Someone in prison for a lower tier crime should really not be in the same system with those who are career criminals and higher tier crimes. So laws also need to be reformed and the most extreme should be removed to stop being a waste of resources. After ensuring the guilty is truly the guilty.

Not entirely sure that is how that works, but this is entertaining to watch at the very least.

You necro posted, congrats. haha

ETH is the safe bet since it is not quite as crazy in the price swings like others. Best altcoin in my opinion is likely ontology if they can pull off storing validation of your identity on blockchain. Would make verifying who you are a lot quicker if you are someone who does not like to carry your more sensitive ID cards on you at all times.

But only if, like with most.

Thank you for running a raffle like this and congratulations to ericaltm!

I have a feeling the OP meant influential instead of powerful. I will keep things to myself as to why powerful was selected though. I definitely think English will continue to be the most influential language out there since it is already deeply connected to the international trade system. And it will long continue to had influence as a number of languages incorporated words into them.

I know a lot of people try to equate Han Chinese to the PRC's level of importance, but all someone has to do is look at Russian to see where Han Chinese is going to go. Han Chinese is also incredibly difficult to understand and speak. Just live in the PRC for a few years and you will be come frustrated trying to speak from people from the different provinces.

Then there is the fact that English is something taught in the PRC. Their English level is terrible because of the terrible quality of the English teaching programs, but even an average young Chinese will be capable of basic communication in English.

Like it or not, English is the international language.

Well that is not entirely true, it just takes way more effort than it is worth. Got to get access to the victim's phone.

If sharding and plasma were coming out now and not two plus years from now, big maybe. But since they are not and current conditions, nope.

But Black Swans do exist.

Thanks, I will keep that in mind.

If you an find legit ones. That does seem to be the harder part of this.

Agaton is right that bitcoin beats them in value since most do not really do anything different at the moment. But once the ones that are going to do something and the junk is cleared out, it could be a different story. Specific usually beats general.

So basically be conservative. Works best with those with a shitload of money. Too much to lose.

But what about those with less money? Buying 4 neo today is not going to net you much in the future.

Scam being they never intended on delivering what they said they would. I would include shit that goes dead because they realized they could not do it as well.

Indeed and you will know there is a higher chance for those ICOs to be serious. They did have to put up a lot of money just to make the coin.

Oh it is. But honestly it seems to be going the way of myspace because of that. I have largely stop making posts there because most of my friends are of an opposite political leaning, they just ignore it. And if people are not going to engage or just post some crap, why bother?

Use it just as a form of communication only now.

I think they are referring more in a metaphoric/indirect way. The internet remembers everything.

What was said there. People in a group will also delegate some power to a leader. Some out of laziness. Some out of the desire to not be the one accountable. Just how we animals are.

There needs to be a TLDR version of this eventually. haha
