Going according to mining pools this could be true, but apparently also China's banks are loading up on Bitcoin in their reserves (no confirmation on that) Does someone know more on that matter?

If the hard wallet is lost, what can be done? This problem cannot be solved.

You have the possibility of restoring your private keys with a list of 25 passwords (ledger nano s)

There are a lot of unsophisticated investors in the space, but then a lot of those bought BTC years ago as they saw the potential and believed in it and they are still holding on to their coins

Quantum computing will be a big game changer for POW coins as well as all others and measures will need to be taken. IOTA claims it is resistant to quantum computing attacks which I would doubt. Also, the implementation of privacy coins like monero to maintain its anonymity against quantum computing will be an interesting thing to see.

Re: GDPR, Data privacy and Bounties

I think it is about time that we address a serious issue we see with most bounty campaigns.
Privacy!!

 All your data is available in a spreadsheet for everyone!! Isn't that a major data breach? Recently I am getting lot of spam mails and also some people impersonate me and join airdrops etc with my e mail address. This is all because our information is publicly available in spreadsheets in almost every bounty we participate.

You might have heard about GDPR - General data protection regulation. It is a regulation that requires businesses to protect the personal data and privacy of EU citizens for transactions that occur within EU member states. So businesses that operated within EU or doing any kind of interactions with EU citizens it is a must to be GDPR compliance and if fail to comply can lead to serious fines. This is currently for EU only. But I hope it will be a thing for every citizen of the world.

So I think it is time now for bounty campaigns to think serious about our data as well. I have only seen very few bounty campaigns where they didn't show the email address in the spreadsheet. I hope many bounty managers will take that initiative in the future.

Fully agree, I am involved in the ICO space and would like to say that more and more projects ask us if they are GDPR compliant and what rules they need to follow, so fortunately there are some projects taking this very seriously for good reason

POLY - platform for security tokens (I see big potential there)
AION - 3rd Generation blockchain
ELF - cloud storage solution
Zcash - cause I like it and I think everyone should have one coin in the anonymity space in their portfolio

I prefer the coins listed on Binance and that they are not getting randomly delisted like Bittrex but I still trade on Bittrex as they have a full trading API through coinigy which is still my favourite way of trading

Will Proof of Work coins die with the latest cost estimate of a 51% attack?
by

on 30/05/2018, 07:20:36 UTC
With the latest developments of Bitcoin Gold and Verge falling victim to the famous 51% attack I would like to share how much it actually costs to take over a specific network (according to this article less than 500$ for $EMC)

Let me know if you think these figures are accurate as I read 1 to 2 billion for BTC.

I think that is a bit hard especially with the constant market cap of 300 to 400 Bil. We would need some new money in the market and a little less FUD

Re: Can somebody steal your btc?

The private key represents your proof of ownership, the coins will never be directly on your wallet, they will always be on the blockchain but you have control over them with your private key. If someone steals the private key then they can steal your BTC.
