Despite the massive growth, advancement and advantages of Bitcoin and most crypto currency, why is it hard for most countries to fully accept it is or permit it's exchange?

How would regulation solve the issues you're mentioning, like an investment failing because it was badly researched?

I would love to ask you all: how do you as an individual use Bitcoin to safeguard your own savings, or purchasing power? Do you have any innovative things you have done that are more than simply holding long term?

Headlines could stir the market, but utility cuts through the noise. Grok AI is trending with suspensions over Gaza comments, Musk's Apple lawsuit threat, and new ad integrations in responses, plus Grok 4 now free for all users, in all these BingX AI is pushing more focus on trading trends and position evaluations conversationally. Sharpening the use case of the AI tool and positioning it to aid traders in the ever shifting turbulent market. I tested its new updates on BingX amid this AI heat, and it was quite the outcome I was expecting. These AI's Overhyped or practical?

Because of economic downturn in the world, most people have become jack of all trades and master of non. learning skills and not getting a mastery of them because they are testing waters on which of them will eventually pay the bills. I have a friend who during her spare time learnt soap making, baking, sewing yet she's not making  money off these skills.

Would a “Bitcoin-only” economy be more stable or more volatile than the current fiat system?

What would happen to Bitcoin’s value if all countries banned crypto exchanges together ? Can it survive such an action ?

So I decided to create my account to ask you guys, if you think BTC true potential, of giving individuals financial independence and direct control without relying on banks or large institutions, is being undermined by speculation and the lack of real-world applications?

Well, there is a faster way and someone can get it done in matter of days which we consider as an impossible task but all we need to do is just pay them a commission of 5 -10% or whatever their demands are and things will go smooth as butter.

We also can see some honest government officials but they will be tossed year after year for doing their job in the way it is supposed to be.

About the rules and civic sense we are pretty aware but we chose to ignore it because no one is going to punish us for littering in public. But the same individual who will be working in another country where they follows every traffic rules, no honking and everything but the moment they enter the Indian airport the desi mode will be activated.

Yes I meant what I said, let's say you have fiat and you don't want to buy coin from  exchange since you want to remain anonymous and you decided to look for vendor that will sell to you through non Custodial wallet pear to pear, like sending from electron wallet to electron wallet or meta mask to meta mask, and unknowingly to you that such person got his Bitcoin from scamming someone online and he eventually sent it to you in exchange of fiat without your knowing, do you know that such person might put you into risk? Because if that buyer don't have anyone to sell that coin via wallet p2p and he decided to sell it on exchange, the person can be traced and apprehended as a crimina because he will be seen as the criminal because his identity will be traced from his KYC on exchange Because the transaction has been traced in the Blockchain.

Now my main aim of creating this thread is that a friend asked me to send my BTC wallet address so that he can send me Bitcoin for me to sell it and send him fiat, but I am curious because of my safety since I don't know the source of his BTC if he got it by scamming someone. A thought cam to me that this might be a risky transaction and I don't want to send him my exchange wallet address.

My question now is that to be on a safer side which wallet is best needed for me to send him for transaction that can not be traced even though I am not sure if it's from a scam wallet or not.

It’s not a new to everyone that there have been wars in different countries, and I was just thinking, what if people are forced to leave because of war? They’d probably leave in a hurry without carrying anything, and in that kind of situation, not everyone would think of bringing their land title. The focus would just be on surviving.

Since land titles in most countries are still just paper, there’s always the possibility that a corrupt government could claim the land for themselves and transfer it to their allies. They could even say that the offices where the land records were kept got destroyed, so they can’t recover them anymore which basically resets everything and gives them a perfect excuse to cheat the rightful owners.

But if these records were stored on the blockchain, they couldn’t be erased. The ownership would still be visible and verifiable, making it harder for anyone else to claim the land. I think it’s possible, but I’m not an expert, so I’m wondering how it could actually be implemented in practice and if courts would even accept it. Does anyone here think that’s realistic?

What are your views on this?

Will meme coins like DOGE, SHIBA, PEPE still exist in the near future example 2030? Or will they be gone like shitcoins.
Tell your reasons why do you think they will/will not make it?

Bitcoin's scarcity isn't just a digital artifact; it's a marvel of social consensus engineering.
Even scarcer technologies may emerge in the future, but their value will be challenging to replicate.

Bitcoin ATMs are now effectively banned in Maine. This new law includes:

• A $5/3% max fee or markup
• $1,000 daily limit on both buys and sells
• The operator must provide a full refund for all transactions made within the first 90 days if the customer claims they were scammed

The transaction size and fee caps reflect a misunderstanding of how Bitcoin ATMs actually operate, assuming they function like traditional fiat ATMs. In reality, most Bitcoin ATM operators pay over 3% for cash processing and the purchase of the bitcoin itself. How can they be expected to sell it to customers at that price while also covering high overhead costs like monthly rent and the machines themselves?

Requiring operators to refund customers for up to 90 days of transactions if they fall victim to a scam is an absurd rule. It effectively allows customers to freeroll the operator, putting money into get-rich-quick schemes and demanding a full refund if things go south. It also opens the door for false scam claims.  And how is an operator ever going to afford to refund customers when they're forced by the fee cap to sell bitcoins at below cost?


It appears that all known Bitcoin ATM operators have shut down their Maine operations.
