The required reply when anyone tries to tell you any of the following: 1. Bitcoin is going to crash to zero 2. BCH is the real Bitcoin 3. Craig Wright is the real Satoshi 4. X/Y/Z shitcoin will supersede Bitcoin 5. China bans Bitcoin 6. Governments will outlaw Bitcoin 7. Bitcoin mining is unsustainable and consumes too much energy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GM-e46xdcUo |

Satoshi clearly knew and understood that because Bitcoin is open source and anyone can clone or fork Bitcoin, and anyone can create unlimited number of new coins at will, then the dominance of one form of digital open source money/Gold 2.0 would be decided in the court of public opinion. Not through censorship of Bitcoin's competitors.
So it all comes down to belief/popularity contest of what form of open source digital money should be dominant, with participants basing reason to purchase and use based on sum total of philosophy/moral/ethical/guiding principles, intent of dev team, attributes (security, decentralization, etc., etc.), and growth through usage (via popularity with exchanges, brokers, users, merchants, investors, etc).
And yes BSV is a scam and Craig Wright is a fraud. But that is for the public to decide.

I am not supporting illegal migration. I am simply stating that much of the US economy runs on illegal migrant labor. This is a fact.
A fact that needs to change. Even it crashes the local economy. America will adapt, always has, always will. And no, American teenagers do not want to pick bell peppers out of the dirt in the blazing sun for $2 per hour.
And that's their whole fucking problem, isn't it? Coddled, spoiled, privileged, sitting on their fat asses drinking their $4 lattes and eating $7 avocado toast and $9 millionaire's bacon. All the while crying about illegals taking their jobs. But no worries, when the world economy goes to shit... they'll learn... by picking free grown bell peppers in the blazing sun out of their back yards just to eat. |

I want to be quite clear here.
Would you both support effective US immigration controls even if it causes a recession and wipes out many family businesses?
Edit: they shut down illegal immigration in Australia (mostly Pacific Islands) and the farmers rioted because they had no one to pick the harvest. It will be a hell of a fight in the US as well if immigration is turned off.
Justifying people living in a country illegally, sidestepping all the immigration laws, dodging taxes, and gaining all the benefits of a U.S. citizen therein because "cheap labor" and "other reasons" isn't really a valid argument. It's cognitive dissonance. It's also bullshit. Also, so legal citizens in the U.S. now too privileged and snobby for manual labor? Bloodly hell, American was founded on that shit. |

She didn't say crypto, she said 'distributed ledgers' and 'blockchain technology'. "Not 'distributed ledgers', not 'blockchain technology'. Bitcoin! It's like a finger pointing away to the moon. Do not concentrate on the finger or you will miss all of the heavenly glory!"-Bruce Leesatoshi |

OT: Y'know... the MSM is always blabbering on about how volatile Bitcoin's price is. Have they even fkn looked at Chipotle's 10 yr price chart? Holy smokes. Talk about not understanding its valuation! I wouldn't touch that stock with a hundred foot pole.  |

Do u even Lightning, bro? I suppose not. Too busy P2P "transactioning" with exactly no one on the BSV chain.  And exchange whales colluding and HF wash trading to run up BTC transaction fees doesn't exactly represent true P2P merchant transactions in my book.  But you can go on believing whatever delusion you want. U mad bro? |

Also, today marks two weeks of being officially dry. I'm genuinely beginning to enjoy the clarity. feelsgoodman.
congrats man! i dont drink (maybe one or two on special occasions, so maybe 5 drinks a year). simply because i dont like the buzz drinking gives or id be an alky for sure. but been addicted to other stuff. one substance to the point of almost losing everything. nasty time but a good life lesson on humility and what lack of willpower can do if you let it. It seems different people have different tolerance levels to alcohol, and some do just fine to drink regularly all their life. For me, something changed from my younger years to my older years. When I was young, I could drink regularly and be a "happy drunk", a buzz would lift my mood and spirit. Would routinely go to "happy hour" after work with friends and colleagues. It was all in good fun. Then something changed mid-life; a few bad things happened to me, and then I spent a year drowning my sorrows in alcohol. But I noticed that drinking actually had the opposite effect on me than it did when I was younger. It just made me feel more depressed and down. I lost motivation to do things I always loved doing, and I also started to worry about my health and developing alcoholism. So after that really bad year, I stopped drinking cold turkey for seven months straight. My depression went away completely, mood improved, health improved, and mental clarity got much better. Lost weight. Now I only drink on the rare occasion about once a month, maybe one beer or glass of wine and I'm done with it. It's not a forced thing either, I just don't think about it that much any more. |

Not that I'm a big fan of Coinbase, but I gotta say that this astroturfed smear campaign against them, urging existing users to #DeleteCoinbase and newbies to stay away, has gone splendidly well. The whale market makers know what they are doing.
Can't wait for the inevitable bull run to start, with all these crying n00bs going "But...bbut...you guys said to delete my Coinbase acct, and now I wanna buy more BitcoinTM because the price is rising fast. Now it's gonna take me another month to get verified again for a new account!"
And also "But...bbut...now I can't cash out because I #DeleteCoinbase! Shiitttt!"
Torques' view is aging well it seems. Where is that dude? I'm here  |

Oh I don't doubt this could go all the way to 10k, but this not a new run-up, and I don't think that was really the bottom.
My my you sound so.... unsure now.  We'll track back up to around 9.5 but it won't stick and we'll need to come all the way back down to consolidate in the low 3s and then probably even lower as the last hopefuls are shaken out. That's when you get your $2500 bottom.
I'm betting you're wrong. From their it's anyone's guess what will happen, but you can guess I've got my very own sponsored by BSV-Bias outlook But of course you do, BSV-bias shill. So the BTC chain is still crippled. LN is a dead end
Wrong again, actually LN is growing and thriving like mad. BTC chain fully intact and secure. Quit spreading lies and disinformation. Everyone wanted side chains when they signed up for bitcoin right? Nobody wanted p2p digital cash. I remember It as clear as... oh wait.
LN is completely optional, you can still p2p digital cash to anyone and the transaction fees are lowest they've ever been. But WTF do I know.

It's because in-home spy devices do a better job, plus buyers literally giving consent by owning/using said device. |

Roger Ver’s Bitcoin.com is Reportedly Under Government-Sponsored Attack https://www.newsbtc.com/2019/03/04/roger-vers-bitcoin-com-is-reportedly-under-government-sponsored-attack/Bitcoin.com is likely under a government-sponsored cyber attack, according to owner and crypto investor Roger Ver. "The 40-year old Tokyo-based entrepreneur stated Monday that he received a Google Suite alert about a potential intrusion. He posted a screenshot, indicating that anonymous government-backed hackers were attempting to compromise one of the Bitcoin.com’s email accounts. Here’s the copy of that screenshot:  I hope they gave him a "Log In" button to go and fix it. He should definitely click that link. |

Let's not discuss XRP/Ripple here - it's just a "distraction"! Coinbase CEO tweet in 2015:  Ironic. End of the day it's business LOL Love how Brian A. "pivoted" back to peddling hundreds of shitcoins, ironic that it happened when Bitcoin LN was announced and launched. |

Imagine even imagining that this guy is Satoshi:  I lost my imagination powers LOL With every single tweet, his chances to be TheRealSatoshi TM drop from 0% to way less than zero. The guy has footinmouthdisease |

It's all about distribution, who has the most coins. Most coins == most long term centralized control.
Govt's, Central Banks, Financial Institutions, they'd be all over crypto if they can somehow get control of the most coins.
With any of the shitcoins, sure, no problem, they can get >90%. Esp shit like XRP and ETH. The OGs would eagerly sell out to them. Likely already did.
But with Bitcoin? Nope, not gonna happen. Distribution is pretty great compared to the shitcoins. They can't gain the 90%, thus they can't gain control of it. That's precisely why they hate it, it's popularity, and it's leading market share. They would do anything to create a flippening. But a flippening ain't gonna happen. They tried that, and it failed.
