto goes truly mainstream do you think coins that are clearly junk will be ignored in favor of the real deals or will we end up with millions of worthless coins?

as the whole space is still relatively under the radar it's still possible to hoodwink noobs into believing that your latest piece of crap might have a future.

will it be harder to convince people of that if there are true blue chips out there or will those blue chips increase noob gullibility and desperation to swallow any lie? what do you think?

i can kind of guess there's gonna an explosion of shit but i'm also kind of hoping not.

ever notice that bitcoin explodes when china is removed from the picture? can you imagine how much further it would explode if chinese mining was (safely) removed from the picture too?

i am glad they're gone and i hope they're gonna be completely erased in the future. one day they can crawl back when it's clear they've lost out big time. 

i would like to know how chinese people are trading at the moment. is localbitcoins blocked there yet? are there other big p2p markets? are the chinese on foreign exchanges?

i'm seriously interested to see how effective fud is as the price becomes ever more serious.

will there be more or fewer strong hands? will people look to the ever lengthening track record of bitcoin shrugging this stuff off and discard it? will the usual fudsters become sidelined?

there's a boy cried wolf element going on here. what worked in the past may not have much attention paid to it in the future. either it gets more extreme and thus outlandishly silly or maybe it becomes ineffective.

with a truly huge bitcoin the usual crap won't wash.

the idea that decentralised exchanges will drive mass adoption is laughable.

most people can't program an alarm on their cellphone let alone run clients and nodes while seamlessly juggling atomic swaps.

it needs more competent exchanges like gemini. gemini has a banking charter, regulation and sufficient capitalisation to pay for capacity, developers and compliance. for better or worse we need exchanges that are as reliable as banks.

it's getting there slowly.

is this an officially endorsed position with some real legislation or the usual thing where it's a central bank interpreting existing laws they have no control over? 9.9 times out of 10 it's the latter.

five figures might be the beginning of the final euphoria phase rather than the end. it is indeed a huge psychological barrier but the countless people on here who've been holding out for it will suddenly realise they're greedier than they thought and not sell. and why would you? that would mean the party is truly gonna start. that's only a 165 billion ish market cap. big, but really not that significant globally.

ethereum's already had its growth, and truly insane it was. did you not notice it went from $8 to over $400 this year? bitcoin certainly did not match that. if you're expecting another 8x then you're nuts and you get what might be coming to you.

also it was largely off the back of icos. ico days are numbered.

the most important thing is your seed. it doesn't matter what happens to your ledger or ledger itself. as long as you have the seed you have your coins.

i can imagine there will be firmware updates in the future that'll be mandatory. we don't know what'll be uncovered in the future.

nope. splitting is your problem. as soon as you move your bitcoins to an exchange you're abandoning the private keys linked to the btg anyway.

no idea but that coin's been worked on for years and years. it used to be called emunie. maybe he solved this stuff long before anyone else came up, or thought, they came up with the idea.

why does low coin supply matter? if there are fewer of them all it'll mean is that each one costs more to match the market cap of a coin with more units.

as long as your bitcoin wallet is empty when you try to cash in it doesn't really matter any more. everyone who's anyone should know the drill by now.

and i'll guess most people are using coinomi. there's no point in messing around with a new wallet when that one does an ok job.

could we recruit an actual human being to rewrite the first post? i'm having some serious difficulty wrapping my head around what it's trying to tell me.
