Headsup. Some incorrect info above: @DashingDude did not have a car accident or a head injury. That gives a very permanent impression. What happened is for Kevin to explain if he wants to and if he comes back to us. He is in a hospital and in a very bad condition and it could take some months or...
Came across this thread a couple of days ago. Been living in Hout Bay (very small town) for over 15 years. Asked some of my staff about John. Bad news: Scamster. Comes up with a “great idea to help the poor” – ropes in a couple of noobs – convince a couple of businesses to contribute – idea...
Coders are not communicators. Full Stop, Kot obviously hates the job and comes over as morose that completely defeats the purpose. Any Billion $ co's investors would have been up in arms by now. You have 2 excellent and POSITIVE communicators with Joel and Mark. Why don't you use them? Don't you...
"Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund has speculated that Bitcoin and cryptocurrency have as much of a future as the Internet itself. It could displace central banks, conventional banking, and challenge the monopoly of national monies."...
Hi Jim
That is quite a statement. She was handicapped before, because you provided her with information making her promise that she won't release it, but after a statement like that she is obviously released from that promise. She must be able to defend herself.
She is in hospital at the...
It's getting late, but I googled your: The wisdom of crowds and found a riposte from the BBC right below it with one excellent paragraph which I found quite funny:

Hi Geo

And it gets even better:
You said:

Hi Mizzy..sorry Geo - see you just joined us here on the Forum a couple of minutes ago - Welcome ;)
The centralization issues were discussed in detail a couple of months ago. Here's one quote from April:

My kid is going to study in the USA and it seems that a Dash debit card will be the best option for using Dash to circumvent sending fiat to her.
Questions:
Any other, better option?
Which of the debit cards are best in terms of fees?
Hope someone has already gone to all the trouble of...
Proposal Evaluation Committee
Been a hectic week. The PEC got a lot of flack for a number of mistakes I made:
1) When I wrote the Guidelines I decided that when we strike a red flag situation we’ll stop all further effort on the Report: Saving us time and saving the community and MNO’s...
