a few weeks ago, the outstanding issues that the bitcoin price falls due to south korea plans to ban bitcoin. but until now, after the south Korean government announced officially does not prohibit bitcoin, the bitcoin price is still down.

bitcoin illegal  some asia country bt why?can you give me some reason about this?? thanks

Ethereum is already 70% of Bitcoin.  It has been getting stronger for two months now.  It will probably pass Bitcoin by the end of March.  There is no future in Bitcoin.  They are making no technical advance in over two years as LN is proving to be a total centralized pig fuck - that doesn't even work. 

One plus on Ethereum's side, the market price is nowhere near as volatile at present.

I like to add to this.  If i were to get a separate computer to do things such as download porn/stream tv shows and sites etc... what would you recommend?  A regular laptop or a chromebook?


Also someone mentioned that even if you use a separate computer... if you were to use your regular internet connection, a virus could still get to your network?  For example on the laptop i mainly use, i would be using my own internet connection.  But with the separate computer, even if its a different computer and i download porn/visit dangerous sites etc but i use my own internet... then its possible to get hacked?  So i would need to use another internet connection to download porn/stream tv show and sports etc?

Travelling using bitcoin as payment is not yet implemented if this can be implemented i can travel to a country that i want . Travelling is one of my dreams to fulfilled , eversince i was a kid i always said to mu parents that someday i want to travel in different countries when i am in exact age. And i want to tell my children in the future the story of my travels in different countries in this world , my experiences in travelling.

The reason I don't understand how this stops account farmers, is consider this:

Assume an account farmer with an extremely large number of accounts has roughly the same number of mean Merits per post as a normal user.
If he gets 100 Merits, he also gets 50 sMerits. He then redistributes these 50 sMerits amongst his accounts. Assuming he has planned this well, he should be discreet about it, and in the end he'll get 25 more sMerits to distribute.

Once you calculate the entire thing, you realize that for every Merit the account farmer receives, he gets close to a total of two Merits across his entire group of accounts, once you account for sMerits.

Counterargument:

I think this might just be the Toupee Fallacy.
You only ever notice that bad colluders are performing collusion, so you assume that everyone who colludes will be readily noticeable.
When collusion goes well, and with the merit system, I think it might be easy to hide, you will not notice it... and hence assume that the only people who collude, are the ones who obviously collude.

So in the end, account farmers get twice the merit across their accounts for the same quality of posts.... which is an issue, but I guess it's not the worst.

I wish there would have been some sort of option of giving dislike (-ve merit) to the spam/LQ posts and if any post receives certain -ve merits/dislikes,it should be automatically deleted /hidden

Don't miss this kind of opportunity when you have a capacity to go to college. Mostly today's professional careers need to be a college level or graduates degree. This is more important in order to get a high salary grade job. Big companies demand for it for the efficacy of their employee into works achievement.

Guys, stop being SO DUMB.
Ethereum will always be much more beter than bitcoin, only if bitcoin does not implement the Lightning network.
For me, it is the same, only that with etherum you only pay $0,80 worth of fees. LMAO

Bitcoin and ethereum is a great coin and have large number of users and have great performance in market and still improving their performance and are getting more users with a quick speed and price is also increasing and in 5 years bitcoin and ethereum will get high popularity and most probably will get legalization in various countries.

According to me, the lack of knowledge and the lack of interest in the world of crypto currency can be the possible reasons of losing money and not making anything good even being there in crypto currency. You really need to make a self-analysis and you need to figure out the actual problem. This will give you a fair idea of what the problem is actually and correcting that will help you in making more money.

To be a 100% drug free would be hard to achieve. But a single drug pusher taken out solves at least some of the causes of crime related incidents. Many lives will be spared because this single drug pusher caters to many of these addicted users. I think the Presidents efforts have paid off. He had eradicated most of the big time drug dealers and now drugs are not so rampant and they are hiding in fear.

I hear from some people that when selling a large amount of Bitcoin and having that money hit their UK bank account,  the bank has froze their money or notified them they will close their account.

Other people say they had no issues and no one has said anything.

Have you have any problems and more importantly who gave you the best rates and was the least hassle to deal with.

Cloudmining is not good for you,  brcause after few months for sure they will close that.  Many cloudming close now even they are trusted they have possibility to close or turn into scam . Better if tou mine at your own,  but you need capital because you can buy equipment and pay electricity bill and that's okay because this is safe instead of investing in cloudming your money is not safe to them.  But it depends to your location if it's good to mine or not because you need to checke first the electricity bills if they are expensive or not. Many people use solar to prevent high electricity bill you can do that also if you want.

As a NEWBIE, how would you explain bitcoin as against other offline currencies?
Which one has more market value and why do you think so ?

The more mainstream big companies that accept it, the more "legitimate" it becomes, which is good for all of us hodlers. So, I say this is great news!
