Changing times and fast paced technologies are slowly influencing the ways we do our day to day transactions. Even third world countries are being introduced to BTC, though at a slower pace. It might take more than 6 years before something like mass adoption in far away places take place. People living in remote areas would find it challenging to adapt to changes because of logistical problems and infrastracture limitations.
I am from a third world country and yes, there have been websites in our country accepting bitcoin and services allowing users to cash out bitcoin to our banks, this proves bitcoin is now being used by almost all countries. One of the government official mentioned to have our own coin in the senate too. although i doubt it will be implemented. |

The Islamic State calls them “inghimasi” — zealous foot soldiers who intend to fight to their deaths. And as the American-backed coalition has reclaimed territory from the group in Iraq and Syria, that fervor has kept prisoners from being much of a problem: The shooting only stops when almost every Islamic State fighter has been killed. But that could change as the coalition moves toward the Islamic State’s largest urban strongholds — Mosul, Iraq, and Raqqa, Syria — raising a potential problem for the United States. If the coalition is successful and thousands of ordinary members of a collapsing Islamic State have nowhere left to retreat, will they start to surrender in greater numbers? And if so, who will be responsible for imprisoning them? After the experiences of the past decade in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the Obama administration is determined not to revive large-scale detention operations. But it is far from clear whether allies on the ground — especially rebels in Syria — are prepared to hold large numbers of prisoners, raising the prospect of an ugly aftermath to any victory. “If they’re not killed but detained, we are concerned about the standards of care, who would do it and how it would be done,” Peter Maurer, the president of the International Committee of the Red Cross, said in an interview. William K. Lietzau, who oversaw detention policy at the Pentagon from 2010 until 2013, said there was “widespread” opposition in the upper levels of the Obama administration to conducting wartime detention. But the alternative, he said, could lead to war crimes if American-backed local fighters encounter more potential prisoners than they can handle. “If the numbers start climbing, they’re going to shoot them and you’ll never hear about it,” Mr. Lietzau said. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/12/world/middleeast/lack-of-plan-for-isis-detainees-raises-human-rights-concerns.htmlUS and Russia should execute all ISIS fighters. Never take any prisoners. That is what ISIS did to Iraqi army. To win with these guys you have apply the same ISIS rules, not some Geneva convention mumbo jumbo. Bump up production of ammunition and send them to Allah the Merciful. There is nothing can change the minds of these people no matter how we educate them. If they've been a member if ISIS, then they're up to it forever. might as well give them to the Russians so its up to them. They can do whatever they want to them, if Putin push them down the stairs and say its an accident, so be it. |

I'm looking for a way to make a CD or DVD self-destruct after its first use or after a set period of time. Or, at least, make a PDF file contained in it self-destruct. I knew there were DVD by Flexplay which were able to self-destruct, but this company is no longer on the market: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FlexplayDo you know any other way to achieve such a goal? The self-destruction can be both physical (like the Flexplay method was) and internal. Sounds like a technology for James Bond movie, i like to know if there is something like that as we can easily use as well. but what are you up to? lol Extort someone and wanted the evidence to be destroyed before your victim can make a copy? |

i just got the message to after i loggedin.. do you think they'd lower their pay per hits when resume? The referral programm is suspended. Will come soon.
All new readers brought by you will not be counted and paid during this week. But you are still able to withdraw those funds which were earned earlier.
I'm guessing the program was massively abused, or maybe the cost just didn't convert to expected income. Hope to see it back soon. Might just be the reason, if bitcoin advertising network allows referral link to be advertised, it might just well be profitable. I don't think t his is an abuse though. |

Bitcoin may not replace the fiat money but might just compete well with paypal and the rest of the payment method that connects the banks to online transactions. I'm beginning not to use my paypal account due to bitcoin. And i think the rest of us too.

I've been following this as well. Unfortunately, they are not updating it real time like they are with the Dao project. It still shows Waves at #43 though given what has been raised to this point Waves should now be at #31. Again, this is an impressive metric as it reflects ALL crowdfunding projects from all time, not just crypto related ones. I hope the list gets updated by the end of the ico to reflect Waves' true standing. We will undoubtedly crack the top 30 with no problem. Here's one with active, upcoming & successful crypto-related crowdsales https://cyber.fund/radarBased on BTC raised, WAVES is at #7 1. TheDAO : 97,182.2 Ƀ and counting 2. Ethereum : 31,531 Ƀ 3. Augur : 22,036 Ƀ 4. Lisk : 15,128 Ƀ 5. DigixDAO : 13,290 Ƀ 6. Safe Network : 12,200 Ƀ 7. Waves : 8272 Ƀ and counting The DAO funds raised is misleading. Because you can pull your ETH out of the smart contract after launch. So there is virtually no risk of losing the ETH you invested With the others listed there was no way to pull your BTC out of the fund after you sent it If the DAO is included in these types of lists at all, then it should have an asterisk at the very least I've invested few ETH on DAO lately but yeah I wanna clear that up, where did you get the info where we can pull our ETH out of the smart contract after launch? As far as I know we just vote either yes or no for a project and the ETH will still remain as DAO token as bought. |

This due to the referrals ?
I was wondering lately as well since I tried posting them on my bitcoin channel which i do have bitcoin users that might be interested to invest on ICO but found out no eon ever register under me when few of them replied to my post saying they did register.
Alty left Cloakcoin originally. It's due to this and all sorts of other things listed in that post. Oh he left, I just read it. I never thought they've actually made it back them, its was very successful though. 11$/ cloak is definitely a good success. Too bad it just turn out to be scam when they all dump and left. I suspect history may repeat itself again if RISE get to be on the market. |

its easy to get a new wallet anyway. a simple sign up to an exchange site gives a lot of wallets.
I myself have almost 5 wallets not to count the hard drive wallet, these are from blockhchain, yobit, coinbase, poloniex and from a mixer. i don't use all of them though except yobit and blockchain wallet.

My advice is learn to gamble because by then you can post on topic insde the gambling section which is much preferred by signature campaign of gambling sites.
Learn to gamble not to the extent that you have to gamble all you earnings though, just learn few maybe poker, blackjack, bacarat or so.

I didn't know expedia accepts bitcoin back then. but yeah they probably figured only few people spend their bitcoin on hotel booking.
I myself would rather turn my btc into fiat for the purpose of booking to hotels.

It is said that bitcoin will destroy the fiat system but i believe that if this happens the world will change completly because banks and a lot of things will go out of market.
Not everyone will use bitcoin still. a better coins maybe just be preferred to be used later I'm just not sure which. ETH or Dash maybe. Cryocurrency as a whole will be used my many particularly for the online transactions so it may surpass paypal due to the issues they have about disputes. |

No big deal.
I am not saying governments are innocent as a baby but unless you are doing illegal shits, you don't need to worry about them having your fingerprints.
it is a big deal. it should be a big deal for you if you really give importance to anonymity and privacy. People can't trust a government to be a baby especially if you are a government official or politician and are using online banking application your iphone. |

Nope. Interest would die off. Most are here for the prospect of price movement. I doubt usage would increase as the cost and inconvenience of obtaining them is always going to be with us.
Exactly, the reason why people are investing in Bitcoin is due to the returns. The use of Bitcoin for malicious reasons is not a huge percentage of the total population. Most of the rich Bitcoin people are just waiting for it to explode. Some have interest to bitcoin is also because of its use, we use btc to buy investments here in the community so btc will always be the first choice even when there are new altcoins today that see to be promising. people will always have interest to btc for merchants accepts it... for gamblers, btc will be great to have. |

Any phone would do so long as you can install apps will work.
But it would help if the screen is a lot wider. Iphone 5 seem to have small screen. Note Galaxy of Samsung works a lot better for me. if you mean to see things clearly, you would rather use ipad or simply a tablet.

The great masters , can answer me please. I have 20k $ , left, goes through my head thinking of investing everything in WAVES now . They were in my situation , would want to bet everything on WAVES ?
Split them between Waves and DAO. LISK ICO is over, so you can buy some once it hits exchange. I will look to invest it. I believe that will multiply enough, Waves and DAO . Believes that reach $ 2k each unit of these currencies in the coming months? lol.. he probably mean $2. still got doubts for 1 Waves = $2 though. I wish to invest incase if happen still. I bought about 500 waves few weeks ago but turned out its now just less than 300 lol. will buy soon later maybe 500 more would be great. |

I expect Satoshi to be a nerd though not because he really is a nerd but maybe he just smoke 25 sticks of marijuana everyday while his hobby is reading penthouse.
There has been no proof given by wright so I guess the search for Satoshi still continues, how much is the bounty for finding him by the way?

And when you actually sell the account don't use the account when you want to sell this actual account because it will be marked as sold. by either people from DT or someone else, probably me as well  avoid doing that. you shoud first learn how they do it here, check the digital goods section. |

I have paricipated in this referral program , but I have a question . I usually shorten my referral link in bit.ly before I spread it , then I post it on Facebook and twitter , but bit.ly shows me more clicks than coin telegraph , so I think they didn't count all clicks.
I've thought if that too. using shortener has draw back since users suspects it leads somewhere else. hope to get paid by them as well. I hope they do have interesting articles everyday too. the photos on their articles are poorly edited, why do they have to cartonnized the images? |
