Reno/Juror, can you elaborate on that (what Reno said)?

Im a HUGH bitcoin noob. Beyond buying 11 of them when they were REALLY cheap, Ive done little research on it.



pretty accurate description what reno said

regarding my bingo comment, a lot of people make the mistake of assuming bitcoins are anonymous when it's not, by design you can say that it's anti-anonymous as every transaction is forever kept and open. these big corps that have taken ahold of the bitcoin industry have too much invested to operate without kyc and log implementations like the earlier exchanges did, if you use them you have lost all anonymity. to stay somewhat anonymous you must buy them directly from someone, using services like localbitcoin and similar, you can find people to sell you some through various payment method that could be anonymous, or as is popular in some euro countries through atm machines with lax software. through either of these methods putting in money into the system can be anonymous. taking money out anonymously is another problem.

anonymity is a dangerous game to play with bitcoins.
 
Anyone remember what bitcoin was originally designed for? I believe it was a tool for transactioning goods and services. Thing is, how is the current price justified given how little this particular crypto is used for its originally designed purposes??

Having said that though it's certainly proven beneficial in discovering other forms of utilities for the block chain so whether it's exponential growth is originating the former, the latter or simply mere speculative behavior on behalf of investors who want to make quick money is anyone's guess at present.

Personally leading toward the continued innovation aspect with as much speculation for quick gains given the increasing market cap growth...
 
what do you think about depositing or cashing out bitcoin with a sportsbook? Seems that should be easy and anonymous, unless the books give away info from their end. I know they giving away 100% bonus :whengy:
If anonymity is your goal then all it would take is an act of congress (or the lawmakers of said country where coins/code is stored) to make your identity known...

If you want true anonymity online (keep in mind no such thing truly exists) then monero is probably where you'd want to look in terms of encryptive anonymity of crypto coins...
 
not really a goal, more of a curiosity. It'd be good if people could transfer money to and from a sportsbook without any hassle. As far as the rest of it goes, I'd like to keep some bitcoin in case the value keeps rising, and who knows, maybe the dollar tanks.

So for now I'm done. Got like $850 spread through 2 paper wallets a phone and a computer. cost me 1k. Maybe I'll deposit into a book sometime to get my bonus :grin:
 
Strongly recommend ripple or xrp token. Its the only centralised digital currency that banks around the world are utilizing...

Only a matter of time before the major exchanges begin adding this and when it does, well, im sure you'll see prices gain some serious traction...
 
That's fine if it happens, but I think it goes way higher before it crashes. I don't think it's unreasonable to think it reaches $5k/BTC (which would be a mere $35 billion market cap) before it drops down to 15 bucks.

It's just too convenient for illicit activities and tax-sheltering purposes.

I was wary at first because I did not know about offline wallets - my BTCs sat at my exchange, which seemed awfully not secure.

I'd put the odds of it hitting $5k/BTC at about 0.000000000000000000000001% in the next 10 years (if it survives that long).
