When WhatsApp added end-to-end encryption to every conversation for its billion users two years ago, the mobile messaging giant significantly raised the bar for the privacy of digital communications worldwide. But one of the tricky elements of encryption—and even trickier in a group chat setting—has always been ensuring that a secure conversation reaches only the intended audience, rather than some impostor or infiltrator. And according to new research from one team of German cryptographers, flaws in WhatsApp make infiltrating the app's group chats much easier than ought to be possible.

Secure messaging apps have grown in popularity as consumers seek protection from hackers and surveillance, but end-to-end encryption faces an uncertain future in the UK.

Home secretary Amber Rudd has called for technology companies to build back doors into their encrypted content for security services to use when they require access in the fight against terrorism. And prime minister Theresa May talked at the World Economic Forum summit in Davos, Switzerland about the need for a balance between privacy and security – in short, undermining the security of encrypted messaging apps.

I totally agree with you

Of course, providing security when communicating on the Internet is of great importance. At the moment I'm not very attentive to security. But after carefully reading this discussion, I may revise my attitude to this issue. 

This product is very good and deserves my attention, but I will not hurry yet. I will study the information carefully.

I don’t know if this answers your question but recently Malaysia’s central bank has started to set guidelines and regulations regarding bitcoins. So I can see it will be declared legal in Malaysia.

Re: Bitcoin bubble

One can see clear parallels between the bubbles they've studied and Bitcoin's current rally. Bubbles tend to be driven either by new technologies (like railroads in 1840s Britain or the Internet in the 1990s) or by new financial innovations (like the financial engineering that produced the 2008 financial crisis). Bitcoin, of course, is both a new technology and a major financial innovation.

A lot of bubbles historically involve some kind of new financial technology the effects of which people can't really predict.These new financial innovations create enthusiasm at a speed that is greater than people are able to reckon with all the consequences.

Maybe we're seeing classic signs that often occur near the end of a bubble. The end of a bubble often comes with "a high amount of volatility and a lot of excitement."

Re: Buying Drugs with Bitcoin ?

Unfortunately, Bitcoin hasn't eaten much market share from the US dollar with arms trading and terrorism but it has been slowly eating away market share in these categories:
Drugs, gambling, prostitution, ransomeware, money laundering , capital flight.

This makes bitcoin somewhat of a blackmarket ETF where state governments heavily subsidize the value and premium of bitcoin by introducing regulation and laws which make bitcoin a valuable tool to route around these restrictions.

Therefore the best way to destroy much of the value of bitcoin is to make everything legalized and for all governments to become anarchistic. Thus Bitcoin is a hedge against anarchy and if you think governments and laws will continue to exist bitcoin has a bright future ahead.

Re: The advantages of bitcoin
by

on 06/12/2017, 00:54:06 UTC
Since there are multiple redundant copies of the transactions database, no one can seize bitcoins. The most someone can do is force the user, by other means, to send the the bitcoins to someone else. This means that governments can’t freeze someone’s wealth, and thus users of Bitcoins will have complete freedom to do anything they want with their money.

Unless users publicize their wallet addresses publicly, no one can trace transactions back to them. No one, other than the wallet owners, will know how many Bitcoins they have. Even if the wallet address was publicized, a new wallet address can be easily generated.

Once Bitcoins are sent, the transaction cannot be reversed. Since the ownership address of Bitcoins will be changed to the new owner, once it is changed, it is impossible to revert. Since only the new owner has the associated private key, only he/she can change ownership of the coins. This ensures that there is no risk involved when receiving Bitcoins.

Re: Ucoin Cash is a scam !!!

If you have a little research about ICO platform similar to Ucoincash, which kind of MLM program. They not usually introduce their team at the beginning time or even the hole time. But there are some ICO has succeeded without showing their workers (such as BCC, REC, HXT,...).
But in my opinion, Ucoincash also very risk for investors so maybe need more research about it before you want to join in!They are offering 31 million coins total from what I've read. Who are the owners-they are hidden on Whois.com. Where is there actual location? Who is their development team-anyone know?
So lots of people are jumping on this, anyone have any real info on this ICO, or is it just warm fuzzy's to see what they're hoping to do?
I don't see any merchants yet or network to do anything with their coin, once they finally get it out there.
And the website has a lot of different problems, the inability to register, enter your office or put / withdraw money.

Re: Who can destroy Bitcoin ?

If no one mines bitcoins anymore, nobody can exchange them. Miners basically get a commission because they use their processing power to process transacrions between bitcoin wallets. So, if no one is mining anymore, which is unlikely for now, you will actually destroy the currency. Even if it is still worth something, you won't be able to exchange it, so it is like destroying it

Here are also some scenarios - although unlikely, still theoretically possible:

1-You break the cryptography behind the Proof of Work algorithm. It’s a mathematically sound approach, as it’s mathematically possible but just very, very, very hard.In simple terms: You can fake the complete chain if you manage to re-create a new chain which is longer than the real chain , which is completely sound to all the mathematical constraints for blocks and transactions, in the time it takes the other miners to create the next valid block. Potentially possible, for example if you build a quantom computer in your garage and work out an algorithm which is able to do that.

2-A massive restriction on global scale: Governments all over the world restrict the contact points with regular money and make it very, very hard to exchange Bitcoins. Which would make it useless for transactions outside the network.

Re: Russia says BTC will never be legalised - do you think we'll see a knock on?

To combat illegal transactions, Russia in 2018 can recognize bitcoin and other crypto-currencies.

 How the government says "At every moment the state should know who is on both sides of the financial chain. If there is a transaction, the people who conduct it must understand who they are buying from and to whom they are selling, just as with banking operations "
 Having exposed certain requirements to crypto-currencies, it is possible to solve the problem of money laundering. Now transactions are usually carried out on the principle of pseudo-anonymity, when the payment parameters are known, but the sender and receiver are not known. Technologically, everything can be deployed in the opposite direction - when the sender and receiver are known, but the amount is unknown.

 Thus, the only condition for the legalization of bitcoin in Russia, will be a complete rejection of the anonymity of the conducted transactions.

Hi, there are two ways to get bitcoin-

    1-BUY- Buy bitcoins from the best exchanges who offer best rates and also are reliable.

    2-Earn- You can earn lot of bitcoins through mining. Though solo mining is not profitable hence, people are opting cloud mining which not only makes you financially free but also, helps your near and dear ones in earning passive incomes. But, beware of the scams emerging every day.

As for mining, In my opinion mining has become not so much in demand or, if properly expressed, it has ceased to bring that profit that was before

Re: Is Bitcoin money?

Definetelly YES!

Bitcoin is money for the Internet. It is a scarce digital commodity used as money by millions around the world. People buy coffee with Bitcoin at local shops. Others get paid in Bitcoin and use it to shop online. Friends use it to settle with whoever paid for dinner. Workers send Bitcoin back home to help family, regardless of where they live.

Since its start in 2009, Bitcoin has provided an alternative to traditional government-issued money. No single government, corporation, or nation controls Bitcoin. There is no need for a Bitcoin bank. People store Bitcoin in software called a wallet, which is available for almost any device.

Re: Decided to invest more into crypto

As you know, buying any asset is necessary when it is cheap. Is it worth buying a crypto currency after it has been growing steadily for six months?

Any trader in the classical financial markets will say that it is not worth it. And will be right about securities, commodity futures and currency pairs of the Forex market.

But the situation with crypto-currencies at this stage has features that make it possible to assert that now it is not too late to invest in them. And we should not regret the opportunities that were not used before, but use existing ones.

In the coming years, a huge number of new investors will enter this market. All of them will seek to buy a crypto currency. What do you think will happen to her course? Especially when you consider that the flagship of the industry - Bitcoin - has already produced and sold out 16 million coins out of 21 million, which can be released at all. That is, the offer is limited, the deferred demand is huge due to the attractiveness of this asset for a huge audience.

The opinions of experts from various companies from Wall Street were divided. Some believe that the crypto currency expects a bright future, others - that it is a bubble and deception.
Bitcoin literally changes the key concepts in the financial world. Historically, people considered a value asset something that can be owned and that can be sold at a predictable (more or less accurately) price, but bitcoin is also a digital asset. Bitcoin today is like Facebook, when he used only 10 million people, imagine what will happen when the number of users exceeds a billion?

However, each value asset, which humanity knew to this day, besides the function of preserving value or value, had other functions. For example, you can buy something for money. In order for crypto currencies to become a value asset, you need them to become useful as something else.

We can say that this crypto currency is worthy of attention not only to the private user, but also to the potential investor. All the advantages and tendencies to further strengthening are obvious. If nothing else is taken into account, Bitcoin has a perspective, and she is quite comforting. But there is one problem - it's relations with state bodies.

Far from anywhere is such a favor to her, as in Japan. After all, Bitcoin is the exact opposite of the national currencies. The most terrible thing that can happen is the establishment of control over this monetary system. If this happens, it's possible that the Bitcoins will not disappear, but they will be completely "wrong" Bitcoins.

Re: Is Bitcoin a currency or asset?

Bitcoin is easiest to call a kind of hybrid asset with an evolving legal framework. Digital mode: features, decentralized nature, anonymity, high transaction speed, reliability, lack of regulators. If to look practically, today bitcoin is used mainly as an investment, even rather a speculative asset. One can observe attempts to create its currency functionality, but so far this format of using crypto currency has not gained much popularity, since its price is too unstable. As the preservation of the cost of bitcoin, and even today it is impossible to use.

Re: How to kill Bitcoin?

First: all stock exchanges must be banned. While this is very difficult. Exchange a lot. They are scattered all over the world. There, where one exchange disappears, three or four new ones appear. Exchange, as well as crypto-currencies, open up on increasing. Certainly not all of them will live to old age. But the fact that there are many of them is a fact.

Second: you need to ban people. Suppose you destroyed the stock exchanges. But here a different problem emerges. People can act without exchanges, they can exchange goods directly: Fiat for bitkoyn, bitkoyn for fiat, goods for bitkoyn, etc. It is impossible to control 8 billion people.

Third: the elimination of the Internet. This measure may also prove ineffective. First of all, a lot of people will protest. Secondly, the Internet can be made extra-state or independent of decisions from above. Thirdly, even if the Internet is liquidated, it is not a fact that you are eliminating cryptonyms. Cryptography does not need to have Internet access. People can create Bitcoin 2.0 out of the Internet.

Fourth: buying all the crypto currency. Also it will not work, because it is known that even one bitkoyna suffices for the functioning of the world housekeeper. Let them buy it. It still does not work. Bitcoin is not gold. It can not just be taken and taken away, or braked at the border.

Fifth: counterfeit bitcoins through the liquidation of miners. This option is possible, if someone has the power of the network in their hands. Since the network is decentralized, it will be very difficult to find all the miners. But this, in my opinion, is the most realistic option, because the miners become larger and now they are easier to find. But even if you eliminate all the miners, this will not solve the problem. The discoverers can simply release another bitcoin. Well, you banned digital "gold", and what has changed? People switched to digital "silver"
