This certainly can't hurt Bitcoin adoption. When I first tried to buy bitcoins, it was extremely difficult without using slow and expensive bank transfers to some questionable foreign fantasy-game exchange. For most people, things have improved immeasurably but for those who live in places without BTC ATMs or exchanges with same-day fiat deposits, buying can still be slow and expensive. This should help many people to get started. |

What happened to the glowing ignore button??? I have so many on ignore I can not keep up with them. Sometimes I click unignore to see if I had ignored on accident. If the button still glowed it could be assumed it was for good reason without having to see the garbage again. PLEASE bring back the glowing ignore button.
It got removed with the ability to set avatars - a real shame considering the all time high number of trolls around here.. |

It got removed with the ability to set avatars - a real shame considering the all time high number of trolls around here.. I'm all in favor of the re-institution of newbie jail. A month of posting only in the noob and off-topic sub-forums and 6 months before starting threads would seem about right. Bringing back the colored ignore button probably wouldn't help much though. Hardcore trolls don't care. Wasn't it ElectricMucus who used to brag that "if your ignore button isn't glowing red, you're doing it wrong"? Of bigger concern is that real trolls might ignore honest posters who call them out, just to turn their ignore buttons red in an attempt to discredit them. Just a thought. |

Maybe do like I believe Fonsie suggested and have a proof of stake. It could be done just in speculation where you have no business if you have no stake. Enough trolls buying in to troll would surely cause a ramp up.  |

I remember when the internet was considered to be just a vehicle for pornography. I read somewhere at the time that 70% of all web pages were porn. Then it was called a haven for copyrighted-content "pirates" with torrents representing the lion's share of internet traffic. Haters will always find a scapegoat. |

remember, even if currently about 800k $ get invested into Bitcoin, it will only cover the inflation. You have to add every merchant instantly selling + regular sellers. That's a hell of selling pressure every day. That's the main reason we will most likely stay in this bear market until something drastic happens. Like a Fiat Currency Crashing (€, $ or ¥). If nothing magical happens, the next halving of the mining reward would at least take out some pressure so the currency could grow in value. |

That is the dumbest think I have heard. Do you think, you go to your friend and tell him about altcoins, then he would know about them ? |

There was an influx of money into their country ..its pretty much made them de-peg. I'm basing this off one article I read though |
