How is good news that BTC mining is banned somewhere or that Facebook is banned cryptocurrency ads and Google will do the same?For the average user this would be considered as bad news.Also nothing connected with Wall Street is not good for cryptocurrency,their philosophy related to money and world order based on centralized currencies is exactly the opposite of what it represents BTC.
Your last two links are identical and some things are changed from Jan 1, 2018 especially regarding BTC cards,BitWala card (Visa) is suspended for months as well as all others.Still it is nice list to see where to spend BTC.
Can't speak for OP or the content of the news, but any sort of retardation of the mining industry's growth, which I feel is still too fast, motivated by quick profits and outpacing actual adoption, is somewhat of good news to me. Think mining needs to be brought down from its highly centralised, highly corporate monopolies.
On FB and Google, the crypto-related ads I've seen have very, very little to do with actual crypto development. Half of the ads are outright scams and HYIPs, the other half ICOs for the most dubious projects ever to have graced my browser pages.
But yes, on the same page with you re Wall St. Big banks and big money loving crypto just stirs something really foul-tasting.
Anyway, loving this FUDing. Helps me amass more.
