This seems obvious, why would a bounty campaign hire a translator if they trust google translator so much? More the fool them.

The short answer is no. That is something quite peculiar about chains: you can fork, but you can´t merge. The long answer is ... Yes. For this, you would need to build a system that acts as relay between the chains and I think that Polkadot, and old project, is trying to achieve that. It would act a as relay among chains, so while you would not be able to really connect them, you would be able to have a trust-less relay that would produce actions in the two chains. Now, what you propose, that is converting coins just like that is not possible at the moment, just as it is not possible to burn USD to create Euros.

You've got some of your facts wrong. Additionally, you've stated some additional information that I haven't heard before, and you haven't provided any source for that information.

Satoshi Nakamoto didn't hide or run away because he was doing something illegal. He decide to keep himself anonymous for a greater good. If his identity was a known he could be a problem for bitcoin. Bitcoin decentralization idea could be compromised, centralizing everything on him. Everything he says, every tweet he makes, everything he buys, would be linked to bitcoin. Bitcoin should not have an owner, a face. One of the things that made bitcoin's success was satoshi's anonymity. I think he what he did was a truly altruist attitude.

I don't think that those technologies provide the security of PoW algorithms and if you are going to use that cryptocurrency as a global currency then high level of security is very reasonable. There is also a networking effect going on here, where bitcoins are being accepted more and more which makes them even more useful and drives even bigger adoption. I don't think that improvements of these new technologies are definitive enough nor big enough to overthrow Bitcoin from the top. I think it is a lot risker to invest in altcoins than in Bitcoin currently.

What exactly is an adapp?

I agree with you, as per my view, when it comes to world wide adoption, this is what I think it's going to happen with crypto currencies in the next few years: 1. Slowly banks will start being more and more aggressive twards Bitcoin and crypto, due to this, the crypto community will be more fierceful to make crypto payments in much more stores a possibility 2. Governments will eventually start accepting crypto as tax payment 3. Slowly more and more people will get onboard, just by using their phone and we will have a main crypto, I think Bitcoin has good chances to remain the king here.

The DNA tagging spray is a chemical solution of unique DNA code and UV marker invisible to the naked eye which is almost indelible to remove.It is easily identifiable under UV light, and with strong precision links criminals with crimes The solution marks bikes,cars, clothing and skin of any suspect with a uniquely-coded but invisible DNA that will provide forensic evidence to link culprits to a specific crime.Aware that any attack on someone carrying a DNA tagging spray kit comes with a higher rate of conviction, criminals are less probably to commit the crime in the first place. This drastically reduces the incidents of theft,kidnapping, terrorism and any other form of attack.

I might be prepared to add a 2Tb HDD to the network, but I'm not sure if that would help much. It would probably be useful for my education though.

How will BTC be a traceable and taxable income? If I pay a merchant with cash, there is of course a loop hole (here in the UK at least) that the merchant can not declare the cash and have tax free profit. Will this be the same with bitcoin? Will tax on bitcoin have to be paid in bitcoin? Will there be VAT on bitcoin purchases? All these questions, that, although BTC shows potential and is migrating more and more into every day lives, will it cause another "credit bubble" of sorts and end up causing the next inflationary crash cycle? If BTC is a unified currency and I can trade in China paying for my items in BTC, this will also remove the need for currency exchanging (across some of the minors anyway) and would then effect the economy as a whole. How would interest rates work if we are unified in paying with BTC? Interesting stages are to come with this and it could be very great or be a massive downfall in global economy. It could make redundant all of the Central Banks's efforts of QE... Just a thought. Can anyone please clear this to me?

Hello, I would like to know how much bitcoin was worth when you met him and you learned about his technology? I personally knew bitcoin when it was $ 230.

All those people that where saying year ago how Bitcoin would fail because another currency would take over get proven wrong year after year. The more time Bitcoin is alive, the stronger it gets and the bigger the network effect. Sorry but there will not be a Bitcoin 2.0. Bitcoin will go to 100k+ per coin in the next 5 to 10 years, it will absorb all the value researched in the field if not directly through protocol improvements then through sidechains. Bitcoin will remain the only solid coin. The only coin that survived for the longest time (other coins can't claim this unless they invent a time machine). There will be alts that pump really hard and make people millionaires, but no alt is going to surpass Bitcoin's strength and solidity. No coin will get a bigger market cap. In the long term people holding 21+ BTC will be rewarded by history with rich-tier status for seeing the value in it before most people did. Do not let the people to trick your mind or the trolls try to derail the excellent job being done by Core devs. Let's continue then our path towards inevitable triumph.

Have you sold too early, lost your keys, traded something? Let's hear it.

The government is able to ban Bitcoin ? If they do, we can just use proxy or ask for someone from other country to do trades for you, right ? I mean is kind of possible they truly ban, what you guys think ?

Why people are still scared to invest on bitcoin even they know it’s ability to soar even higher in the future ?

Listen to me. Look I know we are a free community, but come on don't you think the price has become so volatile during the past few months just because people started using it as a form of investment. I've seen people buy in low, in hopes of selling it at high, and that's basically pump and dump. Bitcoin wasn't created to make us rich over night but was created so we could have control over our money and not the bankers. It was created so we could be free, so there won't be any borders telling us we are different from them so we can't trade with them. To be united, but all I see are people only talking about how much profit they've made, not about how it can help people that don't have access to banks(they do but it's a minority). We live in a society where we take everything for granted, just like we've taken Bitcoin for granted. We don't deserve it. The ones that deserve it don't have access to it. At the end of the day we become savages and only think about the profit not the good that it can do for us, instead of making us rich. Yes, I was introduced to it because of the investment, but I was a fool at that time, I couldn't see the bigger picture. We are a community created for the people, by the people. Recently in UAE, Arabian Escapes is a real estate company where you can buy properties with BTC, and also, Recently, KFC Canada has accepted Bitcoin payments for a short period of time. However, Bitcoin can only be used to place orders online, and only to purchase a new item called "Bitcoin Bucket" and all this special deal will be handled by Bitpay, a fairly common Bitcoin trading tool. Its really interesting news, I wish that I can also buy chicken by paying bitcoin in my country. also, the Burger King in Arnhem, Netherlands, went started accepting bitcoins in 2016, it went all-in, and offered one free Whopper for every Whopper purchased with the digital currency. also, Rolex watches can be purchased online with BTC. also, Fifteen minutes after the online mattress retailer GhostBed began accepting bitcoins, its CEO says it processed its first bitcoin sale. A good night's sleep is, of course, priceless and many more things. (P.S. If you don't see Bitcoin as investment, then be proud of it, and hope it can help us be united, for it's all that we have left against them)

Let's consider this : Governments cannot stop Bitcoin by stopping the technology, but they can kill the interest that people have in buying bitcoins. Could governments with the help of Banks, be behind this falling price?Last year we saw a huge increase in the price and I was thinking that it could have been a collective buying strategy by Banks to buy a lot of coins for a synchronized dump in 2018. If the Banks bought a lot of coins last year at the beginning of the spike from $1000 and they triggered a buying frenzy, then most of the more expensive coins would have been bought by the public. So they might just have bought coins to trick other investors into buying more coins. So what is their goal? Their goal will be to break the demand for Crypto currencies and Bitcoin, by gradually dumping the cheap coins that they bought at the start of last year and pushing the price down. <Like what is happening now> They know investors will have bought at the higher end, say $10 000 to $19000 and these people would probably have lost money, when they started dumping in 2018. They saw that "demand" for Crypto currencies increased, when there is a constant increase in the price and they are now creating a constant decrease in the price to break people's confidence in the technology and also the demand for the coins. They will obviously use untraceable methods to do this, because the Banks are helping to hide the origin of this money. They can only print a few Billions more to execute this strategy and this will go unnoticed, because it is toilet paper money. This is the only logical reason why we are seeing a constant decrease in the price, in spite of all the good progress that we have made. It also explains the large spike in the price in 2017. Hodl on guys and gals, do not be tricked by these cheap tactics. <If this is true>

I have seen many times that in local market BTC price are quite change from international market. Once the price of BTC in Indian market (Zebpay) used to be 2-3 lacs more than the price in bitfinnix. But today BTC price in Indian price is 1 lac less than the price in bitfinnix , which is big amount in terms of percentage.

Since the beginning of the year bitcoin prices continue to decline and there are still many bitcoin users who still survive and hope bitcoin will rise again, but in fact the price of bitcoin increase has not been significant and impressed stagnant and continue to fall, what exactly happened, could the market start to get bored, trust against bitcoin begin to decrease and switch to another coin as an alternative. how in your opinion?

In times of volatility and uncertainty, investors tend to favor one particular crypto that has high liquidity and is stable. At the current time, Bitcoin price trend still dominates the market trend.However, Bitcoin leading position seems to be doubtable as Altcoins have recorded a stronger rise recently and the market is less affected by Bitcoin. Instead of following the general price trend of bitcoin, many cryptocurrencies also start to follow their own “trajectory”.This week, the altcoin works much better than both Bitcoin and Ethereum. The added value of the ERC20 tokens and the increasing demand for small cryptocurrencies of investors in the global market has proved that Crypto investors are more confident in betting their money on this market.Saxo Investment Bank from Danish, with its aim to focus on online trading and investment, has announced in a recent report that the capital inflows from organizations to the Crypto market will lead to a rise in prices for most of these currencies.

The University of California is now offering a class on cryptocurrency. Arizona State University has launched a blockchain research lab in collaboration with the Dash cryptocurrency. Stanford University began offering a Bitcoin class two years ago, and Fordham University started teaching students about cryptocurrency a year before that. Cambridge University is now including blockchain education as a core part of their Masters in Finance degree The reality is that an increasing number of universities are starting up Bitcoin education classes, and this push is starting to filter down to high schools. Students, on a percentage basis, are much more well-versed in the cryptocurrency sphere than older generations (such as their teachers), so it makes perfect sense that there’s an increasing demand for such education to be implemented on campuses.At what age do you think students should start learning about cryptocurrencies?

"Soon" would be in the next 1-3 years or so. One of the biggest dangers for BTC is something more useful coming along and investors switching - a process which could happen extremely fast, once started. So to all the tech savy people in here - what advantages could other cryptocurrencies bring that will give them a crucial edge over BTC, and how fast could something like that come along?

Bitcoin is the leading coin of the market. What you think about the future of bitcoin and others coin?

I believe that these are the reasons why you should choose bitcoin.* Popularity* Media coverage * Price* High profits after holding for so long* Numerous success stories* Integration with the government and the economy of the country, it's more reliable and promising compared to any other alternatives coins.* Safety* Can't be copied* Was the first digital currency createdAny thoughts about this question and i want to know what's on your mindset
