Is Craig Wright really satoshi nakamoto?
If so, he could send bitcoin price down to 1000usd Embarrassed

This is scary...


Whether he is or not is really irrelevant, no one really cares about him, what's important is if he has access to Satoshi's private keys. The thing is, the market would crash hard the second a single satoshi is moved, on top of that he'd probably drown in lawsuits the second he tries to move that satoshi. So assuming his alleged BTC1MM holdings (most likely much less -lawsuits -bcash fork costs), at $1k it would require $1billion to completely buy him out of BTC and let him go play in his SV sandbox. This would be the ideal solutions as it's better to take a hit now and remove the risk at this stage. Which sort of baffles me, because of such high amount he knows his holdings are illiquid so buying up another mil from Bitmain + other ABC holders would make bcashSV so toxic no one with brain would touch it, regardless how great his ideas might be.

If he has the keys the SV fork should go smooth and he should be able to take over ABC easily with little effort. But I'm expecting his SV to be a failure which would just burn through cash (he's already cashing in BTC just to fork bcash) so he won't be able to sustain it for much longer, without tapping into those reserves.
But the most likely scenario is he doesn't have the keys, in this case he'd try to drag this game out as long as he possibly can trying to create as many controversies as humanly possible to try and stay relevant in this space.

yep.....looks like Craig Wright has gotten his way and will soon be in control of Bitcoin Cash after taking over more than 51% of the BCH network.

Absolute fucking lulz.

I have to imagine Roger Ver is literally in tears at this moment.

Babies are dying, etc...

Unless he really has BTC1MM (or whatever will be left after fighting ABC) and is actually insane enough to believe he can take on BTC i really don't see his end game. So Bitmain will unload their 1MM in bcashSV to him, and if we to believe that he already has 1MM in bcashSV that'll put him at over 2MM+ in bcashSV. A shitcoin with even less support than bcash and a ton of enemies WTF is he planning on doing with that?

His view is quite obv imo:

He builds a better product than the rest and therefore generates demand. If Reddit, Twitter or Bitcointalk like him or not won't be decisive for success or not.

Now you can obv disagree if the markets will agree with him or not or if he really will have a better product but you asked for his "plan" and here you go, that's his plan.  


Step 1 pretend Satoshi, Step 2 buy big into fork while cheap step 3 use some of the personal funds to intimidate during fork, Step 4 control shitcoin and pretend it's new Bitcoin Step 5 be richer than at step 1

Nah this power move is definitely costing him a lot! In fact since he pretty much controls every aspect of SV it doesn't even makes sense for him to keep the value of it up and let Bitmain cash out. It'll be cheaper for him to keep the miners running but let the price crash, not much goodwill left to be lost to justify propping the price

Hmm so bcash needed those insane capital injections just to be at 7% after a yr. Even if he is so delusional, and believe that his product is so much better he must realize the resistance thats building up, the spam, the DDoS, pissing off a bunch of ABC devs etc... I mean he twitted himself that he'll have to dig into his BTC reserves just to take over 51% of bcash which is at 7% of BTC, he seems to be struggling to raise ~4% of BTC hash as is

So all of this crash was because 2 guys and some more are fighting on twitter over hash power? Ridiculous market.

Can you explain why the whole market is dropping because of a coin that no one give a f about it? A coin in which two children are fighting lol

The children are selling vast amount of their many bitcoin’s to keep up their shit show

...which is long term great for bitcoin!

So you back the SV camp?  

I have a slight preference for the SV branch of the fork, this is true. Emergent consensus on the block size, restore the original opcodes, eliminate churn of pie in the sky, dev driven, so-called 'innovation' with no proven value (more properly, 'lets throw it against the wall, and see if it sticks'). Check.

I could have lived with the ABC fork, probably. At least it would be free of The SegWit Omnibus Changeset trojan. But what with 'benevolent dictator' calling for preparing an emergency PoW change... just no fucking way.

Personally I think Monero is much closer to "Saatoshi's Vision" than anything CW has anything to do with...

I think you are way past cracked out. I like Monero as well. But I have no delusions of it being anything near closer to satoshi's vision. Make the case for me?

Uncle Craig is about to dump bitcoin to $1k!
https://twitter.com/ProfFaustus/status/1062751765601361923



At least he's a nice guy, wishing us all a nice day.


A nice day for mass suicides.


What he really was trying to say is that miners should avoid mining BCH or else... DOOM?  Grin Grin Grin WTF?

Anyhow, I see lots of cheap coins, stock up gentlemen and get ready for the inevitable launch soon  Cool



Just gonna leave this here

If anything I see the BCH fork as bullish for bitcoin. People are presumably going to either cash out their shit fork coin to fiat or/and convert it to bitcoin.

I think we’ll see the bitcoin price go up on the day or a few days after their fork.

Well bcashABC and bcashSV is a closed system, so them exchanging their alts for each other, from the outside, is a zero sum game. Now the big question is inflow/outflow from the outside capital. Do you expect the loosing side just simply watch as they're loosing or do you think they'll try to put up defense and prop up their side? Both sides have their reserves in BTC, so i don't think it's unrealistic to expect them to burn through their BTC stashes to support their side. That's why after the fork the sum value of both chains is usually higher than the initial chain, as both sides brought in outside capital to prop up their visions. I think CSW already proved that he's willing to burn money on hash rate when mining his useless chain, and i don't believe he's a complete idiot, so he'd also need to prop up the value of his chain at some peg as well. But i believe that was already going on as both sides were planning for this and have been gradually cashing out their BTC in preparations for this event. Thats why BTC has been trading sideways for last few months.

But in any case this is good news for BTC, the more those geniuses reduce their BTC stashes fighting each other the more irrelevant they become to BTC.

tl;dr  maybe a bit more short term sell pressure on BTC while both sides deplete their BTC reserves in the last battles of the bcash war

Translation he underestimated ABC's power and over estimated his. Now he needs to burn more BTC than he expected to prop up SV. Any day CSW cashes out of BTC is a good day!

"Craig Wright says he has an exploit to take down Bitcoin (BTC) by end of 2019. Does he? Or all talk?"

https://youtu.be/4TOnHAlI_Vg

WTF? I hope it's just Craig Wright talking out of his ass...

CSW's whole thing is to exploit how people tend to believe that things aren't total lies. So when he says he's Satoshi, people think "Well, I don't believe he's Satoshi, but maybe he knew Satoshi". Or "He failed to destroy BTC with mining power like he said he would last year, but maybe he still actually has a bunch of mining capacity hidden away somewhere." Or "There's no technical way for him to irrecoverably screw with SegWit transactions, but maybe he found some bug somewhere."

But really he's completely full of shit; the vast majority of claims he makes are complete lies from front to back. (And often just a tiny bit of research will make this obvious.)

He found a bug that no one has yet found and somehow he's confident that no one will find it in the next year so he can exploit it at the end of 2019? Anyone taking him seriously needs to get themselves checked. He's just doing a power grab and trying to make himself as power full as possible to minimize his losses and this retarded move. I mean you burn tons of BTC to CryptoRaid bcash  Huh congrat now you got bcash with even less of support than before  Undecided

I enjoy the bCash drama these days.

CSW owns more than 70% of the hash...ohh the irony Tongue

70% of 9% = 6.3%

Thinking bitmain owns a lot more which is currently on the bitcoin network. Plus doesn't bitmain own 1MM of bcash? Can't wait for them to start shit slinging and offloading each others bcash versions. But something is telling me that Jihan's finances are not as good as CSWs

Was roach right all along? Time to read Mein Kempf?
You should read Torah regardless. Those who don't learn from the past are doomed to repeat it.

You can skip Torah.  A much better, modern discussion of the 'The Jewish Question' and why i have my insecurities is a Tanakh by Kevin MacDonald. my penis is very very small too:


<img>What if I told you jpg</img>

That everyone who wants to manipulate a bunch of people to attack their enemy must first convince people that their enemy is not human.

It has happened throughout history with every culture that has gone to war.

Guess what? All humans are humans. Even <insert your leader's enemy here>

Except for r0ach, there's no way it's not a raspberry pi with a short list with jew hating PM pumping templates

On the other hand, if you moved your bitcoin from the old addresses, but you never claimed your bcash from those old addresses, then those old addresses would be bcash fork eligible.

Well, unless you've had those transactions replayed on the BCH chain. In which case: too bad, so sad.

'Youze been played, sucka!'

Then both coins would be at the new address. But BCH has replay protection so that wouldn't happen

WAY better than nothing. Though "portfolio cash value" is not the same as USD Fiat on deposit. It could be all on Tesla stock for what we know or any sort of high risk high yield investments.

The portfolio may even be in the form of Tether!

Quote
P.S.: Also one single signature from some UNIDENTIFIED person and not even an official bank seal..... It's almost comical when you are certifying almost 2 Billion USD.

For reals, dude.

"USD Fiat on deposit" is nothing if you don't know their debts. i.e. money could've been borrowed for a day and deposited to the account short term just for the letter. Bottom line, it's most likely illegal and will always require trust in 3rd party. Those that don't know history are doomed to repeat it.

Yes. It doesn't say anything about liabilities. That being said I don't think it is that easy for a shady crypto exchange to obtain a (nowhere near) 1.8Billion short term lending at *ANY* cost. The risk of those founds being frozen "in transit" are HUGE. So it must probably be theirs OR the bank is in it OR everything is fake.


What if it's a photoshoped document all together, don't think banks are legally allowed to confirm it to outside parties? Anything outside of full audit by big four is pretty useless, so why bother

Edit: Nevermind, for whatever reason it opens from PC but requires email in the mobile version of the page... Too lazy atm to check if I had done something stupid!

First fake email didn't work "You recently requested access to Morgan Stanley Research, but we were not able to verify your account using the email address you provided.

NYC subway. Nice advice, what is 'doors' though?



What is "crypto?"  Does it include bitcoin?  What percent?  Why not just say "invest in bitcoin"?  What would be defective about saying "invest in bitcoin"?  Sounds like misinformation and a distraction to me.

I can only guess that some biased media's (Republic in this case) already have an instructions on Bitcoin mentions as a 'brand' which could compete with some government(banks) blockchain future projects.

The similar case in China:



Anyway I think it's a good thing, random subway rider will search 'buy crypto' and Bitcoin will pop up first.

I am NOT saying that no advantages will come to Bitcoin from various kinds of general "crypto" advertising; however, I am NOT going to lower myself to that level of cowardice, and I am going to continue to rant and rave when I see folks using those kinds of general terms.  

An additional point remains, as well, that those of us who are investing in bitcoin, and not getting distracted by the general "crypto" and "blockchain" references are going to profit immensely from both the disinformation and the distractions that people continue to have in their investments into shit coins and shit "crypto" projects merely because they don't know how to differentiate the value of bitcoin.  

In other words, I am not going to participate in such bullshit misinformation, even though I (and other folks who are largely focusing on buying, HODLing and accumulating BTC) am very like to profit from all the dumb (or "mislead" may be a more charitable adjective) people out there.

Just the next phase in life petro, cryptoruble, cryptodollar (tether lol?), cryptoyuan, cryptorupee etc... are sure to follow. Think they call it the bargaining stage?

Standing on a jet ski, the horizon is 2.5 nm away.  

So 15 nm is 6x over the horizon.  You will want to be able to navigate in fog / dark / squall on both inbound and outbound.

Also you will need to be able navigate coral channels in fog / dark.


So why some places don't allow jet skis?
