The leader of the crypto market - agree, I believe it will have >90% dominance in the coming years, as the market will tire from altcoins and tokens being nothing more than pump and dump schemes and unrealistic promises
a niche currency - yes, people are mostly satisfied with fiat and fiat payment systems, very few see the benefits of using Bitcoin, especially considering the downsides
and an alternative investment asset (like now) - you compare it to gold, but Bitcoin's current marketcap is already a single-digit percentage of gold's marketcap, and after a bit of a price rise it will again be a double-digitl percentage. So it could already be called a major asset.
what's your source on gold's marketcap?

5ph and you didn't find any blocks!?
You seem to be underestimating the current difficulty value, 5ph is just close to nothing, it has a chance of 1 in 41,396 at every block, should difficulty remain flat (which it won't), it should take on average 287 days for 5PH to hit a block, so not hitting a block with 5ph that ran for 1 or 2 days is just pretty normal, you should be surprised if it DID hit a block. Josek8 you can run the numbers for yourself here: http://solochance.com/

5PH so a solo pool. ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) I wonder what's the most PH in this pool from a single user. I think the group buy was doing 20PH Wondering here too, at least what the maximum speed is that the pool can support in total, for example, if a 100PH connected to it would it be a problem? It could probably handle all 200EH of the current bitcoin mining network if you could find it. Last big rental was 500PH. Fantastic. On the 500PH rental, where would one rent that kind of horsepower? nice hash has that. did they score a block?

BTC More than just numbers ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Not looking like my rental is going to hit this time round! But consider how spectacular it would have been if it had hit. Hat tip to you for having the balls to go for it.

Thanks Willi.
So basically a group of 20 people put in roughly $450 at current btc usd price in hoping to hit a block. So how long does the hash rental last? One month?
1 day

If I had some bitcoins before I got married, and used bitcoins to buy houses, cars, etc. When the price of Bitcoin went up, I sold Bitcoin. Is this my money my own? Or is it shared by husband and wife? When I get divorced, do I split up my bitcoins?
The fact is this: if it was yours before you got married and you can prove it, then it is yours when you get divorced. That's it.

I've been reading how Coinbase shuts down sex worker's account. I was wondering how do they know account is from a sex worker? They probably don't use your real name in sex work so even if they pass KYC Coinbase can't know unless they do a research on them. Payments are anonyoums. I don't understand
curious. source of your reading?

Keep your money for now, bear market is slowly getting stronger what I'm seeing now is bull trap many will believe that market will recover but they will end up trapped just like 2018, wait for some time GPUs will get cheaper soon I'm also waiting, looking forward to expand my mining farm
do you mine as a hobby or for profit? curious to understand your view on invest in mining versus buy BTC and hold, would you mind sharing your views?

if so, the MINOR-2 wave MINUTE [iii] is going to be spectacular, I could probably do a x2 or more from your mouth to god's ears.

There are (as of now) 14029 cryptocurrencies listed in coinmarketcap.com. A case has been made (repeatedly) for the existence of a bubble in the cryptocurrency market. Yeah, I understand cryptocurrencies are volatile, high risk investments. But, are you guys expecting a market crash anytime soon?
Of course.

At some point I am really messed up and lost in vein when it comes to bitcoin's price. I think that every second it gets more and more a victim of speculation and gets abandoned from its original idea. If bitcoin could perform very well at 6K some months ago, why it become 60K after some months? And then it went back to 30K but was still functioning very smoothly, i.e. it was doing the job it was created for. Again, If bitcoin could perform well at 30K some weeks ago, then why it worth 60K right now? I just don't get it when people say that bitcoin isn't speculated and all of these prices are just natural.
try not to think about bitcoin as an entity independent of market forces, at least in so far as price is concerned. ultimately supply (willingness of producers to satisfy) and demand (price consumers willingness to pay) and the equilibrium thereof is what is at play here: https://ia601600.us.archive.org/19/items/MIT14.01SCF10/MIT14_01SCF10_lec02_300k.mp4

That's steam kinda own decision, for me gaming on blockchain and making money out of it makes more sense that playing games on PlayStation 5 and earn nothing in return, there is a saying that time is money and if money can be made from fun then it's even better, screw steam I love axie infinity
But the purpose of games is to have fun not to make money, I know that even with single player games people are making money when streaming their content and stuff like that but the main purpose of any game is to provide entertainment not a way of life and a way to earn money, now in many games you can sell your gold and items for real money however when you cannot even play the game without tokens and everyone is there not to have fun but to sell whatever they get then this is not an ecosystem that can be maintained long term. it's not about fun or making money. it's a smart move from steam and it's not because they want to, it is because they have to. money laundering through markets the size of those that operate through steam is a paradise for players who know how to maneuver in this space. steam is protecting their market, themselves and players on both sides.

If printing more money is inflation then why printing more gold is not?
Why do people value gold more than money? If more gold is printed then it is not inflation but if more money is printed then how is this inflation? While both are of no use in real life, cryptocurrency is more valuable than gold because you cannot use gold for cross-border transactions. A billionaire may have billions of dollars worth of money, but he can still use a little gold for jewelry. The concept that printing more dollars creates inflation should be eliminated. If printing more dollars causes inflation then people should buy cryptocurrency instead of gold and if that happens then gold will be of no value. Once gold loses its value, a surge in currency will not lead to inflation, because then the value of cryptocurrency will exceed gold.
good trolling
