Hey guys, don't be so tense. Just sell your coins and you can enjoy life without worrying until there will be another uptrend Smiley Don't do this to yourself, you are still young with a long life ahead of you. Don't waste it worrying about some stupid coins Smiley

300 1 day EMA resistance holds for 4th day in a row.

I don't mean to sound like a nub (which I am) but could someone please explain me these EMA resistance, what they mean and other lingo like this.  I read the forums and I don't understand this.

EMA is sum of closing prices of some number of days divided by that number of days. So currently 300 EMA is around 465 and acts s resistance last 4 days. It acted as support for 2 days after first Chinese crap came in some 2 weeks ago.

Thanks seleme i appreciate it

BTCE are not letting me cash out !  Angry





I wrote to their support.

"Please remove withdrawal restrictions on my account."


and got this reply!

"Hello, it's actually difficult to understand what's the problem. Tell me please what's your question? "




try telling them what your trying to do and whats not working.

I'm on my 3rd ticket now.  They just send BS responses.  I sent them a screen shot this time!  If they come back again with more, strange replies I'll be getting very worried.  

I want to move to Stamp.
you're trying to move BTC out of BTC-E into stamps?

yep!  I'm waiting for the next response before losing my rag with them.

I was just thinking about 2 hrs ago that this volume feels like the calm before the storm.

What if this is the calm before the next calm? When the forces are lined up on the battlefield, usually the first guy across the line gets his ass shot off.

The first bear across the line gets to ride the rocket to most profits.

I heard tomorro price will skyrocket to the moon. (~110099$) - it is because China will ban bitcoin 8th time this month and all people of China will migrate to USA and buy all bitcoins! Smiley I dunno why - read it on www.thisisimpossible.com Cheesy


And to be honest - I am worried to this little drop today ... as I need to sell some BTC and pay bills Cheesy
You got the "pay bills" part right!  Wink

LTC taking a beating through all this as well...

yar nearly quoted Joinov and some guy talking about how they' couldn't resist 12 dollar ltc. while he shits all over bitcoin, I'm sure the 9 dollar ltc is 1/4 more attractive than 12.

edit: nearly became an actuality cause this kid thinks he isn't a huge troll
i couldnt resist to buy more of these 12$ ltcs Cheesy



same here Smiley

they do look attractive at $12




You are a fucking moron sir!  A vitriolic little spastic Smiley


Yep I brought LTC at $11.93 and sold at just over $12-$11.95 a few mins later as soon as I knew it was a trap.

Who still remembers 2010?

..Bitcoin price crashed intraday from $0.444 to as low as $0.383 before recovering to $0.40.

6 months later:

Price rose from $7 to $32 in a week.

Just add 3 zeros and relax.

I wish it would work that way with my EUR bank account  Cheesy

Does your valuation take into account the fact that Bitcoin mining as we know it will collapse very soon?


From 47 peta to 51.5 peta in less than a week. Yup, looks like a collapse to me.  Shocked I wonder if the network will be 1 exahash before the halving.

Are you of the opinion that difficulty will continue to increase?

Yes.  Firstly, I think mining will become very profitable again.  Secondly, cost per ghps will continue to plummet for at least 2 years.  Thirdly, the hardware is mostly going to keep running even if it is never profitable because there are too many people incentivized to keep the network secure (for themselves,not necessarily for me) for much of it to find a land-fill.

we have a little bit of buying to do today to get us back to the $500 levels..

Why bother. Someone will dump to make sure we go down again. It happened like 5 times now. You'd be crazy to buy at this point.

Crazy to buy at $500?  Many people bought higher than this.  I bought some higher than this.  I think it is crazy not to buy when considering where Bitcoin will be later this year or even this month!  Also, there have been times where it seems like Bitcoin is going nowhere then shoots up to a new ATH within just a few weeks. 

Calm down. I'm talking about this specific moment. As soon as we go up either someone starts dumping or Chinese fud appears. I would wait this out if i was a trader or i guess a long term buyer. We can easily go to 450 or lower again. If we break 520ish without someone stopping it i'd say it's buying time.
The current situation is pure manipulation by a small group of people if you'd ask me.

I am guessing that group is getting tapped out pretty soon. This has been going on for 2 weeks. I'm sure those idiots will be out of coins soon enough.

Sadly, centralization of mining means that less and less miners are long-term believers and holders, as these data-centers consider the electricity bills as more than a trivial expense.

These low prices are helping the big mining warehouses getting rid of the remaining competition. Soon there will be nothing but data centers mining coins... a bit sad really. But bitcoin is going pro. and that is also a positive thing in many respects.

looks like you can mine  0,00136101 BTC / DAY what is 0.5 per year if difficulty will not raise (how much electricity will it cost your parents ?)

The funny thing is that I considered mining but yea the difficulty is a pain.  If it stayed the same then maybe it would be worth it.  Now, if your small you need to reinvest otherwise you won't get anywhere

I was thinking about MTGox's 200,000 Bitcoins they found in that old wallet or whatever it is.  At some point the bankruptcy is going to sell those coins and dump them on the market in one big go turning them into FIAT.  There is no way I see them distributing out those coins as Bitcoins.  What will that do to the market?  If they released all 200,000+ coins at one time?  Seems to me that's exactly what they are going to do.
IF they decide to sell the coins, I expect that they will divide them into manageable lots, and auction them through some auctioning house.  I believe that would be the easiest way to get the best possible price for them. (The FBI will probably do the same with the SilkRoad coins, except that they will surely use the government auctioning services.) 

But that just pushes the question forward: what wiill the auction winners do with those coins?

And more importantly, where the auctions would be held  Grin

So what would you do if you had about 950 dollars to buy BTC? Buy now ? Wait ?





Dont take investment advice from people on the internet, especailly from people in a speculation forum where almost everyone is talking their book.

Ok !

Lax, go on charts like bitcoinwisdom, coinmarketcap, coindesk google news (search bitcoin)
and decide if you want to invest.  You can read comments here (and I suggest you take senior members posts more seriously)  (a few months ago, I asked if 800 was a good buy in and a senior type member kept telling me no.  so I guess just read comments and form your own conclusion.)

http://www.coindesk.com/us-government-sells-silk-road-users-seized-bitcoins-for-3-million/

"However, perhaps most interesting about the story is that the government has already sold more than $3m in the proceeds from Slomps’ crimes, Assistant US Attorney Randall Samborn told CoinDesk, though he declined to offer any further specifics about the sale."

I read the article to.  Its too short and mainly discusses the silk road scandal.  Even the comments show more interest in the selling.

I think they sold a portion of the coins (3 million worth).  I don't know if it was all, a fraction etc (most likely retail or close to retail since not much else is disclosed and (I base somewhat on the quote I added)

How do you know if someone likely would have purchased something anyway? That's not just a subjective judgement. That would require psychic powers. It's not a crime to have a criminal predisposition. It's a crime to violate the law and if that particular law would not have been violated by that particular person at that particular time and place without the police involvement, then it's entrapment. If you offer a certain number of bitcoins for a certain price at a certain place or time, then all you know for sure is that the accused wanted to buy those particular bitcoins for that particular price ant that particular time, and wouldn't have done so if he didn't have the opportunity.

You're not passively offering to sell something if you place an ad. If someone come up to you out of the blue and asks to buy your bitcoins and you agree, that's passive. Advertising is active.

What are the odds that someone goes to cocaine dealer/localbitcoins with no intent to buy, then suddenly decides to buy precisely because of one ad that likely does not overly stand out from the others? Even if that leap of faith did turn out to be true, good luck convincing 12 people of that with a prosecutor working them. I would think a good lawyer would recommend a different defense.

He picked that one ad for a reason. Perhaps a better price or more convenient location. Doesn't matter. It's that one ad he responded to and he wouldn't have responded to it if it wasn't there. Whether or not he would have responded to a different ad is irrelevant. He's not being charged with responding to a different ad. Good luck convincing all 12 jurors, including the one who has the capacity for independent thought, that you are prosecuting an illegal sale that would have occurred without a seller.

One of the biggest questions is whether you tried to resist the crime, so the fact that you "couldn't resist" necessarily makes it not entrapment.
Yeah, I tried to resist, I was mentally torn for hours before actually buying, I just couldn't resist; prove to me that I wasn't. /sarcasm

You could always ask everyone if they are the FBI before buying coins from them, that should keep you in the clear  Grin

Incorrect. The police can flat-out lie to you and still have it not be considered entrapment. It's when they harass you over and over until you eventually cave that is considered entrapment, or when they threaten you in some way to the point where it would be a reasonable assumption that you committed the crime out of fear.

In the US, in other countries it will be easier to prove entrapment

in the end the mod's job should be to weed out people who are NOT facilitating meaningful and substantive communications in these kinds of thread... and people who are merely trying to inflame and distract without contributing to the subject matter.  

Who decides the precise rules for that, though? How do you draw the line between moderation and censorship? IMO if you're not posting shit like meatspin, goatse, or viruses, your posts are fair game even if they are inflammatory.

Moderators, admins and OPs decide those kinds of issues.  I am just stating my opinion, and if I were in a position to have influence over that, I would NOT allow posts that are merely being made to incite and distract and insult other posters.  Apparently, this forum has a very liberal acceptance of trolling and does NOT recognize that trolling tends to take away value from the forum.  That is their business choice, and obviously fairly liberal when the mod himself/herself admits that s/he is engaging in posts to merely inflame others.

Or is there somewhere else are you talking about?  And I do not think any money can be earned from sigs (if I had to guess) (I see ads asking for people who want to advertise though).

Yes, pyramid schemes usually have that effect. Those who invested will only make money if more people invest (and hold) so that the price goes up so that they can sell with profit.

You don't see people who bought Apple or Google stock pestering everyone in sight to buy too. Real investors know that other real investors do not pay attention to hype, they look for fundamentals.

As for "increasing adoption", do not see it in the blockchain:

https://blockchain.info/charts/estimated-transaction-volume
https://blockchain.info/charts/n-transactions

Also this chart seems to say that the bitcoin system currently costs 30 USD per transaction:
https://blockchain.info/charts/cost-per-transaction
The cost of running the system is currently hidden in the inflation caused by mining, but in the long run will have to be paid by users as transaction fees.  If the numbers above are correct, bitcoin will be inviable for payments below 1000 USD.

I would like to trade on bitstmap....  I've never heard of this exchange. Are there low fees?



lol.... the only thing huge about the current "rally" is that it might actually be breaching the bear triangle... other than that it is very very small indeed.

You never heard of bitstamp?  When I first heard of btc (some guy lost a harddrive) I googled bitcoin and I think bitstamp was the first thing I clicked on (to get the price).

As far as bitstamp, enter it into the search box.  There are some reviews.

Well, I hope this continues. Price only has to go to $3000.00 USD to break even on my $12k investment between buying in Feb/March and investing in mining gear.

Ha.  Cry

Well you could invest in ltc.  If ltc is 10 now and you think it has a better chance of getting to 100 vs. btc going to 3k, make your bet.
or just day trade or something.

Stay the fuck away from LTC, IMHO.

HODL. And keep on mining. Although I stopped my miner 3 weeks ago, since it's not profitable enough for me atm.

Ltc is 10+ right now.  If it goes back to 30, thats triple your investment.  If the guy I originally replied to wanted to make his capital back, Ltc might have a better shot of tripling to 30 vs bitcoin to 1500.
Not saying it will, but it can.  or if he feels more comfortable with btc, its up to him.

I think when those kncminer (I know kncminer is going through some shit now but they might fix it in a few months, not saying that they will or anything), viper and other scrypt miners hit the market,

I think more people will help grow the scrypt coins and the price will rise.  Ltc could very well triple in a few months (Of course btc might be a better ROI but who knows)

Yes be wary of LTC, it hasnt got much going for it anymore and one of the pools has also been flickering around 50% has rate for a few days as well.


Can you explain?
Never really saw the point in LTC, but what's different now?

Well, besides from the sheer number of alts some of the new ones (drk,monero etc) have got real world useful features. LTC apart from its second mover advantage only has faster block times which is now included in a huge amounts of alts.

Whats the advantage of LTC over an alt thats faster and anon?

I read a few things on darkcoin and seems to be growning.  Ltc does has the 2nd largest market cap (300+ million and is on huobi).  I think its has a good community.  It is basically an alternative (easier mining....until the knc and viper and other scypt miners hit the scene)
Also, look at dogecoin.  It has unlimited market supply and is doing relatively well because of the community that supports it.

so I think its all about the supporting community that will make ltc succeed

Kinda have it like a wallet now but will trade with them in the future

If it is a lot, you might want to be careful by securing your bitstamp account (that recent localbitcoin attack affected even those with 2factor authentication).    Trading is always good, just safeguard yourself.

Guess what: most intelligent people understand that government and public services are a good thing, and that taxes are necessary to have them.
Most intelligent people 300 years ago thought people could be owned, leeches were medicine, and that outer space was filled with ether. The logical fallacy you are making is called http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum.  
I am not advancing that fact that as proof that governments are good. The point is that calling taxation "stealing from the people" is not reasonable, since most people believe (rightly or wrongly) that taxes are necessary and everybody should pay them.  

Of course, many or even most people may think that certain taxes are unjustified or unfair, and that certain government spending is waste.  That does not invalidate the point.


Boa noite Sr Jorge Stolfi,

Sou brasileiro também, tenho 22 anos e sou graduando de administração na Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Percebi que você tem um bom conhecimento do que é a experiência Bitcoin e que está buscando se informar mais. Isso é muito bom para a nossa mídia, e melhor ainda para quem quer a informação que agrega conhecimento, não só pipoca e circo.

De qualquer forma, acho que tem bastante material aqui de muita qualidade evidenciando falhas no nosso atual sistema e com embasamento teórico e histórico (queda do império romano - por exemplo). Me coloco a disposição para conversamos, caso seja do seu interesse.

Rafael

Goodnight Mr Jorge Stolfi,

Also I am Brazilian, I'm 22 and I'm majoring in administration of Federal University of Santa Catarina. I noticed that you have a good knowledge of what is Bitcoin experience and who is seeking to learn more. This is very good for our media, and even better for those who want the information that brings new knowledge, not just popcorn and circus.

Anyway, I think there's enough material here for a lot of quality showing flaws in our current system and the historical and theoretical basis (fall of the Roman Empire - for example). I put my hand to speak, if of interest.

Yes.  Jorge thinks bitcoin is a dangerous ponzi and makes an argument there by first presenting a stawman argument in the form of an extreme false dichotomy.

Is this news?  He has seemed fairly transparent in his views of bitcoin.

I personally think he is wrong.

But who knows?

Statements like the one quoted below get me everytime. Isn't this statement also true for every central bank fiat currency, IE the USD? The USD is only worth what we believe its worth, in that what we are willing to trade for the $1.

Quote
The fact is that bitcoins have no value in themselves : they are only worth what people believe they are worth .

If anyone has better insight as to why or how this statement is true for bitcoin, but not for fiat. Please, please let me know. I'm awaiting enlightenment Smiley

the bank note is a promise

A promise of what though? Only that they would give you a different US dollar for it?

A promise that they will tax you.

Indeed, and that is the problem:  many external factors are sudden and unpredictable, and the magnitude of their effect is largely unpredictable as weel.  But, in retrospect ,the causal connections are very clear.  

One cannot predict, from price analysis or any other way, whether and when there will be further moves against bitcoin by the Chinese government.  One can say however that if that happens then the price will probably fall by tens or dollars or more, depending on the severity of the move.  And if the PBoC reverses its policy about banks x exchanges, then the price may shoot up by hundreds of dollars.  On the other hand one can predict that if another store chain accepts bitcoin through BitPay, then the price will hardly twitch.

Since the last rally was due to the opening of the Chinese market, another rally to 10'000$ would require opening another market even bigger than the Chinese one.  Perhaps some big regulatory change would attract big investors in the US or Europe; but who can predict that?

It is not rational to expect that new markets will continue to open at regular intervals, each 10x bigger than the previous one, just because there were three such events before with roughly similar spacing.


Your whole argument fails here. BTCChina was established in 2011 after the $32 bubble. Bitcoin has been opening to Chinese since that was only $2
heh..he believes markets are entirely saturated already.  lol

Compare the marketcap to single companies, single individuals..it's laughable.

Maybe he needs to read what Marc Andreessen wrote about it today

I think this is the link he is referring to (not sure though)

"The investor and Web browser pioneer Marc Andreessen thinks we'll all look back in 20 years and conclude that Bitcoin was as influential a platform for innovation as the Internet itself was. He says that tech companies think their meetings with President Obama on privacy are a waste of time. And he calls net neutrality a "lose-lose." In a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Post this week, Andreessen painted a picture of a future that's distributed, messy and fraught with tension. Here's an edited transcript of our conversation."

It's so odd how many of you waited for the price to reach 500 or so to buy back in.

It's not odd at all. When you have months of bear market and tricky China situation, your best bet is to wait signs of reversal to buy in (if you're going for long term buys).

In last bubble I went full in only at 250+, never gave a flying one about not buying earlier when we hit the top.

If someone waited through 800, then 700, then 600, then 500.  Why would they buy at 400?  The ones who were eager to buy, probably did at the higher prices.  Many people on here stated to be patient and not buy in a downtrend unless they were willing to take the potential loss (if it goes down even more).

Buying at an uptrend at 50-100 extra per btc is what some feel is ok (if they believe the reversal has happened).

satoshi could do the same thing with btc one day.

Satoshi surprisingly has not moved the majority of his coins.  From reading his posts from when he was on here (and the p2p site he originally posted to), he seems to care about the community (especially when he cleared dorien).

He probably would not kill his own creation.  If anything, he might use the coins to help any furture issues (or future bitcoin related endeavors)

No, fiatleak is BS because its just trade volume (right?)

I am not sure.  I only use fiatleak just to watch an average of what is pushed per hour.  You are probably correct about the volume.  I would only base it on huobi (bitcoinwisdom) but its very close to stamp so only fiatleak gives me some more info.

It seems so. I haven't heard of anyone being asked ridiculous stuff like this withdrawing BTC but Stamp was my reliable exchange that even if I did some trades elsewhere Stamp was the fiat gateway.

Can anyone confirm? And how much money must it be for these kind of problems to show up?

Read around there has been a few stories of these new requirements going around. Thats the main issue, there is no advertised threshold that you bump up against these problems. The guy was trying to draw max $4000, thats pocket change! The other explanation is its worked out on trade volume but how fucking retarded. I could trade the same 10 coins 1000 times or do one 10k trade, which one should raise the most flags?

But there's still no problems of bitcoin withdrawal right?

Fortunately for you, if these things bother you and you'd rather have a malleable money supply managed by unelected officials who can seize funds and reverse transactions at will: you are well served with the current monetary paradigm - be it Keynesian, monetarist or neocon - the differences are of cosmetic character, really.

Those of us with the (obviously wrong!) view that a monetary system should be predictable and not prone to manipulation by individuals have been longing for the chance to try out something like that. It will quite obviously fail, because centralized systems run by experts are naturally superior to decentralized systems run by no one but some people just need to convince themselves on their own, deferring to the wise opinions of experts is not enough for them. And who knows - if by some freak accident such a monetary system turns out to be better than what we have now, you will benefit as well Wink
My preferences are not important.  The point is that a system that does not allow the forcible return of stolen property will not be acceptable to society, except for thieves and other criminals.  In the end, it will be rejected even by the libertarians who now think that irreversibility is a good thing.

Bitcoin is just as easy to "forcibly return" as cash, gold, precious metals or any other form of property.  If I'm wrong, please explain why.



You are very wrong. It is easier to return than cash or gold Wink

something is not right today.

bitstamp 15 lower than finex (that was never before)
lots of double spends today.
ghash 45% already, still rising.

I think the finex increase is due to people switching over. Someone in my post (last comment) made sense https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=647117.msg7233939#msg7233939 @ the double spend.

ghash (thought was decreasing since yesterday) but i do not think ghash is a threat (they would be killing their own investment) and a few articles on reddit by andreas said it should not be much to worry about.

Hopefully everything goes back to normal.

Yeah Bitfinex might be a better choice than BTC-E, a very legit operation.
But for the time being I think anything is better than stamp.

The bitstamp/bitfinex spread is getting huge. Very strange.

FFS!!

Quote
I'll try to answer here: we used to include Bitstamp orderbook into our own orderbook for liquidity purpose. In other words, we were arbitraging between our own platform and Bitstamp. However as we continue to grow we decided to slowly (and I insist on "slowly" Smiley withdraw this arbitraging program to let people do the arbitraging themselves. This is why you started to see a difference between the price on our platform and Bitstamp, as arbitraging for third parties is interesting only after a certain threshold (around 1% like now is not a very good opportunities).

http://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinMarkets/comments/27vq6b/why_the_large_difference_between_bitstamp_and/ci533wg
Dude, we have seen that lol

The point is that this explanation doesn't account for the magnitude of the spread and the sporadical dumps that other exchanges don't follow as closely like they used to (they do that with a delay), like  derpinheimer pointed out.

I know that people have invested in Bitstamp, that it has been around blah blah, the point is that the signs are there, like they were there with gox. Considering you could lose a fortune for now just GTFO and run for your life until the situation gets clearer.

If you don't trust other exchanges and you don't wanna sell just put it in cold storage FFS!

could be, and after my 595 bid got filled and it didn't look good for going down much further (virtex of course) I did pull the rest of my bids and got them in at 596.

so now I've run out of fiat. more is on the way, but probably won't clear until mid-late next week.

I like every buy point below 800 actually, from long term perspective, but I'd always like to maximize if I can.



i was buying b4 the news... so i sold a few hours after i heard the news, and bought back on the way down.

The majority of coins are not on the market. If you look at the exchanges volume per day, its not that much. A 30k sell or something, could swing prices. But obviously its unlikely a dump of this magnitude would occur (at the same time).

Objectively, what are our chances of going lower?  I can throw in some fiat and buy some coins, but this is probably the last time I will be buying for 6 months or a year.  Ignoring the trolls, is there a legitimate chance of hitting $500?

DO NOT take any advice from anybody here! Don't ever ask other people here what to do with your money! I know you see all these lines and charts and mainly bears who act like they know it all but i can guarantee you that not a single person here knows where Bitcoin will go. Every bear here will tell you we 100% sure will see 500 again. That's because they're sad little creatures who do nothing but lie and manipulate because they want the price to go down.
The bulls obviously want the price to go up but will be a bit more modest and say we likely won't see 500 again. Either way any info you'll get is coloured and worthless.
The fact that you want to invest in Bitcoin means you believe it will be worth more in the future. If you do then you should buy. 500 or 560 is meaningless in the long run if this thing takes off. If you don't think it will take off then don't. Waiting is kinda pointless because again nobody knows what it will do.

Yes, don't listen to that advice...

Listen to all advice given here, it's is 100% factual and we can all predict the future!

Which would place touching the previous ATH into late Q3/early Q4 2014, and actually making a new one into 2015.

I'm okay with that, matches my own (fuzzy, LT) ideas pretty well, but this is probably a hard sell  to the salivating bulls that want to break $1000 in 2 weeks from now.

As much as I'd like to see a rally in 2014, I'm secretly hoping for one in early 2015 instead.  Reason being, a) I plan to sell some and for tax purposes would like that to happen after Jan 1st 2015 so I don't have to report any gains until 2016, and b) because I think the rally will go much higher the longer it holds off.

If you are a U.S. resident, you could move coins into a Roth vehicle, up to about 50k USD in value per year.  Then you could actually hold them offshore, and have no tax reporting obligations, no FATCA or FBAR reporting, and no tax liability regardless of reporting.  Note that I am not a tax attorney and this is not legal advice.

It bears repeating that if we do not make an ATH before an ETP gets listed, the next hype cycle may be a 50x-100x supercycle.

The auction will generate a fair amount of publicity and then there is the perception of tacit approval of Bitcoin by the US government. This can have a significant influence of deep pocketed investors sitting on the sidelines. In a rising market the trigger is what the losing not the winning bidders decide to do. This auction can easily produce a series of disappointed deep pocketed players who did not get their BTC. The question then becomes what will they do?

Oh, alright. Thanks for your response. Hopefully the media coverage is in a positive light. More people should get involved because of it. Yea hopefully the losers do not feel like they missed out (enough not to get involved or something. It makes more sense now (and same for alley above, I was considering that above as well)

FBI coins will prob get 90% of market value since their lots are ridiculously huge. At least they're doing it off the exchange.

It's only 8.3 days of block rewards. Not exactly that much and for people interested in buying big time also very much doable lot sizes.
8.3 days of block rewards is a tremendous amount... not even a company like Coinbase would buy that.

finex looks the same to me on bitcoinwisdom (as stamp)
whats the difference?

If you look at structural highs and lows, BFX has diverged considerably from Stamp. They used to move in tandem, since BFX shared Stamp's liquidity, but that is not the case anymore. It's actually kind of fucked up -- BFX doesn't have a thick enough order book to support all its margin trading.

Oh sorry, deleted that comment since I wrote a previous comment similar.

We still cant seem to crack $600 consistently. Need to mount some more buy support at $600 and $600+


once this gov auction ends we should see the rise continue.

Yes, Silkroad coin auction resisting market to move upwards because no one know which price it will sell. It is really annoying.

There will probably be low bids and close to retail bids. If someone really wants it, they might just bid actual price or even above average

I do not think a 51% attack would mean the end. The pool would have to have a malicious intent. The people in the pool, probably would switch over to another pool (or the smaller pools could form together).

The 51% attack could only affect future blocks and not past blocks so, people could just stop using btc or blockchain could shut down until issue is resolved.

New modifications can prevent future attacks. I just do not see it as a serious threat. Does anyone agree with me on here (or am I missing something?)

But they were able to move it to a different address.. So they already have acess to it?
Is this the SR address? https://blockchain.info/address/1FfmbHfnpaZjKFvyi1okTjJJusN455paPH

I guessed that (haven't really looked into it). Mostly made the meme for like a funny what if scenario  Grin

We’re the backbone of the entire Bitcoin industry,” says Kodrič, 25, who’s wearing a black t-shirt with “Zero Excuses” in fluorescent green capital letters. “The wallet services, ATM machines, mining companies all rely on us. The price of Bitcoin is the de facto price on Bitstamp. We’re the to-go exchange.”

Oh, the hubris!  Can't wait for solid U.S.-based exchanges to knock 'em down a notch or two.

Good that they're visible though, makes it easier to find them.   Cheesy

Lol I just read that to (backbone)

First, there are no women in bitcoin.

Second, if I left, I really worry about what will happen around here. Since this is what you people do to others whom you disagree with (coerce them to leave the forums) I'm one of the few actual voices of reason that remain.

How old are you 10? I don't ignore people very often even fonzie is not on my ignore list (he used to be though), but I will gladly add you to the list. You're a shit stain on this forum, so bye now. Smiley

You can ignore me, but you can't ignore my message! Nobody can deny the truth.

Informal surveys in here (one of which I started myself), Bitcoin meetups, those I've attended myself and those I've seen pictures of, point towards ~10% "women in Bitcoin" currently.

Not nearly enough to claim both genders are equally represented, but definitely too much to pretend "there are no wominz in bitcoin hur dur". (hint: "there are no women on the Internet" also doesn't mean what you probably think it means.)

the 'girlsgonebitcoin' subreddit is proof that there are indeed lots of girls involved in bitcoin! Wink

(nsfw)

I was curious. I seen girlsgonebitcoin. I don't get it. You send the funds to their address and then what? You get pictures or a skype or something? Just curious, no one judge me!  Grin

It's arguably the first day of the next 234 day bubble cycle. Also mtgox is auctioning their bitcoins. There are a few other things happening around then also (Bitcoin conference is 19/20th)

Huh No

Oh, they're auctioning bitcoins.com. Oops Cheesy

Oh yea, I remembered reading that. I wonder if it will have any effect on the price.

I don't believe there are that many above 70.
I don't believe there are so few under 18 Smiley

lol, I deleted that original post because I realized now that I think about it, its more likely that older people 70+ are somewhat into btc. Just the other day, this old guy using was this coupon on his smartphone (I don't understand how that works though).

3 people under 18. I only think I seen one confirmed on here (sam, simon or something).

Holy fuck, i'm a Hero member. I can die peacefully now.

congrats Ivanhoe!

What new things are you allowed to do? I know heros can disable ads and can downrate someone and it counts as legit (like if a hero wants to downrate a scammer). What other added benefits (Is there a special place on the forum heros can post - I know there is one for donators)
