I came up with an original plan using an underlying sigmoid function to work out the adoption curve followed by a cyclical function to calculate the base valuation, then a function tan^-1 to model the s-curve, and reached my final figure using a sin function to model a cycle. After factoring in for latency, I then plugged that into an infinite loop and a RNG. After dividing by 666 I came up with a target price of $333.
So yeah $333.

It reminds me very much of what happened at 300s. Just like then, as long as 400 holds confidence will build and the price will eventually rise again. And repeat at 500.
soon, all the Chinese will be jacking off to sub3000 bitcoins and we'll be right back up to 460 where we will remain for quite a while.

Can't he say what he thinks?
I don't see anything wrong in what he's saying. BTC is really shady he's right on that. Users don't have any correct informations you can't deny that.
So after spending countless years of his life working with Bitcoin, a few months after his departure Bitcoin is dead? Please.
If you defend such a person you are not any better than him. Bitcoin is not that shady, especially not since there's no Silk Road equivalent. Stop your gibberish.
I don't understand the hate, he's someone who worked on btc and thinks it's a failure and warned people about it, is it a reason to hate him?
Because he's a paid bulldog who backstabbed the community with this article. Should we love him for it?
not really news ... we already knew hearn is a bitcoin hater and saboteur, except for the NYTimes readers who will no doubt lap up Hucksters Hearn's soundbites for the sheeple
That is the problem of this story, NYTimes and the sheep that are going to believe this nonsense or defend him. It has already reflected itself on the price (incl. news about Cryptsy).
Seems we won't be able to discuss. You don't seem to understand the position of someone who is not informed. Most people don't have the time to spend hundreds of hours to understand exactly how everything works and who's in charge of what.
"You're not better than him if you defend Hearn" You don't understand. I don't know who he is, he just doesn't seem like somebody bad.
Bitcoin IS incredibly shady in the sense that normal people have no idea of what's happening, what's currently developped, who's in charge of what, what can or can't be done etc...
I'm not talking about drugs or anything that something else. I'm talking about how btc works and will evolve. You're all talking about "bitcoin core" "bitcoin XT" "forks" and things like that. I've no idea of what it is, and I'm an engineer which means i got some basis in science... So btc IS shady in the sense that a small percentage of users actually understand it.
He shouldn't have declared bitcoin as dead. And should NOT have said that he's selling all his bitcoins. There are good reasons why people in control are not allowed to do that on exchanges. Everything else he can vent as much as he wants
Yeah, he kinda ends up sounding like a little crybaby. Unprofessional at least.

Paul Vernon had at least one contact in the Secret Service intelligence community. That Coindesk story says Cryptsy had a relationship with the former Secret Service agent Shaun Bridges who was sent to prison for money laundering. It will be interesting finding out what the relationship was.
The post also claimed that the company had a prior relationship with former Secret Service Agent Shaun Bridges tied to "an unrelated matter". Bridges was sentenced to five years and eleven months in federal prison in December following his conviction on obstruction of justice and money laundering charges.
Paul Vernon
Intelligence Analyst
US Army
August 1991 – February 1999 (7 years 7 months)
Analyzed and disseminated intelligence data to Corps Commanders. Held a Top-Secret (SCI) Military Clearance. I routinely gave system and Intelligence briefings to 2, 3, and 4 Star Generals which would be directly used in their decision making process.

Sounds like a coffee or something
If you wanna stay in Bitcoin, that's what it's gonna be called for a while. Will probably drop the "Classic" bit naturally, like with Coke.
After rabies finishes off all the smallblock Luddites.
Probably Core should rename themselves Classic. That makes more sense. And maybe the current Classic could rename themselves to Core! Confuse everyone even more! That should really make the price plummet!

It's called Classic because it is was inspired by Satoshi's scaling solution. And is in keeping with his vision for a Peer-to-Peer Electronic
Cash System.
Unhunh.

Maybe Hearn's article was a needed shock to get things rolling. After that, surprisingly fast consensus is pretty much reached. Now that "heretic/narcissistic(?)" Hearn is out, perhaps devs can work more easily together.
If this dubious consensus was reached due to the likes of a character such as Hearn, I would find this consensus rather questionable and untrustworthy just as Hearn himself is rather questionable and untrustworthy.

Bitcoin "Classic"! What a stupid name. Logically there's nothing really classic about it. They should have spent a little more time thinking up a proper name at least.
Seems that Satoshi disagrees with you:
https://github.com/bitcoin-classicI'm afraid that Classic has nothing to do whatsoever with this "classic", so no he doesn't disagree with me.

The routing problem is further complicated because they don't only want to route transactions. They want to take a slice and collect a fee for doing so. This is a fee that will come directly out of the pockets of miners and will make Bitcoin less secure.
Blockstream hobbles bitcoin, gives it a crutch and then tries to take credit that it can walk. If Core loses their position as reference client developers, they should try a career in government.
Greg would make a pretty good banker. Why not give it a try??
Looks like he's making the same mistakes bankers made in the early 2000s as well. Introducing products he doesn't understand and/or doesn't understand the consequences of.
Ha! Bankers don't make mistakes - they still make money either way. And Greg is just realising that he doesn't really need to 'sell' anything now - the deal is done and dusted.
But what I cant get with is the fact that he knows he has no solution to routing, but is willing to pretend otherwise. Seems a dangerous strategy. But maybe its the only game left. And it seems to be working - getting Horizons and AXA onboard ( albeit with a lot less money than they are letting on) is no mean achievement. But it will be the death of Bitcoin as the vast majority of its community understand it to be.
Satoshi might post his opinion backed by his PGP key to stop his creation mutating into something he opposes. His voice could change attitudes faster than anything else. Most of the community would back his opinion because he is the instigator of the Bitcoin project. If he's alive he must be following what's happening to Bitcoin.
He has probably expressed his opinion many times, but was banned for 'trolling core'.
I don't think so. I doubt he would approve of subversive altcoin garbage like "Classic" and the chumps behind it.

Accordingly, I still have troubles understanding when the blocksize and/or scaling issues are presented as "an emergency."
Do you understand the principle of non-parallel lines in a two-dimensional cartesian coordinate system?
No. I don't understand: "non-parallel lines in a two-dimensional cartesian coordinate system."
It's may sound fancy, but it's very simple. This is a (logarithmic) graph of the number of Bitcoin transactions over time:
The interactive version is here:
https://oxt.me/chartsThe blue line is the number of transactions in a given month. In December and January there were 6 million transactions per month. The maximum per day that can be processed is about 250,000, so that's 7.5 million per month. To visualize that maximum, you could draw a horizontal line in the graph at 7,500,000. As you can see, the growth in transactions is pretty steady, in this logarithmic graph it's almost a straight line (so the growth is actually exponential). If you extrapolate that line to the future, it will cross the horizontal line at 7,500,000 tx at some point. In fact, if two lines don't run parallel, you know for sure they will cross each other sometime.
I haven't felt any significant delay because usually the transaction will show up with zero confirmations within 5 minutes or so then I can rest assured that it is coming to me.
When blocks become persistently full, you will never be able to safely assume that a zero-conf transaction will ever get included in a block.
And that is a fact.
O.k. I will accept your representation. Currently, we seem to be a long ways away from the "fact" that you are asserting to be coming about, and from my understanding, there are several potential bandaid solutions in place until a possible more permanent solution is agreed upon or implemented by coup de at...
It will only take a few more months before the lines will cross. I wouldn't call that a long way off. And rolling out a hard fork takes time. So yes, time is running out fast.
Andre#, have you developed a sense of humor yet or are you just as "spot on" as ever?

You can't win, smallblockers. It doesn't matter who you DDoS or what other dirty tricks you pull, when the market tanks, the miners will switch to big block code.
From the graph Andre pointed at, I don't see the point of going to 2Mb.
It seems like growing at 2Mb won't change anything, it'll grant only a few months/years of time but not much more.
You're right, it only buys us 1 year extra time. That's why the 8 MB proposal made more sense. However, in that one year SegWit can become fully operational, which will allow another year of growth. Hopefully, those two years will be enough to implement the Lightening Network -- or some other solution to the scaling problem.

We're already seeing blocks fill up on this pump. I'm curious as to how a rally can be sustained when confirmation times take hours.
Wouldn't that increase the intensity of the pump? Getting fiat to the exchanges to buy bitcoins is slow because of the antique clearing houses, but at least it is constant delay. Bitcoins sent to the exchanges on price rices are mostly meant to be sold. Having this delayed would only increase the pump right?
Whales who determine the bitcoin price will just increase their transaction fee to whatever price to be in the next block, so I don't think full blocks really have an effect to either direction of the price.
If you had varying water pressure at your house, where one day you had a torrent and the next day a trickle, would that make you want to buy stock in the water company?

I'm here because I bought in $220 which was already a lot IMHO.
A higher BTC price will make it an elite thing
Bitcoin is cheap at only $.65 per mBTC.
It's actually a dirt cheap penny stock at 0.065 cent per bit.

hows the halvening ?? i still think bitcoin is going to drop after halvening . it might go up in the long term after some real growth and the effects from halvening, but short term i think drops because of scaling issue and the competence comes into question and effects from all that . bitcoin seems a bit risky to me atm . i'm still hodling tho . not adding to it though. staying out and watching.. good luck trading everyone .

Why is the price still dropping?
Main reason of falling rate of BTC is halving. People still thinking that after halving price of bitcoin will goes down as it will hard to mine as rewards will be half than now!
People are selling their bitcoins so as per demand and suply formula price of bitcoins is going down.
Keep selling
Lets see if we can get anymore coins for low $600's.
Last block mined so long ago . . . 2016-07-09 17:20:24 Is it because miners are going offline?

$254.90 on Stamp. The bears are out in force by the looks of it, I'm feeling pretty negative at the moment, still going to HODL as usual obviously, I understand bitcoin is a long term investment but this XT bull shit with Hearn & Gavin is causing the price to tank imo. Weak hands are panicking & getting out
This price dip is nothing compared to the crash that would happen sometime next year when Core Dev allows the 1MB to cripple legitimate user tx throughput.
Wonderful prediction by the BU , Classic and XT crowd. 6+ months of "full blocks" and the price has been steadily appreciating and no "tx fee death spiral"

You got that right.

CG is counting on people focusing on a pre-conceived value to take advantage. We're not done yet, in my opinion. This is only preparation for a bull trap. Getting hopes up and waiting a while for buy orders to fill before pouncing once again to correct to where it should be. My opinion.

As long as the banksters can keep a lid on bitcoin price via shorting, stimulating infighting and division (BU support) and meanwhile pump up Ripple and Ethereum they are winning.
The useful idiots over at BU have convinced themselves they are 'fighting the good fight' by blocking progress and encouraging bitcoiners to defect to etheruem to express their 'disapproval' at some unspecified bogeymen like 1MB4EVA. Bankster supporters are luvving it and jump on to fuel the fires of hate, suspicion, FUD and division at every opportunity, giving the useful idiots the moral and 'popular' support through a sock-puppetry crusade. See adam's cartoons for example, these are modern political satire masquerading as comic fun memes but add exactly zero to technical solutions for bitcoin tx capacity increases.
"Useful idiots" lol
I just can't believe this Unlimited/Classic stuff was pulled back out of the garbage again. Does seem kinda premeditated.

so LTC + Segwit scaling = Triple the price
may we *please* now go ahead already and do BTC + Segwit scaling = Triple the price ?
does that make sense to everyone yet ?
you pesky moon kids shouldn't be asking for positive developments. they know better and what's best for all of us is to sit doing nothing for the rest of eternity.

Are you referring to any recent news in particular, or just communicating a pure wish? hahahahaha
Haha.
'Past Performance Is No Guarantee of Future Results' and 'high volatility' is very applicable to adam's posts. IOW, a real bitcoiner.
I'm not sure if I understand your post or your position about this whole question regarding the short to medium prognosis for bitcoin?
I personally believe that in the end, some variation of the core's vision is going to prevail, and surely I hope that it includes some kind of incorporation of segwit - but even if seg wit does not get incorporated in the coming years, bitcoin still is in a decent place in terms of storage of value and security and various kinds of ways to control your own wealth from capital controls and even some kinds of abilities to do quasi-anonymous transactions in a pretty secure way.
The BU people are just sad to see the writing on the wall and to understand that they were just useful idiots after all.

I wonder how Russia reacts with that attack? Russia'n leaders are assholes they are ok with that disgusting poison gas attack...
There is no Assad launched "chemical attack". He's not a fucking idiot. He knows the (((deep state))) and the UN are itching to invade him and would give no excuse for them to do so. Who were the first people to report it? The Jews in Israel of course. The same pepole whose intelligence unit, the mossad, has the official slogan of "
BY WAY OF DECEPTION". It's another gulf war con job by the Jews claiming "look, weapons of mass destruction!".
There was a fraudulent false flag attack in Russia days before trying to soften up Russian public opinion to go fight some Arabs. Israel's make believe cult mythology also tells them that they own 2/3rds of Syria:

It would cost them if some bigger whale came and ate their order whole, before taking the price considerably higher. But I suspect a lot of times these market makers have some sort of inside information from the exchanges wrt potential heavy buyers.
very interesting about the walls. i am no expert but i usually see these types of walls be placed deep (under other orders). so if this is true that these walls are placed as "a mental barrier" then that explains it, you can easily use a bot to watch the market and cancel the order and place it deeper if you see some movement.(?)
Of course, that's what they do. It's obvious especially if you observe altcoin markets, where price moves faster. My guess is that the entity holding the wall is quite confident that there is nobody able to swallow him in one bite so he keeps the wall close to the spot price.
The "wall" when placed, is meant to be eaten by design, eventually. At a certain point it just evaporates.
I think its usually the exchanges themselves, knowing some big money just came in. Seen it happen way too much.
Does the "mental barrier" actually affect anyone? lol

I have a feeling that bitcoin will go up to 1400... what do you guys think ?
I have a feeling you need to be mentally insane to buy bitcoin with a $300 spread with China and $100 spread between ScamFinex and everywhere else. You see Adam pop in and out of here cheerleading the carnage but you know damn well he's not buying right now lol. This market is a trainwreck. What the hell am I even looking at? A $20-$25 spread used to mean "welp, that's it for this pump, time for the crash". Now it's just Bernie Madoff/Gox style scam spreads everywhere and people don't even seem to care.
Can't wait to see what excuse the exchanges come up with when this thing blows up:
You are perfectly right.
Similar situation full of disbalances however did not prevent bubble back in 2013
and majority of investors here have gambling streak. So the rise will only run its course until it exhausts itself on major resistance or Finex goes bankrupt. Whatever comes first. 1500 is reasonable price to close our position and wait for the reckoning.

Post 18931203 (copy this link) (by orpington) (scraped on 2020-04-04_Sat_15.09h):
i read now the last replies regarding the fees and how long you wait etc etc...
i maybe live in another world because the maximum i wait when deposit to exchange or send back etc is never more than 1 hour about....
and i never have problem to pay some small amount...
the question is .. where do we go from now regarding the price??
With the current fee fiasco I suspect we are going down.
Which fiasco? I am trading all day long and have several feeds open... Haven't read anything about a "fiasco". Source?
No particular source... I am just an average user that is having huge problems getting the BTC transferred from a wallet to an exchange. That is a fiasco, and from what I have read many other people have the same problem.
Ok, I thought you were refering to something new.
Also I wouldn't consider it a "fiasco". I mean, are you sure the problem isn't in the exchange end?
Have you checked the transaction in blockchain explorer to see if it is already confirmed but the exchange is not acknowledging it?
Did the transaction include a proper fee? Unless you set it up manually, it should be ok though.
Anyways, yes, Bitcoin needs to solve the scaling problem asap. But that is already "discounted" in current price. Once that get solved expect the price to skyrocket.
All the transactions show in bitcoin.info as Unconfirmed. I have been raising the fees manually because my wallet was sending 0.0001 for all transactions.
In my latest transaction I sent 0.25 with 0.0005 (240 satoshi/byte) but when this gets processed it gets added to another 0.5 BTC and then the fee per byte drops to 96??
see the tx:
https://blockchain.info/tx-index/44af690b488daae59c2ca4bd055a6dc29378e11e51853de4e0763e72f8dd3e3eYa. This one has a low (96 sat/B) fee, and 3 inputs so it might be unexpectedly delayed. The following one with the right fee (~220 Sat/B) will not confirm because it tries to spend the unconfirmed output from the delayed one.
edit: just saw that the one you posted has 3 unconfirmed inputs too! You seem to have a basic misunderstanding of how this all works.
edit2: Ahh. Do you have 'spend unconfirmed change' set in your wallet? That, and a bit of impatience, might have caused this chain of unconfirmed transactions (plus the low fees paid earlier).
a different kind of fiasco it seems.

i really never see the logics of this forum...
1. yesterday i posted exactly 20 minutes before the dump, that it felt like the dump was gonna happen in matter of mins / hours.
2. i even asked for other peoples opinions about it
3. majority wanted to hung me for not following the "to the moon" thing
4. Dump happened (and the "denial" phase kicked in for most fanbois here)
Now:
second bottom hit, pretty near same levels, all signals indicate that most likely some rebound incoming with some price consolidation time... during the weekend. This looks like the most plausible scenario to me, by looking at charts.
Of course, everything can happen, it can go lower. But in the short term, and by that i mean -> "this weekend" and probably longer,
i see it stable and breaking upwards.So, if you are a noob and you are reading these, beware of all these "bitcoin going to 500$" and "these weekend will drop below 2000$".

It depends on your attitude to Bitcoin. JimboToronto finds it relaxing, he just keeps buying the dips and hodling. Some of us go for days without sleep watching the charts, or set alarms to wake us up for big price movements. At the same time JimboToronto misses out a few whole days of even checking the price.
It also depends on when you got in. Mr. Toronto is a man with relaxation baked in due to his timing. He's already been vindicated. I'm sure newcomers will too eventually but if you're a relatively recent arrival you'll still be in the flitting stage.
If you move to the vindication stage then you start fretting about becoming worth too much and whether you should cash out. Then you start suspecting your cat of looking for your private keys. Then you finish up drooling while wearing a hockey helmet.
I've just had this whole issue creating new paper wallets. Cat in the room, curtains not drawn, Xbox in the room with a Kinect plugged in. I am pretty sure my neighbour was washing his pick up truck outside too.
May have to create more. I'm sure I heard his wife say the word key or something.
Washing the truck is always rather suspicious.

I don't trust anyone who washes vehicles. I let the dirt build up and then it usually comes off like a complete second skin when I have my next car crash. My latest was with a sheep. I won.
car washes - what a waste of good water.

Current Bitcoin transaction fee: $2.18

Let's do a peer to peer gold transaction. I'll pay you double spot for an ounce of gold on delivery. Let's see about those $0 transaction fees.
Here is my address.

I think you should also factor in some storage costs if you want a vault somewhere to keep it safe.
Who needs gold when you can have tungsten?

With all of the tungsten they are using to core gold bars the supply will eventually run out. Buy tungsten now!!! (or gold bars since they are the same thing)

Like I said before, bitcoin is a ponzi scheme created by "some guy". Gold and silver are a ponzi scheme created by *god. The latter is obviously going to be better.
I'll join.
I disagree.
Bitcoin is more like an economic bubble than a ponzi scheme per se. There is no one central authority people can charge or run after. It is also not fraudulent.
In most economic bubbles, there is no single person or group misrepresenting the intrinsic value.
Items traded in an economic bubble are much more likely to have an intrinsic value that is worth a substantial proportion of the market price. Therefore, following collapse of an economic bubble (especially one in a commodity such as real estate) the items affected will often retain some value, whereas an investment that is part of a Ponzi scheme will typically be worthless (or very close to worthless).
The latter is only better in so far as you have physical possession of your precious metal, which is at the same time, both its strength and its weakness. While you could argue that you could carry $50,000 USD worth of gold on your person, it's far easier to "carry" $5 million worth of bitcoin.
It's good to have both. I'll be getting myself some bullion soon.
Absolutely, in the final analysis, best to have both.
That way you "probably" can't lose.

Hi everyone,
I want to ask something...
I am trying to understand And analyse the charts/price of bitcoin.
Sure i Did more research And watch all day the charts for my own.
Reading many topics for speculations what others also try to understand bitcoin.
But what i Dont understand is.. the price swings like now whats happening on (kraken).
We have a natural growth what Goes up, Ofcourse i understand also that this is bitcoin.
Many told me that this price going up And down like 1% - 15% on a price around €2400 is normal.
Yes Ofcourse its manupilation by big investers, But How is iT possible that iT can decline in 5 minutes
So much € if its growing natural in price.
Someone who can explain with details please beceause i want to understand And
Correct me if i am wrong Ofcourse i want to learn about bitcoin.
Thank you for aswering about what i said.
Really big manipulation by really big investors. Thats all.

Market is almost entirely controlled by one entity (Bitmain). Whenever the price plummets to key resistance points, a single market rigger puts up a $2 million wall to try and block it from going lower. Coincidence? I'm just amazed people are trying so hard to prop up this bubble. There was plenty of warning and time to sell, so it seems like the only people who would put forth so much effort to prop it up are the Chinese mining cartel.

Average joes are stupid, they don't have an opinion. And you can certainly bet that they won't suddenly start buying bitcoins when the halving comes.
The only purpose of Bitcoin is a hedge against legacy financial systems imploding. If they were stable and functioned, there would be no reason to switch. Since the legacy financial systems are mathematically doomed, a good bit of transfer of wealth is likely to move to Bitcoin. You're basically front running the transfer before the average Joe is forced to change, like in Venezuela how they became super interested in Bitcoin as their currency implodes.

after bip141 locks in there is another 2016 blocks grace period before it goes live on the network ... maybe around August 21 which is dun-dun-dun ... solar eclipse day over North America!
coincidence!? i think not.
Yeah, but who cares about going active, right?
What significance does going active have?
Isn't the locking in the important event?
not so fast young padawan
... until it goes active then we will never really experience a block with segwit transactions in it such that it could be rejected, split the chain or be accepted and cause no forks (as per the signalled intentions). Potentially, if a majority of the miners were just spoofing the signal that they were segwit-enabled but in fact were preparing for a chain-split attack then this would be the time it would be performed ... very unlikely but we wont know for sure until that day that segwit transactions are committed to a block and that block is committed to a chain and that chain with the new consensus rules demonstrated does not split the network.
My bet is satoshi is watching over us from on high and the
segwit activation and total eclipse August 21 is not a coincidence!!
I would love to get more into that. Has anyone produce any literature about the eclipse and btc subject?
This is so intriguing, cuz I do believe in this kind of stuff
Definitely all kinds of shit might be going down for the eclipse - so watch out!

I get a little nervous when MSM starts actually turning pro-bitcoin. I always think, "Why are they suddenly promoting it? What's in it for them?"
Congratulations for being the only non-idiot in the thread. Bitcoin is a tool for them to try and keep people out of the highley strained metals market only being propped up temporarily by rehypothecation while also helping acclimate people into the de-cashing of society and integration into a cashless society control grid. They'll allow bitcoin to go up a bit then mercilessly implode it and claim "Oh, so sad, that darn bitcoin is just not dependable and was used by too many launderers and criminals anyway. We'll have to issue a government coin that's much more dependable with built in KYC so people won't lose money!"
Too bad for them this plan doesn't work. Western investors are literally mentally retarded and metals demand drops off a cliff when the price is low while demand is huge in the rest of the world like China right now.
Westerners always jump in to FOMO buy at the top and don't buy anything at the bottom.
I'm afraid this metals shit will never pan out, sorry. And I actually hold a fair amount of physical PM's. Good thing I got into bitcoin.
Kind of irresponsible to be recommending dead-in-the-water metals. Too much of a long shot unless you're praying for an apocalypse.
Much better to get into bitcoin, turn a profit, then buy a few coins and bars for fun but they'll never really amount to much anyways.
Not sure why you push gold and silver so much. Its kind of laughable. What a shitty investment atm. Price will probably drop lol.

Hi all
So with a small amount of BTC I want to do margin trading on Bitfinex. Now Im new to trading and maybe this is not the right place for this sort of question but has anyone had any experience doing this on Bitfinex? I am slightly confused about limit stop trailing trades etc. For example I deposit 0.05 BTC into margin account and want to go LONG on BTC so I buy 0.15 BTC worth using margin trading. Now if I want to automatically hace the position closed say once the price reaches a certain target how would I do this? Also is it possible to have a sell price set should the price start to go down and thus protecting me from too much losses. You know before margin account gets liquidated and I lose the 0.05 BTC.
Sorry if this is not the right place for this question. Then again this is more BTC related than some discussions on politics and metals. Not that I dont enjoy those I think it is a good part of the conversation as long as BTC is the main subject but I know some of you people dont like anything off-topic... including trading I guess.
Either way any input is much appreciated.
Just set a limit order to sell that same amount at whatever price above.
And just set a stop order to sell that same amount at whatever price below

I'm sorry, but you got this thing wrong. You cannot easily shutdown Bitcoin without taking down the whole Internet.
Yea right, even if you change the ports, you're not using randomized ports, and even if so, the ISPs can still detect who is running bitcoin nodes or other activity on their network and just say "sorry, we're turning off your connection because we do not support people laundering money with bitcoin", or whatever other excuse they want to make. It's mostly a stupid argument since governments are far more likely to eradicate bitcoin through legislation than by pseudo-govt entities like Google, Comcast, or AT&T doing it under a corporate umbrella, but still, corporations can put a big dent into bitcoin viability if they want.
Well, I for one do appreciate that you are just trying to "save us all" lol

Strictly speaking, bitcoin with segwit is the bastard child because segwit introduces changes to the code that dramatically alter the way it works. Bitcoin cash is more like your purebred, a continuation of the line with minor changes to improve performance. That's not to say that a good cross-breed won't outperform a thoroughbred however. That remains to be seen

It looks to me more like a Litecoin fork than Bitcoin one
Irrelevant to what I was saying, but that is probably just due to the recent difficulty drop and the fact that it's currently 125% more profitable to mine BCH. I'm sure a few miners have switched to maximise the returns on their hardware
Nah, BitCHcoin is not bitcoin - only bitcoin is bitcoin. Bitcoin with SegWit is bitcoin. Useless BitCHcoin is merely BitchCoin. lol

I'm surprised BCH is still holding up so well. Will be interesting to see what happens after all of this drama is over and when it isn't being pumped to stay relevant
I hope for more opportunities for free coin in the future (assuming price won't crash).
BitCHcoin holding up so well 'cause she's a real BitCH!
I coined the term "BitCH" coin first and I am going to charge 1 mBitCH every time someone uses that word or ticker. I will go as far as Craig Retard White and going to file a patent for it.
I was afraid the charge would be more something like 10 BitCHes.

Time shall tell...
Some muddle-headed millionaire forked off an alt. What's all the excitement about? I don't get you sometimes.
I get that you don't get me. Then again, you don't get Bitcoin Cash. Perhaps you are too locked into this echo chamber?
It is not that 'some muddle-headed millionaire forked off an alt'. Rather, a significant fraction (absolute magnitude unknown) got tired of arguing over the proper route forward for Bitcoin, and did something about it.
Better yet, several scant days into the project, all is going according to plan. That's where the excitement lies.
Though you did get a bonus of between 5% and 40%, depending upon when you hopped off. And you're complaining about it. I don't get you sometimes. XD
1. He is a muddle headed millionaire. He's also an egotistical megalomaniac, "I was the first investor", I'm the biggest shareholder", "I know about economic code", "homogeneous is another word for privacy", etc, etc.
2. What did this "significant fraction" do? Ah yes, congested the network with spam to drive transaction fees up, which the muddle headed clown then proceeds to blame the core team for, banging on about a horrible user experience.
3. All is going according to plan? What, coordinated pumps of BCC at the same time as dumping BTC to drive the price of the shitcoin up so they get more BTC for it? Great plan, excellent.
Whoosh. There it goes. Over your head.
Anyways....
Of course, I realized the implication was about Roger Ver. Here's the thing though. Roger had zero to do with the creation of Bitcoin ABC, which ended up the catalyst that kicked this big block initiative over the hump. Sure, he likes it, but
he was not -- and is not -- a driving force to its creation. This is a team effort. By a rather large team. Hence my comment about this here echo chamber.
I get that you're a really smart guy. But I still don't get it.
::le sigh:: I hope you and NewWorldCoiner aren't the same person. I assume not. Anyway...
My view of Bitcoin Cash is that it is simply Bitcoin with Bitcoin's most crippling flaw addressed. As such, I expect it to -- in not a lot of time -- become nearly-universally viewed as the One True Bitcoin.
I understand that others see things differently. But can you 'get' that -- given the hypothesis in the preceding paragraph as an axiom -- that this would be somewhat exciting?
How the hell is essentially creeping toward centralization being equated with addressing a "most crippling flaw"? lol

Yes, given the assumptions. Which, I agree, are debatable. The point remains that any 'changing of the guard' would be an abdication*. And hence, would not be merely an effort to overthrow the current devs with ones more malleable.

Just no. You couldn't be further from the truth. Not only am I not trying to destroy bitcoin, I am trying to save it. Hell, I am not even trying to destroy Bitcoin Segwit. Such a postulate would be ludicrous, as I hold more BTC than I could possibly make through 'normal' means such as my salary -- and I am within the USA 6%* top in that regard -- if I worked for the rest of my life.
*https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Household_income_in_the_United_States#Distribution_of_household_income_in_2014_according_to_US_Census_data
It is true that in my analysis, I find Bitcoin Cash to be superior to Bitcoin Segwit. For everyone. Except maybe those who have invested their reputation in core. And my statements are largely positive on BCH. But the only negative statements I make on BTC, are in relation to the manners in which it is lacking compared to BCH. And always truthful - at least to the best of my knowledge.

Full credit for having the vision and sticking to it through some long dark years.
I bought some AEON today for $2.45. Maybe if I hang onto that for 10 years it will also be worth $8k. It’s a Monero fork, equivalent to Litecoin.
Bitcoin is still your best bet. It's not too late to make a pisspot full of money just by holding Bitcoin.
When I bought in at $68 I felt like I'd already missed the boat. I was disappointed I hadn't learned of it 6 months earlier when I could have bought for less than a tenth of that. I really wished I'd found out about it when it was worth a few pennies.
Luckily, I realized how important Bitcoin was and didn't panic when it dropped to $50 after hitting $266. Instead I bought more.
Same thing during the long bear market following the Gox implosion. I kept buying all the way down and on every dip on the way back up. I amused myself through the tough times by sparring with Bitcoin-hating trolls like Notlambchop and Matthecat.
I shrugged off the loss of 50 coins to MtGox even though it raised the average cost of my other coins up to close to $200. I've kept buying the dips all the way up since then. Now my average cost is over $300 per. I'm still buying, except that now I'm buying a tenth of a coin at a time instead of ten at a time.
_____
I can see how some people feel it's too late to buy in. They said that at $30, again at $300 and again at $3000. They'll say it again at $30,000 but when John Mcafee avoids fellating himself on national television, people will be envious of those who bought for "only" $30k just as they are now envious of those who only paid triple digits. It's all relative.
_____
I really don't see any current altcoin having the potential for growth that Bitcoin has. It's open source, its network is the biggest computer force in history, and it has the advantage of being first.
The reason for the early success of Litecoin was that it extended the life of pre-ASIC mining equipment but most people mined it to buy Bitcoins.
Ethereum promised smart contracts but it was basically a scam on Vitalik Buterin's part to weasel other people out of their bitcoins by pre-mining and then holding the first ICO, payable in Bitcoin. Eventually the smart contract function will be added to Bitcoin via sidechains.
While there are some attempts at creating a revolutionary blockchain-based currency (especially in seeking anonymity) most are just lame me-too attempts.
IMHO only Bitcoin holds the potential to keep showing the gains we've seen these last 8-9 years. We may have missed the innovator stage of the adoption curve but we're still in the early-adopter phase. Just wait until we get to the early mainstream stage. It's not too far off.
Very well said. I entered at $200 and have to pinch myself every morning to check that I'm not still dreaming... Those reading your post will do good taking your advice.
So true. I got in at $14 and almost sold it all in disgust at $3. Luckily I didn't.
Wish I got in at $1 but whatever. Definitely still not too late.

The coin is oversold. why would people (or bots) sit on this thread and encourage noobs to buy it, when deep down even the hardest bull knows it's the end for now.
Would you recommend your grandma to buy at 8150 ? Please answer that question.
If it was 21 billion bitcoins, instead of 21 million bitcoins, would you consider a price of "8$" as expensive?
Yet it is the exact same thing as 8000 with a supply divided by 1000.
It's just that the average grandma can't even make distinctions between millions and billions, and how marketcap is calculated, so these things are outside her comprehension. It's that simple really. People who can't understand why bitcoin price is seemingly "high" will hand over their bitcoins for cheap. They'd do the same if they owned berkshire stocks - which are now close to 300k usd each, since they don't do stock splits and the quantity of stocks remains lower than other stocks.
yes in the current market it's very overpriced.
I agree. In fact I reckon your stash of BTC is only worth $0.10. You better sell them all to me now before the value drops lower.
Dude just wants the price to crash so he can get back in.
Don't let the over-leveraging crush you again this time!

Dash chart just hit a new ATH again. it's hard to sleep. I just stare at my nest egg growing. My understanding is that Even Duffield owns about 250,000 dash but runs no masternodes. Even if he did, that's not a lot different than Steve Jobs or Bill Gates controlling a company with stock ownership. at 1000 dash/node, he'd only control 250 nodes out of 4400.
He has the incentive to see his project succeed way more than Gavin or the blockstream guys.
I wish my new pet coin could level off so i could start sleeping again. It's weird blowing a thousand bucks on Chrsitmas presents and still going to bed way richer than when i started.

Did you also happen to notice it's from the same Bitfinex market manipulation as always? A single entity on a single exchange controlling the price all the way from $200. It wouldn't be so bad if one guy was running the biggest pump and dump mankind has ever seen, but when it's one single entity operating on the most fraudulent bitcoin exchange that exists, it kind of sends alarm bells.

$100,000 by the summer and $1,000,000 after the next halving in 2020 sounds totally unrealistic.

This is the "Gotta-scare-those-average-joes-away" and "See-I-told-ya-so-its-a-bubble-ponzi-scam" portion of the show.
Bitcoin is a cuckold movement. It's claimed to be decentralized yet it's entirely controlled by a couple companies like Bitmain and Blockstream - a corporation coin in other words. There's not many excuses people can make for Bitmain, but people are going to claim Blockstream is "decentralized" or some nonsense, or that it's a "benevolent dictatorship". I don't really care what you call it, it's still a technocracy and a technocracy is not decentralized.
If people are going to claim bitcoin requires a round table group to constantly adjust and make changes to it daily, then that already shows it was a scam from the start since it was a dictatorial technocracy by default that would eventually just be absorbed by TPTB that already exist. So the development/administrative side of bitcoin is designed to completely centralize into monopoly, while the mining side (PoW) is also designed to do the exact same thing. Anyone with any type of macro perspective is flat out lying if they claim it's possible to create a decentralized digital currency. Their inevitable evolution will always be centrally administered slave instruments. Gold and silver do not have these problems.
But how do the Jews fit into all of this?

They (people like Larry Summers and Bernanke) promote cryptocurrency to the goyim and tell you that you should buy it instead of gold and silver, duh. When the govt and jews (same difference in the US) both tell you to stay out of metals and buy cryptocurrency instead, that's about as big of a red flag as you can get.
I love the Jewish conspiracy stuff too. But I try not to fixate too much on it.
But I still think its a good idea to diversify into crypto though PMs are awesome too. Gotta make money to survive at least in the short run.

Conspiracy theory? The biggest IQ pass or fail test ever administered was during the Ron Paul presidential campaign where each candidate on stage spent almost the entire time span talking about what they were going to do for Israel while not even mentioning America at all HAHA. If people couldn't figure out what's going on from that alone, the average IQ of America must be closer to 70 or 80 than 100.
I never said it was a theory. Its a real conspiracy.

This is truly awesome. Very well written!
Didn't read it all yet, but the quote and it's conclusions "
So money at its most austere is simply a promise" was kind of bullshit. The real crux of the situation is that money is an imaginary or social construct humans use to try and gain leverage over one another, and so the further you abstract human trade away from barter, the bigger an immoral scam you have created. THIS is why only physical commodity currencies can be money, whether it's gold, silver, oil, wheat, or what have you. Anything that does not have some type of roots in the real world is a flat out scam because you're inherently trying to con other humans into accepting something of no value for a real world good of value.
you could just buy some bitcoin, wait a bit, then buy even more gold/silver and then contribute even more to weakening the Jewish bankster.

I'd ask you to do the math, but you may be too busy calling others stupid to be able to compute 6 into 12.

I meant stupid in the sense of it being a relatively useless and absolute dead end coin. In light of its inevitable future one would have to be stupid to actually have it and believe in it.

Fungibility ... means the object in reference can't just randomly transform from an elephant to a flamingo.
idonothinkthatwordmeanswhatyouthinkitmeans.png
Fungibility is simply the property that any unit of some substance is functionally equivalent to all other units of that substance.
Don't play stupid. You know damn well bitcoin is not fungible nor money by definition, and that an "evolving protocol" is also never going to be fungible even if you do mix the outputs. I bet you've also made conflicting statements before about segwit claiming that it's really a fork or something even though the wallets are technically compatible, thus fit within your definition of equivalence in fungibility.
If you assume each transaction type has completely different surface attacks vectors like attempting to turn segwit transactions into anyone can spend transactions or what have you, how could they possibly be fungible? This is the never ending cycle of a so called "evolving protocol". Just about nothing in it is fungible.
Yes, but just for fun, are fungi fungible?

As I understand, he has tried on several occasions, but he is always denied a visa.
It's like you guys think he's Dr. Evil or something. He was here in November for God's sake. Here's a picture we took together at SFO airport as "proof." Roger is a great human being and an awesome ally of Bitcoin.

You got it entirely backwards. The price never should have pumped this high in the first place so fast. The only reason it did was China and Russia attempting to ban bitcoin, which caused a big sell off, then the mostly single entity that controls the price and walls on Bitfinex and other exchanges had all those people dump onto his bids. So now that everyone is out of the market, he decided to take the ball and run with it and pump since he owns all the bitcoins from everyone dumping on him.
Then a few morons in the general public who know nothing about economics or trading decided to chase the pump because CNBC and other entities spammed about it. The only question is WHO is the single entity that has controlled bitcoin price all the way from $200 to $3000+ on Bitfinex? Is it some Chinaman or mining cartel like Bitmain, or the standard Goldman Sachs Jews operating behind the scene as always.

Yes, fuckem. Due to the bell curve, the only groups on earth that can really economically compete are whites and asians. Jews can as well, as evidenced by all their scams and fraud, but they're more of an evil cult of mixed origin than an actual race. Since most other groups besides whites and asians can't economically compete or build functional civilizations themselves, if you allow most other groups into your country, they will do one of two things:
1) Attempt to form special interest groups for their own benefit that advocates stealing from people and redistributing it to themselves (communism/socialism/etc) and then everything implodes anyway
2) Attempt to physically attack people to steal from them because those other groups can invent things like refrigerators and cars and they can't
The only solution is segregation. Whites and asians have to have their own homogeneous countries and everyone else has their own homogeneous countries as well, then 70 IQ Somalians only have to worry about competing with each other and not...Bill Gates. And whites or asians derive zero benefit from admitting these people into their countries in the first place, just liabilities.
"70 IQ Somalians" lol
Is that a shithole country?

They have an alternate scenario for debt... they'll say the current system is problematic and needs a "reset". During this "reset", a large portion of the debt will get erased, as long as citizens and countries accept a new global monetary system... the new monetary system will be a totally electronic one (centralized) so that everyone gets under a system of total surveillance and control, where cash doesn't even exist.
That scheme already failed and is obviously NOT going to happen. China and Russia refused to go along with it. You do know after Bretton Woods they had international agreements that individual countries cannot go into the gold market and just buy it up in bulk or monetize metals, yet that's exactly what Russia and China have been doing. Why do you think Russia is demonized? After 2008, the Russians and Chinese took off sprinting away from Bretton Woods and gave them the middle finger.
They are not buying up all those metals for no reason. Why do you think Trump constantly makes references to Andrew Jackson? Why do you think Trump's twitter says not once, but NUMEROUS times:
The Wolfowitz doctrine was a total failure (which is good) and you now live in a multi-polar world.

What is your plan for wiping out the Jews? Try another Hitler?
There's a Black Mirror episode about this. (spoiler alert) They give the military a brain implant to make the race of people with weaker genetics unknowingly look like zombies.
If you actually read my post, it has nothing to do with genetics, but the fact Judaism is really nothing more than an evil cult based on slavery.
But it's similar in that they are committing genocide like hitler. I think weak genetics was one of hitler's pitches. If you wanted to get the military to commit genocide, this is how you would do it.
If the whole many worlds theory of quantum mechanics interpretation is correct, then we live in a slice of universe where the equivalent of the Charles Manson cult was never arrested and went on to take over the world, except instead of the Manson cult, this evil cult is known as Jews.

At least this is flushing out the stupid altcoins. Bye bye alts, come back to Bitcoin.
Why would anyone come back to Bitcoin...? So we can wake up tomorrow to $50 fees because one group of miners can manipulate the fee market that much. I'm sure the trash alt markets (which are most) will be flushed, but the "real" alt markets are still strong and will continue to grow stronger during this shit show.
Bitcoin needs to scale to at least make it more costly and more risky for those who want to spam pool for profit.
I'm getting all types of calls "Why is Bitcoin going down?"... I just remind them that $50 fees are NOT the future and this is the markets slow reaction to the shit we dealt with in December 2017.

... if 10k doesn't hold we'll probably go back and test 5k support ... or maybe lower like 2500 area needs some backing and filling also
it'll be cathartic if we dive that low ... like a whale diving to get rid of all the parasites ... btc has sure built up it's fair share of those during this last run ... alts, ICOS, "blockchain" charlatans and straight out conartists are everywhere
Quoted for comedic relief.... hahahahahahahaha
When I first read MOA's post, I thought the same thing, but since generally speaking, MOA is a very reasonable poster, I thought that it was not a problem to leave him to get away with a few exaggerations here or there - outside scenarios or otherwise "bullshit", as you tagged such propositions.
My view is that breaking below $10k will cause a pretty decent chance for $9,300; however, there is still going to be decent sized buying support at each $1,000 level - including $8k and $7k that must be broken through before getting anywhere near anything approaching inevitable lower price points....
I do think that if we do happen to get below, about $6,666 (chosen for additional comedic effect), then at that point $5k and even spiking down to $3k has a decent chance - yet on the other hand, if it takes us a few months before we are even able to get down to $6,666, then at that point, $6k would become a very likely double bottom... and we's not be going below dat... without a really BIG ASS battle.
I think sub $10,000 is obviously possible. All the way down to $2,500 though? Near impossible for me buddy, too many people would be having a feast on coins valued at around $4000 - $5000.
I'm still waiting for the double digits I was promised here back in 2014. Is 2018 the year?
$2500 probably not - - - $4000 .....maybe

Bolded text is what I am indeed seeing in this whole crypto crazy world. People who had no idea about what a bitcoin is, suddenly become expert traders who can distinguish between a good and a bad crypto coin. I've seen people losing their savings to gamble on tokens, coins and ICOs.
I'm on the train but a part of me is feeling a bit(coin) train sick. And by the way, thanks for the energy consumption insights
The ugliest truth of bitcoin is that it just isn't useful in any legal fields. Sure it's useful in black markets, but this usefulness is a ticking time bomb before laws will end this. Greed is represented here by the notion that very little people actually seem to care about this. Everyone are solely concentrated on how much higher they want to sell their bitcoins and practical usefulness is rarely asked. Most know a lot about the price of bitcoin, in the same time knowing nothing about the value of bitcoin.
Promises of easy riches will always attract the worst among people. Those who are greedy enough to desire wealth, but who are lazy and stupid enough not to actually be able acquire it. These are the people who have strong desire for wealth, while knowing that they won't ever be able to achieve it in a productive way. They are the ones who are capable in selling their grandmother for bigger gains, because they know that they probably won't get many chances in life.
My guess is that this ugly phase of the crypto world will eventually end together with bitcoin. Total crash of bitcoin would finally disillusion people from finding easy shortcuts to riches here. Only those would remain who are able to work with this market more, then with a "buy low, sell high" routine. The rest will run off to new motivational classes and marketing schemes to find new shortcuts for easy riches.
I have faith in the cryptoasset market in general, but it has to mature quicker or else it will create a big mess.
Looks like we have a communist.
I'm a pure blooded capitalist, but with things like ethics, conscience and a sober mind. Bitcoin has little to do with the idea of capitalism, where efficiency is an important pillar. One of the most important dreams of a typical bitcoiner is wealth re-distribution. They dream that bitcoin will eventually replace central banking, putting them into position of wealth and power, so they can sit on their ass for the rest of their life, while the deflationary value of their currency will even make them richer while they're doing the sitting. To me, this reminds me the illusions that the Bolsheviks had. Talking about vanquishing the evil rich, but only thinking about re-distribution of wealth from other pockets to own pockets. Without actually thinking about the practical issues involved in running a country and drowning in the illusions of personal worth instead. As you can see, I'm not even a fan of communists..

I agree it is the first most simplistic, and it's quite hard for it to deviate from its original consensus plan - a store of value, peer-to-peer electronic cash system that has an in-built decentralised transaction history with high-tech-class security. Nothing more should be expected from it, other than for a scaling function to accommodate mainstream usage; because, I think that's the only thing the developers didn't factor in during the early development phase. But for stability and predictability only a centralised system can achieve such regulatory benchmark.
I think that the development of bitcoin shows genius in software development, but not so much genius in financial implementation. Bitcoin is innovative and complex in the software perspective, but it is childish and silly in financial perspective. Modern economy needs a lot more then bitcoin is able to offer as an practical tool.
The system will always be centralized around something. The software development of bitcoin is centralized around specific people, and the financial markets of bitcoin are centralized around specific organizations and people. As long as there are people, there will always be natural centralization of systems around people who can do things that most others can't. This is not something that should be fought by itself.
honestly, what the fuck are you going on about anyways, and why?
