I think Brexit was the wrong choice for many reasons, it's not about paradise vs hell though, it's just that many aspects of the EU, including letting people work anywhere and money flow everywhere, were in large part made because that was what the UK wanted, being the country that invented globalization.

Really? How refusing migrant quotas forced by Bruxelles upon EU states can be a wrong choice?

Because the EU is about sharing benefits and burdens. Not only the benefits.

I have stated that I thought Brexit was the wrong choice for the British. However I didn't state that I was unhappy about it. I'm delighted that the British are leaving, now maybe the EU can go in the right direction, without a US trojan horse inside.

I really can't understand all this talk about claiming back your sovereignty when you have no problem with US soldiers and spies all over your country.

Meh cheap shot from me but.......

A  French man - preaching to U.K  about occupation !!??

C'MON??

 


Wouldn't you guys be eating Schnitzel etc if it were not for the Yanks and the Brits? 

(I AM KIDDING!!! BUT A LOT OF BRITISH AND AMERICAN PEOPLE DIED FIGHTING THE GERMANS IN YOUR COUNTRY- THEY AINT ALL  BAD)

I think you will find that the brits and yanks did fuck all compared to the russians in defeating germany in WWII. Cant blame you though since from watching years of Hollywood propaganda it would seem like the Russians were the enemies of the "allies"

Why so much resistance to get to 3500 USD? It's only an arbitrary number.

Because of €3000, but admittedly an arbitrary number as well.

On the contrary, I think we had a good and civil discussion. It can't be bad.

Respects to you sir!

 You know what would have made that discussion even more "good and civil"?  It's own thread in the proper section.

lol good one.

The 2x part will never happen in November but who cares?  Bigblockers have finally there BCash coin with no Segwit+8mb blocks...thats what they wanted, right?

What they want is control. Block sizes are irrelevant
 

The problem is that they can do the same things with bitcoin that they do with gold & silver. Meaning: keep it in a vault and trade on its paper useless idols.

(The good part is that we can do the same!)

1. Ah coolio

2. Great stuff

3. Agreed, not dismissing the part played by yanks or brits. But I think they already get enough credit (maybe too much) for the outcome of that war

4. Not anymore

5. Bring on 3600

Sorry no offense intended just I get passionate about most people ignoring history. I guess people in here are more awake (being a btc thread and all).

[Lauda]

Bullish? Congrats on the new ATH.

Why exortionists are still using Bitcoin for this stuff instead of using Monero is beyond me. Maybe they don't know better?

On other news.... The price is reacting to Segwit exactly as predicted. There will be dips on the road... but I think I need to readjust my price target for end of year.

Btw... what happened to r0ach?

$3500 !!! booooom

 Damn!  I missed it due to my complaining about topicality.
Is there any resistance now before 10k?

They are probably sourcing the coin that gets auctioned off differently than those that are on the market. I don't mind either way. I hope that we see >$3600 today.

The same reason for which people generally FUD Bitcoin or r/btc FUDs SegWit. They are stupid and/or ignorant to know better.

I wonder what the price will be at the time of activation. Maybe OP should change the poll to reflect on that?

(ps- Liquidity? easier to acquire for the victim?  surely they can take BTC and they can always move into Monero later to obscure their pesky bitcoiner tracks? or maybe they are BTC purists that consider every other coin a shitcoin?   who knows what goes on in the minds of these lazy fuckers)

I think that it has more to do with the fact that they know their victims would know more about bitcoin, be able to easily set up an account and buy it with fiat money. With Monero directly, that's not as easily accessible... hardly anyone has heard of it. I'm 100% sure that you will never see Monero listed for buy/sell on regulated brokers like Coinbase.

Also, the reverse is true with extortionists more easily being able to sell bitcoin for fiat somewhere. Or just convert it to monero themselves.

I'd guess that they actually want to receive the funds from the people they are blackmailing/extorting.
If someone says - pay me $1000, then you might do it, if they say pay me 1000 fluurks, you wouldn't have a clue what they are talking about.

People know about Bitcoin, maybe only a little bit, but they have heard of it. They could buy it if they needed to. Basically no one has heard of Monero, people would'nt know how to buy it, they would probably be more inclined to bin the computer, than pay.

But.... There are regulated exchanges that do have Monero, ie: KRAKEN.

Also the extortionist have a support line for explaining the "client" how to do it, there's not that much overhead for explaining how to obtain the Moneros instead of Bitcoin.. plus... when we are talking about this sums and corporates, I am sure they have access to cryptocurrencies "experts" that can obtain it for them and even provide OTC in a matter of hours. In fact I am sure it is not their financial director who personally do it... they hire someone for that (usually the same security firm that does the incident response).

Also, the get BTC now and convert to Monero later is not good. Look what happens with Wannacry ransom Bitcoins with everybody watching them... as soon as shapeshit detected the trade attempt they blacklisted (some minor part passed though).

It is way easier to guide the "client" to obtain the moneros and sent to them, and then convert to whatever (BTC probably) without that many worries that the money gets blocked somewhere along the "laundering" process or not blocked but closely followed leading to their identification and arrest.

Why I am "complaining"? Because I think that when all those arguments about Bitcoin used by criminals are completely erradicated there will be less bumps in the road to moon.

We just need to see how price reacts EVERY SINGLE TIME a dark market, shaddy exchange, etc gets closed.

Another thought. My conspiracy brain is always on. I'm not so sure that these ransomware attacks asking for bitcoin, are truly initiated by "bad guys".

How do we know they aren't being initiated by the Feds, deep statists, or whoever in order to continue their smear campaign against Bitcoin?

How would we in the public know otherwise?

How do we know that BTC-e wasn't framed?
