I remember the times where I sold Bitcoins BTC at 140 USD, thinking this was going to be the all time high (newbie speculation). Being in the market teaches more than speaking of the market. Participate & preach.

How bad of an idea would it be if we let the the receiver of Bitcoin Cash to decide their maximum allowed 0-confirmation value before accepting the order? Maybe it would be possible to put a flag on wallet creation?

Started yesterday using the Brave browser on desktop for Mac, it's great and LastPass works. Started today using Brave for Android. Just deleted Chrome! You decide where, when and how your data is shared. New times.

Is this it? Are we to ever buy a Bitcoin BTC below 7K USD ever again? I am not sure if I am happy about it, since I still have so much FIAT I want to convert to crypto in future earnings. Well, if it's time, rise BTC!

We're moving from a trust and verify later society, towards a verify and then trust society. Don't trust, verify. It's an approach with less need for gov. The original version is a Russian proverb: Trust, but verify.

Flat tax? Make it 10% on all income streams (for individuals and companies alike) in a year (after deducting 100% of expenses the same year) = profit/loss. Make accounting simply + and - again? Accounting in 5 min.

Being a memo.cash user, social media has a new meaning.

I don't mind the LN network and I've been cheering for it to be safe, secure and easy mass adopted. ATM I like more BCH due to already solving the temp scaling issues yesterday and not like Bitcoin "maybe tomorrow".

Who would agree that cryptocurrency users will be part of the biggest transfer of wealth in history? Imagine; any asset measured in fiat currencies gets cheaper over time in crypto, making fiat currencies outcompeted.

TIP: I recommend using https://bitstamp.net to buy cryptocurrencies if you have a bank account in EU. SEPA deposits are free and purchasing cryptocurrency only cost 0.25% in fees. Withdraw fee 0.9 EUR back to fiat.

Being an early adopter: investing real money back in 2012/2013, Mt.Gox bankruptcy and buying a Trezor wallet for 1 BTC. Those moments will be something to tell my future kids.

Inform people on ideas and opportunities that are out there. Be diligent and do not stop helping people to understand. It took me years before I matured around cryptocurrencies, expect the same for newbies as well.

You have a voice, remember it while going through life. You can change the world, remember that when waking up tomorrow. You are the most important person you "should" know, remember that. Discover who you are, first.

By the end of 2017, my family decided to get rid off all credit cards. It's halfway 2018 and we've paid everything in cash, mostly with debit cards. Goal by the end of 2018 is to use BCH for more regular payments.

How can we make CoinText more secure regarding the protection of the private key? If I understand correctly, one simple leak of the software can generate the private key for all phone numbers.

First time I personally see the 1MB breakthrough on txstreet.com happening for BCH, 2nd bus in operation!

I eat and sleep crypto. I can't take my mind off it, it clearly changes things from a geek perspective. Now we only need more smart and passionate marketing people to get onboard, crypto is getting ripe enough.

"There will be closed systems that will be faster and cheaper." This will be (and still is) our hardest sell towards regular citizens of the world with getting them to use cryptocurrency instead of digital currency.

It's a privilege to be among the first users of memo.cash, I feel I've struck gold and I want so badly to share the good news with everyone. It's not greed and speculation that drives me, it's discovery and adventure!

Just sms-texted my first BCH transaction with https://cointext.io from Mexico. Worked flawlessly and shows that BCH can make movement of money instant and borderless for anyone worldwide. Anyone else who tried?

With GDPR now in effect, would data locked into a blockchain forever be a problem? What do you think? I think there will be filters (which will be havens for censorship) in all sorts that would be mandatory by law.
