Bitcoin cultists accusing religious people of being cultists? At least when it comes to religion, people are usually indoctrinated from birth and have massive social pressures (there are hardly people who convert). Now becoming a cultist of your own free will, that's something else.
Also, I don't think there is any disadvantage in investment being Muslim, what does it matter if he gets 0% instead of 1% interest? Nothing.
Free will is an illusion bro You're an idiot

I would NOT call any body stupid or their actions stupid b/c of religion Joining cults isn't an issue of intelligence. It's more a reflection of emotional health vs injury. Studies say otherwise. There has been a negative correlation between religion and IQ for the majority of test subjects.

wtf? he is running to the hills, why so annoying? morrowind, elder scrolls? get a life. He said that he cashed out half of his BTC yesterday b/c he has a plan to play with the proceeds for two years. I said that his plan seems to be very short sighted, especially given the likely direction of BTC in the next six months. Therefore I asked him where he planned to put his investments, and he failed/refused to answer, and instead stuck to his original framing about how wonderful he is., etc etc etc.. for making so much money, while he left quite a bit on the table through neglect and/or lack of foresight, so it seems. other posters mentioned morrowind and elder scrolls.... b/c I do NOT know WTF are morrowind and elder scrolls... even though those topics may be relevant. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Regarding, "get a life" Yes, we each have lives and we choose how to spend our lives, and part of my life, at the moment includes posting on this forum and responding to relevant issues... and attempting to contribute to the forum (thread) in a productive direction. I have it in my bank account where I pay my bills and pay for goods with €.... The best of my current bank accounts only pays about 1% interest, and possibly you could get 3 or 4% if you have some kind of premium bank account and if that is what floats your boat, then who am I to say? BTW, I dont take the interest that the bank gives me, this is against my believes and it is called ribaPretty stupid of you. yea sure, being Muslim is stupid ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Yes you are an idiot.

... There was no reason to go down...
Of course there was a reason to go down, I predicted it on the 10th June just based on charts. Quoting myself from 10th June: If the price drops below 450$ then the uptrend is broken and after a weak rebound we'll drop even lower. To go higher than 700$ would require that the upcoming correction doesn't drop below 450$ (not below 550$ to be sure). But many times the markets need an excuse to go down, and now they got some. So far we're above 550 ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Worst a 51% attack could do is halt confirmations of all transactions until the hashrate drops. Not really a problem.
that's still a dos attack, and that's still a problem until the hashrate drops or like within 10 minutes. I'm not sure I understand, if the hashrate drops significantly, it could take longer than 2 weeks for it to adjust. blocks would be very slow in the meantime, it's still a denial of service attack. is it not? When the POOL'S hashrate drops. ah, ok, so they drop below 50 and the attack is dead? my point is that the possibility of the 51% attack is something that needs to be addressed. so we either test it and find out now, or we just sit around and talk about it until some time down the road someone pulls it off and kills the network? "kill the network" Didn't we just go over this

the double bottom is in we are way over sold because of FUD 30K BTC is not going to kill bitcoin all you fools that are manipulated by market depth are about to get schooled
I feel like the drop was mainly due to 51% attack fear. I wish someone would just attempt a real 51% attack already and prove how futile or destructive it is. seriously, if it's such a big problem, then how can you ever trust the blockchain with your life savings? until it is tried, and defended against, it will always be a potential "deal-breaker" for bitcoin. kinda like the fork that happened a while ago. (that moment is also the reason I'm still mining at btcguild, even though we're getting crushed right now) - but I am thinking of creating a ghash.io account and pointing my negligible hashrate over there just so we can see what happens... If there is anything that can break bitcoin, it is better to get it out of the way now, better than later... Worst a 51% attack could do is halt confirmations of all transactions until the hashrate drops. Not really a problem.

More than likely what will happen is market prices will take a nose dive in prices for the next few weeks until coins have done auction and won and no doubt people will continue to sell and drop the prices below $200 a coin and continue to drop and my prediction is around the $150 area where things will get interesting and some dumped and some held and prices will go back up and back down again a few times.
Expect prices to go to mid 400s next then 300s for a week or so and back down a little more and then slowly go back up. Then again it could go the other way. No doubt the twins will be in for scooping up some cheap coin to get 1% of their hold in bitcoin increased.
10/10 predictions

Do I see a double bottom forming? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Indeed

I can vouch for this developer, fast and professional.
If you have any problems you can always request a refund.

They have now 45% of hasrate, should we be worried about that?
And what if they have 10% in "unknown" pools? Then they have 55% now...
So how dangerous is this?
No get out

Our Nakamoto who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy blockchain. Thy Bitcoin come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily confirmations. And forgive us our doublespends. As we forgive those who doublespend against us. And lead us not into altcoins, But deliver us from Karpeles. For Thine is the kingdom, The power and the glory, Forever, Amen

Lol. 51% is just a figure of speech. You only need 50.0000000000000000000000000000000000000001% to attack. They've reached that and have not attacked as of yet.
You can attempt double spends at 20-30-40% It's all based on probability and how deep the transaction is in the chain.

It just dropped to 49%. Immediate disaster averted.
And back up to 50% again. And 49% again. They're on the edge and keep flipping. When it hits 51% BTC explodes
