I started this site http://www.tblob.org back in 2013, intended it to be a "big list" type of site that lists a variety of Bitcoin resources. With busy work schedule and life (had 2 babies born since then), I never found the time to develop it further or market it properly. This is the google analytic traffic stats for last year or so, with my minimal amount of effort. I made around 3 Bitcoin total from running the site for 2 years. The income is derived from listing request (currently 0.05 btc per request, when I started it was 0.25 per request, but I lowered it since Bitcoin has gained a lot of value), and donations. I think this site has lots of potential in the hands of a capable owner, that can develop it further, maintain updates and market it properly. The buyer will receive the domain name tblob.org, and all existing script that is running the site (it's just a simple custom script developed by me, plus a tiny mysql database). I didn't have the time to develop a backend, so updates to the site listing were done by going directly in the database and adding entries there. Bidding will start at 1 Bitcoin. I will not sell the site for less than 1. I will require half payment up front, and then I'll transfer the domain to you, and then send you the site script once I receive the rest of the payment. Thank you and serious bidders only.

History is re-unfolding right in front of our eyes.
Over the past 2 years, we've seen how bitcoin rocketed to over $1200, only to fall gradually to $150, finally settling around $250.
Recently, bitcoin seems to be repeating this behavior. First it seemingly rocketed to over $500, only to fall back down to $370 currently. Where it will settle down to is a good question to ask at this time; how long it will take to go down there is another good question.
Judging by the posts with naive people calling for million dollar bitcoins, we are in for a rough landing.
$250 is still higher than the previous ATH $240, before the $1200 bubble. Basically I'm seeing the stable price is higher than the previous ATH after each bubble settles.

The east is so damn oppressive.. it's saddening.
Yes, the mindset is basically anything that's new and inordinary, banned first, ask questions later. Watching porn is still banned in China, you can be arrested just for watching porn in your home. (This has happened several times). One guy got 20 years in prison in China, for operating a porn website (servers were in the US, not even in China)

Heck! This will bring up that shitty "wealthy elite" thread again .... and all the moon threads

You are missing $1000, and $2000 as options
I don't Believe Bitcoin is going to stabilize at $1000 or $2000 for now. Its very unrealistic, Unless people become rapidly start to switch to bitcoin. Who believed Bitcoin was going to stabilize at $250, when they bought it at $5 a few years ago?

6 months before last halving, Bitcoin went up 300%, then 24000% in the year after the halving.
Are people hopping on the train earlier this time around?

We still have almost a year of current mining rewards. This hype will not last.
I wouldn't call less than 35 weeks "almost a year", It's 8 months. 6 months before last halving, Bitcoin went up 300%, then 24000% in the year after the halving. This time people are just acting earlier in anticipation.

They are the same country (China), but different regime, for example: East and West Germany around 30 years ago, is one of them not Germany? or North and South Korea today, is one of them not Korea? China and Taiwan are NOT the same country. Look at a map.

It actually is probably due to the halving, the last run up started 6 months before the 1st halving. I don't see why it should be different this time. Decreasing daily money creation by 50% is a HUGE deal.
Don't you think the effect of halving is still too soon I expect for the price to rise on february not on october Maybe this is just price manipulation it was just a small spike i believe as the price is much smaller right now
It is not a spike, the price has been increasing rapidly this few weeks,something is causing this In the last round, prices started to rise significantly 6 months before the halving (from around $5 to around $12). Though, yes you are correct, the majority of the rise happened after the halving.

What kind of fucking retard CFO inputs his email credentials on a 3rd party website, this should be common sense if he only started used Internet for a month. No fucking legit website is going to ask you to input your fucking email credentials.
I don't really blame the CEO on this, since how the fuck would he know his CFO is a fucking retard without common sense.

Faster blocks > bigger blocks
Faster confirmation is what the user wants

It is pretty clear that if he used his bitcoins then will it have a big impact on the bitcoin price. The market cannot absorbe 500K bitcoins, they price will colapps and his project will be in vain. I think that reward from block 0 will never be touched, its a historical milestone.
The Winklevos twins how many do they have? 150.000? Some guy mined on company server early in the game, and have like 330k Bitcoins. I wonder what happened to him.

Hashrate can not really be "wasted", since the entire thing is actually one gigantic waste of electricity anyway.
You mean, all of bitcoin is a gigantic total waste of time? Like, because we're going to die anyway or something? I don't follow. No Bitcoin is great, Bitcoin PoW mining however, is one gigantic waste of electricity. The Hashrate can not be "wasted", because ALL of it is being wasted already, doing no useful work.

I can never understand why increase the block size, instead of keeping the 1MB block size and increasing blocks per hour from 6 to 120. You get the same result, but better user experience.
You're late as this was already suggested. People have suggested faster blocks, implementing things from altcoins and whatnot. Each solution is more flawed than the other. The main problem is that we can not really agree to what solution would be best. Sure, there are some decent proposals but each have cons as well (including the block size increase). Faster blocks have been suggested here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1057423.0Orphans, wasted hashrate and centralization are the main cons to this proposal. Hashrate can not really be "wasted", since the entire thing is actually one gigantic waste of electricity anyway. So if all miners "waste" the same amount, it end up still being fair. Orphans are the same, if everyone gets them, then it's end up being fair. Centralization, I don't really see how having more blocks per hour leads to centralization. If anything, it leads to LESS centralization, since it's much easier for small time miners to solo mine a block if we have 120 blocks per hour.

Can't wait to get my hand on the new BTS client.

They used a distinct address for each email sent, so we wouldn't know how many people fell for it.
|

They are pretty sophisticated, even generated separate Bitcoin address for each email.
