Got a lifetime of celebrating ahead of you, you lucky boy!

Less than 60 days for the halving!

Yeah, things are really picking up now. Price even up today, 0.26%.
No match for contemporary cryptos like ETH of course (that did SIXTEEN TIMES better @+4.11% Shocked), but taking into account Bitcoin's archaic tech and crippling public image issues, we're doing better than expected.
I remain cautiously optimistic Smiley

Pah. Walking billboards and nothing more. If you paid them enough they'd probably turn up dressed up as giant turds. And smell like them for a bit more.

Well yeah, no "probably" about it, that's what they do for a living. In Iggy's words, "You're paying five bucks and I'm making 10,000."
If I was them, I'd turn up dressed as a giant turd for less than I'd charge to wear those creepy sausage casings.

not its not. bitcoin is the currency of the people and it will be for ever inshallah. i am very much hope and as i saw the people entering in the world of bitcoin it is really fantastic.
Arabs use bitcoins and we can easily find them on bitcointalk. It's just need to check Other languages/locations topic and there we can find some threads by arabic people.

Cool
how do you get bothered by just an arabic words? doesn't mean to offend you but seems you want to get this post getting out of topic by the way
Who said anything about being offended? It's not just an Arabic word, it's a funny Arabic word, roughly "if Allah wills," or "God willing." It's this juxtaposition of spirituality and the profane, of God and Money, that I find particularly pleasing.

I really admire how calm everyone is being.



You are being calm, everyone ... right?  Please tell me you're not sobbing quietly somewhere?  Not planning anything drastic?
31  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Theymos: “Bitcoins Belonging to Satoshi Should Be Destroyed” on: May 12, 2016, 12:20:47 AM
I'm keen on the raffle idea. Smiley

A million otherwise wasted coins that I can has. To hodl. And call my own.
Only let's do this now, preemptively, & not wait until it's too late, like we did with that blogsize thing.
32  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Theymos: “Bitcoins Belonging to Satoshi Should Be Destroyed” on: May 11, 2016, 11:56:34 PM
BTW, if you still have old Franc notes from 2001.  They are worthless now, because you can't exchange them into Euro anymore.  It is estimated that the "destroyed" Francs would have been worth about half a billion Euro.

That's what I say too. That satoshi character aught to know how unsafe it is to leave so much money on the blockchain without transacting with it, he should be protected from himself by someone wise, like Thermos.
Plus we'll never have to worry about him dumping a million BTC on the market again, a single individual shouldn't have that kind of power.
P.S. is there any way we could distribute those coin? Maybe hold a raffle?

Bitcoin Block Reward Halving Countdown:
Only 60 more days!

t = (new algo => Manchurian Mining Rebellion Disaster => End_Of_Bitscoin) = 3110400 = 36 days Shocked

Seriously, with rumblings like https://news.bitcoin.com/theymos-bitcoins-satoshi-destroyed/
 and http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2016-May/012652.html , I just don't understand why no one is panicking Undecided

There's a scramble to develop new quantum computer resistant cryptography now. Bitcoin will have to swap to it sooner or later, at which point a decision will need making about Satoshi's coins if he doesn't claim them by then.

>develop new quantum computer resistant cryptography
Huh, think we'll come to an agreement re. blocksize by then? Will the new algo work with Blockstream Lightning Network?

>a decision will need making about Satoshi's coins if he doesn't claim them by then.
I bet a decision is being made right now about your coins. Hurry up and find a new store of value before Thermos pockets protects it for you Cheesy
36  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 11, 2016, 05:51:05 PM
At some point old pubkey coins might be easily hackable.

Whelp, that certainly puts my mind at rest Cheesy Seriously tho, isn't our money protected by maths and stuff? Wasn't that factually and scientifically proven and rhythmically guaranteed?

But if you say bitscoin doesn't scale and is easily h4xx0rable, I guess I'm all in (but u gotta promise not to hax9r me, K?)

Amir Taco belongs in a high school garage band somewhere instead of Bitcoin:

Now if it was on a Segway *and* firing a couple of AR-15s with 3D-printed lowers *at the same time,* in *Australia*...

Why would anyone chose to get paid in BTC, which they can't spend in 99.9% of the places they spend fiat? Or are you talking about that make-believe land of Equestria, where pastel ponies are happy to "transact" in Bits? 

Because they're not a criminal and don't wish to support the counterfeiters?  Because they don't wish their assets to be devalued?  Because $450 is more that $1 ?  It's called Earth and you will find plenty of people are willing to trade things for other things here Smiley  You can negotiate the relevant quantities.  Equestria is a made-up place where people only accept as valuable what a small group of teenagers say is valuable rather than looking with their eyes at marketplace activity.  

That makes zero sense.
39  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is not the currency of the people and likely never will be on: May 10, 2016, 03:05:37 PM

Fiat will always be the first choice of people and there is no doubt about that, but people who are tech friendly and loves to spend time online will prefer to use bitcoin.


I'll bite, sure.  What "people" would choose a privately issued scamcoin as their first choice of exchange commodity? 

The people who get paid in it and buy things with it. Because stores take it.
The people that don't buy digital tokens in hopes of becoming fabulously wealthy by sitting on their ass, those people.

No, I asked who would choose to get paid in it.  Your answer "the people that chose to get paid in it" is hardly very illuminating.
