Apple adds BTC symbol to its icon sett.

When does this start from?

More info will be released during Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference.

They will transform your phone into a hardware wallet for example, which is good for mass adoption.

AFTER Samsung, who have already done it.

Yes, but with a totally different level of security.

Guys...

Earlier today I was walking on the street when I saw the innards of a USB stick on the pavement. It had been lying there for a while, had been stepped on by passers-by several times, but looked like it could be readable. I saw it, walked past it, and kept walking away...

Until it hit me: what if this little thing lying on the ground contains the private key to a massive BTC wallet? I thought, naaah, no way... But I couldn't escape the thought. I went back and picked it up!!! Tried to read it just now, but no dice. It was as DEAD as a cockr0ach smashed by a 400oz gold bar!

Has this ever happened to you? With USB sticks or old HDs/PCs? I mean, the urge to check the contents for keys?

Be careful where you plug things into.

Might be having a good roi, throwing around usb sticks with a BTC sign on them. Including some malware targeting common wallets.

I'm paranoid, I know...

You should be.

Or that could just be what they want you to think!

There's a good story in the comments below the TV chart (not sure if its true or not, but that's besides the point):

This sell off was allegedly done by a single whale selling (25k?) BTC on Coinbase while shorting on Bitmex. The whale is likely now buying up at lower prices.

From a philosophical viewpoint, Why is a single person allowed to manipulate BTC and steal $100 million from the pockets of investors? What happened to KYC? (not to be confused with KFC).

What is the point of having customers on Coinbase and BitStamp fill out forms, verifying who they are, if one of them can come in and hold the place up for $100 million whenever they feel like it?

Nice, thanks; I'd missed that then, so it came a bit out of the blue. The 'local cash' ban is not mentioned then. I guess they're panicked.

They could have simply disabled the local bitcoins feature for Finnish addresses/customers. This draconian choice is probably preparation for some more significant "institutional" turn. As in: government friendly. I stand by my opinion: Bisq and other decentralized markets are the way to go for the future.

Yes..that is the answer..lets just limit everyone's account to $10k trades per month...

I dont condone market 'manipulation' but this sure seems like a slippery slope.

The market has cooled to say the least. Currently trading at just below $7.9k with more consolidation likely. #dyor

Why they just don't go away from Europe? Or sell the website to a non european company?

I can't blame the guy. If I had no decency I would also try to bank on all those idiot.

Considering doing some small gambling there trying to catch the first pump.

[rebal15]

what is this "What percentage of your net worth is made up of crypto? " 
the next question is "what and how many cryptos do you own?"

[rebal15]

Was $9K the top for a while? Kind of an ugly failure.....and now price has melted back into the previous range. Never a good sign. Maybe it's time to go back to $6K like masterluc was predicting.

Yes, the parabolic rise has been called off for now.

Hi McAfee, when 100k$.
