I agree entirely, even though I am not from the US. The US has a mental health and poverty problem, NOT a gun problem. Plenty of examples of wealthy countries with lots of guns (Sweden, Switzerland) and little to no gun violence.

If you're THAT good, why do you need an incubator? If you're that good, why does an author need a publisher? Or why does an actor need an agent? Etc...

Considering that it was touted as the future digital CURRENCY until up to about 2 years ago, it has failed horribly in that regard. Its no longer being used on darknet either, that place has been taken by monero. Bitcoin failed as a currenc

I am not talking about the speed of vaccine approval. The only thing I am seeing is that the UK is vaccinating at an incredible pace compared to even the richest European countries.

We'll see. Seems like not being part of a larger "union" has allowed them to start vaccinating at 3 times the pace of its European neighbours. Historically, power removed further from the people does not benefit the people. T

The name "form recognizer" is perhaps poorly given, considering it can detect much more than forms (eg invoices, receipts). You can create your own custom models as well. Disclaimer: I work for creator of said service

Blockchain =/= decentralized, read: Tether. Most popular stablecoin, yet one guy holds the power to create, alter or delete wallets/coins. Something that runs on the blockchain can be controlled by a singular entity.

I feel like it's a matter of time until the central banks release a coin (gold backed?) and kick Bitcoin and all other crypto's out. Keeps them in power, uses the advantages of crypto.

Sure, almost all central banks over the world have printed an astronomical amount of money. Even though they may state there is no significant inflation, I dont buy it and neither do many other economists. Stock prices, house prices and now

I think the coming of companies like this signals the end of the bull market, the bubble is close to bursting. Every milkman is trying to get rich on the stock market. It was like this in 99. It was like this in 08. And before the german ma

Basic economics, btc is denominated in $, if the dollar becomes worth less (increased supply), you will need more $ per coin. But that doesnt explain the 10, 20x of bitcoin by itself.

The only incentive to write articles like this is to convince others to buy, consequently making more money yourself. This is a pitch, not a fairly supported argument.

Another company shilling a coin, hoping to convince many more greater fools. Only goal of this article is to convince you to buy, and to transfer a part of your wealth to them.

"I think about this every hour, if not several times an hour." Maybe it's time to lay off the news media & apocalyptical documentaries for a while. Can't imagine this is a very healthy way to live.

3. The next day, November 2, 2018, Tether made the first of five transfers ultimately totaling $475 million from its bank account at Deltec Bank to Bitfinex’s account at Deltec Bank. At the same time, a corresponding transfer was made from

There are also rumors that Deltec has been hacked, which is the bank Tether supposedly uses to "back" the Tether stablecoin. Supposedly there is one dollar for each tether, but its looking more and more like that is not the case.
