Did one each for you, fillippone, MPOE-PR and Elwar; marcus_of_a, miaviator and OG threads didn't get picked up oddly enough.

Ah!
Thank you very much for the support in the contest,  it I think the most voted ones were actually epic threads!

Do you think we are stupid in this thread?
Creating a whole bunch of newbie accounts and then have a debate with yourself, and believing we wouldn't figure that out? Get the fuck out of this thread or I will cut you.

dude can you do your account farming somewhere else please?
we're busy here

^^
What he said.

If OP doesn't moderate them to zero, I'll just tag them all and the problem quickly resolves itself. That was way beyond obvious.

Those kinds of accounts can really fuck up a thread if they are not nipped in the bud... so thanks guys for your negative/neutral trust commentaries on those accounts.

I believe that the "we are now the new wealthy elite, gentlemen," thread got locked because of the persistence of such abusive account creation/posting behaviors.

@Big Cat and the Stallion - you're welcome!@Dalmar = You have said nothing of substance there. Be off with you, foul spammer.

Don’t worry about the account farming, I got this.

Yeah, that's unfair, he says "please" and gets 10, I say "cut" and get 1

Arriemoller, the whiner, squeak a little and get some greasenings...

hahahahahaha

Nice that we have a bit of variety around here.  Not everyone can be sane normies, like some WO posters who I know (personally) (who shall remain unnamed).

Bitcoin 6k 2017! Bitcoin 6k 2018! Bitcoin 6k 2019! Bitcoin 2020?

I sense a pattern, here.


OMG


We might be doomed.

fillipone, if you want you can translate the thread and publish it in your local section, no problem, I think I remember that it was already published in 1 or 2 local sections of their respective countries.

They have, literally, the rest of the entire forum for that shit.

Credit to Basorexia for making the card, I hope I could provide some subtile touches 

Btw I know he knows where this is going to  #nohomo but we had a fun time....

You take the pole, I'll work the oar, and we'll try not to tip CryptoQueen into the Cherwell

Bitcoin 6k 2017! Bitcoin 6k 2018! Bitcoin 6k 2019! Bitcoin 2020?

Your post doesn't make any sense.

2019 for instance was fantastic, imagine buying on January 1 and selling at the end of June, difficult to expect such profit within such a short period outside the crypto world.
2020 will be quite poor though with a price not moving as much as usual. Could be wrong, we will see!

Didn't read much sense from you as well in the WO and way less out the WO

What would really drive worldwide adoption?

Biometric scans and mobile devices, maybe?
This means everybody must have a smartphone or device that is able to process QR codes and do OCR (scan bitcoin addresses), which is additionally offering a retina-scan camera, fingerprint sensor, saliva-analyzer or similar, to make sure that only the owner of the device can access the private key, decrypt the seed, handle transactions (and so on).

As cool and clever BTC might be, as hard and risky it is to use for average joe. He wants to flick an rfid card, maybe enter a short pin code, but that's it. Everything more inconvenient will scare him off, and average jane even more. Simple interfaces using secure backend solutions.

Don't call me names, i'm just brainstorming.
Who wants to join?

Brainstorming has a simple rule: No criticism allowed.
Instead of "You can't do X, because Y..." it's "To achieve X, you need to realize Y first, (which is dependent on A,B,C...)"
It's strictly constructive.

Anybody in?

EDIT: Maybe there's an existing thread, please point me to it if you know. If not and this starts to get somewhere, i'd start a new thread and ask the mod to move over existing comments.

[Last of the V8s]

everybody must

no

no look apart from that, you're starting with the assumptions that worldwide adoption is desirable and that bitcoin should be adapted to average people.

- Why banking was a big hindrance for early crypto companies

- The genesis of Circle Trade and their relationship with Poloniex

- Whether there is a market for 'virgin' coins

- The nature of Tether and how it is used

- The emergence of crypto volatility products

There, now I get my 30 shekels from finex and everyone's happy.

Currently credit and debit cards have this tap function for small amounts and once that is exceeded it will ask for a pin code, usually 4 digits, and you can pay for a lot of many other things. I think some have tried connecting these cards to bitcoin based accounts, but they keep getting closed down for reasons.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Many are prepared, that's why Hodl!

Past perfomance are not suggestions for the future but , are you ready if this happens?

Innovation in BTC

Relatively new initiatives and show a more complete picture of Bitcoin stack technology.

Users when using Lightning can make transactions privately on the use of additional techniques and network layers, such as Tor, from here the percentage of private use of the lightning network can be estimated by analyzing the number of channel opening transactions in the chain compared to the number of public channels outside the chain.

Very interesting chart on innovations of Bitcoin.  I hope to see many of these adopted as well as articles on how to use them.

BTC still needs a lot of work to become more secure, private and easy to use (yeah, I know some of those contradict to some degree).  Still, ease of use will help both merchants and consumers consider using BTC.  I am here in another country which has very, very little BTC usage, but is has grown since we were here some eight months ago.

Well said. This angryeta thing won't end well...

Btw, why can't I find any reference (in english) to the "scandal" over the hyper expensive refined wood and LEATHER designer chair at their home?

Anyway, here it is in spanish: https://www.elmundo.es/f5/comparte/2019/12/03/5de636f521efa070288b4615.html

The irony and hypocrisy is very strong on that one.
