titleA Brief Tour Through Moscow
bodyHello everybody! I am a citizen of Moscow and only now I realized in what wonderful city I live though I live here since my birth (22 years:). I don't know if you visited Moscow or not, but using Internet and other wonders of technology (sorry for my English if something is not correct) I can share the beauty of this fascinating place.Below I will speak about 5 the most popular places among tourists or which deserve your attention!:) # 5. The Gorky Park If you are not in favor of museums or the same places, it's not a trouble. You can spend your time in the modern and central park of Moscow. There you can do many things, starting from lying on the grass and riding a bike to taking part in many sport competitions or tasting different kind of food on the fair. (http://dogtricks.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/park-gorkogo.jpg) #4. Old Arbat Another place for walking is Old Arbat, which is one of the oldest pedestrian zones in Russia. This street cannot be described by words, you shall see it by your own eyes. One thing, which I can do for sure, is to tell you that this zone is worth visiting and moreover you have a chance to eat in the delicious cafes and restaurants of Moscow!:) (http://kyznetskiyinn.ru/upload/iblock/a8c/a8c0e0cf279adcc6303f4d4503065a96.jpg) #3. Moscow Underground If you don't like to sunk in the sun or the weather turned bad, underground can be a transport and a museum at the same time. During the Soviet Union all stations were built differently and each of the is unique. As I use this kind of transport constantly, I don't wonder sculptures and other masterpieces which are located there but after observing tourists I realized finally that I don't value such things which I see every day while foreign visitors see them with delight. (http://atnews.org/_nw/38/99681146.jpg) #2. Cathedral of Christ the Saviour Finally, historical buildings have arrived in this post))) Cathedral of Christ the Saviour is one of the biggest cathedrals in Russia. It was built in 1860 but was destroyed in 1931 according to the decision of management of the Soviet Union. Thankfully, it was rebuilt in the end of 90's. Inside you can see beautiful and great icons and church painting of the walls. (https://www.2do2go.ru/uploads/3710298a8655778dfdf2f438012dd992.jpg) #1. Red Square I hope it's not a surprise for you that Red Square takes the 1st place. It's the heart of Moscow and the whole Russia also. Great walls have defended the Kremlin for hundreds of years. The road is made of paving stone and the view is unforgettable, you can spend there the whole day but it will be like a second. (https://attraction-map.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/b0587591d729e752665f73e2daeb0798.jpg) Of course, there are more places worth visiting, but these 5 are the most excited in my opinion. I hope it was useful information and welcome to Moscow:) if you have any questions, I will be glad to answer them)

      "body": "Hello everybody! I am a citizen of Moscow and only now I realized in what wonderful city I live though I live here since my birth (22 years:). I don't know if you visited Moscow or not, but using Internet and other wonders of technology (sorry for my English if something is not correct) I can share the beauty of  this fascinating place.Below I will speak about 5 the most popular places among tourists or which deserve your attention!:)\n\n# 5. The Gorky Park\n\nIf you are not in favor of museums or the same places, it's not a trouble. You can spend your time in the modern and central park of Moscow. There you can do many things, starting from lying on the grass and riding a bike to taking part in many sport competitions or tasting different kind of food on the fair.\n\n\n(http://dogtricks.ru/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/park-gorkogo.jpg)\n\n#4. Old Arbat\n\nAnother place for walking is Old Arbat, which is one of the oldest pedestrian zones in Russia. This street cannot be described by words, you shall see it by your own eyes. One thing, which I can do for sure, is to tell you that this zone is worth visiting and moreover you have a chance to eat in the delicious cafes and restaurants of Moscow!:)\n\n(http://kyznetskiyinn.ru/upload/iblock/a8c/a8c0e0cf279adcc6303f4d4503065a96.jpg)\n\n#3. Moscow Underground\n\nIf you don't like to sunk in the sun or the weather turned bad, underground can be a transport and a museum at the same time. During the Soviet Union all stations were built differently and each of the is unique. As I use this kind of transport constantly, I don't wonder sculptures and other masterpieces which are located there but after observing tourists I realized finally that I don't value such things which I see every day while foreign visitors see them with delight. \n\n(http://atnews.org/_nw/38/99681146.jpg)\n\n#2. Cathedral of Christ the Saviour\n\nFinally, historical buildings have arrived in this post))) Cathedral of Christ the Saviour is one of the biggest cathedrals in Russia. It was built in 1860 but was destroyed in 1931 according to the decision of management of the Soviet Union. Thankfully, it was rebuilt in the end of 90's. Inside you can see beautiful and great icons and church painting of the walls. \n\n (https://www.2do2go.ru/uploads/3710298a8655778dfdf2f438012dd992.jpg)\n\n#1. Red Square\n\nI hope it's not a surprise for you that Red Square takes the 1st place. It's the heart of Moscow and the whole Russia also. Great walls have defended the Kremlin for hundreds of years. The road is made of paving stone and the view is unforgettable, you can spend there the whole day but it will be like a second.\n\n(https://attraction-map.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/b0587591d729e752665f73e2daeb0798.jpg)\n\n\nOf course, there are more places worth visiting, but these 5 are the most excited in my opinion. I hope it was useful information and welcome to Moscow:) if you have any questions, I will be glad to answer them)",

titleIs Bitcoin Currency?
bodyThe question of whether or not bitcoin is really money has gained attention in light of recnt events in the bitcoin world. Even the Torah, the traditional Jewish law, has weighed in on what defines currency, according to a recent post in Chabad.org, a website dedicated to empowering Jews worldwide with knowledge of their 3,300-year-old tradition. Does Judaism consider bitcoins to be money? The question was addressed in an article under that very heading by Rabbi Yehuda Shurpin, who responds to questions posed to the website. Monetary Value Is What Counts As long as something has monetary value, it does not make a difference in Jewish law whether it is actual “currency” or not in most instances, Shurpin noted. The question of how to define currency is addressed in the context of a law governing lending money and merchandise. According to Jewish law, a Jew cannot lend money with interest to another Jew, Shurpin noted. The law applies not only to money, but to merchandise. One is allowed to borrow, but in some cases, even borrowing was forbidden because the value of the merchandise can increase by the time it is repaid. Rule On Loaning Merchandise Loans of merchandise have to be based on the value of the merchandise at the time it is borrowed. When returning the merchandise, it must be returned in an amount equivalent to its value when it was borrowed. There are three exceptions to the rule on borrowing and returning merchandise in equivalent amounts. 1) When borrowing a small amount, it can be returned in an equivalent amount since any change in the price will be insignificant. 2) When the borrower has a small amount of what he is borrowing, he can borrow more of that merchandise. 3) If the merchandise carries a fixed market price and is easily available, one can borrow and return an equivalent item. As for currency, one can borrow and return the same amount. What Is Currency? Currency in Jewish law is defined as something having been decreed as legal tender by the sovereign government and accepted as the currency in the given locale. Based on this definition, bitcoin is not currency, Shurpin noted. Instead, it is considered a commodity, like most foreign currency. Hence, if you borrow bitcoins, you have to return them in the same value you borrowed them at. Because usury laws are complex, the sages warn the prohibition against usury is more serious than that of other monetary prohibitions. The law notes that in the merit of being meticulous, Jews will merit entrance to the Promised Land. The question has gained a lot of interest in the bitcoin community recently since a Florida judge dismissed charges against a man accused of violating an anti-money laundering law when he tried to launder bitcoin to an undercover detective. The judge ruled that the cryptocurrency was not “tangible wealth” and not considered money since it wasn’t backed by any bank or a government.

titleSteemit: The Disruptive Blockchain-Based Media Community
bodyDo you blog? Write articles or essays? Poetry? Journalism? Today there are a plethora of outlets on the internet to get your voice heard, many of which will even pay its freelance writers. Steemit takes the concept of getting paid to write a step further by decentralizing and democratizing the process using blockchain technology and its own internal digital currency, called Steem. Since its official beta launch a few weeks ago, Steemit has grown in community size and content, and the value of one Steem has risen to just over $4, giving all Steem an aggregate mark cap of over $350 million - which can be used to donate to Steemit's content providers as reward for a job well done. (See also: The Six Biggest Misconceptions About Bitcoin) Steemit Steemit is an online community that rewards its users for their efforts in generating and adding content. Users create an account with the platform, but there is no central database or server farm. Instead, the content exists over a distributed, decentralized network based on blockchain technology, the same technology that powers digital currencies such as Bitcoin and smart contract platforms like Ethereum. Steemit uses an algorithm to determine the value of each user's contribution, the more often a user contributes to the platform, the more their influence grows. Users can be curators, contributors or both; curators read, comment on and vote for content and contributors create content, either original or externally linked to. Steemit users can write about most any topic, from mainstream to niche subjects. Authors get paid when people like what they've written and upvote their post. To recap, Steemit differs from blogging sites or forums such as Medium or Reddit in that Steemit is decentralized, and that writers can get paid by the community in the form of Steem, the internal digitial currency of the Steemit blockchain. Steem While Steemit is the user community and content platform, Steem is the digital currency that powers and incentivizes the whole thing. Steem comes in three forms. Steem itself is the digital currency that can be exchanged for dollars or Bitcoin on various cryptocurrency exchanges (currently valued around $4 per Steem). The number of Steem available is set to double annually, making its supply growth exponential - a possible drag on its future value in the market - but there is a catch in that every 3 1/3 years, there is a self-generated 10:1 reverse split in the supply, resetting the process. For example, if the total money supply where the following: (See also: Bitcoin Extends Rally) Year 0: 500 Steem Year 1: 1000 Steem Year 2: 2000 Steem Year 3: 4000 Steem Year 3.32: 5000 Steam (reverse split now occurs, and the number of Steem goes back to 500 and the process starts all over again) Steem can also be converted into "Steem Power," which locks up their value for a two-year period. During this time, the Steem Power in your account grows through a process known as staking, a method for validating and confirming data on the Steemit blockchain. There are also Steem Dollars, which is a version of Steem that is pegged in value to 1 USD. This might all sound complicated, so here is an excerpt from a Steem FAQ talking about 1. Steem, 2. Steem Power and 3. Steem Dollars: 1: Convert Steem back to USD and spend it on groceries or whatever 2: Convert it to Steem Power, thereby making a commitment of value to the Steem network for 2 years (because once you convert your Steem to Steem Power, you can’t just get it back right away) 3: Convert it to Steem Dollars, keeping the value committed to the Steem network (rather than selling it on an exchange), but also keeping it liquid so you can take it out if you like. Because you did commit value to Steem though, you get some reward, but not nearly as much as if you converted to Steem Power. [Y] ou can think of it as these mindsets: 1: I’ve had enough of Steem, I just want to get my USD back and not be a part of it any more 2: Wow Steem is cool! I really think this is a great system of rewarding content creators and curators, and I want to commit my cash for the next 2 years with the expectation that it will grow and I will be rewarded by that growth 3: I like Steem, but I’m not sure if I can commit this money yet for 2 years. I’ll hold it here ready and when I make decision between mindset (1) and (2) I can take it out as USD if I want (mindset 1) or I can easily commit it as Steem Power if I choose to (mindset 2). The Bottom Line Steemit is a novel use case for blockchain technology - a decentralized social media platform that rewards its users in its own digital currency, Steem, for publishing content based on upvotes. The value of one Steem is currently just over $4, giving the system a value upwards of $350 million. As blockchain and digital currencies gain wider adoption, more novel use cases such as this are likely to follow suit.

      "body": "Do you blog? Write articles or essays? Poetry? Journalism? Today there are a plethora of outlets on the internet to get your voice heard, many of which will even pay its freelance writers. Steemit takes the concept of getting paid to write a step further by decentralizing and democratizing the process using blockchain technology and its own internal digital currency, called Steem. Since its official beta launch a few weeks ago, Steemit has grown in community size and content, and the value of one Steem has risen to just over $4, giving all Steem an aggregate mark cap of over $350 million - which can be used to donate to Steemit's content providers as reward for a job well done. (See also: The Six Biggest Misconceptions About Bitcoin)\n\nSteemit\nSteemit is an online community that rewards its users for their efforts in generating and adding content. Users create an account with the platform, but there is no central database or server farm. Instead, the content exists over a distributed, decentralized network based on blockchain technology, the same technology that powers digital currencies such as Bitcoin and smart contract platforms like Ethereum.\n\nSteemit uses an algorithm to determine the value of each user's contribution, the more often a user contributes to the platform, the more their influence grows. Users can be curators, contributors or both; curators read, comment on and vote for content and contributors create content, either original or externally linked to. Steemit users can write about most any topic, from mainstream to niche subjects. Authors get paid when people like what they've written and upvote their post.\n\nTo recap, Steemit differs from blogging sites or forums such as Medium or Reddit in that Steemit is decentralized, and that writers can get paid by the community in the form of Steem, the internal digitial currency of the Steemit blockchain.\n\nSteem\nWhile Steemit is the user community and content platform, Steem is the digital currency that powers and incentivizes the whole thing. Steem comes in three forms. Steem itself is the digital currency that can be exchanged for dollars or Bitcoin on various cryptocurrency exchanges (currently valued around $4 per Steem). The number of Steem available is set to double annually, making its supply growth exponential - a possible drag on its future value in the market - but there is a catch in that every 3 1/3 years, there is a self-generated 10:1 reverse split in the supply, resetting the process. For example, if the total money supply where the following: (See also: Bitcoin Extends Rally)\n\nYear 0: 500 Steem\nYear 1: 1000 Steem\nYear 2: 2000 Steem\nYear 3: 4000 Steem\nYear 3.32: 5000 Steam (reverse split now occurs, and the number of Steem goes back to 500 and the process starts all over again)\n\nSteem can also be converted into \"Steem Power,\" which locks up their value for a two-year period. During this time, the Steem Power in your account grows through a process known as staking, a method for validating and confirming data on the Steemit blockchain. There are also Steem Dollars, which is a version of Steem that is pegged in value to 1 USD.\n\nThis might all sound complicated, so here is an excerpt from a Steem FAQ talking about 1. Steem, 2. Steem Power and 3. Steem Dollars:\n\n1: Convert Steem back to USD and spend it on groceries or whatever\n2: Convert it to Steem Power, thereby making a commitment of value to the Steem network for 2 years (because once you convert your Steem to Steem Power, you can’t just get it back right away)\n3: Convert it to Steem Dollars, keeping the value committed to the Steem network (rather than selling it on an exchange), but also keeping it liquid so you can take it out if you like. Because you did commit value to Steem though, you get some reward, but not nearly as much as if you converted to Steem Power.\n[Y] ou can think of it as these mindsets:\n\n1: I’ve had enough of Steem, I just want to get my USD back and not be a part of it any more\n2: Wow Steem is cool! I really think this is a great system of rewarding content creators and curators, and I want to commit my cash for the next 2 years with the expectation that it will grow and I will be rewarded by that growth\n3: I like Steem, but I’m not sure if I can commit this money yet for 2 years. I’ll hold it here ready and when I make decision between mindset (1) and (2) I can take it out as USD if I want (mindset 1) or I can easily commit it as Steem Power if I choose to (mindset 2).\n\nThe Bottom Line\nSteemit is a novel use case for blockchain technology - a decentralized social media platform that rewards its users in its own digital currency, Steem, for publishing content based on upvotes. The value of one Steem is currently just over $4, giving the system a value upwards of $350 million. As blockchain and digital currencies gain wider adoption, more novel use cases such as this are likely to follow suit.",

body<html> <p><img src="http://blogs-images.forbes.com/andyrobertson/files/2016/07/fgtv.pokemongo.2q-1200x675.jpg"/><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/z4oUO9CzVFM/maxresdefault.jpg" width="1280" height="720"/></p> <p><img src="http://screenrant.com/wp-content/uploads/Playing-Pokemon-GO-Outside.jpg"/><a href="http://screenrant.com/craziest-pokemon-fan-theories/"><em>Pokémon</em></a> is a game which teaches friendship, hard work, and respect for others. So as <a href="http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-launch-trailer/"><em>Pokémon GO</em></a> mania sweeps the planet, players can be forgiven by thinking that the new mobile game will be nothing but a bit of fun. If anything, the chance to play games outside must be healthy, promoting exercise in the fresh air, right?</p> <p>Be warned, though: while the <a href="http://screenrant.com/pokmon-go-tinder-twitter-more-popular/">hugely popular</a> <em>Pokémon GO</em> is a lot of fun and has its benefits, there are plenty of things that can go wrong while playing. Since the game’s launch last week, stories have been flooding in of unfortunate players who’ve ended up in awkward or even downright dangerous situations as they’ve played – everything from sprained ankles to muggings have become commonplace as so many unprepared players take to the streets in search of their favorite pocket monsters.</p> <p>So be warned: danger could befall you on your quest to be the very best, like no one ever was. Here are <strong>15 Potential Dangers Awaiting You</strong>&nbsp;– read up, and stay safe.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;15. Injuries</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;It didn’t take long after <em>Pokémon GO</em>’s release for the <a href="http://metro.co.uk/2016/07/09/people-are-getting-injured-playing-pokemon-go-already-5996067/">first reports of injuries</a> to come flooding in. Players reported falling over pot holes, twisting ankles, and even walking into lampposts and other obstacles as they spent their time engrossed in their phones without paying full attention to their surroundings.</p> <p>For example, Redditor <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4rq9bs/pokemon_go_put_me_in_the_er_last_night/">Amalthea</a> took to the site to explain how, just thirty minutes after downloading the game, they had managed to slip and fall into a ditch, fracturing one of the bones in their foot. Amalthea is looking at 6-8 weeks of recovery after telling doctors at the ER that they were out walking their dog.</p> <p>The problems of <em>Pokémon GO</em> are compounded thanks to the number of players who are heading out to catch Pokémon at night: so if you’re planning to explore the world around you in search of new creatures to capture, be sure to tread carefully and watch your step.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>14.The Muggins</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;If players don’t fall afoul of potholes, ditches, or other natural dangers in the landscape around them, there’s also the risk of <a href="http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-armed-robberies/">potential muggings</a>. <em>Pokémon GO</em> works by spawning certain Pokémon and items at specific locations, meaning that lots of players will find the same rare creatures in the same spots. It didn’t take long after the release of the game for muggers to realize how this could be exploited.</p> <p>Just a few days after the release of the game, police on O’Fallon, Missouri got a call at 2am about a group of four teens who were parked on a <a href="http://screenrant.com/pokemon-squirtle-facts/">Pokémon</a> hotspot – <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/jul/10/pokemon-go-armed-robbers-dead-body">according to reports</a>, when players of the game stumbled into the parking lot that the teens were hiding in, they’d exit the car and rob gamers at gunpoint.</p> <p>Take this as a warning: as much fun as <em>Pokémon GO</em> might be, it’s not necessarily safe to walk around in secluded areas with your smartphone out in front of you – pay attention to your surroundings and go in groups to minimize risks.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>13.Dead bodies</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;Exploring the woods and fields in the countryside looking for Pokémon might seem like a good way to avoid the dangers of inner-city robberies, but there are dangers hiding everywhere, and for one gamer, <em>Pokémon GO</em> led to a<a href="http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-player-dead-body/">pretty traumatic experience</a>.</p> <p>The <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/36757858/pokemon-go-player-finds-dead-body-in-wyoming-river-while-searching-for-a-pokestop">nineteen-year-old player in Wyoming</a> was exploring the countryside near her home, looking for rare creatures. After hopping a fence to get to one particularly exciting capture, she was exploring a natural water source when she came across a dead body.</p> <p>According to the local police, it appears that no foul play was involved and that the man who had been found had accidentally drowned – even so, finding a dead body is a fairly traumatic experience for any player of the game.</p> <p>As <em>Pokémon GO</em> continues to rise in popularity and players explore further and wider in their search for new Pokémon, it’s likely that more similar stories will crop up. Players should be wary of dangerous situations and do their best to keep a safe distance from anything that looks unusual.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>12.Job loss</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;So playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> outside can have potentially dangerous circumstances – that’s fine, though, because the game can still be played indoors without a problem, right? Well, even indoors, it’s important to be careful about how and when you play.</p> <p>In a <a href="http://www.cinemablend.com/games/1532860/how-pokemon-go-destroyed-one-mans-entire-career">post on Reddit</a> which has since been deleted, user <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/scarstruck4">scarstruck4</a> explained that, while working for a bank dealing with sensitive information, the player couldn’t help but whip out their phone to try to capture a Zubat which was flying nearby. While scarstruck4’s company allows the use of phones at desks, using the camera is a serious breach of security measures, and as <em>Pokémon GO</em> uses a phone’s camera to create an augmented reality image, scarstruck4’s phone was promptly confiscated and sent for inspection at the company’s head office. In the meantime, scarstruck4 is looking at serious disciplinary action.</p> <p>This isn’t even the only case of <em>Pokémon GO</em> putting people’s careers in jeopardy – a <a href="http://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/pokemon-go-singapore/">player in Singapore</a> who was caught using colorful language on Facebook to express his annoyance at the game’s implementation in the country, has been fired for indecent conduct on social media. So watch out – there can be serious consequences to playing<em>Pokémon GO</em>, or even talking about it, in the wrong setting!&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>11.Car crashes</strong></p> <p>Driving while using a phone is generally understood to be <em>a bad idea</em>. That’s not enough to stop many people from doing so, of course, especially when it comes to catching <a href="http://screenrant.com/things-you-did-not-know-about-mewtwo">Pokémon</a>. Driving while playing the game is incredibly convenient – as many of the game’s features measure how far a person has traveled, players can cover more ground at a quicker pace, and can also find key points where Pokémon appear by traveling around faster.</p> <p>Unfortunately, though, looking at a smartphone while driving is such a prevalent concern that <a href="http://ktla.com/2016/07/11/pokemon-go-prompts-numerous-warning-from-law-enforcement-agencies/">multiple law enforcement agencies</a> around the world have had to issue warnings to players. These are very warranted, as reports from <a href="https://twitter.com/jonnnycakess/status/751255710856454144">various players</a> on Twitter have pointed to some <a href="https://twitter.com/morganzdroik/status/752001980051193856">very reckless behavior</a> that has <a href="https://twitter.com/wrenthereaper/status/751245787560972288">led to accidents</a> in many cases.</p> <p>It doesn’t help that the game spawns Pokémon in unhelpful positions – even <a href="https://www.penny-arcade.com/news/post/2016/07/11/pokemon-go">Penny Arcade’s Mike Krahulik</a> has reported almost getting run over while trying to catch a wild Poliwhirl in the middle of the road.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>10. Race-related attacks</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;While in many cases, the dangers that befall players of <em>Pokémon GO</em> are caused primarily by their own careless or reckless behavior, unfortunately, there are some problems that will only be faced by players based on their race. Omari Akil has <a href="https://medium.com/mobile-lifestyle/warning-pokemon-go-is-a-death-sentence-if-you-are-a-black-man-acacb4bdae7f#.kfps5v1y5">called the game</a>&nbsp;“a death sentence if you are a black man,” and as awful as the implications of this are, Akil’s comments are certainly a warning that bear repeating for anyone who might be in danger.</p> <p>According to Akil, the behavior that <em>Pokémon GO</em> encourages, such as walking around in unusual patterns in unfamiliar neighborhoods, may lead residents to believe that young black players of the game are doing something suspicious. Akil argues that there is a ‘statistically disproportionate’ chance that the cops might be called, and a similar chance that the player might not be given the benefit of the doubt while reaching into their pocket for their phone or other identification.</p> <p>At the moment, race relations across America are exceptionally tense. While this is a difficult subject to address, it’s vitally important to repeat Akil’s warning: black players of the game should take extra care when exploring the world in search of new Pokémon.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>9.Marital Arguments</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;Playing Pokémon with family members can be an enjoyable experience – it’s an opportunity for families to take time out to go for walks in parks as they explore the world together in search of new monsters to capture. That said, there is definitely a time and a place where playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> is appropriate, and whipping out a phone to play at the wrong time can lead to disastrous consequences for marital harmony.</p> <p>Take, for example, <a href="https://www.buzzfeed.com/juliareinstein/this-guy-who-caught-a-pidgey-while-his-wife-gave-birth-is-th?utm_term=.dkerJwmJg#.yxW1yKvyA">the case of the man</a> who found a Pidgey on his wife’s hospital bed while the couple was waiting for a C-section. According to the player, this elicited a few eye-rolls as his wife realized his priorities in that moment, but otherwise he got off lightly.</p> <p>If the comments on the player’s <a href="http://imgur.com/bKhZiDo">initial Imgur photo</a> are to be believed, however, not every Pokémaniac would receive a similar reaction: many commenters have suggested that the man’s behavior was insensitive, or potentially harmful to a relationship.</p> <p>This being the case, be warned: while many partners might understand or even encourage playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> in unusual circumstances, there’s definitely the potential for marital strife if a Pokémon trainer starts playing at the wrong moment.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>8.Dead battery</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;By all accounts, <em>Pokémon GO</em> <a href="http://kotaku.com/pokemon-go-players-are-saying-the-game-kills-battery-li-1783187259">drains phone battery life fast</a>. This is hardly all that surprising – the game makes constant use of the player’s GPS tracking, is regularly connected to the internet, and often uses the phone’s camera to produce augmented reality images of the Pokémon that the player is trying to capture.</p> <p>Players should take care when exploring the Pokémon world alone – it’s easy to wander into unfamiliar paths while playing, and when a phone battery dies, it’s easy for a player to become stranded in the middle of nowhere without any way to contact assistance.</p> <p>Players who find their phone batteries dying a lot quicker than they’d like should look into the <a href="http://lifehacker.com/how-to-save-your-phone-s-battery-while-playing-pokemon-1783445442">various tips and tricks</a>that exist to help save battery life, and those who intend to do a lot of playing might want to invest in the game’s (<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Pokemon-Plus-Not-Machine-Specific/dp/B01H482N6E/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1466689058&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=pokemon+go&amp;linkCode=sl1&amp;tag=thdado01-20&amp;linkId=ccf1956a7e16e2c53108523faffa3460">currently unavailable</a>) accessory that tracks the player moments and creates alerts without the need to constantly be checking a phone.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>7.Wasting police time</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> assigns real world locations of importance as gyms that players can travel to in order to battle each other and pick up important rare items. Unfortunately for the locations that have been chosen, the extra attention caused by players coming to stock up on Pokéballs isn’t always welcome.</p> <p>Such is the case with a <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/pokemon-go-police-ask-players-to-stop-trying-to-catch-sandshrew-in-darwin-police-station-a7127616.html">police station in Darwin, Australia</a> – having discovered why so many young people are visiting the station while playing a game on their phone, the police have issued a statement reminding players that they don’t actually have to enter the building in order to register as being in the gym. Apparently, a few too many visitors has meant that the station has been overrun, and the police, while polite about it, aren’t eager to have more players taking up space in the lobby.</p> <p>Players should take care to make sure that their adventures don’t involve wasting time for local police, no matter how tempting the treasures that await at various stations might be.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>6.Phone viruses</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> is not yet available around the entire world – at least not officially. After a very rocky initial release in Australia, New Zealand, and America, Nintendo have opted to put a full worldwide release on hold, meaning that players in various parts of the world are still not able to download the game through legitimate channels.</p> <p>Some intrepid players, however, have discovered that while the game isn’t available in the Android Play store in their region, it can be installed manually by downloading the game’s APK from various hosts online. This has let a lot of players across Europe and in other parts of the world gain access to the game earlier than Nintendo would have liked.</p> <p>The problem with this, though, is that not all APKs that are in circulation are legitimate – plenty of <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/tech/cybercriminals-use-pokmon-go-infect-8396078">Trojan Horse viruses exist</a>, hidden among certain versions of the game, waiting for players to install them and give hackers permission to access all of their important files. Add to this <a href="http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-privacy-problem-addressed/">reports of privacy issues</a> for even legitimate downloads, and there’s a potential for serious security risks with the new game.</p> <p>So for any player who’s considering downloading the game ahead of its official release, be warned: some available versions of the game are less than legitimate.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>5.Unwanted attention</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> encourages a lot of socially acceptable behavior – plenty of players are making new friends as they battle other gamers and share tips on the best local spots to find creatures. Gamers are getting to know other Pokémon fans in their area, and in many cases, <em>Pokémon GO</em> is helping to bring communities closer together.</p> <p>Unfortunately, though, not all attention from fellow players in wanted or welcomed. There have been <a href="http://www.themarysue.com/let-me-play-pokemon-in-peace/">reports of players of the game</a> who have felt uncomfortable with the way some other players have approached them, invading their personal space in what is often likely merely an eagerness for the game, but which has left players feeling vulnerable and awkward.</p> <p>Not all players of the game are interested in making new friends, and as much fun as playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> together might be, it’s important for players to respect when someone else would rather play by themselves.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>4.Sore legs</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> is a great incentive for many players to live a more active lifestyle – as a game that requires as much as 10km of walking before players can hatch certain eggs and find key Pokémon, the game is helping to get a lot of players up off the couch as they discover the digital rewards of exercise.</p> <p>That said, players who aren’t used to a large amount of exercise should be careful not to overdo things. Plenty of previously sedentary Pokémon players have reported sore legs and other conditions caused by moving around far more than they usually would, either by bike or on foot.</p> <p>While these conditions are hardly life-threatening, and while the exercise is definitely going to have long-term benefits after a while, players who aren’t used to high levels of physical exertion should be careful not to overdo things and leave themselves exhausted, miles away from home.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>3.Data charges</strong></p> <p><em>Pokémon GO</em> uses a lot of mobile data. It has to, really – after all, the game spends a lot of time using map data to generate various location information and to help keep track of where the player is in relation to rare Pokémon in the area.</p> <p>Not everyone, however, has an expansive data package for their smartphone – certainly not enough to keep up with a lot of playing. <a href="https://mic.com/articles/148023/does-pok-mon-go-use-data-yes-a-lot-of-data-and-people-are-pissed">Plenty of distraught players</a> have taken to Twitter to vent their frustration at not being able to catch ‘em all because they simply don’t have enough mobile data to do so. Other players are in an even more dangerous situation: potentially accruing large charges for using more data than they have as part of their plan, or getting hit with data roaming charges while attempting to play on vacation.</p> <p>Thankfully, <a href="http://www.pokemongodb.net/2016/04/10-best-ways-to-reduce-data-usage.html">there are tricks</a> to reducing the amount of data that the game uses, such as pre-downloading maps of local areas so that the game isn’t constantly refreshing them while out and about, or simply connecting to Wi-Fi when it’s available.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>2.Trespassing charges</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;Stores, restaurants, and other establishments across the world have been seeing a large influx of visitors, many of whom aren’t actually looking to buy anything. One Dairy Queen is reported to have put up a sign stating that its rare Pokémon ‘<a href="http://www.thedailymeal.com/pokemon-go-players-dairy-queen-sign-paying-customers-only/71016">are for patrons only</a>’, and it’s likely that as Pokémania continues to spread, many establishments will be increasingly frustrated with players loitering in entranceways or scaring away business.</p> <p>Not all places of significance in <em>Pokémon GO</em> are even open to the public – many gamers have been scaling fences and sneaking onto private property in order to get their hands on rare creatures, and it’s only a matter of time before such antics end badly.</p> <p>In all cases, players should try to be conscious of the effects their behavior have on others. One man, who lives in a converted church, has discovered a steady stream of players loitering outside his house to play. While he’s been very relaxed and welcoming to players, there’s no guarantee that every gym owner will be as welcoming.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>1.Religious hate speech</strong></p> <p>As Pokemon GO uses notable public structures as gyms for players to train at, a lot of churches are seeing more foot traffic than usual. Plenty of players have joked online at the strange behavior that the game is encouraging, as gamers visit religious sites <em>en masse</em> as part of their Pokémon pilgrimage.</p> <p>While in most cases these establishments are taking their newfound popularity among <em>Pokémon</em> fans in their stride, some churches have found opportunistic ways of spreading their message through <em>Pokémon</em>. Most notably, the Westboro Baptist Church, infamous for their outspoken condemnation of many aspects of modern life, has found a way to capitalize on its newfound status as a Pokémon gym.</p> <p>After an enterprising player of the game established themselves as the gym leader for the Westboro Baptist Church, using a pink Clefairy named ‘LOVEISLOVE’, the church has responded online by <a href="http://www.themarysue.com/wbc-pokemon-go-trolled/">filling its social media presence</a> with a collection of <em>Pokémon</em>-themed memes denouncing its gym leader in an attempt to spread hatespeech. It’s likely that this is the first of many religious incidents surrounding the game as players spend more time near places of worship for various faiths.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;<strong>Conclusion</strong></p> <p><em>Pokémon GO</em> has a lot of fantastic qualities. It promotes healthy exercise and making friends, and its popularity speaks to the enduring dream of becoming a Pokémon master that’s shared by millions of players across the world.That said, the game is not without its risks.

So as <a href=\"http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-launch-trailer/\"><em>Pokémon GO</em></a> mania sweeps the planet, players can be forgiven by thinking that the new mobile game will be nothing but a bit of fun. If anything, the chance to play games outside must be healthy, promoting exercise in the fresh air, right?</p>\n<p>Be warned, though: while the <a href=\"http://screenrant.com/pokmon-go-tinder-twitter-more-popular/\">hugely popular</a> <em>Pokémon GO</em> is a lot of fun and has its benefits, there are plenty of things that can go wrong while playing. Since the game’s launch last week, stories have been flooding in of unfortunate players who’ve ended up in awkward or even downright dangerous situations as they’ve played – everything from sprained ankles to muggings have become commonplace as so many unprepared players take to the streets in search of their favorite pocket monsters.</p>\n<p>So be warned: danger could befall you on your quest to be the very best, like no one ever was. Here are <strong>15 Potential Dangers Awaiting You</strong>&nbsp;– read up, and stay safe.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;15. Injuries</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;It didn’t take long after <em>Pokémon GO</em>’s release for the <a href=\"http://metro.co.uk/2016/07/09/people-are-getting-injured-playing-pokemon-go-already-5996067/\">first reports of injuries</a> to come flooding in. Players reported falling over pot holes, twisting ankles, and even walking into lampposts and other obstacles as they spent their time engrossed in their phones without paying full attention to their surroundings.</p>\n<p>For example, Redditor <a href=\"https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4rq9bs/pokemon_go_put_me_in_the_er_last_night/\">Amalthea</a> took to the site to explain how, just thirty minutes after downloading the game, they had managed to slip and fall into a ditch, fracturing one of the bones in their foot. Amalthea is looking at 6-8 weeks of recovery after telling doctors at the ER that they were out walking their dog.</p>\n<p>The problems of <em>Pokémon GO</em> are compounded thanks to the number of players who are heading out to catch Pokémon at night: so if you’re planning to explore the world around you in search of new creatures to capture, be sure to tread carefully and watch your step.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>14.The Muggins</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;If players don’t fall afoul of potholes, ditches, or other natural dangers in the landscape around them, there’s also the risk of <a href=\"http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-armed-robberies/\">potential muggings</a>. <em>Pokémon GO</em> works by spawning certain Pokémon and items at specific locations, meaning that lots of players will find the same rare creatures in the same spots. It didn’t take long after the release of the game for muggers to realize how this could be exploited.</p>\n<p>Just a few days after the release of the game, police on O’Fallon, Missouri got a call at 2am about a group of four teens who were parked on a <a href=\"http://screenrant.com/pokemon-squirtle-facts/\">Pokémon</a> hotspot – <a href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/jul/10/pokemon-go-armed-robbers-dead-body\">according to reports</a>, when players of the game stumbled into the parking lot that the teens were hiding in, they’d exit the car and rob gamers at gunpoint.</p>\n<p>Take this as a warning: as much fun as <em>Pokémon GO</em> might be, it’s not necessarily safe to walk around in secluded areas with your smartphone out in front of you – pay attention to your surroundings and go in groups to minimize risks.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>13.Dead bodies</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;Exploring the woods and fields in the countryside looking for Pokémon might seem like a good way to avoid the dangers of inner-city robberies, but there are dangers hiding everywhere, and for one gamer, <em>Pokémon GO</em> led to a<a href=\"http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-player-dead-body/\">pretty traumatic experience</a>.</p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/36757858/pokemon-go-player-finds-dead-body-in-wyoming-river-while-searching-for-a-pokestop\">nineteen-year-old player in Wyoming</a> was exploring the countryside near her home, looking for rare creatures. After hopping a fence to get to one particularly exciting capture, she was exploring a natural water source when she came across a dead body.</p>\n<p>According to the local police, it appears that no foul play was involved and that the man who had been found had accidentally drowned – even so, finding a dead body is a fairly traumatic experience for any player of the game.</p>\n<p>As <em>Pokémon GO</em> continues to rise in popularity and players explore further and wider in their search for new Pokémon, it’s likely that more similar stories will crop up. Players should be wary of dangerous situations and do their best to keep a safe distance from anything that looks unusual.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>12.Job loss</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;So playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> outside can have potentially dangerous circumstances – that’s fine, though, because the game can still be played indoors without a problem, right? Well, even indoors, it’s important to be careful about how and when you play.</p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"http://www.cinemablend.com/games/1532860/how-pokemon-go-destroyed-one-mans-entire-career\">post on Reddit</a> which has since been deleted, user <a href=\"https://www.reddit.com/user/scarstruck4\">scarstruck4</a> explained that, while working for a bank dealing with sensitive information, the player couldn’t help but whip out their phone to try to capture a Zubat which was flying nearby. While scarstruck4’s company allows the use of phones at desks, using the camera is a serious breach of security measures, and as <em>Pokémon GO</em> uses a phone’s camera to create an augmented reality image, scarstruck4’s phone was promptly confiscated and sent for inspection at the company’s head office. In the meantime, scarstruck4 is looking at serious disciplinary action.</p>\n<p>This isn’t even the only case of <em>Pokémon GO</em> putting people’s careers in jeopardy – a <a href=\"http://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/pokemon-go-singapore/\">player in Singapore</a> who was caught using colorful language on Facebook to express his annoyance at the game’s implementation in the country, has been fired for indecent conduct on social media. So watch out – there can be serious consequences to playing<em>Pokémon GO</em>, or even talking about it, in the wrong setting!&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>11.Car crashes</strong></p>\n<p>Driving while using a phone is generally understood to be <em>a bad idea</em>. That’s not enough to stop many people from doing so, of course, especially when it comes to catching <a href=\"http://screenrant.com/things-you-did-not-know-about-mewtwo\">Pokémon</a>. Driving while playing the game is incredibly convenient – as many of the game’s features measure how far a person has traveled, players can cover more ground at a quicker pace, and can also find key points where Pokémon appear by traveling around faster.</p>\n<p>Unfortunately, though, looking at a smartphone while driving is such a prevalent concern that <a href=\"http://ktla.com/2016/07/11/pokemon-go-prompts-numerous-warning-from-law-enforcement-agencies/\">multiple law enforcement agencies</a> around the world have had to issue warnings to players. These are very warranted, as reports from <a href=\"https://twitter.com/jonnnycakess/status/751255710856454144\">various players</a> on Twitter have pointed to some <a href=\"https://twitter.com/morganzdroik/status/752001980051193856\">very reckless behavior</a> that has <a href=\"https://twitter.com/wrenthereaper/status/751245787560972288\">led to accidents</a> in many cases.</p>\n<p>It doesn’t help that the game spawns Pokémon in unhelpful positions – even <a href=\"https://www.penny-arcade.com/news/post/2016/07/11/pokemon-go\">Penny Arcade’s Mike Krahulik</a> has reported almost getting run over while trying to catch a wild Poliwhirl in the middle of the road.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>10. Race-related attacks</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;While in many cases, the dangers that befall players of <em>Pokémon GO</em> are caused primarily by their own careless or reckless behavior, unfortunately, there are some problems that will only be faced by players based on their race. Omari Akil has <a href=\"https://medium.com/mobile-lifestyle/warning-pokemon-go-is-a-death-sentence-if-you-are-a-black-man-acacb4bdae7f#.kfps5v1y5\">called the game</a>&nbsp;“a death sentence if you are a black man,” and as awful as the implications of this are, Akil’s comments are certainly a warning that bear repeating for anyone who might be in danger.</p>\n<p>According to Akil, the behavior that <em>Pokémon GO</em> encourages, such as walking around in unusual patterns in unfamiliar neighborhoods, may lead residents to believe that young black players of the game are doing something suspicious. Akil argues that there is a ‘statistically disproportionate’ chance that the cops might be called, and a similar chance that the player might not be given the benefit of the doubt while reaching into their pocket for their phone or other identification.</p>\n<p>At the moment, race relations across America are exceptionally tense. While this is a difficult subject to address, it’s vitally important to repeat Akil’s warning: black players of the game should take extra care when exploring the world in search of new Pokémon.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>9.Marital Arguments</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;Playing Pokémon with family members can be an enjoyable experience – it’s an opportunity for families to take time out to go for walks in parks as they explore the world together in search of new monsters to capture. That said, there is definitely a time and a place where playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> is appropriate, and whipping out a phone to play at the wrong time can lead to disastrous consequences for marital harmony.</p>\n<p>Take, for example, <a href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/juliareinstein/this-guy-who-caught-a-pidgey-while-his-wife-gave-birth-is-th?utm_term=.dkerJwmJg#.yxW1yKvyA\">the case of the man</a> who found a Pidgey on his wife’s hospital bed while the couple was waiting for a C-section. According to the player, this elicited a few eye-rolls as his wife realized his priorities in that moment, but otherwise he got off lightly.</p>\n<p>If the comments on the player’s <a href=\"http://imgur.com/bKhZiDo\">initial Imgur photo</a> are to be believed, however, not every Pokémaniac would receive a similar reaction: many commenters have suggested that the man’s behavior was insensitive, or potentially harmful to a relationship.</p>\n<p>This being the case, be warned: while many partners might understand or even encourage playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> in unusual circumstances, there’s definitely the potential for marital strife if a Pokémon trainer starts playing at the wrong moment.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>8.Dead battery</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;By all accounts, <em>Pokémon GO</em> <a href=\"http://kotaku.com/pokemon-go-players-are-saying-the-game-kills-battery-li-1783187259\">drains phone battery life fast</a>. This is hardly all that surprising – the game makes constant use of the player’s GPS tracking, is regularly connected to the internet, and often uses the phone’s camera to produce augmented reality images of the Pokémon that the player is trying to capture.</p>\n<p>Players should take care when exploring the Pokémon world alone – it’s easy to wander into unfamiliar paths while playing, and when a phone battery dies, it’s easy for a player to become stranded in the middle of nowhere without any way to contact assistance.</p>\n<p>Players who find their phone batteries dying a lot quicker than they’d like should look into the <a href=\"http://lifehacker.com/how-to-save-your-phone-s-battery-while-playing-pokemon-1783445442\">various tips and tricks</a>that exist to help save battery life, and those who intend to do a lot of playing might want to invest in the game’s (<a href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Pokemon-Plus-Not-Machine-Specific/dp/B01H482N6E/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1466689058&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=pokemon+go&amp;linkCode=sl1&amp;tag=thdado01-20&amp;linkId=ccf1956a7e16e2c53108523faffa3460\">currently unavailable</a>) accessory that tracks the player moments and creates alerts without the need to constantly be checking a phone.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>7.Wasting police time</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> assigns real world locations of importance as gyms that players can travel to in order to battle each other and pick up important rare items. Unfortunately for the locations that have been chosen, the extra attention caused by players coming to stock up on Pokéballs isn’t always welcome.</p>\n<p>Such is the case with a <a href=\"http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/pokemon-go-police-ask-players-to-stop-trying-to-catch-sandshrew-in-darwin-police-station-a7127616.html\">police station in Darwin, Australia</a> – having discovered why so many young people are visiting the station while playing a game on their phone, the police have issued a statement reminding players that they don’t actually have to enter the building in order to register as being in the gym. Apparently, a few too many visitors has meant that the station has been overrun, and the police, while polite about it, aren’t eager to have more players taking up space in the lobby.</p>\n<p>Players should take care to make sure that their adventures don’t involve wasting time for local police, no matter how tempting the treasures that await at various stations might be.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>6.Phone viruses</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> is not yet available around the entire world – at least not officially. After a very rocky initial release in Australia, New Zealand, and America, Nintendo have opted to put a full worldwide release on hold, meaning that players in various parts of the world are still not able to download the game through legitimate channels.</p>\n<p>Some intrepid players, however, have discovered that while the game isn’t available in the Android Play store in their region, it can be installed manually by downloading the game’s APK from various hosts online. This has let a lot of players across Europe and in other parts of the world gain access to the game earlier than Nintendo would have liked.</p>\n<p>The problem with this, though, is that not all APKs that are in circulation are legitimate – plenty of <a href=\"http://www.mirror.co.uk/tech/cybercriminals-use-pokmon-go-infect-8396078\">Trojan Horse viruses exist</a>, hidden among certain versions of the game, waiting for players to install them and give hackers permission to access all of their important files. Add to this <a href=\"http://screenrant.com/pokemon-go-privacy-problem-addressed/\">reports of privacy issues</a> for even legitimate downloads, and there’s a potential for serious security risks with the new game.</p>\n<p>So for any player who’s considering downloading the game ahead of its official release, be warned: some available versions of the game are less than legitimate.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>5.Unwanted attention</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> encourages a lot of socially acceptable behavior – plenty of players are making new friends as they battle other gamers and share tips on the best local spots to find creatures. Gamers are getting to know other Pokémon fans in their area, and in many cases, <em>Pokémon GO</em> is helping to bring communities closer together.</p>\n<p>Unfortunately, though, not all attention from fellow players in wanted or welcomed. There have been <a href=\"http://www.themarysue.com/let-me-play-pokemon-in-peace/\">reports of players of the game</a> who have felt uncomfortable with the way some other players have approached them, invading their personal space in what is often likely merely an eagerness for the game, but which has left players feeling vulnerable and awkward.</p>\n<p>Not all players of the game are interested in making new friends, and as much fun as playing <em>Pokémon GO</em> together might be, it’s important for players to respect when someone else would rather play by themselves.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>4.Sore legs</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;<em>Pokémon GO</em> is a great incentive for many players to live a more active lifestyle – as a game that requires as much as 10km of walking before players can hatch certain eggs and find key Pokémon, the game is helping to get a lot of players up off the couch as they discover the digital rewards of exercise.</p>\n<p>That said, players who aren’t used to a large amount of exercise should be careful not to overdo things. Plenty of previously sedentary Pokémon players have reported sore legs and other conditions caused by moving around far more than they usually would, either by bike or on foot.</p>\n<p>While these conditions are hardly life-threatening, and while the exercise is definitely going to have long-term benefits after a while, players who aren’t used to high levels of physical exertion should be careful not to overdo things and leave themselves exhausted, miles away from home.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>3.Data charges</strong></p>\n<p><em>Pokémon GO</em> uses a lot of mobile data. It has to, really – after all, the game spends a lot of time using map data to generate various location information and to help keep track of where the player is in relation to rare Pokémon in the area.</p>\n<p>Not everyone, however, has an expansive data package for their smartphone – certainly not enough to keep up with a lot of playing. <a href=\"https://mic.com/articles/148023/does-pok-mon-go-use-data-yes-a-lot-of-data-and-people-are-pissed\">Plenty of distraught players</a> have taken to Twitter to vent their frustration at not being able to catch ‘em all because they simply don’t have enough mobile data to do so. Other players are in an even more dangerous situation: potentially accruing large charges for using more data than they have as part of their plan, or getting hit with data roaming charges while attempting to play on vacation.</p>\n<p>Thankfully, <a href=\"http://www.pokemongodb.net/2016/04/10-best-ways-to-reduce-data-usage.html\">there are tricks</a> to reducing the amount of data that the game uses, such as pre-downloading maps of local areas so that the game isn’t constantly refreshing them while out and about, or simply connecting to Wi-Fi when it’s available.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>2.Trespassing charges</strong></p>\n<p>&nbsp;Stores, restaurants, and other establishments across the world have been seeing a large influx of visitors, many of whom aren’t actually looking to buy anything. One Dairy Queen is reported to have put up a sign stating that its rare Pokémon ‘<a href=\"http://www.thedailymeal.com/pokemon-go-players-dairy-queen-sign-paying-customers-only/71016\">are for patrons only</a>’, and it’s likely that as Pokémania continues to spread, many establishments will be increasingly frustrated with players loitering in entranceways or scaring away business.</p>\n<p>Not all places of significance in <em>Pokémon GO</em> are even open to the public – many gamers have been scaling fences and sneaking onto private property in order to get their hands on rare creatures, and it’s only a matter of time before such antics end badly.</p>\n<p>In all cases, players should try to be conscious of the effects their behavior have on others. One man, who lives in a converted church, has discovered a steady stream of players loitering outside his house to play. While he’s been very relaxed and welcoming to players, there’s no guarantee that every gym owner will be as welcoming.&nbsp;</p>\n<p><strong>1.Religious hate speech</strong></p>\n<p>As Pokemon GO uses notable public structures as gyms for players to train at, a lot of churches are seeing more foot traffic than usual. Plenty of players have joked online at the strange behavior that the game is encouraging, as gamers visit religious sites <em>en masse</em> as part of their Pokémon pilgrimage.</p>\n<p>While in most cases these establishments are taking their newfound popularity among <em>Pokémon</em> fans in their stride, some churches have found opportunistic ways of spreading their message through <em>Pokémon</em>. Most notably, the Westboro Baptist Church, infamous for their outspoken condemnation of many aspects of modern life, has found a way to capitalize on its newfound status as a Pokémon gym.</p>\n<p>After an enterprising player of the game established themselves as the gym leader for the Westboro Baptist Church, using a pink Clefairy named ‘LOVEISLOVE’, the church has responded online by <a href=\"http://www.themarysue.com/wbc-pokemon-go-trolled/\">filling its social media presence</a> with a collection of <em>Pokémon</em>-themed memes denouncing its gym leader in an attempt to spread hatespeech. It’s likely that this is the first of many religious incidents surrounding the game as players spend more time near places of worship for various faiths.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>&nbsp;<strong>Conclusion</strong></p>\n<p><em>Pokémon GO</em> has a lot of fantastic qualities. It promotes healthy exercise and making friends, and its popularity speaks to the enduring dream of becoming a Pokémon master that’s shared by millions of players across the world.That said, the game is not without its risks. While sore legs and data charges might not be all that scary, there’s a very real threat that the game could lead to disaster and tragedy unless players are careful where and how they play.So the next time a rare Pokémon appears in the middle of the road, be sure to ask yourself whether it’s worth risking a car crash to get hold of it.Are you playing <em>Pokémon GO</em>?

titleSteemit introduces new security system
body<html> <p><img src="http://www.coinfox.info/images/news/business_small.jpg" width="422" height="291"/></p> <p>&nbsp;After hundreds of accounts of the blockchain social network Steemit fell prey to cyberattackers, the company decided to strike back, introducing what it claims a “revolutionary” solution.</p> <p>According to Steemit co-founder <a href="https://steemit.com/blockchain/@dan/steemit-releases-groundbreaking-account-recovery-solution">Dan Larimer</a>, if a user account is hacked, it can be recovered with any of the keys you have used over the last 30 days. To do this, you need a person who will be able to confirm your identity to the blockchain. As noted in the comments to the article, this concept “goes hand in hand with Steemit being a social network platform.”</p> <p>Dan Larimer stressed that protection from hackers is becoming increasingly expensive and difficult to use, while cybercriminals are finding ways to circumvent any obstacles. “Even a Nuclear power plant in Iran that was completely disconnected from the internet was hacked,” reminds the developer. “At some point the cost of preventing a break in is higher than the cost of recovering from a break in,” he writes.</p> <p>He believes that guaranteed return of the account to its owner is the most reasonable measure when you cannot guarantee 100% protection. He considers this solution to be the best compromise between security and convenience.</p> <p>When a social network account hacked, two or more people get access to it. Blockchain does not make the difference between people using the key to your account. The new security system developed by Steem allows the user to restore their account via a trusted person — a spouse, a parent, a friend, or any third party, including Steemit itself, which can identify you by e-mail, login on Reddit or your Facebook page.</p> <p>The trustee makes a request to replace the old keys with new ones. After that, you have 24 hours to enter the account using either your new or your old passwords (you can enter any key that you used in the last 30 days). If you have time to do this, you will get rid of the intruder. But if within 30 days you have not used the social network, you will lose your account forever.</p> <p>The user’s partner is entitled to make a request for password recovery, but does not own the key and consequently, cannot access your Steemit without your permission. If, however, your partner’s Steemit account is hacked, they will have to apply to their trustee for help. Every 30 days a user can confirm their trustees or change them.</p> <p>Throughout the day on 14 July, the website of Steemit was down at first and then put in “read-only” mode. According to the official announcement, unknown cyber criminals had hacked about 260 accounts and stolen nearly <a href="http://www.coinfox.info/news/5925-steem-is-hacked-85-000-reportedly-stolen">$ 85,000</a>.&nbsp;</p> <p>Steemit CEO Ned Scott promised that “any users whose accounts were compromised will be completely reimbursed.”Steemit is a social network based on the blockchain, which rewards its users with cryptocurrency for original content. Its main difference from traditional social networks is that user accounts contain very little personal information, so it is money and personal keys that attract hackers. Due to the blockchain technology, even blocked from access, the user can see any transaction performed with their account, so when their wallet is milked, they will immediately be aware.&nbsp;</p> </html>

While the technology is still in its infancy, distributed ledgers offer the potential for profound improvements in the operation of the complex pipelines that make international payments possible. And, in the long-run, distributed ledgers may impact all forms of payments including domestic cards and automated clearing houses (bank-to-bank).</p> <p>In interviews with more than 50 senior bankers, venture capitalists, technologists, international payment association executives and start-up CEOs, Bain &amp; Company found most banks are not prepared to retain control of international payments – a battle for a market worth $150-200 billion today.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bain.com/publications/articles/distributed-ledgers-in-payments-beyond-bitcoin-hype.aspx">Bain’s research</a> shows that in theory banks are well positioned to confront the changes triggered by the rise of distributed ledgers. In practice, however, the situation is more complicated. Regulatory and other hurdles may have forced most digital currency start-ups to partner with, rather than compete directly against, incumbent banks. Yet, most financial institutions remain in ‘experimentation mode,’ wary about the scalability of the technology, privacy issues associated with broadcasting commercially sensitive information about money flows, and the volatility and governance of non-fiat digital currencies. With such a large prize available, faster-moving, more committed banks stand to gain significant share.</p> <blockquote>“Change will not come easily for banks,” said <a href="http://www.bain.com/about/people-and-values/our-team/profiles/glen-williams.aspx">Glen Williams</a>, who leads Bain’s global payments sector and co-authored the report. “They recognize that distributed ledger technology has the potential to improve the speed, transparency and efficiency with which payments are made, but the current market structure gives them a powerful incentive to stay the course. About $300 trillion of transactions flow through these networks each year, creating significant revenues for banks. Further, network dynamics make it hard for alternatives to scale up: participants will not join a network until it has sufficient reach, but reach comes only from widespread participation.”</blockquote> <p>Banks’ initial responses to fast-moving developments in digital currency – appointing mid-level technology executives to industry consortia, participating in the conference circuit and running limited distributed ledger simulations – have left them flat-footed.</p> <p>Lack of a clear path forward is particularly problematic for international payments and trade finance, where distributed ledgers have the greatest near-term potential for disruption.</p> <p>By cutting the number of middlemen and enabling direct transactions between counterparties in international correspondent banking, distributed ledger solutions speed up transaction times. They also ensure that each participant has a complete view of its customer accounts and balances – the key building blocks of automated payment-tracking and notification tools. Finally, distributed ledgers may also significantly reduce costs, including the capital tied up in the correspondent banking network, and error rates.</p> <p>Trade finance, although a smaller sector than international correspondent banking, exhibits many of the same characteristics. It generates roughly $23 billion of direct banking revenues worldwide, supports many broader transaction banking relationships and suffers from extensive friction points. For example, about 50 percent of banks’ costs for a letter of credit arises from manual document handling and checking, which creates delays, errors and expense. That opens the door to huge potential improvements from distributed ledgers, though commercial offerings capitalizing on that possibility are still in early stages.</p> <blockquote>“Despite hesitancy among many banks, we see evidence that companies are finding ways to overcome technical and adoption hurdles to avoid getting left behind,” said <a href="http://www.bain.com/about/people-and-values/our-team/profiles/david-gunn.aspx">David Gunn</a>, head of Bain’s payments team in Europe, the Middle East and Africa and the report’s co-author. “The wave of investment in digital currency start-ups clearly signals that payments channels are attracting a new degree of interest, and new competitors are changing customer expectations. Innovation is upon us, and doing nothing is not a viable option. Now is the time for banks to move from experimentation to action.”</blockquote> <p>In the longer term, as central banks gain comfort with the technologies, the impact zones will shift towards domestic payment systems – including cards and automated clearing houses (i.e. the ‘rails’ over which domestic banks exchange money today). This will impact all banks profoundly, not just those with significant cross-border business.</p> <p>Banks’ initial responses to fast-moving developments in digital currency – appointing mid-level technology executives to industry consortia, participating in the conference circuit and running limited distributed ledger simulations – have left them flat-footed, claims the consultancy.&nbsp;</p> </html>

titleDigital Currency Weekly Recap 7-17-2016
body<html> <p><img src="http://dcebrief.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/digital_currency-1024x732.jpg"/><strong>Steem Market Capitalization Soars Past $260 Million</strong>When Steemit launched its social media platform monetization system less than two weeks ago, there was the usual buzz and excitement in digital currency circles. The concept of using Steem currency to pay bloggers for using the platform generated increased levels of attention for the company and its digital currency. Apparently, that was not all that the move generated, as recent reports indicate that the cryptocurrency’s market capitalization has enjoyed a massive increase as well – growing from the pre-payout cap of $13 million to more than $260 million this week. How impressive is that growth? Ask Ripple and Litecoin, which have now seen Steem race past them to take its place as one of the most valuable digital currencies in existence. At the present moment, only Bitcoin and Ether are worth more.</p> <p>The Steemit platform has also reportedly enjoyed dramatic growth in its level of activity, with a tripling of new users, posts, transactions, and votes. Steemit’s blockchain has also been busy, as it now facilitates daily transactions that total in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. As the company’s CEO, Ned Scott, recently noted, ““People are recognizing the vast potential of a community-operated social networking platform. The Steemit team has created an online hub where users can monetize their time and their energies and share in the profits like never before.”<br> <strong>Ether Rallies as Hard Fork Looms</strong></p> <p>This week saw cryptocurrency Ether rise in value to more than $12 a coin, as the Ethereum community prepared for an impending hard fork that is designed to undo the recent theft of tens of millions of dollars from the company’s much-hyped DAO. By the end of the week, the currency had fallen to $11.50 – a price that still represented a weekly increase of more than 13%. Meanwhile, reports this week indicated that the hard fork plan had been essentially set, and that testing of the code was virtually complete. The hard fork is underway at this point, and all available information at this time indicates that the process should all be complete by July 20th, 2016.<br> <strong>Coinapult and Punto Pago to Bring 300 Bitcoin Kiosks to Columbia</strong></p> <p>Coinapult, the Panamanian company that includes Erik Voorhees among its founders, recently revealed that it has partnered with kiosk provider Punto Pago in an effort to bring a total of 300 Bitcoin kiosks to the people of Columbia. The new kiosks are automated systems that allow Columbians to purchase Bitcoins using their Columbian pesos, and operate in much the same way as a standard Bitcoin ATM. Prices and other information will be provided in the native currency. The machines will be selectively placed throughout the country, and should provide an opportunity for increasing digital currency awareness.<br> <strong>Belgium Warns Consumers About Alleged MLM OneCoin</strong></p> <p>The Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) in Belgium recently issued a published warning to its citizens about the OneCoin exchange and cryptocurrency. The warning served as a declaration that the FSMA does not recognize, authorize, or promote the digital currency. The declaration was reportedly prompted by internet claims that suggested that FSMA has expressed no opinion on OneCoin and that the currency was neither illegal or problematic. Apparently, the watchdog agency decided that the Facebook posting that made those claims was intended to leave the impression that the coin was operating in accordance with FSMA-enforced statutes and regulations. The agency maintains that none of the laws it enforces are applicable to any of OneCoin’s operations.</p> <p>OneCoin has been the subject of a great deal of attention since its launch, with Coin Telegraph reporting that the company’s owner has lied about her qualifications. In addition, a number of European nations have put the coin on watch lists, issued warnings about it, and even gone so far as to declare it a Ponzi scheme. There have also been reports that the company actually recruits people with promises of sizable payouts if they in turn recruit others. Those activities, and questions about the people behind the coin, have led some to declare OneCoin to be little more than a multi-level marketing scheme.&nbsp;</p> </html>
