Unfortunately, many are financially incentivized to ignore the problems — including some of the most influential developers and leaders in the space.

It’s kinda scary writing about Bitcoin.With all the crypto lovers, haters, trolls out there, it feels like any opinion written will get scrutinized as if you said to an NBA fan that Lebron is better than Jordan. 😱🙊

Bitcoin is going crazy. The price is skyrocketing and there is no way this market behavior is rational. Some call it a bubble, but I personally think this is not accurate. I prefer to call it a hype or the simple (over-)appreciation of its future potential. Today’s utility value…
I’d be happy to get your recommendations on additional dates that relate to the block size debate. I don’t categorize the UASF/BIP 148 campaign as super related. Yes, segwit is a block size increase, but the UASF goal was not a rally around increasing the block size, it was a rally around promoting the idea of the ‘economic majority’ which can SF…

Bitcoin will never replace fiat currencies, because it is not the cryptocurrency that will reach mass adoption in the sense of being used for quick everyday transactions like paying a subway ticket or at the checkout of a supermarket.

People are ca-razy for Bitcoin. The optimism, the excitement, it’s like a digital gold rush. But there’s also a low hum of skeptics that can’t wait to short Bitcoin. Luckily, there’s multiple ways to short for the bears.
I’m having fun watching this thing go. As with any investments, never invest any more than you’re willing to lose.
But as far as speculations go, this is intriguing. I would encourage people to seek out sound professional investment advice.

As always very interesting and informative. Thank you. Only surprise is that there was nothing on bitcoin futures, the first of which is launching today. Seems to be a lot of FUD going around about how futures will be used to suppress or manipulate the bitcoin price. I am not sure either way but have been thinking about this quite a bit. Saw a…

I knew I was right to be skeptical! My only doubt was that, since I’m skeptical about almost everything, maybe, just possibly, I was wrong about bitcoin. To me, it’s always about supply and demand, the latest and greatest, the bubble, the lemmings etc. If there was a magic bullet, I would have used it to shoot myself and go to heaven.
Well put! This is revolutionary not because of the profit potential but because of the decentralization and disruption.
My friend Harris Miller, in Virginia, pointed out there was a $70 million bitcoin theft, which may…
Wait! What? Are you insane!?
Bitcoin has reached a tipping point. Not because the majority of folk are degenerate gamblers and want to get rich quick. Nor because it is digital gold and is accepted at a handful of retailers.

Bitcoin (BTC/XBT) is a currency. Anyone who is trying to tell you about ‘market capitalisation’ is uninformed.

Futures are just bets.
You bet that the price of something will be higher (or lower) on a certain date.
The other bets that the price will be lower (or higher) on that date.

More new and new Bitcoin monetization models

The potential uselessness of altcoyins

Recently many news media have been filled with headlines that DASH, Monero and Ephereum have set new historical records of their price. Whereas, they can not find any serious reason for this. And the point is that in the reporting of any cryptofund the way to fix profit in dollars is…
Bitcoin will be the first universal accepted currency.
Bitcoin has grown so much over the years since it was first released to the public.
As of December 10th, 2017; Bitcoin has been valued as $15,243.
That’s impressive.
Excellent piece. This would definitely benefit from translation across several languages. I might give it a try for Spanish and/or French.
Bitcoin started as an investment of $10,000 in 2010, and it is now worth $200 million. This cryptocurrency has made many millionaires over the seven years they have been in operation.
На этой неделе мы наблюдали немыслимые скачки курса главной криптовалюты, от которых просто дух захватывало. Могли ли мы всего несколько месяцев назад представить, что 17000 американских долларов за один биткойн — это реально?
