You are absolutely right, when laws become unjust people will find their own way, and disregard for the law becomes common practice. I think it's perfectly fair to issue a warning, there are certainly dangers and the potential for losing your money by accident or by theft, but declaring it illegal is not the answer. The legal system will take care of the bad actors. The rest is knowledge and tools, that is exactly why we have created DNotesVault, DNotesEDU, DCEBrief, and CryptoMoms.

Right, in a dusty corner of the world where men drive solid gold cars and women are just now ALLOWED to drive (in some areas). One of the richest countries on earth is scared of Bitcoin? What a joke. Is religion the catalyst? Doubtful, many Muslem clerics have now declared Bitcoin is allowed under Sharia Law so that can't be the reason. Don't like the fact that you can't control it perhaps? Protecting the people from themselves? Maybe, world wars have been started over this fallback reasoning. Once again, the rich get richer and the common people suffer. But, crypto will continue to be traded there and everywhere else on the planet because it really cannot be stopped entirely.

Even if there are no exchanges in country, there are plenty around the world and there's the Tor protocol. Legal or not, people will continue to trade with or without, their government's blessing.  See China for a case in point. The final word in the title of the article provides the answer to why this is happening. Small minds are not exclusive to the poor and powerless. But, really, where is the threat? The Billionaire Oil Sheeks, Kings and Princes are acting like they have something to fear. Do they?

Perhaps. But lets be realistic, the entire value of the crypto market does not come close to the countries sales of oil in a few months. The continuing cry of "we are protecting the people" rings less true and is falling on deaf ears in most societies. People know when they are being suppressed, used or downright lied to but precious few will take a stand. Even in the Middle East, if populations fought for their rights it would be noticed. Problem is, most populations are complacent, they have learned to live with things the way they are so why make trouble, why try to change the way things work and risk loosing even more freedom?

And this is the problem, complacency breads control and loss of freedom. Crypto is, and always will be, a means of regaining some of that freedom. Granted, you may have to go underground in many places to exercise that freedom but, it's still better than living an oppressed life without hope. And that is one of the greatest benefits of crypto, hope. Being able to see a future where things are fair and equal and money is just a tool not a God.

Saudi Standing Committee Says Crypto Trading Illegal in Kingdom

Welcome cubonho2k, would you provide us with a little more context about your inquiry. We are a digital currency, an ecosystem, and a profit generating company. Each of those things may have milestones and individual projects with milestones, but there is no finite cost or point where we can say the project is completed.

What is the cost to develop this project?

That is quite a commitment to get the audio book done. It is very much appreciated. I believe that it will add a lot of PR value to DNotes.

The funding is generating a great deal more interest than I anticipated. I trust that we will get sufficiently funded.

This is also a pre-load for our subsequent funding round using Reg. A+ Mini-IPO Tier 2 to raise up to $50 million from accredited and non-accredited investors worldwide. We are reaching out beyond our target. That will prepare us well into the next round.

20 certainly is a fair few! Yes, I nearly got through recording Chapter four today, and hopefully could get at least half a chapter read and recorded per day. I do rather enjoy reading the early chapters, so much talk about being the best in class is highly motivating, and I find myself making adjustments.

That is good news talking to so many contacts on LinkedIN. I'm sure you will continue to aggressively add more contacts, and invite them to look at the wonderful potential of a great team with the right funding -- as is the case with the DNotes project.

Thank you, Tim, I have done over 20 podcasts. They are all unscripted, and for the most part, I had no idea what the questions would be. It's fun but very demanding. I have done enough for now and shifted 100% of my focus onto funding.

Tim, thanks for the amazing audio book you are producing. That, undoubtedly, is another case in point of what best in class is about. I love listening to the audio than reading the book. Great job.

So far I have made over 3,000 contacts and received 100 + responses. The momentum is building. It is looking promising but will take time to filter down to a few.

I am just listening to it now. I really appreciated one of the sentences in the interview title:

"What kept them [businesses] upright was likely luck, not leadership, and momentum, not management."

Relying on luck will never be the optimal solution if you play a game that has a 70% chance of failure many times. There has to be something else that contributes to your success. Luckily Alan has put all of the answers in his book, and discusses them in these podcasts. By my count you must have about ten of these podcasts now Alan!

I'll be spending more time today recording more chapters for the book.

Appreciate it RJF! I've just sent an inquiry to see what the integration requirements are.

Another great interview with Alan, as he delves into the principles of Improve Your Odds: The Four Pillars of Business Success and talks in detail about his vision for DNotes and global mass acceptance and adoption of digital currency. As usual, he is informative, insightful, and inspiring. I'd highly recommend setting aside twenty or thirty minutes to check it out.

Well done, Alan Yong.

Written as only a Canadian could! Nice job Brandon, tell it like it really is!

Economist to Governments and Central Banks: Leave Crypto Alone

Barterdex Still in beta but operational:

Ya its totally understandable. Maybe they will get there act together, just seems unlikely at this point. I was skimming through there business license and every thing appears very legit (I don't have any experience in this area however). I can only imagine how hard it is for you guys to filter through the good and bad, especially when the good want an arm and leg in return. I imagine there will be some sort of class action lawsuit in this case if they really do go dark. So odd the effort that they go through and to have your name all over it, only to do something so illegal. Which is why I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'm wrong and they come back stronger than ever. Oddly I kind of actually liked the trading on the exchange. Anyway hope for the best and I hope this helps a little.

Thanks for sharing that mybum805, it is indeed offline. I'll send them a message. Just goes to show any unproven exchange is high risk. We get messages daily from exchanges, some not yet even launched asking for exchange fees, most with no way to verify their legitimacy. This group seemed to be fairly professional in communication and had at least some verifiable information available, so it was worth taking a chance.
