Not a very elaborate thought to understand.
however, as mentioned in another post, it is not clear that 23andme allows sample aggregation and 'pseudonyms'.
other than that, an OK idea.

There are other private sequencing firms, not to mention the original, and IMO still the best, Bryan Sykes Oxford Ancestors.

Quite a bit more expensive ~$400 as I recall, but the other options have...umm...other ways of monetizing their activities.

That's an ancestry firm, basically just to establish paternity (whether the father is the "real" father, etc.). it will not provide data on cancer susceptibility, etc.

From what I gathered so far if you want to do the 'whole genome' works, you should ask your doctor to transmit doctor's orders to one of the few centers which do the 'whole genome sequencing'. The caveat in my knowledge so far is how to pay for this work without insurance being involved. I will get this answer sometime next week. The cost with insurance is about $5K with most of it paid by insurance, but, of course, they'll go for it only if such test is needed.
According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Why Most Educated People Fail to Understand Bitcoin

Misir Mahmudov, a widely-followed and respected bitcoin (BTC) analyst, has argued that “most educated people fail to appreciate bitcoin because they only specialize in one field.” In order to truly understand how bitcoin works, Mahmudov, a financial economics student at Columbia University, recommends having some grasp of basic computer science and economics concepts.

First proposed in a whitepaper published in November 2008 by its pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, the Bitcoin protocol specifies how an electronic peer-to-peer (P2P) cash system should work. For the first time, modern cryptographic techniques were applied to create what’s now a multi-billion dollar experiment in monetary theory.

https://www.cryptoglobe.com/latest/2019/03/why-most-educated-people-fail-to-understand-bitcoin/
I agree. I have no higher education, never cared much for school, but I like to know stuff so I know a little about a lot of things. Politics, history, economy, math, psychology and being a computer nerd all add up. If you lack any one of them you won't get it. Without history you won't know just how bad economies and states can get, without politics you won't know where we currently are, without psychology you won't understand what drives people, without computer knowledge you won't trust the system, without economy you won't even understand something so basic as supply and demand. Sometimes broad knowledge is what it takes.

You obviously do not understand bitcoin if you can't figure out it's not possible to create a decentralized digital currency because transaction validators are always designed to centralize.  The variables that cause this are numerous, compounding in nature, and not possible to magically get rid of.
I understand enough psychology to see you have some kind of emotional motivation. Which is fine. But it would be healthier for you if you could admit it. To yourself if nothing else.

Yea, it's called not wanting to live in a complete dystopian Chinese social credit score system, because that's the only possible evolution of designed to centralize, non-fungible shitcoins.  Which is why I support physical metals instead.

After more than 5 years engaging in bitcoin threads, you have seem to STILL have no fucking clue regarding what bitcoin is?  To you, bitcoin is an attempt at magic.  By your own amorphous words, what a proven dumb-fuck!!!!   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

But the point is, it doesn't change.

You are not really making any kind of meaningful point, which makes you seem like a troll/shill, even attempting to give you some benefit of the doubt.  

First of all, bitcoin is not like those other events that you describe, and even the statements for each picture seems quite non-representative of any kind of overall sentiment, even within each of the concepts.

Second, your finding meaning in that meme seems to show that you don't seem to sufficiently understand market waves, which are natural with any kind of asset, including bitcoin, so if you are going to assert that bitcoin is currently in a bubble, that is a different story than what your meme represents as 2017 (which would have been the top of the most recent BTC price surge).  Bitcoin is currently 80% down from that top.  Your subsequent post seems to be asserting that bitcoin is still in a bubble.. which seems to be a pretty bold and even detached from reality assertion.

Third, if you want to discuss some bitcoin related ideas and you have some doubts about bitcoin, then there is nothing wrong with that, as long as you are a genuine person rather than a troll or a shill.  Tell us a bit about your bitcoin and/or investing experiences, and let's attempt to see if you have any kind of genuine thoughts that you are able to offer here.... We are not dumb-dumbs in these parts, as your meme seems to want to project on this audience.  To me, it seems that you are not starting out on a good foot with that bullshit meme nonsense, but you might be able to recover, perhaps?  Anyhow, do you really believe that level of stupid-ass superficiality and really old talking-points about "bitcoin's a bubble" phony baloney?  That is so 2015.....

Regardless,  secure private encryption that protects user identity of some sort is desperately needed in this market. While possibly only tangentially related I found this tweet disturbing. I think the misuse and abuse of these data sets that are being compiled be it your genome or your breeding status is a given.

In China, they have a shortage of women. So an organization started to build a database to start registering over 1,8 million women with all kinds of details like phone numbers, addresses, education, location, ID number, marital status, and a ”BreedReady" status?

I bet that he hasn't even read that image (completely) carefully. Poor guy probably thought that it's some sort of bullish (though it's not bullish, it's only bullshi*) statement and Wall Observers will probably merit it.

Make good use of your senses before you post again, @katrinmi! Wink

I´m playing with the fractal chart and its kinda creepy how similar the patterns are now compared to the bottom of 2015.
In the weekly chart with MA 20 50 100 200, having 3 MA crossings behind us it looks like we are at May 18 2015, touching the 20 MA.
Following that scenario, then likely a correction is coming down towards 200 MA ($3400-$3500) and then soon a bullish move up to visit the 50 MA ,
possibly around $5600 ?  Smiley

I agree.  Except everyone is looking at the same charts as you and front running the fractal, so the dips are being absorbed.

Since there is no insider trading regulation, my coworkers frequently purchased tokens when they're about to release good news and dumped before they released bad news.
My ICO company didn't sell their ICO funds and lost 90% of their $20m+ raised and had to lay off most of the team. They still haven't announced to their investors that most of the team was laid off.
The saddest part of this whole thing is that there are still early investors unaware of everything that happened behind the scenes and are still defending the company on Telegram - saying that the company will deliver. I wish I could reach out to them and tell them to exit and gtfo before the price reaches zero.
someone's about to launch an 'all-new' type of ipo, maybe radically open...
