Re: What if crypto vanishes?

I don't see how this whole technology is ever going to go down the drain just like that. This will never happen as the true impact of the blockchain technology can never be felt without the use of cryptocurrency. Decreasing transaction cost and having a transparent financial system will not happen and we will go back to the old corrupt ways where government officials abscond with huge sums of money.

I don't think it will ever happen, looking at the emergency of the Crypo currency, which was masterly designed through the blockchain Technology. Even for one reason or the other , the internet which was also been considered ,have been critically check before launching the Crypt currency ,havinh been  seen as a method that will never fail.

Re: Will Senate safe Donald Trump's impeachment?

So, technically the Senate can't stop the House from moving forward with the impeachment process steps. It can, however, stop a president from being convicted and removed from office. In fact, in several instances throughout history, American presidents have been impeached by the House, but not convicted by the Senate — meaning they remained in office.


Remember this: Republicans control 53 seats in the Senate. Even if the Democratic-led House impeaches Trump, he will not be removed until 67 senators vote to convict him. Which, by a bit of back-of-the-envelope math, means that 20 GOP senators would have to side with all 47 Democrats (and independents who caucus with Democrats) in the Senate for Trump to actually be removed.


A simple majority of the House of Representatives (at least 218 votes) is required to impeach a U.S. President followed by a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate (at least 67 votes).


Cool

I want to believe that the Senate will be considering the facts and allegations against Donald Trump, also the power of party will  come into play, from the look of things the Senate may not support the impeachment , judging from the number of votes the president was able to get even from  the Representative  that have higher number of democrats, so at the Senate definitely, Donald Trump will not  be impeached.

very interesting to read the article, but it can be applied if in my country bitcoin has been implemented and supported by the government, for now I still find it difficult to carry out daily activities using bitcoin .. !!
This is the reality, even in my country lack of establishment to use bitcoin as payment. So, still fiat money is easy to use that can buy goods and services. But, we can use btc in online to buy some what we needs. Also, I use btc for investment and trading other crypto.
I actually use bitcoin in all my online transactions that accepts bitcoin as a means of payment. But in the country where i come from it is not all shops and business  centers that accepts bitcoin, but wherever bitcoin is accepted, I also use it for  buying, some shop outlets even place Notice of accepting bitcoin. The highest and most reliable place of using bitcoin is  on the  online transactions  where I easily use bitcoin.

Re: Is KYC benefit to crypto people or not
by
posoa
on 08/12/2019, 21:15:48 UTC
KYC is becoming more and more required in crypto now, and there is a possibility that within the next 2 years crypto wont be available as it is now without KYC and even harder regulations, i do so much hope that it don't come to that, it will kill the basic idea of crypto.  
It is definitely a problem right now and as you say it is probably going to become an even bigger problem in the future but that is not going to kill the idea behind cryptocurrencies, what we need is more people to accept cryptocurrencies directly as a payment and that only is going to happen with more adoption, but once that happens those regulations are going to become meaningless because you will be able to use your coins directly to buy anything that you want without having to go through KYC.

If KYC is required for the purpose of buying bitcoin, for regulating the activities of members who over the years might have given the crypto currency a bad name as a result of their activities. However divulging personal information is the greatest risk of which if such information is not kept save can also be used against the owner of the information

Re: Why are so few women buying into Bitcoin?
by
posoa
on 08/12/2019, 20:02:25 UTC
It amazes me the number of men in crypto but women not so much.
When I talk to my girlfriend or female friends I feel like they don't care about it or I am crazy lol. I offered 3 of my female friends 10 dollars worth of Bitcoin via Coinbase to see if they will be interested.  I helped download the app, set up two-factor authentication and some other basic stuff. After a couple of months, they even don't recall how to access their wallets. I am very disappointed lol. Can someone explain to me why women are not interested in crypto?

There are two gaps to consider.

Bitcoin is widely treated as an investment asset, and women generally invest in financial markets much less than men:
Why women invest 40 percent less than men
Why fewer women invest in the financial market

Secondly, there's the technology aspect. There is a pronounced gender gap in computing and STEM fields in general, partly due to differing levels of interest:

Quote
A survey, conducted by SWIFT ("Supporting Women in Information Technology") based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, asked 7,411 participants questions about their career choices. The survey found that females compared to males have lower levels of interest and perceived ability in computer science. This study (as well as others) provides a strong base for a positive correlation between both level of interest and perceived ability with career choice.

I want to agree with the facts that most women actual do not really have that  mind set to actually accept the volatility of bitcoin and as a result, even when given over $2000 worth of bitcoin, such dollars can be withdrawn as soon a woman discover the price of bitcoin is going down.Their mindset is different from that of men.

Re: Do you like cats? Here you can do something good!
by

Hi BTCtalk,
i thought i littlebit about the following and if its smart to post here as i recognized people spent their BTC for all kind of stuff and ponzies but nothing similar to this.

If youre reading here to make money, go away. If you like pets, especially cats read on, you might can do something good.


About one year ago i adopted a tomcat out of a spanish perrera through a charity organization. The charity organization is taking cats out of these so called perreras, brings them to a doctor establishing contacts to find a new home for those poor pets.

Of course this isnt just a problem in spain, but very heavily there. Im from germany and have been in spain for holidays for a decade, it always was heartbreaking to hear and see these stories.

So short and sweet, i want to ask you to have a look on this topic and maybe arrange a sponsorship for one of those pets.

I found this way my buddy tomcat, a real bengal cat which was a fluke but even this isnt unusual there, but as sayd, even if you cant or wont adopt a cat, a few dollars/euros sponsorship can help a lot or even material sponsorship like food and other things cats need.

Bottom line, there are pet-charity organizations which care about this topic, i cant speak for those but i can honestly say that the organization i got my buddy from did a good job and i still support them. May you like to visit their website (the website is in german) http://www.sieben-katzenleben.de/galerie.php

For example this tomcat could need some support: http://www.sieben-katzenleben.de/katze.php?id=817


Beeing sayd, im not affiliated nor do i profit in any way - except of course, that i feel good writing this.

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
What are perreras and why do they exist?
Well i could pull out really shocking things but i make it short.
Perreras are places where vagrant pets mainly dogs and cats get collected to hold the cities and camping places clean for the tourists, there is not much more to say, if you want to know more use google.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////






I actually do not like cats i rather prefer a dog. Not that i hate cat, from a distance some look attractive to behold and play with, but Dogs are more preferred.

Without having a risk, you could not find any source of investment without risk, but day by day Bitcoin is becoming a very risky platform for both investment and trading, you have to face a lot of prices volatility because Bitcoin is suffering a lot of price ups and downs in recent time, but if anyone ponders about the future purpose then it might be a good source of profit because,  in the future, Bitcoin will bring to us a good opportunity and it will be one of the main monetary platforms. so for the long term investment, Bitcoin is one of the best for anyone.

Bitcoin as a crypto currency have actually affected many life for good, the volatility of bitcoin tends to create a lot  of fear in the mind of investors. The reason why many invest and the price of bitcoin keep fluctuating to the disadvantage of the investors, calls for a long Term investment with a capital that can serve for that purpose, not necessary your whole capital, for the short term investment have a double side to the coin. So investing in Bitcoin is a nice idea, but you have to invest wisely as well.This is because if you don't invest with what you have make up your mind to use, and tomorrow there is a boom in Bitcoin am sure you will not be happy with yourself. That is why many people's opinion is for you to invest wisely.

Re: Bitcoin Dump - The Worst Thing
by
posoa
on 03/12/2019, 12:14:09 UTC
When BTC dumps, all other coins also dump, it is worst thing because even if bitcoin dumps, then it should not effect the other cryptocurrency price value in BTC. i,e when BTC dumps the price value of altcoins is also drops while it should increase because btc downs. When people will realize it that it is not in their benefit?
You can call that any theory you want but the fact remains that bitcoin is the only coin the market that can be trusted and the rest of the coin revolve around the value of bitcoin and if people start selling bitcoin the rest of the market will go down as well and that is what we are seeing for years as long as the alt coin market came into existence. Most of the people are not long term holders and they will trade according to the market sentiments and that is why you see big drops in all the market.

in fact calling Bitcoin Dump is not a good idea, yes over the years bitcoin have played a significant role that has gone a long way to make it a model to other cryptos. Why is it that when the price of bitcoin falls all other coins are affected ,it is because Bitcoin Ranks the best of the crypto  coins in existence. Also most Investors are aware of the Volatile nature of Bitcoin,and with this in mind, it calls for investors to either invest for Long term or short term so as to be able monitor their investments and at long run will not come out to call Bitcoin names like Dump -the worst thing.

Re: stupidity is so close to poverty

on 03/12/2019, 11:47:41 UTC
I don't agree that stupidity is so close to Poverty, this is  because Not all people who are poor that are stupid, and not all Rich people are not stupid. If a poor man is given the opportunity to have access to money, it will surprise many people the great transformation that will happen to that individual. In other way some of the rich are not seen to be stupid because they employ advisers and many such around them that help correct, and make their stupid acts not visible to the society. A rich man was invited to an occasion to deliver the opening speech as the Chairman of the occasion,despite the speech have been written and  given to him for  over a week to the Event,Yet he could not read the speech, what would you call that. so if opportunity comes the way of the poor and the person in question fails to use the opportunity wisely then such are the people that can be said to be stupidly close to poverty. But let this fact be known that Stupidity may not be  directly  link to Poverty, it is the way the society tends to see it. It is a two way thing, it can be link to either the Rich and also the Poor, depending on their Character display.

Re: Do Humans Have Free Will?

on 02/12/2019, 22:05:49 UTC
Yes most Humans have free will, this can be seen in he area of choice and act of preference when it come to some certain matter, ideas, discussion, or National issues. And we  see people contradicts each other. Most of the time it may be personal. In the Bible God said " My thought for you is of good and not evil, to give you an expected end" This is the will of God for all His Followers. irrespective of what people say or do that is a free will of God for his followers. So also, like Adam has a free will to name every animal God created with its name,that is his free will, and what ever name Adam called the animal,that is the name such animals bears till date.It is  possible if Eve was allowed to name the animals as regarding her free will to do that, the names of some of the animals we have in the world today might be different.

Re: What food can you buy with $1 in your place ?

posoa
on 01/12/2019, 19:05:58 UTC
I want to know in your place the food is cheap or expensive.
With $1 in my place. I can buy 1 plate of food and 1 glass of ice tea.
Maybe someone can have more cheap.
In my country, It is quite above $1 to get a decent plate of food that will satisfy your appetite. It also depend on the type of food you actually want to eat at a time, if you will like a plate of food , which goes for about $2 and that will not satisfy you especially if it a pounded yam, Semovita ,Garri or others, it means you have to get about 2 to 3 plates more to be able to be satisfy your hunger, probably about say $6 to $8 will actually take care of your lunch.And if you are the type that likes extra meat, fish, Chicken ...etc then actually your spending may be close to $10  that is with drinks and others not mention.
Most of the time many people try to cut cost to avoid spending so much so as to be able to meet up with the payment of so many other bills, and that make a lot of people to  prefer  buying  food stuff and prepare it by themselves as this has been seen by experience men and women who have tried buying food from food vendor and cooking such similar food at home , and have come up with the idea that  cooking at home is a means of saving cost, so as to be able to  meet up with other needs and challenges .

No religion can save you. It is your practical  exhibition of Godly Characters that is approved by God that is inline with what God have written in his  Holy books that can save you.Holy conducts in speech, thoughts, Actions, exhibition of Love to your God, and to your Neighbors are inline with what God holds in high esteem. Many tends to be Religious and the actual practice thereby is missing from their lives, these type of people only holds to the outer form of the Religion. Many are seen in this type of Practice in the name of been Religious which can not save them. God seek true worshipers and not those who are merely Religious in appearance and nature. No Religion will save any body except those that does  the will of God in Heaven.Those are the people that God  Knows and acknowledge as his Children and  believers.

It is  not actually  too late to invest in Bitcoin, especially with the price of bitcoin dropping to as low as about $10000, from about $19000 last year Dec. 2017, which tends to be on a  high  side for many desiring to invest in Bitcoin. The price drop is as a result of a period of the dip, which comes as a result of the Volatility of Bitcoin.Almost all investors into Crypto currency are  aware of this period.Many Investors as well as new investors usually take advantage of a period like this to invest and Hodl. And as a beginner it is pertinent to incline yourself with the ideology and Principles of the Crypto currency  you are investing in. One thing is sure which is you are not too late to invest and as an investors great is your profit after a long term of investment.

Re: BITCOIN is stagnant why??
by

on 27/02/2018, 17:13:35 UTC
it may seem that the market stagnates. but in fact, he expects a portion of the news!

As for me, bitcoin is not stagnant, it only moves in a sideways trend. There is indecision on the market. If there is any significant impulse, the market may move up or down.

I really agree with you that Bitcoin is not stagnant, looking at the rate it drop to which was about 6000K during the period of the dip and now it has rise above 10000K, it cannot be said to be stagnant. A lot of factors might have contributed to it, including the banning of Bitcoin in China, bad press publicity about Bitcoin  and cryptocurrency, and possible  some whales controlling its price. Actually,  HODLING   just for a little while will  be the best thing to do , as investing in Crypto remains the best thing to do. The Market price fell and the fluctuations in the price of bitcoin may be use by some to  Conclude that it is  stagnant, which is not.
