I'd say, once people stop dumping money into these companies and they can no longer operate at a loss, the real price of a ride/delivery will become clear.

I feel that better types of verification are dangerous. Sure it's convenient, to scan your face or fingerprint, but it's also a way of verifying that you were with your device at that place and that time.

Coinbase is big, but not the best exchange.

That stuff is all old, banks aren't giving people trouble these days.

Canada is likely to have a BTC ETF in January, so you could say Canada is pretty open to BTC at this point (it is treated like any other exchangeable currency).

There is this guy I watch on YouTube, he had a Patreon account and a BTC address. I don't want to sign up for Patreon, so I sent him BTC.

I once talked to a manager about how meeting seemed like a waste of time, he said he loved meetings because it meant people were working together and getting things done.

Being a devil's advocate here, but why would anyone trust an American company with there data?

I get China is the bad guy and all that, but American companies are basically doing the same thing, they just have different ways of describing the process.

I don't live in London, but I live in my country's biggest city. All the jobs are here, so I can either live in the city or outside the city, with a 2-hour commute. It kind of sucks either way, but that extra hour a day, I spend with my daughter and that makes me happy.

How much pollution does gold mining produce? How much pollution does printing money produce? How much electricity (pollution) does visa use? How much pollution does any service we take for granted produce?

I'm not saying bitcoins CO2 product is good or bad, just that there are so many things that create so much CO2 that we never question or consider.

Negative press in anticipation of FaceBook-Coin?
