1423  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Geocaching with Bitscavenger.net on: April 22, 2013, 08:34:31 PM
I wanted to let people know that I have created a Bitcoin Geocaching game available for Android.  You use the QR Codes you see around you every day to leave bitcoin and a clue about where to find the correct QR code to scan.  That will then show up as a marker on the game map and allow other people to search for the bitcoin you have left.

I have a larger write up about it here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=182212.0

seems like a very costly game for some nowadays - like the idea though

don't you try to be authoritative with your assertions. can't see the difference except you are always saying single digits etc

If people wonder why I don't reply to ElectricMucus, the reason is I ignored him long time ago and don't see his posts. I agree that he is the most pathetic troll, acting as if he did not understand anything that I say, for some reason thinking that the forum is pleased to be reminded about his ignorance several times per day. Please reply if you have ever received any value from this douche  Huh

dude's got a lot of time free time on his hands. that or he is being paid by someone to troll
1425  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crash will bottom at $30, you heard it HERE first. on: April 22, 2013, 07:19:33 PM
I would give 12% odds for the following statement:

"Placing a bid order now at $32 in Mt.Gox, it will be fulfilled before end of 2013."

About 22% for the following:

"Placing a bid order now at $49.9 in Mt.Gox, it will be fulfilled before end of 2013."


And how do you calculate those odds? Let me guess: "Intuition"

You're trolling hard  Grin That post was like 5 days ago...

That doesn't really make a difference. I am serious, this guy makes a lot of bold statements, and tries to appear authoritative without any data to back it up.
I'm calling him out everytime I see him post this way, maybe he will get it.

He's my new project if you will.  Grin

don't you try to be authoritative with your assertions. can't see the difference except you are always saying single digits etc

Mtgox should either disclose who is behind it, freeze their assests and turn them over to authorities
1427  Economy / Speculation / Re: Impressive - Merchant confidence returns! on: April 21, 2013, 08:16:03 PM
Attitudes, expectations have changed. Fear is gone this is business as usual. its time mtgox said who is behind the attacks
1428  Economy / Speculation / Re: And now - the sucker's rally on: April 20, 2013, 01:55:14 AM
how about a 3 month min before being able to post in the speculation board?

press release: Apple coming out with a brand new cool iPhone 6 that will change the world. so the rumors say- watch apple's stock price go up 10% without even knowing what the iPhone 6 even is.
^ example

I don't see anything fundmental in this list, which consists of anecdotal media references. I agree that media will continue to play the lead role in pricing Bitcoin. If any of the recent developments had happened quietly, without major press releases, we would still be hovering around $13.50.

I guess if there is ever an actual big piece of news, we can rest assured that the price would rise to astronomical levels. The Western Union non-news piece that moved us substantially was a virtual repeat of an interview that happened over a month ago. They've already said they're watching Bitcoin and may revisit it after it matures sometime in the distant future.

Many point to the types of charts listed below as fundamental evidence.

I love the Bitcoin concept but hate (understatement) that it moves so erratically. I would love nothing more than to see high net-worth individuals begin utilizing Bitcoin in their portfolios......but it seems that we can only move in a bizarre and erratic manner based solely on press releases of little substance. I keep waiting and hoping it will settle down and at least pretend to be rational. Such low volume propels it into the stratosphere.

I am very close to giving up on Bitcoin, at least temporarily, as an investment vehicle. I may revisit it down the road if it truly attains fundamentals outside of the press release circuit. The media pump is doing more harm than good. I initially joined this forum to find out what everyone here was all about and have kind of been sucked into posting regularly, often regarding the over-exuberance (IMO).

If I am correct and we move down to rational levels and stay there for awhile, I will revisit Bitcoin. If I am completely wrong and we move up much higher and, for some magical reason, finally enjoy a modicum of stability (doubtful), I will revisit Bitcoin. If we actually stabilize here for awhile, I may revisit. At the present, there is too much risk to do anything with this.....I cannot gamble solely based on media hype and hyper-speculation. If we were much lower, it might be worth the gamble.

My main problem is that Met-Art, OKCupid, Bitpay, the VCs, etc etc, have become much less important than the accompanying press releases. If the CEO of Bank of America owned a single bitcoin and issued a press release stating just that, we'd apparently go to $10K.




you mean how stocks, bonds, gold and everything else in the world goes UP and DOWN based on RUMORS, NEWS, PR ETC
i don't think you understand that is exactly how the real world actually works. not just bitcoins but everything
it seems you are confused
1431  Economy / Speculation / Re: Irrational on: April 19, 2013, 08:39:27 PM
fundamentals are fine. what you described are called hiccups


let me put it another way. by the time it becomes RATIONAL the price of a bitcoin will be 10,000+
1432  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LTC on GOX on: April 19, 2013, 07:51:30 PM
ya.. ok so it seems like everyone here just wants it to go on gox and dump it for more money.
so gox alone makes the value of the coins go up/

there are plenty of services you can hire to rent out "computing power"
what does this really have to do with a "currency"
it just sounds like you want to rent hashing power to people or am i wrong

no guys. you are all wrong.
this member is an expert. he joined one month ago and knows everything that he is talking.
make him feel good that he is so smart.

How old are you sweetie? who cares about the date of joining the forum? You need to live long enough and watch the price of stocks and commodities and go through several bubbles to be able to identify a bubble. It's amazing how the price is following the same pattern - how on the first day after the crash - people are saying that the crash is over and the price indeed went up to 200$... and then it's amazing how the price goes lower than all expectations just to rise again and pull everybody in again into this sucker's rally. It happend so many times in the past - just google 'financial bubble' and you won't believe it - there's almost always that bump that takes the price real high - it sometimes almost goes beyond the top of the bubble value - it lurs you in - you are just starting to believe that wow - it's going up forever!...

GotBitCoins.

well, if you claim to know a lot i would think that something more along the lines of "MTGOX CRASHED DDOS LAGGED"-
fundamentals of bitcoins didn't change. mtgox and bitcoins are supposed to be different things. i don't think you understand that.
do tell me how a company goes from $0 to billions in a matter of a few years. google went from nothing to billions. no, that makes no sense! must be a bubble. google is worth $1. why don't you go back to trading stocks and commodities that you are so familiar with. why don't you also use the tulip mania graph that every "expert" likes to bring up. because tulips 300 years ago and digital currency are the same exact thing.
