The amount of posts some people who arent even part of this campaign have on this thread is hilarious, I hope stunna et al arent paying you for them.
Why would they not pay? There's no threads or boards that are off limits. People could easily say you shouldn't be paid for posting in your own campaign thread as it defeats the purpose of the advertising. Ha, who would have guessed that the person who's made 3% of all the posts in this thread would pipe up. People can say that, if Ritz agrees he can automatically reduce the payouts, no skin off my nose. Don't sound so hurt over an opinion, its not a good look.

Right, now the pools have started appearing can we ascertain whos running which ones. There's ; http://moneropool.com http://mon.hashharder.com/and http://cryppit.com/If anyone can put the pools to names that would be great. Also to anyone who's looking to join a pool at the moment it seems that they are in testing and thus not paying out. Just a warning.

Now , since we're talking about China , has anybody some links with shops , websites in China dealing with bitcoins? I've asked about this in December and in February and didn't get that much feedback:).
Are there chinese actually holding bitcoins and not just speculating and trading?
I have no idea and you would be better off asking Chinese members of the forum. Its hard to get a translation on announcements let alone try and work out what they're mainly doing with their BTC.

New fiat will be trickling. Next big thing
In December, the bitcoin community turned to India as its next great hope after Chinese government statements caused the price to drop from its record high of $1,200. India is an emerging economy with a population of over a billion people, nearly half of whom are unbanked or under-served by banks. Another hype based on nothing.. I'm pretty sure the exchange will claim millions in volume while having 100 satoshi in it's wallet. The emerging countries , BRICS , myths about adoptions in Africa... The only real way for bit coin to grow is being used where people have enough money to spend and business eager to accept it. And that's the good old Europe and North America. Sorry but thats quite narrow minded, the amount of wealth in India and other Asian countries is humongous. Yes there are lots of poorer civilians there as well but to suggest that emerging countries dont have the money to spend is just incorrect.

Do you have any proof for that or just rumors?
Its a joke. There would be no way in the world to know if people high up in Chinese banking had bought BTCRumors , rumors but whenever I hear about the importance of China I feel like puking. It was a pump based on fake volume and assumptions. And what is worse , right now people believe that without China we should go back to 100 and ignore every progress made from last autumn. I don't think many people seriously think that, not ones who weren't perma bears anyway. There will always be something be it gox, China etc but its all about their severity. The China situation is a real threat in speculative terms but the actual weight of it is reducing. Even if its just a short pump the market is begging for a rally.

Samir Nasri omitted from the French squad, as the coach thought that including him would harm the squad harmony. People like Patrick Vieira are going ballistic over the decision. So they should, I think not including Nasri is a big mistake.

Well well well, it would seem that the effect of Chinese events and Chinese trade is in fact proportional to China's volume after all. There have actually been many pieces of bad Chinese news in the past weeks which have failed to result in new lows or sometimes even a reaction at all. Meanwhile the volume of chinese exchanges has dwindled to about 1/3 of what it used to be. I suppose, barring a complete shutdown of the Chinese exchanges, we will need to see some news on an entirely different subject to continue the downtrend.
That makes sense. Fake or not, Huobi's volume was by far the largest of all the exchanges and most traders/investors will look where the most volume is and make their decisions based on that. So now that their volume is down the Chinese influence on the price went down as well. If the PBOC wants to gain back control of the price they had better find a way to increase the volume on the Chinese exchanges again or they will soon be history. Why do you think they give a f** about BTC price? Because they've been loading up for the last 5 months

The Chinese government are only trying to protect their own currency (fair enough with the state of the $) but they're going to regret trying to completely stop any real BTC development there.
India is a booming economy and can easily spark the next bull run.

The 1/3 of the volume was to be a sure thing due to no more leverage, no ? This is what certain people have been trying to say for weeks, once the market really moves absent Chinese overlord news, the coiled spring is likely to be released.

The bid sum has increased ~ $1.2mm in the last day or so.

Governments can try and outlaw what they want but who cares.
For a start they cant all agree on anything let alone all simultaneously banning BTC.
The US government tried to outlaw gold in 1933, during the time it was banned to own the price went from $20 to $195. The key difference as well is that you can catch someone with gold but good luck trying to prove someone knows a private key.

Actually your wrong about that. See: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=229438.msg6719122#msg6719122That spike to 12k BTC shorts that your working from was due to someone trying to raise the interest rate. The real number of shorts closed is more like 1000BTC at best. Its like what I was trying to say to windjc yesterday, BTC swaps != actual shorts.

Also, did anything ever come of the Bitpay announcement ?

The bulls BIG accomplishment these last 5 months is grinding the bear market to a halt and destroying any opportunity to trade.
Now we can just sit here for several weeks (months) and stare at each other until we all eventually leave and move on to other things.
Thanks Obama Bulls!
Sorry that the market didnt dump to $10, will make sure next time there's a downtrend that everyone sells everything

That was the weirdest 5 mins of action. Simultaneous pumping and dumping, I know its been boring people but make up your mind

A big dump in cryptonote.exchange.
You mean someone sold some coins about 4 hours ago? Theres an exchange thread if you want to narrate on the goings on with the exchange.
