  1. How far do you think ripple can go? It´s market cap is already pretty high and I don´t see it overtaking Bitcoin or Ethereum.
  2. Crypto Marketcap has reached 0,5t trillion and every cab driver and their mother are talking about bitcoin. Kinda has me worried a little....
  3. Basically a USB stick. You play the code onto it and that´s it. I´m up around 100% since the summer. Thinking about selling it all and going all in on some very cheap but promising altcoins. The big coins probably won´t 10 fold anytime soon. If you catch a good small one though....
  4. Roman how do you think the CME futures will affect the price of bitcoin. I understand that the contracts are not backed by bitcoin but cash settled still the more mainstream exposure is going to move the prive I think. However up or down is the question...
  5. Something else roman, how does your china assumption relate to them actually pretty much banning crypto for their own people? Simply reigning in of their people on the one hand and playing the international markets on the other?
  6. Damn, roman making me feel good, although my gains aren´t anywhere near seven figures. Btw, I need to add you on fb... Trading this thing is bit of a problem though. You have to keep the coins, or the cash on the exchange which is a risk. How do you deal with that roman?
  7. What are you trying to say? That´s the same for every market out there be it stocks, houses, cars.......you name it. Of course there will be crashes and corrections on the way as there have been numerouse times already, but the blockchain technology is here to stay and bitcoin is finite in numbers. I´m long. Bitcoin is the value transfer side of blockchain while ethereum is the technological side of it.
  8. Will it ever though? Especially with the possibility of wallstreet and mainstreet money soon getting into the crypto market?
  9. The MMA community seems to be a little naive when it comes to PEDs. Pretty much every elite level professional athlete in every sport is on some kind of a banned substance. I think a recent study had the nubmer at around 75%, I personally think it´s closer to 90%. I hope Jon goes to rizin and juices his way up to heavyweight. Would love to see his potential realised!
  10. Yeah, BCH was free cash, however I´m not touching BTC, or BCH, risk reward ratio just isn´t there for me
  11. You mean Ether, yeah, but BTC is making all time highs almost weekly, ether is still strugling way below it´s all time high. When BTC rises Ether used to rise too, that´s not really happening anymore but when btc falls it does pull ether down. So their relationship is has decoupled on the way up and recouples on the way down. 400%
  12. Yeah, their newly developing almost inverse relationship to each other has me slightly confused. Ether just doesn´t seem to be able to really get going as of last. However, made a nice 300% ROI with Antshares/Neo within last two weeks. Should have bought WAY more.
  13. People need oversight. There is no doubt that the my money cetrainly wasn´t used to it´s fullest potential. Any system has short comings at any rate. I am self made an I still don´t have a problem with giving a sustainable amount of my earnings to other people who are not. Fortis I´ve been reading your posts here for years now and it´s always pretty much the same thing. Self made people this, selfe made people that... You have to understand that people come in different shapes and views. Just because someone is self made doesn´t mean that he or she has to have the same views as you do. It also doesnt´mean that he or she is a "good" person, not even that he or she is especially intelligent(have met way richer people than me who were plain dumb) or even proficient at the thing they are doing. Do you know what it means though? That he or she was at the right place at the right time. Nothing more, nothing less. Every decision you have ever made was made by a brain and a body that wer formed by you genes, you mothers genes, you father genes, your environment, your nutrition, your social life, your hormonhousehold. Do you see were I´m geting at here? Google determinism and take your time to let it sink in. Look at the literature in regards to free will and decision making. You might than understand why I have no problem giving some of my income away for the greater good. If you can´t understand that than I´m sorry that you are so very close minded to your own beliefs and morals. Giving away also makes rational and logical sense. In every society, the top earners are a very small percentage of the total population. If you don´t take care of those beneath you they will levergae the only weapon that they have, and that is their overwhelming number in contrasts to the rich. Ever heard of the french revolution? I guess you understand where I am trying to get at. Again, capitalism is a model that we needed, just as feudalism was before. However it´s running it´s course and we will soon be in need of a new system thanks to massive technological advancements. Btw, let´s have a look at some of the worlds self made billionaires: http://www.mirror.co.uk/tech/billionaire-c...-income-9214279 http://fortune.com/2017/05/26/mark-zuckerb...l-basic-income/ http://www.businessinsider.de/bill-gates-b...2?r=US&IR=T
  14. How old are you again? Politics should be about just that, policies and not a game of ego boosting. Those games only lead to terrible decisions in the long run. So for your sake and for your countries sake grow the fcuk up!
  15. In regards to healthcare, it´s really an easy question to ask. At some point a society has to decide wether it wants to redistribute some of it´s wealth to those who are sick, to the elderly and the less fortunate ones. I personally don´t know of any hard working, selfmade man/woman who would think twice about the answer. I have made the experience that most of the time those who were the luckiest in life are crying the most and those who worked the hardest have no fear of sharing. Last year I had to pay about 30% of my income to social security and that hurts. However, loooking at my grandfather who has cancer I wouldn´t want it any other way here in europe. Not only for his sake but for all peoples sake.
  16. It will happen. Thanks to the dawn of AI, clean and cheap energy with fusion reactors and other technological advancements. It will. See my post above. However, I feel you and anybody else who doesn´t want it. We as humans need something to distinguish us from other humans. We want to feel better than the person next door. We want to feel and think that we deserve much more because we did this and that while the other person didn´t. It is an ego thing but it was also necessary to advance civilisation come to the point were we are today. However it it won´t be anymore very shortly. Think of capitalism or the inequality economy as a vehicle that get´s us to the next stage where we don´t need it anymore. Societies will change massively. Interesting times ahead.
  17. In short time restricted eating( the only difference to IF is to align your fasting window so that you don´t eat after 6PM) seems to be one of the biggest health defining factors after correcting for all other factors(smoking, obesety and so on). More important than what you eat seems to be WHEN you eat as the insulin restitance of your body decreases around the evening time.
  18. Say Robster have you ever postet something that was not from either FOX, Breitbart or RT??
  19. Funny how this didn´t get a single response. Probably becaue it´s daddy, a resepected, veteran user. Anybody else had better put their flame suits on... I don´t see anyone but alternate media questioning wether the attack was really carried out by the syrian regime. It seems unlikely that assad is that stupid at this point, no?
  20. Thinking about buying some ether. Bitcoin has me wondering how high it can go. Seems a little dangerouse at this point.
  21. Terrible analogy? I´m sure you know the concept that is called the " paradox of power". You overuse your power and people will slowly start pissing in your soup anyway they can(most of the time you won´t even notice until it´s too late). Go and fcuk over you worker for the overtime that he worked by not not paying him. How often you gonna get away with it before he is gonna quit on you, after he deliberately fucks up the work he does? It works the same way in politics and between nations. And in regards to morals what I was trying to say is that this kind of sentiment creates a "we" and "us" view across the world. It divides and radicalizies. Atleast to some extent, yes. I don´t know how your welfare system works so I can´t really comment. We had to evolve the way we evolved as a species to get to a certain point of advancement. The fittest/strongest/smartest/richest survives had to be the law of nature and society(capitalism) until we as a species and as societies can/could overcome that very law thanks to enough technological advancement thanks to that very law. We are close to that point now(atleast in some regions of the world) were we can render our old ways obsolete. Trump is a relict of that old world gasping for it´s last breaths. If science is correct in less than a 100 years robots will do all the work and people will have whatever they want without doing anything and this kind of talk will be gone(unless we catapult ourselves to the stoneage through nuclear warfare ).
  22. I agree, he will pull it off with mexico. I am more worried about china and russia(I doubt him and putin will stay friends) and also about the way he seems to be changing morals and the view of the public on what´s a good, respectful and productive way to treat each other in general. He is radicalizing the world and that is ok to some extent to break up the old system, but I fear he will be taking it too far.
  23. That´s actually one of the most intelligent statements I´ve seen from you. Of course you can´t just fcuk over people and "stomp their heads" if you have to deal with them ever again(unless you are in a position of absolut power, think kid and parents which is seldomly the case in the political world). Anyone who tells you otherwise(here, or anywhere else in life) has either no clue or is just lying to himself/stroking his ego about this whole trump thing. But don´t take my word for it. Go try it out in real life. Or just go read some books some CIA/FBI hostage negotiation tactics, or harvard business tactics if you want some more theory first.
  24. Hillary was a monster but she atleast would have been movable by popularity, votes and the media(which is part of democracy, to be moved by general opinion). Trumps ego is so huge that he simply doesn´t care and runs unchecked. Dangerouse ind the long run...
  25. Really? The US has killed more civilians, invaded more countries and orchestrated more regime changes than any other other country in the history of the world(even under obama the warmachine kept on rolling). So when was the las time the US didn´t say "we come first"? The hypocrisy is crazy... People don´t understand basic human and social behaviour. His "ballsy" and "hard" talk against other countries, the media and people with certain ethnic beckgrounds will only lead to them feeling antagonized and break ties that were constructed over decades. If you act tough the other side will repay you sooner or later(that´s one of the reasons why we have terrorism in this world, DUH!). The thought that you can just scare someone(countries, groups etc) into subjugation and that they will fall in line indefinitely is ridicilouse(it´ll work in the short term). I know that way of thinking comes easy and feels natural but it just doesn´t work. Politics is not a game of toughnes it is a game of intelligence, alignin interests and moving/changing people. Go read a book on human psychology and herd behaviour. I´m actually amazed. There are alot of people on here who have businesses. Since when has the take it or fcuk you approach worked with any of your businesses in the long run? When have you gained a healthy and productive relationship/partner with any customer that way? It personally bit me in the ass sooner or later most of the time.
