You're hitting the nail on the head on this one. Couldn't have said it myself. Majority of current exchanges are playing it absolutely fast-and dangerous. It's no surprise with new exchanges popping up like mushrooms. I'

It's not reversing per se, it's like the transaction never happened. They send the money from their address to the exchange, the exchange credits that money. Then they release their chain (that they have been building privately).

You're only describing how it works with Bitcoin and other coins that are forked (git-forked) from it. Some blockchains require a higher amount of consensus to fork (blockchain fork).

Yeah, this should be renamed, or somehow shown to not be news.

Exactly, not to mention the definition of a morally ambiguous event is in itself already debatable and... morally ambiguous.

Not sure how this relates to it being provenly effective for "correct" posture.

Is it really honest to say "gym made my posture worse", when actually it stemmed from overtraining certain muscle groups over-proportionately? What do you think of the thesis that the right gym exercises might tune your muscle

I wouldn't be so brash as to just dismiss the substantial amount of research into muscles and posture. Especially without presenting any actual evidence yourself. After reading most comments here, it seems Alexander is an alternative a

Weirdest thing I've read in a long while. The Author's comments refer to an internet forum thread[0] in German which discusses a German news article from this April.[1]However, it turns out this article is an April Fools text. Jus

What a weird example. So just because now, at this point in time and place, YOU don't need decentralization --> It's useless? What a privileged thing to say. Please reconsider and think a bit more broadly, what could be the val

Dissapointing. I was looking forward to how you would try and debate my points. So you agree that there is value in decentralization? I'm not here to debate the profits or moneymaking schemes. My only thesis is that Bitcoin has value,

Thanks for these links, usually when talking about it not being decentralized the source is either Forbes or Business Insider. Let's see what your sources have in store. EDIT: [0] https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.03998

You seem to be slowly turning to the side of it being an investment in the end. You start out with lambasting bitcoin and crypto as nothing but a ponzi scheme, yet by the end of this paragraph you admit that >If it develops that foundati

It can be argued that over 50% of the value of gold is not at all related to it being able to be consumed. Dollars cannot be consumed, or more broadly a network cannot be consumed. Yet one can enjoy the benefits of this network and this can

I initially agreed with the parent comment, but you drive a good bargain as well with yours. Still, I think the actual problem is not that it needs to be defined, but that we are trying to define it in the scope of singular current definiti

I don't think it's not easy to classify bitcoin as just one certain category. It's a community-driven entity which purpose is constantly changing. I think it ought to have a completely new category.

Not sure if "weird, fad-based franchise" is the correct term here. It's more of just a basic trend cycle in effect. Froyo places are far from dead, it's just that after the initial uptrend with a place on every corner, i

How are you not being tracked when your transaction will be on the blockchain? I can't believe we're still at this argument.
