    This couldn't be more wrong. You can basically buy anything with BTC. You can buy egift cards with bitcoin for just about any merchant. use your imagination.

    BTC is not going anywhere. The government and the banks will never be able to regulate it no matter how much they try. The genie is out of the bottle and you can either ignore it or ride the wave.

      The latest news from China has ‘sweetened’ reports all exchange should close by September 30, giving Huobi and Okcoin an extra month of life.

      Reports from local news outlet Caixin suggest the two exchanges’ lack of ICO offerings was one of the factors allowing them to continue operating longer than others.

      — WhalePanda (@WhalePanda) September 15, 2017

      “Because the two platforms have large numbers of users and have not performed ICO operations, the relevant departments have given Huobi and Okcoin a one-month buffer period to stay open until the end of October before shutting down,” the paper states.

      Specific proposals are still being “studied,” it added.

      The highly volatile Bitcoin market reacted almost instantly to the news, climbing around $400 in minutes from lows of $2972.

      The early updates received mixed reviews, however, with some social media commentators suggesting it is a way for Chinese regulators to prolong market manipulation.

      Official confirmations are still yet to surface regarding obligatory closure for remaining exchanges by September 30.

          Bitcoin isn't banned, mining hasn't been shut down. Look at this as more of a good thing, regulation is setting in to provide standards so sketchy exchanges will be held to account. ICO's were halted, not Bitcoin and not other coins. Think of it like a pause and then a new run coming, already starting to rebound.

                While the price could drastically change, the US can't shut down bitcoin.

                    Or the government just blows up something, pins on a patsy named Mohammed, and fabricates evidence of bitcoin funding it. If and when they want it dead, they can kill it.

                      A lot of the bitcoin trade is being done with KRW, JPY and EUR, it's not just USD. Bitfinex is based out of Hong Kong and the highest USD amount is traded there. The United States does not control crypto-currencies.

                      If "Mohammad" is funded by euros, the US can't shut down euros.

                        It's also fairly easy to to hide the trail of bitcoin transactions.

                              Bitstamp is #2 USD. They are out of Slovenia. If an exchange gets shut down, just use another.

                              Many Coinbase accounts were shut down. It didn't stop anyone from buying bitcoins.

Said he has pals who have been working on JP Morgan's internal crypto program for over a year and will provide proof if needed. They were all laughing at the Dimon speech.

                                                        Son-of-a-batch if true. Probably is. Be crazy to be a big financial and ignore this new type of currency.

                                                          Shrute:

                                                          Try coinsbank or bitpay. I prefer coinsbank, much simpler than the other one.



                                                          Convert crypto to dollars with the BitPay debit card. Connect the card to your crypto wallet to start spending instantly. Get cash back from thousands of merchants when you spend with the BitPay Card.

                                                            Stay the hell away from Payza. Govt's are after them for money laundering for ponzis among other illegal activities and F.Patel that runs Payza is indeed a proven criminal. They are actively recruiting in person ponzi admins to launder money for the ponzi safely. This goes back to when Payza was basically ******** until AP got into all kind of legal trouble and had to move offshore and become Payza and shuffle around directors and ownership.

                                                                I want to make sure I do this right. I am going to exchange betpoints for bitcoin. From what I understand I need to transfer it to my blockchain wallet that I have set up. I go to blockchain and obtain my code from the request link. I copy it and that is the code I need for sbr to transfer it there. I then can transfer it to coinbase or to a book. Is this correct?
