"Looks to me hubble your part of the problem not the solution. What are birth certificates all about? seriously ?"
How exactly am I part of the problem? Please explain.
Do you know why when you get bank statements or demands your name is in capital letters? Do you understand the difference between you, yourself, as a sovereign being and your corporate entity, created with your birth certificate? I'm interested to know why discussing this makes me part of the 'the problem'.

Its a false currency . It only works if someone switches the computer on.

What, like card readers or cash machines or internet banking? Sure, I take your point, I'm a fan of cash too, but we live in a largely cashless society these days, I don't think you can deny that, and a token is a token whether it be carved wood or a piece of paper or a bit of information on a computer. It doesn't make it bitcoin false, just different.
And talking of false, what do you think of the current system of fractional reserve banking, where a bank can lend you money without actually having anything to back it up, no reserves of cash or gold or anything else? Literally make it up out of thin air. Yet they can charge you interest on that money and they can take your house off you if you don't pay them back. Do you think that's okay? And in this so-called fiat currency system we live in today, as Mr ride the wave points out, the ability of a government to pay back the money it's borrowed from these private banks is predicated on their ability to take money from you, by threat or force if necessary. Do you think that's okay? I'm not a fan of it myself to be honest. Backed by gold, that seems okay to me. But at the end of the day, it's all based on belief and trust in something that isn't actually real, just ideas. 'Value' is something we make up, even though it may be based on a physical substance. And cryptocurrencies are no different in that respect. Art is a store of value, just as gold is in our society, just as cryptocurrencies can be. Humans are very good at inventing things, at creating fictions as Noah Yuval Harari says in his book Sapiens. Well worth read I think.
I've lost count of how many 'crypto currencies' there are at the moment, 200 plus probably with many more come and gone. I'm interested in both sides of the debate on their merits, particularly as I'm uncomfortable with the house of cards financial system we have embraced since departing from the gold standard, though I have no interest myself in gold as jewelry or a commodity. I do accept that the increased standard of living enjoyed by most of us in the western world is intrinsically linked to the three card monte money men, therefore am wary of calling for its demise. What I like about the crypto's is the attempt to break free of political interference, what I don't like (one of the things anyway), is the shady trail so many share back to South Korea. Don't invest more than 1% of your assets in them.
Bitcoin price has halved in the last six months,stands at $36,000. What are the factors?People are certainly afraid the markets are going to collapse.
I'm certainly worried about the Ukraine situation.It all seems to be kicking off.Up here in the Cambrian Mountains we have the USAF practising low level tactics morning,noon and night.F15 Strike Eagles,Osprey and Hercules transports all involved.Hasn't been as bad as this since the Gulf Wars.

At least you can have a prepper den, best I've got is a wendy house at the end of the garden!
God I was telling my son about that the other day!
Came up because I was listening to the Army Museum tapes of my old dad being interviewed about his army career. It got onto his time in the TA, apparently they were assigned to civil defence in case "the balloon went up". He said it seemed pretty pointless learning how to stop riots and looting when he was pretty sure everyone including him was going to be dead.
if they manage to develop true quantum based computing then mankind as we know it will be screwed and encryption breeches will be the least of our concerns
