Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

I will say though that they make some valid points , such as China was a very large factor in the huge upswing in the value of bitcoin. It is true that Chinese people were (and I believe still are) buying up more coins than anywhere else in the world. With that said, this article is obviously a propaganda peace and quite trashy imo. |

Maybe there should be a "no China news day" on the forums? Their puppet government acts more and more like North Korea. Some countries are just doomed, let them swim in their puddle hate until they drown.

China was responsible for a good chunk of the rise, but China's involvement arguably encouraged the US government to recognise and work with bitcoin for fear that China would reap the benefits otherwise.

Replace China with the U.S. or almost any government for that matter. |

I advise you to stop reading after the "Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme masquerading as a futuristic currency" line. |

Brilliant stuff, fearless leaders! Bitcoin is a vast foreign conspiracy against the Chinese people. Seems more obvious that you and your kleptocratic. corrupt, gov't elite are a vast conspiracy against the Chinese people. China will be left in the dust as innovation is crushed under the boot of paranoid totalitarianism.

Calling bitcoin a ponzi scheme only proves that the dude that is doing the name calling does not even know what a ponzi scheme is.
Bitcoin can not be a ponzi scheme for the simply fact that owning bitcoins does not generate any sort of income. One can only run a ponzi scheme with something that is supposed to generate some sort of income. like interest , dividend or whatever and then use the money of new investors into your stock or bond or fund or whatever to pay the fictitious income and it will of course all collapse once you can not find any new investors. Nothing like this is even possible with bitcoin.
It is possible that after the "entire world" has adopted bitcoin, that the price of bitcoin will not rise anymore, but it will not cause a collapse of bitcoin, like when a ponzi scheme can not find new investors anymore.
It is just malicious dumbass FUD to scare the sheep, that all this is
