This is my meme, while waiting for the CFTC approval 

I dunno why bit I’m not expecting BAKKT to have that much of an effect on the price. I remember similar hope when Gemini were about to open their doors only for it to turn into a limp dick.

Will BAKKT give us a big pump?

Source, please? It's a bit surprising for me to see that South Asian countries have little to no percentage share in that graph.

On the face of it, the Unexplained Wealth Order against Zamira Hajiyeva shows the UK cracking down on the torrent of corrupt money that gushes in to the City of London every single second. But dig deeper.

Hajiyev’s husband had fallen out of favour with the appallingly kleptocratic Aliev regime in Azerbaijan – a dictatorship whose corruption can be measured by the infallible indicator that Tony Blair is currently working for it. Hundreds of billions have been plundered from Azerbaijan’s oil revenue by the Azeri oligarchs.

So is the British government going after the very substantial assets in the UK of the ruling Aliev family? No. Is it going after the very substantial assets in the UK of the oligarchs surrounding the Aliev family? No. It is only going after almost the only Azeri oligarch who fell foul of the regime, and is taking an action which the Baku dictator will applaud rather than decry.

While her father was still dictator of Uzbekistan, Gulnara Karimova was subject to seizure of looted wealth and investigation in Switzerland, France and Sweden, among others. In the UK, where she had a home and very substantial assets, no action whatsoever.

What are we to make of Theresa May’s huffing and puffing about the Skripal affair, when the UK’s richest resident is Alisher Usmanov, who is Vladimir Putin’s old flatmate, right hand man in the media and business world and chairman of Gazprominvestholdings? There is no chance whatsoever any action will be taken against Usmanov, who acquired his assets in the most dubious manner imaginable. Usmanov is far too entrenched in the City.

These people interact with the British “elite” in any number of surprising ways. Claudia Winkleman’s husband made big money from producing a vanity film project for the Azeri dictator’s daughter. Former Foreign Secretary Dr David Owen is Usmanov’s factotum in the UK. Just two of many thousands of links that tie the UK’s gilded elite in with the looted wealth.

The Conservative Party has directly received donations totaling over £3 million from Russian oligarchs. That buys a lot of influence. But more important still is the influence of the City of London, where wideboy bankers grow rich on the World’s most sophisticated and “respectable” money laundering operation. While the Tories are determined to bluster us into a new cold war to benefit the military, industrial and security complex, none of the sanctions taken to date and none that will be taken have had any serious deleterious effect on the holders of the hundreds of billions of money looted from the Russian people during the Western mandated and organised privatisation of Russia’s mineral and industrial assets. Even as false rage over Salisbury fills the airwaves, the oligarchs are privately being reassured their money and lifestyles are safe.

In a United Kingdom dominated by the cesspit that is the City of London, it is not just that money talks. It is that nobody else is heard.

Rumours. That's very interesting to me as a way of describing bitcoin ownership, which can only ever be like a rumour.
Idea needs developing, but I must be off for a stretch.

Acutally, we don't need a short pump. The effect of bakkt (like the halvening) will be felt after several months. The first Bakkt product will be physically settled and delivered 1 day Bitcoin futures (Bitcoin “backed” contracts). Meaning you trade futures each day, but then you get 1 Bitcoin in your Bitcoin balance from a contract. It is almost certain that ICE will buy Bitcoins via OTC deals from Gemini and other exchanges (Coinbase, Bitstamp and Kraken). This should lead to a gradual rise of the price in 2019.

SO its the 1 year anniversary of this guy.... hopefully people wil doing more research to avoid this SCAM artists and just buyin BTC.

[HairyMaclairy]

I don’t think Bakkt will buy any BTC itself.  Rather anyone wanting to sell futures will have to deposit on Bakkt.

Jesus Christ . I'm here to celebrate bitcoin. the brexit argument was won 2 years ago. my country , my vote. move on millennial

You probably think Jesus was white.  Gen X here if it makes fell better to lable me.  millennials are the ones that get over offended.  

Funny though that you're the one that gets over offended by people that speak a forigen language or might have different coloured skin.

Leave voters fell for the "kick out the immigrants" argument from Nigel farage, the desendent of Huguenot refugee, or Boris Johnson the decendant of Turkish Ottomans.  

While "your" country goes down the shit hole large numbers of people are planning to leave or have already left.  

Your "the brexit argument was won 2 years ago" is also pretty funny, considering how many people googled "what is the EU?" after the vote.  And thats how democracy works, you get a chance to change your mind later if you don't like the shit the politicians are delivering...   and so far 2 years and 4 months later, we have precisely nothing.  not a single agreement.  

My phone battery is at 52% do you reckon it's spoken?  i checked it again it's 42% at the last count.
https://whatukthinks.org/eu/questions/if-there-was-a-referendum-on-britains-membership-of-the-eu-how-would-you-vote-2/

You see, remainers are the current majority, it's just difficult to shove it in peoples faces, seen as the leave voters like to throw the toys out the pram.  What are you scared of? Beetroot? unpronounceable lager? or that they are taking your women and jobs?

It's just sad to see the pound worth 1.12 to the euro, compared to pre vote of 1.30 to 1.44.   It's also sad to see that the 2 world wars fought against nationalism have apparently been forgotten. but It's good to see you celebrating bitcoin though, might be the most stable currency you have for a while, at least when the pound is worth less than the dollar you'll be happy that forgien tourists speaking strange languages, arrive to see Britain on the cheap, a country that was in doing pretty average before joining the EU in 1973.

The issue is some altcoins are just fucking fun, I mean for investment sure buy Bitcoin all day but right now my hobby is building little single board computer clusters and mining Verium right now. The ROI is super long but it's goofey good fun.

Do not confuse fun and goofy altcoins (like DOGE & Co.) with pure scams (like Bitconeeeeeeect)

Any color you like as long as it's Sauron.  

Thank you, sir.

Absolutely awesome!  Thank you.

I am glad you know the UK so well.  However, you obviously are not quite well-informed enough to know that the Tories (in power since 2010) are hardly what most people would call radical left, unless you think Margaret Thatcher was a socialist.

You should also know the TV license has always been entirely to fund the BBC, through all of its outlets online, on TV and on radio which are free and carry no advertising or sponsorship.  Most people in the UK rather like the BBC.  Even if they do moan about it, they would not see it gone by any stretch of the imagination, nor do they prefer endless ad breaks, as some countries seem to love.

OK, maybe the UK should let kids buy knives and stab each other (which has been an issue) or maybe you think less of them would be stabbed if they were armed? 

The thing is the UK worries about knives as it really doesn't have anything like a fine popular tradition of mass shootings to worry about, is it doing that wrong too?

I got my first knife when I was like, six. Went out and cut up some innocent plants. Cut my finger, still have a scar. Every kid should do the same and every adult should have the right to be armed if so desired.

[bitcoinPsycho]

the (democratically elected and accountable) uk parliament should decide that and if we don't like what they do we can vote them out . that is the point.

But then people would have to be held accountable for their own actions, that's a mind set that has been crumbling for years. Could you imagine a world where someone is blamed for their choices and not the availability of the tools or weapons used and innocent responsible adults aren't then forced to have to change their lifestyle of hobbies for the individual who is a fuckup?

I doubt the future of people being held responsible for their actions good or bad is the future we will have.

The world is completely fucked up. Can we at least be rich, please?
