yes and sign up at least for the free XLM.
get a Coinbase account for depositing hard cash. (i should maybe get an affliate link?) strapon ready for the lambo moon etc.
its not about being at the begining or being faster, its just not a valid solution. HTTP is for communication to data source, blockchain is for storaging of data. you might use a blockchain to hold a website (inefficently) or more likely apply authentication or track usage. you wouldnt use it...
absolutly true, Bitcoin uses as more power than most countries execept the larger, developed ones. then there are all the other though most use more efficent, less power hungry methods or not large enough. will probably be the largest user of power in the world by middle of century if it continues.
not by any blockchain. its an inefficient way to do what HTTP does. too many cryptos have hyperbolic claims, though there are some interesting technologies, most of them are simply rehashes of previous projects grabbing our money. hopefully we pick ones that get hyped up and buy our Lambos...
i see that the Sun and Express run stories on it, online at least, so probably.
one key difference though is that general view is cautious, people are aware of it but not necessarily involved. i hear it talked about in office (IT so not quite general public), the view is cynical and dont...
i sticking as i've nothing to lose, and much to gain if the hubris turns out right. i've always seen strong parallels to dotcom and when I look at the Nasdaq chart and the current Bitcoin chart, we're see its near same as end of 2000. Bitcoin needs to steady and stay at around 10k for a week...
eToro is not an actual exchange, more like a spread betting business that allows you to buy a position without owning the underlying asset. that may work for you, and may be better when things turn south or simply very busy. it wouldnt work if you want to hold the bitcoin locally or trade on...
absolute carnage in cryptoland. all because a rumour the chinese will ban crypto. again. though actually this time they do mean it. diversification working against people too, as bitcoin itself doing less badly than many others. i have one tiny slither of green :laugh:
the "utility token" thing is emerging to avoid the ire of US SEC. did you cash in your chips yet? i understand Binance is now open, get some winnings on to the next table.
curious what made you dip your toe into this particular? i haven't seen it, though may be missing from the ICO sites i use. they've raised a decent amount of money for something with so little profile on bitcointalk. ping the refereal over to me i'm going to have look at this one.
there are exchanges and there are exchanges. the gateway exchanges that swap real cash $ and £ for crypto are tied down by a lot of regulation regards know your customer and anti money laundering. this will not change, there is not a realistic way for this to become decentralised. and before...
i haven't heard of an exchange that doesnt have complaints about withholding cash or shutting down or locking trading at very important times. that said most of the gateway exchanges will let you sell the major crypto, then you could let it sit on account in £ € $ and withdraw later. withdrawal...
i wasn't impressed that they dont know the difference between the Internet and WWW. It's a common misunderstanding, unacceptable though for an organisation in this field. seems the whole project is based on the CEO being linked to Jack Ma, and thats only based on his own Bio. dodgy.
well done holding them, enough to buy a Ferrari? :lolol: all the exchanges seem to crap themselves when a major coin rockets up. you may want to try an exchange to switch XRP to LTC, ETH or BCH, then transfers to Coinbase. i've been using Binance (have a referal link i can PM, wont break...
