hmmm... the price of bitcoin is supposed to be up higher than the expected, as the bitcoin reward halve.
it should be at least $860 in the next halve, because the actual demand is remaining the same.

.... but bitcoins aren't destroyed. You can recycle them.

Yes, why don't you get started with your stupid-ass belief that everyone is lambie...


except you of course.

what a dumb ass.

Don't freak me out you crazy fuck!

@JJG are you one of lambies characters?


You are a fucking stupid ass.

You keep asking this question regarding whether I am Lambie or somehow affiliated... blah, blah, blah, and it seems likely that you are just attempting to spread misinformation for some unknown, and probably stupid ass reason.

You have absolutely zero information that would support such a suggestion that I am Lambie or anyhow affiliated (or maybe if I give you the benefit of the doubt, you have 1% information that could support such a stupid ass conjecture).

In this regard, you seem to be acting as a fucking nut job that is obsessed with thoughts that every account that asserts something that kind of sort of resembles something that Lambie might possibly could have maybe perhaps say is Lambie....

Get off of your fucking dumbass illogical thinking.... and maybe get out a little bit in order that you can become a little bit more worldly, and maybe even working on your logic, may be helpful?

1048  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 26, 2016, 09:14:01 PM
the price is pretty stable right now, im wondering if it will stay like that for a while, im looking to buy some bitcoins but honestly i dont have the courage to do that now


There's really no such thing as stable in bitcoin... even though peeples seem to like to throw that word around.

Really, if you are not sure, and you think prices could go up or they could go down, then you should figure out the amount that you are considering investing, and then divide it up into portions that you could invest some portion of that now, and then additional portions if the price goes down (at certain triggering points). 

If you do not have any bitcoins, and you choose to not invest any at all at this point, then that would logically signify that you believe 100% that the price is going to go down, and based on your above text, it already appears that you are not 100% convinced, and you should therefore invest a little bit right now in accordance with your actual view and your risk tolerance.   

No need to get greedy, just invest sensibly to the best of the information now available to you in order that you are prepared for the price to go in either direction in accordance with your risk tolerance and your view of probabilities.

how the F is getting an upgrade to effective block size of 2MB ASAP with segwit, and then later 4MB effective  block size with HF increase, not acceptable to some poeple? and they would rather risk War, over getting the 2MB HF done first (a few months sooner), this is ludacris!

Ok, so core supporters should be given the benefit of doubt no matter what, but with the other side it's all cloak and daggers?
I never said that either side was clean. Some cases are very obvious though, such as this one. The tactic is quite simple: Some major player does something related to Classic -> DDoS them -> blame Core.

Obvious to you. To others it's even more obvious that this is a straight out attack from core supporters. Miners and nodes were discouraged by the XT ddos attacks. They work. A blame game would be pointless when the nodes and miners don't dare run the software.

I think it's more likely that the people who have financial incentive invested in seeing one side succeed over the other would engage in these tactics.
So both sides? Great, this helps out out.

Oh really? So the same thing happening to XT was just a coincidence?
What makes you think that XT nodes were the only ones under DDoS at that time?

Ok, so core supporters should be given the benefit of doubt no matter what, but with the other side it's all cloak and daggers?

That's the whole point of this. Divide Bitcoin internally and try to crush it, because the cryptography that it currently uses is not breakable.
Certain people stand to lose a lot if Bitcoin succeeds to become mainstream. This has nothing to do with the 2 MB block size limit. You need to look at the bigger picture. However, this is off-topic here. There are other places where you might find relevant information.
Some information is not for everyone. I'm giving you a friendly warning once again, stop derailing the thread as this is off-topic. I will not respond further on this subject in this thread.

i just realize this :

 cost mining of 1 btc per month at current difficulty (for 12 c per kwh) is around 560 usd  for latest miner.   Shocked Shocked Shocked



bullshit.

really?


from
https://alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator

i get that 1 btc per month need 11 T, this 11 T i assume need 6.5 Kwh

then using
http://www.rapidtables.com/calc/electric/electricity-calculator.htm

i calculate how much usd per month for those 6.5 kwh

 Cool

current gen run 4.73TH at 1293 Watts. And no professional miner pays 12c/kWh. More like 1.5-4 cents.

wow... latest miner can do  4.73TH at 1293 Watts. ?

so its about 265 per coin instead  Sad Angry

edit :  nevermind, still above 500 next halving

Depends on other costs, but they're not doing it just for the lulz. There needs to be a profit margin. Especially with this risk profile.

Mining is at an unsustainable level atm. Next diff adjustment is probably going to be flat or in negative territory: http://bitcoincharts.com/

So unless the BTC price goes up soon we're going to see average block times go up until some months after the halving.

Sure good we have a good margin on those blocks.

WEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Conclusion

In conclusion, even with efficiency improvements like Segregated Witnesses, and alternative payment channels like Lightning, it will not be possible to scale Bitcoin to a value far above that of today without compromising its security. Significant blocksize increases might relieve fee pressure, but might carry with them other security or centralization issues not discussed here.

Lots of "if's" there. When every number in a calculation is an unknown...

Yes, its much better to "trust" gavin or hearn or the toomins 20mb doubling > 8mb > 4mb > 2mb flexcap fork It nao... The data is real there. Roll Eyes

Glad we agree.

Lambie, you’re becoming a bully like iCEBREAKER Cry

Now you're being unfair. Lambie has always been an asshole. iCEBREAKER is the pretender. And not a very good one.

But seriously, eli5 it to me now. How will decentralization be altered in a meaningful way if the number of nodes go down from 6000 to 2000 (I don't think it would, but I'm curious nonetheless)?

What is often overlooked is the fact that number of nodes is irrelevant if all nodes are run by the same parties, this is why it's crucial that the nodes can be run on people's personal computers at home, at their offices, and so on. "Specialization" of nodes, would kill Bitcoin as we know it (as a decentralized currency), this is why there is a clear agenda by some people to raise the block size and make Bitcoin nodes end up as centralized as mining is right now.

?

That's not an answer, that's a paranoid delusion.



Again with the agendas.

Even if this weird conspiracy were to play out there are still people out there, real people like you and me, with ultra high speed connections. And I can buy 20 professional grade used servers with sas drives and xeon processors for $300 a piece on our national equivalent to ebay. I'm guessing ebay has something similar. So all we need to protect ourselves from this cataclysmic event is to have some slightly above average dedicated Bitcoin nutters. A quick look at the WO thread tells me we're safe for now.

And again, who are these "people" with "a clear agenda"? I want names. If the agenda really is "clear" it should be easy to attach it to some identifiable entities. And if this agenda is so bloody clear, I want it explained in detail.
