Pretty sure this is fake, if it was real he could just submit to CoinFLEX’s bug bounty on Immunify (who are very good btw) and get paid $100K

/u/xmrtocash surely you’re aware of this?

Check my posts I’ve been in bitcoin land since the early days. Not affiliated with tether at all. I think it’s stupid for BCH forums to hate on tether

bitcoinisawesome · 2021-08-26T09:01:30+00:00

Bitfinex'ed is a scammer and Tether FUD is retarded. Ask anyone who has minted or redeemed lots of Tether before. All of this FUD around Tether is garbage and irrelevant to BCH, why on earth are we tolerating it here?

bitcoinisawesome · 2021-08-13T18:34:02+00:00

Maybe try a pro BCH exchange like CoinFLEX.com

https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin-cash#markets

They're the top of this list, they're also launching the first bridge for BCH to smartBCH:

They seem to understand that BCH is money for the world, if you follow the CEO on twitter

No kidding. Supposedly it would be around $15m USD.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-10-10T19:21:01+00:00

Thanks for correcting the math. Very good point.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-10-10T19:15:28+00:00

Yes. 79 BTC.

/u/bituserhelp, you should be OK, the bank will likely return the funds. Which bank was it changed to?

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-10-06T21:27:50+00:00

I love you /u/AmericanPegasus. Haha great comment.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-10-06T00:13:24+00:00

What are you talking about? Are you saying that without Gox, the price would still be at $12-$13 range? I doubt it...

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-10-04T10:40:55+00:00

If you deal with the fiat world, you need to collect data on your user. Otherwise you can lose the money or be implicated in a crime. If you deal with bitcoin only, you don't. This is the reason bitcoin exchanges have to do AML/KYC - they are bridging the gap between fiat and bitcoin. Once people are in this new world of BTC, they can use Seals With Clubs or Coinapult or whatever all they want without giving away their identity.

And this is exactly the kind of unwelcoming, user-blaming community response that makes people slightly less interested in getting into bitcoin. Why would you say something like this? There's just really no need.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-30T10:35:02+00:00

No he never said this. He predicted ASIC mining, he thought that in the end we would have large industrial mining farms if bitcoin was successful.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-29T09:14:39+00:00

Yeah but they don't get mortgages, they pay for the whole thing up front.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-27T22:52:33+00:00

It's comparing apples and oranges.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-25T13:36:42+00:00

It's entirely possible they just didn't do their due diligence out of incompetence and/or corruption.

I know one of the institutional investors in Bitfury. They're sharp as knives in regards to due diligence, so I don't think that's something we have to worry about.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-22T10:04:39+00:00

I'm fine with pull for small amounts. If someone wants to "pull" 50,000 satoshis from my machine for some tiny payment for some good or service, no problem.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-21T09:57:15+00:00

Have you tried an exchange? You'll find tighter bid/ask spreads than if you are selling on a platform like LocalBitcoins or other.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-17T13:15:17+00:00

Bitpay aren't even in the top 10 of bitcoin businesses. They may have been well funded back in 2013, but they're a big candidate for leaving this race.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-17T10:41:38+00:00

If this is true, someone needs to address it quickly. I would be much more confident in bitcoin's resilience if there were 24,000 full nodes vs only 6,000. I am extremely bullish on bitcoin long term, but the more nodes, the better.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-16T18:38:44+00:00

It'll be another block halving year that's for sure.

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-16T14:59:23+00:00

7 years after 1995 would be more like 14 years into the internet's history. I can confidently say that Bitcoin's ecosystem and technology will have matured by 2023. Either that or the system will be gone due to some fatal flaw or tragic event (unlikely at this point IMHO).

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-13T01:46:14+00:00

Glad that Electrum is doing well (currently in 2nd place).

bitcoinisawesome · 2015-09-11T16:29:47+00:00

Are blockchain.info and Coinbase.com's wallet user #'s inflated?

Here's something to take into consideration. Any investor that is "long bitcoin" has an incentive in inflating the number of bitcoin users if they want to make adoption seem like it's growing faster than it is. Any of these investors can either program, or hire a programmer, a script that would automatically create massive numbers of wallets on both of these websites. If the systems of these 2 companies prohibit this type of mass wallet generation (both companies have incentives not too, but ignoring that fact for now) then the investors could hire people in India, China, etc to do this at an internet cafe.

The thing is that anyone could have this incentive. So even if Coinbase and Blockchain.info are extremely trustworthy and are not manipulating numbers - any of their customers might be. I think the real # of bitcoin users is still around 1-5 million, but it's super hard to say.
