Are we even allowed to have multiple accounts on this site?

Sure. Buying and selling of bitcointalk accounts probably constitutes the bulk of the Bitcoin economy (other than DNM stuff, that is).  Here's a nice trusted senior account Smiley

Bitcoin is already a success. VC money keeps comming in, usage keeps increase, price has been stable and we are seeing a healthy uptrend. Your life is a failure if you aren't yet involved in Bitcoin and don't own at least one. This is a fact that we might as well deal with it. Stop trying to fight destiny man, just hop on the winning train.

Good post, this is what I say even to the trolls, bears & haters - even if you doubt bitcoin, think it'll fail or even just troll on here - keep 1 bitcoin in cold storage, even 1 could make you a very good profit one day.

what is this forum becomming these days.... fud spammers taking al the space you need to crawl trough to read the interresting treds?
shouldn't we burn this kind of treads and posters to ground or something?

trying people make believe something is bad or a failure, by fudding it all over  the place to later on buy it at cheaper price with the intend to sell at higher price in the future... that's scam, wright?


It's called a manipulation. This is pretty common and you can see it in a stock markets, forex markets, etc.

The only thing with Bitcoin is that this is done online, so every idiot that lives in his mom's basement can create a profile and write whatever comes to his mind. Unfortunately it's like this and we can't do much to prevent this!

It was very easy to sign up with Gemini, no ass-rimming like MtGox, GHash or other shady exchanges, just the normal questions and then they ask your questions that only you'd know. There was NO sending copies of your id's. I'm sold on Gemini.

Anyone want to shred some light on why the launch is a failure?

Probably because we haven't seen a huge pump to at least $315, just like we did when the Coinbase was announced!

Very short sighted of them indeed...

This exchange will be flying miles above the others in a matter of months.

The reason will be that it actually is regulated and people will be able to trust them with larger amounts of money.

You're forgetting that one of the main reasons people wanted bit coin is because they don't want regulation. Now that that's out of the window for a possibility,  nobody is really interested anymore so there will not be larger amounts of money.

I expect the exchange to file for bankruptcy within 6 months.

You are thinking to much in a one way direction here. Bitcoin will somewhere be more regulated, somewhere less regulated. This just depends on the country and on the laws in this country. Even within a country you have different levels of regulations, look at NY and the rest of the US.

Nothing alarming here. If a country like US won't let you fart without them knowing, it's a bit hard to expect that they will give all the freedom and liberty to Bitcoin.

Just my 2 cents though!

There is a difference between regulating the usage of the currency and regulating money changers who trade in and exchange the currency. Personally I welcome regulations so legitimate businesses will be able to offer services to the big money types who wouldn't ever feel safe depositing their wealth in some shady East European exchange.

This. We need more legal and safe options for businesses and investors to join the market.

Also, lack of regulation may be wanted by the early adopters, but the majority of people don't care the least about this.

Ask 100 people on the street what they think of centralized currencies.

I bet 100 people will either say "Whut?" or "Don't care". The decentralizers are a minority.

Was really counting on Big Money and Government Regulations to bail us out. Beginning to look like we might've sold out for nothing tho.
Oh well... Sad

You might be listened to if you weren't so fucking predictable and actually capable of flexible thought.

Call me a commie pinko if you like but I don't think lack of regulation has worked out too well for plenty of buyers and sellers of Bitcoin. If the early days hadn't been made up of hostile autistic scumbags it might have worked out differently but it's natural for them to gravitate towards such a thing.

I remember reading many old threads where people talked about regulation being inevitable the more mainstream BTC becomes. So it's not completely unexpected.

because apparently they think that a new exchange that has still not the same volume as okcoin, can only be considered a big fail

they are likely the same people that bitcoin should have been a successful already, or it is doomed to fail
