Q: Given an unending supply of inflationary medium, how long can a balloon keep expanding?

The universe has been expanding for some time now.  Based on the historic trend line, it is likely to keep expanding.  It might even accelerate.

You may be waiting a wee while longer for universal Armageddon.  

What the hell does the universe have to do with a balloon? Nothing.

What the hell does expansionary monetary policy have to do with a balloon?  Nothing.  











Just poppin a few metaphors

HM, it looks like short term massive decline in bond's yield is cratering the stock market which, in turn, is affecting btc (negatively).
Gold/silver are outperforming, but probably not for too long (short term).
SP500 at 2150-2350 by October? BTW, SP500 is now marginally negative on a 1 year chart.

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/SPX/EsLWA86X-SPX-Top-Date-Coming-2-Sentiment-Low-Free-Market-Timing-Video/

TL;DR If SP500 crashes, bitcoin will go down with it. Then, hopefully, a re-bounce.

I understand what you are saying but I don’t agree that Bitcoin and SP500 are correlated.  People keep looking to the news to explain Bitcoin price movements, but this is the wrong approach. Bitcoin gives no fucks about trade wars.

We are just going through our usual summer shakes before autumn bull season starts.

the DOW went down 800 points  Shocked

We are suddenly correlating, which is a bummer, but could be attributed to Coinbase/Barclays conundrum.




It’s just the late summer shakes. Not related to news.

I predict we will get a slight relief rally after August 16

We are also seeing a slight tether discount emerging, which may indicative whales are starting to sell tether and move back into Bitcoin.  Blue line is 1 USDT = 1 USD

According to the 2015 fractal, the final bottom of the 2018/19 bear market should occur on 16 August 2019between now and the end of August.  Given the rate of front running, I think better than even odds that the final bottom of 2019 is occurring right now.  

Translation:  now is a good time to buy (in moderation, like all things).

For fucks sake JJG.  We discussed this yesterday. I asked you quite nicely not to quote Roach.

Ignored for a week for quoting Roach.
1432  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: August 14, 2019, 01:35:54 AM
I already responded both that your facts are not correct and also,

So you're asserting that the charts I posted links to contain fraudulent figures? Interesting. I don't believe your assertion is correct, so I will tentatively conclude that you are delusional on these additional matters of fact.

I'll be happy to rescind my conclusion of delusional, just as soon as you post links to credible evidence of corrected data.

... and even if you might be using some actual facts ... emphasizing facts (if true) in your favor

I know that at one time, in about late 2017, you and your buddy, PeterR were advocating 50/50 or some baloney like that

Nope. You misrememberate. I think Peter suggested just not divesting your other Bitcoins. For my part, I have divulged several times that I have several times the number of BCH, and of BSV, than I do of BTC, though the dollar value of my BTC exceeds the rest of my holdings. And no, I do not feel stupid about it. I fully expect total vindication upon the onset of Blockalypse II. Even if not, I am doing just fine, thankyouverymuch.

<<... deflection continues ...>>

Lest we forget which facts JJG asserted are incorrect:

Quote
From end of 2017 Feb to mid 2017 Jun, BTC dominance plunged from over 85% to below 40%.
https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/#dominance-percentage

The beginning of 2017 is when blocks started becoming persistently full.
https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-size.html

The loss of dominance was due neither to BCH nor ICOs. 'Twas the Blockalypse. Or more precisely, Blockalypse I.

OK, actually only the first two were facts. The last paragraph was merely a rational conclusion based upon those preceding facts.

My dear bear, correlation does not equal causation

A crypto bull market will shrink Bitcoin market dominance

A crypto bull market will also increase Bitcoin transactions

Guess what: both of these things happened

Theoretically possible but unlikely

CSW will probably end up losing the law suit and have to pay the costs of Ira Kleiman.  But Ira Kleiman is suing to recover something that doesn’t exist so Ira can’t win in any meaningful sense.

So it will all wash away in a wave of bullshit and the BSV shillboys will proclaim it a miracle for BSV.

Someone will jump on something the judge says in the judgement and hold it up as proof that a US court has ruled that CSW is Satoshi.  Of course it won’t say that, but shillboys will believe anything.
1434  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: August 13, 2019, 11:01:49 PM


I am unclear on any consequences that 'fake satoshi' would have in this court case. Assuming he is gonna lose it.

1) it is a civil case? thus big whoop?

2) Craig Wright can just not do the judgment or the payment or whatever, if found guilty, being overseas and all?

3) Call "Dog: The bounty hunter!"

Just sum up for me, if he Craig Wright is gonna get 'dinged' on this in any manner,

or he will just walk away without any 'real' consequences.

I want his 'ass' but I think he is gonna walk without even a slap on his tiny wrists. Sad

Brad




Wright v Kleiman is a civil case.

CSW and David Kleiman supposedly mined 1.1 million bitcoins which are tied up in a complicated trust structure called the “Tulip Trust”.  CSW claims the entirety of the trust was handed over to him.

Ira Kleiman, brother of David Kleiman, is suing for half.  

The problem is there is no evidence that any bitcoins were mined, or if they were, they weren’t sold a long time ago. It is almost certain that Tulip Trust is just a bullshit publicity stunt.

So it’s a big law suit about nothing which is going nowhere.  Nothing will happen to CSW - he will just get more publicity.

Don't we all love a friendly reminder from time to time..... I bet there where some boring times as well in .30$ or at 1,2$ etc

I don't mind some sideways at 5-dig at all Cheesy

Potential high risk investment with amazing strong fundamentals and absurd high rewards ....only one thing patience, luckily i'm a patient Dude !!!! Cheesy Cheesy

The guy is a shitcoiner now.  Just goes to show some people will never learn.
1436  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: August 12, 2019, 07:44:05 PM
OK Wall Observers!

Time for some free shitcoins that we can dump en masse to pump up this puppy!

I've already earned $80 in free lumens, EOS, BAT & other shitcoins, although I admit some of them are actually very innovative, sophisticated & interesting, but I will probably wait for the next dip and then trade them all for BTC
Maybe I'll stake some EOS since that's fun.
With my reflinks, I can earn even more coins and tokens.
Do this, then you can invite your friends to do the same and you double your free tokens and coins.
If anyone wants to log in to the free coin giveaway with my reflink, I'd be grateful.
Just PM me for the link
NEW OR Existing customers can use any of these links.
Hurry, 2 of 7 coins have been all claimed.
Do a dump en masse at the next big dip and we can mini-pump up BTC - WIN-WIN!
It's worth having an account at Coinbase for all the freebies that keep coming, IMO, keeping just a little trading money & BTC in my wallets.
80% of my BTC is in my Trezor wallet.
https://www.coinbase.com/earn

how long did it take for your shitcoins to appear in your account?  I'm not seeing my goddamn free lumens goddammit

 Coinbase was subject to the #deletecoinbase movement for acquiring a spyware team that worked for oppressive governments and incorporating that team into its exchange.

Coinbase can gtfo and keep its glass baubles

Bitcoin does not care it monitors everyone equal, that is obviously not welcome by everyone.

Sorry ðºÞæ you are now on my ignore list, rules is rules.

Confirmed ignored.

WO gang.
BTC is so lazy in these days, but I think this news is really important:



 LITECOIN WALLETS HIT BY LARGE-SCALE DUSTING ATTACK, SO WHAT IS IT?

Quote
Reports are emerging that Litecoin wallets have been hit by a new kind of cyber-attack called dusting. It has not affected LTC markets but is something that crypto traders and holders should be aware of. Binance Academy offered an explanation.

Quote
In short, a dusting attack is when scammers attempt to break the privacy of a cryptocurrency, Litecoin in this case, by sending tiny amounts of it to private wallets. The attackers then attempt to trace the transactional activity of these wallets in an attempt to discover the identity of the person that owns them.

The term ‘dust’ refers to the tiny fractions of crypto coins that most users ignore. A couple of hundred satoshis may be referred to as ‘dust’ as the sum is so tiny that most people would not even notice it. It is also prevalent on crypto exchanges as the remnants of transactions that remain in wallets and can no longer be user or transferred.

Here a description of the attack on Binance academy.
https://www.binance.vision/security/what-is-a-dusting-attack

This technique is used on Bitcoin to, so be alert WO gang: when someone send you some sats, be safe!


Maybe I am dumb but I don’t really get this. How does dusting an address make any difference ?   You can trace the flow of funds either with or without the dust ?   All transactions are public data.
I didn't understand this before either, but it is a way to link different adresses in the same wallet, it can not do more than that.  Maybe you used an old address once and it is empty.  However, you still have some funds on a newer address in the same wallet.  You spend funds from that wallet.  You were not aware the old wallet received some dust, and the dust was included in the transaction, showing both the old and new address as inputs to the same tx, and therefore probably part of the same wallet, belonging to the same person.  If there was identity info attached to any of the 2 addresses, that identity info is now linked to the other address.

TLDR: basically assume al addresses in the same wallet are known to be linked, and make separate wallets if you don't want it to be linked.

Ok I get it now.  It is a way of forcing address reuse, where an address known to be linked to X can be forcibly reused to link new addresses to X.

I wonder what they should change the "Save" icon to...

True, floppy disks are just completely irrelevant.

Can't change it to a CD because they are nearing irrelevance.

The "Save" icon is iconic, but antiquated.

What would be a decent replacement?

This is a good question.   I think it is time to stop trying to imitate things in the real world (skeuomorphism) and come up with a completely new icon.

Maybe an arrow that goes to the right and then bends 90 degrees straight down - meaning saving the document down.

*edit* you still need a “save as” icon?
