Slightly off topic: where do you all get your news re: bitcoin, specifically news out of China? Twitter?

Once it's in this thread it's already old news unfortunately.

It's not 1MB to 2MB. It's more like ~4MB to ~8MB.

orly? What percentage of blocks since SegWit activation have been 4MB?

The developer(s?) on the 2x Team don't seem to be able to tell the keyboard from the screen.

You're gonna go with that? You realize jgarzik is the lead btc1 dev, right? He's contributed more to Bitcoin than have most core devs and most blockstream devs. Not to mention his huge contributions to Linux before Bitcoin even existed. Your contributions for comparison?

And the team don't seem to care much about censorship resistance, either.

Bald assertion lacking supporting evidence.

Node operators, besides trusting the 2x Team to do the right thing technically, must be WANTING to take that step. I, for one, am not.

You're free not to take that step. Careful you don't end up standing exposed in the vast minority. Cold out there.

To split your coins
On BTC chain you have some coins in address (A), you send your coins to another address you own (B), and include a further special recipient address 3Bit1xA4apyzgmFNT2k8Pvnd6zb6TnwcTi  to whom you send a few satoshis. (You have to use send to many option in your wallet, to send them at once).
Any transactions that contain this special address will be ignored by 2X miners.
Once this is successful, you will have your BTC in an address(B) you own.

IIUC, I would not employ this mechanism for my coins. The part that I have underlined seems to require full faith in what the miners will do. You have no a priori method of knowing whether that address will 'be ignored' by any miner.

Dude just feckin stop flailing about shilling for this utter crap of an altcoin.
Your one mad discredited dumped dev Garzik has already merged that spammy shit into your altcoin.

Hey you guys, lay off jbreher.  I disagree with him, but he is polite and well reasoned...if wrong.

This thread does not have to be a total echo chamber.

Besides, he's probably kinda sad right now.

No. He's not well-reasoned. He lied many times to fool the newbies:

Quote from: jbreher on July 31, 2017, 08:18:30 PM
...
Sometimes, I state facts, and sometimes, I render opinions. I try not to exaggerate, I don't make up facts, and I try to keep my conclusions rational. When challenged, I produce rationale for my statements. Sometimes, I even get things wrong, but I always try to be truthful.
...

Not always. Sometimes you list your own lies neatly for everybody to see:


Those are not lies. That was posted in response to Lauda, who claimed something akin to 'jbreher never before made the claim that fully-validating, non-mining wallets add little to no value to the network as a system'. So that listing was refutation to Lauda's lies.

If you think that that fully-validating, non-mining wallets provide any benefit to the network as a whole, you do not understand Bitcoin. The only power such a wallet has is to amputate itself from the rest of the network.


Quote from: jojo69 on August 17, 2017, 05:18:42 AM

The remaining bigblockers are the laughingstock in the Bitcoin community, all Jonald Fyookballs 2.0.


I think it is dangerous to count them out, they are playing a longer game than 2 weeks.

Mock them, sure, criticize, deride, eviscerate to your hearts content...but do not take your eyes off them.

Therefore evisceration intensifies.

How long until the next dip?


I think we will get to 5200 and then it'll sharply drop to 4500-4700 again. We will get a taste of the 5s and then back to where it's comfortable.

I have nothing to back this up, it's just purely my feeling.

Edit. This is ruling out any fundamentals that may arise.

 In that case, please keep us abreast of any new fundamentals that develop.

I think it's been pointed out pretty clearly that that is not the case.  Coinbase managed to blacklist certain bitcoins years ago, demonstrating the lack of fungibility in bitcoin.  There would be no need, indeed, no ability, to investigate for 'taint' if it was fully fungible.

Help me with your thoughts on bitcoin futures.
If 1 contract 100 bitcoins? 900k USD? and there was  i think today 3000 buy/sell (or with other words 3000 combined going long + going short)
So 3000 times 900k usd = 2,7 billion USD in one day
Am i gettting this right ? i think not
I didnt get any repond so kindly if someone can answer me this please Smiley I would also add I am assuming (perhaps I am wrong?) bitcoin futures are direclty tied to bitcoin. So I am under assumtion if someone opens large volume of shorts for bitcoin futures, they go down, or if someone opens large volume of longs they go up ?
http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/equity-index/us-index/bitcoin_contract_specifications.html
No it's 5 btc per contract, so vol. is still tiny overall. Yes iirc CME is settled in btc, while CBOE is in usd http://cfe.cboe.com/cfe-products/xbt-cboe-bitcoin-futures
Here's their, generally bigger, volume http://cfe.cboe.com/cfe-products/xbt-cboe-bitcoin-futures with 1btc per contract
compare https://www.barchart.com/futures/bitcoin
Your final question - no, there is always a bigger fish who will counter-trade their competitors.

edit: Some traders are noticing a small CME factor, where spot price draws towards week's close price on CME, but most are unconvinced, again because of tiny volume.

With a +7-10% buy premium, people will never use them though.


This is not true.  People will use them for the novelty of owning bitcoin, or for buying very small amounts.  Or because they don't have a better way to do it.

But I agree with the spirit of your post.  Until these things begin to become competitive they will stay in the general realm of being a novelty.

TBH I'm not sure what these Bitcoin ATM operators are thinking with having those premiums so high. I assume it's an attempt to recoup the cost of the ATM itself maybe? But they would do well to get those buy premiums down to at least 2-3%, otherwise people will just jump online to do it.

Guessing it's tailored for the silkroad crowd. That's still a thing right???
Still a thing. Now called Tochka. Even has an ICO.

I found it really interesting article indeed, glad you liked it!

Today i'd like to submit this, let's see what you guys think about:) ....

Bitcoin doesn't exist
https://www.theautomaticearth.com/2017/12/bitcoin-doesnt-exist-the-full-story/
The first essay was shared pretty widely at the time and is overblown - nobody who counts (geddit?) missed the implications of triple-entry at the time.
But goodness, the second one is good stuff. On the basics, it is an excellent primer. There's some howlers (calling all the early unmoved coins Satoshi's, stating there's 22m coins max) and he's not so good on the future implications of bitcoin, some macro details, history of econ. Still a lot better than most. It really deserves a proper review.
Many thanks for sharing.

Fine. Except we don't know how many (nor which ones) of those VPN service providers are controlled by evil actors. So while it does help in some way, it also is not the panacea.

You know that openvpn is just the software and you need to connect to a VPN service provider... don't you?

P.S.: And if you meant that you can run the server side too and connect to your own VPN, that's not what we are discussing here as it completely defeats the purpose of masking your own transactions.

It's only half an hour ago and I've already forgotten what point I was trying to make. I bow to your judgment.

Far from being disintermediated, Wall Street is at the center of the new wave in interest in crypto. Liquidity in the crypto markets is powered by the same high-frequency trading firms that are dominate in equities, U.S. Treasuries, futures, and every other liquid asset class. Jump, the largest trader of U.S. Treasuries has a trading team of 22 people working on crypto according to a source familiar with the matter. That team is larger than any other single trading team (of which there are approximately two dozen) in the company. Hudson River Trading, Tower Research, and XR Trading all have large automated trading initiatives on the retail exchanges. (Notably absent from the list is Virtu.)

Your comments are irrelevant to my criticism of the invalid trading advice of 'you should buy on a small low volume drop. the low volume is bullish'. I dont get how you get off with suddenly diverting the subject back to the long term strategy (an admission of defeat actually) or worse yet 'am i even hodling bro' :facepalm:

We just have different perspectives on btc and crypto it seems. You are a trader while I am content hodling. Perhaps you are still building up a stash that allows you to sit back and relax like me. I wish you good luck!
I partake in both hodling and intermittent trading. Even when I am not doing the trading part I still participate in discussing TA and analyzing others' analysis

Beartrap sprung. Buying opportunity missed.

Seems so. At least 'sources' say:

https://theicojournal.com/cboe-source-winklevoss-denial-is-irrelevant-and-was-expected-by-us/

Our CBOE source: “The Winklevoss denial is irrelevant here. Those that realized that quickly are the voices you should listen to here. Our submission is equally backed by the principles needed to expect and approval, but also carries the heft of a regulatory agency that is part private sector and part pseudo-governmental agency. While we are a public company via capitalization, we are still closely tied to regulatory bodies given the need for public trust, etc, etc. That is where the SEC will focus its approval or disapproval chops. We still believe that approval of our Bitcoin ETF product is a near certainty. Just a question of timing and potential administrative delays.”

A former SEC charge (that we spoke to earlier in the week) gave us this little nugget: “The CBOE product is the most certain from an approval standpoint. The hybrid exchange/regulatory elements there make a world of difference. The SEC will have an internal interest in dealing equitably with the CBOE. Believe me when I say that. The Gemini decision was expected from those in the know and could have easily been predicted. Again, this stuff is more about timing than anything else. Approvals will come, it is more a matter of Q4 2018 or Q1 2019. And as I said before, that will open up the door to more crypto-based product submissions.”

I know for a fact that 'uncorrelated financial asset' was in play before it shows up on the chart.

In 2008 things were very close to locking up, and one of the cause/effect feedback loops were that 'letters of credit' upon which much of the global commerce system operates were about to fail.  Should that happen today, Bitcoin (or more generally crypto-currency) could rapidly take over in that role.  I would guess that values could go insane under such a scenario.  Of course crypto would be attacked mercilessly by some, but some of the would-be attackers would also be heavy users.  Not clear how things would play out, but it could be a spectacular fireworks show.
Intriguing commentary tyvm. There's something here for me also about generational knowledge.

The firm’s rise speaks volumes about the anything-goes world of cryptocurrencies, where the stated ideals of democratization are a joke and being an insider is the surest path to riches.

Despite an already six month cool-off period, for 2018 we see more sideways and downside potential in the Bitcoin price due to sluggish retail demand, hesitation from institutions, and a current market cap that seems too high relative to on-chain activity.

"Regarding the Forced Liquidation Incident on Jul 31, 2018

To reduce the market risks induced by this incident, the following actions will be executed:

    Injecting 2500 BTC from OKEx’s own capital pool into the insurance fund.
    During the settlement at 4pm August 3, 2018 (HKT), if any attempts of malicious manipulation of the settlement price are found, we will delay the settlement process for 10 minutes and manually adjust the price back into a reasonable level before delivery or settlement. The account which made the malicious attempt will be suspended immediately."


15 minutes till this goes into effect

bonus: "The client with user ID 2051247 initiated an unusually large long position order (4168515 contracts) at 2am on July 31 (HKT) and triggered our risk management alert system. Our risk management team immediately contacted the client, requesting the client several times to partially close the positions to reduce the overall market risks. However, the client refused to cooperate, which lead to our decision of freezing the client’s account to prevent further positions increasing 2. Shortly after this preemptive action, unfortunately, the BTC price tumbled, causing the liquidation of the account."

Definition of a bear market:  stupendously good news doesn’t move the needle.
Mixed news at best:

Sprecher’s plan for bringing crypto to the masses runs contrary to what Bitcoin supporters typically champion. The purists favor Bitcoin’s “distributed” architecture, and adamantly oppose putting a big exchange at the center of the both the Bitcoin investment and payments systems. “A regulated exchange with a custodian in the middle contradicts the basic idea of Bitcoin,” says Abhishek Punia, a crypto-currency analyst with venture capital firm Draper Associates. “Bitcoin was designed to be decentralized, without intermediaries taking fees. A regulated exchange may be popular for a short period of time, but it’s not the future. The future will be the original idea of a peer-to-peer network.”
...
“Bitcoin can’t survive as a rogue idea,” he [Sprecher]says. “To evolve, the cryptocurrencies need to run on established infrastructure. They need the trust and rules that have been built into our financial system for many years. They need the kind of trust that the Big Board represents.”

All that, and the coffee is foul.

Oh also it wasn't new news. We knew they were going to start derivatives.
We just didn't know they were tying up with Starbucks evil brewmaker - which, meh, it's like omg Overstock to take bitcoin 'news' from 2014.

Heard about one such failure a few months back. 2 might be called unlucky (for them). 3 though?
Conspiracy? AXA bribed TSMC? Or just a very difficult business to be in?

these are two distinct platform which coincidentally share the same name. Zimbeck doesn't have anything to do with the second one, afaik.
Thanks for clearing that up. Couldn't get the disparity between the 2 projects, and fell asleep reading the whitepaper stuff, but that's it.
