Cool.  Somebody voted for it too.

Until Thursday.

^ Lol. 

If you aren't sure then you shouldn't be trading in the first place.

He is thinking way ahead.  Get the network beyond frontier release first.  Fix bugs.  Make sure everything is good and ready before of thinking about fleecing people with even more money.

Where did you hear this?  And please explain what exactly happened.
13526  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Ship sinking!!!! on: October 02, 2015, 01:54:16 PM
For being what is is, I'd say that ethereum's launch wasn't as catastrophic as other launches have been. The price rebounded but it's not clear what'll be happening in the close future. While there was a lot of buzzwords and praising, I'm confident that Butterin spent more on development than advertising. The release proves the context to some extent, but as Butterin said, if no innovation comes from the community Ethereum won't be much of a success.

Check the chart since Ethereum was launched. Dump, then small rebound.Dump, small rebound.Dump, small rebound. Dump...
The direction is south. Pretty sad for the people who bought on exchanges. Many got burned.

I'll agree that some of the people who followed the laucnh hype got burned. But then again, I don't think this 'dump' can be compared to any other altcoin. WHat was usually the case with altcoins without innovation was that just days after the launch the price would have reached the bottom low as the promised woul;d have proven unreachable. Ethereum still shows potential, although the press release from Butterin saying the foundation lost $9m worth of funds was met with a 20% drop, the price somewhat recovered.

Wtf?  Did you see how much volume Ethereum had the first few days?  Over a million dollars daily.  That's how much ETH was dumped on a daily basis. Compare that to your everyday 'scam' where most would have a hunded dollars volume if you're lucky.

The extra ordinary ones go over a million in volume then *poof* volume gone in a month or two.  Then stagnate for a while.  We've seen this happen again and again.

Can't we enjoy both technologies without turning it into a pissing contest?

I'd prefer that they do.  It's good that they push the tech forward.
13528  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is there any real difference in Vitalik of Ethereum and Bobsurplus of crapcoin? on: October 02, 2015, 11:29:54 AM
Where is it?  Who's the accountant?
13529  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is there any real difference in Vitalik of Ethereum and Bobsurplus of crapcoin? on: October 02, 2015, 10:46:24 AM
The people at the top should be the last ones to get a large part of the moneyuntil the project is proven a success. Anyway, after doing some research and asking around about Ethereum, it would seem they hurried to get the 'frontier' release before their foundation's money ran out and before that got leaked to the public.  So they timed it while the hype was still very much alive.  

And some people close to the project (aka the insiders) who bought large allocations of ETH during the presale got first word on what's really up and got to dump first on the clueless buyers expecting Ethereum to be the holy grail of crypto.

So yeah, that's the story I got.
13530  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How can Alternate Cryptocurrencies Compete with Apple/Android pay? on: October 02, 2015, 10:20:44 AM
Yup. But don't get mad, it's ok if what you hoped would happen didn't happen.  A lot of college funds and savings were lost in the crypto craze.  Someone outta do a documentary on that one.
13531  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Ethereum about to pull a Cloak? on: October 02, 2015, 10:17:25 AM
And always keep in mind, the sharks are way ahead of you.  So be careful.
13532  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Ethereum about to pull a Cloak? on: October 02, 2015, 10:12:10 AM
Well, is it?





It could.  But look where Cloak ended up in the long run.  So if you get in, better have a good plan when to check out before you even plan to check in.  Wink
13533  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Ship sinking!!!! on: October 02, 2015, 10:08:33 AM
^ Yup yup yup.  Sharks couldn't wait to dump during all the hype.  And Buterin and co. did a good job timing the 'frontier' release before the hype gets stale.  And well before the Ethereum foundation running out of money and that leaking out.
13534  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Overleveraged buffoon creates biggest Mexican standoff in Altcoin history on: October 02, 2015, 08:33:34 AM
Maybe someone from the inside knows something.

I wanna figure out how Bitshares will be able to manage 100k TPS. Realistically, if it does what it says then it's the first Blockchain that can compete with Visa so 12-15 mil marketcap is nothing when you can run entire corporations on the Blockchain.

I meant the recent dump.  BTS 2.0 is coming out which is supposedly good..  Then someone dumps.  Does not compute.

So maybe someone inside knows something?

13536  Economy / Speculation / Re: What are possible scenarios for the block halving? on: October 02, 2015, 01:20:15 AM
What things could happen with the btc price when the block halving occurs? will the price go down due to miners cashing out? or will the block chain slow down due to miners shutting off their mining equipment? will the price go up because of less daily bitcoin created? what will likely happen?

Miners would have to sell more as the rewards are less to maintain their operations.
Assuming they don't already sell most of their coins.But no one really seems to know what % of coins are held by miners in hope of future gains.If we knew that, then it would be easy to make a prediction for the 2016 halving.

If they already sell most of their coins and the halving would make it unprofitable and thereby forced to shut down.  That isn't a good scenario as well.
13537  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are we entering a bull market again? on: October 02, 2015, 01:17:47 AM
I think we're going into a bull market. What do you think? Smiley

Yes we are.  It's already starting as a matter of fact.  It's a good time to start buying.
Something changed that I am not aware of? Current price of BTC is quite the same since couple of months, why suddenly you think we are entering bull market? There is nothing that indicates that.

Ok.  We are not going into a bull market.  Avoid Bitcoin.
13538  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitstamp getting desperate. Very Obvious fake volume bots. Not a good omen... on: October 02, 2015, 01:15:26 AM
The fuck you talking about?  Bitstamp is still ok and doesn't need to do such shenanigans.  Can't you see OP wants you to go to bitcointicktocker or whatever?  It could be his site for all we know.
13539  Economy / Speculation / Re: When will bitcoin reach 500 USD again ? on: October 02, 2015, 01:12:28 AM
...and why do you think so ?

On Thursday.  Because Willybot.

NEM is ahead of the poll.  That might count for something...
