Just swinging by and don't know whether this has already been mentioned, but there was a hack earlier and 1170 stolen coins seem to have been dumped on Stamp. Could explain a bit.

Links pls, thanks.

There's a new clue, if that helps...
Not really, since that was sort of obvious given the previous games.

To some people  Smiley

Not sure why? Maybe bots are doing this, maybe it's because of Ukrainian bitcoin ATM news, maybe Roger Ver's tweets... Maybe something is about to happen.

I'm liking what that correlates to on the timeline...

is this going to crypto coin sites only or to wider to financial mainstream sites?

If we find a good marketing guy everything is possible


Ok, I thought this was for a specific imminent release? Cassius has a news site right?



Thanks for the input, I think I've got enough to go on, now.
My understanding is it's for specific release, soon. I don't have a news site of my own, though I do write for one or two.

Well I get that the private key itself could be a hidden in the email. Or does it like spell something out? THat's what I'm asking Shocked I'm so confused. omg.

It would be cool if the key WAS the message...
1769  Economy / Games and rounds / Re: Guess the private key, win the bitcoins (puzzle game) on: July 04, 2014, 09:16:48 PM
This last hint confused me, are we looking for a hidden message in his email? Or are we looking for the private key

Wouldn't it be cool if it was both at the same time?

That would be cool, but if it was one or the other that would be help me :p

Sorry, it's not one or the other...  Cheesy


So then there's nothing in the email?

Or...

But seriously - the dumps and hesitancy to rise despite all the good news. There has got to be a limit to the amount sellers can sell (weak hands, strong hands argument).
So what is going on? Where are all the sellers coming from? Twitchy day-traders or early adopters with big stashes taking advantage of better liquidity?
Anyone have any insights, ideally backed up with some evidence like days destroyed or exchange data?

My thoughts always gravitate to it being mostly to do with people just making a bit of extra money but more importantly more coins.

There are very few investments where you aren't trying to come out with a bigger pile of fiat, in general when you trade a normal stock you tend to buy a position and then sell (or buy if you were short) and leave with the profit.

With Bitcoin however people are trying to make more of the 'stock' than fiat (obviously a generalization but can you draw any parallels?) a lot of people are also all in in terms of how much they are willing to invest, to make more BTC and not more fiat without leverage you have to sell and buy back at a lower price. I seriously think this is one of the reasons people are so willing to sell their BTC for the chance to buy it back lower even though the majority of them would have been better to buy and hold.

Short answer, bad judgement: people trying to read the market and accumulate more, probably just coming out worse by giving their coins to others?
Sad world.

Edit: don't know why this surprises me. Short-term thinking is everything wrong with capitalism and the financial sector, and I guess it's what characterises a 'weak hand' in the first place.

Who would've guessed. Best week ever. Nothing but amazing news.
One fuddish news article and down we go.

Seriously how are we ever supposed to go up again if amazing news does nothing and any slightly negative news and it's dump fest.

This current dumping was so expected. They were just waiting for an excuse. Really anything could've done it.
It's all about fear and panic. It's what everyone is waiting for. All day they hoover their finger over the sell button thinking "can i dump already". Then they read a headline "bank EU warning" and bam! Dump!

So sick of it.
I totally understand why new people are afraid to buy. They see that anything, really anything causes people to dump. I wouldn't buy at these levels. I wouldn't advise my friends to buy.


We need to squeeze those longs, free some money up.

I only read you, Shrooms for the quote, because you are ignored some time ago. You seriously should try yoga, meditation, spending time in the beach/mountain. Your post reflex you are having a really bad time, day by day. Stop worring. Breathe. Go nature. It will fix itself.

But seriously - the dumps and hesitancy to rise despite all the good news. There has got to be a limit to the amount sellers can sell (weak hands, strong hands argument).

For those of you who survived the previous episode, here's the next. It works on a completely different principle Smiley

http://bitscan.com/articles/the-hidden-keys-game-the-mystery-deepens

This one was a real brainteaser. The hints haven't helped at all as I already figured out the bible code thing, however I haven't been able to figure out the 3 variables as it seems. Tried several starting points that seemed to make sense. Do we know how long the private key is, or is that part of the game as well?

Looking at previous episodes will help, but there will be more hints too.

After a little research into the arcane subject of Equidistant Letter Sequences, it suggests that you should ignore spaces and punctuation – Hebrew manuscripts didn’t have either of these.
Did they have numbers?

Letters were used as numbers. In this case, I'd keep all 'meaningful' characters  Wink

Monkey sounded an all-clear.  Could still wobble a bit over the next 90 minutes or so, but unlikely to break lower.

Given how weak his daily outlook is -- although it did stop wavering +/-, it is only weakly +ve yet -- I think he is tipping me that this sort of thing may repeat a few times before the next daily-scale impulsive move.

What are monkey's thoughts on bubbles? Specifically speculative ones, I'm not really that fussed about his approach to soapy water.
The idea seems to be very popular around here but they don't seem to want to arrive on time.
1778  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [NXT] Nxt - Official Thread on: July 03, 2014, 01:16:07 PM
But I do take your point : )


Well, I don't see a big move in Bitcoin in the near future, only a gradual one.
With that into account I see more people diversifying into 2-3 innovative alts, including NXT. Those alts will be outperforming Bitcoin. Other alts with no innovations will be slowly dying. No pegs Smiley

Fair play- thank you for your thoughts.

I see a peg at the moment. BTER and others denominate NXT prices in BTC, not USD. You trade against BTC. When bitcoin's price moves, so implicitly does NXT's - unless you actively do something about it.
That will change when there are more/reliable fiat exchanges.
The second thing is that there's almost nothing you can currently do with NXT. Great devs, community, energy, big projects coming soon - but little real-world application right now. Once it's integrated into businesses and services like TXTCoinsNow, MGW and hopefully hundreds of others - that don't necessarily know or care what bitcoin is - then things will change even more. It's coming in the next few months, but not yet.
