Re: Censorship continued: first the Parler app then @realDonaldTrump
Because why? Because MUH FREEDUMS? Wait... doesn't the hosting organizations in all of these (absurd) examples have MUH FREEDUMS too? Could you make your point without the demeaning regional sound effects intended to paint libertarians as backward illiterates? This has been going on for quite some ...

Parler is dead if AWS decides to tear up the hosting contract. It's in Bezos' hands.

Re: Censorship continued: first the Parler app then @realDonaldTrump
People can't have it both ways... If you think that censorship by a private company of content on their platform is wrong, and their ability to censor should be limited in some way to honor "truth and beauty of individual expression (or whatever)", then you're essentially talking about a curtailment...

Re: The GOLD scream room
Buy the dip.
However, I don't need the money for a few years, I have way too much cash already, and I'm full up with stocks, bonds, BITCOIN, miners, silver... so gold it is. I guess if I had a hole elsewhere in my allocation I might not be buying gold.

Re: So much for the anonymity of Bitcoin
Historically, BTC and Gold aren't correlated. GBTC and GLD 13% correlation. Remember - things happen in the markets then the news media makes up a story to "explain" what just happened. It's no different here. Gold has been correcting because it needed to. BTC took off because it needed to. The stat...

Re: What's up with Paypal and bitcoin?
What’s a hot wallet? A hot wallet is a repository from which coins can be sent immediately. A vault (like Coinbase's) is near-line storage where hopefully the time delay in getting the coins ready for dispatch will allow the owner to report an on-going theft. Cold storage is having the coin totally...

Re: What's up with Paypal and bitcoin?
Once comfortable, consider holding your own coins as it prevents exchange/custodial risks. Similar to Harry recommending holding physical gold. I'm not at all comfortable about the risks of an IT failure or a loss of keys failure if I hold my own coins in a private wallet. At least Coinbase has a p...

Re: What's up with Paypal and bitcoin?
I'm on Coinbase. They let me put my coins in deep(er) vault storage storage. 1. two approvers to take coins out 2. 48 hour wait period, and you get emailed as the clock counts down 3. Coinbase lets me use the Yubico (or similar) hardware key which goes into a USB slot. No key - no access to the acco...
