I just try to remind you about ethereum may not be a POS coin next year and the complete transition can be reached at least 2021 and that means next year there is a lot of possibilities for ethereum to still become POW coin

You can read that news for an evidence. that makes everyone will not put a big expectation for ethereum to be the POS coin next year.

Anything which is in under control of someone has the security breach risks because they own the entire control and if some hacker find a way to break that security shield then everything will be gone that is why centralized projects will not make better future.Facebook itself selling data so they won't consider this as breach only loss to them.

I don't know what is wrong with these Latin American countries. They elect socialists to power and they indulge in all sort of freebie distribution and destroy the economy. Look at the case in Venezuela. Most of the issues can be resolved, if the subsidy on gasoline is removed and the prices are brought closer to the international rates. But the government doesn't want to do that.

My point is:
It is way (probably multiple times?) easier for the exchanges to create fake BTC liquidity. Because of this their price pressure/manipulation capability is magnitudes higher on pushing BTC price down than on push it up.

Thanks for reading this far, what do you think?

Well, sometimes changes are needed (and of course, this is debatable). I think a more careful approach for this fork is needed overall. Instead of planning one or two changes every quarter, they should do 10 upgrades at once while maintaining the compatibility with the previous version.

Pretty sure this is annoying af for small exchanges, so hopefully, this fork thing goes in a better way.

This is exactly why stablecoins like USDT, TUSD, DAI, Libra, etc. won't gain much popularity. Cryptocurrencies and the blockchain technology were created with a scope - that we get rid of all the centralization and excessive control of authorities over the world. Corruption is at all time high level and transparency is nowhere near where we would like it to be. By adopting Bitcoin and blockchain & adiacent tech like smart contracts I'm sure we will make a much efficient & fair world.

In my opinion, centralized exchanges/platforms should exist but shouldn't be promoted too much or above decentralized platforms for the sake of decentralization and security of cryptocurrency. The crypto communities should be promoting the decentralized platforms. The outside world could choose to promote what they want.

I think any cryptocurrency that has most of its value on centralized platforms shouldn't be seen as very decentralized.. Most of tradings should be happening peer-to-peer or via decentralized platforms. The point is to keep things censorship resistant, immutable, secure, trustless etc. Centralized usage of cryptos shouldn't be more than 40%...the less the better.

He probably forget three years ago, bitcoin was by far less than $100, they’re just trying to cherry picking on the price, but two and three years does it make much difference? Do you brother with what you did five years ago? I could barely remember three years ago and every moment.

By 2030, the demand for alternative currencies will rise, with digital currencies eventually replacing cash, according to recent research from Deutsche Bank. 

What do you think as a Crypto Expert? What are the challenges? What things should be adopted to replace fiat?

This is the proof that only exchanges that have potential are can survive in the market. There are now a lot of exchanges that are been closed down because they cannot survive in the market challenges. The competition is also the reason why they announce that they will close.

The German banks have the permission to sell and hold bitcoin but i cannot find any by law that says it will be considered as a legal tender, it might be considered as a commodity and if the government gives the permission to use bitcoin as a legal tender then it will be a huge news for the market and it will reflect in the market and i am still waiting for more news about the recent development.

microsoft has invested in this coin is it true>? called lition and it was only sold to enterpises for ico...............binance and other exchanges going ape shiz. im curious have any of you seen a 1000x in last year>?
