Dont listen to mayax he stated many times he is happy we lost money.
He is the guy who goes to terminal ill children and say that its their own fault that they are dying.
I am the one who is saying that the era for unregulated exchangers is gone. if you have a tinny brain, you will realize that the anonymous shit you advertise is pure sci-fi.
This is only partly true. On one hand, bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general are attaining mainstream acceptance, so regulation is becoming the norm and dark markets and money laundering havens may be shut down. On the other hand, privacy-enhancing technology is improving everyday. Currencies like Monero seem to largely aid anonymity (time will tell as experts continue to try break the technology).
Tumblebit could be be a game-changer for Bitcoin fungibility. Between heightened fungibility and decentralized crypto exchanges, the future for the unregulated exchange of cryptocurrencies does not look completely dark.
First of all i still don't see the point of creating all of these anonimity tools to be used together with Bitcoin when Tor already exist that can do it, and I2P as well if i'm not wrong ( see
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-client-with-i2p-patch-151181, and
https://github.com/VirtualDestructor/bitcoin-qt-i2p ).
That Tumblebit was not necessary at this point, right?
Monero , Dash and other crypto that implement built-in anonimity make more sense because at least they avoid the need to use external tools on top of the wallet client, and this makes those crypto usable by non-technical people that want to be abonymous. This is a great advantage over Tumblebit or Tor etc. which are more complicated for sure.
About all of these exchange incidents... i think that people must quit with this trading mania and start realizing that the true power of crypto is that you can get an anonymous job paid anonymously so that you avoid taxes and you earn more.
Everyone would get a wage
at least 25-30% higher by having an anonymous job payed in BTC and the power of the Elites will end finally.
And employers as well can benefit because otherwise they are subject to overwhelming taxes if they live in a Western country.
I don't understand why once upon a time all of these trading and betting maniacs did not exist despite the average citizen was wealthier than now.
Now you are all poor and you like risking your bucks like they're nuts by playing these risky games because you hope to get rich and escape from the poverty that your Gov caused you through taxes.
So everybody let's start working anonymously and poverty will not be your problem anymore.
Quit trading... trust me
