Just some error noises... I don't think there is any real transaction happened with those sharp drops in price.

So when BBC become expert for Bitcoin?
I thought BBC meant Gavin was the expert... Gavin now actually join others and agree that Craig will need to produce convincing evidence by moving Satoshi's coins or sign the key with sign Ature.... not just any sign Iture.

Maybe we can setup a "localpizza.com" to help people look for pizza shops that accept bitcoins...

These are negative publications of bitcoin, a disgrace to the bitcoin community. I hope people stop feeding them.

AML and KYC need to go hand in hand. I think most exchanges are working on this so that they can interface with bank to get fiat deposits. I think as long as exchanges are doing this, it will be difficult for money laundry to operate smoothly and undetected using bitcoin.

He is an Australian businessman staying in Sydney, and met Gavin in London... but maybe Gavin should go to Australia and not London....

If I am Satoshi, I will start moving my coins and cash them out!... since there is already any other someone admitting he is Satoshi- a scapegoat for others to target.

It must be Gavin! They met a few week ago in London, remember? Any the message in the first block was a headline in a newpaper in London.

How did you get to know this? I tried satoshibox.com but there is no way to get to all the listings...

My understand is that the bitcoin protocol can be changed in any way provided we have the "consensus" from everyone. There is no way to set anything in stone.
However, it is extremely difficult to achieve that.

!!! WARNING: This user is a newbie. If you are expecting a message from a more veteran member, then this is an imposter !!!
I keep getting this senseless and stupid notification when a newbie contacts me. Whoever made that notification deserves a slap.
I understand the feeling. Getting these kind of messages sometimes make me nervous- "Have I done anything stupid and get myself into some kind of scam?" kind of feeling.

This is indeed the first step to adoption by the mainstream. Who wants a money that can't buy you any to eat? We can now benchmark bitcoin price to 1KG of potatoes!

The entire bitcoin speculation obey's the rule or say indirectly depends on demand and supply.Halving is something else.The reward of miners decreases which in-turn makes a few miners less interested in mining but NOT all of them.The reward still exists.Miners fees has to be paid so don't think it will cause any big impact to be worried about.
But majority believe that producing one btc will now be more difficult so price will be in correlation with price of mining. So halving directly influence price rise, through "artificial scarcity" but this is only because people thinking this way, but because it is truth. I hope the majority don't believe that the price depends on the difficulty because that is a misconception. The price depends on supply and demand and the difficulty has no bearing on supply or demand. Price is only one of the many factors that drive difficulty. With the advancement of ASIC and more players involved, the difficulty will go up. But if the price remained low and keep dropping, many will find mining not attractive and will leave the game...

How I wish I heard about bitcoin in 2011! I only started in 2014 and was using Coinbase. Only recently installed the BitcoinCore but it is really resource consuming so I decided not to continue.
Hope more people can find their old wallets so that those coins will not be lost forever!

Bitcoin will be in big trouble if the price increased so much within such a short time!
I guess if we can go back to about $600 by the July's reward halving, we are already doing very well.

When the value to each coin becomes higher, the normal fee will become lower. Usually 100bits work for most of my transactions, which is less than 5 cents. I think when the value of coin increase further, the transaction fee should remain at around 5 cents...

Yes bitcoin can be hack, but it will cost the hacker so much fortune that it will convert the hacker into a believer...

Great news indeed! By the way, which "external payment provider" are they going to engage? Hope it is one of the good ones which can boost the image of bitcoin.

Therefore, the total number of addresses with amount > 0 is 136,897,703. If on average each user has 136 addresses with balance, then we will have about 1 million users.
However, I guess most of the addressees with 0-0.001 BTC belongs to users who try bitcoin and then left. Therefore, we will end up with 3,489,495 address with more than 0.001, which assume belong to serious users. If each user has 10 addresses, we will have about 300k bitcoiners.
