yes, right, on your logic, we should let drugs sell freely, because the market is always right.

on the same page with banks faking Libor, his main argument is governments can ban banks working with bitcoin and everything is dead in the water, first of all, a global enforcement of it must be done, seconds there are even constitutional rights here at play, and you can buypass banks all together, and in Japan is legal tender.

If bitcoin can challenge banks & money printing machines even a little then it kind of achieves its goal, and I think is happening already otherwise you won't see so much bad press, don't tell me bankers are just trying to inform, they are really worried about me losing money speculating on bitcoin, they didn't cared when they crashed the economy in 2008, also I saw a news story the other day, the poland central bank or so, paid 30k euros to a famous local youtuber to trash bitcoin.

the central authority is the gatekeeper in this cause, things happening at the border have nothing to do with either concepts.

I guess if there is a 50% or more chance that someone will pay more and you would make money then it makes sense, you can't win if you don't risk, those who stay on the side find comfort in calling those who risk, lucky when they win and stupid when they lose.

that was my opinion too, I even thought what a stupid name Go, is another Google thing shoved down our throats, but then I worked with it and from node.js where you install a few packages and you see npm install saying 1201 packages installed, from java where you do a change and wait 30 seconds to recompile, just to see you got it wrong, and you get a huge stack trace and you need a huge frameworks for basic web stuff, from net core that I can't get it to work on mac for the love of good, I can't think of a better language at this moment, it allows me to go to machine language go without any VM or interpreter.

Still the writer is telling the story as an absolute truth, if he claimed could double money, why that guy kept sending him money without getting back anything doubled?

And 3 years, the sentences, way to little, something doesn't add up, I'm inclined to believe that he actually was some kind of scapegoat, that yes he received money from the bank, but a cover up, also the bank didn't noticed, so much money going out without justification?

your logic is funny, is like having a busy site with a postgress db, and saying postgress is at fault, look at my mysql wordpress site with 1.3 visitors per day, how fast it is.

Ethereum will colapse on itself sooner of later, no one managed to sync a node recently.

maybe he didn't had £150 for another fine, you don't need to be that smart to see the conditions are as restrictive as being employed, wear uniform, can't work for another carrier, etc. fines, etc. yet you're classified as contractor and get no benefits.

Is clear an abuse from the company, you trying to blame the victim, is disgraceful.

Turkey indicted 30k people and ruined lots of lives, just because someone hacked their wifi and added a link to some gullen (made up state enemy) website app, and just visiting that app website would put you in jail, but their didn't even do that. Philipines is worse with drugs regular killings, you must be quite an idiot to say this.
