and let the purple posts every 100 ft serve as the traditional Texas warning to officially "Fuck around and find out"
I find that you are doing purple fence posts to be so delightfully appropriate. Your color... and one the locals most likely know to respect. I guess the tradition goes back. My moms side of the family were country folk. I used to visit my grandfather in rural NC and we would take a couple cane poles for fishing. We fished in a creek on his property, but that was on the edge of his neighbors property. My grandfather, a man of few words pointed out a post with a purple top and asked me if I knew what it meant. Nope, I said. And he told me, it's a friendly way to warn people "if you go on that land they'll shoot ya" (the way my grandfather said it was more like "shoochee" lol). Is this a US thing or a local Texas thing, I have never heard of it before.  |

Thanks for that. Interesting. BTW, is it just me, or is reddit really so messed up and poorly designed for browsing posts? I just hate it every time I visit. I find it hard to navigate... Can't stand it, always get lost in reddit type threads. |

@Heuristic. I thought you played this game every year. You also try your best next time, okay? Be snappy hehehehe.
Didn't play last year and did zero studying up on new players so went into the draft a little behind the curve. But I'm all caught up to speed for next year and I made the playoffs in another league that I didn't draft every single guy that got injured. |

“11 years ago today, Satoshi Nakamoto sent his final public post on the #Bitcoin forum.
The genius to change the world, the humility to walk away ✨” I seriously regret I never got the chance to talk to them. Who knows, maybe one day. Maybe you have already. You know something I don't? Undoubtedly. but not in this context. |

... More additions may include the notoriously bad mannered Hueristic,...
Fuck you.  To be fair I spend a large portion of my life reading this thread and usually only reach for the keyboard if triggered.
EDIT: Woops forgot the smiley! |

Friendship is earned. Not given.
Good grief.

Is there some kind of segwit for monero by the way? Or would that ruin privacy?
"SegWit fixed an issue called transaction malleability, which enabled BTC transaction data to be changed before the network processed these transactions." Why would Monero want to fix something that is not and never was broken? I'm so disappointed. This has been one of my favorite coins for years, and everytime I buy it because it seems relatively low compared to the rest of the market.
It has pretty much agreed that Monero has been suffering an attack from centralized exchanges issuing naked shorts and creating paper Monero in a fractional reserve capacity thereby selling shorters Monero that just doesn't exist in order to suppress the price and drive people away. This has been proven by the fact large exchanges have frozen withdrawals due to "liquidity issues" which would only happen in a fractional reserve system. If you want to hold Monero you should expect TPTB to continue to attack the system until they can either find a way to manipulate it to their advantage or concede (which those in power NEVER do). So with all that being said, If you are just a NGU fanboi then this is not the coin for you as it is a down and dirty trench fight. BTC is held in high regard by the banking community now so if all you want is NGU then that is the place for you. Stay clear of shitcoins. Monero for money and bitcoin for wealth storage and you will win long term. |

“We are helping regulated businesses look at transactions on the blockchain and completely support people’s rights to financial privacy,” said Tom Robinson, Elliptic’s chief scientist. “If funds are seen to come from a shielded address, that might then trigger some additional compliance processes.” “One of the core differences between us and Chainalysis is that they are really focused on law enforcement and so they will have customers who are asking them to de-anonymize the likes of Monero,” said Robinson. “We provide transaction screening tools for exchanges and don’t plan to offer our functionality on something like Monero where everything is private by default.” |

That's absurd to believe that. As the Bitcoin market gets bigger, volatility in either direction gets smaller. The main reason is because leverage stays relatively flat, i.e., the same amount of leverage applied to an ever increasing sized market has less and less of an effect over time in either direction.
Also the added liquidity (derivative markets) will peak at a certain point and then taper off in proportion to the cap. |

I saw this PlanB tweet after I had already drafted and posted my above post... and surely I think that PlanB and I are saying similar things - but he seems to like to get his lil selfie into trouble with his use of absolutes... but whatever.. he can do his lil thingie..
I coined what I consider a pretty cool saying on the subject. When you speak in absolutes, you are Always wrong. |
