Some countries have limits on how much money you can expatriate each year. Some of these also have rules that allow you to move more money as long as it is going to certain things(building industry, land/home purchases, etc).

Ah right. Just realized I read your original post wrong. I read it as saying the orthopedic surgeon implanted metal in your body. There isn't much they'd implant that isn't MRI safe.

by sanswork 9y ago
Interesting what is your implant made of that it is definitely not safe?

by sanswork 9y ago
A lot of metal implants(most?) are safe for MRIs so your original doctor who did the implant and was aware of its composition was possibly correct and your second one was possibly just happy to agree with you.

Is it possible in Australia you're just not recognising the aboriginal words because pretty much everywhere I've lived in Australia has been full of areas named using aboriginal words. Sydney eastern suburbs have places like Bondi

The size of the reward doesn't actually change the difficulty though.

Bitcoin isn't really designed to do that. It is designed to increase difficulty with competition. If no one was interested in mining bitcoin it would be exactly the same difficulty to mine today as it was one day one.

Both Ether and Monero are uncapped and deflationary. So 2 out of the top 10 at the moment. I didn't bother checking beyond that.

I've been having groceries delivered from the internet pretty much continuously for the past 15 years or so across 3 countries and a half dozen services. What is stupid about grocery delivery?

Just a theory but is it possible that the prevalence of DATAPAC in Canada means that most merchants were use to having a dedicated always on line just for their terminals and continued to have one after DATAPAC went away?

Winning your first bet doesn't make the others +EV even if you cash out your initial investment. That's not how EV works.

>in fact probably more difficult and I would think a lot of that money is coming from people who were already made rich by other coin like bitcoin. That's why it is easier. You have a bunch of gamblers who have gotten lucky on one

Live tournament means tournaments played in person at an actual table across from actual people as oppose to online tournament played over the internet.

I believe most of these 'professional' slot players operate around the multi-machine jackpots which can sometimes get large enough to offer a positive EV on the games. They work in teams though admittedly is been a long time sinc

If you're building a service on top that is centralized why bother with the overhead of a decentralized service below? If you live in a country like Venezuela couldn't they just shut down the internet and make your savings worthle

If you're going to build a central organization on top why bother with the overhead of a distributed immutable ledger below that?

I'd say it didn't do that great of a job of that since if my memory serves right(I ran the numbers a few years ago on their early donations) they didn't really receive that much from bitcoin donations. Likely because it was

Yeah sorry I meant legal. If you're running an online drug market or a cryptolocker extortion scheme it is probably the best solution.

I think one problem a lot of people in the cryptocurrency world have is overvaluing immutability/expecting most people to demand it. Most people don't want immutable payments. If you're the consumer it is never a good deal
