    True but these 6000 cases are directly linked to internet use. We are not talking overall by all means just by the use of the internet, number which seems to be going up every year.


    We all know this is due to parents lack of technology understanding, giving kids tablets, phones, laptops etc without any kind of parental control or security. You actually have to set up a proper user on the machine, implement user control etc... not many people know how to do this.

    For tablets I would say need some form of App installed but unfortunately tablets and phones don't have user control like PCs (as far as I know). The kid can just uninstall the app without any security restrictions.

          BTC is slowly going up, now in the $2200 range and has been there. That's the thing, they always hit a peak and go back down but the down will always be more than whatever you started at. Buying at $1400 a few weeks ago would have been great but again you looking at around £5k probably £10k to start with. They are all going up again slowly.

          My only concern and I have been putting it off is the worry that when you do want to cash out at peak times due to great rates you won't be able to. Even if you sell when it stabilizes you will still make a killing I guess considering.

            I can change my bitcoins at the EUR or USD market rate plus or minis a few cents. Fees dirt cheap too. When I order the trade usually occurs in under 30 seconds.

                Well, I bought a load about 10 days ago (BTC, XMR, XRP, LTC, DOGE, SIA, REDD) - £500 or so just to start.

                Was initially a bit dismayed becasue I lost probably 40% in a few days.

                BUT, Im back in profit now - mainly due to REDD and SIA going great guns. And BTC continues to rise.

                  I bought £100 worth of bitcoin and converted it to Ethereum on Thursday. After the charges for buying it, sending it to my wallet and then converting it, it ended up as about £85 worth of Ether.

                  It's now £92 ish worth of Ether, so hopefully I'll be in profit by the end of the week.

                    I just opened my wallet and there are quite a few Moths in it.

                    If I convert the Moths to Pocket fluff, and then over to Crumpled fuel receipts I should be quids in...
