Because 160,000 BTC are preparing to be dumped on the market. Am I the only one here??
That is not true. It might happen, but you are overly emphasizing the thread or even the impact of 160k coins hitting the BTC market. BTC can easily absorb 160k coins if there is not some of the other FUD going on including.. just FUDsters taking advantage of downward momentum to see if they can get weak hands like you to sell. According to this article, http://fortune.com/2018/03/07/nobuaki-kobayash-sells-bitcoin/, he's been selling since September. It seems he is taking some care to not totally crash the market. To give some perspective, it takes about 92 days to mine 165,000 coins. I think the market can handle it. Although it might hobble along for quite a while. |

Doing some bear planning
What exactly is bear planning? The only strategy that I know is to buy near the bottom, which I did when I made entry in late 2014 and throughout 2015. I really don't want to do margin trading.  The only platform that I can find which allows for US Citizens who are not millionaires is Kraken. However, I don't think I have what it takes to short on margin, because every time that I do, I usually close my position in less than one hour because it is too nerve wracking. |

I notice that Cryptopia's wallet is stuck at block 86399. https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/CoinInfo/?coin=BWKI wonder how long it will take Cryptopia to get their wallet to sync, this time. Hope it doen't take them weeks like last time. To get my wallet to sync, I had to end up deleting everything but the wallet.dat in my appdata folder. It took less than 30 minutes to sync from scratch. Hope the crackerjack team at Cryptopia can figure it out.  Looks like the Cryptopia wallet is now syncing. Good news.  |

Fun part is going to watch everyone try to short the bottom of this little dip.
So you think this is a bear trap? |

Well, if the rules are clear beforehand, and A knows that he won't get money for medicines even if that means dieing, then he has to die for not mowning the lawn (it is HIS decision). There can be some exceptions as if he is disabled and therefore can't do it or is incapable of understanding the rules due to some mental issues. Acting otherwise would be completely unfair.
P.S.: I think I have some "leftist" inclinations for making some exceptions in relation to protect the weak (not the lazy though).
But what if we change the parameters a bit. Let us say that child A is actually the child of the mother and child B is just a stepchild. Child A always gets to play video games and enjoy cake and child B has to work to get some gruel once in a while. Is that fair? There is such a thing as the idle rich. The only thing they have going for them is a birthright. The historical figure Marie Antoinette comes to mind.  |

Is your contact also a Nigerian prince?
No he’s an engineer which makes him more of princess. Be careful before going into such a deal. It could land you an unlicensed money transmitter charge. Also, you would then be stuck with the currency in question to try and offload to someone else. |

Long / shorts ratio just passed 2.0. This is the entry point to a bull market.
Doesn't that just mean its time to whale stomp all of those positions? Or wait for a still higher ratio? The fastest way for a whale to do this would be to short BTC. WThis would make the ratio go back more in favor of the shorts. It takes more BTC to just dump on the open market rather than using leverage for maximum effect. Shoot, you don't even need BTC to open a leveraged short position, a whole bunch of fiat would do. |

OMG, I just woke up and surprised to see that the topic of guns is still running smooth in here. We might have to change the title to "Guns Observer USA" if more of this continues. Let's just get back to the topic guys, to the bitcoin. No hype or FUD about BTC at the moment to get us all riled up. Bullish!  |

You don’t need to repeal the second amendment, you just need the Supreme Court to refine the interpretation. That’s why the nomination of Supreme Court judges is so heavily contested.
The court has been right leaning for quite sometime and hasn't overturned the Roe v Wade decision. You really think a left leaning Supreme court is going to significantly modify the Heller decision? I doubt it. Furthermore, I do not think it is possible to maintain a left leaning court from now until time eternal. So any reinterpretation of the 2nd amendment can just be modified later on down the road. |

heyyyyy
and while we have the constitutional convention convened we can revisit all those other troublesome, obsolete ammendments
sign me up
I don't care for the 16th amendment either. I do think that the repeal to that amendment would have a really good chance of getting ratified by 3/4th of the states. |

The 2nd amendment is the best solution which at least I can see. Sooner or later, America will have to go for it. It'd be better if it's sooner though.
The 2nd amendment rights are too popular. Especially in the rural states. There is absolutely no way that you will be able to get 2/3 of congress to first push it forward and then 3/4th of the states to ratify it. (There is an alternate route of getting 2/3 of the states to push it forward and then get 3/4 of the states to ratify it. I don't see that happening either.) The only amendment that was ever repealed was Prohibition. |

I really hope the America will slowly at least start getting that problem doesn't lie in either Muslims or bitcoin, it lies in the guns.
It's complicated to come up with a solution since the right of the people to keep and bear arms is part of the bill of rights of the US constitution. The only solution would be to have the 2nd amendment repealed which would require at least 38 states to ratify it. I don't see that as happening. My current understanding of how the 2nd amendment is interpreted by the courts is that we must allow the people to keep and bear the arms that would be the minimum necessary so that the people could reasonably form a well organized militia, if need be. I'm not certain how effective a well organized militia would be if all guns were banned. (I'm not sure it is even possible now with the restrictions we already have in place. A sniper with a semi-automatic is no match for a drone.) I personally don't care for the 2nd amendment. However, the law is the law. |

I don't think citizens should be allowed to have guns.
I say this as a gun owner, so I am aware this could seem hypocritical. But the more I look at all of the solutions to the gun debate, the more I feel the only long term solution is to begin the process of removing them.
I prefer our solution here in America: just give everyone guns and let things sort themselves out. Wow, it will be like an old wild west movie. |

Trying to do tax planning. I have thousands of trades across a dozen exchanges in different countries in all sorts of alts. I am really struggling to figure it out so good fucking luck to the tax authority. It would take a CPA 3 months. I’m just going to have to make a best efforts estimate. Half the exchanges don’t even export trade records in .csv. Plus miner fees and dust lost in web wallets etc. Total mess.
I just used this web site, paid the fee and did the best that I could. https://bitcoin.tax/ If the IRS auditors want to do a full audit and end up wasting more resources than they will possibly recoup, C'est la vie. |

selling merits for btc ... all shitcoins get dumped
It's a centralized shitcoin too. Only a few people are sources and the rest of us only got the initial airdrop and can only get 1 smerit for every 2 we are given. I certainly hope most of these sources have scruples and are not selling out. i was just kidding about selling ... apparently its against the rules of the game anyway Well apparently there has been some discussion here for establishing a barter market. Merits for BJs. |
