11-01 02:48 - 'January 2021 Trip to Rio de Janeiro with Payment only in Bitcoin. Learn some Portuguese, Try the Food, Make Some Friends' (self.Bitcoin) by /u/LeanAndHungry removed from /r/Bitcoin within 156-166min

'''

Hi all. Apologies as this is not strictly about Bitcoin itself. As BTC enthusiasts, we're trying to accelerate the shift from fiat to BTC by offering a high-end service with BTC as the only payment method accepted.

I (American) have a good friend who is Brazilian and lives in Rio De Janeiro. He teaches Portuguese to foreigners and has also been working in tourism for the past ten years.

We're putting together an (almost) all-inclusive experience for first-time visitors to the city. Here is a brief description of the trip:

* Monday, January 18, 2021 through Sunday, January 24, 2021.

* 7 days, 6 nights in a high-end apartment in Copacabana Beach. Each person will have their own private suite.

* Breakfast included each day, cooked in-house. Lunch and dinner at local restaurants, also included.

* Excursions with English-speaking guide to see all the major sites, including Corcovado, Sugar Loaf, and the famous beaches. All entrance fees included.

* Transportation provided with private van and driver.

* Two Portuguese lessons via Skype prior to arrival and daily one-hour Portuguese lessons in person during the stay.

* Additional classes to learn more about Brazilian culture, music, food, etc.

This is a new service and we would like to find three or four adventurous souls to try out the experience and give us feedback on how we can refine the service for future full-price clients. For this first group, we're asking 0.32 BTC from each person, which should allow us to pay for all our out-of-pocket costs. Not included in the package is airfare to and from Rio (we hope to include that in the future) as well as drinks and any incidental purchases.

NOTE: Brazil took the worst of the pandemic but the numbers have been stable or declining for awhile, especially in the Rio area. The city is open for flights and everything is returning to normal. Citizens of most countries, including the USA, Canada, and most of western Europe do not need a visa in advance to visit Brazil.

That's the spiel. If this interests you, please send me a DM for more details. If all sounds good, we can set up a time to talk via Skype.

Kraken Support ♨+𝟭𝟴66-𝟳96-8549♨ Kraken Support Number NBHJ

the starting point for analyzing the path for alternatives going forward continues to be around transparency and fees. With increased equity market volatility likely comes reinvigorated demand for alternatives. However, with Regulation Best Interest (Reg BI) having a major influence on representatives and hybrid advisors, and the increase in market share for the fully independent advisor, the hurdle for what is currently available or accessible is likely to increase going forward. From a performance perspective, the market environment in 2020 has thus far provided a unique set of facts for alternatives. On the one hand, global equities have experienced significant volatility and large drawdowns. Generally speaking, this represents a market environment where alternatives should outperform. On the other hand, the context for these moves has been one that is largely unprecedented in market history. So, the question is how does one go about critically analyzing “good” vs. “bad” performance? One thing is certain – alternatives that did not provide diversification during the “coronacrash” that maintain above average fees will be under severe scrutiny. Both for Blueprint and the financial advisors we serve, the biggest opportunity I see right now is the chance to differentiate oneself from the pack. Oddly enough, the COVID-19 situation has been the catalyst. It has exacerbated the problem for advisors who are challenged by how to modernize their practice.Our society was on-demand even before the world shifted from offices and “let’s do lunch” cafes to home offices and kitchen tables. But since most advisors didn’t run their business in an on-demand way, it became a crutch for the collective group, with few advisors feeling enough heat that it would force them to evolve. But now, if someone can join an online yoga class from their living room, why can’t they receive information from their advisor in a similar way, through contemporary means like videos, blogs, and infographics?The point is, there’s tremendous opportunity right now for advisors who want to stand out. They accomplish this by evolving their practice to support spending more time and energy on client service and business development.For us, as an asset manager, there’s a parallel opportunity. It’s that we can stand out from our peers by accelerating our focus on helping advisors manage their businesses.Everything I just said about the benefits of modernizing to meet the needs of an on-demand society comes with an equal and opposite reality: as everyone and everything has shifted to digital, there’s so much more noise out there, and it’s even more challenging to grab someone’s attentionNFor us, the challenge is capturing the attention of advisors; and for advisors, it’s capturing the attention of their potential clients. But in the end, it’s the same problem. I think the solution is building a culture based on adaptability. To me, this means being willing to experiment with new formats and platforms in order to meet people where they already are and provide information in a way that resonates with the person you’re trying to reach. Let me be clear though: I am not advocating for a spray and pray approach. I’m a firm believer in quality over quantity. The main concern that keeps me up at night is the continued belief that stocks “always come back.” This belief has been encouraged since the 2008 global financial crisis and further reinforced by the v-shaped market recovery this year. The fact is that, without unprecedented Fed and government intervention, the February-March drawdown in U.S. equities (which reached 35% in the S&P 500) could very easily have been much worse.I am not suggesting that future market environments are subject to prolonged periods of flat to negative performance, though we have experienced those in the past. What I am suggesting is that investors need to build into their assumptions a reasonable expectation of both the reward AND the risk in higher risk assets like stocks. The last ten years in market returns and risk are not a guide for the next decade, and unless accounted for ahead of time, investors may realize an inverse experience. Not accounting for this possibility through proper risk management can have grave consequences for investors, particularly those near or in retirement and whose livelihoods largely depend on their investment portfolio.

The proposed regulations follow Notice 2019-09, which was issued on December 31, 2018 and provided initial guidance on the application of IRC Sec. 4960. It defines what is considered an ATEO, what is included in remuneration and who are considered covered employees of an ATEO. It also focused on the allocation of liability for the excise tax among related organizations.One major concern that arose when Notice 2019-09 was issued was regarding employees of for-profit entities that provide services to ATEOs. According to the Notice, the liability for the tax on excess remuneration would have to be allocated among all related entities. Would the for-profit entities be subject to this excise tax because of their relationship with a tax-exempt organization? Would the closely-held business of the founder of a private foundation be subject to the tax because of the relationship? These issues have been addressed by the proposed regulations which provide exceptions for certain employees of for-profit entities who will not be treated as “covered employees” of the ATEO. One exception is for an employee that provides “limited hours” to the ATEO. The proposed regulations state that a shared employee of an ATEO and a related organization will not be considered for the purposes of determining an ATEO’s five highest compensated employees if that employee does not spend more than 10% of her time, or more than 100 hours annually, providing services to the ATEO. Another exception, referred to in the proposed regulations as the “nonexempt funds exception,” is for employees who are not paid by the ATEO itself, any taxable related organization controlled by the ATEO, or any related ATEO. Further, to qualify for this exception, the employee’s services must have been primarily provided to the for-profit entity or other non-ATEO during the applicable year. For purposes of this exception, an employee is treated as having provided services primarily to the related taxable organization or other non-ATEO only if the employee provided services to the related non-ATEO for more than 50% of the employee’s total hours worked for the ATEO and all related organizations during the applicable year.Some other notable clarifications in these proposed regulations are as follows:A foreign organization that, for its taxable year, receives substantially all of its support (other than gross investment income) from the date of its creation from sources outside of the United States is not an ATEO.

The founding Federal Reserve Act of 1913 did not specify any macroeconomic goals – the institution’s original mandate was to provide liquidity in order to avoid financial panics. The 1946 Employment Act shifted the focus to “maximum employment,” and in 1978 a new Act added a parallel goal of “reasonable price stability.” After a decades-long drift towards focusing on that at the expense of everything else, the financial crisis of 2008 jolted the Federal Reserve into again prioritizing financial stability.That role gave it plenty of leeway as the current crisis started to unfold, and let it move into new areas that highlight its false independence. This could become increasingly significant given what Chairman Powell himself has recognized as a weakening faith in large institutions. With the buying of corporate debt, the Fed is no longer just limiting itself to the printing of money – it is now deciding where the money goes. This is political. And with initiatives such as the Main Street Lending program, it is opening itself up to an almost inevitable wave of defaults that the taxpayer will have to fund. And that’s even before you consider the pain that a higher inflation rate will unleash on a public reeling from unemployment and foreclosures. The “average” target of 2% may not sound like much, but anyone who has been grocery shopping recently knows that the reported headline increases are meaningless to daily life in a pandemic. The Fed is effectively telling them that the whopping 10% reported annual CPI increase in July for meat, the over 8% increase in the price of eggs and the over 4% increase for vegetables (to choose just some examples) aren’t important. We’re taught that the Fed is independent from the government, which gives it the power to focus on the economy without political interference. But its increasingly embedded relationship with the Treasury is turning the central bank into more of a political arm. Its head is a political appointee. And its powers come from Congress, which responds to voters, who could conceivably convince Congress to make some adjustments.

Let’s not forget that the U.S. Federal Reserve was created just over 100 years ago – the institution is not that old, in the grand arc of history. And its influence is not written in stone. For now, its role is significant and even essential as the global economy recalibrates debt and affiliations. But things chan Crypto markets were born in a storm of change. In 2009, the year of the first bitcoin transaction, the role of the central bank was going through another profound transformation. The roiling markets were handing out unwelcome lessons in the hubris of assuming trends were constant and systemic institutions were immutable. Just over 10 years later, we’re in a similar situation. What we knew to be true about finance and markets is now riddled with doubt. What we assumed just couldn’t be, now is. And the central banks that we understood to be the gatekeepers to the global economy, are struggling to define their place in a rapidly evolving chaos and rebirth.Those of us working in this industry watch indicators of a new reality pop up almost weekly. Over the past few days, we saw a blockchain-based security token initiate an IPO with SEC approval, a long-standing and well-respected financial institution get involved in the launch of a crypto fund, and a state-owned energy giant partner to reduce flaring from operations through bitcoin mining.These big steps forward take their place in the march towards the profound change that everyone working in crypto has been preparing for. Whatever our role, we are working on what we think comes next in the cogs of progress. Chairman Powell’s remarks this week reminded us that so are central bankers. Progress is not just the realm of new technologies and business models, and change is not just about replacing traditional institutions with new ones. Everything evolves.If 2020 teaches us one thing, it has to be that assumptions don’t last, and that we all need to be flexible. In a world where everything is undergoing a transformation, barriers come down faster. And, as uncomfortable as it may be, change is always an opportunity, especially when it comes from unexpected areas. In our industry, it’s what we’ve been hoping for.The SEC is changing, tooCentral banks aren’t the only venerable institution implementing profound policy changes that will impact crypto markets.Earlier this week the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the plan for the NYSE to allow companies to list newly issued shares directly, rather than via an IPO. Previously, direct listings were allowed for shares already held by insiders. This new ruling will enable companies to raise capital on public markets without the expense of an IPO, while still meeting certain compliance rules. This is potentially a big deal for crypto markets, since a handful of well-known companies in our industry have been rumored to be contemplating a public listing. Going the direct route will make this a lighter lift for blockchain startups, give investors a regulated exposure to the crypto markets, raise the profile of the industry as a whole and give us analysts insight into the inner workings of previously opaque businesses. The SEC also broadened its definition of “accredited investor,” for the first time in 40 years, to include those that had passed the Series 7, 65 and 82 exams, regardless of their personal wealth. As a CFA, I am miffed that CFAs aren’t included (what, are we not smart enough?), but I’m taking the glass-half-full approach of focusing on the fact that change is happening, albeit slowly on some fronts. A much more significant move is the launch of the first SEC-approved security token listing. INX, a Gibraltar-based company building a crypto exchange, is issuing 130 million tokens that allow holders to receive a share in the company’s net cash flow, as well as trading discounts. The offering price is $0.90, which could net the company $117 million, making it the largest IPO in the industry to date. That in itself is pretty cool, but let’s not forget that it’s a security token. It runs on the Ethereum blockchain. And it’s been approved for public trading – even for retail investors – by the SEC.Whether the business fundamentals hold up to scrutiny or not, the issue is a phenomenal innovation, and not just because the token itself will blur traditional understanding of tradable assets. As it stands, it’s similar to equity in that holders can share in the business’ success, but without ownership rights. And it could confer operational privileges such as discounts, and possibly other features down the road, because it’s a programmable asset. What’s more, it can only be held by investors that have passed through the KYC process.It’s also a big step forward for a regulator traditionally wary oofferings, one better known for its punitive decisions and high access barriers than its support for new assets and business models.

These days, the overall economy is just moving towards an all out cutting edge eco-system and subsequently everything starting from money move to theory are going paperless. Also, the cryptographic cash is the latest similarly as the most capable development to the field of electronic portion. The cryptographic cash is basically an exchange medium like the standard money related structures like USD, yet it is essentially planned for exchanging progressed information. Besides, here are a segment of the reasons why computerized Kraken Support has gotten so celebrated in the continuous past. Asset moves: The budgetary specialists every now and again portray computerized cash as the technique that on a particular level can be used to actualize and execute two-party contracts on the things like land and vehicles. In addition, the advanced cash condition is similarly used to encourage some master Kraken Support methods. Kraken Supports: In the normal techniques for proficient connections, legitimate representatives, experts, and mediators can incorporate some unprecedented cost and enough unpredictability to even the immediate Kraken Support. Moreover, there are operational expense, commissions, regulatory work and some other unprecedented conditions that may apply too. Of course, the cryptographic cash Kraken Supports are adjusted issues that essentially happen on some common structure of frameworks organization. This thing achieves better clearness in setting up audit trails, more important obligation and less confusion over creation portions. Kraken Support charges: Transaction costs normally trim down the advantages of an individual, fundamentally if the individual performs stores of cash related Kraken Supports every month. Nonetheless, as the data excavators do figuring that generally makes different sorts of cryptographic types of cash get the compensation from the framework being referred to and hence here the Kraken Support costs never apply. Nevertheless, one may need to pay a particular proportion of outside costs for associating with the organizations of any untouchable organization organizations to keep up the computerized Kraken Support wallet. More mystery methodology for Kraken Support: Under the credit/cash structures, the all out Kraken Support history can transform into a reference report for the credit association or bank included, come what may while making Kraken Support. At the most clear level, this may recall a check for the record acclimates to guarantee the openness of good resources. Regardless, by virtue of cryptographic cash, every Kraken Support made between two social events is considered as a stand-out exchange where the terms can be agreed and organized. Additionally, here the information exchange is performed on a "push" premise where one can definitely send what he/she seizes the opportunity to send to the recipient. This thing thoroughly guarantees the security of the money related history similarly as the threat of character or record theft. Less complex trading system all around: Although advanced monetary forms are commonly seen as the real tenders on the open levels, these are not dependent upon the advance costs, exchange rates, Kraken Support charges or whatever different costs that are constrained by a particular country. Likewise, by using the appropriated procedure for the blockchain advancement, Kraken Supports, and cross-periphery Kraken Supports can be performed without any snares. More conspicuous induction to the credits: The Internet and the serious data move are the media that ease advanced cash exchanges. Thusly, these organizations are open to people with data on the cryptographic cash masterminds, a helpful data affiliation and snappy action to the relevant passages and locales. The advanced Kraken Support organic framework is prepared for making Kraken Support taking care of and asset move open to all the wiling people after the fundamental establishment is accessible set up. Strong security: After favoring the computerized Kraken Support move, this can't be exchanged like the "charge-back" Kraken Supports of different Visa associations. This can be a help against the deception that necessities to choose explicit understandings among vendors and buyers about limits of the appearance technique or a blunder in the Kraken Support. Adaptability: There are around 1200 sorts of altcoins or cryptographic types of cash present in the current world. A bit of these are a bit of transient, anyway an adequate degree is used for express cases, which depict the versatility of this marvel. Blockchains, sidechains, mining - wordings in the incognito universe of cryptographic cash continue aggregating by minutes. Notwithstanding the way that it sounds ludicrous to introduce new fiscal terms in a successfully astounding universe of store, advanced types of cash offer a really vital response for most likely the best burden in the current Kraken Support market - security of Kraken Support in an automated world. Advanced cash is a describing and irksome improvement in the snappy moving universe of parity tech, a proper response to the necessity for a protected vehicle of exchange the hours of virtual Kraken Support. In when game plans are simply digits and numbers, cryptographic cash proposes to do unequivocally that! In the most basic kind of the term, advanced cash is a proof-of-thought for elective virtual money that ensures ensured about, obscure Kraken Supports through shared online work sorting out. The misnomer is considerably more a property rather than veritable money. Rather than standard money, cryptographic cash models work without a central influence, as a decentralized progressed instrument. In a scattered advanced Kraken Support instrument, the money is given, directed and grasped by the total system peer compose - the tireless activity of which is known as mining on a buddy's machine. Successful diggers get coins too in vitality about their time and resources utilized. At the point when used, the Kraken Support information is conveyed to a blockchain in the framework under an open key, shielding each coin from being spent twice from a comparable customer. The blockchain can be thought of as the agent's register. Coins are ensured about behind a mystery word made sure about cutting edge wallet addressing the customer. Effortlessly of coins in the serious money world is pre-picked, freed from control, by any individual, affiliations, government components and cash related foundations. The cryptographic cash structure is known for its speed, as Kraken Support practices over the modernized wallets can rise resources immediately, diverged from the customary budgetary system. It is moreover by and large irreversible by arrangement, further strengthening the chance of mystery and shedding any further chances of following the money back to its special owner. Tragically, the eminent features - speed, security, and anonymity - have moreover made crypto-coins the strategy for Kraken Support for different unlawful Kraken Supports. Much equivalent to the Kraken Support market in actuality, money rates shift in the serious coin condition. Inferable from the restricted proportion of coins, as enthusiasm for money grows, coins swell in regard. Bitcoin is the greatest and best advanced cash as of recently, with a market head of $15.3 Billion, getting 37.6% of the market and at present assessed at $8,997.31. Bitcoin hit the currency market in December, 2017 by being Kraken Supportd at $19,783.21 per coin, before standing up to the startling make a plunge 2018. The fall is generally a result of rising of alternative electronic coins, for instance, Ethereum, NPCcoin, Ripple, EOS, Litecoin and MintChip. On account of hard-coded limits on their deftly, computerized types of cash are considered to keep comparative principles of money related issues as gold - cost is constrained by the confined effortlessly and the progressions of premium. With the steady instabilities in the exchange rates, their reasonability regardless of everything isn't yet clear. Consequently, the enthusiasm for virtual financial structures is more speculation right now than a standard Kraken Support market. In the wake of present day change, this electronic money is a key bit of imaginative aggravation. From the reason for a nice onlooker, this climb may look empowering, subverting and perplexing simultaneously. While some monetary expert remain far fetched, others believe it to be a lightning change of financial industry. Moderately, the serious coins will oust for the most part quarter of open financial principles in the made countries by 2030. This has recently made another favorable position class near to the customary overall economy and another game plan of theory vehicle will start from cryptofinance in the next years. Starting late, Bitcoin may have ventured out to offer spotlight to various cryptographic types of cash. Nevertheless, this doesn't signal any crash of the cryptographic cash itself. While some cash related advisors highlight over governments' activity in separating the secret world to coordinate the central organization part, others request continuing with the current free-stream. The more standard cryptographic types of cash are, the more examination and rule they attract - an ordinary problem that bewilders the serious note and deteriorates the basic objective of its world. Regardless, the nonattendance of go-betweens and oversight is making it incredibly engaging the examiners and making each day business change https://www.fundamentally.com . To be sure, even the International Monetary Fund (IMF) fears that cryptographic types of cash will remove public banks and overall banking soon. After 2030, common business will be controlled by crypto nimbly chain.

And that’s even before you consider the pain that a higher inflation rate will unleash on a public reeling from unemployment and foreclosures. The “average” target of 2% may not sound like much, but anyone who has been grocery shopping recently knows that the reported headline increases are meaningless to daily life in a pandemic. The Fed is effectively telling them that the whopping 10% reported annual CPI increase in July for meat, the over 8% increase in the price of eggs and the over 4% increase for vegetables (to choose just some examples) aren’t important. We’re taught that the Fed is independent from the government, which gives it the power to focus on the economy without political interference. But its increasingly embedded relationship with the Treasury is turning the central bank into more of a political arm. Its head is a political appointee. And its powers come from Congress, which responds to voters, who could conceivably convince Congress to make some adjustments.

Let’s not forget that the U.S. Federal Reserve was created just over 100 years ago – the institution is not that old, in the grand arc of history. And its influence is not written in stone. For now, its role is significant and even essential as the global economy recalibrates debt and affiliations. But things chan Crypto markets were born in a storm of change. In 2009, the year of the first bitcoin transaction, the role of the central bank was going through another profound transformation. The roiling markets were handing out unwelcome lessons in the hubris of assuming trends were constant and systemic institutions were immutable. Just over 10 years later, we’re in a similar situation. What we knew to be true about finance and markets is now riddled with doubt. What we assumed just couldn’t be, now is. And the central banks that we understood to be the gatekeepers to the global economy, are struggling to define their place in a rapidly evolving chaos and rebirth.Those of us working in this industry watch indicators of a new reality pop up almost weekly. Over the past few days, we saw a blockchain-based security token initiate an IPO with SEC approval, a long-standing and well-respected financial institution get involved in the launch of a crypto fund, and a state-owned energy giant partner to reduce flaring from operations through bitcoin mining.These big steps forward take their place in the march towards the profound change that everyone working in crypto has been preparing for. Whatever our role, we are working on what we think comes next in the cogs of progress. Chairman Powell’s remarks this week reminded us that so are central bankers. Progress is not just the realm of new technologies and business models, and change is not just about replacing traditional institutions with new ones. Everything evolves.If 2020 teaches us one thing, it has to be that assumptions don’t last, and that we all need to be flexible. In a world where everything is undergoing a transformation, barriers come down faster. And, as uncomfortable as it may be, change is always an opportunity, especially when it comes from unexpected areas. In our industry, it’s what we’ve been hoping for.The SEC is changing, tooCentral banks aren’t the only venerable institution implementing profound policy changes that will impact crypto markets.Earlier this week the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the plan for the NYSE to allow companies to list newly issued shares directly, rather than via an IPO. Previously, direct listings were allowed for shares already held by insiders. This new ruling will enable companies to raise capital on public markets without the expense of an IPO, while still meeting certain compliance rules. This is potentially a big deal for crypto markets, since a handful of well-known companies in our industry have been rumored to be contemplating a public listing. Going the direct route will make this a lighter lift for blockchain startups, give investors a regulated exposure to the crypto markets, raise the profile of the industry as a whole and give us analysts insight into the inner workings of previously opaque businesses. The SEC also broadened its definition of “accredited investor,” for the first time in 40 years, to include those that had passed the Series 7, 65 and 82 exams, regardless of their personal wealth. As a CFA, I am miffed that CFAs aren’t included (what, are we not smart enough?), but I’m taking the glass-half-full approach of focusing on the fact that change is happening, albeit slowly on some fronts. A much more significant move is the launch of the first SEC-approved security token listing. INX, a Gibraltar-based company building a crypto exchange, is issuing 130 million tokens that allow holders to receive a share in the company’s net cash flow, as well as trading discounts. The offering price is $0.90, which could net the company $117 million, making it the largest IPO in the industry to date. That in itself is pretty cool, but let’s not forget that it’s a security token. It runs on the Ethereum blockchain. And it’s been approved for public trading – even for retail investors – by the SEC.Whether the business fundamentals hold up to scrutiny or not, the issue is a phenomenal innovation, and not just because the token itself will blur traditional understanding of tradable assets. As it stands, it’s similar to equity in that holders can share in the business’ success, but without ownership rights. And it could confer operational privileges such as discounts, and possibly other features down the road, because it’s a programmable asset. What’s more, it can only be held by investors that have passed through the KYC process.It’s also a big step forward for a regulator traditionally wary oofferings, one better known for its punitive decisions and high access barriers than its support for new assets and business models.

These days, the overall economy is just moving towards an all out cutting edge eco-system and subsequently everything starting from money move to theory are going paperless. Also, the cryptographic cash is the latest similarly as the most capable development to the field of electronic portion. The cryptographic cash is basically an exchange medium like the standard money related structures like USD, yet it is essentially planned for exchanging progressed information. Besides, here are a segment of the reasons why computerized Kraken Support has gotten so celebrated in the continuous past. Asset moves: The budgetary specialists every now and again portray computerized cash as the technique that on a particular level can be used to actualize and execute two-party contracts on the things like land and vehicles. In addition, the advanced cash condition is similarly used to encourage some master Kraken Support methods. Kraken Supports: In the normal techniques for proficient connections, legitimate representatives, experts, and mediators can incorporate some unprecedented cost and enough unpredictability to even the immediate Kraken Support. Moreover, there are operational expense, commissions, regulatory work and some other unprecedented conditions that may apply too. Of course, the cryptographic cash Kraken Supports are adjusted issues that essentially happen on some common structure of frameworks organization. This thing achieves better clearness in setting up audit trails, more important obligation and less confusion over creation portions. Kraken Support charges: Transaction costs normally trim down the advantages of an individual, fundamentally if the individual performs stores of cash related Kraken Supports every month. Nonetheless, as the data excavators do figuring that generally makes different sorts of cryptographic types of cash get the compensation from the framework being referred to and hence here the Kraken Support costs never apply. Nevertheless, one may need to pay a particular proportion of outside costs for associating with the organizations of any untouchable organization organizations to keep up the computerized Kraken Support wallet. More mystery methodology for Kraken Support: Under the credit/cash structures, the all out Kraken Support history can transform into a reference report for the credit association or bank included, come what may while making Kraken Support. At the most clear level, this may recall a check for the record acclimates to guarantee the openness of good resources. Regardless, by virtue of cryptographic cash, every Kraken Support made between two social events is considered as a stand-out exchange where the terms can be agreed and organized. Additionally, here the information exchange is performed on a "push" premise where one can definitely send what he/she seizes the opportunity to send to the recipient. This thing thoroughly guarantees the security of the money related history similarly as the threat of character or record theft. Less complex trading system all around: Although advanced monetary forms are commonly seen as the real tenders on the open levels, these are not dependent upon the advance costs, exchange rates, Kraken Support charges or whatever different costs that are constrained by a particular country. Likewise, by using the appropriated procedure for the blockchain advancement, Kraken Supports, and cross-periphery Kraken Supports can be performed without any snares. More conspicuous induction to the credits: The Internet and the serious data move are the media that ease advanced cash exchanges. Thusly, these organizations are open to people with data on the cryptographic cash masterminds, a helpful data affiliation and snappy action to the relevant passages and locales. The advanced Kraken Support organic framework is prepared for making Kraken Support taking care of and asset move open to all the wiling people after the fundamental establishment is accessible set up. Strong security: After favoring the computerized Kraken Support move, this can't be exchanged like the "charge-back" Kraken Supports of different Visa associations. This can be a help against the deception that necessities to choose explicit understandings among vendors and buyers about limits of the appearance technique or a blunder in the Kraken Support. Adaptability: There are around 1200 sorts of altcoins or cryptographic types of cash present in the current world. A bit of these are a bit of transient, anyway an adequate degree is used for express cases, which depict the versatility of this marvel. Blockchains, sidechains, mining - wordings in the incognito universe of cryptographic cash continue aggregating by minutes. Notwithstanding the way that it sounds ludicrous to introduce new fiscal terms in a successfully astounding universe of store, advanced types of cash offer a really vital response for most likely the best burden in the current Kraken Support market - security of Kraken Support in an automated world. Advanced cash is a describing and irksome improvement in the snappy moving universe of parity tech, a proper response to the necessity for a protected vehicle of exchange the hours of virtual Kraken Support. In when game plans are simply digits and numbers, cryptographic cash proposes to do unequivocally that! In the most basic kind of the term, advanced cash is a proof-of-thought for elective virtual money that ensures ensured about, obscure Kraken Supports through shared online work sorting out. The misnomer is considerably more a property rather than veritable money. Rather than standard money, cryptographic cash models work without a central influence, as a decentralized progressed instrument. In a scattered advanced Kraken Support instrument, the money is given, directed and grasped by the total system peer compose - the tireless activity of which is known as mining on a buddy's machine. Successful diggers get coins too in vitality about their time and resources utilized. At the point when used, the Kraken Support information is conveyed to a blockchain in the framework under an open key, shielding each coin from being spent twice from a comparable customer. The blockchain can be thought of as the agent's register. Coins are ensured about behind a mystery word made sure about cutting edge wallet addressing the customer. Effortlessly of coins in the serious money world is pre-picked, freed from control, by any individual, affiliations, government components and cash related foundations. The cryptographic cash structure is known for its speed, as Kraken Support practices over the modernized wallets can rise resources immediately, diverged from the customary budgetary system. It is moreover by and large irreversible by arrangement, further strengthening the chance of mystery and shedding any further chances of following the money back to its special owner. Tragically, the eminent features - speed, security, and anonymity - have moreover made crypto-coins the strategy for Kraken Support for different unlawful Kraken Supports. Much equivalent to the Kraken Support market in actuality, money rates shift in the serious coin condition. Inferable from the restricted proportion of coins, as enthusiasm for money grows, coins swell in regard. Bitcoin is the greatest and best advanced cash as of recently, with a market head of $15.3 Billion, getting 37.6% of the market and at present assessed at $8,997.31. Bitcoin hit the currency market in December, 2017 by being Kraken Supportd at $19,783.21 per coin, before standing up to the startling make a plunge 2018. The fall is generally a result of rising of alternative electronic coins, for instance, Ethereum, NPCcoin, Ripple, EOS, Litecoin and MintChip. On account of hard-coded limits on their deftly, computerized types of cash are considered to keep comparative principles of money related issues as gold - cost is constrained by the confined effortlessly and the progressions of premium. With the steady instabilities in the exchange rates, their reasonability regardless of everything isn't yet clear. Consequently, the enthusiasm for virtual financial structures is more speculation right now than a standard Kraken Support market. In the wake of present day change, this electronic money is a key bit of imaginative aggravation. From the reason for a nice onlooker, this climb may look empowering, subverting and perplexing simultaneously. While some monetary expert remain far fetched, others believe it to be a lightning change of financial industry. Moderately, the serious coins will oust for the most part quarter of open financial principles in the made countries by 2030. This has recently made another favorable position class near to the customary overall economy and another game plan of theory vehicle will start from cryptofinance in the next years. Starting late, Bitcoin may have ventured out to offer spotlight to various cryptographic types of cash. Nevertheless, this doesn't signal any crash of the cryptographic cash itself. While some cash related advisors highlight over governments' activity in separating the secret world to coordinate the central organization part, others request continuing with the current free-stream. The more standard cryptographic types of cash are, the more examination and rule they attract - an ordinary problem that bewilders the serious note and deteriorates the basic objective of its world. Regardless, the nonattendance of go-betweens and oversight is making it incredibly engaging the examiners and making each day business change https://www.fundamentally.com . To be sure, even the International Monetary Fund (IMF) fears that cryptographic types of cash will remove public banks and overall banking soon. After 2030, common business will be controlled by crypto nimbly chain.

Throwaway Account for Important Trezor / Electrum Personal Server Question!

Hello. Throwaway account for obvious reasons --

Electrum Personal Server, Trezor Model T and it's existing accounts...

I have a Trezor Model T with five sub accounts each containing an amount of bitcoin. Separated them to prevent any total loss if hacked, etc.

And now I have set up a Raspibolt on an always-on RPi 4 to run a full unpruned Bitcoin Core node, help the Lightning Network with a running and funded LND install, and also wanting to increase my sovereignty with Electrum using Trezor. Running Tor as well.

I have set up Electrs as in the Raspibolt v2 guide and it all shows good and working. Electrum desktop wallet connects to it fine over clearnet. Have not been able to get it to connect via Tor, but I imagine that clearnet is ok over local LAN for now.

What I wish to know is this:

  1. Do I need to make five NEW wallets in Electrum (again, which is being run exclusively via my personal home install of Electrs Electrum Personal Server, my own copy of Bitcoin Core, etc.) and pay fees for transfers, or can I simply import the existing accounts (using my existing Trezor-generated seed from using wallet.trezor.io) and continue as usual, except now sending and receiving through Electrum Desktop?
  2. Also -- with this in mind, I did generate a new wallet in Electrum and sent some funds to it, but it never displayed any seed words...curious to know how to find them so I can write them down.
  3. Currently I have one group of seed words for my 5 Trezor T wallets, using the password (25th word?) method of separating them. How can I do this in Electrum?
  4. It looks like the trezor hooked to the computer will simultaneously open wallet.trezor.io as well as Electrum hardware wallet accounts. This is normal? It will authenticate whatever simultaneously?

Wish to understand well so I can communicate all this to others.

Thank you!

US macro events unlikely to fully derail Bitcoin price gains

https://www.bitcointe.com/2020/10/30/us-macro-events-unlikely-to-fully-derail-bitcoin-price-gains/

January 2021 Trip to Rio de Janeiro with Payment only in Bitcoin. Learn some Portuguese, Try the Food, Make Some Friends

Hi all. Apologies as this is not strictly about Bitcoin itself. As BTC enthusiasts, we're trying to accelerate the shift from fiat to BTC by offering a high-end service with BTC as the only payment method accepted.

I (American) have a good friend who is Brazilian and lives in Rio De Janeiro. He teaches Portuguese to foreigners and has also been working in tourism for the past ten years.

We're putting together an (almost) all-inclusive experience for first-time visitors to the city. Here is a brief description of the trip:

* Monday, January 18, 2021 through Sunday, January 24, 2021.

* 7 days, 6 nights in a high-end apartment in Copacabana Beach. Each person will have their own private suite.

* Breakfast included each day, cooked in-house. Lunch and dinner at local restaurants, also included.

* Excursions with English-speaking guide to see all the major sites, including Corcovado, Sugar Loaf, and the famous beaches. All entrance fees included.

* Transportation provided with private van and driver.

* Two Portuguese lessons via Skype prior to arrival and daily one-hour Portuguese lessons in person during the stay.

* Additional classes to learn more about Brazilian culture, music, food, etc.

This is a new service and we would like to find three or four adventurous souls to try out the experience and give us feedback on how we can refine the service for future full-price clients. For this first group, we're asking 0.32 BTC from each person, which should allow us to pay for all our out-of-pocket costs. Not included in the package is airfare to and from Rio (we hope to include that in the future) as well as drinks and any incidental purchases.

NOTE: Brazil took the worst of the pandemic but the numbers have been stable or declining for awhile, especially in the Rio area. The city is open for flights and everything is returning to normal. Citizens of most countries, including the USA, Canada, and most of western Europe do not need a visa in advance to visit Brazil.

That's the spiel. If this interests you, please send me a DM for more details. If all sounds good, we can set up a time to talk via Skype.

How long does it take for my balance to unlock?

Your balance is unlocked after 10 confirmations (which means 10 mined blocks). A block is mined approximately every two minutes on the Monero network, so that would be around 20 minutes.

How can I prove that I sent a payment?

The fastest and most direct way is by using the ExploreMonero blockchain explorer. You will need to recover the transaction key from your wallet (complete guide for GUI / CLI).

How do I buy Monero (XMR) with Bitcoin (BTC)?

There are dozens of exchanges that trade Monero against Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Check out the list on CoinMarketCap and choose the option that suits you best.

How do I buy Monero (XMR) with fiat?

  • Kraken (USD and EUR): old-school, decent exchange. They might require your documents for verification and approval of your account.
  • LocalMonero: peer-to-peer exchange. They have pretty much everything as a payment method and they support hundreds of fiat options.

How can I quickly exchange my Monero (XMR) for Bitcoin (BTC)?

There are multiple ways to exchange your Monero for Bitcoin, but first of all, I'd like to remind you that if you really want to do your part for Monero, one of the simplest ways is to get in touch with your merchant/service provider and request for it to accept Monero directly as payment. Ask the service provider to visit the official website and our communication channels if he or she needs help with system integration.

That being said, the community has been recommending two services in particular, XMR.TO and MorphToken. These services are only recommendations and are operated by entities outside the control of the Monero Project. Be diligent.

How do I mine Monero? And other mining questions.

The correct place to ask questions and discuss the Monero mining scene is in the dedicated subreddit r/MoneroMining. That being said, you can find a list of pools and available mining software in the GetMonero.org website.


2. Wallet: CLI & GUI

Why I can't see my balance? Where is my XMR?

Before any action there are two things to check:

  1. Are you using the latest available version of the wallet? A new version is released roughly every 6 months, so make sure you're using the current release (compare the release on GetMonero.org with your wallet's version on Settings, under Debug info).
  2. Is your wallet fully synchronized? If it isn't, wait the sync to complete.

Because Monero is different from Bitcoin, wallet synchronization is not instant. The software needs to synchronize the blockchain and use your private keys to identify your transactions. Check in the lower left corner (GUI) if the wallet is synchronized.

You can't send transactions and your balance might be wrong or unavailable if the wallet is not synced with the network. So please wait.

If this is not a sufficient answer for your case and you're looking for more information, please see this answer on StackExchange.

How do I upgrade my wallet to the newest version?

This question is beautifully answered on StackExchange.

Why does it take so long to sync the wallet [for the first time]?

You have decided to use Monero's wallet and run a local node. Congratulations! You have chosen the safest and most secure option for your privacy, but unfortunately this has an initial cost. The first reason for the slowness is that you will need to download the entire blockchain, which is considerably heavy (+70 GB) and constantly growing. There are technologies being implemented in Monero to slow this growth, however it is inevitable to make this initial download to run a full node. Consider syncing to a device that has an SSD instead of an HDD, as this greatly impacts the speed of synchronization.

Now that the blockchain is on your computer, the next time you run the wallet you only need to download new blocks, which should take seconds or minutes (depending on how often you use the wallet).

I don't want to download the blockchain, how can I skip that?

The way to skip downloading the blockchain is connecting your wallet to a public remote node. You can follow this guide on how to set it up. You can find a list of public remote nodes on MoneroWorld.

Be advised that when using a public remote node you lose some of your privacy. A public remote node is able to identify your IP and opens up a range for certain attacks that further diminish your privacy. A remote node can't see your balance and it can't spend your XMR.

How do I restore my wallet from the mnemonic seed or from the keys?

To restore your wallet with the 25 word mnemonic seed, please see this guide.

To restore your wallet with your keys, please see this guide.


3. Wallet: Ledger

How do I generate a Ledger Monero Wallet with the GUI or CLI?

This question is beautifully answered on StackExchange. Check this page for the GUI instructions, and this page for the CLI instructions.


4. Nodes

How can my local node become a public remote node?

If you want to support other Monero users by making your node public, you can follow the instructions on MoneroWorld, under the section "How To Include Your Node On Moneroworld".

How can I connect my node via Tor?

r/Conspiracy pops some prison commissary-style popcorn as a breakaway faction of QAnon believers argue that "Q" is a 29yr old IT guy in Arizona who's currently being held by the FBI

tl;dr: a small faction of the QAnon movement believes that 29yr old Phoenix-area IT guy Austin Steinbart is the actual "Q" who writes all the "insider" messages for the movement. The majority of r/Conspiracy overall is not really down with Q, but for some weird reason a disproportionate chunk of Q followers on Conspo are of the Steinbart faction. So the popcorn is always good as they endlessly squabble as to whether Q is Austin Steinbart, Austin is a liar but Q is legit, or if the whole thing is just malarkey.

Okay, so at this point I'm assuming everyone knows at least the basics of QAnon. So this anon on 4chan (later moved to 8chan then 8kun), posted claiming to be an undercover operative in the Trump administration, authorized to leak the details of how Trump is fighting a counter-coup against a "Deep State" composed of (mostly) Democrats who are literal Satanic pedophile cannibals. So that's the gist. If you want a detailed writeup from the inside perspective, here's a pretty decent summation from the main Q supporter on Conspo.

The QAnon movement has been a "big tent" phenomenon that manages to group all kinds of diverse theories into the Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory. So the movement has relatively mainstream "Dems are trying to undermine Trump" Breitbart types, lots of "Trump is preparing the world for the Second Coming" Evangelical types, and then all kinds of anti-vaxxers, anti-5G, Ancient Aliens fans, healing crystal, NESARA/GESARA (global economic reset) believers, etc. There's a wide body of QAnon pundits on social media, some of whom are full-time commentators funded by crowdsourcing, all with different gimmicks and focuses, but generally they avoid stepping on each others' toes.

Enter Austin Steinbart: Austin is a 29yr old married (for now) guy who owns his own small IT business in the Phoenix area (not doxxing, he's a public figure). By early 2020 Austin was a relatively minor Q pundit, mostly among the lines of the Tom Clancy-esque faction, talked a lot about how Trump is being impeded by the CIA and FBI because he won't let them pull shady shenanigans, and soon he'll purge them. Then around spring 2020 just as Covid was kicking off, Austin suddenly announces that he himself is Q. Well, sort of, in that he claims "Q" is Austin but in the year 2050, when he's commander of the US Space Force, and is using "quantum computing" to post on 8chan from the future. According to him, all the other Q pundits are "pharisees" and liars, and the whole Q community should come over to follow his leadership. I debated describing this as a Martin Luther parallel, but really he's more like the Mormon founder, Joseph Smith, in that he's claiming every other sect is a lie and he has sole access to The Real Truth.

Those who believe Austin is Q point out that Q has posted a specific bible verse, and mention of a specific band, which Austin has also posted. Q believers are big into "proofs" and the Austin set doesn't have a ton for their guy, frankly. And Austin himself claims that his private high school was a DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency) covert operation, and at age 17 he was recruited by DIA as a covert operative for a mission to Cuba, and so on and so on until all the top espionage leaders and Trump himself chose Austin to lead the Q operation.

Detractors of Austin point out that the dude shows all kinds of signs of mania, grandiose thinking, narcissism, etc. Medical speculation is further fueled by the publicly-acknowledged fact that Austin's parents pressured him to go to a brain scanning clinic to see what's up in his noggin... where Austin used his 1337 IT skillz to hack into their system and record a bunch of brain scans of celebrities (mostly former NFL players), which he videoed on his phone and posted on his website. At this point, Austin began to brag online about all the illegal things he was doing, and citing them as evidence he's a covert federal intel operative, because clearly a normie doing such things would be arrested. And then the FBI arrested him. Turns out the clinic had contacted Austin's webhost and got his site taken down for revealing stolen medical info, and Austin had tried to extort his webhost, sent threatening emails, and encouraged his supporters to flood their email and phones, leading to substantial extra expenses and lost business.

Following his arrest, Austin continued to claim (including to the FBI and the court) that he's a covert agent and immune to prosecution, and somehow managed to finagle house arrest, and despite being banned from the internet he used a flip-phone to routinely conduct interviews with conspiracy streaming shows. He eventually got his internet privileges back, and while still on house arrest he reached out to his small faction asking for volunteers to help him make a movie, to be released in October, about how he's Q and all the insider info he knows. So a bunch of internet randos crashed on the floor of his living room for a number of weeks, during which time a number quickly bailed and announced online that Austin is basically running a cult. And then it all got shut down anyway because Austin got found with a rubber wang full of fake pee that he was going to use to cheat on his house arrest drug test, so he's back in federal custody currently.

So that's a very brief (relative to the overall depth of the story) rundown of Austin and his following. So on to the popcorn as Austin sectarians feud with mainstream Q believers and both get sharply criticized by r/Conspiracy posters who are willing to accept Flat Earth and Holocaust Denial, but draw the line at Q. Here's a brief rundown from Austin's coming out in March, up to this week:
