BUT not all dl are created equal. Mass appeal is not what Sibos and Hackspace are about. You might not see a mass dl as a result, but the buying power (Sibos) and nerdiness (hackspace) of the dl-er is more important. Higher investment in bitcoin and adoption rate per dl, respectively.

Title: Re: Sibos bump leading to Hackspace bump last 10 days of september rally Post by: Technomage on September 21, 2011, 02:20:11 PM The download volume graph is a bit deceptive because one has to take into account the fact that there has not been a new Bitcoin client release for months. Before August there were old and new users downloading the client, during August and September it's mostly new users.
When the new 0.4 client with built-in encryption is released, I bet the download count jumps significantly and stays up for a while. As for Google trends, that isn't looking good. But just like the transaction count and everything else, I see those indicators bottoming out very soon, just like the price (which possibly has already bottomed).

Title: Re: Sibos bump leading to Hackspace bump last 10 days of september rally Post by: deepceleron on September 21, 2011, 04:02:42 PM Look who else is showing up at Sibos:
Antonio Benjamin, Global Chief Technology Officer, Citi Uday Goyal, Founder, Anthemis Group SA Shamir Karkal, CFO, Banksimple Darrell MacMullin, Managing Director of PayPal Canada, PayPal Venessa Miemis, Social Technologies Researcher, Emergent by Design Donald Norman, Co-founder, Bitcoin Consultancy Ltd. Heather Schlegel, CEO, Purple Tornado Stan Stalnaker, Founding Director, Hub Culture / Ven Currency We've got a bunch of companies trying to get the biggest cut of the pie and fees, and then Bitcoin, which doesn't want your money or fees at all (and for which anyone can be a speaker or expert), it just works.

Title: Re: Sibos bump leading to Hackspace bump last 10 days of september rally Post by: NamelessOne on September 21, 2011, 04:07:33 PM I'd say this is what The Manipulator wants, and it may very well help trigger a new rally. It just wants to buy more at a lower price.

It's horrible! Title: Re: Sibos bump leading to Hackspace bump last 10 days of september rally Post by: Big Time Coin on September 23, 2011, 07:39:43 AM so today was the day of the talk and huge reduction in value. Could it be that the speakers at the future of money talk may be among the speculators doing most of the trading?

Quote But when Donald Norman, co-founder of fellow digital currency provider Bitcoin was questioned... who is he and when did he become friends with Satoshi? Title: Re: Sibos bump leading to Hackspace bump last 10 days of september rally Post by: teukon on September 23, 2011, 01:50:44 PM I wonder what happened at Sibos... http://www.finextra.com/news/fullstory.aspx?newsitemid=22993 (http://www.finextra.com/news/fullstory.aspx?newsitemid=22993) Bitcoin having a problem with illegal activity is easily matched and bested by centrally controlled wealth systems having a problem with severe immoral activity. A merchant accepting fiat is as easily accused of supporting corruption as one accepting Bitcoin is accused of supporting crime. That money laundering was the key criticism of Bitcoin is a huge success. If a merchant is concerned about supporting or appearing to support crime by accepting Bitcoin then I would urge them to think hard about what they are supporting by accepting fiat.

By definition, there's no such thing as an "illegal transaction" in terms of Bitcoins.

By definition, there's no such thing as an "illegal transaction" in terms of Bitcoins. My apologies, it seems I haven't expressed myself well. I don't mean to imply that Bitcoin has a problem with illegal activity, merely that if one could argue the case then one could almost certainly apply the same argument to fiat and corruption. I certainly have no ethical hang-ups with using Bitcoins and indeed feel better about trading with them than with Sterling. |
