As we should all be well aware, the mempool activity can not be firmly correlated to any pricing action. Having said that, things are getting spicy today. https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#1,24hHODL. I think it's just Jbreher spamming the network I think all y'all oughter at least ponder the possibility that the entity that was spamming* back in 17 was core/Blockstream. It's arguable that the blocking of the stream was the coalescing event that finally bribed the community into accepting The SegWit Omnibus Changeset. And that without such blocking of the stream, the community never would have accepted the segwit poison pill. edit: forgot the asterisk: * In my mind, anything that pays the fee is by definition not spam, so... If you disagree, then please provide a description of an objective test that can be applied to any tx in order to classify it as spam/notspam.

BCash is dying.
You seem to be gravely mistaken. BCH is up over 6% today. Are your incorrect blatherings driven by ideology?

Before any superstitious sorts start thinking my trip up will lead to some kind of rally, I should warn you that I'll be coming back down in a few days.
So what you're saying is... You're gonna initiate a bulltrap followed by a beartrap?

Well that's audacious. How the hell can something like that be sustainable? Say if they lend it out at 20% Yeah, that was pirate@40's claimed biz model. Again: unsustainable. As someone pointed out above: Not yo keys, not yo bitcoin.

Fuck McAfee. .. and yeah, he would literally become a queen at that point,
I don't care who ya are - that there's funny. While I don't agree with the bulk of your post, coffee on the monitor gets a merit. Rules is rules.

Bitcoin Transaction Volume Nears All-Time-Highs Despite Gloomy Market Conditions
Careful what you wish for. How much further can it grow before 'chapaign' [sic] induced autoerotic asphyxiation? One word .... lightning... And again - if there's no room in the blocks to open a channel...

Episode 2 of the seastead docudrama. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c83TiSJ6sfAYou even get a glimpse of the interior of the seastead. Everyone keeps requesting we show them video of the inside but neither Nadia nor I are clean freaks so cleaning has not been a priority yet. No guests means nobody to judge. Ooh boy! A Cliffhanger! Points for 'middle finger to oppressors'.

Haha, When Jihan said this it was the moment I knew for sure that b-cash was a scam/distraction/dead coin/not the flippening, etc. Then Roger would reconfirm every time he opened his mouth. Well, that makes little sense. Jihan's outburst predated the bitcoin fork by over a year. 2016 May: https://twitter.com/JihanWu/status/7319026863799336972017 Aug: Fork

I can name 3000 coins that literally came out of my ass that can do the same thing. No you can't. There is only one bitcoin, and when push comes to shove (for example if they were under government attack or traditional banking attack), all 3,000 of those supposed coins that you cannot even list would not have liquidity or network (node) effects to accomplish such with impunity like bitcoin can. What? Muster up the measly 2.8 million US dollars of total aggregate system-wide value that the LN contains? Au contraire, mon frere. I am referring to bitcoin as a package, and lightning is one optional and supplemental component of such bitcoin package. Good for you. But the topic is #LNTrustChain -- which is clearly specific to Lightning. Don't get LN mixed up with the real bitcoin
Thanks for the injection of reality. Although every time I point out that Lightning is not Bitcoin, a buncha nattering nabobs jump down my throat.

Monday- Wake up - See BTC price is down
- Get pulled over by police on motorway for speeding - Points & a fine coming now
Could today get any worse? Don't ask. Not wise to tempt fate. Often waves of three.

I'm getting really fucking tired of this middling bullshit between $3,500-$4,000.
Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiitttttt...
C'mon Bob. It ain't so bad. Let's do some visioning. Breathe deeply. Close your eyes. Picture 2016 you. Now imagine 2016 you thinking about $3500 BTC. Let the warmth wash over you.

My phone is looking tired, I'm not looking forward to working out how to change the 2fa to a new phone. Internet instructions are vague.
Quite difficult. Disable 2FA on all your accounts. Setup Authy on the new phone or web, encrypted with a unique secure password. Configure new 2FAs for all your accounts on Authy. Next time you need to move phones will be trivial since you used Authy. Don't do that! The very basic idea behind 2FA is to not allow "transfer" of same 2FA code to new device! Interesting assertion. Back when I was a corporate employee, standard practice was to install token seed certificate on multiple devices. Though 2FA is confusingly hard to use. I may be mistaken, but I think Authy tries to solve the device portability challenge by keeping a copy of your seed to themselves at some central server? Seems like a terrible design to me. I don't know why this industry has not coalesced around some sort of seed scheme like BIP44.

Chuckling to myself over the righteous indignation in the twitterverse over #deletecoinbase, by hordes of critical thinkers absolutely fine with the fact that the CEO of the largest investor in Blockchain was the Chair of the Bilderberg group.
That is not correct! They are just one of a large pool of investors. You didn't contradict what I said. Other than just to tell me that I was incorrect. 'Largest' implies that they are not the only.

A question please: I think people were discussing their music production stuff, maybe bob and some other Europe guys?, somewhere in this thread years back. I cant find it, so sorry for the OT. What was the software you were recommending? could I use it for multi track recording? guitar, vocals etc?
Used to have a guitar studio thing and a friend gave me propeller head reason to make beats with. But that is all some years ago on old computers long since dead.
Plenty of good choices. Some are both Win & Mac, others single platform. Linux versions are somewhat scarcer. Most leading DAWs have been copying the good features of their competitors for some years now. They're more alike than different. It's hard to go wrong with any of them. Pro Tools used to be the industry standard for professional applications, though its dominance is slipping. I'm currently using mostly Logic, StudioOne, and Ableton Live - each are better suited to differing applications. Though if required, I could use any one of them (or most other leading platforms) for just about anything I need to do. If you select BWAV for your recording file format, you can freely exchange recorded tracks between any of the major DAWs. GarageBand is free if you own a Mac, iPad, or iPhone. Comes with plenty of software instruments. Good to get started, though I wouldn't want its limitations if it was my only DAW. Presonus offers a free limited edition of StudioOne. Cross platform. Again, probably all you'd need for your first forays. Though I don't know its limitations - I own the fully equipped edition. You might want to grab one of those to poke at, and figure out what your preferences are.

The battle cry #DeleteCoinbase is resounding across crypto Twitter as bitcoin users close their accounts to protest a controversial acquisition by the exchange.
These users are upset with Coinbase for acquiring Neutrino because that blockchain analytics outfit’s executive suite – CEO Giancarlo Russo, CTO Alberto Ornaghi, and CRO Marco Valleri – previously spearheaded projects for the startup Hacking Team, which sold spyware to several governments known for human rights abuses.
Chuckling to myself over the righteous indignation in the twitterverse over #deletecoinbase, by hordes of critical thinkers absolutely fine with the fact that the CEO of the largest investor in Blockchain was the Chair of the Bilderberg group. Consistency, people. Principles of convenience?
