Re: [ANN] Expanse (EXP) - Fair Launch, No ICO, Community DAO, based on Ethereum

How is this more fair than Ethereum?   11 MM reserve vs 12 MM?

It's strange that you guys paint the ico as something negative.  ICO investors take a lot of risk.  At current Ethereum price that'ss less than a 3x return.  I personally would not take that kind of risk for 3x with funds locked up for a year and a half.  Instead you guys use the code and claim it is somehow more fair?  Also, your 11MM reserve is much more of a percentage than ETH.  If you go POS after a year like ETH, most of the coins will belong to you.  Kinda like Ripple.

Anyway, I'm glad you guys are here as competition is good-- It' just asinine to call it more fair.

Re: [2014-10-13] Rumor: FinCEN Will Act Against U.S. Based Crypto-Currency Companies

I believe that anytime you issue something that pays a dividend, you are subject to SEC regulation-- even if it is non-dollar based.

I see how this will affect swarm, but not Bitcoin.

Re: MasterCoin: New Protocol Layer Starting From “The Exodus Address”

I've been reading up on it.  So, it essentially inserts data streams into the bitcoin blockchain. 

Question-- Why does it need a new coin for this? 

Sorry for the noob question.

Coinbase.com and miner fees?

I'm trying to send coins out of coinbase.com.  My last transaction broadcast fine, but took over an hour to get into a block because they didn't include a fee.  I see no option to include a fee when I send funds.  Am I missing something, or are they just not useful as a wallet?

Price is over $400 in China, but $345 on bitstamp.  WTF? 

The Chinese can get an $8 RC car for my kid to my doorstep and make profit, and we can't export a bitcoin?

Not to be confused with Funding Circle, which scored 37MM, and is also lead by Accel Partners. 

Anyway, I hope they make an actual exchange and not just a fullfiller like coinbase.

The third generation is indeed staking their claims.

Re: Hardly any 'bubble' talk this time

This rally/bubble seems to be china-driven.

Makes sense. We are just along for the ride on this one.

You can scream bubble bubble at all of us and we could even agree, but it would not affect the price.

I also think we are seeing casual/hobby mining dying. Very little BTC is being pumped into these companies anymore - the entire summer the mining industry was a suck for BTCs (which then had to be converted to fiat). Now that the ASIC fiasco is winding down and people are realizing its better to buy-hold than speculate on mining we are seeing an increase in price. Very little movement out of BTCs.

Another way to look at it is, the extreme cost of mining discourages miners from selling at lower prices.

2013-10-21 【QQ.com】-Crazy treasure hunting of Bitcoin

This undoubtedly shows bitcoins in China is gradually being public "wallet" to accept. However, there is no relevant Chinese laws and regulations on virtual currency to regulate trade and circulation, the majority of China's Bitcoin investors and owners have seemed to be feeling the stones, gingerly groping government bottom line.

Today was an historical day for Bitcoin
by

on 17/10/2013, 00:06:21 UTC

Today, BTC acted like a real reserve currency. 

Over the past few days, BTC was clearly ignited by concerns over the dollar.  As soon as word of a debt deal was announce, we tanked. Whether or not a hyper inflated dollar would have had any real economic effect on BTC is irrelevant. The perception was there... and enough people familiar with bitcoin actuated a price movement.  I was one of them.

Most interesting, is that the media hasn't picked it up yet.  I've seen them connect dots that simply weren't there (Cypriot and Spanish financial crises), but this was real.  It looks like we get to do it all over again in a few months, so maybe the media won't miss it next time.

BTC is officially a safe haven.

Would be great to have 24-hour volume for each site.

Better yet-- display the volume for each time period as it's selected.
