ÞE solution is to not allow third party API connections. These seem to be the root of all hacks so just prevent them and keep our coins safe instead

The president of Brazil is not a forward thinking person. With a population that size they should be competing with China but they are just a bunch of economic n00bs who will go no-where except the beach.

Scarcity plays a big part of in the future price of bitcoin. There is only 21 million bitcoins with 1m locked by Satoshi and millions more being carelessly lost forever. This comparison is a good one

These guys have been trading for such a long time it is a joke for them not to be prepared for such an event. Do they not know what cold storage is!?
Kind of good in a way, people know where it is going as a long term trend and this major blip will give them an opportunity to join us at a good price point

All crypto projects have grand visions but few have the ability to make them a reality. Ripple certainly has potential but haven't managed to convince the big names yet.

This is a useful chart, I guess bitcoin cash is described as an altcoin so it is missing from the diagram. Could do with another diagram showing which alts to use e.g. litecoin, Montero, etc..

Atomic swaps will be the death of exchanges like binance. Who will buy BNB and then trade at high fees when they can just swap it using an atomic swap service
What the heck are they going to do in etherdelta, it is just a shit exchange that trades in shitcoins. Good for holders of crap that are desperate to sell their worthless tokens, but then getting stolen eth isn't much better either

Bitcoin is struggling to get past $8000 but when it does, i can see it hitting $20k again in a matter of weeks. The FOMO this time around is going to be wild and $20k is going to sound like peanuts when it goes parabolic into 6 figures

It wasn't necessary as it will only make things harder to trace. Hackers will simply convert their stolen funds into monero and other privacy coins and it will be impossible to follow what happens next after that

Crypto will destroy the banking industry so they are not going to rush into it. Even ripple hasn't been taken up by major banks, just the smaller ones. They should start accumulating bitcoin or be left with some worthless paper

Hopefully hitbtc will be around for a lot longer. Although some people dislike it and claim to have problems withdrawing funds, i have yet to experience any of those issues. Haven't tried it recently, but in the past it was always worked without any issues
