I just closed my long. I believe it's very little upside left, and not worth the risk, better to lock in profits.

How unbelievably short-sighted of you.

Congrats on your profit, tho.

If you don't mind I'd like to ask you all a few serious questions.
1. When is "moon" for you guys? Everyone has their own "moon" value.
2. When your "moon" figure has been achieved how will you sell a large amount of coins or will you always keep bitcoin?
3. Will you always keep a portion of your stash and never convert to fiat?

1. $10k
2. Sell 100 Coins.
3. Keep rest of stash. Re-evaluate at $15k

The kids here don't even know that we ancients used to mine BTC with GPUs. Jeez.
I heard that Satoshi mined the first million on his abacus.

http://www.righto.com/2014/09/mining-bitcoin-with-pencil-and-paper.html

Conclusion

The SHA-256 algorithm is surprisingly simple, easy enough to do by hand. (The elliptic curve algorithm for signing Bitcoin transactions would be very painful to do by hand since it has lots of multiplication of 32-byte integers.) Doing one round of SHA-256 by hand took me 16 minutes, 45 seconds. At this rate, hashing a full Bitcoin block (128 rounds)[3] would take 1.49 days, for a hash rate of 0.67 hashes per day (although I would probably get faster with practice). In comparison, current Bitcoin mining hardware does several terahashes per second, about a quintillion times faster than my manual hashing. Needless to say, manual Bitcoin mining is not at all practical.[5]

A Reddit reader asked about my energy consumption. There's not much physical exertion, so assuming a resting metabolic rate of 1500kcal/day, manual hashing works out to almost 10 megajoules/hash. A typical energy consumption for mining hardware is 1000 megahashes/joule. So I'm less energy efficient by a factor of 10^16, or 10 quadrillion. The next question is the energy cost. A cheap source of food energy is donuts at $0.23 for 200 kcalories. Electricity here is $0.15/kilowatt-hour, which is cheaper by a factor of 6.7 - closer than I expected. Thus my energy cost per hash is about 67 quadrillion times that of mining hardware. It's clear I'm not going to make my fortune off manual mining, and I haven't even included the cost of all the paper and pencils I'll need.

Without being too rude do you think it will make a dent?

I'm not sure how much of a dent dumping my stash would have on the BCH markets - Have not been following, except when I refresh https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/views/all/ from time-to-time.

All I know is, if I dumped my entire stash on the BTC markets, it would DEFINITELY make a dent and the market would feel it.

I don't say this as a boast (... more of a humblebrag ...) but more as a fact when looking at the order books, seeing "X BTC can be sold for a total of YM USD until price goes below $XXXX" and recognizing it's a number that would cause a drop of a few hundred dollars and likely cause some people to panic.

Having said that, I don't plan on touching ANY of my BTC until 2020 AT THE EARLIEST. Don't think I'll be acquiring any more either at current prices.

I have enough.

EDIT: Just did the math on Kraken. If I dumped all at once, I'd tank the price of BCH ~20%

I'm one of those crazy folk that like to make sure I pay more than my fair share of taxes. Between my partner and I, the businesses we run, and the associations we have, we don't have the luxury of not paying tax.

Usually end up getting a refund, but the last couple years we've had to cut some painful checks to the IRS for back-taxes and penalties due to being in some strange class where we should have been paying taxes quarterly instead of annually, but that's a some past bullshit I throw money at my accountants to resolve for me.

BTC down <5%, BCH down >20%.

And Kraken is being assy with me trying to do outgoing wires to my bank (Shows up as "Failure"). Don't want to dump any more BCH until I've resolved whatever issues Kraken is having with my account.

Nice ! Kraken just ate an order of mine at $720.

Now if I could only get this outgoing wire-transfer looniness resolved.

Gotta send more coins to Kraken tomorrow when wake up.

Lots of people still have coins to sell. The flood gates haven't even opened yet.

Today I learned that there are - from what Kraken tell me - new regulations in that only allow Tier 4 individual accounts to withdraw $100k USD fiat per year.

To withdraw more than $100k in fiat, you need to apply for a corporate account.

Sheeit.

Wish I knew that before I signed up and started all this.

There's something fishy on that Kraken statement that they limit TIER 3 to $100.000 anually.

Yeah, I'm sorta kinda sweatin' over here while my fiat is at the mercy of whatever processes they have in place.

I can't imagine what they delay is, other than perhaps support is overburdened.

I thought Kraken was one of the more reputable exchanges to use in the USA, which is why I went with them for the BCH stuff.

They inform me the withdrawal issue has been escalated.

I'm not about to argue with a newly emerging financial hub, holding a considerable sum of my fiat, adhering to government guidance, while trying to be above-board with my tax obligations.

Therefore, our question becomes do we reallocate based on that kind of investment that is way more allocated than what we had originally created.

Dump BCH holdings entirely for a considerable windfall.

Take out whatever fiat you need / want to be silly with, convert the rest to BTC. Heck. Take all the BCH-turned-fiat and reinvest into traditional holdings if you're less risk-averse.

In 2020, at the block halvening, I'm thinking of dumping $1M worth of BTC (hoping it's near $10k USD/BTC at that point), and seeing how long I can live off that, after giving Uncle Sam his 40% cut.

There is a lot of downward pressure right now.. or at least a holding pattern.. but at the same time, the bearwhales cannot get the price to go down.  Maybe we could go down to $4200 before resuming our upwards, perhaps?

As long as we stay comfortably above $4k for a while, I'll be happy. No idea what October will bring, but here's hoping for it peaking back to near $5k by Halloween.

(I think owning full auto is illegal in USA)
Popular misconception. There is no federal prohibition upon private citizens owning full auto weapons.

True, but the scrutiny to legally purchase those weapons is not worth the hassle to me.

To my understanding, if you have a license to purchase that type of weaponry, the ATF basically has carte-blanche access to "raid" you whenever they want for whatever reason - under the auspices of a "compliance check" or some other regulatory reasons.

Not worth it IMO.

If I ever want to have fun shooting serious guns, I'll go out to Vegas and hook up with a bunch of ex-military/soldier-of-fortune types, while plinking at 12" steel plates out of a BMG .50 in the desert at 250 yards.

Good luck with that in the future. I'm sure now after this Vegas incident, the State will make sure that is made more difficult or possibly illegal moving forward.

I don't see how.

We circle back to the fact that the recent shooting was perpetrated by illegally acquired and modified firearms.

Here's another thing that really sucks about the recent Vegas shooting; as a legal concealed carrier, there was NOTHING you could have done to protect yourself in this type of sniper situation.

Legal gun owners are not the problem in this country.

Women vote more uniformly than men, which means the moment women got the vote, women controlled politics. And women always vote for more security at the expense of freedom. Which, as every american knows, means you will get neither.
This explains why there's no women into bitcoin. Bitcoin is all freedom and very risky.
Women's nature is passive. There's no way to change it, despite what hysterical feminists want.

I'm not sure what sort of women you hang around with, but I'm gay, and know several of them who have wallets. Even knew one that had a few S3's and mined back in the day.

Maybe you need to get out and meet more women ?

Every single person I've come across using r/K selection theory to describe human affairs has been defining themselves as a "K".

Then every single person that has likely labeled themselves as K is being dishonest with themselves and have not exercised introspection.

I agree with the general premise that most apex organisms will transition from an r to K (or even to Super K in rare cases).

It's possible to vacillate between r and K states throughout a lifetime.

I myself, can introspectively see my own development from r to K, back to r, then to K again, to (possibly) a Super K ? (supporting/leading a larger familial genetic pool/community, at the expense of failing to pass on my own genetics...)

Speaking to your point, however, I do believe that, ultimately, most apex organisms do aspire towards K status, but perhaps view themselves that way through a warped lense or lack of cognition.

And yes, I can see how some could argue this post is ironic and filled with flawed-logic.

Debate.

 I'm not here to buy or sell anything other than lulz/bantz.

 Having said that, as an organism that seeks to understand more about itself and the environment it lives in, learning about r/K Selection Theory in these last few days has been blowing my mind, and I've been consuming a considerable amount of time researching it further.

 I can't really argue against the core theory. Looking at the path my own life has taken me, viewed through an r/K lense, I see the purity of it all.

It would not be reasonable to quit my job right away, but I can't see myself continuing for years, that's for sure.

I'm in the same boat as you, presently.

My hoard passed the "Fuck You" money-level a few months back and since then I've been really starting to question a lot of things about life. "Why am I not enjoying life when I have more than I could responsibly spend in my lifetime ? I'm completely debt free, Thank God."

Going to hold out for three more stock vesting cycles and then make a decision late in the summer about retiring a year earlier than planned.

At the end of the day, I still do enjoy the work I do, find it mostly gratifying, and still am learning quite a bit in my old age. It's... ((( them ))) that make things unenjoyable and aggravating with social politics in my work environment.

It's all about perspective I guess.

I know I'm retiring "soon", just "not yet".

That's pretty interesting. How many BTC have you traded over the years into Gold? (percentual over your current stash I mean, not real/exact figures).

All I know for sure is, over the last few years, GLD has been the single worst performing asset in my portfolio.

Surely gold or any other traditional investments didn't have the ROI of BTC but...... maybe it contributed to the ROI of your Bitcoin stash.... How? Well, once you already have extracted/diversified enough into other assets (like gold) that you feel financially safe you can let your BTC roll without that much care than if you didn't.
My point is stable (bad performing) assets are another piece in the puzzle of financial safety. Or at least that's what I tend to think, but I like to hear more opinions about it.

Huh ? Wha ? The only way I'm going to get any "contribution" to my financials from liquidating my GLD holdings, will be a deduction to offset capital gains.

If an asset performs as badly as GLD has, for as long as it has, my strategy is to put it into something more aggressive. I'll be liquidating my GLD holdings this year, and reinvesting.

Any investment not likely to pull in greater than 8% a year bores me.

I've tried to be "responsible" by holding GLD for as long as I have on principle, but, fuck it. Life is too short.

Anyway, I think Bob introduced some interesting idea such as that if you have several different "risky" (with better ROI's) investments then you are somewhat diversified/hedged enough without that much need of boring/conservative traditional investments. I guess that's something you can only safely do when you are already well "covered" as he seems to be. Interesting.

Apologies if I came off sounding brusque and detached.

You have hit the nail directly, though. Again, risking braggadocio, my portfolio is diversified enough ("covered") that an asset exhibiting the "stability" of GLD bores me to tears and does nothing for me.

My money market accounts outperformed GLD for the last two years.

So as Bitcoin rolls past 7350 with a ho hum, I think it's time to define some standards.
For example: What is the standard Lamborghini that people put in their portfolios? The LP500S is a great car, but kind of rare-ish and wonky. Would the Diablo be a standard unit of measurement, or something else?

In an effort to define a standard, I propose we use the Lamborghini Huracán as a baseline, at - for the sake of argument - $200k USD.

We're getting so close to $10kCAD that I can almost smell it. That's a real milestone for us Canucks. People laughed at us  when we predicted it not that long ago. Look at us now.

 Was speaking to some extended family in Canada yesterday. They were joking back-and-forth about buying a new Porsche Boxster that was on display at a Porsche mini-store at a mall - $98k CDN.

 Did the math in my head. Realized "That's about 11 Bitcoins for them to own that Boxster. Hmm."

 No. I'm not buying them a Boxster (... not right now, anyway ...) but it's amazing that sometime soon, 10 BTC will buy you a blinged out Porsche Boxster in Canada.

 Even more amazing that, hopefully, in a few years, 1 BTC will buy you 1 Porsche Boxster.

Well I successfully did that. But had I left my original investment in it would have nearly doubled in fiat value again. C'est la vie.

 If it's any consolation, I'm going to be liquidating $2M worth of BTC middle of 2018 and retiring early.

 I'm already kicking myself because I know in another 10 years, that $2M i'm going to sell will be incalculably more valuable.

 Then I put things into perspective and think "Well, the rest of the ~70% of my Bitcoin stash should appreciate nicely over time..."

 In theory.

 My partner is going to continue working for another couple years before joining me in early retirement.

 Gonna be their sexy pool boy and french maid for a couple years in the meantime...

Why buy that much fiat all at once? Why not just buy as much as you need as you go along.

1) For tax purposes - Really simplifies things for that year - I need to start thinking about simplifying taxes if I'm retiring.
2) So I can properly allocate it, in one go, to institutional investments that I can consistently draw down-on before I turn 65 - When my retirement portfolio becomes accessible

 I thought about selling BTC as needed - It's likely to be much more lucrative long-term - but I'm someone who likes simplicity when it comes to accounting and the IRS.

 Either way, still have 9 months or so before I'll be doing anything.

 God only knows what Bitcorn is going to do between now and then...

Why ?
I ask with no snark or ill-intention.
Everything I've witnessed thus far with BCH BTC, is nothing but power-plays by selfish (State) Actors.
It's against everything Satoshi stood for.
How can anyone support this, unless it's for selfish reasons ?
That's exactly what a BCH fan would ask of a BTC fan. Hence the eternal deadlock.

Well sheeit. Guess I'll just stick with HODLing BTC then.  Huh

My partner just left on a business trip for a few days, and asked me to convert their BCH to BTC after I informed them of the pump.

From my perspective, it is Blockstream/Core that are tampering with Bitcoin, by refusing to allow a much-needed capacity increase to reduce fees and allow for continued growth, and then by fundamentally changing the structure of the BTC coin by adding segwit.  
Bitcoin Cash represents the original vision for Bitcoin as peer-to-peer electronic cash.  I will continue work to realize this vision, and help resist the hijack attempt by Blockstream and Core.

From my perspective, Roger Ver/Jihan Wu/et al are tampering with Bitcoin by spamming the mempool, dividing the community, and not "seeing the forest-through-the-trees" with the hack-job that is Bitcoin Cash.

Bitcoin is the backbone. Segwit helps the backbone scale for more/cheaper TPS.

It's just common sense.

Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Core are equally centralized / decentralized.  Think about it.  How could they not be?  They both draw from the same pool of miners, the same pool of investors, the same pool of users, the same pool of businesses, and the same pool of developers.
The differences are the Bitcoin Core has the advantage as being what the layperson thinks of as "bitcoin" and what most of the infrastructure is currently setup to interface with.  Bitcoin Cash has the advantage of low fees, reliable confirmation times, and the ability to scale to a global payment network.  
Time will tell which version of bitcoin will win.

>Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Core are equally centralized / decentralized.  Think about it.  How could they not be?

What ? Equally centralized / decentralized ? Huh ? Do you understand what the word "centralized" means to begin with ?! BCH is not centralized ?!??

>what the layperson thinks of as "bitcoin" and what most of the infrastructure is currently setup to interface with...

Reliable confirmations times for BCH ? Hah ! Shall I pull up some data from fork.lol and make you cry ? Cheaper fees ? Yeah, well, having the mempool attacked as it has been, has a bit to do with that. Would you not agree ?

I read people accused those two for neat fall of bitcoin and big rise of bitcoin cash. Like i learn 2 methods were used.
1: mining: a lot of mining force was switched to bitcoin cash
2: big amount of "tiny trades"
Now i am not sure which one was more influental, 1 or 2, but if part 2 (large scale small trades) played big role (such thing happened i think also yesterday)....isnt there danger that a lot bigger guys (then Roger and Jihan) could do a lot more damage to fall of bitcoin (Hedge Funds), by rolling down bitcoin to buy it cheap

For those that don't feel like watching the video - Oldie but goodie.

---

Perhaps one of the most interesting and colourful words in the English language today is the word "fuck". It is the one magical word which, just by its sound, can describe pain, pleasure, love, and hate.
In language, "fuck" falls into many grammatical categories. It can be used as a verb, both transitive (John fucked Mary) and intransitive (Mary was fucked by John). It can be an action verb (John really gives a fuck), a passive verb (Mary really doesn't give a fuck), an adverb (Mary is fucking interested in John), or as a noun (Mary is a terrific fuck).

It can also be used as an adjective (Mary is fucking beautiful) or an interjection (Fuck! I'm late for my date with Mary). It can even be used as a conjunction (Mary is easy, fuck she's also stupid). As you can see, there are very few words with the overall versatility of the word "fuck"..

Aside from its sexual connotations, this incredible word can be used to describe many situations:

From your perspective there is very little difference from people purchasing Bitcoin or altcoins on an exchange. Do you dislike exchanges as well?

What point are you trying to make ? Any reasonable person is going to move their exchange-purchased coins to their own wallets for HODLing unless they are trading.

Only times are when you can't easily replace the bitcoin right away, like liquidating for a big purchase or big down payment on something. Or you have to live off of it. That stings. And it should sting a little. It makes you a better money manager and saver.

Speaking of which, meeting with our money manager dude in May to discuss our finances, investments, and how I can use my existing BTC to allow for early retirement in late 2018. Partner will continue to work for a few more years.

I'm torn on how to divest my BTC for this early retirement purpose. My partner is strongly suggesting I divest several millions in one chunk towards institutional investing - guaranteeing I have the cash on hand until I can draw down on retirement funds at age 65.

I'm thinking it may be more wise to sell "smaller chunks" of BTC to last me a year-at-a-time instead - owing to the increasing value of BTC/USD.

Will figure something out.

...if you have a lot of time vested into some kind of JOB, and you don't necessarily want to leave that money on the table - so in that regard, if the timeline (of suffering in the JOB) is rather short, then it could make sense to be allow that to play out in order to be able to extract some value from that JOB. 

You've sort of hit the nail on the head here. I'm still learning some valuable skills in my JOB that I will be able to apply when "I retire and choose to work on passion projects". Still have have considerable stock vesting over the next little while, and don't want to walk away from that amount of money.

When you put things in the context of "problems of the 1%", it really does make me feel a bit embarrassed and uncomfortable - but I appreciate being able to have honest dialog with you dudes.

My strategy for the short term is to acquire as much fiat as possible, invest it, and maximize the time I don't touch my BTC stash. Not ready to say "Fuck You" just yet.

Good question, actually. Don't have an answer for you :| To my understanding, there is only a tax obligation upon any realized profit or loss, but what do I know.

Waiting over a week now. I wouldn't dare move that volume of coin onto an exchange, in one go. Oh well.

Thought about sending them an email to the effect of "Dudes. You are seriously harshing my retirement plans. What more can I do, in addition to the colonoscopies you have performed on me already, to get verified for that level. If $6M is too much, can I do $3M if it's easier ? Please. Take my money."

About the "colonoscopies"... what sort of documents do they force you to provide?

It got reduced to "hold up this document in one hand, clearly visible, with a piece of paper, with this written text on it in the other hand".

This rally has exposed, to me, the utter state of shambles the "major Bitcoin exchanges" are in for handling a level of action over $1M USD for personal accounts.

Talk about 0.1%'er problems, huh ?

Frankly, I'm really upset with how long it's taking me to get acknowledgements that it's "safe" for me to proceed at the level of play I'm looking for, at the various exchanges I'm "validated" at.

So Cramer just admitted on cnbc that Bitcoin supply was a problem. Because it forces market makers to push the market as high as possible to "shake out more coins". But that's not happening. People aren't taking profits like they expected. He's worried that they'll have to push the Bitcoin market cap to $1T first before they start to see more supply hit the exchanges.
This is fkn hilarious. They can't just call up someone and whip up more stock shares (like they do when other equities launch!). He basically just revealed what everyone has been suspecting for a long time now, that the U.S. stock market is a complete fraud that only enriches the wealthy elites.

What would the effect be of me placing a sell wall of 1000 @ $20,000 ? I'm guessing zero effect ?

Would I be better off gaming 1000 @ $17,500 ? Would placing/pulling 1000 walls @ $17,000 cause jitters ?

Wondering how I can have some fun with this wall on GDAX. I'm a little bit bored this morning.

I should really go get a coffee into my system...

Uhh... I'm pretty sure that spoofing is considered in violation of GDAX's trading rules. If you are discovered, your account will likely be frozen.

... and there it is. Thanks.

Meta.

Brother. You have no idea how much I'm salivating right now.

That triggers memories of a time when I was younger, more irresponsible, naive, open to experimentation, and carefree.

Every once in awhile, I see certain imagery, and it starts a cascade of craving. This is one of those times.

Haven't touched the stuff in over 20 years. Quit smoking cigarettes a bit over 18 years now too. Beer is my only real vice now.

The pull back to those substances is absolutely, insidiously overwhelming, at times, and I thank The Lord everyday for giving me the strength and resolve, to resist the temptation returning back to self-destructive ways.

My entire retirement fiat stash until I turn 65 is being funded by this Litecoin pump. Just sold off another $500k chunk last night. ~$1.2M cashed out so far this month. All long-term gains tax rate being paid @ 23.8% to the IRS.

Getting to keep all my BTC until 2020.

Already talked to my advisors and they've created a good plan for me to draw down $xxxk per year over the next decade or so.

Will be starting to move money into the investments in the early New Year ahead of retiring End of Q1 2018. Want to make sure all the money is already working for me a month prior to officially retiring.

Me: (not bothering to look backwards) "It's probably a hideously green Lambo. I don't think Ferrari or Porsche allows such horrendous colors..."

All miners can mine whatever they want but it should not be at the cost of the quality of the Bitcoin network.

It's more important, than ever, that we have reasonable consumer-based home-miners available again.

Bitfury has completely dropped the ball on this, leading to Bitmains current dominance over SHA256 mining.

But then, I guess when you have money printing machines, an entirely different - selfish - mindset begins to take hold and spreads it's insidious roots.

Things have changed since tribal times, and it may be that there has been a mixing of genetics that are workable in post-agricultural societies that were not in tribal ones. I see it in my own family as well, people with a mix of r and K traits. And of course, there is the matter of environmental and cultural incentives.

While I agree that homosexuality is generally classified as an r trait - in terms of failing to pass on your genetics - I will agree with your point about humans-as-organisms are starting to blend more r/K traits to become hybridized.

Having said that, to blanket-equivocate homosexuality as an r trait, overlooks the societal contributions K-assumed-as-r homosexuals contribute to the overall global market/economy.

I think for bitcoin to grow and the price to grow past 20k the scalability issue need to be fixed. Fees of 700+ sat/B is unsustainable. I don't think that increasing the block size like BCH did is the solution but a hard look at scalability is needed.
Do you think that halving the block size is a solution then?

It took me a decade or so before my palate got refined enough to enjoy and recognize the subtleties.

EDIT: Visiting Napa wineries, taking tours, joining their clubs, attending events, speaking to all the various individual vintners. There is a lot to learn, and you almost need your hand held through the process to fully learn about wine.

It really is a hoity-toity sorta thing. Kinda embarrassing in a way, but, what you gonna do ?

Wine mostly on weekends. More of a beer dude during the week. Tried to get into Scotch, but I just can't get over the bitterness and harshness of it. Not my thing, unfortunately.

I did go through a savage tequila phase in my younger years, and haven't touched the stuff in over 25 years. Won't do anything with tequila in it. Makes me unbelievably nauseous nowadays.

Hubris ? How do you figure ? You poke your snotty little nose into a Bitcoin speculation thread with some snarky comment that's been discussed, ad-nauseum, and expect people to listen to what you have to say ?

It was no joke, I actually did the calculation:

Current Bitcoin price: $15.000
Reasonable Average Lambo Price: $300.000

So for 1 BTC to be worth $300.000 we would need a 20x

If you have a somewhat fragmented wallet you can end with a $100 fee right now for "premium delivery". Note: You are a Lambo purchaser, so you don't want to look cheap, you go for premium of course.

$100*20x=$2000

Well, I have seen good condition second hand Fiats for less. So, there you go, 1 Fiat fee for a 1 Lambo purchase.

P.S.: Some figures slightly rounded for easy of comprehension. Some additional factors that could worsen or alleviate network congestion not taken into consideration. No animals were harmed during the making of the calculations. This is not investment advice.

And let’s be clear, over 95% of my portfolio is hodl.   This is just fun.  It is a challenge to myself to see if I can beat buy and hold ROI over an extended period.  And I have no confidence in my ability to actually pull it off.

 I've often thought about playing with some "house money" daytarding, but then the whole short-term tax bullshit starts coming into play with the IRS, and after exchange fees and whatnot, I've just told myself to "Shut Up and HODL. It's not worth the aggravation." (Any BTC that I'm selling off right now is taxed as long-term gains.)

 And I must admit, part of me is a bit jealous that you have the time to daytard "for fun".

 If it wasn't for my retirement plans that I've set in motion, I might be convinced to play with 10 BTC 'fo shiggles, on some exchanges, but that shit be too stressful, yo.

 Full disclosure: I'm strongly considering doing the whole arbitrage thing with running a well-funded LN node when the time comes.

They ALSO just railed on how bad BCash is due to 2 people controlling it, Ver, etc.  Stated "one or both of them are even an anarchist" and that it is "slipping in market share" to Bitcoin due to that.

Maybe all the trolling on Twitter finally got CNBC to see the light. Shit was pretty savage on their Twitter during the Roger Ver interview bullshit.

Has there been any news that is driving this XRP rally ?

I've got a really bad feeling it's pure emotional, FOMO-driven "investing", and shit gon' come crashin' down, cuz da' roof be on fiya, yo !

Have been keeping up on some San Francisco tech-based discussion forums, and all the "cool kids" (20-30 somethings) are currently going nuts over XRP.

It is inexplicable to me.

I caught wind that there was more and more interest growing with the "Silicon Valley Kids'" growing interest earlier in December, when "one of those types" messaged me out of the blue, asking my opinion on XRP, as they knew I was into Bitcoin. I responded I honestly don't know much, other than it's centralized. This is back when it was riding up near $0.40 USD.

So yeah, anecdotally, I know a portion of the XRP fiat inflow is coming from Silicon Valley types that were also heavily into mETH.

Also, boy did I quit a bad time to quit drinking. Figure if I'm retiring end of Q1, I want to be stone-sober and clear-headed when I finally make the decision to resign from ((( them ))). Quit drinking this past Monday. Easier than I thought, to be honest.

It's less stressful, possibly overpaying on quarterly taxes, than needing to stress about the prospect of a FUCKING MASSIVE bill due on April 15th if you didn't play by the rules.

Trust me. Having to deal with a FUCKING MASSIVE payment on April 15th is much more painful than making "very healthy" payments, quarterly, to the IRS.

It drives my partner crazy - that I round up to the nearest quarter-thousand when it comes to paying taxes - but I've been on the other side of owing FUCKING MASSIVE back taxes, and that's not something I ever want to deal with again in my lifetime.

Can't you hear it ? Off in the distance ? It's a huge sucking sound heading our way.

Money is about to be sucked out of alts and back into Bitcoin.

I would recommend strapping in, like Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton did in "Twister".

See, the funny thing is that it is you yammering apes that keep wanting to make it about Ver And Wu. We Bitcoin Cash advocates, advocate for the philosophy and technology. All y'all gots in your back pocket is dragging these guys' names through the mud. Meanwhile, Bitcoin Cash keeps soldiering on.
To quote you're own dumb line.... I chortled.
And if ya'll really cared about technology, you'd stop stealing code from Core and try inventing something new for once. But oh yeah I forgot, ya'll got a BCash dev team that is intellectually bankrupt.

Care to elaborate?

You've written off SegWit before it's been given a fair shake. That's just silly seeing as how it's not even fully implemented yet across a variety of services.

Core doesn't even support it in the GUI yet for the love of all that is good-and-holy.

I bet a year from now, we will both look back at this post and have a good chuckle, owing to the improved state of Bitcoin at that time.

So your answer is not a practical one or utilitarian one, it is simply that bitcoin has had more transactional history and BCash stole that history and so that makes Bcash better than other altcoins? Seriously?

Makes no sense to me either.

I'm curious, though. Do these BCash folks pull code updates from Bitcoin Core or Bitcoin Segwit ?

It’s a hardware issue. Software can’t fix hardware issues.   It’s also overblown if you are already following good security procedures like a paranoid holder.

Can be fixed with performance hits to the OS.

After a few moments (... I tend to ramble on...) I was able to finally sum it up as "A bunch of weak hands got flushed and a bunch of stupid people panic SODL'd because CMC changed stuff, making it look like the prices of shitcoins crashed", to which, he shrugged, and got back to playing Candy Crush on his iPhone.

...Bob seems to be in the middle of making his plans regarding exactly what he is thinking about doing, and so he is providing us with a kind of blow by blow account of his decision-making process, which seems to be an attempt to sell upon BTC price rises, rather than selling during a period in which the BTC price had just dipped or could be in the process of further dips.

Pretty much this. I know I'm planning on selling xx% of my stash to retire, but on my terms and hopefully when it's on a high. I'm not going to sell in a bear market as I've been bullish long - Not going to get my coins cheap, damnit !

If the price doesn't recover to a place that I'm comfortable selling at, I wait another quarter. Not ideal, but I've resigned myself to waiting till Q2 if needed.

I've told myself that "As long as I'm left with $10M USD worth of BTC, after I sell off enough to fund my retirement for the next 20 years, I'll be happy."

Happy is a relative term though. At these prices, I'm technically "happy... enough..." I would like to sell off my BTC feeling "very happy" if you know what I mean.

I should probably just shut up until after I've executed my plans, and pray it's still in the cards for end of Q1.

Don't like this action around $14k territory. Makes me nervous.

No shit, all this volatility is really starting to stress me out.

I'll be happy when I'm "out" and have the portfolio set up and working for me.

The BTC I'm left sitting with will hopefully appreciate nicely over the next 10 years or so.

...I think that if your goal was to make an interim cashing out of BTC around the value of 60 BTC at $17k, then you could have started cashing out in 10BTC increments and met the same result with an incrementalism something like this:  1)10 BTC at $14,500, 10 BTC at $15,500, 10 BTC at $16,500, 10 BTC at $17,500, 10 BTC at $18,500, and 10 BTC at $19,500...

Hindsight is a real bitch, huh ?  Embarrassed

EDIT: Seeing BTC sink below $14k breaks my heart. I'm HODLing, and mentally preparing myself to work another quarter, aiming to exit the workforce in mid-late Q2. At least taking a wait-and-see approach and see how the market is like end of March. I waited too long and got greedy. Now I'm all despondent and stuff. Sheeit.

Seriously? You were talking about cashing out 1M @ 10K?  That was only 2 months ago. Put a your 60 on the block and stop it already.

I cashed out a bit North of $1M in LTC instead when it hit $300 and decided to HODL the BTC. Put that fiat towards a different set of investments, independent of the "retirement plan" for the next 20 years that I'm looking to put into place soon.

Was hoping for BTC to have recovered more. In retrospect, I recognize I'm getting greedy (don't like it), but seeing what prices BTC have achieved makes it so much more difficult to part with them at their current, lower USD price.

$10k happened, and the momentum kept going. Chose to ride the wave.

My gut tells me we're heading for an upwards correction, but I've quit drinking and on a fasting diet, so my gut bacteria is all sorts of FUBAR right now.

Makin' me all antsy and stuff. I don't like it.

I see we're back above $14k now, but still, the stress is starting to get to the point where I'm getting anxiety-related stomach cramps just writing this post. Or maybe it's hunger pains. Not sure.

Sheeit.

Honestly, altcoins are the way to go now. I'll buy back BTC later, but it is dying a slow death for now.

Slow death ? With increasing SegWit adoption, and LN imminently launching on MainNet, the future is looking pretty bright.

Bob, do you have that country song ready yet? Festival planning is in Phase 2.

Chatted with my partner this morning. Lowering my exit targets.  Don't want to say any more than that for fear of jinxing things. I still don't feel the time is right yet, but "very soon".

He brought up the same point as IcyGreen - "Didn't you say you were going to dump $1M @ $10k USD/BTC ?"

I am filled with shame for allowing my greed to get the better of me. It's... emasculating... being scolded by a power-bottom, damnit.

Either way, will still end up HODLing a very respectable sum of BTC when all is said-and-done.

How does it go?  The C4S?

More power than I would need. 420hp AWD, w/rear-axle steering. Have to keep it under 4.5k RPM for the first couple thousand miles - Not a problem in this weather.

Not as fast as the 2014 Turbo S, but the convertible makes the 2018 C4S Cab oh so sexy.

Driving it home in the snow kinda sucked, but what are you going to do ? Cleaned her up in the garage once I got home and will have more fun with her in the spring.

Random Anecdote - 1%'er Edition: Recently wired $500k from an exchange from the sale I did @ $14.5k to one of my financial institutions, and ran into a bit of a snag.

I was looking to wire that $500k to another financial institution that is setting up my retirement package/plan.

Turns out the financial institution that I wired the funds to initially, only allows $100k wire transfers out, per day, online.

"Sheeit."

So I type up a nice pleasant message to customer service, and CC my account manager, and am all like "Howdy folks. I'm preparing for retirement, and going to be moving a lot of money around ahead of that. Can I have my transfer limits increased to $1M per day ?"

Few hours later, I get back a really freaking super chill and nice response from customer service essentially saying "Hey Bob. First off thanks for being such a great customer for such a long time and trusting us with your fiatcoin. We looked over your account, and yeah bro, $100k is the limit for online stuff. You can walk into any branch and have them do the full wire transfer for you in one go. We just can't do that shit online for security, and stuff, yo."

Duh.

I'll visit the branch on Tuesday and have 'em just wire out the full amount to my other institution.

Banking is such a silly thing.

Luke Jr in a nutshell.

He's courting IRS disaster with this move. He owes USD tax on the fiat amount BTC is worth at the moment he gains control of the coins. The cost-basis of the donator coins is completely and utterly irrelevant.

Doesn't sound scary to me. Slightly displeasing, but not scary.

You know, folks... It's days like this, where you look at the insanity of the crypto markets, and if you're a seasoned HODLer like myself, all you can do is laugh and go about your day.

With that, I'm gonna go bundle-up, hop on a horse, ride around some beautiful Montana countryside amongst my livestock, and see if I can't find me a coyote or two to plink at.

Oh my. Just got an email from one of my old "hot-shot-investor-type" acquaintances that is telling me he is thinking about shorting BTC.

At sub $10k.

My partner is literally facepalming himself right now.

It's real quiet out here in the wilderness, by the way. No coyote sightings yet.

FWIW, I'm HODLing until at least next week. Still on track for end of Q1 retirement. Resolving some banking and exchange issues with making sure wire transfers are cleanly hitting the target account (... have I mentioned how silly the entire banking system is ?)

Still in the process of moving off the first large chunk of fiatcoin off the exchange, and don't want to load up any more until the USD balance reads $0. Over half-way there at this point.

Mentally "OK" with selling the next chunk @ $12.5k USD/BTC, but my gut tells me we're going to head above that by the time I'm ready to cash out again, sometime mid next week.

EDIT: a word

What's your retirement strategy in regards to balancing fiat and bitcoin?

Cashing out $4M total USD - $3M for the retirement fund to get me through the next decade or so until I start getting access to my "older-gentleman" retirement funds. $1M to tax, approximately.

Sitting on the rest of my Bitcorn until at least 2020. Maybe buy an island then...

What banking issues do you get when moving huge amounts of money from an exchange to a bank account?

To be honest, it's mostly user error on my part by not providing the proper routing numbers and having the names match up to how they appear on the accounts.

Can't do a wire transfer to an ACH account (without applying for access), was the one that I initially screwed up. No problems doing wire transfers to my brokerage accounts, however.

If you feel an evil sort of glee at the slip-ups of another, are you a bad person? Well, van Dijk says that just about all of us experience schadenfreude at some point in our lives.

"We know that it's very good to feel empathy and sympathy for people, so if you feel schadenfreude without any sympathy or compassion for that other person," that would not be good, van Dijk said. "Our society thrives on compassion and empathy."

Did you actually buy some back in the 9's Bob?  That is like gravy money for ya. LOL  Who the heck needs to cash out when you can make a killing off people panic selling.

TBH, I can't wait for the next round of panic in late 2018, when I'm fully retired, and can "play the markets" with wild abandon, knowing my retirement has been secured.

Looking forward to a lot of lulz at the expense of panic sellers.

Good thing I pay my accounting firm so well to deal with the tax headaches, and making sure I'm above-board with the IRS.

BTW, Gemini support is terrible. Absolutely awful. I apologize for being blunt, but I've been working through issues cashing out $1M USD from a sale back above $14k, and still have not received a single freaking response from customer service.

Their system for getting verified is a bit convoluted - Wire in money from your financial institution, and, in theory, that sets up a two-way channel for them to initiate wires back to you.

Well, this works great for my primary financial institution, but not for the institution that is handling my retirement portfolio.

Long-story-short, I'm needing to wire funds out of Gemini into Financial Institution A, and then walk into Institution A and say "Greetings folks. I would like to make a Wire Transfer to Institution B. Here is my account information."... wait a moment while they pull up my account, sigh to myself as their eyes bug out and raise a curious eyebrow towards me, look further into my account history, and say "Yessir Mister Lawblaw. We'll get right on that. Would you like covfefe while you wait ? We'll need the manager to sign off on this..."

Coinbase has better support, for the love of God.

Coinbase at least allows me to ACH direct into Institution B. I feel dirty supporting Coinbase tho.

All the exchanges are shit.

Run two of their NAS' in my house and they are fucking bulletproof. Rebuilt/expanded their original volumes a couple times now as my needs grew, with minor issues (worst case was I had to ssh into a box, and manually shutdown services before fscking the main volume, to resolve issues that prevented me from further expanding).

I'm sure they have a "premade" solution that will be fit for purpose.

$1M walls are a drop in the bucket. Bots don't give a shit.

You know... I was about to try to make a funny post to do with Matadors - holding up a red cloth, waving "ˇOlé!" - and then I see all these poor bulls slowly being killed by as they are pin-cushioned to death, slowly bleeding out.

The way beef cattle are put down is more humane than that - a quick, painless death by pneumatic bolt through the brain, before they are slaughtered. They go out like a light when done properly (Pro's don't miss)

Now I'm sad having seen the way those bulls slowly die.

Can i ask? What is the best trading site now for bitcoin ? Btc -usdt?  Thanks .

If you are in the US, I recommend Gemini. Their support is complete and utter shit, but it's the simplest exchange I've found for wiring in/out money, once your accounts are properly linked and jumped through their AML/KYC hoops.

Coinbase is an even worse shit-show right now.

My partner applied for a limit increase last week, and got an email last night saying;

"Hi, Rick Lawblaw. Unfortunately we're not able to increase your Coinbase limits at this time, but you're welcome to try again in the future. In the meantime, please keep in mind that your limits may automatically increase as you build up a purchase history with us."

The dude is worth more than me in pure fiat right now, and they are giving him the runaround.

What amazing bullshit.

He's off on business overseas at the moment, and really pissed off about it. Is going to wire in money to Gemini when he gets back next week.

The nice thing with Gemini is, once you've wired in whatever amount of fiat you've chosen, you're essentially setting your own trading limits, depending on your risk aversion profile.

EDIT: Whoops. You said BTC/USDT. No idea, brother.

Bitcoin is on the move!

Come oooonnn $12.5k !!!

Oh, so about the retirement plan that is being executed for me, I emailed the gentlemen managing my account at one of my financial institutions, and sort of sheepishly asked them "Greetings folks. I have a shit-ton of fiatcoin sitting in my bank account as we prepare for 'the plan'. Haven't ever sat on this much cash at once before and kinda feel out of my league. What do you recommend short-term ?" and dudes responded with "Well, option a, option b, option c... or we could just get the account started on your portfolio with the funds you have available, get the ball rolling, and add to the account over the next 30 days."

Didn't even know that was an option ! Starting the fund earlier and adding to it over the next 30 days.

Waiting for my partner to get back from his trip, and we'll start the ball rolling next week, ahead of schedule.

With any luck, my $12.5k sell order is executed by Monday, and I'll be in amazing shape, ahead of my March 1st target.

I gotta be honest, though. This is really starting to stress me out. Having trouble concentrating on work lately.

Will be relieved when I'm finally "out".

I should probably consider taking one for the team and "dump" some "cheap-coins" if/when it goes back above $11.5k, tho... Play it "safe".

I'm looking to be retired by March 1st, 2018. The price of Bitcoin figures directly into that strategy.

All the BCH went to paying off the balance on our mortgage, buying a new SUV, and the rest went to the IRS.

Have not touched the other forks, and not likely to until it's considered long-term gains.

Gut check says this is a nice coiling going on right now. Hoping to make another move by Monday/Tues at this rate, ahead of a Wednesday meeting with my financial people, to sign paperwork getting the retirement plan started, ahead of schedule.

I'm starting to wrestle with introspective issues now, like, "How do I break it to my employer that I'm leaving, without nuking bridges ?"

Social politics suck.

I love you guys (no homo).

Thanks for being so chill and playfully understanding while I share and "struggle" with these first world problems on the WO thread.

Looking forward to many more years of posts about watching Bitcoin reach astronomical valuations, while aiming to run a "well respected and secured" LN node, and seeing how that works out for increasing my Bitcoin holdings into the future. I thought about naming it something obvious like "BobLawblawsHouseOfPants", but figure that's just asking for trouble.

May just try the whole daytarding thing.

I did want to urge you to not hook your channels up to the major nodes forming up; sleepyarc, spock, #reckless, etc but to small nodes.  If it is truly going to be a mesh and not a hub and spoke it is up to all of us to manifest it that way.

It seems you are a bit more up on LN things than I am. I heard about an "autopilot" mode. I figure that's good enough to start ?

Why don't you ease into retirement?  Cut back your work-week gradually and in that way you can possibly ameliorate your resignation as well as acclimatize to the retired life.  Training your replacement might help with employer relations... even the offer of this when you tender your resignation would be positive even if they don't accept.

I don't think my employer would be too amenable on that. I'll see how things play out.

Don't want to support Bitmain.

I’m glad Bob isn’t still waiting for 12.5k.
And here I am waiting for the market to take me out of my position at $11,350.  

Yeah, glad I dumped a batch @ $11.5k - Really took a lot of stress/pressure off. The anxiety-related stomach cramps were getting to be awful. Expecting things to pick up with BTC prices towards the latter half of February after Q1 bonuses hit.

Looking to dump my last two retirement-fund batches before end of March, then HODL the rest of the stash until after the 2020 halvening, at the very least, and re-evaluate the state of things.

Picked up my partner at the airport the other day, and told him about Loaded moving 40k BTC to a SegWit address. The dude was just shellshocked for a solid minute, muttering "Wow. Forty-Thousand Bee Tee See ! Day-um !"

Loaded indeed !

I need to recognize and thank those folks in this thread that pushed me towards liquidating a portion of my holdings - when I did - for the purpose of early-funding my early-retirement portfolio.

I would likely be a mess right now if I did not heed your folks' advice.

The block I sold @ $11.5k I totally owe to my partner, tho. Touched base while he was between a connecting flight back home, and encouraged me with "Don't get greedy ! Sell @ $11.5k instead of waiting for $12k or $12.5k"

Gives me a very nice cushion to practically hibernate for the entire month of February, where I expect things to pick up the closer we get to March.

HODL on, HODLers. We're heading into very choppy waters today by the looks of it.

On a related note, got to bed about 4am after a late night hacking with my new bitcoind server. Got it up and running last night, and ports properly forwarded from the firewall, and sitting at about 111 connections now since the new box went online.

Had a whole mess of issues between the Lenovo Hardware RAID shit, and Linux Software RAID having issues booting off a RAID volume (hardware or mdadm created - no dice on either)

Ended up just doing 1 drive for the system, and 3 drives as an md RAID5 for the bitcoin and lnd shit.

This is why healthcare needs to be run by non-profit charitable organizations. Yes, such organizations have their problems too. However, it makes absolutely no sense to try and profit off the sick and the dying. Getting the government involved just adds a bunch of bureaucratic red tape.

My point is, I've come to appreciate the system in the US if you can afford insurance.

I went from a severe fracture, to seeing one of the top specialists in the area within 24 hours, to surgery (5 titanium screws used to mend the break) 72 hours later.

The ER experience was just a fucking terrible joke. Took forever to get me in, get painkillers in my system, and ER doctor dude was like "Here, wear this sling for a week for the swelling to go down, and we'll do surgery in about 7 days."

"FUCK THAT SHIT!" I says to myself. "I WANT TO DEAL WITH THIS SHIT NOW !!!"

Called my main GP, said "Who's the best bone fracture guy you know ?", gave me his number, I took matters into my own hands, and was on the mend fast.

I can't imagine how that scenario would have played out under the Canadian Medical system.

When the gem finally appears - resting on his boot - people will be momentarily dazzled. It will then get kicked up in the air, and then all unholy hell is going to break out, and then God-only-knows where we end up.

I'm guessing somewhere back around $10k by end of February, but that's taking a wild guess.

Don't like the circumstances under which I'm leaving, but nothing I can do about it. My hand is being forced. (They want things their way, I want things my way, no way to meet in the middle...)

I'm likely to be throwing a small wrench into the works with my resignation, but I just can't deal with my manager and constant reorgs anymore.

End of an era approaching for me.

Kinda depressed, and then I think "Why you so depressed dude ? You're fucking retiring early, dawg ! Going to live the dream and so-on-and-so-forth. Get a fucking grip."

Will be nice to step away and focus on me for the rest of my unnatural life.

I still will not be inclined to feel any semblance of meaningful relief regarding the bottom is in until prices get back securely above $10k.

Not sure I should be admitting this, but I'm thinking of selling another batch, for tax liabilities, as soon as it recovers back to $10k.

Whatever is left after taxes, is what I live on until the fund starts kicking in next year.

Play it safe, sorta thing. That slide from $14.5k to $11.5k took a year off my life over the stress/timing for retirement funding.

OT: I can't imagine what it must be like; what sort of life must you have led, that placed you on this path of complete and utter immobility due to obscene caloric over-indulgence.

The empathetic part of me wants to chalk it up to mental illness, but the practical part of me starts down a spiral of nihilism, and recognizing these people for being the poor-impulse-control dregs of society, that would do civilization a favor if they just immediately keeled over due to cardiac-related complications.

"Ain't nobody gonna get rich running a node"

Was mentioning to my partner this morning, "I'm not sure this project is worth it"

The tech is kinda neato, tho, I guess.

I think I'm technically losing BTC right now fucking around with Lightning.

When you say it is not worth it, I think you mean that you don't see it is something that it is going to have an interesting ROI for you as an intermediary node... but you mean now, medium term or also in the future?

There seems to be a cost to fund a channel, and it appears that it's not worth it, just funding channels willy-nilly right now.

eg: I'll fund a channel with 1,000,000 SAT.

When the channel closes, for whatever reason, listfunds reveals I have a balance of 999,085 on my end.

The nodes are there to facilitate a payment of an invoice. You don't directly utilize them, per se.

AFAIK, if you want to send a payment for n sat from Sender A to Receiver B, it needs to get routed through nodes with sufficient funding.

It's sort of like TOR, but for small Bitcorn transactions.

Already funded my retirement portfolio in early January before BTC dropped below $11.5k. I now have the luxury of waiting for the next month for things to go higher before I sell to cover tax liabilities.

The next batch for Q1 tax will likely be the last batch I sell before 2020... when I plan to buy Ireland.

Me too. I fail to see the "different strokes" part.

I get the "sexually liberated" shit, but in the context of a traditional, monogamous relationship, cuckoldry is something generally frowned upon, and usually a deal-breaker for any bonded couple.

For those people that are comfortable with an open relationship - good for them. All the more power to them.

I'm saying, cuckoldry is not traditional, or normal behavior, that lends itself towards building a strong nuclear family unit.

It's a trust-breaking "kink" to "normies".

Speaking of LN, hit my first major snag with running c-lightning pulls off github. Saw some other dude already reported the problem, but tried to upgrade to a new version just now, and got a db upgrade failure condition.

Have quite a few channels open on my node. Going to be a huge pain to close all the channels, wait for the fund timeout locks to expire, move the funds back out to bitcoind, blow away ~/.lightning and start with a fresh install.

Setting my next sell target for $12k. Don't see the volume/pressure yet to move coins to an exchange, but hoping that changes in the next 72 hours.

Also, after all is said and done with my testing of a lightning network node, after these last few outstanding channels are closed, and funds returned to my Bitcoin wallet, I'm guessing I've lost about 45% of the Bitcorns I used to test on Mainnet with, due to fees with opening/closing channels. (Less than 0.2 BTC total loss)

Going to wait until c-lightning hits v0.6 before resuming testing.

I've learned a lot about how to operate a node, and get a good sense of the game theory for funding channels, but my gut is telling me we're at least six months away from Lightning starting to become somewhat stable.

It's really neat tech, but it's essentially alpha-state software right now.

Liking this upward momentum I'm seeing. Right on schedule.

Looks like I'll be loading up some coins onto the exchanges tomorrow morning when I wake up for possibly one last round for 2018.

If it does end up spiking up to $40k USD/BTC this year, I'll probably sell another batch, and then put everything into cold storage for 2020 and beyond, minus a couple BTC that I have loaded up onto my LN node for playtime.

I think it's moon-time, soon, gentlemen.

Everything is aligning.

Buckle up, buckaroos.

I'm not sure what turdboy is posting about, as I have him on ignore, but if you are suggesting we give up our AR-15's, you are welcome to come and try taking it away from the citizenry.

I can't imagine that situation working out well for everyone involved.

Planet: Arrakis

B'awb, a Fremen scout wakes in the early morning. Empties his bladder into the "Pool of Unlife" and wipes away a thin layer of melange. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.

Grabbing his optics and thumper, he makes his way to the surface to assess the weather and state of the wasteland.

He sniffs the air, glances over the wide swath of land and brings the optics up to his eyes.

Lighting strikes hundreds of kilometers off in the distance. A sandstorm grows beyond it.

Reluctantly sighing, the scout walks a kilometer away from the enclave entrance, places the thumper, turns it on, and begins the trek back to the rest of the clan.

Half an hour later, as he washes up, his life partner, Gin'jr Riq reaches around him and gently kisses B'awb on the neck. "Good morning, lovely", Riq quietly whispers into B'awbs ear. "How are things looking in the wastelands this morning ?"

B'awb sighs, puts down his mastication cleanser, and replies, "Like, we kinda have wormsign. Eventually. Give it a few hours. Let's go back to sleep. That Caladonian beer dun fucked my shit up good last night"

Hate to be Debby Downer here at all but the question has to be asked, does that empty mempool then also mean less pressure from traffic/volume of Bitcoin use.

I honestly don't know how to answer that. All I do know is I'm happy to see the spamming has stopped, transaction fees are the lowest they have been in a long time, and transactions are clearing quite quickly - compared to the insanity of Dec/Jan.

There's less that two full blocks of blockchain data waiting to be processed in mempool, at the time being. 20 minutes will clear out any queued transactions on the blockchain.

Could it be because of the LN testing?

Not likely. This is probably due to Segwit starting to be rolled out more and more.

LN is still a giant experiment at the moment, and I can't really recommend getting involved with it right now, unless you are into masochism.

We'll see how much of a difference LN starts to make once they hit 0.6 (0.5.2 right now)

Related: One of our cats was seeming a bit lethargic after a complex dental procedure, and noticed he was developing a cough over a period of 24 hours.

Took him to the vet the other day, and was diagnosed with pneumonia - likely brought on by all the bacteria let loose from the dental procedure, and the antibiotics we were giving him weren't strong enough apparently.

He's in the vet over the weekend on IV antibiotics to nuke the pneumonia, but I was so proud of the boy when they went check his temperature, rectally.

Dude was having none of it. He was pushing that stuff right out of his butt as soon as it went in. The doctor laughed and said "This cat has the strongest butt muscles I've ever seen !"

No, don't get any ideas, you sickos.

Truth be told, I'm really worried for the dude, and hope he pulls through OK. He's just the floofiest, cutest and lovable black ragdoll ever. Loves to sleep between us at night.

hate the guns, should only own them if trained or necessary

bit hard to ask someone to hand in their guns then.

You need training and class-time for legal concealed in most States, as far as I am aware. Not to mention fingerprinting, and entrance into a national database. Tied to your drivers license usually.

I was out at nice dinner with a couple friends the other night, and was talking to one of my other carrying buddies after noticing that we were seated directly with eye-line to the front door. Our partners backs were facing the door, looking towards the back of the restaurant.

Talk eventually turned to all the anti Second Amendment sentiment floating around right now after the recent shooting in Florida.

Then we were all like...

Broheim: (Notices me eyeballing the fancy restaurant entrance)
Me: "You carrying right now ?"
Broheim: "You know it. .40 S&W"
Me: "Lulz. .45 Kimber @ 4 o'clock on me"
Broheim: "I pity whoever decides to walk through that door trying to start some shit"
Me: "Goddamn I love this country"

I'm fucking retired and couldn't be bothered to read it !!!

(doesn't feel real yet. still dealing with sick cat, who is getting better - recovering from pneumonia, but requires daily vet visits for the week for shots. Picked a perfect time to retire...)

EDIT: Treating pneumonia in cats isn't cheap. Blew $2k on the furry bastard already. Not complaining at all.

rumours that Kraken to lose its banking
can anyone confirm / dispute?

I wouldn't doubt it. My experience trying to extract fiat from Kraken had laughably low limits. Even at their highest verification tiers.

$100k USD, per year.

Needless to say, I extracted the $100k USD, and then converted the rest of the BCH to BTC and moved it to my wallet.

He's recovering very well, thanks ! We caught the pneumonia so quickly, they were not able to definitively diagnose if it was bacterial or aspirate induced (as a result of giving him oral meds).

A set of shots tomorrow, another set of shots on Friday, along with an x-ray, and he should be fully recovered.

"Lead" guitar players are annoying. I hate having to play with more than one guitarist at a time. One good rhythm guitarist is worth more than 100 noisy, self-centered "lead" guitarists with all their goofy effects pedals and total lack of self control.

I'm curious how much of your bad experiences with players, as you have described, boil down to their own fundamental inexperience playing with a band.

As a producer myself, I find I'm brutally harsh on myself when it comes down to final mix - making sure everything ebbs and flows properly across the piece. Making sure no one element overpowers another unless I choose to accent a particular segment.

Shit like this takes at least a decade to hone.

Ugh. This is tragic to hear. Coming from an IT background in a former life, I've learned about having redundancy for redundancy.

That paid off the house. Thanks Roger !

If those Bitcorn forks are still around in 5 years, maybe I'll do something then when it becomes long-term gains, but the tax hit just isn't worth the pain in my scrotum.

Unless you are going to tell me that an AR15 with a bump stock is not the equivalent of an auto?  Stephen Paddock was doing 9 rounds per second with a perfectly legal weapon.  That’s a full auto as far I am concerned.  He had to keep rotating rifles due to heat sink but the point remains.

Not familiar with The GOA.

I disagree with their stance on bump-stocks, and their article entirely. To your point, I would admit they do seem to have a few loose screws.

B'awb
what is that on the horizon?

Planet: Arrakis

B'awb, being summoned by the council, angrily slams down his frosty Caledonian Ale.

"Who the fuck do they think they are, Riq ? Can't a Fremen Scout just retire in peace ?"

"I don't know what to say, B'awb. The council seems to believe you have the gift of foresight. I... think you have the gift of foresight..." as Riq winks slyly at B'awb.

Resigned. B'awb suits up, leaves behind the thumper - not being in any mood to attract worms today - and makes his way to the surface; optics in hand.

Greeted with clear skies, and a soft cooling breeze, B'awb brings the optics to his eyes, and scans the landscape.

Wormsign. It's a small one. Traveling perpendicular to the camp, and posing no threat. B'awb notes this small worm is not burrowing very deep. An uneasy feeling suddenly grips B'awb.

"Could it possibly breach and take a bite at one of the passing Ornithopters hovering around $12k, before retreating back into the sands."

B'awb returns to the cool caves below, grabs a fresh Caledonian Ale, ignites and inhales deeply "The Herb of Life", and begins cross-referencing recent lightning strike nodes.

"So, anything we should worry about B'awb ?" asks Riq, as he nibbles on B'awbs ear.

Weary and uninspired, B'awb replies "No Riq. Let's go back to our chambers and catch up on J'rey Spring'R episodes. I'm going back to bed. If the council asks for me again, tell 'em I've gone fishing or something..."

BobLawblaw and Searing haven't got real jobs, they both retired using their trading mining profits. I don't think that makes them parasites, it makes them the kind of winners we all want to be.

Can't speak for Searing, but I mined 90% of my BTC holdings, before selling my ASICs off in late 2015, for more BTC.

Bought a few small dips with fiat for shits and giggles, and converted a bunch of BCH->BTC when the fork happened to considerably boost my BTC holdings.

I've been HODLing for years. Long term gains taxed at 23.8% using FIFO accounting, muthafuckahs !!!  Cry

Also, looks like the apocalypse got called off.

YAY WEEKEND RALLY ! (?)

EDIT: Adding insult to injury, I'm effectively paying tax twice on Bitcoin. I owed and paid tax on the fiat value of the coin when it was mined, and owe tax again when selling. Cries.

What's FIFO accounting?

First In. First Out.

Selling/paying tax on my oldest Bitcoins first, instead of my most recent Bitcoins.

eg: I have 5 BTC in my stash that are more than 365 days old. I buy Bitcoin #6 on an exchange for $x. If I turned around and sold that BTC for profit using LIFO (last in-first out), I'd be paying short term capital gains of over 35%. Instead, from an accounting perspective, I sell a Bitcoin from my stash that is older than 365 days... in theory.

I am a heavy smoker though. Maybe you will get a nicotine buzz.

random: I quit cold turkey almost 15 years ago. Best decision I've ever made for my life and health. Very empowering to know I had the will to pull through the withdrawal symptoms.

I've smoked absolutely zero cigarettes and exactly one cigar in that time.

How long did the withdrawal symptoms last, and how bad were they?

I was pretty angry and irritable for a solid 6-8 weeks before I started chilling out.

EDIT: First thing I noticed that started coming back was my sense of smell, followed by improved sense of taste a few weeks later. Noticed the change in scent perception around week six.

At least Bitcoin trading doesn't give you increased flatulence, nausea and intestinal cramping (unless you just lost $1 million).

Perspective: Apologies in advance if this comes off as a brag-post, but fuck losing $1M. Your entire perspective changes when you see your portfolio swing $10M in the matter of a couple days.

Learn how to ride those waves for few years of HODLing and <insert Mr Bean on Rollercoaster.gif>

All I can do is sit back and either laugh or shrug. (Please keep in mind my entire stash at this point is "house money", so perhaps my perspective is atypical)

If Bitcoin trading is a serious cause of, no-bullshit real life stress like stomach cramps and other anxiety symptoms, then perhaps that is a sign you may be a bit over exposed.

Nevermind your physical health. That's just fundamentally not financially healthly.

TBH, I'm forcing myself to do three months of absolutely nothing before pursuing passion projects.

I need the decompression time.

Lots of fun stuff on the horizon I'm looking to pursue when the time is right, and the weather turns a bit more pleasant.

I have been hitting the gym more, so I'm happy about that at least.

But in terms of anything remotely resembling creative or "professional" production, I'm out of commission for a little while.

I'm in no hurry to do anything other than work on the house, play with the cats, play video games, drink beer, and catch up on sleep.

And I thought I was being conservative with my 11,000-12,000 price target for march...

I'm with you on that one. I wasn't expecting a moon, but I certainly was not expecting current levels at this point.

I'm not sure "Well, there's still another fifteen days left in March" is much of a consolation at this point. Still really angry with myself, in retrospect, for not selling a chunk at the most recent $11.5k rally last week, but what can you do ?

I may just defer an IRS tax payment for Q1 activity to Q2 and incur a slight penalty, but then I think to myself "What if Bitcorn goes even lower in Q2 ?" and, well, I'm not sure how to reconcile that. Definitely not selling at these prices, and wondering if I should raid some of my other after-tax accounts to cover Q1 tax obligations (but then that creates more problems because of accounting nightmares for those accounts - that I'm not mentally ready to deal with at this point - so... yeah...)

If we recover back to $11.5k before end of the month, that'll be my last sell batch until the next halvening.

Would rather just get everything done and over with in Q1; idea being pay my tax obligations, and the leftover cash will be used as "buffer" for the next two years before my portfolio starts snowballing out in 2019.

 I'm a Red Wine (California Napa Valley Cabernet) aficionado myself, so I know all about pricey bottles of booze.

 I'm thinking about maximizing for most fun.

 It goes without saying I'd probably buy at least 1 bottle of ~$1,000 USD Scotch, as that can likely be spread around nicely, but getting into "expensive spirits" would probably be wasteful.

 I'm not saying buy cheap shit either, but trying to establish a "middle ground".

 Seriously - I'll throw 0.5 BTC for libations towards the $100k party. 0.5 BTC == 0.5 BTC after-all, right ? I'm playing with that much for my Lightning nodes, so it seems fair to "blow the other 0.5 on crazy party shit" - to my mind.

I know you know about r/K, so tell me how this sounds to you.
People either think in an r way or a K way, to varying degrees. When a hard r and a hard K meet, they instinctively recognize one another for what they are, and instantly hate eachother.

So far as I have been able to apply r/K selection theory to my peer group, equating Liberal r to Conservative K, I've unfriended friends and family on social media over their liberal views.

Don't care if I ever cross paths with them at family functions in the future, ever again.

EDIT: I'm a firm 2nd Amendment supporter, and the reee's and tears from my Liberal contacts, in the wake of this recent Florida School shooting, was enough to say "You know what Bob. You're retired. You don't have to deal with any shit you don't want to deal with any more. Fuck 'em".

For reals. I can happily make that commitment while maintaining my anonymity. In theory.

In all seriousness, I think the idea of having a "$100k Party" is a great, but I doubt I would attend for personal reasons (Mostly, I hate meatspace, that it seems like it'd be an OpSec nightmare - Would not feel comfortable partying with people while I'm packing two pistols, for example)

I would need to be "on guard" all evening. We'd need massive security measures to seriously contemplate a party like that.

I agree with the idea of needing to sign a message from a pre-established address, with an arbitrary phrase given at the door, to gain entrance.

Speaking of capitulation, I'm CONSIDERING starting to contemplate selling a batch - if I can - between $7.5-$8k before end of March just to get the tax monkey off my back. Sent an email to my accountant asking what the penalty is on $xM deferred from Q1 to Q2.

Seriously.

Sheeeit.

No proud to admit this.

Also, I've come to recognize everyone doing trade analysis of Bitcoin is full of shit.

I don’t think you have really thought through the consequences of what you are suggesting.

You are probably right.

All I'm suggesting is if someone makes a truly amusing comment or something in the trollbox, fuck sMerit, send him a cheap BTC micropayment for the funny, via LN.

I'm sure the backend setup would be a bit of a nightmare, and getting users onto the network and get channels funded would take some time, but being forward-looking, I bet we see something like this roll out in the next year. Not here, but elsewhere. Maybe.

I was in a taxi last night and caught the end of this song. It went like this: 'I'm in love with the shape of your body'. If you can imagine that

We often listen to the electronic/dance stations on Sirius XM whilst out-and-about, and our jaws drop listening to some of the vapid lyrical content of popular music. I've, tragically, heard the song you are referring to.

Can't wait to start writing music/lyrics late in the summer. Finally settled on a theme and direction for the project and have been dictating notes and memos to Siri while I'm in the shower. Going out into the field to start gathering sample material with contact mics in April.

Keep saying that and we go to $3K for real.

TBH, I'm a bit frustrated with my accountant for taking so long getting back to me on the penalty amount for deferring a Q1 payment to Q2. (I know I can probably calculate this myself, online, but it's not the point...)

I know FYE is their busy-season, but I pay the firm a fair chunk of change to keep me above board.

I don't feel right, selling in this market, and my gut is telling me to push the tax payment to Q2 + late penalty - with the hope that BTC stabilizes above $11k in the next 90 days.

... but then again, my gut is being utterly bombarded with beer and vodka lately, so... yeah.

My accountant just got back to me. It's hell season for him, and dude is flying cross-country dealing with his larger clients.

Delaying a tax payment on $nM from one quarter to the next is negligible. 4% penalty annually (compounded daily so it works out to more than that, actually). The IRS is going to assume I owe 1/4 of $nM of the tax per quarter unless we specify otherwise (which we ultimately will, because I'm strange like that)

tl;dr: 1/4 of a 4% tax payment obligation on $nM, delayed a quarter, is a reasonable penalty in a down crypto market - assuming we don't head even lower in Q2.

Will take my chances and HODL.

As I'm sure you all know, my morning routine involves a complex ritual repeatedly, violently crushing my testicles between two bricks, for about 50 reps, when I get out of bed.

I've grown used to the trauma, and my testicular fortitude is truly world-class.

Having said that, whatever has gone on in the last 48 hours or so, kinda gives me a stinging sensation down there. Not a dull throb that I'm used to.

I think I'm going to need to up my game by following up the brick working out, with bashing my testicles between two heavy woolen socks filled with bees and angry hornets.

I don't think that you should distort the truth of what he actually said, in this instance.
What he said is that "more babys are dying," and that is weird enough, so to change what he is saying into "sausages" actually trivializes the stupid thing that he already said.
The guy is a psycho, and his real words and the way that he said them are proof enough about his current nutjob status.
He said wut? Why??

What do babies dying have to do with cryptocurrency ?!??

I'm so confused right now.

Bob's not worried about penalties. He's putting off paying until next quarter, and paying the penalty. He's hoping bitcoin going back up in price will offset that penalty.

I'm actually considering making at least a 25% payment for the Q1FY18 activity, instead of a 100% payment in Q2FY18.

Still expecting sticker shock from my accountant on what our April 15th FY17 obligations are, but rough mental numbers tell me I have enough cash liquid - in accounts I wouldn't feel bad touching - to deal with at least a 25% payment on my Q1FY18 activities, on top of whatever we're likely to owe for FY17.

Our buttholes have been pretty darned puckered lately, in anticipation of the tax bill.

Less than 10 days to deadline.

Sheeit.

Do you have to make that payment in fiat before the end of the tax year (in less than 10 days)?

Yep. Q1 current year payments due same date as prior FY payment.

From https://www.taxact.com/reference/library-calendar-fytaxpayers

Quote
Fiscal Year Taxpayers
If you use a fiscal year (rather than the calendar year) as your tax year, you should change some of the dates in this calendar. Use the following general guidelines to make these changes.

The 3 months that make up each quarter of a fiscal year may be different from those of each calendar quarter, depending on when the fiscal year begins. Also see Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday.

Individuals
Form 1040. This form is due on the 15th day of the 4th month after the end of your tax year.

Estimated tax payments (Form 1040-ES). Payments are due on the 15th day of the 4th, 6th, and 9th months of your tax year and on the 15th day of the 1st month after your tax year ends.

To answer your question, however, I'm pretty much ready for anything at this point. Bitcorn has been acting real strange over the last 48 hours. Would not be totally surprised to see it drop back down to ~$6,500 USD territory.

Crossing my fingers that we are entering a slow recovery, though.

I'll wield the bricks...sure

The soil here in Texas is much harder than the stuff in Montana. Higher-density bricks here, it seems.

Great workouts in the AM !! At this rate, I'll graduate to small steel plates by end of FY18. Need to work on the upper body strength, though, as steel is much heavier than bricks at the same volume.

Working up to being able to withstand having my balls crushed between two 911's, by end of FY19.

Not sure how I'm ever going to get the upper-body strength to support that exercise, however.

Might just have to build me two hydraulic robots to facilitate that workout, if Bitcorn ever heads north of $100k USD/BTC.

You see, the trick with using two 911's is you have to roll them 90 degrees, and slightly angle them so that the front bumpers ALMOST touch.

It's quite an elaborate hoisting mechanism.

I've given it a lot of thought.

As horrible as the experience might be, it can actually, in select cases, be good for the person as it forces them to confront their problems.
...
However, I could imagine that the tea that shamans brew in their filthy pots in the jungles with all the resulting vomitting and diarrhea could have a very different impact on the person though. Which is also why I'm not particularly interested, although I've had an experience with throwing up on the come up before, which while fucking hilarious, wasn't something I'd need to repeat in that form.

I can't speak to the diarrhea, but I've heard vomiting is often a side-effect of the experience.

I've been fascinated with the idea of taking DMT to experience ego death, but, unfortunately, would very likely suffer from serotonin shock, and die, due to drug interactions with my daily regimen.

I've learned to make peace that I need certain prescribed pharmaceutical products in my system to balance me out. Not sure if I really want to try getting off 'em at my age ("ain't broke, don't fix etc.. right now")

So yeah, random aside I guess. An experience I will not be crossing off my bucket list, in this lifetime.

That, and I have a horrible, HORRIBLE aversion to vomiting.

I don't like discussing stuff like this, mostly for fears of blowing OpSec, but have come to recognize that it's important to openly discuss mental health issues, rather than grow up in a time like I did, where things like that just weren't discussed due to stigma.

One more year of "painful" tax returns with all the BTC selling I've done for retirement purposes this year, but have no concerns with meeting those obligations - especially with making a small estimated payment for Q1FY18.

Pay your estimated quarterly tax, folks. It saves you a lot of butthurt when you file at the end of the year.

It is impossible to make a profit manufacturing items of real quality in this environment.

Not true. Look at high end sports car manufacturers for example. It's arguable quality and bang-for-buck increases as technology improves.

Porsche is doing quite well, for a specific example.

Mind you, we're dealing with niche products here, but I take umbrage with your outlook. You can certainly buy extremely high quality products, although expect to pay premium prices.

Another example. Apple. They are making money hand-over-fist putting out quality hardware.

Part of the reason I retired early. I could not stand working for ((( them )))

I've never seen more hypocrisy or backwards thinking in my entire life before ((( they ))) came into my professional sphere.

((( They ))) are now requiring diversity quotas, and I've heard stories of qualified candidates being rejected for minorities/people of color, with subpar work ethics and technical skills.

Can you imagine being a manager in charge of hiring. Have a white male that checks every single one of your boxes for skills/requirements and has the resume to back it up, but are forced to hire a minority with substandard education and work ethics, straight out of school ?

This is what is happening in Silicon Valley / San Francisco right now.

I would choose a Mac system over a PC system for professional work any day. Only use PC's for gaming now.

The iPhone X, on the other hand, well, I really want to like it, but that fucking retarded front facing camera / 3D scanner section taking a chunk out of the screen real-estate is some of the most intrusive design I've ever seen.

Back to wall observation for a moment, just zoomed out to the last 7 days to see WTF has been going on, and since April 12th, Bitcorn has really been having a tough time figuring out what it wants to do.

Fluctuating between a narrow band @ ~ $7,800 - $8,400 and having a tough time figuring out which direction it wants to break, next.

Kinda boring, but I guess finding stability around $8k isn't a bad thing.

I have a sneaking suspicion most of Q2 is going to be boring AF, with mostly sideways action.

Would love to be wrong, and have it break back above $10k again in the next week or so, but, well, Bitcorn doesn't give a fuck what anyone thinks...

EDIT: Also, WTF man... Voat has been down for a couple hours now.

A small harddrive used up by every node on the blockchain. Would be hard to allocate these resources without the nodes becoming centralized.

I disagree that bitcoind nodes will become increasingly centralized.

HD/SSD:Size/Price ratios are getting better and better every year.

I just set up a 12TB RAID volume to handle bitcoind and c-lightning, and the price was quite reasonable for what the server will be doing.

I expect it to last me several years before I need to start thinking of upgrades again.

...and the counter would be, show me in the original whitepaper where it says use LN or some other equivalent.

My counter is "Don't shift the goalposts, asshole."

It's arguable LN is more "reasonable" for micropayments than the main chain, because you need to lock funds in, before you can do anything, to begin with, so 0-conf doesn't even enter the equation.

LN is at least 3 confirmations, IIRC, for on-chain resolution.

But yeah, I'm with you though - Consolidation around $9,500 for a bit would be nice to see.

In other words, there is no reason that you cannot do both - live well and invest in your own future, and part of the key to that involves both planning and living within your means

Bolded and underlined for emphasis.

This part requires incredible discipline.

There are many stories of people who acquire sudden wealth, and blow it all, leaving them with - for the sake of argument - nothing.

Financial discipline, in my opinion, needs to be instilled and taught at an early age.

Parents play an absolutely massive role in this development.

See that's what I'm talking about. That sounds like a yes vote for a new thread! It seems like there are a surprising number of people here who are interested in yachts/boats.

I think a new Yacht/Boat thread should have a spiritual link to it's fork from the WO thread.

Keepkey has biggest screen and stylish

Hardware wallets terrify me for some reason. Not 100% sold on them yet, being an old crotchety Bitcoin "Core" user from day one. I feel more in control of my encrypted wallet.dat / IT OpSec / interfacing with something I have the option of building from source.

This is one of those cases of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", and I've made considerable efforts to make sure that the systems that touch my encrypted wallets, are secured to the best of my abilities.

It's all about balancing risk / comfort, and I'm not sure the risk is worth it moving my stash to a hardware wallet, given how I've set things up already.

It's necessary. Just a matter of when.

I'm not saying BTC doesn't need to eventually move over to larger blocks, but I support their slower, safer, forward-thinking, incremental approach to things.

BCH is just fucking retards running around in a China Shop, breaking and buying everything in sight, because they have more money than brains.

It's shameful, amateurish behavior, and it's fucking with BTC-proper.

I'm not convinced that segwit was the better choice. In general, doing something in a simple way is better than doing it in a complicated way. But it is what we have now.

SegWit was needed for Layer 2 stuff, and did add effectively another 1MB to the blocksize.

It was win-win for everyone IMO.

The following are a lot of amazing facts of either Israel or the Jewish people. There is no way this includes everything, nor even the most important or for that matter in any particular order.

✡ Judaism is one of the oldest religions in the world.
✡ Judaism is the only religion in the world that has a land that it is attached to and lost and is in the process of regaining it back.
✡ The original language of Judaism is Hebrew, and is still used by Jews today.
✡ Jews have 613 commandments, outlined in the Torah , as opposed to non-Jews 7 .
✡ At the age of 13, Jewish boys become responsible for their own action, and usually hold a ceremony to commemorate their rite of passage from childhood into adulthood, when they become bar mitzvah (for boys) or bat mitzvah (for girls at age 12).
✡ The seventh day of the week is the Sabbath. Jews are commanded to keep the Sabbath as a day of rest, as G-d rested after six days of creating the world.
✡ Gematria is the name of a system of Jewish numerology, assigning a numerical value to letters and is used to demonstrate concepts.
✡ The Sanhedrin, the chief court of law in the ancient Jewish tradition comprised of 70 rabbis.
✡ The Western Wall is a large retaining wall that is left of the second Jewish Temple, built in Jerusalem by King Herod. It is located on the western side of the Temple Mount. Jews gather there daily for prayer and celebration.
✡ In Judaism there are 4 different New Year days; Rosh Hashanah the beginning of creation, Tu B’Shevat for the trees (counting of growth), Passover the beginning of the Jewish people and Elul the year of counting cows.
✡ Medicinal Marijuana is Considered Kosher.
✡ There is a theory that the rulers of the first Feudal state of Eastern Europe, the Khazars, converted en masse to Judaism in the 8th Century

Huh. TIL.

Thanks.

The Lambo thing has become an in-joke that I really wish would go away.
The MSM likes the analogy and association because it paints Bitcoiners as petty and childish asshats.
Lambos are better associated with the BCash and ICO/shitcoin crowd. I mean, Roger and CSW drive them, so....?

You can't 'force' people to consume against their will.

To wit, since I've retired, I've, like, "conspicuously spent" near-zero dollars.

Money is accumulating dust in my checking account.

I made sure that when I finally decided to retire, that I should have acquired any material "big dollar" items that I've desired before then.

Now I'm just enjoying my toys, and working on that whole zen thing, man.

Buying more stuff does not bring me happiness at this stage of my life.

EDIT: Bitcorn's gonna have a rough day, I reckon.

Chocolate Chip Challah Bread

Ingredients

✡ 2 packets active dry yeast (4 1/2 teaspoons)
✡ 1/2 cup sugar, plus a pinch
✡ 7 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
✡ 1 tablespoon salt
✡ 2 large eggs
✡ 1/2 cup vegetable oil, plus more for the bowl
✡ 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Mix the yeast, a pinch of sugar and 1 cup warm water in a small bowl. Set aside while you measure out the other dry ingredients, or until frothy.

Whisk 3 1/2 cups flour, the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and the salt in a large bowl. Pour in the yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon. Add 1 egg, the vegetable oil and 1 cup warm water; stir until combined. Gradually stir in the remaining 3 1/2 cups flour until the dough starts to come together. Mix in the chocolate chips.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a large oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 hour to 1 hour, 30 minutes.

Divide the dough into 3 equal portions. On a floured surface, roll each portion into a ball, then roll each ball into a 1 1/2-to-2-inch-wide strand, about 16 inches long. Lay the strands side by side on a sheet of parchment paper and pinch them together at one end.

Braid the 3 strands: Cross the right strand over the middle strand. Then cross the left strand over the middle strand. Repeat, crossing the right strand over the middle strand, then the left over the middle, until all of the dough is braided. Pinch the dough together at the end.

Slide the loaf (with the parchment paper) onto a baking sheet. Beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, then brush the egg wash all over the loaf. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes.

Sounds delicious. Might just try to make some this weekend. Thanks for the suggestion !

Chocolate Babka

If you’ve ever tried to recreate something you loved when you were growing up in your own kitchen, you know how difficult it can to match your taste memory to the reality of ingredients and step-by-step directions. Sometimes, even when you get the flavor right, it doesn’t feel right, but you hold out for those rare times that everything falls into place.

First, it’s completely over-the-top. The chocolate to bread-like dough ratio is unseemly. It often seemed impossible that they could construct something with even more filling than structure. I rejected all of the recipes that didn’t suggest a mind-boggling amount of chocolate.

Second, the quintessential taste is not just chocolate, no siree: it’s chocolate-cinnamon. Rejecting all the recipes that didn’t play on this combination, the stack of possibilities further thinned.

Finally, the chocolate babka we grew up eating had an extra little something-something–streusel topping with a few chunks that always fell into the twists and folds–something I remember clearly from all the times we’d pick the pieces out, or fight over those with the biggest pebbles. Almost all the recipes I looked at involved no streusel.

For real, people, this nearly ties with those pecan bars as the most fattening thing I have ever made. Two and a quarter pounds of chocolate. One and a quarter pounds of butter. A pound and a half of sugar. The truth is, this recipe made me a nervous wreck. The cost of the ingredients and caloric heft of them aside, it was a tremendous amount of work, a true labor of love, a task not eased by a kitchen with just a single eensy counter.

But I’m not here to complain, because the effort was not for naught. We cut into a single slice hot from the oven Wednesday night, unable to hold off any longer, and were just stunned. It is exactly what we remember. Callebraut chocolate, other top-notch ingredients and no extended wait on a supermarket shelf made it, dare I say, even better.

Chocolate Babka

When shaping the babka, twist dough evenly throughout the length of the roll a full 5 to 6 turns. The babka can be prepared up to step 8 and frozen for up to a month before baking. When ready to bake, remove from freezer; let stand at room temperature for about 5 hours, and bake.

Makes 3 loaves (but I made two full-sized and three miniature ones)

✡ 1 1/2 cups warm milk, 110 degrees
✡ 2 (1/4 ounce each) packages active dry yeast
✡ 1 3/4 cups plus a pinch of sugar
✡ 3 whole large eggs, room temperature
✡ 2 large egg yolks, room temperature
✡ 6 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
✡ 1 teaspoon salt
✡ 1 3/4 cups (3 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces, room temperature, plus more for bowl and loaf pans
✡ 2 1/4 pounds semisweet chocolate, very finely chopped*
✡ 2 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
✡ 1 tablespoon heavy cream

Streusel topping

1.   Pour warm milk into a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast and pinch of sugar over milk; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.

2.   In a bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup sugar, 2 eggs, and egg yolks. Add egg mixture to yeast mixture, and whisk to combine.

3.   In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine flour and salt. Add egg mixture, and beat on low speed until almost all the flour is incorporated, about 30 seconds. Change to the dough hook. Add 2 sticks butter, and beat until flour mixture and butter are completely incorporated, and a smooth, soft dough that’s slightly sticky when squeezed is formed, about 10 minutes.

4.   Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead a few turns until smooth. Butter a large bowl. Place dough in bowl, and turn to coat. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm place to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.

5.   Place chocolate, remaining cup sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl, and stir to combine. Using two knives or a pastry cutter, cut in remaining 1 1/2 sticks butter until well combined; set filling aside.

6.   Generously butter three 9-by-5-by-2 3/4-inch loaf pans; line them with parchment paper. Beat remaining egg with 1 tablespoon cream; set egg wash aside. Punch back the dough, and transfer to a clean surface. Let rest 5 minutes. Cut into 3 equal pieces. Keep 2 pieces covered with plastic wrap while working with the remaining piece. On a generously floured surface, roll dough out into a 16-inch square; it should be 1/8 inch thick.

7.   Brush edges with reserved egg wash. Crumble 1/3 of the reserved chocolate filling evenly over dough, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Refresh egg wash if needed. Roll dough up tightly like a jelly roll. Pinch ends together to seal. Twist 5 or 6 turns. Brush top of roll with egg wash. Carefully crumble 2 tablespoons filling over the left half of the roll, being careful not to let mixture slide off. Fold right half of the roll over onto the coated left half. Fold ends under, and pinch to seal. Twist roll 2 turns, and fit into prepared pan. Repeat with the remaining 2 pieces of dough and remaining filling.

8.   Heat oven to 350 degrees. Brush the top of each loaf with egg wash. Crumble 1/3 of streusel topping over each loaf. Loosely cover each pan with plastic wrap, and let stand in a warm place 20 to 30 minutes.

9.   Bake loaves, rotating halfway through, until golden, about 55 minutes. Lower oven temperature to 325 degrees and bake until babkas are deep golden, 15 to 20 minutes more. Remove from oven, and transfer to wire racks until cool. Remove from pans; serve. Babkas freeze well for up to 1 month.

Streusel Topping

Makes 3 3/4 cups.

✡ 1 2/3 cups confectioners’ sugar
✡ 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
✡ 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature

In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, and butter. Using a fork, stir until fully combined with clumps ranging in size from crumbs to 1 inch.

Thanks again r0ach. That last recipe was pretty decent. Will try this one Friday night.

Retirement is doing wonders for my mental well-being.

No hurry to sell in this market, and, TBH, I can cover my FY18 tax liabilities with other funds if need-be; have eggs in many baskets I can pick from thanks to good financial planning earlier in life.

Either way, I'm expecting Bitcorn to have recovered nicely by the time FY18 tax dues start looming.

If not, oh well. I'll deal with it when the time comes one way or another.

Not entirely true. I was hmm'ing and haw'ing back-and-forth, unable to make a decision, and Ginger Rick - my partner - merely provided the nudge I needed to pull the trigger.

He knew I was in a window to sell, but I was starting to go a bit crazy with the extreme volatility/slide, and Rick - my partner - was there as a sanity-check.

We each are independently wealthy and only mix funds in a joint account to pay for house-related stuff, groceries, bills, etc.

Rick - my partner - has his own BTC, but looks to me for advice sometimes, just like I ask him for advice/suggestions - Like...

Me: "Dude, I'm stressing out. Should I just pull the trigger at $xx,xxx ?"
Rick: "For fuck sakes man, sure. Why not ? It's not like you're dumping your entire bag."
Me: "Ok. Thanks dude. Love you honey-buns"
Rick: "Take me to bed or lose me forever..."

I put them in the same category as Jocelyn Wildenstein when it comes to affronts to the human form.

As a meme, the Bogdanovs are comedy gold.

As physical, living beings, I am actually repulsed by them.

To insist on having cosmetic surgery done, to the extent they have, usually speaks to deeper underlying mental-health issues, IMO.

((( They ))) are pretty much saying the same thing. The next two years out are looking pretty gloomy according to all the charts, graphs, and shit they rolled out for me to eyeball.

Dude is getting me set up with some senior analysts here to start looking into a possible portfolio rebalance, and we'll see how things pan out.

I'm not worried at all as I'm hedged both ways; both in crypto and fiat, but, seems like it's time to pucker up and possibly get ready for some choppy waters.

BLOOMBERG: Bitcoin Heads Toward $7,000 as Pain Returns on Gloomy Technicals
By Eddie van der Walt
Wednesday, May 30, 2018 16:56:59

-Drop below average price for last year could send it falling
-Price heading for $2,800 by the end of the year, Day says

Bitcoin’s in a world of pain, again.

The biggest cryptocurrency has renewed its flirtation with the $7,000 price level. The slide has helped to also send other digital assets into retreat, with Ethereum, Ripple and Litecoin all lower on Wednesday.

Since failing to regain the psychologically important $10,000 level on May 4, it has closed lower in New York in 12 out of 17 sessions. The hype surrounding last year’s hottest asset class have faded in 2018, with fewer online searches and more pressure for regulators, with technical analysts saying the decline replicates the pattern seen following the collapse of the Mt. Gox exchange four years ago.

“The emotions are no different from the last time this happened, it’s just a different set of people going through it,” said Paul Day, a technical analyst and head of futures and options at Market Securities Dubai Ltd. “We could go down a long, long way.”
Bitcoin on Friday dropped below its average over the previous 252 days, roughly equal to the number of trading days in a year. This could mean that the next leg lower is already underway, with the price heading for $2,800 by the end of the year, Day said.

EDIT: I know the above is pure FUD, and although BTC is currently priced below a level I would like to optimally sell at, I'm starting to consider cashing out another fair chunk around $7,500 if shit doesn't start trending upwards in the next few weeks. "Just get the pain over with" so to speak, and put the rest of my stash into cold storage until after 2020. I'm not considering it as "weak hands", just thinking pragmatically and what is best for my mental and financial health. Again, $11,500 is my "optimal" exit number, but, yeah, this whole Zen thing I'm working on is teaching me more to live "in the moment/now", and the more I think about "the now" vs "the future - which is uncertain", I could dump a chunk at these levels and find peace in the decision. We'll see how things play out, but looks like we're headed on a nice bull-run at the moment...

Technical Analysis

Bitcoin price structure has remained in consolidation purgatory since cooling off from a meteoric rise near the end of 2017. Periods of ranging, indecisive price action are critical for the market to regain momentum for a move in either direction. A key hallmark for this is a descending volume profile, which has been the case since the low set in February.

Although consolidation within a trend should always be assumed as trend continuation, casting a wide net with analysis, while avoiding analysis paralysis, and mapping out several scenarios is the key to eliminating surprises. Predicting the exact future price is less important than reacting to the price action with a potential trajectory and predetermined target.

This process can be done with Chart Patterns, Ichimoku Cloud, Moving Averages, Pitchforks, and historic macro trends. Further background information on the technical analysis discussed below can be found here.

A symmetrical triangle has formed as price has consolidated, making lower highs and higher lows. In Technical Analysis of Stock Trends (1948), Edwards and Magee suggest that roughly 75% of these triangles lead to a continuation of the trend, while the rest mark reversals. In any case, this pattern will be a ‘trade the breakout’ situation as it will likely lead to weeks of trend follow through. Breakouts post consolidation typically occur after at least 66% of the triangle has completed (yellow highlight).

...

Inverted patterns are typically seen at the top or markets, not after a downward move. While this makes the probability of the pattern becoming a reality less likely, it does not mean that it cannot happen. An inverted Head and Shoulders appeared on the weekly Oil chart after a significant downward move as well, which reached it’s 1.618 fib extension almost exactly on target.

If this inverted Adam and Eve is real, it yields a price projection of ~US$2,900 and US$4,600 based on the measured move and 1.618 fib extension. The measured move target nearly matches the low set in September, as well as the previous resistance throughout June and August.

Bitcoin Price Analysis 31 May 2018 14Bollinger Bands, a measure of price volatility, have also coiled tighter and tighter, as illustrated by the Bollinger Band Width (BBW) indicator. An oscillator similar to RSI, %B, which shows the depth of price relative to the Bands, shows a growing bullish divergence as price dips lower without further expansion of the Bands themselves.

Bitcoin Price Analysis 31 May 2018 15The Ichimoku Cloud uses four metrics; the current price in relation to the Cloud, the color of the Cloud (red for bearish, green for bullish), the Tenkan (T) and Kijun (K) cross, and the Lagging Span. The best entry always occurs when most of the signals flip from bearish to bullish, or vice versa.

The Cloud metrics on the weekly time frame are; price above Cloud, nearly bearish Cloud, newly bearish TK cross, and Lagging Span in price and above Cloud. Together, these signals suggest the trend is neutral but leaning weakly bullish because price remains above Cloud. This is the first TK cross since 2015, while the previous bearish TK cross in a similar position led to a multi-month downtrend. TK crosses on high timeframes are significant and should be seen a long exit signal for trade entries which began in 2015.

Price itself is below the Kijun and, seemingly, in no-man’s land. A long entry would not be warranted until price is above the Kijun with a bullish TK cross, essentially also above the neckline of the head and shoulders chart pattern.

...

Conclusion

For better or worse, economic and trade policies worldwide have begun to dramatically shift with multiple political uncertainties. Bitcoin, and cryptocurrencies broadly, have more recently represented a global futures market to price-in credit risk or lack of confidence in leadership. CNBC recently discussed Bitcoin as a fear gauge for the market, similar to the volatility index.

Technicals are the most bearish they have been in months. Based on the current price structure, breaking up would be much more surprising than breaking down. Admittedly, trend-based indicators like the Cloud become more noisy with non-trending price action, and therefore less reliable for actionable signals. However, even when zooming out on the price action, many of the technicals remain bearish. Currently, the trend indicator to watch is the 50/200EMA on the two day timeframe.

Although too early to determine, one ray of hope would be the possibility of this entire consolidation period representing re-accumulation. Essentially, the entire bull trend from 2015 has been reset, which gives plenty of fuel for a new all time high just as easily as returning to new lows. The direction may be unclear, but the volume-based momentum will be obvious.

Nobody ever talks about the holodomor.

Because it's a lesser known event, and not filled with as much controversy as the Jewish Holocaust.

What I mean by "controversy", is people doubt whether 6 million Jews died during the holocaust, but don't doubt that many Eastern Slavs were starved to death.

There's also the extreme right narrative that the Holocaust never happened, so there is also that conspiracy to deal with, whereas Holodomor is generally not disputed in the historical context.

Related to below image, it was the first time I've ever done a Lightning payment. It was stupidly easy at a command line (using c-lightining).

When submitting the artwork, it pops up a big long invoice string. I literally copy/pasted that long string to my console with "./lightning-cli pay <paste-long-invoice-string>" and within a second or so, the payment info page went away, and there is my "text-name-art". (Happy face unrelated)

Neat stuff, this Lightning Network thing.

Never going to ever pay for the box running the node in routing fees at this rate, though.

Maybe if I leave it running for 4 years or something...

You know what irritates me the most ? It's that the posterior shot of this chick reminds me of the wife-camwhore that used to run our IT department in a former life.

Chicks like that have nothing between the ears, and everything between their legs.

Sad. Doubly sad when their age starts to show and they keep on going without any self-regard.

The only way to win is to HODL all the way up to at least $50k. At least I'm not selling a single satoshi until then.

 Here's the real fucked up part...

 A few years back, when ASICMiner came onto the scene hardcore, I was chatting with someone of arguable importance, and he made the point "You know, if you believe in this Bitcoin stuff, you should really spend some of it to (blah blah blah turn the wheels of the economy)..."

 Blew 300 Bitcorns on something that never materialized. Gone. Scammed.

 With the benefit of hindsight, I really should have stuck to my guns, and my gut, that were telling me "But HODLing is a good strategy too, but this dude is smart, so... fuck..."

 KnowwhatImean ?

Quote
The Bitcoin price crash was caused by market manipulation and panic selling, rather than the Coinrail hack that mainstream media attributed it to.

The price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have dropped over the past few hours, with Bitcoin now trading above the $6,700 mark. This means that Bitcoin has plunged down by 11% over the past 24 hours. This sudden market crash has got the whole cryptocurrency market talking and the mainstream media and other cryptocurrency news sites are attributing this crash to the Coinrail hack that occurred yesterday.

However, some market experts and traders have claimed that the hack of a minor cryptocurrency exchange isn’t the reason why the market is down, rather the main catalysts are market manipulation and panic selling by most traders.

I tried. But it doesn't help. Still having more money than you could probably spend (as such whales do) is not that terrible even if your net worth gets a cut of several hundred millions. Maybe I am wrong, but I don't think they are as much depressed as I am right now.

Let's try to examine this from another perspective.

Are you still an "accidental multi-millionaire" because of your BTC holdings ?

If Yes, adjust belt-buckle, make sure testicles are comfortable, and chill out for a while.

If No, try to see the bigger picture. 21 Million is a finite number that cannot be changed. Please try to remain patient. HODL on.

If lightening introduces cheaper/free-like transactions? wont that diminish the value/volume of expensive(price driving) bitcoin transactions on the main chain?

Lightning Network payments are capped at an upper bound. I believe it's something like 0.05 BTC maximum, per transaction, at the moment.

It's great for micropayments, but if you want to send someone more than 0.05 BTC, you're better off using Bitcoin proper.

For now at least.

Suspicions of fraud: the Bogdanoff brothers in police custody

According to BFM TV, the brothers Igor and Grichka Bogdanoff were placed in custody on Tuesday in Paris, in a police station in the 16th arrondissement.

The TV presenters were arrested "on rogatory commission of an investigating judge seized of an open judicial investigation of the head of fraud on vulnerable person and attempt of fraud", according to the investigators.

This is not the first time that the famous twins are in trouble with the law. Last November, Igor Bogdanoff was placed under judicial control. This followed the complaint of his ex-partner, Julie Jardon, who accused him of having entered his home.

If you think I’m a Lugol’s shill get a knock-off, I don’t give a fuck. -Take two drops of it every day in a glass of water -Along with it, take a good Selenium, Zinc, and Magnesium supplement (important for metabolizing iodine) -Finally, take a teaspoon of sea salt and dissolve in two ounces of water and swallow (you will detox bromide and it will make you feel bad for a few days if you don’t do this, salt binds to the bromide and you won’t get sick, hospitals do this all the time)

Do this every morning. The benefits generally take from 30 minutes to a couple of days to become evident. You will feel healthier than you’ve felt in years.
Fast forward to now. Most Americans have decided that table salt is shit because it contains no trace minerals. That’s true. The problem is that sea salt contains no iodine. Go to your kitchen right now and look at your sea salt, you will find a warning that it lacks iodine, “a critical nutrient.”
In order to make up for that deficiency, you are eating all the iodized table salt you can find everywhere else, which means you are craving total shit food all the time.

Not only that, but bromide and fluoride (and other iodine competitors) are much more prevalent than ever. They are in pesticides sprayed on foods, preservatives, aerosols, etc. So while your exposure to them has increased, your intake of iodine has decreased.

Symptoms of iodine deficiency include: Fatigue, insomnia, hair-trigger mood swings, obsessive-compulsive behavior, lack of energy (especially for physical tasks), lack of motivation (especially for physical tasks), listlessness, social anxiety, panic attacks, lethargy, all symptoms of hypothyroidism, all symptoms of hypoadrenalism, iodized salt cravings (especially in junk food). There are more but those are the big ones.

Women who are iodine deficient are at much higher risks of birth defects (autism).

The bottom line is that you're all deficient in Iodine. Before you click back, READ. Dr. Brownstein (I know I know, -stein) conducted a study of 6,000 of his patients and discovered 94% of Americans are iodine deficient. That was 15 years ago.

In the early 1900's the United States stopped iodinating bread and instead began to use bromide as a replacement. Bromide and Iodine compete for uptake in the thyroid. The human body (and especially the thyroid) uses iodine for more than 160 (currently known) critical functions. At the time, flour was the #1 source of iodine in the US because we don't eat much kelp/seaweed and not all fish contain much (plus we're beef eaters). Once we switched to brominated flour, a goiter epidemic broke out.

It became a national crisis. You've never heard of it, but it happened. In order to stop the epidemic you would think they would iodinate flour again, but no. Instead they started iodinating table salt, aka iodized table salt. The goiter epidemic was basically quashed at that point.

Fast forward to 1945, water flouridation begins. Flouride also competes with iodine in the thyroid. Americans become woefully iodine insufficient.

What happens next? Like any animal, we graze the minerals we need. Where is iodized table salt found? Salted pretzels. Potato chips. French fries.

There's a reason iodine is one of the only critical nutrients not reported on nutrient labels. There's a reason they decided to use table salt to deliver it (promote cravings for sales of junk food).

Here is one person's genuine experience with Iodine, there are thousands of posts like this all over the internet:

http://www.longecity.org/forum/topic/67063-iodine-is-magical-miracle-most-underrated-supplement/

Here is Dr. Brownstein himself giving a quick rundown:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afZg2jzHuCs [Open] But why the food and drug administration allows an additive that causes kidney cancer in rats and possibly in humans? Potassium bromate is classified as a category 2B carcinogen (possibly carcinogenic to humans) by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC).[5] Potassium bromate has been banned from use in food products in the European Union, Argentina, Brazil,[6] Canada, Nigeria, South Korea, Peru and some other countries. It was banned in Sri Lanka in 2001,[7] China in 2005,[citation needed] and India on 20 June 2016.[8] In the United States of America, it has not been banned. The FDA sanctioned the use of bromate before the Delaney clause of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act—which bans potentially carcinogenic substances— went into effect in 1958. But since 1991 the FDA has urged bakers to voluntarily stop using it. In California a warning label is required when bromated flour is used.[9] Japanese baked goods manufacturers stopped using potassium bromate voluntarily in 1980; however, Yamazaki Baking resumed its use in 2005, claiming they had new production methods to reduce the amount of the chemical which remained in the final product.[10]

I had no idea about iodine counteracting fluoride, but i'll share what i do know about iodine! The thyroid uses iodine to make thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormone clears cholesterol out of your blood into your poop. While there are many, many things that can cause high cholesterol numbers, in the US, the majority of people simply aren't getting enough iodine.

Doctors don't tell you this. Instead they tell you to take a statin, which only masks the cholesterol problem. Whatever caused the high problem is still an issue, so if your cholesterol was high due to not getting enough iodine, your probably still not getting enough iodine.

Iodine dissipates out of salt pretty quickly, there isn't nearly as much in salt as you are les to believe. Your best source of iodine in food is seafood and seaweed.

With iodine, its a good idea to start low and slowly build up dosage. I took iodine for a couple years due to high cholesterol. I started at 225 nmg, and added another 225 nmg per month until i got to 2025 nmg ( or 2 mg) Then i developed insomnia. I backed down to 1800 nmg and insomnia went away. You'll know when you take too much iodine. Btw, it worked! my cholesterol is normal now!

Anyway, don't put the iodine in a glass of water because the entire glass of water will taste terrible and it becomes a chore to drink it all every day.  It's better to put it in a shot glass with half an ounce of water or juice.  Honestly though, I've been taking a drop of iodine daily for a few months now and I don't feel any differently.  I'm going to have to kick it up a notch.

Not a chore for me at all; use it to gulp down my vitamins and prescriptions every morning. Getting used to the taste. Almost becoming a "pleasantly medicinal bouquet"

I've tasted much, MUCH worse. Trust me on that one, brother.

Looking to increase to two drops per glass every morning starting next week.

I imagine the community would self-regulate and overwrite that stuff ASAP.

Not going to even begin to speculate as to the legal ramifications of running satoshis.place, were that to happen.

That's just some sick stuff I don't even want to think about.

I mean, me, personally... if I were to see any illegal images, I'd probably just wipe the area by uploading a block of solid white over the offending area.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-cryptocurrencies-bitfinex/bitfinex-chief-strategy-officer-departs-idUSKBN1JI2IN

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Bitfinex Chief Strategy Officer Phil Potter is leaving the cryptocurrency trading platform, the exchange told Reuters on Friday.

Potter will be replaced in the interim by Chief Executive JL van der Velde, the company said.

Potter’s departure was a “mutual parting of ways,” a spokesman said.

“As Bitfinex pivots to other strategic international markets, I felt this was a natural time for me to depart the executive team,” Potter said in a statement provided by Bitfinex. “I am looking forward to new opportunities in the days ahead.”

Owned by a British Virgin Islands company, Bitfinex is the fourth-largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world by trading volume. It enables traders to buy and sell virtual currencies such as bitcoin and ether.

The exchange shares management with Tether, a company that issues a cryptocurrency that is pegged to the U.S. dollar.

Tether critics have raised concerns over the past year about whether it actually holds $1 dollar in reserve for every token called tether issued, as it claimed.

Earlier this month a University of Texas research paper alleged Tether’s token could have been used to manipulate bitcoin’s price last year during its meteoric rise. [nL1N1TF1LE]

Bitfinex has denied these claims.

This week a Washington-based law firm co-founded by former FBI director Louis J. Freeh said in a report released by Tether the company had enough U.S. dollar reserves as of June 1 to back its virtual coins in circulation. The report was not a full audit.

Global regulators have ramped up their scrutiny of cryptocurrency markets following a rally in prices last year. The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the Department of Justice are reportedly investigating whether the price of bitcoin is being manipulated.

In December the CFTC sent a subpoena to Tether and Bitfinex.

Potter, an American who once worked at Morgan Stanley was one of three main Bitfinex managers, including the CEO and a chief financial officer based in Europe.

Funny story. I was mumbling to Rick just earlier today about "Well, if we're in a fucking bear market, maybe I should sell some Corn and re-buy when it goes lower."

Price was dropping down to $5,800 when I grumbled that.

Rick's all like "Fuck that man. You're retired. Your stack is too high. Don't risk it."

I shit you not.

30 minutes later, big-ass spike back above $6k.

When we attacked the Bitcoin LN we failed across the board except for the massive nodes that crashed however they were quickly fixed and running again. This was a win-win for Bitcoin LN; only time can tell how Bitcoin Cash will withstand the assault.

I'm convinced their "stress tests" caused my node to crash a couple times, and caused my pipe some grief a little while back.

Got some good debug logs out of it though, and the LN folks are very very fast to fix bugs/issues upon submitting them.

I think one of my crash reports was resolved and checked in within 8 hours of the report, once, for example.

Does anyone know, do I have to spend down on my channel (I only have one open right now) before I can receive payments on that channel? Or can I receive lightning payments that cause a balance on a channel that is in excess of the total amount that I dedicated to the channel when I opened it?

Hey guys. Are you seriously telling me that not one person here can provide me with a lightning address to test out in exchange for free money? Alternatively does anyone know any good causes that are accepting lightning donations?

1) Good question. I'm not sure about how that works - needing to establish at least one channel to fund a transaction. I'd test, but I just shut down my node a short while back - It has become a distraction at the moment, and I'm starting to pursue passion projects now.

2) I mean, I could provide you an invoice to pay. How much money to you want to send me ? (Actually, with my node down, no routes to me, and don't want to send more funds to lnd after withdrawing, that will likely be a problem)

3) Back to point 1 - shutting down my node - lightning is certainly a compelling technology, and I'll be revisiting back when it's even more stable.

 Playing with it over the last 4 months has been... well... a bit of a slog TBH as things were approaching the 0.6 release.

 Funded about 0.5 BTC to play with across a bunch of channels, pulled out 0.26 BTC after shutting everything down. Fucked around with Satoshi's place a bit, bought some stickers, but I believe most of the 0.24 BTC I didn't get back was blown on channel open/close fees, and possibly just "lost" due to bugs and shit.

 Whatever.

 Still continuing to run my full public Bitcoind node, as that is effectively zero upkeep, and I have enough HD space allocated for the server to run for at least 10 years if it has to, on it's own dedicated UPS.

 Just wish this wasn't such a shit season for Bitcorn Sad

EDIT2: Managed to wait for a bunch more channels to properly close out, and was able to pull out another 0.05BTC from my lightning node testing; 0.5BTC funded, 0.31BTC withdrew after testing, making it more like ~0.19BTC that is was either spent, lost to bugs, or blown on channel open/close fees.

This post will age poorly Bob. Thanks for testing and using the Lightning network though.

Updated figures as of late last night put the total "loss" at ~0.088BTC - Hoping that will age slightly better.

Dare to dream what sort of purchasing power 0.088BTC will have in the next two to three years...

So far, it would appear increasing mempool size is a bullish indicator.

*edit* what bones261 said.

Pretty much what I'm thinking - Them pulling their channels will have negligible effect on the network, overall.

If they pull their channels, it's not like there is any fundamental loss of payment routing or anything.

If this is an attack on the Lightning Network, it was not very well thought out.

People just aren't doing the level of Lightning Network transactions that they have put out all that funding for.

I just see it turning out to be one massive trolling-attempt that will end up failing.

Miserably.

The bit the alt-right completely misses is when the walls go up, most of them are so poorly educated and poor that most of them will be on the wrong side of the wall, and the wrong end of the sentry guns. By working to destroy social protections, the rootless, low educated, white males who are Steve Bannons troops are only digging themselves a hole.  
I intend to be inside the walls.  But I would rather that there were no walls at all and we all managed to get along peacefully.  
If the walls do go up, it is because we have made bad choices as a society and focused on ourselves to the exclusion of all others, enough to make those others desperate and dangerous.

I was thinking something along the same lines.

I would rather deal with the small chance of getting hit by a tornado or hail down here, than risk whatever water-borne fury could be unleashed upon my aquatic dwelling.

The implication I get from the article is that he's dumping outside the trading windows (unless I'm reading too deep into it), and that's why I'm confused.

Rick was pretty despondent this morning, as he was packing his belongings into the Turbo before heading into the office.

"I don't know how I can last another year at this job, man"

I pulled him close to me and hugged him. His beautiful red hair, cold and damp, fresh from the shower, resting against my cheek. A subtle hint of lavender wafting through the air from his skin-cream.

"It's just a bad season for Bitcorn, honey. I'm doing everything I can to help the price. I'm running a lightning node. I'm shitposting on the Wall Observer thread. I'm sitting on my hoard like some fabulous gay Smaug wearing a rainbow-tutu. I don't know what more I can do, baby..."

A tear began to well up in his eye.

A longing, proud jealously, of the life of freedom I live, while he is forced to be away from me - sometimes finding me asleep by the time he returns home - I can see it beginning to take its toll on him.

"Bob, why can't Bitcorn just go to $20k USD ? And then I can retire and live happily ever after with you..."

I don't know how to respond.

I open another beer.

If he can retire @20k, quite likely he can retire today. Just change the consumer lifestyle.

That's the issue, though. We are not looking to change our lifestyle at all, which is why he's so tortured Sad

When Bitcorn hits $20k, ahead of 2020, I'm dumping enough for both Rick and I to live happily ever after, either way.

He can pay me back... somehow...

Hi all, I realized that the 2500 BTC injected by OKEX is still causing a 17% socialized loss. This is BTW not the first time they incurred a +10% loss. I find their risk management unacceptable and will no longer be a customer. This is my socialized loss screenshot, which I find unacceptable almost back to back weeks. My tweet including two clawbacks within a month below. Let the world know what is going on.

Late model 928S4 (91). It's a pretty good car, complex but still fix-able if you know what you're doing. Good 340 or so HP, so enough to get underway and reasonably priced. Excellent suspension for the turns, and at 100mph it cruises on the highway well.
I have always had a soft spot for the 928s but don’t know a lot about them. What does the S4 badge mean?

Most likely the Sport model, in a 4 wheel drive configuration.

That's not entrance fee. That's how much should be left in the wallet, after paying let's say 0.1 entrance fee.

Entrance fees ?

How gauche.

Seriously.

By the time Bitcoin reaches the requisite valuations to throw this party, I would feel shame asking for admission to attend, if people can prove a bare minimum HODLing.

Sheeit. I imagine just Rick and myself could solely fund the party ourselves in some obscenely obscure tropical locale.

Point being, there should be enough people within the "party-planning inner-circle-committee" to self-fund the party without needing to resort to... (gags) entrance-fees.

I haven't paid entrance fees to attend parties in at least two decades. Not about to start demanding that of people attending whatever soiree I'm going to involve myself with.

We should have a mud-wrestling pit, a mechanical bull, a fabulously erotic gay vodka ice-fountain (none of that Russian shit), and 55-gallon drums of lube around the premises, for starters...

Bob, when a short gets called, how can those kind of dollar amounts buy bitcoins at a specific market price (instead of considerable slippage)?
Or is it a forced market buy for $2,554,207 @ 6,607.5 (first example)? How would the shorter then guarantee it can pay back all the bitcoins lent?

I honestly am not experienced enough in trading to provide an answer for you. I'm not sure how Bitmex handles shorts - How much of those are forced vs voluntary, specifically.

Retirement-Anecdote: So, I checked up on the retirement portfolio I set in motion with "my people", funded by the BTC/Fiat sales I made in January.

Deferring payments to me by one year has worked out fantastically so far, even in this "blasé" market.

At this rate, my payments will start end of Q1 2019, and won't even start eating into the principle (Have not yet accounted for tax obligations, so that's gonna take some wind out of muh sails)

If I die early, I'm going to haunt the shit out of Rick. Concern increasing that honey is gonna smother me in my sleep one of these days.

Dude is getting pretty fucking morose and stressed out lately. Makes me sad. His company stock price has been giving it to him harder than I have, and they've started withholding more taxes on bonus and stock payouts as well, so he's concerned about not being able to meet his retirement goals over the next year.

Come on, Bitcorn. Hit $20k already, so Rick and I live happily ever after. OK ?

Also, a fucking bird crapped on my soft-top this morning when I went to get coffee. What a disgusting mess.

 If it's the same white party dust I'm thinking of, I had a brief fling with it in the late 80's. I try to keep my vices limited to alcohol and Gods-own-weed, but did wander off the path while at a club one evening. This is way before I met Rick and settled down.

 Anyway, point of all this is, in the throes of the "dusted up" binge, I had one of those "moment of clarity" type things - Time stops, clouds appear in the room you are in, part to reveal a bright light, and everything suddenly becomes crystalline in focus - "This shit is too good. I understand why people overdose on this stuff. I can't ever touch this stuff again."

 Haven't touched the stuff since that night.

 The point of this ramble, is that, even now, decades later, I hear someone talk about "party dust", or I see it on TV, or in a movie, and I start salivating sometimes. Sorta the same way with catching a whiff of cigarette smoke sometimes sparks the urge again, after rage-quitting over a decade ago.

 Getting addicted to drugs is a bitch. I recommend avoiding the addiction process entirely, if possible.

 Withdrawal is a soul-straining process.

And then there's some guys expecting sub 6K.

I saw one prediction that had us dipping as low as $3k mid 2020.

I would like to pretend I never saw that one though

No way that poop patrol will work...

Remember a while back when San Fransisco was famous for being a hotbed of homosexuality ?

Now it's becoming famous for being a hotbed of feces, and many centrist and right-leaning gays have fled the place entirely.

It took what ? All of a decade to transform into a literal shit-hole ?

Sad.

What percentage of gays would you say lean right? I only know you and one other so it's hard for me to gauge but I think it can't be more than 10%, probably less than 5%.

I honestly could not begin to accurately speculate. My peer-group would skew things towards center and right-of-center. I do have some lefty friends that I tolerate with the tacit understanding that we do not talk about politics at all.

I'm not fond of pulling things out of my ass - never know what's going to appear - but if I were to guesstimate a figure, I would say approximately 20-25% of the gay population leans center to right-of-center, it's just that they keep their political leanings "in the closet".

What a strange and mercurial world we occupy; In many circles, it's now worse to be labeled a conservative, than it is a homosexual.

If you insist on a challenge, I will caveat my position on ass-eating.

I feel it's the responsible thing to do, to take a curmudgeonly outlook for the moment, and not get too optimistic until we break $10k.

Once we break $10k, I'll consider being happy again. $20k, and Rick retires, making me very VERY happy.

This is just all whale circle-jerking right now as far as I'm concerned.

Half expecting a plunge back down to $6k.

*Rosewater contemplates a fresh breakdown*

Scene: Somewhere in the Dallas, TX suburbs

6am - A pale white, red headed beefcake of man, rolls over in bed. Glances over at his partners nightstand - his absence being utterly unremarkable, due to having a strange sleep schedule since retiring - and takes in the current Bitcoin market data, at-a-glance, from the constantly running display tuned to Bitcoinity.

The Auburn Adonis, disappointed, rolls out of bed, and empties his bladder - dreading the coming day, as he glances at the barrage of work-related emails on his computer.

Upstairs, a stunningly handsome and well-endowed Nubian-male, hears the stirring from below.

Rolls back on his chair - the wheels subtly scraping the wood floors of his enviable studio - and goes downstairs to meet his mate.

Emerging from the bathroom, the bleached beauty laments.


Rick: "Bob. Bitcorn. It's growing in the wrong direction again."

Bob: "Dude. I know. Remember how I said I'm trying to cut down on drinking ? Yeah, well, I'm drinking today."

A tear rolls down Rick's face. Knowing he needs to deal with the morass of insanity called employment, for a while longer.

Are redheads generally considered a fiery breed? I wouldn't know, personally.

Let us just say, it is in my best interest not to piss Rick off too much.

The dude really balances me out well, and is an extremely patient, and caring partner. He really puts up with an incredible amount of... punishment... from me, all things considered.

I can count on one hand, the times I've seen Rick go full Johnny Storm and "Flame On !" in anger, and, well, let's just say I'm glad that fury was not ever directed at me.

Generally, incredibly caring, friendly, and accommodating, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T EVER PISS OFF A GINGER CAUSING THEM TO ENTER A RAGE-STATE !

EDIT: One of those times, though, he raged out at one of the cattle back in Montana, and it was the fucking funniest thing ever, in retrospect.

Me: "Dude. It's a goddamn cow. I think you need to consider calming down a bit..."
Rick: "IT CHEWED MY FAVORITE HAT BOB ! WHAT THE FUCK !?!!!"

Rick settled on a rare steak after all was said and done.

However, if any of the former officers of Butterfly Labs were to ever cross my path, especially Mr. Zerlan, I can't promise the outcome of that interaction won't result in my incarceration as a result of inflicting grievous bodily harm.

There aren't may people I genuinely hate in this world.

Two of my former managers, Sam Cole, Yifu, a few of my ex-girlfriends from way back in the stone-ages, Roger Ver, Flat Earthers, Scientologists, and the management of Butterfly Labs.

In an alternate reality, where I snapped, and become all "Victor the Cleaner", I would have dealt with the Butterfly Labs issue years ago in an absolutely resolute fashion.

TBH, enjoying retirement too much, after-the-fact.

However, I'm optimistic enough that we'll be buying a new house (ranch?) by mid 2021, just off my BTC holdings having appreciated beyond $20k USD/BTC.

I think my optimism is aggravating to Rick, considering his company stock price has been taking it in the ass harder than I give it to him.

Feel bad for the guy. Has been talking about needing to work for another two quarters beyond his desired retirement date if his stock price doesn't rebound before end of FY19.

Definition of aposematic

Aposematism (from Greek ἀπό apo away, σῆμα sema sign) is a term coined by Edward Bagnall Poulton for Alfred Russel Wallace's concept of warning coloration.

Quote
At age 16, he had a falling out with his father over a property dispute concerning the Ford Mustang. His deeply religious parents did not approve of the purchase and his father attempted to sell the car by placing an advertisement in a local Newspaper. Roger responded by calling the police who threatened to arrest him if he didn’t withdraw the ad. This dispute led to Roger moving out of the family house. He then attended a community college in Cupertino, California called De Anza College for a year before dropping out. After dropping out of college, Roger elected to pursue a number of small business interests.

Josh Garza, the CEO of the now-defunct cryptocurrency mining company GAW Miners, has been sentenced to 21 months in prison after pleading guilty to a wire fraud charge.

Garza was given six months home confinement as part of a 3-year probationary period following release.

Thursday's sentencing caps a years-long saga that began in 2014, with allegations that GAW was functioning as a Ponzi scheme by selling more cryptocurrency mining processing power than the firm actually possessed.

We all know the sage advice that in a gold rush the best thing to do is sell shovels.

My caveat would be to ensure you’re paid in cash. And just to be clear for the modern world, this does not mean getting paid in Bitcoin Cash.

Yes, I am looking at you, Bitmain Technologies Ltd.

The Chinese company is reported to be the world’s largest maker of cryptocurrency mining rigs. It also makes specialized crypto-mining chips, and controls close to half of the world’s Bitcoin mining power. In gold rush terms, it designs and makes the shovels, sells those shovels, and runs half the mines that use the shovels.

Bitmain is steaming toward an IPO amid a plunge in the price of cryptocurrencies. Various leaks of its financials have made it into the wild, shining a spotlight on its business model.

I've made peace with trying my best to tune out Oct and Nov as far as Bitcorn price is concerned.

Praying to FSM that we see another rally in Dec. Have been eating into my cash reserves for the estimated tax payments on the BTC I sold to put into the main fiat retirement fund for myself, but still looking to sell at least another $1M worth of BTC/LTC before FY2018 is over.

If not, I guess I just tighten my belt a bit further, continue paying out estimated tax obligations - cry at dwindling fiat reserves - until March 1st, 2019, when my retirement fund starts paying me.

I have no idea what is going on.

For me this is exactly what functional mild alcoholism looks like.  And after years of it you end up with a very tired liver.

The trick to daily drinking, is learning to listen to your body when it says "Dude, I've had enough for today."

This is key. If you are not well in tune with yourself, you are gonna have bad time.

Becoming a daily drinker takes discipline and practice.

Trying to work on passion-projects and feeling I should be "further along" with producing material in my retirement so far.

My list of projects to tackle is starting to get backlogged, and the drinking isn't helping.

Crypto Industry on ‘Brink of an Implosion,’ Researcher Says
By Olga Kharif
October 9, 2018, 9:25 AM CDT

Echoing sentiments of mainstream economists, Juniper Research is warning that many of the metrics in the cryptocurrency world are pointing to a market implosion.

Industry bellwether Bitcoin had seen its daily transaction volumes fall from an average of around 360,000 a day in late 2017 to just 230,000 in September 2018. Meanwhile, daily transaction values were down from more than $3.7 billion to less than $670 million in the same period, Juniper said in the study, The Future of Cryptocurrency: Bitcoin & Altcoin Trends & Challenges 2018-2023.


The market as a whole has contracted quickly as well. In the first quarter, cryptocurrency transactions totaled just over $1.4 trillion, compared with less than $1.7 trillion for 2017 as a whole, Juniper said. However, by the second quarter, transaction values had plummeted by 75 percent, with total market capitalization falling to just under $355 billion.

"Based on activity during the first half of Q3, Juniper estimates a further 47 percent quarter-on-quarter drop in transaction values in that quarter," the researcher said in an accompanying white paper.

The market failed to rally even amid strained China-U.S. trade relations and Brexit-related troubles, the researchers noted -- prime conditions for proving cryptocurrencies’ advantage as an alternative to the traditional financial system.

"In short, given our concerns around both the innate valuation of Bitcoin, and of the operating practices of many exchanges, we feel that the industry is on the brink of an implosion," Juniper said.

According to The Block’s sources, Bitfinex has paused all USD deposits and “expects the situation to normalize within a week”. The Block exclusively reported on Saturday that Bitfinex was banking with HSBC through a private account of Global Trading Solutions. Due to the nature of the private account, it was not clear whether HSBC is aware that Bitfinex was banking with the firm. Now it appears that the private account is no longer functional. Bitfinex currently has no active method of deposits as all USD, EUR, JPY and GBP deposits are paused.

I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class at MIT, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids with Anonymous, and I have over 300 confirmed DDoSes.

I am trained in online trolling and I’m the top hacker in the entire world. You are nothing to me but just another virus host. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on the Internet, mark my fucking words.

You think you can get away with typing that shit over the Internet? Think again, fucker.

I am tracing your IP with my damn bare hands so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your computer. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can hack into your files in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands.

Not only am I extensively trained in hacking, but I have access to the entire arsenal of every piece of malware ever created and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the world wide web, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking fingers. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot.

I will shit code all over you and you will drown in it.

You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Can't be done for less than ~$5M USD at this time - for the sake of argument.

Then I think about how much that $5M could be put to use supporting my sibling's children.

But what if they turn out to be "unworthy" of what I leave behind ? What if my nieces and nephews turn out to be complete degenerates (hey you, stop snickering. I know what you are thinking) and don't deserve 50% of my estate ?

Not a guitar/bass player (No. Just because I'm black doesn't mean I automatically know how to play bass). Use them for design purposes, tho. Entirely electronic in my studio. Classically trained pianist.

Having fun with shortwave tuning-recording, and turning them into drones/leads lately. Looking to spend at least a year on sound design of my own materials before I begin composing original music.

Have a txt file of about 7kb of lyrics written so far.

To be absolutely fair, though, there has been a lot of work done since Feb 2018 with increasing SegWit and transaction-batching being used.

I'm not going to say we're never going to see numbers as high as Feb 2018 again, but I suspect it may not happen for a number of years.

Was not intended to be a bearish statement. Just attempting an objective look at the technical underpinnings of the rally mempool in retrospect.

It was a perfect storm, really.

EDIT: And to clarify that last point, the overall Bitcoin Network and Exchanges were not widely utilizing SegWit or transaction batching during the Dec-Feb rally, which exacerbated the issues with the mempool growing as it did. Exchanges are, for the most part, up-to-date with best-practices, and we should not have that massive scale of a backlog, unless Bitcoin transactions/usage dramatically increases (I'm talking at least by an order-of-magnitude present daily average volume).

Also, Lightning network adoption is steadily increasing for micropayments, and that shit's off-chain anyway once you lock in your funds.

I was alcohol-sober but cannabis-blazed.

Need to think that had something to do with sensory overload, but, dudes, I've been to Vegas so many times in my life, I'm just fucking done with the place.

The last of whatever "old spirit" Vegas had left, died, when they went to the perpetually shuffling card machines. Had the most fun there back in the late 90's. Lose absolutely any ability to count cards, and I'll tell ya, I've never seen such absolute horse-shit, hand-after-hand-after-hand of nothing but number cards.

That's when I think I lost it and had to walk away from the Blackjack tables. I think I actually laughed out loud something to the effect of "the statistical probability of the last six hands of bullshit we've seen are just too inconceivable for me to deal with right now. This should not be happening with this much frequency. *claps hands. wipes together. opens upwards to show to cameras* I'm out."

How do you guys deal with excessive drinking? I mean, I'm functional, but would still like to cut down.
I had to just stop it all together, and sought the support of AA for a few years. If you feel that you may have developed a physical dependency, (like having to drink everyday to avoid the shakes,) I would seek medical advice before attempting to stop or cut down.

I have Ibian ignored, but I find "cold turkey" works best, provided you aren't a completely alcohol-dependent degenerate, in which case, I understand there may be some possibly life-threatening withdrawal symptoms to deal with (eg: delirium tremens complications).

Emotionally, it helps to treat alcohol with disdain and hatred for a little while. "Fuck this alcohol. Why am I drinking so much and letting it rule my life. I'm the boss of me. I'll show it !!!" sorta thing, and mind-trick yourself into having the fortitude to maintain restraint for a while.

I just had a single Greyhound to unwind a bit. Had another three beers with Rick earlier in the week after he had a rough day at the office.

4 drinks total in one week is progress I can live with, compared to a six-pack-of-beer a day prior trend.

Don't plan on drinking any more this weekend...

you fired your node back up?

Never stopped running it. Just sorta turned off auto pilot, and letting it sit there do it's thing. It costs me a minimal investment in time to upkeep, so why not ?

Just haven't talked about it much, because, well, LN is boring as fuck, still has a ways to go - in terms of better managing automatic channel re-balancing - and figured there was no further point in discussing it as it's not going to be a profitable endeavor in the near-future (if ever ?)

I imagine a year from now, it'll be in a much better place, but still really really rough to use (I had a purchase timeout on me twice, with plenty of funds available, and being a well connected node - I gave up trying to pay the invoice), and rebalancing channels is all manual and really not fun needing to deal with, redoing channel policies depending on the state of each channel.

Run a node with > 100 channels, and it's a huge un-lubed pain-in-my-ass.

Cheers fellow hodlers of the BIG W.O.

Goddamnit man. That meal looks absolutely scrumptious.

I'm not likely to be in The Netherlands/Belgium with Rick until late 2019, and we definitely need to (no homo) go out and have a fun time.

Keep on living the life, bud.

On my end, I'm still looking to dump another $1M USD worth of BTC before December 31st, and praying we see a nice bounce above $10k before then.

Not holding out much hope though. Might just have to dump $1M at whatever price for... reasons.

It cannot be removed. It cannot be fixed. It is not solvable and, you cannot work around it.

I am not a man prone to violence, but when I see outright blatant lies like this, I really want to clock that fart-huffer square across his moisturized cheek-bone.

I don't venture outside this thread very much. Don't see much point TBH.

Find it difficult even loading up the Flat Earth thread, and seeing that tire-fire of 'tardation keepin' on burnin'

The hardware section used to be interesting before Bitmain went Chaotic Evil.

I have zero interest in Altcoins.

Used to do the whole IRC thing, but finding this thread satisfies that itch for a "hang-out", and one of the best places on the Internet to "get the pulse" of Bitcorn, in a manner of speaking.

This thread is a wonderful nexus of sorts.

Don't see that happening though.

Industrial miners are going to begin losing money at these prices (if they aren't already), so I would like to think we're damned close to the bottom.

My money is all tied up. Don't have anything I feel is responsible to tap into*, to buy low, considering the size of my Bitcorn bags already...

All I can do is just sit here and watch at this point.

Sheeeit.

*At the current price of ~$3.8k. If it goes below $1k, I will be liquidating traditional investments to get back heavy into additional Bitcorn.

Ok. See. Right there is one of the reasons I outright ignored JJG.

He just fundamentally does not "get it", beyond a certain level.

I've already cashed out enough Bitcorn to comfortably last me the rest of my natural (unnatural ?) life.

Anything I am hodling onto now is a treasure that I am guarding like Smaug. I'm considering it as an inter-generational transfer-of-wealth. Rick and I do not have any children, and our bags will be passed onto our nieces and nephews upon our passing, minus whatever we cash out if things go parabolic.

I still have that $100K USD party that I'm looking to throw somewhere in the Caribbean...

My comment also includes a reference to Bob's representation that he was going to give beers to everyone if the BTC price goes below "x".... BTC price went below "x" and he weasled as good as any disingenuous person that you cannot rely upon at his word.   

OK fucker.

You just had to push me.

I just had to sneak a peek and see whatever nonsense you are crying on about, with respect to not writing checks my mouth has cashed.

You are so fucking pompously entitled that it sickens me.

If you, for ONE FUCKING MOMENT, think that I was not honest in my desire to follow through with the intention of buying everyone in this thread a beer, then go fuck yourself.

It would have become an OpSec and logistical nightmare; I think even you can see that.

That's why I ultimately "weasled" <sic> out of it, while trying to do so with humor and grace.

But now seeing this bullshit pettiness from you has me seeing red, and I'm contemplating possibly violating my OpSec to follow through (eg: Any user within 20 pages either way of "that" post can ping me for $7 USD worth of BTC to put towards a beer purchase.)

It's not even the fucking value of the BTC. It's just that if I make a "good natured, boastful" post like I do in the past, fail spectacularly - repeatedly - everyone get's a chuckle out of it, and nobody gets hurt, then I don't understand your deal, man. It's called "talking shit" and "bantz", you dumb-fuck.

JJG, if you want your fucking free beer, and finally put your "grievance" with me to bed, find out what the BTC/USD price was, on the day of my post, post your address here in this thread publicly, and I'll figure out some non-OpSec breaking-way to buy your pussy ass a fucking beer and post the TX.

In fact, compile me a fucking list of all users within 20 pages each way of my "free beer" post, and I'll send them BTC (back-valued to $7 at the time of whatever it was when I posted) for a fucking beer, if they drop me a PM.

Then when I see you at the $100K party, you MUST attend, and you MUST allow me to give you a clean right-cross square across your smug fucking face.

Deal ?

Well, should probably go without saying, I rescind my offer of throwing a $100k party, if/when the milestone is achieved. If I've fucked up an intended good-faith beer offering in this thread so badly due to bad planning/foresight on my part or whatever, I have no business pondering more grandiose "events". Not to mention the considerable scorn I have accrued, bearing down upon me, is beginning to weigh heavily on me.

All my calls have turned out to be contrarian, looking back through the lens of retrospection.

I offer nothing of value to this thread.

I should just delete this account and get on with life in meatspace...

Special thanks to PoolMinor for compiling this list.

After much thought, in the spirit of fulfilling my promise, and to spite all the haters, I am offering to send 0.000777 BTC (to anyone within 20 pages of my boastful post @ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178336.msg30630119#msg30630119 - the below compiled list) if you PM me with a BTC address.

My banter was that if it touched the 8's, I would buy beers.

Therefore, $7 / $8999 == ~0.000777 BTC

PoolMinor should have received his TX already via PM.

My sincere hope is that this shuts up JJG, and I get to knock him the fuck out at the $100k party.

What happened to the idea of doing it in Las Vegas? Sad

 After further consideration, throwing the $100K party in Las Vegas would be much easier to plan.

 It would need to be a Masquerade Ball sorta deal to have any chance of maintaining a semblance of anonymity while interacting with your fellow WO'ers in bonafide meatspace.

0.000777 BTC == 0.000777 BTC after-all.

Just a brief update: First round of beers have gone out. I've intentionally used low-fees. The mempool has risen since I started, this morning, and is in the process of clearing up. With any luck, you folks start seeing at least one confirmation soon.

I sent PoolMinor an extra two beers as thanks for compiling the list.

Apologies for the drama, but JJG made me legitimately see red.

That, and I'm a bit pissed at myself for not trying to resolve the "logistics" of the "beer boast post" sooner. Pure laziness on my part, really, and in retrospect, I have no excuse for not paying out.

In my defense, I recognize that I had difficulty reconciling the logistics of handling losing the call - "I can't really buy drinks for the entire thread. That is not practical. How do I resolve this in a fair way to the community ?"

It took me seeing red before I saw a reasonable solution.

Again, sincere apologies for trying to weasel my way out of it. It genuinely was not my intention, and I hope my resolution was considered fair.

EDIT: Just saw the entire first round of people get their first confirmation, so, cheers to you.

Come on, hang in here. It's tough, but your contribution is valued by many posters..
FWIW, over 5 years, I have seen a lot of posters reach this stage. Many recovered their mojo.

I saw red and got a bit cranky. Feeling much better that I've attempted to resolve the beer issue, that admittedly has been nagging me for some time - wasn't sure how to practically handle making good on the offer, after blowing the call. Being able to make outgoing payments with coin control somewhat ameliorated my OpSec concerns, after some consideration.

Not planning on going anywhere, barring unforeseen circumstances.

I enjoy this thread and the bantz, save for the few I have ignored.

Again, sorry for the drama.

Was not my finest moment - Wordy-man pissed me off real good, and I lost my cool.

I still think it's best I formally bow-out of any planning for a $100k party, however. That will most certainly blow my OpSec, and not worth the risk.

If it makes you feel any better, I've given several tries over the years to try to get into whisky, but my palette is quite averse to the strong bitterness of the beverage. Do not enjoy it, and it somehow feels wrong cutting it with ice or water as some have advised me to do.

Can't do Tequila either, for what it's worth. Had one particularly bad club evening in the early 90's that I still haven't fully recovered from. Even a sniff of anything agave-based results in terrifying full-body nausea that totally shuts me down for at least 5-10 minutes.

Then there's that time I fell out of a limo in front of The Viper Room, and puked all over their sidewalk, after consuming obscene amounts of white wine at a pre-party. Needless to say, I was left in the limo with my head in a box while the group went to party inside.

Man... Memory lane of the 90's.

It was an overall good decade. Coincidentally, the same decade I decided I didn't ever want to deal with XX-chromosomal life-partners ever again.

TBH, I'm considering looking into getting pure CBD oilpens and experimenting with that, but I cannot justify paying the prices I'm seeing for 1g carts online. The "black market" real products are cheaper and WAY better IMO, than what is legally available online, to ship to all US States.

Purchased some legal CBD bud a while back to experiment, and the shit tasted like ditch weed. Just awful stuff not worth the price, given the alternatives.

I hope I live to see a day where the USA adopts a humane drug policy at the Federal level.

Never mind all the fiat I am willing to invest in business opportunities, should it become legalized in my State. Have plans for a boutique operation if the political climate changes.

Yes, CBD buds/oil is a more body effect than mind. TBH, it's the "influenced normal state" that is so tremendously useful to me, artistically and productively.

It's the alcohol intake that absolutely destroys any ability to be productive at a functionally sustainable level.

Of course. No argument there. Example being my recent trip to Vegas and absolutely getting blown out on the oilpen products available to me.

I've found that my body has reached a sort of homeostatic symbiosis with the molecule, and I'm able to control my "high" by altering my dosing.

My perspective is, that I've achieved a good balance that I am able to tune, as-needed.

tl;dr: Rationalizing a habit.

Well, watching the markets over the last 48 hours is looking pretty grim.

There is a palpable terror forming in the air. The winds of change blow cold and begin to induce involuntary, organic systemic shutdown. The Eldritch, Older Gods begin to twitch as their fevered nightmares stir them towards wakefulness.

A single bubble of psychic shock begins it's slow ascent to the surface, from the blackened deep.

In fact I am wondering if there is any correlation between hodlers and cat owners which would make this discussion perfectly on topic Tongue

Rick and I own at least two socialized cats. Also care for a few other feral and semi-ferals that we trapped and rescued to give a good life to, indoors.

The ferals are complete assholes, and don't allow us any social contact. Wrangling them for vet appointments is a carefully choreographed routine that Rick and I have developed, which basically involves herding them into one room, closing the door, and then find a way to drop a towel on them so they chill out enough for me to to scruff and carry the little fuckers into the carriers.

Also, I am officially numb to the Bitcorn prices. Stopped myself at 5 beers today before I recognized I just wasn't enjoying 'em. Trying to motivate myself to finish editing a project I've been working on for the last couple months, and just ended up with a headache.

seems like a weird flex to me, but whatever

It's part of my morning workout regimen, that has granted me Ultra Power-Top Super Powars.

1) Wake up
2) Immediately begin flexing PC muscles to stem the flow of needing to pee
3) Reach under bed, and pull out two 14" titanium plates, with hand-straps. (See Sabian Hand Cymbals to get an idea)
4) Place head against wall, supporting my body weight, as I move into a 45 degree angle position.
5) With penis and testicles hanging, begin 15 reps of violently smashing your testicles between the two titanium platters
6) Resume standing position. Put platters away.
7) Empty bladder. Begin weight lifting routine / rest of day


Helps to utterly numb the pain during awful bear markets.

Whats the best source to learn about the lightning network?

1 ) Forget about any ideas of near-term profitability.
2 ) Pick a flavor. LND or c-lightning. (I personally run LND after starting out with c-lightning. LND seems more mature.)
3 ) RTFM. Twice.
4 ) Set everything up yourself, in whichever environment you are most comfortable with. Don't recommend docker.
5 ) Send a small amount of BTC to your LND node, that you are willing to lose (eg: 0.1 BTC), and jump in with both feet
6 ) Start establishing some small payment channels with mid-sized nodes. Don't touch them for a month.
7 ) Don't use autopilot. It's a waste of BTC.
8 ) Eventually learn that balancing channels is a complete shit-show at present.

That should be it in a nutshell.

Lightning. Hail. Tornados. Microbursts. Oh my !

Don't want to give away any more deets for OpSec reasons, but, let's just say, our flight into DFW last night got diverted to another airport, and Rick and I road-tripped it back to Dallas - taking turns at the wheel - over several hours - enduring some white-knuckle driving during torrential downpours, and seeing several 18-Wheelers ending up in ditches.

And now I wake to see Bitcorn taking it in the ass ?

The attacks that we perform against the hardware wallets range from breaking the proprietary bootloader protection, to breaking the web interfaces used to interact with wallets, up to physical attacks including glitching to bypass the security implemented in the IC of the wallet. Our broad look into several wallets demonstrates systemic and recurring issues. We provide some insight into what needs to change to build more resilient hardware wallets.

Hardware wallets are becoming increasingly popular and are used to store a significant percentage of the world’s cryptocurrency. Many traders, hedge funds, ICOs and blockchain projects store the entirety of their cryptocurrency on one or very few wallets. This means that users of hardware wallets store tens of millions of euros of cryptocurrency on small USB peripherals that costs only a few euros to manufacture. Moreover, many users that trade and speculate in cryptocurrency interact, update, and generate transactions using their hardware wallets on a daily basis.

In this talk we look at the good, the bad and the ugly of hardware wallet security: We will walk through the different architectures of the wallets, look at the different attack vectors and talk about the challenges of building secure hardware before diving in deep finding vulnerabilities in the different wallets.

The vulnerabilities we will present range from vulnerabilities that can be fixed in a firmware upgrade, to bugs that will require a new hardware revision, up to attacks on the microcontrollers themselves, requiring new silicon to be fixed.

Some of the (most entertaining) vulnerabilities will be demonstrated live on stage.

I don't care about state agencies.... As long as I am not a terrorist, there's no way they could use anything against me in a court. That's all I care.
I was extremely paranoid decades ago. Maybe I had reasons to be... don't remember anymore. Now I am sure I am an extremely uninteresting person to closely watch, so I don't fucking care.

Pretty much the same way here. Don't have anything to hide. Have had enough letter-agency security checks done on me, that the government has a real good idea of what my colon looks like.

It's sort of a badge of honor. "OH YEAH ?! Well, not only am I TSA pre-checked, I also have Global Entry ! You want me to open my carry-on for a further check ?! No problem. Here. I'll just drop trou and spread-em too, while we're at it."

The Canadian's really didn't like me that trip. Almost created an international incident at the border when some security dude shrugged, put on some gloves, a mask, and was about to reach in there to pan for nuggets, going through secondary customs screening.

Rick shot me a stern look of disapproval, as the security staff were becoming seriously nonplussed.

Kinda insignificant in the overall grand scheme of things, but to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Bitcorn, I've set my Lightning node fees to be outrageously low for the day.

Practically free.

This is some really cool tech, yo.

Really nice to see Lightning starting to pick up momentum; my "month_fee_sum" has been steadily rising over the last couple months.

Still nowhere near profitability, but, feelsgoodman. Feels like we're starting to see the future possibilities coming into better focus.

No, really. Even 100% would be way too much.

Really.

Next four years ? That's an eternity for Bitcorn.

Considering that the next block halving will occur before the next four years, it's simple math and supply/demand that we'll be above $10k before then.

Guys.

I hate to admit this.

I'm starting to get the fear.

Looking into my crystal ball, I see 2019 filled with nothing but continued languid misery.

I'm thinking of just tuning out for all of 2019 and devote it entirely to personal projects. (Continue to run my LND note, tho. Might just fund it some more...)

2018 really took a lot of wind out of my sails. Absolutely exhausting.  Undecided

Wish I could just put myself into a medically induced coma until some-time mid-2021.

PS. What are you talking about funding your LND note?

I currently run a "popular" LND node that I have personally funded with x BTC across numerous channels. I was thinking of adding additional funds to my node, and establishing some higher-funded channels, in addition to what I've already established.

Start screwing around with channel policies and routing fees, and other extremely esoteric lightning related crapolla.

Balancing channels is extremely unpleasant at present. Trying to gain a better understanding of it, and it's becoming clear to me there is not a simple way to handle it, given the current UX/UI.

The closest natural analog I can make to managing a busy LND node is dumping our your channel info, and manually start going through each channel - one-by-one - adjusting the policies, as if I was going through tending my garden for weeds, and plucking weaker plant shoots.

Very tedious.

I'm a little bit ashamed at myself at how horrible I am at prognosticating anything crypto-related, but the current issues with ETH, overall, has led me the seriously ponder; "Is ETH truly and honestly dead, and it just doesn't know it yet ?"

I can't see how it survives 2019 without plunging to at least half it's current valuation.

It almost feels like all the individual elements that have plagued ETH over the last couple years, have recently come together, and left it teetering on the edge of being declared a failed project.

The fact that it's nigh-impossible for the average joe to run a full, modern ETH node is a catastrophic oversight in retrospect.

I'll have to disagree on that one Bob. Crypto doesn't follow this kind of logic imo.

My issue with ETH over XRP, is that - IMO anyway - ETH's growth is on track to surpass hardware/computing capabilities due to the shoddy design of their software.

XRP doesn't have that problem as it's all centralized with no extravagant computing requirements.

Again, I'm awful at this sort of analysis, so... yeah.

 Beyond that, I'm really enjoying Path of Exile lately on PC. It's like Diablo 2, but way better, IMO. Oh, also entirely free to play. Available via Steam.

 Truth be told, Rick is usually the one drinking in bed, and asks me advice when he is writing.

 Not fond of destroying computer equipment in the pursuit of gaming pleasures. Come to think of it, I can't think of a single time I have ever broken/thrown a piece of hardware as a result of gaming. Usually just ragequit the match, shutdown the game, and go do something else for a bit.

 I usually spend time upstairs in my studio when I want to write or work on creative stuff.

I loaded up the map at rompert last night - have not done so in at least a couple months - and was utterly blown away with the growth. It's easily increased at least 4x in node and channel size since I started.

My node that was situated near "the core" of the map, now appears to be forming a part of a larger outer spoke-system of a wheel.

Many nodes in the middle of the map aren't particularly "huge hubs" any more.

Very interesting watching the visualization of the network evolve as it grows.

Nothing centralized about it.

At all.

 There is a bit of a premium for usage, but I've had absolutely no serious issues with Gemini.

 Beyond that, as much as I hate Coinbase, after jumping through all their hoops for top-tier verification, they aren't entirely awful, but they can be if you don't play their game. (I think I intentionally put a shoe on my head for my Coinbase verification photo as an extra FU...)

 Kraken is complete shit. I think they have some pathetically low $100k USD max withdrawal, per year, or something dumb like that, when I last did business with them. Even after going through everything for top-tier verification.

in your ~/.lnd/lnd.conf file, set the following stuff.

bitcoin.timelockdelta=24 (Or whatever lock time you prefer)
bitcoin.feerate=0

then, use

Code:
lncli updatechanpolicy --base_fee_msat 0 --fee_rate 0 --time_lock_delta 24 (or again, whatever you prefer for lock time)

...to update any of your existing channels to be free.

I don't advise doing this, however. You are losing Bitcoin, by at least not attempting to pay yourself back for your channel-open fees when check-pointed on the blockchain.

By the way, have I mentioned - lately - how much I utterly mock-despise Theymos for putting GRIN on my radar ?

I really don't want to deal with managing a miner again - too many other creative endeavors I am pursuing right now, and this GRIN shit is a total fucking distraction.

Never really had mining problems in the past, except when there were power-failure or internet outage situations. Being woken up @ 4am to a bunch of Antminers beeping because there is no Internet connection was not pleasant.

GRIN is a... distraction. Not entirely convinced of it's long-term prospects, but the tech seems interesting enough at first glance. Will leave my one 2080ti mining rig humming along until it collapses.

Have big plans to start a LEGAL agricultural endeavor around mid 2021 - assuming Bitcorn reaches the valuations I'm expecting.

Just finished intaking a bunch of news from various sources, and my gut is telling me that BTC is in way oversold territory right now.

Again, I'm wrong about practically everything, so feel free to ignore me - The thought that I had about BTC possibly dropping down into $1,500 USD territory levels are starting to dissipate.

This pricing in the $3.3k range is going to be an interesting wave to ride; can't see which way it breaks.

I imagine many trousers will be soiled if we hit the high $2k's.

 So, I had drinks this evening with a lawyer I am looking to engage for some IP/EULA work for a project I'm working on, and when it came to discussion about a retainer, I asked "Do you accept Bitcoin ?"

 The dude's eyeballs went nuclear.

 He had heard about it, but was begging for more information.

 Explained to him how I cashed out 20% of my stash to retire early. "I've never met anyone that was involved with crypto. Teach me, Master !"

 I was mumbling on about how I could pay his retainer with a single BTC, but then felt guilty about him accepting the risk, and told him I'd get him the retainer via fiat on Monday.

 Point being, I turned on a new, young lawyer, onto Bitcoin today, and holy shit was the dude ever interested, and "saw the big picture" with crypto.

 Today was a good day.

In fact, the real reason I keep this Lamborghini, is the real reason I keep this Lamborghini here is that it's a reminder. A reminder that dreams are still possible because it wasn't that long ago that I was in a little Lamborghini sleeping on bookshelves in the Hollywood Hills with only forty seven billion dollars in my bank account, and forty seven Lamborghinis in my Lamborghini account, and only forty seven hills in my Hollywood account, and only forty seven Tedx Talks where I talk about Warren Buffets in my Tedx Talks where I talk about Warren Buffet account. But you know what? Something happened that changed my life. I bumped into a Lamborghini, and another Lamborghini, and a few more Lamborghinis. I found five Lamborghinis. I don't call it money anymore I call it fuel units. You must have enough fuel units. You must have enough Lamborghinis. You must CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS. I'll see you on my website.

 In 5 years, technology and infrastructure should hopefully have further matured to the point where you start up Bitcoin for the first time, go and take a nice deuce, come back to your system a few minutes later, and should be mostly good-to-go.

 Downloading 500gb for a node 5 years from now should be such an absolute non-issue, it's embarrassing that people are seriously considering taking a backwards step right now, and failing to see the larger picture.

 And you wonder why I'm legit taking crazy pills  Undecided

That thing in Bob's pants seems to have subsided somewhat.

Turns out one of my testicles was getting all twisted up under one of my legs as I was laying in bed.

It corresponded with the moment where I looked over at my ticker and saw the price spike above $3,700.

Damn coincidences.

Sorry about that, gentlemen.

Twisted up nuts are just the worst thing ever. I've conditioned them to take unbelievable blunt-force trauma, but twist 'em the wrong way, apply some pressure, and it's one of the few things left that really make me feel alive any more.

Ok, I know this is likely to veer into mega-asshole-post territory, but feel it's good to offer some perspective.

Also, I acknowledge I am but a dolphin, not a whale, when compared to the likes of Theymos, and some other OG's that I'm sure are lurking.

Even in this shit market, I'm sitting on several millions of dollars USD worth of BTC, but ain't no fucking way I'm parting with them at these prices.

Anything I sell at this point is treated as a long-term capital gain.

I started mining this shit when it was near $2.50 USD/BTC. SODL enough that my cost basis is zero.

I can see the bigger picture developing. 2018 was a pretty spectacular year for tech and background work on Bitcoin (LND, Liquid, Taproot, exchange-batching adoption, increased segwit adoption, good progress navigating the legal landscape for courting institutional investors)

The bears are well fed at this point, and are overdue to begin their next hibernation cycle, "soon".

HODL.

telomers would not solve anything, you would get more cancer as a side effect (a fact).

AFAIK, only causes cancer once the "original protective" telomeres have been naturally degraded.

Theoretically, a solution can be found if there is a way to bio-engineer a way to do this in-utero or as a "vaccine" upon birth.

I get all bummed out, introverted, pensive, reserved, quiet, and generally lack a certain "spring in my step" when we're down and plumbing the depths in Bitcoinlandia.

Rick has noticed and commented on it recently. I think it's bumming the dude out - as well - to see me so bummed, and it's just a viciously cruel circle that's formed.

Again, this is going to veer off into mega-asshole-post territory, and I sincerely apologize for it, but would like to be honest with you guys about my feelings regarding the corn.

I know it's absolutely shameful of me to have recognized and admit that "All I want out of life right now, is to sell just $1M more USD of Bitcorn, above $10k USD, and I'll be perfectly happy for at least the next 10 years."

Then in the next breath, I instantly think about how lucky and blessed I have been, HODLing steady, and believing in this silly corn thing, long-term. Fully recognizing the bounty and privileges the corn has provided me already, and I'm all like "I'm such a dick. Surely I must be taunting the fates some how wishing for more, when I've been bestowed a bounty well beyond any childhood dreams and aspirations I've had."

My finance and legal contacts all respond with "Brother, these are good problems to be having. You should try to find time to enjoy life more, and not be so stressed out."

If only it were that easy.

Totally veering off into meta territory, I'm having genuine issues with the human condition, philosophy, and society-as-a-whole, lately. A lot of personal/business crap IRL has been weighing heavily on me as well, to add to the shit-sandwich.

Anyway, HODL on, HODLers.

https://offthechain.substack.com/p/who-is-going-to-step-up-to-help-bitmain

Bitmain appears to be suffering from the bear market.

The cryptocurrency mining empire was responsible for more than 50% of all ASIC mining equipment at one point and had captured billions of dollars in revenue during the bull market. The recent downturn in prices over the last 14 months has put the company under immense pressure though.

Here is what we know so far:

- Bitmain reportedly made $1 billion in profits in the first half of 2018, which continued the company’s impressive financial performance from 2017.

- Bitmain began preparation for an IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange during Q2 2018. This process requires them to file documents and information that has become a treasure trove for the media to dissect.

- The latest filing reveals Bitmain’s financial performance for 2018 through Q3 (Q4 is not included) and claims the company booked $3 billion in revenue and $500 million in profits.

- This suggests that the company suffered approximately $500 million in losses during Q3 2018 — not exactly the data points you want investors to see as you’re trying to go public.

- There are also unverified reports surfacing on Twitter that Bitmain’s crypto balance sheet is down almost 90% from a year ago. The reports state the company currently holds 6,000 BTC and 750,000 BCH (~$130M value). Lastly, Bitmain reportedly had to sell 500,000 BCH over Q3 and Q4 2018 to cover losses.

 To this point, it's not enough that I run a full node on my border, as well as the official Core wallet behind my firewalls, with the entire blockchain, but I also have my local wallet connecting to my local full-node for turning that security dial one notch higher.

Bob has been way too upset during the bear market to have sold any amount significant enough to make your point relevant.

 Have not SODL anything since I was openly discussing plans for my early retirement fund in 2017 (which, coincidentally, paid me out my first paycheck yesterday, to keep me going for the next 20 years)

 I would like to think I've been brutally honest with my intentions with regards to selling and hodling. I'm not here to screw anyone over, push any agenda, or be anything other than supportive of Bitcoin, long-term, and be a fun member of this community.

 I do have some tax liabilities that I need to meet this year, however, as a result of setting up my fund. (Why I keep whining about wanting to sell another $1M to "be happy" - only really executed 66% of my retirement plan. Enough to create the fund, but not entirely enough to take a one-time long-term capital gains tax payment and have leftovers in another rainy-day portfolio)

 Have been making estimated IRS Tax payments every quarter this year from my cash reserves, but figure I'm still on the line for a nontrivial low...ish six-figure tax payment.

 Likely to be liquidating 3,500 LTC in late March, to cover a significant portion of my liabilities, and cracking into another piggybank-portfolio to make up the difference (or not, if LTC goes significantly higher than $50 USD).

 I believe I stated in the past my next sell target for BTC is $11,000 USD. Likely to sell a block of 50 BTC at that point.

 

 Sorry to quote this, but;

Quote from: realr0ach on March 07, 2019, 03:06:24 AM
You are a complete fucking liar.  Bob posted NUMEROUS times about how he was making "A MILLION" or "MILLIONS" in fiat dollars from bitcoin.  Do you think he acquired those fiat dollars WITHOUT selling the coins?  The point at which he made that fiat was very near the top and it's a fact he was telling everyone else to "HODL" while he was selling them.  It was all bullish propaganda and "hodl" spam while he was dumping.  I'm sure Bob is not the only one guilty of that in this thread, but he was the main one I remember.

 Patently false. I sold no-where near ~$5,000 USD of the top. Sold as it was crashing down from the top, and I started panicking.

 Listened to a forum poster that said something like "Bob, if you're stressing this much about the drop, then just pull the trigger and sell a block" - Thank you forum poster for kicking my ass.

 I don't feel like dredging through my own history, but my memory on how it all went down is pretty clear.

 Not sure why r0ach is so upset, or pushing an obviously false account of how I worked to create my early retirement portfolio, while BTC was crashing from it's ATH, the BTC/BCH split... and selling a chunk of LTC when it went nuts. (Tax liabilities have been met for my prior BCH and LTC activity already)

Nowhere near $5000 off the top you say?  There's a quote below of you selling $1 million worth at $14.5k.  You sold around $5 million worth from what I can tell altogther while posting bull spam the entire time telling everyone else to buy or "hodl".  By your own admission in the quotes below, you were telling everyone else to buy or "hodl" after you had already extracted "an obsecene amount of fiat".  If you actually believed the price was going higher or even believed bitcoin was a store of value at all, you would be buying instead of selling.  Instead, you were dumping like mad and then posting bull spam while doing it and afterwards.  

 Ok. So it was "near $5,000" off the ATH then. Oops. Oh well  Roll Eyes

 Not sure what your deal is with me. Or with yourself, for that matter.

 You make it sound like I was intentionally trying to fuck over this entire thread, or something, when I was genuinely caught up in the enthusiasm of the rally - Like most of the rest of the normal people in the thread.

 I appreciate you going through and digging through my history. That was a nice trip down memory lane.

 Still failed to make whatever point you were trying to make, tho.

  Ż\_(ツ)_/Ż

 I mean, do you have any fucking concept of meta at all ?

 Here you are, quite possibly one of the most un-hinged people on these entire forums, not to mention an utter failure of a human being, and you're chastising me for my exuberance during the rally, and making some bad calls mis-judging the momentum, and poorly-worded, boastful hubristic posts, while chatting with this community ?

 Yeah, I can admit to all that.

 On the other hand, we have you.

 Whose shit does not stink.

 Right now, I'd consider 1000 BTC @ $4k not being a "fuckyoucoiner"

 2022 time-frame, however, well, let us discuss the issues further, on our WO Private Islands.

 It would be neat for all of us to just buy out an entire archipelago, and turn it into some sort of fruity libertarian utopia.

 Every Thursday, we could scoot around on our jet-skis-made-up-as-mock-pirate-ships, and Nerf-Rocket the shit out of JJG's island.

 Saturday nights would be designated weekly party night DJ'd by yours truly, and hosted by Big Dicked Ginger Rick on our island.

 LFC_Bitcoin would be in charge of pharmaceuticals.

 Mic and CryptoQueen could rock the bar.

OK. See... I have wordy-man on ignore, so I would not normally see his post, but he has a terribly bad attitude about this possible utopia.

He's not thinking of "fun-factor" for defensive purposes on his end.

Can you imagine ? Coconut trebuchets, slings, and cannons, for example, aimed with some level of skill at us scooting Nerf-Gun-Pirates ?

At worst, some dude gets knocked the fuck off his scooter, life-jacket comes into play, and "pirate-squad" immediately tends to any fallen team-mates.

At best, coconuts float on water, so we'll have a bountiful harvest upon retreat.

Perhaps we up our game, and develop jet-skis with some sort of hydrostatic-pressure based mobile cannons, capable of returning the coconuts, softly, back to JJG's island.

Do I have to plan EVERYTHING ?!??

Are you aware of any geographical locations that could turn The WO Islands (name pending) into a reality without having to worry about actual pirates or other random twats attacking and looting?

 Actually, no. Have not considered researching "reasonable" archipelagos. Yet.

 With respect to dealing with actual pirates and twats, I think it should go without saying that some (many?) of us would be importing enough of our personal arsenals to be able to properly defend "WOlandia" against small incursions.

 I'm fairly certain we have enough "big brains" in this thread that we could properly weaponize coconuts to sink distant ships, if absolutely necessary.

 I suspect JJG will be leading the defense forces, due to the constant defensive evolution of his island with "Nerf-Grenade JJG's Island Thursdays" planned.

 No Lord of the Flies shit. Honest !

 That would be strictly limited to r0aches island.

 I like the idea of planning activities for each day of the week.

 Would we erect a temple to The Flying Spaghetti Monster on an Island, attend services with White Russians and Beer every Sunday morning, dressed as pirates, for example ?

This is the highest I've seen my numbers yet.

"day_fee_sum": "87",
"week_fee_sum": "398",
"month_fee_sum": "590"


I really need to look into any work has been done for web-config based stuff for local node/channel management.

Manually adjusting things by hand in one terminal window, while scrolling through a list of channel states in another window is just so... uncivilized.

That Alex Bosworth guy on Twitter is always giving out good advice, but I wish he would just shut up and develop tools that allow us to manage things in a way that he pontificates on about.

I mean, I'm no stranger to raw things, if you catch my meaning, but these early days of Lightning channel management are still very very rough.

On a related note, Rick is actually going through a bit of an existential crisis, because he's a year away from retiring himself, and has absolutely no idea what he wants to do with the rest of his life.

I suggested possibly getting involved in Bitcorn or Lightning development, and he amusingly rustled his eyebrows in that "Huh. Why didn't I think about that ?" way - Either that, or he's going to consider a run for local politics as a Libertarian, maybe run for President some day, all I'll some-how end up being the first Male "First-Lady" in the Whitehouse  Huh

While my views on rimming have been made quite clear - to much consternation of several fellow WO's - I'll be the first to say "I got my eye on you, new-guy. Don't make me come over there and take you for a test-drive."

I used to live in the Dallas 'burbs. What do you dislike about Dallas?

Flat and mostly concrete. Not a lot of nature or variance in landscape. It's turning very liberal, politically and culturally.

Feeling a lot more "guarded" while out in public, not feeling particularly safe leaving the house without a legally concealed firearm.

A lot more "noise" to deal with here.

In Montana, the worst I had to deal with killing me, was perhaps ornery cattle or wolves, but around these parts, killers walk on two legs, and come in all sorts of shapes and colors.

 9pm-ish.

 Really got on my nerves after about 10 minutes, as their noisiness and shenanigans only increased.

I would be nervous AF locking up $1M in BTC under someone else's control, unless I was looking to liquidate it, FWIW.

BlockFi has changed the terms of its interest-bearing cryptocurrency deposit account just weeks after launching it.

Beginning April 1, for accounts with more than 25 bitcoin or 500 ether, BlockFi will pay only 2 percent, not the originally advertised 6 percent, according to an email sent to customers March 20 and a company blog post that same day.

“Due to the demand for our product, we’re making a few changes to our product pricing that will affect your account starting in April,” the company said in the email.

The interest rate on smaller-balance accounts will remain 6 percent, compounding monthly for an annual percentage yield (APY) of 6.2 percent, according to the email, as well as a tweet sent by BlockFi’s director of marketing, Brad Michelson.

“Everything below 25 BTC still gets the 6.2% APY,” he wrote.

BlockFi CEO and founder Zac Prince told CoinDesk that the change was caused by the unexpectedly large demand from institutional clients that wanted to deposit more than $1 million worth of crypto.

Do not look at the price on the phone.
It is perfect.

Personally, I'm more a fan of 10" Touchscreen/RasPi-Powered info-kiosks placed around the house.

Have one on my nightstand in the bedroom, and on a speaker in my office, rendering bitcoinity with Chromium.

Then in the kitchen, I have a first gen iPad that just runs Safari rendering bitcoinity on a charging stand.

I'm not addicted to information. Or Bitcorn. Honest.

Yeah, you get allotted an amount of BAT every month, and it auto distributes them to sites that support BAT. In theory.

All electronic devices with an Internet connection are potentially intrusive in listening.
They spy 24 hours, and if you have internal video surveillance cameras, get ready to go out with a good photo when they steal (sell) your data.

 I don't want to give off the delusion that my "shit is secure and not leaking", but I've been quite happy with the Synology Surveillance Station system for their NAS devices.

 Allows me the ability to completely manage my own video surveillance system, with egress rules applied for IP's on the border for the individual camera IP's.

 Have a half-dozen or so cameras monitoring our domicile.

 Very useful for monitoring our household - while away - once establishing a secure VPN connection to my border.

I appreciate the support, brother. I'm blushing, but you couldn't tell by looking at me :|

That's the other thing that really bothers me about him, is his air of "dictation", "moral superiority" and "my shit doesn't stink, plebes".

Not to mention his absolutely asinine verbosity is enough to seriously make me dislike the guy.

While I do admit, and concede, that I handled my "beer bet" poorly - in retrospect - it was his prissy attitude and attack on my honor that seriously pissed me off, and permanently sour on the guy.

He was righteous in calling me out on it, and I was glad it forced me into action to attempt to "make things right in the thread".

Doesn't stop me from seriously wanting to kick the guy in the nuts, however.

I don't like "his type" of people. I've dealt with enough of 'em in my time.

Not necessarily a vet, but working on a ranch long enough, and gaining a lot of experience working with vets, you learn how to care for some of more difficult health issues cattle may have, if you absolutely need to step in to help a distressed animal that's impacted, or having difficulty during birth, if a vet isn't around.

Well, Rick is off jet-setting around the globe, somewhere, to attend some fancy event, and I'm left home alone this weekend.

Thinking of consuming 7mg of dried mushrooms and talking to Jah and The Flying Spaghetti Monster tonight.

What could possibly go wrong ?

Since I tend to have a over active imagination lets just shtick with the basics.


So, 6mg then Huh 5mg  Huh  Huh I am so confused right now. Double the dosage to 14mg  Huh  Huh  Huh

Day 8 being completely dry of booze, BTW. Why won't this headache go away ? What have I done to myself ?!

Rick is secretly hoping for pump back up to $20K USD/BTC before Christmas, so he can retire early from his own stash of corn. I'm thinking of possibly pulling a trigger myself, at that price, and rescue him from wage-slavery, so we can live happily ever after... and stuff.

Dude has been really miserable coming home from work, lately, and it's very sad for me to see him getting worn down in the way he is. Shit is getting really bad on the left coast, and Rick is surrounded by it on all sides, unfortunately.

I feel so guilty being retired, knowing what he is still forced to endure.

Also, learned that an old colleague of Ricks was recently diagnosed with an inoperable neuroblastoma, and was given less than 3 months to live.

The human condition is complete shit.

If that is your state of mind currently, taking hallucinogenics might not be the best choice of the substances that are available.

Thank you for the sanity check, brother. I'll wait until next weekend, so Rick can babysit if the trip goes sideways on me.

Guess it's water and grapefruit juice for me while he is away.

You have yourself a great weekend too !

Next stop, $6,000 !!!

7 milligrams? That won't do anything. I like to indulge now and then with about 0.25g dried. Anything less and I can't feel it.

Sheeit. I did type out mg. I meant g. Error on my part.

You are absolutely correct that 7mg is a minuscule dose, unlikely to have any effect.

Either way, decided to heed the warning, and will wait for Rick to return, so I'll be supervised when dosing.

I didn't know 'Maine Coon' so I looked it up.. Wauw is this cat really that big?  Cheesy Yes there is a difference between cats & dogs. Cats are predators, but dogs don't catch rabbits to eat, not even for survival.

Maine Coon's can become quite the chonkers. I owned me a big old 18 pound girl who passed almost a decade ago.

They are majestically furry creatures, and affectionate, loyal companion animals.

Unfortunately, they can be prone to health problems in late age, and mine began to suffer from hip dysplasia, before ultimately passing from heart related issues, around age 15.

Fucking IRS.

Got our final numbers from the accountant, and this is the first time, in a long time, that my is bill way higher than Ricks, owing to setting up my early retirement fund by selling off the BTC I did during the dying gasps of the bulls being devoured by the bears in late 2017/early 2018.

Rick suggested he would contribute $x towards my obligations, in exchange for $y Bitcorns. Think I'm going to take him up on the offer to preserve part of my cash stash, and cover my Q1 estimated taxes instead with the leftover liquidity, and put the rest back into a fund, somewhere.

At least this way, Bitcorn stays in the family, and would help towards his retirement plans if we have a couple more months of green dildos.

Also, today marks two weeks of being officially dry. I'm genuinely beginning to enjoy the clarity. feelsgoodman.

Dry breaks for both liquor and herb are quite nice from time to time indeed.

The Herb is a gift from Jah that helps me feel more in tune with life and relaxed. It inspires me to do creative things, and being more calm, reasonable, and introspective, while enduring the human condition, on a daily basis.

Alcohol, on the other hand, just shuts me down, and destroys any ability to work at anything resembling peak-efficiency.

The Herb has been a part of my life for longer than I care to admit. I've considered donating my body to science upon my passing, as a case study for chronic herb use, but Rick has some reservations.

I would rather eliminate all other vices from my life, than part with The Herb.

The Herb is life.

-I do cheer for you to be dry for over 2 weeks, though you should be able to manage the drinking to be occasionally, over dinner evenings or @a Bday etc just skip the 5,6,7 beers a early morning everyday and you should be fine. Just don't forget to give yourself something from day to day as a reward ( like sometimes a fine wine over dinner, or a glass of bubbles to celebrate some dildo's etc)
nah
stay on the narrow way, at least another 2 weeks
took me almost 6 weeks to really start feeling more energy

For my end of the day reward, I'm reserving that time for playing games (No gaming for me during the day, is a rule I've established for myself since trying to sort myself out). Finding that I'm settling into a bit of a productive rhythm over the last few days, and want to try to keep that momentum going for a bit.

I have no desire to intake alcohol any time soon. The longer I stay dry, the better. If Rick has a bad day at the office and wants to go out for a drink, maybe I'll nurse one single beer so he's not drinking alone, but we'll see how that plays out. Also, spiking my triglyceride levels over the bad cholesterol limit was the final nail in the coffin to incentivize me to dry out and try to undo some damage.

The doctor basically laying out the long term implications of having bad cholesterol, put the fear of Jah into me for a bit. Concrete arteries, it turns out, are particularly incompatible with basic metabolic processes.

Responsible adulting is a real bitch.

Their support services are quite good as well, if necessary. Having dealt with a few exchanges in my time, I appreciate the consistent reliability and service-level when using Gemini.

Fellow Binancians,

At Binance, we periodically review each digital asset we list to ensure that it continues to meet the high level of standard we expect. When a coin or token no longer meets this standard, or the industry changes, we conduct a more in-depth review and potentially delist it. We believe this best protects all of our users.

When we conduct these reviews, we consider a variety of factors. Here are some that drive whether we decide to delist a digital asset:

Commitment of team to project
Level and quality of development activity
Network / smart contract stability
Level of public communication
Responsiveness to our periodic due diligence requests
Evidence of unethical / fraudulent conduct
Contribution to a healthy and sustainable crypto ecosystem
Based on our most recent reviews, we have decided to delist and cease trading on all trading pairs for the following coin on 2019/04/22 at 10:00 AM UTC:

Bitcoin SV (BCHSV)
Please note:

All trade orders will be automatically removed after trading ceases in each respective trading pair.
To view your assets after trading ceases, please ensure you have not selected “Hide small assets” in your Funds page.
Withdrawals of these coins and tokens from Binance will continue to be supported until 2019/07/22 at 10:00 AM UTC.
We thank you for your support as we continue to build the crypto ecosystem in a way that promotes transparency and long-term, sustainable growth.

Enjoying watching this resistance at $5,300. Very healthy action.

Over 3 weeks dry off booze. ALMOST buckled and purchased a 6-pack as a reward for working so hard in the studio this week, but going to stay on the wagon for a while longer. Feeling good.

Off to run some errands for Rick before he jets off somewhere around the globe... again... I swear to FSM, the guy is going to burn himself out and die of a heart attack before he retires.

Maybe we should start a militant atheist movement and kill all religious people in order to receive eternal peace?

Why ?

I have no desire to proselytize or convert anyone to any sort of faith. In fact, genuinely discussing matters of faith is not something I am generally open or comfortable with.

Having said that, seeing this sort of talk of militant atheism being somehow morally superior to any faith, is a fallacy, and troubling to me - owing to a certain lack of metacognition.

An Atheistic Crusade.

No. Took care of my tax obligations for FY18 by cashing out some traditional, long-term investments - That was the only short-term pressure for me to sell a "chunk" of corn.

Kept 20 BTC @ $5k USD/BTC in the family by transferring to Rick, and he covered a chunk of my fiat responsibilities.

TBH, having gotten square with the IRS now, doesn't really put any pressure on me to sell any time soon. Don't need the money.

I read some article the other day about some genuine research NASA is doing with locomotion beyond light speed, and it doesn't use a conventional propulsion system as we've come to know.

Instead, it apparently functions by essentially supercavitating the fabric of space/time.

Crazy shit. Wish I could find the article...

Anyway, point is, that's what I think Bitcoin is starting to do. It is going to begin warping space/time, over the next three years, for those of us fortunate enough to have hodl'd strong.

Titanium training remains as a firm morning ritual.

It's kinda fucked up in a way. Retire. Read more philosophy. See how partner is suffering. See how self needs are not being met. Try to reconcile all that selfish shit in my mind about what is more important: Our overall life together benefits vs my personal relationship needs not being met.

Therapy: It does nothing. No need to adjust meds, in my own mind, and therapist agrees.

Bah.

Life is meaningless.

EDIT: And NO. There is no need to worry about me. Not suicidal at all, if anyone was concerned about my state of mind. I have way too much to live for, and still so much I want to accomplish with what time I have left in this plane of existence.

 Even for a commercial drone pilot, it's a shitload of material to learn to get licensed. Decided to stick to the hobbyist arena.

Real fear when you see your brother get murdered right next to you, when your face to face with a lion, don't talk to me about fear.

 I'm betting you're (edit: sp: your) the type of uncivilized human that would join the savages murdering white farmers in South Africa ?

 The same ones that grew crops for you, built the infrastructure you make use of, and are now fleeing from your murderous rampages ?

 If you're stupid enough to get face to face with a lion, you deserve to become its meal.

 Don't talk to me about fear until you either have a gun pointed at your face, or you get bucked off an ornery horse, go flying, and wondering if you aren't going to wake up as Christopher Reeve.

 Also, fuck off.

So you can't put it into your colon the other way round?

Well, I mean, you can always administer a warm water enema if you want to clean out your lower colon, but that's not good enough for a full colonoscopy.

Need to clean your entire tract from the stomach down to your asshole. You're essentially pissing out your asshole towards the end of the prep.

Good times.

I have my first one soon (was scheduled to have already had, but had to postpone it) so bad is the taste?
Btw, any idea how many hours do I have to leave without ingesting alcohol before the test?

- Saltiest tasting stuff ever. It's truly awful. My advice is to prepare the mix, and put it in the freezer an hour before you are due to start the prep
- The cold will mitigate the terrible taste
- Make sure you try to avoid your tongue entirely. A straw helps.
- They suggest two rounds of prep - usually six hours apart - This can be extremely difficult to "chug down", along with 32 ounces of water, within an hour.
-- To mitigate above, it's possible to just prep from noon to 9pm the prior day. Do nothing but chug down the two bottles of prep, and 64 ounces of water across the entire day

*** No alcohol recommended AT LEAST 24 hours before procedure, but I'd stay dry for 48 hours to be extra safe.

Oh, also, I recommend avoiding popcorn for three weeks prior to your procedure. That stuff sticks to your inner-tubing like you would not believe. I have the scope shots to prove it !!!

On a semi serious note..just talking about things can be helpful for some. Hope you feel better soon.
I already do feel like a bit of a load is off, and seeing Bob and LFC open up first helped. I just need a more positive outlook I think.

Unloading is huge, and that's probably more than 50% of the therapy process.

Mental health has been so tragically stigmatized over the years, that it pains me people still frown upon seeing a psychiatrist, or even acknowledging the very real fact that there are genetic issues, beyond your control, that may be mitigated with medication.

There is absolutely no shame in it. It's part of the meta of what I'm dealing with right now in my life, at my age.

After retiring, I decided I wanted to try getting off the drugs with my therapist. Didn't work out very well. Started my first tapering cycle, and started falling to pieces at about week three. Recognized that with all the family genetic history that I'm better off medicated at my levels for the rest of my natural life. Was a very bitter pill to swallow and deal with; being resigned to living with your faulty DNA, and making peace with the fact that medication helps you be a better balanced human.

The truly awful brainfuck is when you become physically dependent on drugs you are on, and start having anxiety about whether or not the pharmacy is going to fill your anxiety medication without issue.

Anxiety about anxiety drugs.

Fuck everything about mental illness.

Seriously.

I heard about the shot glass approach, and am going to try that this time around. 1 prep shot, 2 water shots... I guess.

Rick just had his procedure a couple weeks back, and at the end of the evening, the dude was practically in tears at how sore his ass was. Was thankful that I use flushable wet-wipes and was able to use my supply (he's more of a tp-dude)

Just wondering have you ever need to use it?

Never had to use it, but there was one situation where I had to make a motion towards my sidearm and command someone "Stay right where you are and don't come any closer" to stave off a situation from possibly escalating to something worse than it could have been.

Was top-down in my baby, and another brother was approaching me on foot, with ill-intent on the face.

I hope I never, EVER, have to legitimately brandish it in defense of myself or another.

EDIT: Meta: Situational awareness is a helluva thing. I'm wondering if that's subtly one of the reasons for anxiety in people. Brain is working in overdrive to constantly analyze nervous-system input, and that can be taxing on your serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine infra.

EDIT3: My position remains. HODLing and do not intend to divest any further BTC until after the halvening - but not before 2021 - Waiting for Rick to independently retire, and figure out what we want to do with the rest of our life together. Possibly divest BTC to reinvest in 100+ acre real estate/ranch in rural area.

HODL strong, brothers.

Drums in the deep.

"One of our clients approached us and said they were interested in acquiring 25% of all bitcoin currently available," Dadiani said. "There are a number of entities who want to dominate the market."

...

"A buyer of this size is going to push the price up to make this kind of accumulation even more expensive," said Mati Greenspan, brokerage eToro's senior market analyst. "There are ways to offset that kind of demand-based price increase but after a certain level there's not much you can do to prevent it."

According to Greenspan's estimates, of the 21 million bitcoin that will ever exist, "many will not be mined for a long time and many more are lost for good."

"Yet even a greater number of coins are currently being held by hodlers [a name for long-term bitcoin holders] who will not be willing to part with them for any price," Greenspan wrote in a note to clients. "Realistically speaking, there are probably less than 5 million coins actually circulating at the moment."

Afaik transaction malleability breaks LN.  So Segwit is necessary for LN as it fixes transaction malleability.  Also BIP 114 for MAST requires Segwit.
I think that the malleability bug is separate from the segwit. I think segwit required the fix in order to work. So segwit in on itself is not required for LN.
This is an important difference if true. Can anyone confirm/deny?

Segwit is ABSOLUTELY needed for LN to work.

When you are managing your balances over LN, LND is only communicating with other Segregated Witnesses, exclusively, unless you are opening/closing channels, at which point, it needs to checkpoint against L1/BTC Blockchain and incur an on-chain fee.

Unless I dun goofed my understanding of it somewhere along the line.

Watching. HODLing. BTFD.

EDIT: Targeting possible dip purchase near $7.5k'ish - Watching momentum.
EDIT2: Maybe closer to $7.6k'ish ?

Think I missed my dip buying opportunity (for the time being). Will see how the corn is growing when I wake up. Kinda nice to see dump stabilizing around $7.6k, and now $7.7k before briefly plunging just north of $7,550 earlier.

Hey Bob, do you still want to sell some at 11K?

 Well, glad I have no ability to short on Gemini, and not sure what possessed me to consider a small short position. Nice to see the corn growing. Not FOMOing into these prices.

 No, do not plan on selling any corn before 2021-2022 - After the halvening - at which point, will be looking to divest a mil or two, to buy a ranch with Rick.

 The prior consideration for a small sell @ $11k was mostly to satisfy my obligations to the IRS, but I liquidated other fiat holdings, and Rick covered some of my obligations by my transferring some corn to him - keeping it in the family.

 Beyond that, any corn left over will be going to the nieces and nephews upon my passing.

 Jah has blessed me beyond what I could have ever aspired to achieve in this lifetime, and don't really need to cash any out any more corn, unless it's going to be a huge purchase.

 The ranch will be our happily ever after.

I actually kinda feel bad for Merkel if she was genuinely just dehydrated and didn't have the foresight/time to have a snack or something before the event. Don't like her or her politics at all, but on a human level, it was troubling to watch her try to maintain her composure during the fit. Not going to speculate on any possible developing neurological issues, as I understand she has a history with this sort of health issue.

 How does that work ? To you digitally re-insert it, and snap into place as needed, or do you simply keep it in the glass as a memento ?

2. Ultimately we are all just tourists, using our meat carcasses as spiritual vessels to get a glimpse of this and that for a while before returning home to the void.
Speak for yourself. I plan to live forever, swapping out parts as needed, to be replaced by the parts of youthful nocoiners.
Gentlemen, we have the technology, we can rebuild him.

Metapost / Dark: In therapy, talk of suicidal ideations and whatnot comes up every once in a while - Not a desire to commit suicide (those demons have been destroyed), but more in a joking fashion, that gives me power and control over the idea of willingly taking my life.

But last session, the talk turned towards end-stages of life, and how ironic it is, that some people need medication to properly tweak their brains, so they can live a life, free of depression, but when it comes to end-stage life, euthanasia is illegal.

Was dealing with a lot of issues pertaining to an anxiety surrounding death, and cancer with recent friends and family over the last couple years - had a recent cancer diagnosis in someone close to me, that caused me to spiral into a bad depression/unhealthy cycle not too long ago.

Anyway, doc and I got myself all sorted out and rebalanced recently, and life goes on, but back to that euthanasia part, and having technology to rebuild ourselves, I'm not interested so much in replacing parts and continuing on as a "patchwork organic being". Upload my consciousness, and let my neuron-approximation take mechanical form, or just hang out in my own digital sandbox, until I decide living in a computer is shit, and decide to delete myself.

Being able to upload consciousness into a new organic host, ala Schwarzenegger in "The 6th Day" (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0216216/) would be the ultimate, though.

I may have accidentally injected three marijuanas directly into my neck a short while ago, by the way.

Physio yesterday was challenging and left me wiped out for the afternoon. Next physio round tomorrow, but all-in-all, absolutely astounded at how quickly and well I’m recovering.

Have a trip planned in a couple weeks that will involve a lot of walking, and don’t have any mobility concerns, based on my current rate of healing.

Otherwise the sequence goes on like that:

8.You spend your coins mixing them with your OLD coins
9.Coinbase knows you control also all the other funds.
10.US Government knows you control also all the other funds.

 I make sure to explicitly use Coin Control in the QT client, to have absolute control of what inputs go towards any transactions.

 Learn to use Coin Control. It's your friend. I try to spend oldest inputs first, and try not to mix inputs - if possible - depending on the size of the transaction.

 I should not have derailed with my transgender comment, in retrospect. Many of the ones I've interacted with IRL are social justice monsters, and, in an attempt to tip-toe around the issue, many of them aren't entirely right in the head and haven't gotten help, if you catch my meaning. Dealing with their gender dysphoria is usually the tip of a potentially fatal iceberg, given suicide rates.

 Good mental health is serious business.

My gut says the bull broke out of the barn over the weekend, and shit is about to get real interesting.

I am likely entering lurk mode until we start approaching closer to $20k.

Love, hugs, and HODLs. No homo.

Dude... I know it's all gravy from here on out, but still, seeing the fiat-value of my stash plummet... just, well... it just sucks, brother.

Still HODLing firm until 2022 (possible 'minor' profit taking at $20k USD/BTC) before I decide to start some fruity endeavors with Rick.

Hoping the legal landscape changes, by then, so that we can start a legit farming business. Plan to allocate a nontrivial amount of funds to a "family business idea" we have brewing with a couple good friends... but only if Bitcoin goes parabolic by then, as I'm anticipating.

Antidepressants are evil. I watched 2 of my family members slip away mentally years before the body finally succumbed, all under doctors orders. One got so bad that they started crying at stop lights because the anticipation of waiting for it to turn green was too much. Won't take any pills myself or seek doctor's advice unless its critical.  Its astonishing how many Americans use these things.  The zombie apocalypse is real.

 Ok, whatever. I'm drunk. Rick is out getting his hair cut, so it's story time, I guess...

 Mental illness is a very real bag of shit, and drugs are very powerful tools in mitigating symptoms, hopefully allowing for a "more normal" life. I can't remember if I've ever admitted to the thread or not, but mental illness awareness is one of the causes I support; suffering from depression and anxiety myself. Better living through chemistry. I recognize I will be on prescribed benzos and SSRIs for the rest of my natural life, because I got dealt a shitty genetic hand, that we can trace back three generations.

 Jordan Peterson recently made headlines for speaking about his dependency on Klonopin during his wife's cancer treatments, and his subsequent difficulties in weaning himself off of benzos, experiencing indescribably horrific withdrawal symptoms, that I had temporarily undergone during the process of my therapist working to balance me out on what works best. Benzo withdrawal is not something easily describable to those that have never undergone the experience. (tl;dr: take all the psychic horror of "Dante's Inferno", and inject it directly into your heart)

 I was briefly undergoing a Klonopin regimen, after recognizing that "fast acting" Xanax was starting to wear off on me too quickly, during one of my spirals. The therapist changed me from the Xanax equivalent of Klonopin, and I started about two months of popping Klonopin "like candy" (6 times a day - a bit fruity, if you ask me...)

 Anyway, we had a breakthrough after I complained about the dosing frequency of Klonopin, and finally got balanced on Xanax Extended Release doses every 6 hours. I can live with that.

 Furthermore, I've recently had a lot of fun getting familiar with high quality, 50-States-Legal CBD vape products, and found stuff that works well to further keep me relaxed, calm, and clear-headed.

 As for the SSRI's, yeah, they aren't perfect, they have side effects that are unpleasant, but at the end of the day, I would rather have knowable side-effects than be crippled with depression. I do worry about the long-term exposure to the benzo and SSRI drugs, as I've been on them for a couple decades now, and fear I'm likely to develop low-grade Parkinsons later in life, but I'll deal with that bridge if and when I get to it.

 CBD on the other hand, is really nice. Glad that is available to me, legally. Some very high quality, 50-States legal products are entering the marketplace. It will be a wonderful world when THC is 50-States legal.

 Keep on HODLING, brothers. Back to my beer. It's starting to get warm.

 *hugs and kisses. no homo*

However, I would like to warn you about the vape products; be extra super duper careful about your sources... The dispensaries around here have plenty of CBD flowers that are nearly devoid of THC.

 To say that I am "up-to-date" on the current black market problems plaguing the nation, would be an understatement. Compassionate and rational THC legalization is another cause that I am passionate about, and it's extremely troubling to hear about the black market problems causing harm to people. To me, it seems the only rational thing to do is federally legalize and tax THC product, requiring licensing and lab-testing. It would neuter the black market overnight.

 I'm not sure why manufacturers are using Vitamin E Acetate as fillers, for example. How does a product that tests over 300% for acceptable Myclobutanil entering the marketplace ? It converts into cyanide gas when heated and inhaled.

 As for the 50-States-Legal CBD vape products, it's completely above board, lab tests proudly displayed, and self-regulating towards wellness. At least with the legitimate sources I have settled on, after a four month period of sampling a wide variety of offerings.

If you are asking about CBD tinctures and sublinguals, there are a lot of high quality products available. There is one vendor I came across, both for vaping and tinctures, that I just can't stand the flavor profiles of, but check out "For the People / FTP" CBD as an example. It's full spectrum phyto-good-shit CBD all testing <0.3% THC, with the extraction processes being so refined and clean, that you might as well be drinking pure organic juice-cocktails.

CO2-extraction methods are one helluva fucking thing.

Someone convince me not to take $100k USD/BTC ($75k USD, after-tax) profit, next time the corn crosses $10k USD/BTC.

Thought that might be a nice little bonus to add to our home-maintenance account; Rick manages all our household expenditures, and looking to make sure our joint account is nicely stuffed before he retires. Stick $x amount of cash in the house account, dump $y dollars back into my "traditional" Rainy-Day fund, and then sit on a little bit in cash, for reasons I can't articulate right now.

I mean, we really don't need the money, but it's always nice to materialize bonus-fiat from these whackadoodly crypto-thingies swinging around wildly. Rick is more like "I don't want to count my chickens, dude. All these crypto dollars don't exist to me until it's realized", and I'm all like "But dude, I believe that the 2022 timeframe will be worth waiting for, before we consider dumping a chunk for our ranch endeavor, plus extra gravy". So, yeah. Happy medium with selling off a small chunk of 10 corns ?

Napa was wonderful this weekend. Beautiful weather, sampled some amazing wines. Almost overdosed at Mustards on Onion Rings and their Burger with added bacon, mushrooms, and cheese. The coupe de gras was when Rick recommended I put the onion rings onto my burger, and, well, I damn near blew chunks after stuffing it down - Had a good 5 minutes of crippling meat-sweats, trying to get my breathing and gut under control after downing the last two bites.

Sampled some amazing 1987 reserve from some fancy winery we flew out to visit, and it was practically all down hill from there - Nothing was going to top that '87 we drank, so I stuck to beer after that. Napa Valley produces some absolutely spectacular stuff - Mostly Cabs, if people are looking for something new to try, and not familiar with the region.

Rick and I are going to make it an annual thing, to visit during harvest season - to celebrate releases of new vintages.

Upward and onward, corn !

Yo Bob! Maybe you'll be able to solve your cashing out dilemma soon? JJG's advice seems pretty spot on to me: little anxiety, no pain.

I have JJG on ignore for reasons mostly dealing with maintaining my sanity. Did not read his opinion. Still hmming and hawing about a small selloff at $10k, but leaning towards HOLDing through to the New Year, at least. Looking to sell a small chunk (<25 BTC) more in line with Rick officially retiring sometime mid-late 2020.

Realized I didn't REALLY need the extra cash right now, as I have enough liquid already - should I need it, and no sense topping off our home account before corn moons some more.

Back to HODLing.

EDIT: Ok, went back and read JJG's post, looking through his post history... blah blah blah... Anyway, yes, he does make a solid case for cashing out in chunks over a period of time, but, I think the recent decision to not do anything next time we cross $10k, already having access to any liquidity I need for day-to-day living, and wait for mid-late 2020 closer to Ricks retirement will pay-off, should we decide we need a cash injection at that point. YOLO... and shit. Would rather HOLD longar, if I have a choice.

EDIT2: We had a recent hot-water heater issue/replacement/repair that ended up costing less than 1 BTC to resolve (and sheetrock repair after a slower water-leak was discovered two days later) that left me asking Jah and The FSM (RAmen. May his noodly appendage touch you all) if I was alright to handle any emergency expenditures. I hate doubting myself and the plans I've executed. Need to learn how to remain more calm. Damnit.

... the weed didn't turn out as great as last time ..

 Nice to see the results of your harvest, regardless. I can't wait for it to become legal in Texas. It cannot happen soon enough. Have been following this "vape crisis" stuff across the nation, in the black market, and really enjoyed stopping in at some legal dispensaries - during our last trip to Napa Valley - and "shootin' the shit" with the proprietors about the state of the market lately, and the legit shops in CA really do pride themselves on the steps they take towards providing quality medicine.

 It just breaks my heart, every time I hear about someone who smokes a boof cart and ends up in a hospital. There's just no reason for that stuff to be happening, and it's all black market evil. To criminalize ganjah is to go against God and the natural order of the universe, my friends.

 It's sad, in a way. I've discussed with Rick the unlikely consequence of myself being caught in a compromising position of possessing concentrate for personal use (Currently using legal CBD stuff here at the moment, and quite enjoying it), and paying a legal firm, and joining up with various local orgs to present a jury nullification defense. I pray it never comes to that, and I hope we live happily ever after with no legal unpleasantness. Prepared to fully fund a jury nullification action if I'm to go down in flames...

Also, day 5 of fighting off a flu-bug that I must have caught on the way back from Napa. Finally starting to feel a bit better with swallowing and my throat and ears not hurting as much. Drinking plenty of juices. My body recoils in terror at the thought of consuming any alcohol. Whatever bug is going around this season is really bad, folks.

Was at the pharmacy this AM to pick up some drugs for myself, and saw a sign that said "Get your free flushot and recieve a $5 coupon for use in store" and my conspiracy-theory engine starting going off with five alarms.

Personally I think the 40s are too unwieldy, pick up one of the 100 round double drum mags.

First off, I love you man. No homo.

Secondly, I've never shot a 40 before and sort of raised an eyebrow when presented with the option.

I did see they had plenty of stock on the 100 round double drum magazines, but that seemed a bit "overkill" for me. I'm a pretty accurate shot already and have naturally grown used to 30s Wink

Concerned anything larger than a 30 round magazine is going to ruin the "rhythm" of using the firearm; mentally-counting-firing-ejecting-reaching-for-next-magazine-rhythm-cadence. The 40 rounder was more of a curiosity and an "impulse buy" for me - for practice use. It's a polymer base, which I'm instantly skeptical AF of. Anything that I want for *serious* use is made of a metal of some-sort. Also picked up an additional two .45 ACP magazines for my Kimber main sidearm. Still can't find a decent IWBH that will accommodate my custom-optic Kimber .9mm Ultracarry... so, it sits loaded in my office drawer here should things go sideways... hopefully never ever.

Situation: Normal, brothers.

Peace and love in the universe. I'd normally sacrifice my anus and offer to take-one-for-the-team and take a running jump at this red candle, but, like, I'm really sick fighting off this flu with the power of modern chicken-soup and comfort-blankets. I'm not quite alright in the head. It's all this flu medication that is starting to make me fruitier than normal.

re: My desire to take some profits during this volatility. I'll do 10 corns @ 10k USD regardless, to take a bit of "pressure" off. Sorry for the hmming-and-hawwing back-and-forth on pondering decisions, out-loud.

I'm not really too concerned myself about taking some profit; Rick is nearing retirement within the next year, and is a bit bummed out that corn isn't higher in value, as a hedge for him to ragequit like I did. It would help him calm his tits a bit if our home maintenance account was topped off closer to his anticipated target, for us to get through the next 20 years at least. I'm hoping that by shaving off parts of my stash here and there for some fiat, might calm him down a bit.

Money can be such a bitch to worry about. I've learned to chill out and relax now that I've settled nicely into retirement, but Rick is experiencing some anxiety ahead of his exit, and it's starting to wear on me. Dealing with his "emotional turmoil" at times, takes its toll... The things we put up with for those we love, huh ? Wish the dude would just relax more and not worry about money. It's silly. We've both reached that point in our lives where we've attainted far beyond what we had ever imagined in childhood, but honey-buns just can't seem to learn to "don't worry - trust the plans we have put in place with money management" (Personal: My portfolios are averaging 12% returns so far this year. Only 2.4% in the last 30 days, however.)

No, the air itself would have to be over 378K for that to happen. You would have to enter that room in a special heat resistant suit.
As to curing quickly, not sure how that would affect the taste.
210 degree celsius is just a few above 100K from THC vaporization temperature, so it would affect potency as well.
I'd say 18 deg. celsius with constant air blowing, around 50% humidity, no UV light. About two weeks. Quality, taste, crispiness of buds.
I never touched any drugs, btw. *cough* *cough*

I may or have not undergone some abject failures at experimentation with creating crude concentrates, utilizing Everclear as a solvent agent... but I digress... The recipe I was following called for decarbing plant at 165F (previously, incorrectly specified 165C) for 30 minutes. YMMV it seems.

Anyway, can't wait for things to go legal so I can spend the rest of my life on this planet earning a green thumb, and live happily ever after.

As for my hmming and hawwing about any moves shaving off from my stash to settle Rick's neurosis bleeding into my life, I'm still trying to stick firm with my gut of not touching my stash until 2022 for a small sale to fund our ranch & farm business.

Thank you folks, for beating some reason back into me, even via PMs, while venting my lameass first-world problems of wanting to do something @ $10k.

Rick just needs to learn to chill the fuck out, and I need to work on having a firmer pimp-hand.

Edit: Even thanks to JJG, who I have on ignore, but read and considered his points.

The problem with legal status of THC etc. is that it might change back again after legalization and then your business and also passion is fucked.

I'm fairly convinced that once it's Federalized, and the government recognizes it has a new, considerable teat to squeeze for tax revenue, it will be a difficult move to reverse. Similar to re-establishing alcohol prohibition. I'm fairly certain it would be cause for civil war to break out in the USA, were alcohol to be outlawed, at this time.

There's just too much black market THC product going around out there that is causing serious health concerns (eg: Vitamin E-Acetate being used as a thickening agent for black market concentrates, leading to lipid-based pneumonia. e-Salts and THC oil mixtures combined and forming hydrochloric acid in the lungs).

The trips I've made out to California, and Las Vegas, and engaging with all the above-board operators gives me a small window of insight of a larger Utopia to come, should the waves ripple the way I hope they do.

Until then, I will remain patient. And HODL, if Rick calms his goddamn tits...

Nicotine is not that addictive at all. What, you get a few and ever fewer fleeting cravings per day for a few weeks? Does not compare to quitting heroin...

 Well, I mean if you're going into nicotine vs opiate withdrawal, I'll raise you benzodiazepine vs opiate withdrawal, for "Bigger Sack of Shit" Award. Not that I would know anything about opiate withdrawal. Just my limited exposure with benzo widthdrawal during treatment adjustment was enough to put the ever-loving fear of the Flying Spaghetti Monster's wrath into my noodley appendages.

 Also, wishing a certain someone in this thread pleasant thoughts, through psychic-hell tribulations.

EDIT: I quit cigarette smoking cold-turkey through sheer force-of-will a couple decades back, myself. I was a (more than usual) cranky asshole for a month or so.

Pffffff still f***ed up on my laptop.....??

I am absolutely DREADING the day when I finally need to replace my 2015 Macbook Pro. It's still quite useful, but recently played a super sad trombone when I discovered it was not capable of driving a 4k Display @ 60hz. Hate the idea of that visual bar on the new lappies, but, well, no use trying to fight being bent-over by Apple.

Next major upgrade I'm waiting for is the new Mac Pro. I recovered from a catastrophic HD failure (factory SSD replacement) on my main 2013 trashcan Mac Pro a while back, and don't quite feel like re-activating some software licenses before starting on my next major project, and working on a laptop with a 4k display at 30hz kinda sucks, so... Video gaming and doing some recording with outboard gear before ramping up for "major" production of... something ... early in the New Year.

I'm starting to ramble on like JJG here. I better wrap this up.

Putting on the weight is easy AF. Getting rid of it, the older you get... Just... sheeit. Looking good takes work as age sets in.

Speaking of which, what's this shit with Dennis Quaid dating someone like 29 years younger ? What do you even have in common with that difference in age (beyond the obvious desire to rut like two caribou in heat)

You seem to be very good at predicting...

I appreciate the sentiment, but to be honest, I'm just pulling gut-feelings out of my ass. Something hasn't felt right since the plunge down from $10k. We were stable for so long, and now have this shitfuckery to deal with. I suspect things are going to become wildly unpredictable the closer we get to the halvening. One of the reasons I'm trying to HODL strong until at least 2022 before making a decision to do anything with a small portion of my stash - Counting on it easily being over $25k USD/BTC by that time.

Just another week in Bitcoinlandia, either way.

Do you think there will be a strong price correction before or after halvening?  I'm not asking you for financial advice, I just want to know what you expect more.

 Not expecting us to drop below $6k USD/BTC before the halvening, but anything can happen. I do expect the price to be back above $10k before the halvening, but don't have a good "gut feel" for where we will be six months out, post-halvening. Too many variables are unknowable right now.

 If I was to pull a number out my ass right now, I would guess around $20k USD/BTC, six months out, post-halvening. Trying to set my targets intentionally low so as not to completely bum myself out sorta thing.

 Dude. I understand you are trying to be edgy and cool and stuff, but please just stop it. You are dealing with HODLers the likes of which you have never encountered before.

 Please stop before we have to ignore you. If you are going to make such statements as dropping to $2k USD/BTC is possible, then I will simply respond with "Do you even recognize that cost of production is about $6k USD/BTC ?"

 The sheer dollar investment in the infrastructure presently supporting Bitcoin, and taking the last five years of trends into consideration, I do not foresee a situation where we drop that low. I look forward to your insightful reasoning to support Bitcoin dropping below cost-of-production levels.

If he really needs the money to top off our house accounts and calm his neurosis, I'll raid one one of my other after-tax accounts that are just sitting there, appreciating, with money I am blessed to not need right now, or in the near future.

May take some small (<$500k USD) profits at that point ($15k), but still holding out for 2022 before shaving off a chunk of corn to fund our ranch and buy me a MacLaren. Going to keep our Porsches. Don't feel like buying anything new from them until their EVs mature a bit more. The MacLaren should be a fun toy in the meantime.

Oh no! Not Bakkt again! This is going to trigger V8!

I must admit, I don't understand Bakkt. There are a lot of different things and stuff happening with Bitcoin lately, and kinda hard to keep on top of everything that's developing or being rolled out.

Bummed out bailing on LND as "entirely unprofitable and a management nightmare", GRIN being a pile of shit (new 2080ti gaming rig on the positive side !) and nothing else being interesting to me in crypto space right now, in terms of Layer 2 Bitcorn stuff. Even Liquid is boring AF to me.

So, I will just HODL until $15k.

 Nope. Already took care of Rick's needs for our retirement account; moved some fiat around from my traditional accounts into our joint account. Hedging BTC is gonna lay some bigass eggs near 2022-ish, and don't want to take some profits until at least $15k - firm - before 2022.

To be completely transparent, I'm liquidating however many BTC will be needed for me to buy a nicely specced-out Mac Pro when the new ones are released (any day now) before 15k.

Hoping it'll be less than 1 BTC.

HODLing my corn. Not sure I want to sell 2 BTC at this level to buy the new Mac Pro when it's released, along with the new 16" Macbook Pro - as I had originally planned. Might just raid one of my piggy banks for that purchase if we're not back above $10k in the next 30 days.

Ever since I graduated from titanium plates, and switched up the routine to using raw existential angst - channelling it while forcibly clapping testicles with my hands, has helped me reach my final form.

 I know we're being fucked with, at the moment, and they are trying to shake us out. Long term fundamentals remain strong. If you believe in corn, reasons to HODL should be self-evident.

 On a personal level, bummed to see it drop below $8,200 - I dislike being wrong. Looked like we had somewhat decent resistance forming that just totally had the rug pulled out from under it in the last couple days.

 Does not make sense to keep money liquid, just sitting there, earning basic sub 0.5% interest rates in a traditional checking account; take a number you are comfortable with not touching for at least a year, and put it into a managed fund, if you can. The fee's are more than made up for with the profits you will likely realize.

 In my experience, anyway.

Rick came home from a terrible day at the office yesterday, and we went out for drinks, nachos and queso (with seasoned ground beef. MMMMM.) They are doing a reorg at EvilCorp and he's very upset with the new manager that has been assigned to him. I believe it was the first time I've ever seen him come home as upset as he was, and frustrated due to work. He was planning on retiring n months from now, but doesn't think he can last that long due to EvilCorps latest management reshuffle, and needs to wait for at least one more vesting cycle to comfortably meet his tax obligations for FY2019.

He mused "I wish Bitcoin was at $20k so I could just retire off my own stash" while mostly venting, and me listening.

I really don't want to sound like a little first-world-problems princess-bitch like this, but I really do miss the days of me lamenting the boredom of being stuck in a $10k range for a bit.

Were we back at $10k right now, I would liquidate enough Bitcoin to rescue Rick from wage-slavery, understanding it's going against my own long-term best interests. I really wish I could break OpSec and share storytime, but... yeah... the idiots have practically gained control of Silicon Valley upper management now at EvilCorp. It's getting bad out there, folks.

Very sad to me how shit rises to the top, while hard working and passionate senior engineers get utterly abused and humiliated, by being forced to serve under managers that couldn't code "Hello World" in BASIC.

EvilCorp may or may not be a "Big Five" tech company, FWIW. I'll leave it up to you guys to image.

 Exactumundo. Why sell at these levels, unless *ABSOLUTELY* necessary.

 TBH, I'm quite pleased with myself, with how I have set up my various after-tax accounts, and my main retirement fund - fueled by BTC as it was coming down off the ATH. It has been very nice able to dip into my various fiat portfolios to suck cash out of, when needed, beyond what I have budgeted for myself for retirement purposes. Topping off the house account to satisfy Rick's neurosis - prior to his retirement - is the most significant example I can think of sound foresight and financial management, without needing to dip into my BTC stash to meet financial obligations.

 Again, fully recognizing I'm an edge-case, and I don't mean to gloat. Just trying to share my experiences with how I have put the fiat from BTC to work for me, to better-than-expected results.

 I'm finding that many of the "modern" tools available to US investors via major Institutions' web interfaces, are actualizing nontrivial returns. *WELL* above 6% annually on USD fiat investments.

Calm down Bob, if BTC recovers and starts to climb perfect and if it has to go down, no problem, we will buy more, I know that this scenario does not solve your situation, but let the laggards accumulate a little more satoshis. Cool
hahahahaha.... Reminds me of this scene in Airport.  Sorry I could not find a better resolution.


Point is, the feeling I'm getting is all this price lagging is bearwhales trying to shake out the weak hands. I'm thinking a flash-crash to $6,500 for a few hours would be a great buying opportunity, and a level that people will likely starting panicking and dumping.

There is a strong resistance at 6.4k, but a one closer around 7k, look like this one holds and I am not sure anymore we head to 6.5k... the move is really slow right now and 7.1k is probably a decent price to buy.
Decided to buy 0.31 BTC today with a target around 8k for mid January max. There is another rally expected because the charts and the RSI look really similar to Mach-April 2018!
Best of luck!  

$7k holding is absolutely critical. If it breaks, prepare for maximum rectal and testicular discomfort.

Solution: switch to linux
its own kind of hell
I am also about to convert to linux.
I was fine with win7. I liked it. It was doing alright. It had everything I would want from an operating system.
Tried win10. Didn't like. One bit.
Tried linux before but never used it for a long time. It has its own fuck ups I believe but nothing is perfect and I still believe it is better than w10. Hopefully I am not making a mistake.

<ramble>

It's getting to the point now where I use different devices and OS's for different things, and see the value that each of them has.

Windows is my go-to for gaming and game-dev because, well, that's just the way the universe works.

MacOS is my go-to for anything professional, private, and secure compute purposes.

Linux is used on various RasPi's I have around the house running bitcoinity in chromium, and on anything that is critical infra (eg: firewalls/routers/bitcoind server)

I find there is not one solution that suits me best. YMMV.

It's a Unix of some sort, but it's not linux.

Civilized colonoscopies are done with intravenous diazepam, inducing a dreamlike half sleep which allows you to watch the procedure on the monitor without any discomfort. You don't even feel the insertion.

I can't imagine even being in a highly benzo'd-up state, while having scopes jammed up my ass; whilst being pumped full of air. They totally knock you fuck the out for the procedures here.

Waking up in recovery and letting violent winds rip from my anus, with the staff's blessings, makes me feel unbelievably alive.

Nothing better than that first major fart you let loose after a scoping, but I digress...

bad flu can kill you

Caught the flu twice in December. Developed into a nasty dry cough towards the end of fighting off the second flu. Never felt worse in my life before. Doctor diagnosed me with "Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome" and the lung x-rays results showed signs of mild bronchitis.

Dude put me on Z-Pak for 5 days (antibiotic), Albuterol inhaler, and QVAR inhaler corticosteroid to reduce inflamation. Platelet counts are higher than normal, likely due to fighting off the infections, but seeing a hematologist some-time this week to get the official rundown - Currently taking baby asprin every morning to thin my blood out a bit in the meantime.

Getting old fucking sucks.

To say my shit got fucked up in December would be an understatement. Regardless, Doc realized I needed all the help I could get with the condition he saw me in. I understand all the issues with antibiotics, and trust me when I say I needed them this time. Were not able to deduce if it was viral or bacterial bronchitis, but the blood work was screwy enough that he wasn't taking any chances with me.

Aspirin is a bad thing in case of brain stroke. The thinning of the blood make worse the hemorrhage.
So there are pro's and con's.

Only taking the baby aspirin (81mg) once a day until we figure out why my platelets are out of range (curiously, hemoglobin is completely within range). To my understanding, a low dose like that has more benefits than drawbacks, short-term. The numbers weren't so bad that Doc thought I was at risk for a blood clot, but we're not taking any chances until I'm back at 100%.

Then I saw the massive JJG WoT reply, and wondering "JJG. Dude. Why take the bait, mate ?"

Numerology is a crock of shit.

Edit: @bob - Another aspect of my baaaad, is that I had not truly appreciated that you had changed your avatar descriptor to "friendly"... so I had been thinking of the older and more assertive side of your avatar.. which might not be a part of your current persona.. so there is that lil excuse that I would like to employ, too.. still I am not trying to take away from that I might have been a bit too presumptive in my name-dropping of you.

lulz. Yeah, I thought "friendly" was a bit more of a reasonable update to my text than the former "power-top"; what Rick and I do in the bedroom is between us Wink

As for any prognostications I make regarding to BTC prices, I thought it's been well established by now that, while I do enjoy following the charts, I'm largely just pulling numbers out my ass based on my gut bacteria. Some of 'em are real stinkers. I have no idea what's going on, and I'm on the roller-coaster along with the rest of y'all.

Not selling a single satoshi at $20k. If I wanted to sell @$20k would have sold back in 2017. Have to charge my "hodling fee" so I guess I'm selling some limited q-ty at $50k at least.  Cool

I couldn't have foreseen Rick's misery in 2017.

Times and plans change. It's for a good cause, and I don't feel too bad parting with the required BTC @ $20k. Unplanned things happen, and just glad that I got into this corn stuff when I did, to have an opportunity to make life easier on the both of us.

On principle, I can also rationalize taking profit at $20k. Not that I want to, but, if it allows for our "Happily Ever After" sooner-than-later, it's gotta be done.

You gots ur lil selfie a real problem, dude (using expression figuratively because I know that you are not "the dude") .

FWIW, Ganja has been a daily staple in my life for longer than I would like to admit. The extreme sickness I experienced in December (fully recovered BTW. Hematologist/Oncologist appt the other day shows me back at 100% with everything in their normal ranges) prompted me to quit entirely until the followup with my GP next week.

Yesterday marked 29 days since I quit all intake, and a home drug test still showed me testing positive for THC.

Will re-test in a couple weeks. It's a mind-over-matter thing for me to test clean before deciding to partake again. Pleasantly surprised that I did not experience a single withdrawal symptom, but I'll write that off as a bonus side-effect of the other meds I'm taking, as a mitigating factor.

So much for taking 28 days to clear out of your system.

#random Retirement is strange. I'm primarily living off of Bitcoin-funded fiat investments, that pay me out monthly over the next couple decades or so, and I find it highly amusing that I'm using portions of those disbursements to re-buy corn-dip.

Absolutely surreal watching a game of Plague Inc. play out in real-time.

I'm starting to get the fear. Supposed to be traveling to Amsterdam, and Ireland in April.

I actually spoke to Rick about this, and mentioned "this one dude on Bitcointalk, who is probably the only guy I would ever break OpSec for, and grab drinks with, will likely be 30 minutes away from us." Believe me I thought about it, but we just won't have the time. Only in town for the one evening, and I already have plans to spend it with my dearly-departed friends' family, and drop off the nephew, who we'll be toting with us, before Rick and I depart for Ireland late-morning, the next day.

Will need to be some other time, brother Sad

Observing a nice and steady upward climb, presently at $8,867 USD/BTC. Also observing piddly short positions getting liquidated out of the way, on the way up.

Chill out and HODL strong, brothers.

An overall green day in the traditional markets is nice to see as well.

Probably just drive ourselves to the restaurant, and ditch the Uber; end up in a restaurant filled with coughing people eating tacos with hot-sauce, sneezing pico de gallo everywhere.

Sheeit.

I picked a bad time to have anxiety/depression.

"State of Emergency" declared in Dallas County, Gov. Abbott declares "State of Disaster" for Texas, and Rick wants fucking TexMex.

Yeah, our pad is pretty much our "forever" home. I love it. I suggested the same thing. "Hey, just have broheim come to our place and we order in." and Rick is all like "What ? You don't want to go out now ?"

if your last post was true, losing several millions in this turmoil, why make your partner work at all?

We've always had a financially independent relationship. I only recently decided to rescue him from wage-slavery. It would be going against my future hedging of my BTC stash to liquidate $1M USD + tax obligations to realize that aim, at the current price.

Just because I *CAN* do something at this level, doesn't mean I'm going to, if you catch my meaning.

Think I figured Italy out. They got a lot of social touching, including hugs and kisses where more civilized people respectfully bow or, in more barbaric countries, shake hands. Lot of old people, apparently. And, according to studies, only half of them wash their hands after going to the loo. So, yeah, no wonder it's spreading like crazy.

Was reading something about the prevalence of smoking in Italy contributing to the higher infection rates... basically came to the conclusion that by being a smoker, it makes you way more susceptible to infection and bad after-effects.

Why would you take profit at 20K? So far, every time after we broke through the ATH of the previous cycle, we blasted right through it. Don't be the guy who put up a several K BTC wall at 267$ USD back in late 2013.

To clarify, I wasn't going to make a block sale @ $20k. I know it's going to blow right through $20k like a hot knife through butter when the time comes - Just saying, not considering taking any more profits until we're around $20k USD/BTC.
