Sometimes I dig holes in the back yard only to fill them back up again.

I guess I will ask the obvious question. Were you able to buy bitcoins at $103 yesterday? Yes? Your a hero! No? Your just a loser!

Surely they can't be doing it all manually. Probably wouldn't be worth the time or effort.

Your= possessive form

You're= A contraction of 'you are'

You want the latter not the former.


As to Bitcoin's price; welcome to the free market.

Is it just my imagination, or does this thread imply that "revans" here knew about or possibly was responsible for the attacks bitcoin has been suffering today?

Haha! Wait until you try to measure how much dirt is in one of those holes ;)

No, you've misinterpreted.

Yup it is a bot. You can't send that many manually, even with some sort of software it would be a waste of time.

Well, I am either responsible, or have some association with those who are. I mean, I would have though the words 'negative price action for hire' were pretty unequivocal. Then again, maybe it was all just a coincidence.

Do you think a bot is not a software ? Or do you think it was a waste of time write a bot that halted trading on at least two exchanges ?

A bot is obviously a well coded software piece. The computer can't do this on its own you know..

Guess I should include your quote again and bold it.

Also, you would be surprised by how bad coded software usually is. You can't judge code quality based on it working in a specific situation, specially when you don't have such code (or do you?). Anyway, I don't get where you're heading to with this new "argument" that computers aren't self-aware.
