Re: Goverments creating digital currencies - Threat or Opportunity?

I'm sure there are already many who know about this, and a lot of debate has taken place. there are always three main discussions regarding the reaction of cryptocurrency users in the adoption of this technology.

First, some users are happy because this is likely to have a positive impact on increasing demand in the crypto market, because it seems to have the support of the government. Secondly, with speculation from digital yuan (china) this will most likely lead to digital currency not a cryptocurrency, and certainly the digital yuan is central to almost the same as the yuan in general. this can change the image of cryptocurrency

This is a complete summary of what is currently being discussed here.

Do you mind to add more details including team information? so potential investors will know who will be in charge of their investment and platform development.

Our team member will not be publicly named. The problem is, the only goal to be independent and decentralized is to acting decentralized. Many projects have legal problems and can only act limited. Also other exchanges and projects face legal pressure from goverments. This always lead to  forcing members to do KYC and also blocking users from a few countries from using the exchange for example. Therefore to be globally independent active we will be building a decentralized server structure (we already have a partner for that) and an own server network to provide the security, the decentralization and also the availability worldwide. If we would also expose our member then they could receive their own legal problems and this would hurt the intern company structure. That's why we will not publish any specific team member information. In general we see and want to be seen as a DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization).
but part of the team is important to know the public, I hope you make the right solution in this matter, the reason you say related to the law is because they are not introduced, do you not see other exchanges they are not afraid to reveal part of their exchanges, why don't you follow the footsteps of public exchanges?
We will not follow the footsteps of other exchanges as we think to be a pure Decentralized Autonomous Organization we have to go an other path. Other exchanges of course have good sides too but the aspect that the only gateway for trading we have are exchanges which don't support privacy fully. There are always cases like working exchanges getting closed because of legal pressure. Or an other example is that some exchanges which supported no-kyc registration, are now forcing some users, also new ones, to do kyc. We just think, cryptocurrencies should be owned privat and user information should be kept secret by others (this also includes addresses) and exchanges should act decentralized too.

Other than the profile of the team member, there is another important thing that we should not miss which is the development of the project.
Based on their official GitHub page: https://github.com/deflexchange, the team does nothing after creating their first repository on Jan 6, 2020.
It has been 2 months but there is nothing from the tech-wise, what does that mean to you? that means they do not develop anything.
Deflationary is not a thing anymore, you should not far for this kind of hype because almost 99% of the deflationary projects are dead projects. You can search it if you do not believe me.
I am sorry that we have not published much on github. So far we have not had to publish information on Github because we already have a certain internal network of devs. But in the coming months we will be releasing the API's in preparation for our beta on github. Stay tuned.

Re: Craig W. only claims to be Satoshi, because he knows the real Satoshi is dead?

He was about to give proof that he was the real Satoshi. He once announced that he will move some of Satoshi's coins (which were mined in 2009 and not moved since). But later he went back on his promise, saying that he risked arrest from law enforcement agencies, if he prove that he was the real Satoshi.

Reality is: He can't, because he doesn't have control over any of Satoshi's keys.

He doesn't even need to say that he does it. He can give some clues and hints that it is he but not show so much proof for the authorities. For example including a number on some tweets. Then moving the amount in BTC. This is just an idea.

Then again he cannot provide any proof that's why suddenly many people confuse to him so maybe it's best for us to move and not believe on any claims coming from him since listening to him is just a waste of time, finding the real Satoshi still a mystery right now and if he's alive maybe he need to show up to eliminate those fakers.
I prefer Satoshi to be anonym. It is really interesting to know who he really is but I prefer him to be privat and just enjoy what he have done. I hope also that he still owns his Bitcoin as he gave most of the people in this industry and of course all around the world a new chance and opportunity to achieve better things.

Who cares?

BTC is not Bitcoin.
To be fair, BTC is Bitcoin.
BSV is Bitcoin SV.

Facts are real and accepted by many users/companies/communities. The only community which doesn't accepts BTC=Bitcoin as the real Bitcoin is BSV and BCH. I can only imagine one thing why they don't accept it and this is that they have gone all in into their forked versions of bitcoin and just want everyone to do the same so they profit out of it.

Re: Bitcoin as a leading currency?

I don't think that bitcoin will become the leading currency. For me, bitcoin is an idea. It will be difficult to use bitcoin in real life. I think stablecoins are more suitable for this.

You are right but i feel it'll not be difficult if you recognize the way to use it properly. Bitcoin is that the first to exchange the market. Many coins have come after Bitcoin but cannot compete with Bitcoin. But hopefully, Bitcoin will still rise through the facility of electricity.

The media always say that crypto mining uses a lot of electricity. I would say, however, that the electricity that is generated is generated either way. Wind turbines sometimes even have to be switched off because there is too much electricity in the network and too much is being produced. Of course, you can say that mining eats a lot of electricity, but the older the world gets and civilization advances, the more electricity is needed at some point, which in turn drives innovation.

Re: Is there formula for bitcoin price ?
by
ronbennett_
on 20/02/2020, 11:12:41 UTC
I am wondering analysis of bitcoin price/value.
I see some simplified econmics model in Princeton course about bitcoin.
That is Supply = T/P
           Demand = S/D
For price P = TD/S.

Although it is simplied model, while it provides basic thinking about it.

My question is is there other popular model/formula about it ?

Never thought of a formular. Great idea but I think it is difficult to create one as bitcoin is just doing moves like it wants. The formular probably needs to be adjusted daily/hourly and at the end there will be no correct formula.

Bitcoin is a currency.

Back in the days when the civilization was young, we traded with rocks/silver/gold etc.
Nowadays we wouldn't even consider using gold for buying goods. We see it as a financial security for example.

Re: Goverments creating digital currencies - Threat or Opportunity?

In my opinion, the move to create their own digital currency is a positive development.
It means, that the government believes the benefits gained from this technology.
With their action, they are indirectly showing to its constituents that they trust crypto.
Which will then give a positive mindset towards crypto and so it will create more demand of usage.
I consider it as an opportunity to widen the usage of crypto and not a threat.
People later on will see the difference between a decentralized vs centralized coin.
So it will be their choice which one they will use when that time comes.

Digital currencies, in addition to mass introduction into everyday life, will allow the government to solve the problem associated with counterfeit money. In addition, it is an opportunity to reduce the costs associated with the issuance of fiat money and their maintenance.

That is probably true but this is a positive argument for the government. They could also check the accounts of every citizen, see their transaction history, control what they do and at the end we would end up like the Social Credit System of China. In the end it eliminates privacy for normal people.

True. Governments creating their own digital currencies is not a big threat but rather a good opportunity because this will lead into a faster and massive adoption for crypto. People will be now taught how to use digital currencies for them to create cashless transactions which is more convenient compared to fiat transactions. And when the time comes that bitcoin will be develop as a legal currency, hopefully they will start using it too even as an alternative one.
It seems you are not seeing the threat, until not long ago governments were looking for ways to shut down cryptocurrencies but after they realized they cannot do that despite their incredible power they are moving to the next phase which is to create competition against cryptocurrencies, most people that are unaware of the real reasons for the existence of cryptocurrencies are not going to be able to tell the difference between bitcoin and those centralized cryptocurrencies and since those coins will be backed by the government and they are accustomed to use their fiat they will have no problem adopting those coins.

Yes, Governments first said that it is a threat and now after they realized that it is not that easy to shutdown cryptos, they try to go an other path. We could compare it with the cold war but of course without bombs but with competitive products.

Hi, I have a question if Google will have its own digital currency?it will beast bitcoin or not?

I think that it will beat Bitcoin easily! Because Google controls the whole world of the Internet! And it is very famous among the people all over the world. It can market its currency easily.
This is my opinion! What is yours?
First Google Currency which came in my mind is google's own google play credits. But if we talk about a "real" Google Cryptocurrency then I would say that it could end up like Libra. Bad reputation, Governments getting mad etc. Google will probably wait until the Libra topic is sort out and see what happens with it.

Bitcoin can be a currency if it is stable and trusted among most of people and has a value that slightly changes with time

"A currency, in the most specific sense is money in any form when in use or circulation as a medium of exchange, especially circulating banknotes and coins." -Wikipedia

I can confirm that Bitcoin is already a currency as it is used to trade for different goods and services. For example on exchanges or like on Bitcointalk for services.  Wink Wink
Absolutely.

Thousands of online services accept Bitcoin as a payment method. Just due to people mindset that would prefer old school payment methods, but future is around us. Let's look into it. 
People still compare Bitcoin with Gold. Maybe on the value side it is correct, Store of value, but it is still a currency with which you can pay for services and goods. So it could be seen as a currency and gold in one.
