    SEC comments about The inevitable adoption of BTC and potentially a BTC ETF. The masses are adopting and there’s no stopping it.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2018 07:46 PM PDT

    It's just a matter of time with promising comments and outlook around the acceptance by the SEC of a BTC ETF. The world (outside of the US) is rapidly adopting BTC as a peer to peer payment system, while those whose countries are in turmoil are finding BTC as a safe haven to protect their wealth as their currencies devalue at a rapid rate.

    Virtual currencies are commodities according to the Federal Court

    Every noobie alive is calling for crypto to go lower.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2018 04:32 PM PDT

    Seriously. I don't think I have heard a single noob in the last two months not say that BTC is going to 5k or below. Every where I turn, every single day, some amateur who knows very little about crypto, trading, or both informs me that BTC is heading lower.

    For that reason, and that reason alone, the contrarian in me says the bottom is probably in.

    Rather than downvoting me, please discuss.

    SF Blockchain Week

    Posted: 03 Oct 2018 01:00 PM PDT

    I wanted to make a post here to discuss what is going on in San Francisco. We started planning SF Blockchain Week and had two goals in mind: 1) Get the best speakers and content possible and 2) Get as many individuals from the community to join this event and focus on the tech rather than hype and speculation. The support has been amazing. We are very proud of the speakers and workshops that will be present at this event. We had no idea that this wouldn't be the important part.

     

    What we didn't realize would happen is the movement that this has started. There are over 75 satellite events that are taking place around the main events we planned and all of their tickets are FREE. There are several other conferences taking place around this time and they have all reduced their prices. By pricing our tickets extremely low (less than cost of food provided) and giving hundreds away to developers who apply, we have forced other events to stop being extractive and compete on both quality of content and ticket value. It really is amazing and I personally think it is a step in the right direction. In order to push this space forward we need to engage and educate as many people as possible. No more absurd ticket prices and cash grabs; we as a community should no longer accept that. We hope that you can attend and would love for you to help #ChangeTheNarrative!

     

    tl;dr Let's stop charging the community so much to learn about blockchain. I see so much focus on institutions and regulation but the real focus should be on education, at all levels, and the rest will follow.

    Cryptocurrency. The race to relevance through practical applications for the real world. — Crypto Calvin

    Posted: 04 Oct 2018 02:34 AM PDT

    This is why I hold.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2018 10:59 AM PDT

    I frequently think back on, what if i got in BTC in 2011... i'd be so rich!

    But here's the thing. If i paid $0.30 for BTC...

    I would have sold at $1 - 300% gain

    I would have sold at $5 - 1600% gain

    I would have sold at $10 - 3300% gain

    I would have sold at $50, at $100, at $500, at $1,000, etc etc.

    I would have sold 100 times over before it ever got to $20,000 (or $6,000 for that matter). There's zero chance i would have any left today.

    All would have been excellent gains on my initial investment. But I wouldn't be rich.

    Assets with high short-term volatility risk have higher returns over the long term.

    Stop checking the prices every day.

    Stop 'taking profits' on the way up.

    Let the natural course of a breakthrough technology market do the work for you.

    Just buy, and wait.
