I should be so lucky. My bank issued me with a death warrant this morning.

I'll start to sweat about potential losses around the end of this decade. In the meantime I'll expect there to be periods of sorrow and euphoria.

Good news has no effect in a bear market, but very positive effects in a bull market.
I wouldn't have thought they were any more reactive to news than bear markets. And bull markets are far more fleeting. The only example I can think of was the senate hearings where it exploded as the vital sentences were uttered but that was potentially real make or break stuff.

Most credit cards and banks cover for unauthorized losses, which BTC does not have this insurance.
But they pass this cost of fraud onto the consumer, effectively raising the price of everything you buy. BTC insurance could become a fairly large industry. Citation please? People here say that a lot but I've never seen any proof that fraud is a line in COGS I assume the merchants are subsidising that in the fees they pay.

I think we can safely predict that a whole load of cool developments will continue emerging. As for the price I'll just be battered among the waves like everyone else and see where it ends up.

The true strength of Monero can be seen by having people who are frightened by its existence. This forum thread is a perfect proof that the scammy Bytecoin's users are extremely jealous, foreseeing the success of a truly anonymous and fairly distributed coin, XMR.
I'm not sure it's fear or jealousy as much as cheerleading fatigue.

Ugh. That gold spillage ain't too pretty.

He guesses that the conference will have big news.
This. When is the conference? Starts in three or so hours.

So WTF was the man in twitter talking about??? Nothing happened....yet
yeah whatsup with the fat Adam guy, anyone has news? Must be Miami conference related, right? Why not just tweet the news yesterday? Probably because there is none. Pay attention. http://dailyhashrate.com/2015/01/16/adam-guerbuezs-big-news/Lyft or Uber would announce Bitcoin support? Making sense to me, coz these two are competing fiercely. Using bitcoin to do a free marketing is definitely a no-brainer for any one of them. According to this thread it looks like Tether is going to soon become operational on Bitfinex. Could this be the big news? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=926366.0How many people on Planet Earth know what Bitfinex is? And what infinitesimal fraction of that infinitesimal fraction would give the remotest shit about this?

That news is a pinned item from December.
Could be nothing, but that was interesting, I hadn't thought of the fact that he has FB in common with the Winklevosses. And the Winklevii aren't going to team up with a guy of that calibre, or total lack thereof, if they have any desire to be taken seriously.

The children and psychos who have been operating much of the actual infrastructure are a far bigger issue than any technical spec.
Once all that shit has been cleared out we just might see what it can really do.

He was obviously bull shitting, fishing for populars. Fishing indeed but if it's anything it'll be announced at BTCMiami and that doesn't start for a few hours yet.

Could we now please go sub 200 to prepare two-digit prices? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) 2 digit prices are such a selfish request. It's almost a one way street, literally nobody will think bitcoin is a good investment if the bubble collapses at a lower rate than when it started, after a full year of VC's and overall pretty good news. If it does happen though I think I'll double down my investment, but I certainly hope we don't, I'm tired of these smug bears shitting up this thread with their doom and gloom circle jerking. Tip: Bitcoin is not an investment. Bitcoin is a digital currency. Think about Bitcoin as an investment and you will fail. Currencies are treated as investments across the world. BTC wouldn't be within a light year of where it is today without people treating it as an investment. I'm not saying that's right or wrong but that's how it is.

I don't care about him, just what this announcement is.
Some interesting stuff will no doubt be announced at BTCMiami and he'll frame whatever the juiciest titbit is as his tip all along. Lots of attention gained with little to no risk.

double digits
Single Digits! To hell with bitcoin ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Anything over $1 is clearly a bubble... $0.02 is a fair price... After years of research I have valued the entire BTC space at the same level as my arse. As no one has ever offered me hard currency for it, even for a few minutes' rental, this does not bode well for my position. Ah well.

I expected more interesting news for this friday..
I don't think this is the news a certain podgy attention seeker is talking about. It's in the deep past for starters.

Damn Im new to all this btc/trading stuff!!! whats a bull-trap? please go easy Im new lol I am proud owner of 2.5btc - been buying incrementally over past month or so.
Am I a fool???
A bull trap is an upwards price movement that fools people into buying in before another fall.

I'm not so sure there'll be any type of pump in the near future. Whether it likes it or not, the BTC space is getting a hard reset.
In the long run that might set it up as a viable currency. Right now it's all a disgusting mess.
