  1. Between the noobs who think common KYC procedures are identity theft, to the people who are worried about spam on their email..... you guys really have no business being in crypto. I recommend sticking to ETFs and mutual funds recommended by your broker or to your football betting. Crypto is not user nor mistake friendly.
     

     

    Yes crypto is only for non-noobs, gladly giving up their address, photo id, signature plus a clear indication of their wealth to a random third party website.

    Have fun with your scam coins.

     

    Also great attitude to get people to use it, I'd stay miles away with your 'for the elite haxx0r only' stance.

     

  2. Reasonable explanation, with a few small issues:

     

    - The fast blocks in BCH didn't do anything for the processing fees, because of the standard block size in BCH being 8x larger, and any transaction (even with 0 fees) clears at the next block

    - The only 'advantage' was that transactions took less than the usual 10 minutes to be confirmed. 

    - The huge backlog in BTC transactions are a combination of factors:

    -- Because BCH was more profitable to mine for the reasons stated, of course miners switched to BCH chain en masse, leaving BTC with slow blocks, long confirmation times

    -- The discontinuation of segwit2x (which would have given more capacity in every BTC block mined) has led to a 'run to the bank' for people that actually try to use BTC for anything (BCH has a better use case for actually moving coins around)

    A few things about this unfortunate incident are raising alarm bells

    1. She was notified of the death by a hotel staff. Usually this is done by the embassy due to the sensitivity of the situation

    2. Uncommon for an elderly man to be traveling without insurance

    3. All 6 of his children cannot pull any money together and they're asking the public for 10k

    However this was amended later, so now you keep the 4,000,000 THB (up to 15M)

    Soon enough it'll be 1M again though:



    However, the original proposals got amended a few years later. We will forego these changes, but below are the latest data as decided by the Thai goverment in April 2016 :

    Up to 10 August 2016 deposits were protected up to 25 million baht.
    Thereafter, protection will be in place for 15 million baht in deposits between Aug 11, 2016 and Aug 10, 2018; for 10 million between Aug 11, 2018 and Aug 10, 2019; for 5 million between Aug 11, 2019 and Aug 10, 2020; and for 1 million by Aug 11, 2020.
