Russia is exploring ways to create a “cryptorubble”

 

“This instrument suits us very well for sensitive activity on behalf of the state. We can settle accounts with our counterparties all over the world with no regard for sanctions...

the cryptocurrency would be the same ruble, but its circulation would be restricted in a certain way...and allow the Kremlin to track its every move."

Egypt’s Dar Al Iftaa yesterday issued a Fatwa (Islamic ruling) that deems the Bitcoin virtual currency as forbidden by Islam.

...

 

“Bitcoin could be harmful to the country’s social and economic security,” Dar Al Iftaa said, stressing that the currency could break through the national security and central financial systems.

 

The Egyptian Grand Mufti’s Counsellor, Magdy Ashour, said that the currency “is used directly to fund terrorists,” explaining that its transactions threaten major damage to the economy.

 

“It has no set rules, which is considered as a contract annulment in Islam, that is why it is forbidden.” Ashour added...

I just created my own cryto -...

 

CyniCoin !!!

 

 

 

CyniCoin’s “market capitalization” is, of course, NOT a mathematical hoax.

 

CyniCoin’s trx speed is measured in msec s, NOT days.

 

CyniCoin’s trx costs are 20 cents, not 20 dolla

 

Most importantly - When you “buy” CyniCoin’s, you own something other than just an entry on a shared public spreadsheet

"Attempts to address rising inequality with the old tools are fueling frustration rather than actual solutions" CHS.

And - yes, to me, crytos are an old tool ... or at best only improvements on old tools - much like replacing a wood shovel handle with a metal rod surrounded by ergonomically correct fiber glass or plastic and adding graduated thickness and reinforcing ribs to the shovel itself... still just a fuckn shovel... same with cryto 'money'

 

... and so re stealing it

...

> ‘just bidness’ ways of stealing

You Can’t Trust the “Trusted” Intermediaries

Find your own link... news comes out about a Ponzi or theft or ‘loss’ at a cryto exchange almost daily...

 

(and don’t forget the)

> ‘legal’ ways of stealing

In that link some idiot commented “Can't work because the futures market is too small. There are only a few thousand btc in futures contracts traded each day. It's peanuts compared to the actual bitcoin exchanges. In order for what you are describing to work, the futures market would need to be pretty large compared to the actual bitcoin markets.”

Reality is more like - if the ‘need’ arises, ‘they’ can create contracts with a button push and overwhelm ANY buying pressures with shorts or vv.

 

“Bitcoin futures; the perfect vehicle to manipulate Bitcoin

Bitcoin futures provides a great venue for the big sharks to swallow up the silly sardines hoping to strike it rich. The big players can now manipulate the bitcoin market via the futures market. They can use fake money (worthless paper) to push it up or down, much the same way they did and are still doing with the precious metals markets. Which illustrates the lie behind the “Bitcoin is different” nonsense; Bitcoin is nothing but digital fiat; in some ways, its worse as anyone can issue their own cryptocurrency.” Sol Palha

 

and mentioned before the real 'legal' way to steal it hasn't fully kicked in yet... tax it in and out

 

>>> and finally - self ‘stealing’ from self

It doesn't make short term financial sense to them to build out the back office enough to process all the "know your customer" regs, so they are just slogging through a few backed up apps per day....Getting cut ahead in the que depends on how much 'money' you have for initial deposit. :)

(I wish it weren’t my opinion... )  ... but it is my opinion that the anonymity aspect of ALL crytos and blockchain activity  is none existent and has been for some time...

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!
