Agree, lived in Tokyo, San Francisco, Kentucky and visited many cities. Small towns with “nothing to do” are the places for real camaraderie

So we’ve from government issued inflationary currencies to multinational scrip backed by government currencies. Sounds like bitcoin is a better hedge than ever against today’s economic environment.

They're building EOS, they're probably going to be dumping Ethereum for the forseeable future. Pretty interesting strategy to be honest.

Imagine raising your capital with the stock of another public company, then your proceed to continuously devalue said public company by dumping your shares in order to gain liquid capital to build your product.

Edit: The most interesting thing to come out of the cryptocurrency is that the lines between equity and currency have become very blurred

"The only restriction is that a potential investor has to prove that they realise that the value of an investment can go down as well as up. That, in other words, they're not an idiot, and won't demand that the government "do something about it" when their investment tanks."

So you're saying that isn't possible? Very few people in the ICO space are demanding the government do anything.

Also live outside of the US and you'll realize how untrue your statement is. You'll see very quickly that many services that deal with asset trading are region locked (Robin Hood) for example

Thank you. ICO's fundamentally change the nature of global marketplace dynamics. Whether its stocks, bonds, tokens, or whatever other digital asset, it is now shown that these items can be traded by anyone, anywhere, and anytime.

This is a fundamental shift in how markets have traditionally worked. Accessible by few, siloed by regional boundaries.

This post comes off as another angry bitcoin maximalist, upset that blockchain isn't being used the way they want it to be used

Huobi and OkEx have been doing this for years and years. The CEO of Binance had a nice (now deleted) rant on reddit, calling them out for this. Solution: Don't use the sketchy as hell exchanges

You’ve reminded me of the horrors of “keep, problem, try”

Let’s discuss this every week, and then not take any actual action

NEO is still very raw, and it takes a lot of work to get involved, however it’s a tight nit developer community and some serious opportunities to get involved and shape the project. Source: I am active in the developer community and have a company building on NEO

Pick a consortium style chain instead? dBFT or dPOS would be great for a national, distributed currency which a government still exerts a great amount of influence over
