That's completely different both in meaning and in context. The situation is that countries in the middle east needs to gain stability, and the only lasting way to do that requires them to do it themselves - anyone foreign imposing stability will only have it last as long as they're still occupying.

Remember Afghanistan, Iraq, even Vietnam?

This is not the time to start ground operations when it's effectively wasted. ps: no, conflict over there is not going to spill over to Australia when they have more hated targets like the US.

Perhaps Australia won't make enemies when there are much worse to them if we minded our own business.

The west's foreign policy in the middle east has totally failed, and will continue to fail. They'll be another terrorist group after ISIS, Syria will be governed by another dictator if we overthrow Assad. It's just a waste of money and by getting in this mess in the first place, that's why they want to attack us.

Can we have a Bitcoin specific target? We're not interested in advertising on /r/dogecoin considering its already filled with sidebar banner ads, and we've experienced abysmal ctrs for altcoin subreddit.

There has been numerous fake sites set up by scammers. You are a redditor who's first post in /r/Bitcoin was this post. The mugshot on the website header is public information.

You have zero problems. I don't.

My first two transactions was cancelled due to high risk. It was only after posted on Bitcointalk when Olaf asked me for my email that I could actually buy.

I missed out on $300. I have no doubt that Coinbase is more likely to cancel transactions if the price goes up at the supposed delivery date.

Coinbase recently suspended my account because they suspect I am "obfuscating the destinations of your Bitcoin transactions". They asked me to prove destinations ("with screenshots or emails") for every 47 outgoing transactions on my account. I refused.

I'm sorry, but "high risk" is entirely a business decision in attempting to filter out fraud transactions. It has nothing to do with AML, KYC, or any laws.

You're using the same logical fallacy as NIST.

The tower freefalled for 3 seconds and THEN fallen at normal, consistent speeds for the rest of the 7 seconds. Try reading what I've said.

I've worked on vertically-scaling systems like this and I think you're correct -- however, no system would be engineered to increment them randomly. What happens instead is that each region probably has it's own digit at the end -- take a look at the recent matches.

I see a lot of 6s, 8s, 9s. I don't see any 2s. US East might have 6, Russia might have 8, South Africa might have 2, or 1, etc etc.

Actually, think about 9/11 again.

Did you know that a third tower, Tower 7, fell at freefall speeds for 3 seconds? http://rethink911.org/

Freefall is only possible with a controlled demolition. There's not other explanation. NIST has evaded the 'freefall' issue by finding the AVERAGE fall speed, ignoring the fact that for the first 3 seconds WTC fell at freefall.

PSA: Coinbase requires you to verify your address before you can withdraw your coins. If you don't have a US address, they ask you to contact support. by ferroh in Bitcoin

This doesn't involve the private ledger system at all. This is someone who has ever deposited bitcoin, and withdrawn Bitcoin. This does not fall under FinCEN money transmission.

This user has not made Coinbase touch fiat. This Bitcoin <-> Bitcoin transaction IS NOT CONSIDERED MONEY TRANSMISSION.

This is a pure Coinbase requirement, or a very risk-aversive legal team. Coinbase is not legally required to collect any information about Bitcoin transfers (that do not relate to fiat) as it is not regulated.

PS: Circle and Kraken does not require verification to simply deposit and withdraw Bitcoin.

Coinbase is the term for the first transaction in a block, crafted by the pool to assign the block reward and TX ees.

Coinbase is a technical term referred to in the Bitcoin code. It is Coinbase Inc that has used the name.
