> even cryptocurrencies among themselves are not capable of peaceful coexistance

That's a proxy war (i.e. the innocent people getting killed in Syria are not the ones behind all the fighting).

I do agree that the world will never agree on one blockchain, but the diversity is a strength, strength in numbers, remember?

Here's one problem with the U.S. approach and it's not just crypto:

Crypto in the Kill Zone
https://www.bitcoinwednesday.com/crypto-in-the-kill-zone/

It's about Regulatory Capture.



I personally think it's important to aim for a peaceful co-existence between the decentralized cryptocurrency and fiat systems, but agree it won't be easy getting there.

Bitcoin Wednesday celebrates its 5-year anniversary with a 2-day conference on 4-5 July 2018.





We have not missed a single first Wednesday of the month for this event going all the way back to our "genesis event" in 2013.  (See the beginning of this thread to find out about when it all started.)

To mark this unbroken chain of events we'll have 2 full days of presentations and will feature talks about Lightning Network, smart contracts, tokens for enterprise and industry, the investment case for Bitcoin and much more.

What kind of "Drug Lord" orders fake IDs to his home or posts his own email address to Bitcoin Talk?

The New York Times article refers to two posts on this same forum:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=175.msg42670#msg42670

and

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=47811.msg568744#msg568744


The story only mentions the word "bitcoin" once.

The New York Times front page story refers to this forum thread.  But what kind of "Drug Lord" orders fake IDs to his home or posts his own email address to an online forum?

Haha.  Ik vond de Nederlandse accent wel mee vallen.  BitcoinWednesday is allemaal opgezet door vrijwilligers.

Ken je iemand met ervaring met voiceovers of heb je zelf ervaring mee, dan kan je ons helpen met de volgende video.

Nee, geen grap.

Grapjassen zullen direct en zonder discussie door de uitsmijters uit het gebouw verwijderd worden.

De organisatie voert een zero-tolerance-beleid op het gebied van verstoringen, wapens, agressie, bedreiging, ongewenste intimiteiten, discriminatie, racisme en alle andere ongewenst gedrag.

We are still going strong here in Amsterdam.
