Money as a system of control

Andreas M. Antonopoulos is the most articulate and inspiring voice Bitcoin has. Despite his enormous technical expertise he sees the fundamental proposition of crytp freedom as the lowest layer of everything.

When I read the title I thought this was about capitalism and making people dependent upon money. Instead this is about the fact that government issues currency and can use that to control everything it touches basically, it's a shocking eye opener.

bitcoin vs ethereum

What are the main differences between bitcoin and ethereum?

+8

ed's edibles 9.6/10

Bitcoin is a platform for money - like an open network for accounting software vaguely.

Ethereum is a platform for more complex contracts between computers - like an open network for business law. The ETH coin is a subset of all this.

+5

defjelly

Just to expand on "social accounting" its basically a bunch of computers agreeing that a coin moved from one to another, with all the records being opened and "confirmed", thats why you wait for confirmations after you send coins.

+13

she who betrayed us

The motivation behind them is hugely different. bitcoins were created by libertarian types, looking to create a free world on the internet.

Ethereum was more about technical perfection for such an effort. It's not only a coin but a language for commerce between machines.

Why BTC when you have STABLECOINS

Why BTC when you have STABLECOINS

I have placed a fair few orders here but never posted before. I love it. However it's just a fact that BTC is expensive to move around and the USD value fluctuates wildly. So why not implement a similar system but with stablecoins? A stablecoin on Ethereum is very cheap to transact with and the USD value is... 1 USD.

These are the main ones:

-Tether (USDT): created by the Bitfinex exchange, there are like 4 billion of these in circulation, but it is backed by dollars held in some dodgy bank in the bahamas (or not!!!). May be one to avoid IMO.

-USD Coin (USDC): similar concept but backed by Coinbase. About 400mil in circulation but way more reputable and cleared with US regulators.

-DAI: backed by ETH held as collateral without a dollar in sight, algorithmically pegged to USD. A remarkably clever system that's the closest thing to a 'true' decentralised stablecoin. If you are a clever clogs you will enjoy reading about this one. About 80 mil in circulation.

It gets better... if you build a system that works with one ERC20 token, it works with all tokens! Merchants can get paid in whichever stablecoin they please.

Thoughts? I appreciate BTC has been around the longest and reliable software is hard to come by...

+8

ThePopeOfDope 9.9/10

to my knowledge the stablecoins are more centralised and they can "freeze funds" whereas the worst thing with bitcoin is tainted coins and there are multiple ways around that.

a decentralised stablecoin where the risk of frozen funds isn't there would be perfect

+5

foster

Really good point, they are ultimately reliant on smart contracts, code that executes buy and sell purchases in dollars (or pounds, euro etc) to keep the exchange rate stable.

It gets pretty complex because the markets for these coins are small and manipulable so they build in protective trading strategies to the contract code. Even if the code is open source no one can say if these behaviors will work and keep the exchange rate stable.

This is my gripe with stable coins, they have downside risk with no upside potential.

what determines the price off bitcoin?

im not an econ guy but im really curious how professionals look at this.

+7

guruofinfo

Pretty much all coins vary in value like stocks do. There is finite supply of coins based on mining, which is using processor power to solve pieces of the block chain which gets more difficult as it progresses. However no matter the amount of coins that are availible if they are not wanted then the price goes down.

Often times certain events influance the demand for the currancy. The reason it went down this time was due to a Coinbase announcement that they where not going to be allowing BCH trades for a specific period after the hard fork that happened just recently. A big BTC holder sokd off a shiload of coin which started it to drop and of course others started following suit and sold off their coin as well. There are also things like market corrections, people pulling out to invest in stock or alt coins and a bunch of other random shit. Some of which is predictable and others very much not so.

Hope that kinda sumarizes things.

+1

dooooy

Shouldn't that coinbase announcement help BTC as it's a substitute for BCH?

+2

guruofinfo

The cryto world is even more fickle then the actual stock market. CoinBase is one of the biggest market places / sellers of crypto so it put a lot of people on edge. Been downward a lot since then.

Supply and demand. Not being short here but every price comes down to that.

+6

Franklins 9.7/10

OK what determines supply and demand?

+4

bojack

Supply is limited by mining difficulty so it's always growing at a slower rate. Basically coins are getting harder and harder to mine.

+4

Bazza 9.9/10

So the bitcoin value should be increasing not decreasing?

+5

1st National Dispensary 9.8/10

Demand is another matter, who buys bitcoins? Besides biggaz? Speculators, "fin-tech" traders of every size and shape but they all look for one thing: a quick profit. Their dealings amongst themselves is all game theory and meme-pumping. So lots off ups and downs.

+6

big Joshua

This is why the long term trend is up. The way this mob looks at things is "asset classes" and "exposure". Once the portfolio managers have permission from their elders crypto is declared an asset class. Then the managers are actually required to have exposure to it.

Crypto currency trading

Hi guys, just interested if anyone here trades any crypto currency / altcoins on binance or coinbase ect..

I need a really really good reason for an alt coins existence otherwise its btc or eth. There are enough forks and scams and me toos. I like filecoin because it solves a real problem, distributed storage.

guruofinfo

There are a few good altcoins that I can get behind. They have a good purpose or at least intend to when they catch on or when the time comes. However the volatility is horrible. They are good for doing some swing trading when you can spot one that is going to take off but lack stability. But then at the time of this post so do BTC and the other big coins.

+5

guruofinfo

I do a little alt coin trading on Binance but more so short holds for some small but quick proffits then put it back into BTC or ETH depending which is on the rise. Just play around with trading when my stock friends give me a heads up that something is going to break out into a bull run or if I am checking out the market and see one that looks promissing and on the rise.

If you are in one of those countries you are going to pay a premium just to get coins and given the privacy of lbc that's worth it right there. But more importantly the thing with bitcoins is the fees are a fraction of the change in price from volatility. In the time you worry about the exchange rate from any particular trader the market moves more than this.

The "best" way (from my POV) for you to "lose" btc is for you to send them to me here --- 1EVpX3nEJ83q7LkaGaYffECrBrTjVXFwkt

The "worst" way to "lose" your btc is for you to either forget your priv key/password and/or for you to publish your wallet info online.

Either scenario is the same; you don't have those btc anymore. But, tbh; I prefer choice 1...

+2

Lankybastard

I was going to say buying them. I've lost plenty just by buying them. Don't wait to use them. You can lose a mint waiting. They even skim them from your USD wallet, not a lot but l thought it wasn't possible. I'm talking about Coinbase. I haven't tried other sellers because most don't do business in Georgia and the ones who do charge about 50% for every Bitcoin dollar you buy. Hopefully, this website will start accepting bch. From what l hear it has almost no fees when you buy it and send it and it's easier to use than btc.

Maybe afterwards we can go to Disneyland or some shit like that. Just don't try to get me to go to San Francisco. I couldn't handle being that close to the 9th circuit.

It's the nature of bitcoin that causes this. The transaction confirmations we wait for for require very complex and duplicative processing across a worldwide network of computers. Just think about the security for an open network like this to work and you can start imagine the horsepower.

+0

Lankybastard

Granted, but as l said, l always question the source when it comes to climate change. The people who believe in it will say anything to advance their agenda. Now, if we're talking about CERN, that's understandable. They use enough energy to power a large city for a week each time they use it. Also have to take into account the price for electricity has risen quite a bit since last year. I paid over $400 on my electric bill last summer. That's after l used to pay $200 during the same period the year before. I think that should be taken into account as well. It could, on its face, look like more power is being used when it's actually just a rise in price for said electricity. I've been around long enough to know the length people will go to to push their beliefs down everyone's collective throat. This could be one of those times.

Coinbase charged me $31 to send $7. Of course l didn't find that out until after l had tried to send $38, expecting to charged 3.5%. I tried to get a response from them but to no one's surprise, they ignored me. They should be grateful they're located on the left coast and I'm on the east coast. This definitely qualifies as reason to make a personal appearance. Fucking leeches! Before anyone makes a suggestion about trying someone else out, there is no one else that does business in Georgia, at least no one who charges less than 50%. ATMs are also out of the question.

If you have your coins they are in a bitcoin wallet (like blockchain.info's) or an exchange account (like coinbase). Either way you will see a button for "send bitcoins" click on it and it asks for an address.

When you buy an item on little biggy you get a bitcoin address to pay for it. You get the address when you click on the "pay now" button. Just copy and paste it and you're done. You usually see confirmation in a minute.

Relax and remember if you have any problem there is no way to "lose" bitcoins, the record of where the coins went is public. There is no " I sent the check in the mail "nor " I never got your payment.

bit easy really 10/10

Well said, I would add that multiple well rated traders on local bitcoins are a much better time investment than multiple exchanges:
1) Lbc gives you multiple traders and limits with one registration.
2) Limits with each trader raise much faster than the exchanges.
3) Your reputation with every trader goes up as you work with each one.
