Because the media, and legacy finances including banking, and 99% of the political establishment are all on the left. We are on the right. That's why.

It's not so simple. For example, this guy seems to be on the right (says he's Reagan White House Alum):

And yet, he's very anti-bitcoin:

Not all conservatives are pro-bitcoin. They too can be immensely stupid.
Anyway people's opinions about bitcoin are neither here nor there.
It carries on regardless.

Just curious, do you think that’s correct? Most of us are on the right here? Personally I lean slightly towards far right.

Big investors sue 16 banks in U.S. over currency market rigging

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A group of large institutional investors including BlackRock Inc and Allianz SE’s Pacific Investment Management Co has sued 16 major banks, accusing them of rigging prices in the roughly $5.1 trillion-a-day foreign exchange market.

The banks being sued are: Bank of America, Barclays, BNP Paribas, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Japan’s MUFG Bank, Royal Bank of Canada, Royal Bank of Scotland, Societe Generale, Standard Chartered and UBS.

The plaintiffs in Wednesday’s lawsuit accused the banks of violating U.S. antitrust law by conspiring from 2003 to 2013 to rig currency benchmarks including the WM/Reuters Closing Rates for their own benefit by sharing confidential orders and trading positions.

This manipulation was allegedly done through chat rooms with such names as “The Cartel,” “The Mafia” and “The Bandits’ Club,” through tactics with such names as “front running,” “banging the close,” “painting the screen” and “taking out the filth.”

“By colluding to manipulate FX prices, benchmarks, and bid/ask spreads, defendants restrained trade, decreased competition, and artificially increased prices, thereby injuring plaintiffs,” the 221-page complaint said.

Yeah, but most leftists (Hairy is an honorable exception here) will keep waiting forever till Bitcoin is fed to them for free and/or complaining that some other people already have them and they don't.

Exceptions exist. It shouldn't be necessary to keep saying that over and over and fucking over. Averages matter. Also that guy is old.

That... is still some variation of right?

Of course yeah. I was just wondering if everybody here leans right?
I hate most lefties, they’re embarrassing. Fuck the poor & needy!

May the rich become richer & the poor become poorer.

Colorado and California Just Elected Pro-Bitcoin Governors

Following the 2018 midterm elections, the U.S. will see two new pro-Bitcoin governors sworn into office.

Jared Polis (D-CO) and Gavin Newsom (D-CA) both won out against their respective Republican contenders last night, November 6, 2018. While their campaign points and platforms were capitalized by a progressive agenda, their favorable attitudes toward cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology have caught the crypto community’s attention.

Sitting in the airport waiting for my plane. Maybe a few weeks in 30C+ weather will help me shake this cold I've been fighting for the last week or so. Looking forward to 16 lovely new dental implants.

Thank you Bitcoin.

Can anyone solve this Bitmex mystery for me: I longed at 6455,5 and market closed my position at 6471. Now as far as calculations go, market orders with 0,075% fee mean I only had to cover a spread of minimum 10 dollars. And yet I made a loss? This is the first time it has happened to me, every other time I did the exact same thing I would always cover my fees when exiting at 10+ dollars.



And before you say settlement fee: It was perpetual xtb/usd
