I have advertised only via word of mouth that my company accepts Bitcoin for custom plans and today we got our second Bitcoin payment!

Edit: a bit more info: We are a digital marketing company and Paypal has been banned in Turkey so it is a very good example of what Bitcoin should be used for.

Bitcoin's mere existence is an insurance policy that will remind governments that the last object establishment could control, the currency, is no longer their monopoly. This gives us, the crowd, an insurance policy against an Orwellian future.

BitcoinIt may fail but we now know how to do itLet us follow the logic of things from the beginning. Or, rather, from the end: modern times. We are, as I am writing these lines, witnessing a complete riot against some class of experts, in domains that are too difficult for us to understand, such as macroeconomic reality, and in which not only the expert is not an expert, but he doesn’t know it. That previous Federal Reserve bosses, Greenspan and Bernanke, had little grasp of empirical reality is something we only discovered a bit too late: one can macro-BS longer than micro-BS, which is why we need to be careful on who to endow with centralized macro decisions.What makes it worse is that all central banks operated under the same model, making it a perfect monoculture.In the complex domain, expertise doesn’t concentrate: under organic reality, things work in a distributed way, as Hayek has convincingly demonstrated. But Hayek used the notion of distributed knowledge. Well, it looks like we do not even need that thing called knowledge for things to work well. Nor do we need individual rationality. All we need is structure.It doesn’t mean all participants have a democratic sharing of decisions. One motivated participant can disproportionately move the needle (what I have studied as the asymmetry of the minority rule). But every participant has the option to be that player.Somehow, under scale transformation, emerges a miraculous effect: rational markets do not require any individual trader to be rational. In fact they work well under zero-intelligence –a zero intelligence crowd, under the right design, works better than a Soviet-style management composed to maximally intelligent humans.Which is why Bitcoin is an excellent idea. It fulfills the needs of the complex system, not because it is a cryptocurrency, but precisely because it has no owner, no authority that can decide on its fate. It is owned by the crowd, its users. And it has now a track record of several years, enough for it to be an animal in its own right.For other cryptocurrencies to compete, they need to have such a Hayekian property.Bitcoin is a currency without a government. But, one may ask, didn’t we have gold, silver and other metals, another class of currencies without a government? Not quite. When you trade gold, you trade “loco” Hong Kong and end up receiving a claim on a stock there, which you might need to move to New Jersey. Banks control the custodian game and governments control banks (or, rather, bankers and government officials are, to be polite, tight together). So Bitcoin has a huge advantage over gold in transactions: clearance does not require a specific custodian. No government can control what code you have in your head.Finally, Bitcoin will go through hick-ups (hiccups). It may fail; but then it will be easily reinvented as we now know how it works. In its present state, it may not be convenient for transactions, not good enough to buy your decaffeinated expresso macchiato at your local virtue-signaling coffee chain. It may be too volatile to be a currency, for now. But it is the first organic currency.But its mere existence is an insurance policy that will remind governments that the last object establishment could control, namely, the currency, is no longer their monopoly. This gives us, the crowd, an insurance policy against an Orwellian future. via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2FMWa9t

Suggestion: A call for all BTC wallet providers to run an LN node/channel. Here’s why...

One of the biggest concerns the fork crowd has, is that the poorest 3 to 5 billion in the world won’t be able to afford opening an LN channel to participate in the Bitcoin economy.This concern can be eliminated by smartphone wallet app providers having their own LN node/channel (apologize, I don’t know the proper term here)Five or 10 years down the line, this will probably be ubiquitous. But we should get the conversation going now.It’s my personal opinion that there’s nothing more important than the poorest, and most oppressed in the world, being able to exit fiat and participate in this new economy.I believe Bitcoin will benefit all of us, but I believe it was primarily made for them.How close are we to Lightning being stable/safe enough for us to begin making this request of wallet providers, and even insisting on it? via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2CNXuHp

Simplex hidden fees

Why is no one warning people about the fees that Simplex.com charges when buying Bitcoin?They charge $10-$15 on a simple $100 purchase. You can look at their fee schedule on their page, but the most disappointing part about it is that they do not disclose the fee in the transaction process. Yes they put the fee at the bottom of the page, but they do not tell you what fee they are charging this specific transaction ever. Not during the transaction and not after the transaction. You basically agree to buy x BTC for X$ and then the rest can be associated to fees, but they don't tell you how much that is. You have to calculate it yourself. And they never give a receipt for it either. It makes me think they are taking these fees under the table to the Israeli government. (that is where they are based out of)Any thoughts let me know. I'm really upset with bitcoin.com for using simplex as their payment vendor. Its great to be protected, but not when they are hiding their fees during the transaction process.Thanks, via /r/Bitcoin http://bit.ly/2HYnHGA

PSA: DO NOT USE BITPAY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES..

Facts

-BitPay has, as of March 3rd, 2019, requested that FirstView Financial, LLC, the issuers of their PrePaid Visa Debit Cards (for which BitPay users hold a bank account), halt ALL access to cash held in its users accounts, except for signature purchases at a merchant. This includes all cash-back transactions, ACH transfers to another Bank Account, and ALL ATM WITHDRAWLS.

-FirstView Financial, LLC is insisting that BitPay is in fact in control of this- however, as BitPay only serves as a means of exchange, they can only request that this action be taken by the Card Issuers. FirstView Financial has obliged this request.

-BitPay is stating that this is due to a "Systems Upgrade" being completed to make transactions smoother. However, after 3 weeks, neither BitPay nor FirstView Financial, LLC is able to give an estimate as to when these "Systems Upgrades" will be completed. BitPay has convinced FirstView Financial, LLC to make false statements regarding the true nature behind this move.

-The change was made without warning, and while both FirstView Financial and BitPay insist that users were notified via email, I have personally confirmed the 5/5 users of BitPay, including myself that I personally know, never received such communication.

-FirstView Financial does not have any physical branches, but is in fact an interstate bank. They are legally mandated to allow access to physical currency for their account holders. They are not.

-BitPay in fact hid this information, buried in their FAQ section.

-No warning is given prior to making a deposit to the Visa Debit Card. Customers only become aware of this limitation after attempting to gain access to their cash.

-BitPay will not reverse any transfers made to the cards.

-Neither BitPay nor FirstView Financial is able to provide any details as to why they might be performing a "systems update," stating only that it is for improvement.

-Both companies have shown a readiness to conduct underhanded and deceitful tactics to cover up what is actually transpiring.

Speculation and Common Sense Reasoning

Anyone knows that no "systems update" takes 3 days, let alone three weeks. Yet after 3 weeks, it appears that there is no plans to bring back cash withdrawals via the ATM card, cash-back pin transactions or ACH transfers. Furthermore, the BitPay system has functioned flawlessly for years. And if there was no reason to lie, than bitpay could have easily displayed messages in their app warning users or prominently on their homepage, or even as an alert when logging into a users account- they did not. It further appears they are telling people that they recieved an email that was never sent.

The most plausible explanation is that they are under investigation for failing to comply with AML and KYC regulations required by a crypto-fiat exchange. Had their suspension of Cash access been a well planned undertaking, then it could be argued that they simply planned to phase that out to avoid the costs associated with proper identity verification, but their willingness to lie, and convince FirstView Financial to lie suggests that they in fact are working hard to cover up the truth.

With this in mind, I do not think it is unreasonable to question the conrinued future access to any funds deposited to a prepaid BitPay Visa debit card- even if the user only wishes to spend them at certain merchants with a signature transaction.

What to Do

-Firstly, I suggest anyone with any funds on a BitPay Visa Debit all call FirstView Financial LLC and demand access to their CASH. While FirstView will insist that they are not in control, every person with cash in a BitPay Visa Debit account has an account- unlinked to BitPay in any regard- solely in their own name. No bank is allowed to restrict access to its customers funds (up to $250,000 at a time), saying they can only "spend" the money at merchants who accept Visa.

-Demand answers from BitPay! They are being offensive in trying to say they are conducting a systems upgrade.

-Demand BitPay reverse any and all deposits made without this knowledge.

-Make complaints against BitPay and FirstView Financial, LLC to any regulatory body that will take them.

-Finally, this is a legally actionable offense. I am currently seeking an adequate law firm willing to take on a class action suit against both companies- if anyone can help in that endeavour, please comment below.

About a month ago my raspibolt node bitcoind client became unsync'd and after a month of troubleshooting am throwing in the towel. my LND with open channels is probably unrecoverable since it runs on top of bitcoind, so there goes 10mil SATs. As someone who knew nothing about Linux before doing this I'm willing to admit I got in over my head with this shit lol. It ran great for a couple months then just crapped out. I wish it would have lasted longer.

420 days! Let this sink in:

Next year, in May 2020 (in 420 days):

1) The Bitcoin daily supply will be in the 3 digits (900/day) and the BTC/block on a single digit (6.25 BTC/block) for the first time ever. Making Bitcoin even more scarce.

2) The total Bitcoins mined will be over 18 Million. Leaving fewer than 3 Million Bitcoins left till the end of mining in 2140.

BiteBTC is a SCAM !!!

Upvote this to warn people!

Please everyone who want to trade XVG or else on BiteBTC site, beware they are scammers! Lying, thieving, scammers. I have just traded some XVG on their site because it has volume trading majority as seen on CMC website: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/verge/#markets I wanted withdraw my 0.13 of BTC and instead they locked my account and sent me this bullshit:

""" Dear Trader, Your account has been temporarily disabled and is currently under compliance review, which entails an examination of recent and past account activity to ensure our users are in compliance with our terms of service.

I wrote them back that source of funds is from my Binance account, daily trading. I attached printscreen from my Binance acc to them. But i feel that this is shady as f@ck. My account has been fully verified before I did any trading with my real name and documents. And yet they come with some random bullshit reason to steal my money. Please everyone BEWARE OF BiteBTC SCAMSITE !!!!!

Upvote this post to warn other people please.

If anyone has any idea if I can contact any autority to give them trouble for this. I am European Union citizen. They are located in Singapore.

Why is CMC website promoting those thieves anyway?!

Ethereum Losing Ground to New Networks

The Ethereum network is losing ground as developers switch to other projects, various experts told Bloomberg on March 28.

Ethereum, which debuted in 2015, initially provided a platform on which developers could build decentralized apps (DApps), conduct initial coin offerings (ICOs) and write smart contracts. Many saw it as being the successor to Bitcoin (BTC).

According to Bloomberg, developers are now opting for other platforms like EOS and Stellar. In January, only 28 percent of DApps users were on the Ethereum network, while the EOS network saw 48 percent and Tron accounted for 24 percent.

Co-founder of hedge fund Multicoin Capital Management Kyle Samani said “The simple reality is that until the last six-to-nine months, there were no other options besides Ethereum. Now there are."

Ikigai crypto hedge fund founder Travis Kling said, “Owning Ethereum today is a call option on what you think the network is going to be in the future. To the extent that Ethereum competitor projects get traction with developers, with users, with DApps built on top of the platform, that will be viewed by the market as being detrimental to the overall value of Ethereum, and that can have a negative price impact on Ether."

Others say that Ethereum’s block speed of roughly 13 seconds is beginning to lag behind other networks, which can purportedly confirm transactions in under a second.

Bloomberg notes that the majority of token offerings are still reportedly conducted on the Ethereum network, and that its dedicated base of developers will keep it competitive. A member of the Ethereum Foundation reportedly said:

“The thing that really shines about Ethereum is its vibrant community. Everyone keeps building and supporting the cause regardless of the markets. All of the recent progress on Plasma and Serenity (Eth2) really speak to that. ”
