Good news from USA and Japan.

[stripykitteh]

Usa is selling seized Bitcoins money and converting it back to usd, this shows they are interested in the coin and will be happy to allow price hikes happen cause they'll profit a lot from sales. I feel usa shall sooner or later back Bitcoins indirectly.

While a Japanese company has decided to pay part salary in Bitcoins, now how many of us wish we're part of that company don't we? Their motto to spread Bitcoins and gain more knowledge on its working that's good right for the crypto king.

The people in the government is making money on Bitcoin and they want to have it banned, what a weird situation we have here.

It is really a good news to all of us. Especially to those who holds bitcoin for a long time will definitely will gain profit again. Just still hold all their bitcoin for them to have good profit in the future once USA and Japan do that.

if there is a country other than japan and america that do so it will be very profitable. japan has started paying employees with bitcoin and it is great for bitcoin development and introducing cryptocurrency in the world.

It would be nice to read in the news. I have a feeling that the people that get paid in Bitcoin will not be trying to keep their coins because they have bills to pay.

[Pursuer]

I wouldn't really call that a good news to be honest. but generally speaking the good news regarding bitcoin and  the growing adoption of it is coming from all around the world these days. it is inevitable to accept bitcoin's power and its growth.

so far people are mostly occupied with the price only and think about how they can make more profit. but in reality bitcoin will get stronger because it is a decentralized currency and I am glad that more people are figuring it out these days and start thinking about how they can benefit from using bitcoin, and we are talking about benefit apart from the fiat profit you can gain.

Those coins were stolen from an individual named Aaron Michael Shamo. He is accused of illegally selling oxycodone and alprazolam, but I don't regard that as a crime. So what the Americans are doing is not something very ethical. They should return the coins to its rightful owner, or wait until the verdict comes out against Aaron Shamo.

without this good news bitcoin have massive demand and can add more users next year.

Now all try to earn from this free technology and may take risk and mining also.

The US government has no choice but to adapt bitcoin because bitcoin become stronger and in many views this is the future of monetary. people opted to use bitcoin because it is decentralized in  nature were your privacy is protected. while fiat money is controlled by security of exchange were there is a limitation in terms territorial or countries currencies system, while Bitcoin is no boundary it acceptable world wide. can you imagine how fast this currency growing this the results of common understanding among investors who understand the essence of decentralization.

[labuan]

I am just looking forward to this good news in my country, how my country can legalize bitcoin, making it as official payment. so far bitcoin has not been fully legalized 

[Daveeoff]

Honestly in Bitcoin's current state I would still prefer to get my salary in fiat currency rather in BTC.

[aizen10]

if this true, obviously its a very good news to heard/read to day, because theres a huge of pump waiting to us sooner, so more and more price hike will surly come, and i think this is the beginning of the wide spreading acceptance of bitcoin worldwide, cant wait to confirm/see this news happening.

[ronremsey25]

I wish that it will be like this here in my country. And is this is true, I bet it will affect the demand in the market and the price will pump.Sooner or later the value of Bitcoin will rise again much higher we never seen before.

[beverly788113]

There is a lot of good news from bitcoin. However, there is only one bad news. Korea banned bitcoin. But that does not make the bitcoin run out. I believe that bitcoin is gaining a lot of attention in the world

[bennie4]

Exactly, the Korean ban on bitcoin has no effect on bitcoin. My country more and more people pay attention to bitcoin.

[Shamie1002]

Hi,

I think these are only weak signals... We are far from a world in which you can use bitcoin on a daily basis but.. Indeed, the community is growing and even traditionnal institutions are trying to grasp something for themselves...

However, I would not be too happy here.. USA voted here the end of "neutral" Internet, which means that from now on, if you pay more, your content can reach customers more quicky. This means that such forum may be harder to reach, it may be harder to collaborate on t if your IP is in the US.

So beware of too great expectations!

Then it's a bit of a bad news to US bitcoin users? Sorry to say.
But I am quite happy about how these two countries take action of the present situation.
I will be happy even if the prices won't move within weeks. It already rose so much that even a whole year increase can be covered.

I think this will calm some users. Maybe not too profitable to traders if prices would not be too volatile for a while.

They are selling bitcoin because the price has sky rocketed and they could earn a substantial amount of profit with the coins they have confiscated throughout years and i am not sure which raid gave them these coins as they have already sold a lot of coins earlier.

While a Japanese company has decided to pay part salary in Bitcoins, now how many of us wish we're part of that company don't we? Their motto to spread Bitcoins and gain more knowledge on its working that's good right for the crypto king.

I will pass if they are planning to give my salary in bitcoin when the price is this high,i would have gladly taken this route when the price was below thousand and not when the price has sky rocketed.

This is really good news. But if the US abolishes the regulation of the SEC, this will greatly affect the growth of the Crypto-currency. And if China allows to conduct ISO - also good. Perhaps this news is just waiting for its time.

[RamonBTC]

I do believe that it is early to judge about USA move at this news but to include bitcoin in japans salary system then that is even known to be happen as this country has good relationships with cryptocurrency since then. This will also be the best way to introduce and give those with less knowledge about it to learn.

[cipher-x_09]

Wow, talk about huge way of accepting with these recent evenets which is happening around the world regarding the acceptance of bitcoin not necessarily that I mean to say that people have not yet accepted bitcoin, what I mean by these the process and other flows in which bitcoij can help us is generally being accepted by the people more importantly by the government.

[Digitalbitcoin]

Yes its really great news for whole world. As USA and Japan both are Tier 1 type countries which are already depends upon high-tech technologies. Also USA and Japan are more famous among world for their technological activities and performances.

This will really help to world to aware about Bitcoins. Japan's move towards salary payments in bitcoin can offer users rights to make transaction in bitcoin, and also be monitored by federal governance will give more mobility and freedom to users.
