Aboriginal people ... The average IQ tested is in the 60's The Flynn effect demonstrates the influence one's environment has on "IQ". Without accounting for this effect in studies between peoples, you cannot claim that it is caused by genetics. In any case, the intellectuals of all races should be allowed to breed a new super race. But you low IQ mofos prevent us. Instead of posting stupid shit about races, you should be out there helping the great minds impregnate as many women as possible, à la William Shockley.

Update on proceedings: the auction for the code and domain is taking place here. As the highest bid is currently 9 BTC, and David Francois (forum user davout) is charging 13.37 BTC as receiver, there is currently another 4.37 BTC deficit for creditors.

Ahahaha GAME.
You know that the word game refers to more than just Hungry Hippo or Grand Theft Auto, right?

As you are much more pessimistic than me (or realistic haha) do you think we could see some low 0.02 or even sub 0.02 ever again? I know we did see some sub $10 (I bought as much as I could at those prices) but I think unless something major happen Ethereum will continue to go up without any effort, $20 by the end of the year should be a lock.
If there is some sort of major run or news before that then I think there's a chance we will see a new ETH bubble and $50 is not out of the question. Things evolve quickly in crypto world unless you are Bitcoin...like I said many times, if more BTC companies start pushing Ethereum, the sky is the limit regarding the actual application of it. If Ethereum actually gets used and adopted in many projects, then prepare for a paradigm shift (I personally don't think we'll see that at least for a couple of years and that in crypto is a lot of time and a BIG if).
Manias and depressions seem to me to characterise the growth in cryptos. If ETH will go to $50, it will either be within the next few months in mania, or will be in the future preceded by many months of depression. I don't see steady growth being at all compatible with how this game works, at least for now. Sub-0.02 possible? Sure, if Bitcoin rallies from the epic wedge that has been forming since last year. I'm somewhat torn here, because I believe it will rally upwards, yet simultaneously the signals I'm getting from ETH are pointing up as well. I doubt Bitcoin and ETH can both go up.

While BTC and ETH can often affect one another in an inverse relationship, it was very obviously not the case when I posted. The rise at the time, 1-5 am UTC, March 28, was clearly due to the article. Anyone who disagrees, show me some convincing evidence to the contrary... here's a hint, you're not going to.

... Dramatic change is coming - but the tiger crouches before it leaps poops. Be patient.
Fixed. Let's be careful out there, Gentlemen. Heh. To be fair, I never said it was going to be positive change. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

**Sigh** When is bitcoin to get an adrenaline shot in the arm? I was told I'd be rich by now before I invested ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Seriously though the halving isn't too far away now & there doesn't seem to be any hint the price will change dramatically. Disappointed. Dramatic change is coming - but the tiger crouches before it leaps. Be patient.

I see a trend here.
Price starts going up: "Woo hoo! Moon gifs!"
Price starts to fall: "Hi I'm a blocksizetard, here is my opinion on development issues"
lol, I think you have this thread cracked ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Back to ETH: price is currently taking a nosedive, spurred by the BTC pump, but also favoured by the technicals. Should be looking for support around .023, then .020 if it fails. I still suspect my target will be met, but we'll see.
I bought some on this drop too but I think it's just correcting due to BTC pump, the price in US dollars didn't change that much to be honest. If BTC keeps pumping hard then I think we'll definitely see sub .02 which would be a great chance to get in. Big rebound today on the NYT article, .0204 may have been the bottom after all. ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif)

Not long to go now till resolution. Looks like it's going to be a close competition with lot of bets around the current price. Warrior B leading the pack atm with the smallest of margins.
Don't forget to take average between bitstamp and bitfinex... Unfortunately CBX are stuck in Cryptsy. I will at least pay out the $25 worth but for the rest I need time. Yes, I was taking the average, but then price changed quite a bit after I posted. Sorry to hear you were a victim of Cryptsy. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

My target is to not have to sell any coins unless I really need fiat in an emergency.
It's not a target price but rather a target date. I'll turn 75 years old in 2023. My amassed bitcoins are my old age pension fund.
Wow, so your beard is really that long ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

We still have to break resistance - so I'm not getting too excited just yet. This is a definitely a bullish sign though.

Good observation. However the majority of miners of the first ASICs were hodling what they mined, thus starving the market about as much as a halving would. It's still the same thing fundamentally. It wasn't until people needed to pay their electricity bills that they would mine and dump. I was one of the first ASIC miners. I still have everything I mined.
The price increasing was the encouragement for miners to hold. I just checked the first bubble after the halving, and hashrate increased by about x3 from when the first ASIC shipped, whereas price increased by about x14. GPU mining would therefore have been at least four and a half times more profitable. Btw, I guess you sold your account then?

That is why I said; It is impossible to separate the influence of first halving from the influence of asic miners.
If you think about your response to this; hopefully you will understand the rest of my last post. You; must; enlighten; me; for; I; am; so; very; dim.

FMP ( for most people ) Show them an exchange rate between two unknowns as a number, and ask them if it will go up or down; they will tell you they don't know.
Show them a chart depicting the last 6 hrs showing a drop and ask them again; they will tell you it will go down.
Show them a chart depecting the last month showing an uptrend; they will tell you it will go up.
chart droppers think everyone is chattel
Schopenhauer said; Everyone takes the limit of their own field of vision as the limit of the world. He didn't realize why Socrates was wise.
Cause and effect do not need to be concurrent. The symptoms of syphilis can present decades after a person is infected, for example. The transmission of force can be swift or it can be slow. I'm not sure why Schopenhauer is making us a visit, or what "chart droppers think everyone is chattel" is meant to signify.
