>BTC is for global settlement by large entities
You mean like... a bank?

Friendly reminder that we'd be at $1T market cap, were it not for Blockstream sabotaging the whole market.

>After the settlement of the first contract in January, CME requested that the four exchanges provide trading data. However, several of the exchanges declined to cooperate, stating that the request was intrusive. The crypto exchanges only handed over their data once CME shortened the time window of its request from one day to a few hours, said the sources.

>According to the WSJ, CME originally sought the information through a third-party, London-based company that calculates the Bitcoin price to use for its futures contracts. The sources added that the crypto exchanges did not want to hand over data to the British firm, which also runs its own trading platform.


>Reportedly, regulators from the CFTC were upset that CME does not have agreements which obligate crypto exchanges to share price data that is related to futures contracts. According to the WSJ’s sources, the quarrel between CME and the crypto exchanges was an impetus for the CFTC to open an investigation into the matter.

>CME spokeswoman Laurie Bischel said that their London-based index provider has a disclosure agreement with all four exchanges:

New orders from their overlords.
"We are all Satoshi" my ass.

>That is all. We have to keep the king high up. Hold some BTC now.

And the banking giant AXA owns Blockstream - the very industry Bitcoin was supposed to disrupt is now controlling it.

Did I speak too soon or did someone throw up the core shill bat signal...

(((they))) don't pay me anything. (((they))) pay core shills. Cash advocates do it because that was the original vision from the start, it's really that simple, we bought a product back then based on that vision, it was hijacked and sabotaged by mainstream banking, blockstream, their shill brigades and a pack of useful idiots who fell for their completely nonsensical bullshit, I get paid because I have significant holdings in the asset and when the record is set straight as to what actually happens and people widely understand the truth that Bitcoin Cash is the actual original product, and Bitcoin Core is just a shitty clone with a poison pill strapped to it, I stand to benefit from that.
The simple fact that they actually managed to pull this deception over on so many people, when the very core of the argument is so ridiculously flimsy, really taught me a lot about just how fucking ignorant and stupid most people are, case in point >>9609251 most people seem to be like this, they really have no idea what the fuck is going on, they just spew pointless nonsense which frankly you'd be hard pressed to believe if you had paid attention at a computer science class in middle school where they teach you what bytes and kilobytes and megabytes are and how big that is and what technology is capable of doing in terms of moving, storing, and processing this data.
In a world where everyone watches terabytes of data per day on netflix, massive squads of completely clueless idiots have been mobilised to warn us all of the dire threat posed by 400 byte transactions flitting about between nodes on a peer to peer network. It's *unbelievably* stupid.

It's compromised already. What is that one data chart that says over 90% of the bitcoins are in the hands of a few? That could explain those exchanges in that post, Roger Ver, Coinbase, and Craig Wright having the biggest wallets. Of course you have Binance and the clean exchanges (if they're not cheating us all) operating as normal cryptocurrency exchanges.

I know a one world government currency would be just like Bitcoin. It's not as anonymous now as it was then and I don't it ever was anonymous when SHA255 was an NSA designed signature. So who really is the watchful eye over it.

And if Ross Ulbricht is a key part in bitcoin, his laptop was confiscated.Who knows if he had loads of files related to bitcoin and crypto, silk road. He could've had private keys to the a huge bitcoin wallet or the silk road wallet.

Pic related makes more sense with that medium article.

This is right out of r/bitcoin about the low quality anti-BCH posts - i'm not even joking:

>My theory: This is a new FUD campaign (just hear me out)... The current FUD campaign (claiming "BCH is the real Bitcoin") is coming to an end. Even if the calls for a class action lawsuit against bitcoin.com's fraudulent nature don't pan out, the community has been vocal enough to put a huge damper on their efforts. But let's remember one very important thing about the ones we know as "The Others(ub)": Call them what you may, but they can take a beating 'til they're black & blue, and yet they have always lived to fight another day (albeit with a re-imagined "face", and a completely different fighting style).
>My hypothesis: This new campaign is an attempt to make the r/bitcoin community look petty, mean, and immature (and in effect, causing newbies to venture over to the Others(ub) to see what they're all about (a.k.a.- bad publicity is better than no publicity).
>This attempt is sneaky, and I've got to hand it to them: Smart! Not only will they have their own legions of shills to upvote these posts to the Front Page of r/bitcoin; there will also be a vast number of "true" r/bitcoin subscribers helping them along just to spite the Others(ub) (and ironically, their/our own face). Think about it: if you were a n00b, ignorant to the reasons behind the BTC vs BCH debacle, and you went over to the BTC side only to see the Front Page filled with these kinds of posts, you'd probably go over to the Others(ub) based solely on the childish & borderline-bullying nature of this shit!

while I don't care for bitcoin cash, if this is true, aren't we fucked?
we're already being played

I'm not a cashie but I fully support bch, something needs to be done against the bank coin bitcoin.

> "Bitcoin is the currency of the Internet. A distributed, worldwide, decentralized digital money. Unlike traditional currencies such as dollars, bitcoins are issued and managed without the need for any central authority whatsoever. There is no government, company, or bank in charge of Bitcoin. As such, it is more resistant to wild inflation and corrupt banks. With Bitcoin, you can be your own bank."

THAT is what Bitcoin is! Exactly that. And that description does NOT describe BTC anymore.
