Does JorgeStolfi even have a BTC wallet?
Anyway, best of luck with the deal. Let us know if its successful. Seems dodgy to me though.

Did you died?   

This has probably been discussed before but I want to raise it again...

can bitcoins be destroyed

You can burn fiat currency...so can you destroy a bitcoin? Is it possible? How would you go about it? How would it effect the economy and how would someone find about it if it occurred?

Discuss

Boy, what a surprise. The question is, why where the Chinese ever so naive to think it wouldn't happen?

Do they seriously think the PBOC won't ban "4th party" too, or didn't intend to ban it already? The exchange operators seem to be playing an extremely dangerous game here.

Sorry to break it to you, but one of these is not alike.



This formation never occurred in April or November. I really doubt this rally will reach new highs.

My personal opinion: Its done.

Further zooming out you will see this pattern has happened 3 times in a row

Still no money hitting bitstamp orderbook.. doesn't look so good to me. Huobi/Bfx are doing fairly well with bid/ask depth.

I almost hate to say this; however, I cannot resist.

If someone who looks like this guy in this picture has a lot of money, then he needs to put that money to work for his own benefit, health wise.  I am NOT talking about the genetic factors that cannot be changed, and I am sorry if there are unknown genetic factors present.

What I am suggesting is that this person, seemingly admittedly Rpietila, is looking too sickly for a 34 year old in the 21st century.  These days we have longer longevities, but this picture looks like a person who is nearly on his death bed - pale and a kind of skinny fat.

Rpietila, I make this suggestion to you without hate and with your best interest in mind - b/c I would like you to be around in 1 year or 10 years or more, if possible. 

I would prescribe changing some of the health factors that are within your control, and you have additional control over several lifestyle matters b/c you are supposedly well off in the money department (you do NOT have to work, if you do NOT want to).   

Most important is diet.  You need to make sure that you are getting sufficient quantities of meat and fat in your diet.  Red meat, fatty fish would be good to make sure as staples.   Some green vegetables would be good too.  Cut out foods with added sugars, and especially a large number of processed foods, including those with fillers such as wheat, corn and soy.  Try to limit your carbs to less than 35% of your diet.  Actually less than 20% would be o.k. too, but up to 35% is acceptable so long as those carbs are mostly whole foods, and are not dominated by processed foods and sugars.

2nd :  Sleep.  Most people need at least 6 hours per day, but 6-9 hours may be o.k.  More than 9 hours may NOT be good.

3rd:  Exercise.  Of course this can vary based on your total activities, but from the look of the picture, you have NOT been getting too much exercise in recent years.  At minimum you should be getting 2 hours per week over 3 days.  I would recommend more however, such as 4-5 hours of exercise per week.   You do NOT want to over do exercise, b/c you need to control inflammation, especially if you are NOT used to exercise.    Also, most people need to space out their exercise in order to build in rest and recuperation times, especially as we get older. You can combine resistance training such as weights with cardio-vascular.  But since it looks like you may NOT exercise too much, you may want to warm up 5-10 minutes of cardiovascular before partaking in resistance training.  Usually, it is better to save the bulk of the cardio-vascular for the end of your work-out rather than the beginning b/c you do NOT want to wear yourself out with cardio-vascular when it appears that you may need some muscle building.

The bid wall on stamp looks very thin. $660 was also a resistance in March. We may have some correction here (possibly another cup-and-handle)

你怎么老是要往极端了说呢，我在讨论它有无可能彻底取代纸币，不是在说它完美不完美啊！任何东西都有缺陷，跟这个题目有个鸟关系？从便利、政治因素等很多角度考虑，目前的人类社会的确只有纸币是最适合作为货币的。你不仅曲解了我的意思还纠缠不放，真无聊。
后面那几句，是你问我有没有人说我才那么回答的好么？还说自己没有在狡辩。
再回复我也懒得理你了，自己激动去吧，拜拜。烦。

我只是在设想比特币的未来性，你这属于狡辩，没有意义。至于说后面那几句，说的人很多很多

我的意思是，当谈到比特币带来的社会变革时，其实还是有限的，并且由于受到用电限制，它怎么取代法币和黄金呢？真到那天的时候，人类世界必须是完全的虚拟化才有可能

Some people are worried about China, but China has led a long time during this past winter. Sure it will probably end in disaster, but it can last a while, and a higher price at China will make it more difficult for Bitstamp et al. to decline.

I do wish I knew why people still have funds there and why their behaviour has recently changed.

I'm not saying you're wrong about $666 after the weekend, or even breaking $700 fairly soon. But I keep wondering how people can start seriously getting excited about the next ATH when volume still looks like this:





At some point between now and a new ATH we will need to see at least the volume of the peak days. Right now, we're at about a third to a fifth of that peak volume.

To be clear: that's not my way of saying that this rally is doomed. just that it seems way premature to even mention a new ATH before we're seeing similar volume spikes again as we did before, with upwards of 100k coins per day USD volume (and, yes, I'm okay with summing over stamp, finex and btc-e to have that count towards 100k)

To obtain as many different perspectives from as many different angles as possible.

The second statement was supposed to happen in 2014.
