$BTC 4 Hourly Chart

KuCoin is officially a joke exchange lol. I went to test out MXC because alot of DeFI coins are listing right away on there. I was able to create an account an deposit some tokens on there. Within 12 conf credited right away and withdraw was instant quick. Meanwhile i am still waiting for another ERC20 deposit to even show up over on KuCoin well over 30 conf at this point. Congrats MXC for besting an exchange that had a 2 to 3 year first movers advantage over you?

Многие отрицательно воспринимают вторую сторону медали, но я хочу оставить этот ролик в ленте канала

Всегда остаётся 2 пути развития. Даже Сатоши в какой-то момент способен разочароваться в своей технологии. Пока ещё реальное применение BTC на сегодня не так широко, как ожидалось ранним сообществом, возможно это и хотел донести Нассим Талеб. Билл Гейтс тоже восхищался, но поменял свою точку зрения:

«Биткоин может существенно упростить транснациональные перемещения денег, и к тому же весьма значительно снизить комиссию. Биткоин-революцию необходимо приближать» —2015 год

«В настоящее время за криптовалюту покупают фентанил и др. наркотики. Это одна из немногих технологий, которая непосредственно стала причиной смертей. Я считаю, что волна спекуляций вокруг ICO и криптовалют очень рискованная в долгосрочной перспективе» —2018 год

Не воспринимайте эти слова буквально, захотелось поделиться роликом с вами. Этих миллиардеров вполне можно сравнить с Сатоши, хотя кто знает какие цели преследовал создатель Btc...
