I would rather see 10 MB blocks, to be honest. And a reliable, automatic block size increase that is based on facts and maths and stuff.
And to whoever is posting with the noob accounts, bitcoin has died over 70 times*! And all it ever does is come back harder, better, faster, stronger.

False alarm. Sorry, I wont be needing the loan. I'll be sure to tell you any time I need a microloan 

Quick update, I have no funds available at the moment, but we can make the deals now, and carry them out after September 1st (which is when I'll have money). Sorry for the inconvenience 

Loan Amount:     BTC0.001
Reason:              I foolishly made a deal thinking I had a milibitcoin more than I actually did
BTC Address:      19LWG2WYYPnQshNrEj64Rv6wBAyQqmTEua
Term Length:     1 week
Collateral:          The jr. member account I previously used as collateral.

Name your offers and give me the info. I'm all ears.

@Cconvert2G36, just another "bitcoin is dead" going on since a few years ago. What's with the tiny "theyre gonna get us!" message? Bitcoin will never die, I think cryptocurrencies are as good as currency. They're already doing better than some. And to update, yeah, I did repay the $2 loan with interest. I plan on making a few other ones.

Yes, I am very interested. PM'ed

Cant think of a better way to represent bitcoin, a weeping angel. The Doctor Who fans in this thread know exactly what happens when you blink and a weeping angel is out to get you. You simply cannot declare bitcoin dead, you cannot take your eyes away from it, you cant blink.

Bitcoin has the phone box. It's a creature from another world. It's static only when you see it... the lonely assassin, they used to call it...
Dont turn around, dont look away and dont blink.

urm... bump?

Scarlet witch came into the bitcoin market November of 2013 and declared "no more double digits". I am confident to say that we will never again see any bitcoins being sold at a price below $110, even including freak occurrences. We're at bargain prices already. If you cant buy in now, youre really kind of screwed, and you cant FUD the market into the double digits, just as you cant (currently) rally the market into four digits. It's just not doable.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. There is no excuse to allow the block size to be arbitrarily set whenever the devs feel like. I think it should be an automated process, Satoshi might have been justified in not setting a block size increase like he did with the supply decrease, but we have enough data now. We have enough data to make a reliable model based on empirical data, in order to periodically increase the block size. I think it would have been reasonable to increase the block size to 8mb. Maybe they should have just set it at 4mb and be done with it ^{until the next time we need a block size increase.}

I mean, we had 30+ mb block size limit, and we had not big issues then, right?

I'm also looking for bitcoin wallets with activity going back more than a year. The balance and all other attributes are really irrelevant, the older the activity, the better. Make sure to include price proposals and date of first transaction (preferably with the address, too. If you're comfortable providing it). Thanks in advance. Happy trading!  

Edit:

I ran low on money sooner than expected, but I'll have more soon. We can make deals, but I wont be able to pay until the 1st of September. So I guess we can make a deal now and carry it out then (after September first).

Personally, I'm hoping the bargain price remains until about next month, September 26th. Until then, I'm very happy to see low prices. I'm saving money to place an order, soon. I'll be adding another 0.4 BTC to my wallet, maybe. Yes, I am that poor  but I'm doing fine, putting a little into bitcoin at a time.

As of right now, I have a few loans going on at bitbond.com (getting better interests than I would at a bank) and I have made a few purchases using purse.io (making a few savings, compared to the local stores, which have ridiculous profit margins), and occasionally helping my friends buy stuff online. Using bitcoin is too easy and convenient (compared to the old and obsolete systems we use here) for me to give up. Regardless of price, I'm almost always looking for more bitcoin.

I really dont think that there is an excuse not to scale up. Hell, it should be an automated process by now. The community will grow and we're going to need the larger blocks. I dont see how making the block, say... 8MB would cause any trouble. At all. Personally, I dont think this most recent crash back to $220s is merely because of the blocksize debate, but it's not helping. Bitcoins are good for me at $1000 or $100, it's just too useful to not use. Much more useful than some other methods of transferring money. If we let Bitcoin stall behind, we have hundreds of other cryptocurrencies lining up to be the face of cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin will live on, ether in scaled-up core or XT. Meanwhile, there will be more "bitcoin is dead" headlines to add to that one webpage.

Oh, I remember losing control of an account because I didnt change email address. To this day, I still hate ^SourGummies whoever did that.

I cant wait five weeks to get a charger. I'm studying to be a computer engineer! I needed this ASAP. But now I only need BTC0.01 for a different reason, also stated here. What I was going to do to get the 0.096 in my wallet was getting the charger you can see how I (at the time I didnt know I could dump the private keys in my wallet without it downloading the whole blockchain) had trouble accessing money that I needed ASAP. I was then going to get 0.02 from an investment in bitbond.com

Investment isnt the only reasonable thing to needing to lend money! I would ask you if you would issue an apology once I repay my (soon to be active) BTC0.01 loan, but I know that people (people like you, possibly) are very quick to judgement and reluctant to retractions. You are the same type of person as the guy that gave me negative trust just to further his agenda.

Loan Amount:  BTC0.01
Reason:           purchase an item a friend already paid me for.
BTC Address:    19J8nzs2shtyp4Nbjw7p41VmcHckcRQd5K
Term Length:    Until September 1st, before 10PM
Collateral:        This account, Full Member (registered February 15, 2015. 300+ post. 180+ activity) and a Jr. Member account (registered June 2015. 40+ post. 40+ activity). Signed messages available for both.

Am I correct in assuming that "If i get more BTC for your collaterals by selling them as the actual loan was worth i will keep it for the hassel!" is only for those that have not paid by their due date?

Due to the length of the loan, I will willingly pay %20 interest.

I believe that it was just a way to push your agenda by screwing me over. I had an emergency and did all I could do. Ask for a loan with the only collateral I had. I dont want to be dragged into drama, but I would like a cordial discussion of this here in meta (as to not highjack OP's thread). So would you do the honors of presenting the situation?

Given a recent event... I think you should lose that power, as you've abused it. I could be biased, though.
