How would you go about tracing the steps? Are there some large database of OEM factories where you can contact them in English (assuming China). I too would love to know exactly where and who made it, how many middle-men have stepped in w

Yeah the fake reviews are bad for business. I'm buying much less because I know knock off Chinese white label products are being marked up 5~7x the wholesale price from Alibaba. I don't like being used as an arbitrage opportunity.

With the recent series of news on bitcoin, it seems like the media and gov is increasingly painting a picture of Bitcoin as a thing for selling drugs, people and terrorism. Bitcoin maximalists will cry victim but it's no use, everybody

An overwhelming sense of relief washes over me as I read your comment. It's obvious the author of the article doesn't know what the fuck she's talking about .

I'm glad this submission was flagged as I've done so as well out of sheer disbelief. It's baffling why somebody who spent so much time building up their reputation would throw it under the bus for ideological cause. You can s

No. I don't see how distributing new money is going to automatically increase the price elasticity of demand universally across all consumer sectors when the net worth of recipients will not have the same amount of money left in their

I'm not sure using Stellar is wise as the majority is owned by a small group of people, much smaller than Bitcoin, which creates conflict of interest and not future SEC proof. on a side rant: So...many...coins...I too have something ca

If you gave everybody a dollar, wouldn't businesses increase their prices, and consumers be okay with that price increase because they have more disposable income?

For some people like me it doesn't matter if I have social media or not, nobody notices. I decided there are more fruitful endeavours than taking part in the commercial and absurd nature of almost all social media networks--it enco

I feel like there are whales that simply manipulate the price based on news. There's little evidence to suggest bitcoin has any usage in zimbabwe in practical day to day usage. Therelies the problem with bitcoin, why would someone in
