I remember that thread, cashed out 20K Euro in one shot is a bad decision, there's financial regulations about money transfer through banks in order to prevent money laundering or something like illegal transactions. Well, it will be different in some countries as govs have their own regulations, yes, you will get investigated, but authority or law enforcement will not arrest or torture you only because your huge transaction as long as you can explain about the source and fill all the documents about it.

Indeed, people should be fooled if fall into the same mistake twice only because FUD news, we know South Korea is bitcoin friendly country with huge cryptocurrency trading volume, and the news were clear stated about ban ICO not bitcoin.

Something intrigue from this article;
Cryptocurrency is supposed to be government-proof, and while that’s entirely theoretical, current evidence still seems to support that promise.

I am not sure about government-proof, Most countries doesn't have fix regulations about cryptocurrency, but people freely to use and trade it, which is good, as long as the exchanges comply with applicable financial regulations. But, it doesn't mean government should not interfere, especially when bitcoin trading volume getting bigger in their country.

What is strength for bitcoin?
It just gain more fiat currencies that has been invested into bitcoin.
The real strength of bitcoin is people who believe in bitcoin, didn't intrigue to panic sell when some bad news occurs.
If there are a lot of people invest in bitcoin and expect profits by sell it later, it is not a strength for bitcoin development, the cycle will recur when the storm comes.

The most important is the price obviously, even the market cap mean nothing in crypto world due to some reasons.
How if we discuss about this when an altcoin could reach at least $1000? There are few coins that ever reach that point such as bitcoin cash, byteball (almost) and Monkey (MNY), but none of them could stand at the point for a long time. Which mean, there's no any coin that could surpass bitcoin value.

Be ready to lose your funds.
Trading isn't an easy way to doubled your money.
Normally, buy bitcoin and hold it for certain time, 2-3 months will be profitable.
But, there are some events that must be considered which has an effect to bitcoin price, such as crypto regulations in China.
If you planned to trade bitcoin, buy and sell it everyday, it will be hard to get profits, as you need bigger capital to start, and be ready to loss. What you have to do is; constantly check the news to get more information about bitcoin development which will affect the price.

There are a lot of verified payment method to purchase goods from Amazon, and they are only accept some legit payments method which bitcoin can't fulfill right now due to volatility. Thousands transactions during the day and bitcoin could rise and fall within minutes, a bad option for their management, unless third party willing to be the middle man to convert all those bitcoin instantly, just like BitPay did with several companies.

Looks interesting, do you have ANN thread on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=159.0 ??
People need to see the road map, developers team and how this project will be going in the future, what's the benefits for investors and so on. Then, if you want this ICO success, hire a manager to start a signature campaign, bounty campaign and social media campaign.
As the site mentioned 15 partners of the company but only revealed 2 people as the founder. I guess, you should mention all of them in the announcement thread.

A good help to check different information without going through the hassle on the process.
A good idea to mapping the crypto world, even gambling casinos , beside coins, exchanges, wallet, ICO, and crypto debit cards, what else you guys want to add into your site? Maybe the best coin mixer, just like chipmixer.

LoL , the title mentioned "it's clear now" then you ask they have higher rate or not?
They have big portion of bitcoin for sure, their trading volume btc-cny always be the highest value, at least mostly.
Since, Chinese people out of business, the biggest trade currency switch to Japan yen.
China hold maybe quarter of total bitcoin in circulation, I guess, because they have the biggest mining pools, mining farms and most mining hardware such as antminer s9 produced by Chinese people.

This problem is clear, no way to recover it due to Bittrex policy.
Yes, you can consider as untrustworthy or not responsible, do not care about their customers, simply because they deal with thousands transactions from thousands of people. It can't be easy to solve all the problems, but stil, you deserve what belongs to you.
Explanation by Andrew Chow:
As of what happens if someone send BTC from a BTC wallet to BCC wallet address, the transactions go through.

But you can only see that transaction in the Bitcoin Blockchain rather than Bitcoin cash blockchain.

I will simplify with an example.

Say there is an address named "abc" in BTC and another address named "def" in BCC.

abc has 1 BTC (Bitcoin Network)

def has 0 BCC (Bitcoin Cash Network)

If a person by mistake (or for fun) sends 1 BTC from abc to def. Then the balance changes as follows:

abc has 0 BTC (Bitcoin Network)

def has 1 BTC (Bitcoin Network) [Assuming there was no transaction fees]

def has 0 BCC (Bitcoin Cash Network)

So, if the owner of def in BCC has the private key of that address, he can access the BTC in def as well.

But if he unfortunately does not hold the private key of that BCC address (like it can be of an exchange where you don't have access to the private key), then the BTC cannot be accessed by the owner of the BCC address.

Hope this answers your query well.

Indeed, I must be friends with hackers at that time, 
I don't see it coming, paper money will last for another century I guess, but mostly payment will be made through digital or virtual currency issued by central banks, or in the time when bitcoin acceptance in global market increase and become one of the major payment method, we may rarely use paper money. But, doesn't mean hackers will be easily manipulate fiat currency due to every transaction will be recorded and can be traced.
There's no equality for the poorest, that's why we should help each other, give some of your wealth to them. As I said before, paper money will be here for the next century, or else, if everything will be digitalize, everyone should be able to use it even though for the poor.

There is no loss in trading bitcoin in my opinion, as long as you can wait for weeks until bitcoin price recover.
I don't think bitcoin is a good option to do daily trading as the price just fluctuate a bit, within $100-$200 and sometimes less than that.
If you invest $100-$200 into bitcoin and the price just rise $50, you may earn a little bit and vice versa if the price decline.
Try to calculate it, and you may manage to get max $20 daily, depend on bitcoin price fluctuations.

The first business that create customers apps should dare to take the risk of volatile cryptocurrency.
Those business owners have to cooperate with third party platform to exchange cryptocurrency instantly into fiat currency.
I won't say it will be everywhere soon, but maybe another 3 years to get there, if many countries regulate bitcoin and ethereum as legal payment.

Yes, it's happened many times if the shipment out of the country as there's nothing you can do but contact their customer service.
Fortunately, you haven't purchase the S9 hardware, it's better than if you get shipment trouble in the future.
As China still crack down exchanges and cryptocurrency business may affected, including Bitmain mining pools, they may temporarily stop to produce, or you should wait next batch produced. After check Bitmain website, there's an announcement; Bitmain's Offices will be closed Oct. 1-8 in observance of Chinese National Day. Processing of repair, shipments and ticket responses will be delayed during that period.

$4315 right now, bitcoin slowly recovering to $5000 on October I guess, even though Viabtc and BTCC closed but Chinese people still have OKCoin and Huobi to trade cryptocurrency, even bitcoin price reach $4345 on OKCoin right now.
Let China government crack down exchanges and check all they want about it, give them few months just like in the early of this year, and then they may come back with some licensed exchanges in the next year.

Save $305 from credit card fees and Fiat exchanges is fantastic.
Thanks for share your experience, will encourage more people to use bitcoin even though it's always fluctuate.
But, as long as there's no bad news which lead to another crash, price fall down over $1000, it will be fine.
Well, if you can share some photos about your journey will be great.

Really take my attention, it's a big company, right? And they trying to collect more money, as they said; taking the business to the next level requires more capital to scale our impact. ICO is a cost effective mechanism for raising funds and provides an opportunity to engage with the community and build products in consultation with token holders and experts.
in order to advertise their services imo. One of project that will be successful I guess, 62,73 ETH raised so far.

It's a good idea to well some goods through a site, but people have to know that this site is legit and attractive.
I would like to see more goods to buy as I have nothing to sell, and vice versa for other people, do you get it?
Please make it more interesting and informative, just like E-commerce out there, without any further details, people will consider it's not a serious thing without any effect to advertise something that they want to sell.

It always become a good thing to speculate about bitcoin will rise in the future and vice versa.
If more people join in bitcoin environment in order to trade bitcoin for profit, it may cause volatility in the market.
If people really believe in bitcoin to store the value and use it as medium of exchange, the price will constantly increasing.
Indeed, bitcoin isn't all of those but consider it as an alternative currency which still on development to gain more value and stability.
We can't say bitcoin price will reach certain price tomorrow or next week, moreover for a month or years, but we just speculate based on our predictions due to current market situation, it may not precise but at least almost true.

She said to ignore, beware or aware of bitcoin?
As she said; virtual currencies “might just give existing currencies and monetary policy a run for their money
Honestly, I don't trust IMF or any other central banks, all they want to give you debts and a country will be suffer under the interest without enough power to get out. They will try to ban bitcoin in some countries, maybe, or just let it grow until the time to cut it off, when bitcoin reach certain price.
