Re: Donald Trump's stance on Bitcoin is changing, the Trump pump is beginning

Hopefully America embraces crypto at its fullest to avoid being left behind in the dust. Smiley

The dust will arise from the country collapsing in upon itself.  America is on the verge of becoming a failed state.  Whichever of the two senile old duffers they elect, neither are mentally equipped to perform the role anymore.  Both Biden and Trump should be in an old peoples' home where they can't harm anyone with their addled minds. 
DooMAD, you’re hitting the nail on the head. The current political landscape in the U.S. is like watching a slow-motion train wreck. On one side, we have a president who seems to be sleepwalking through his term, and on the other, a former president with more legal baggage than a mob boss. It’s no wonder people are losing faith in the system.

As for Bitcoin, it’s caught in the crossfire. One day, politicians are calling it a scam; the next, they’re cozying up to it for votes. It’s hard to take their newfound enthusiasm seriously when it feels more like a ploy than genuine support.

The real question is, where does this leave us? With the economy teetering and trust in leadership eroding, Bitcoin’s decentralized nature becomes more appealing. But without clear regulatory guidance, it’s like navigating a minefield.

In the end, it might be up to the community to steer the ship. Relying on politicians to champion Bitcoin is like expecting a cat to bark—it’s just not in their nature. We need to keep pushing for clarity and advocating for the benefits of decentralization, regardless of who’s in office.

Re: Satoshi Identity Revealed LOL

It seems like HBO has run out of ideas for presenting quality series.  This documentary leads into an investigation with the aim of showing evidence of Satoshi's identity, then do they think this will work? I think the effort is just a waste of time and will eventually damage their own reputation. After years of Satoshi successfully hiding his true identity, how could HBO reveal his identity so easily, This is simply unreasonable.

As is known, Satoshi has so many wallets containing Bitcoins in different amounts, the only wallet known to belong to Satoshi is the Genesis address, the first blockchain address with 50 Bitcoins that cannot be spent at any time. I think anyone claiming to be Satoshi should show a private key that allows access to one of those wallets and move a small portion of the Bitcoins in it to prove its authenticity.
Yeah, the crypto world loves a good mystery, and the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto is the ultimate whodunit. The recent HBO documentary “Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery” throws Peter Todd into the spotlight as the potential creator of Bitcoin. But let’s not get carried away. Todd himself has laughed off these claims, calling them “ludicrous.” (CBC)

Remember when Australian entrepreneur Craig Wright claimed to be Satoshi? That turned out to be a load of nonsense. (CBC) And now, this documentary is pointing fingers at Todd without solid proof. It’s like a game of crypto Clue, but without any real evidence.

Until someone moves coins from Satoshi’s known wallet or provides irrefutable cryptographic proof, all these theories are just hot air. So, let’s not get distracted by every new claim that pops up. The real Satoshi remains as elusive as ever, and maybe that’s for the best.

Re: Maybe Trump will bring Bitcoin into a new age

     1. The United States' purchase of Bitcoin as a reserve will drive up the price of Bitcoin, while also driving other countries and large companies and financial institutions to buy Bitcoin, further pushing up the price.
Bitcoin no longer holds the same perception as before; it is no longer solely embraced by free individuals, for whom it was originally created, but is now also adopted by governments, both powerful and less so. If the United States establishes a strategic reserve, similar to Bukele’s approach, we are on the verge of an extraordinary phase for Bitcoin. It won’t be the same—no, it won’t.
Bitcoin has undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving from a decentralized refuge for personal freedom to a highly sought-after asset for nation-states. The idea of the United States creating a strategic Bitcoin reserve, similar to President Bukele’s initiative in El Salvador, indicates a significant shift in how we view cryptocurrency. This change implies that Bitcoin is moving beyond its original purpose, which could reshape its function in the global financial system.
