241  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Gox buy their way out of this mess? on: February 25, 2014, 12:49:33 AM
Now I'm not talking about peoples money, I mean profit. Money that Mark can reinvest into the company to buy coins and become solvent.

I believe the bug is long fixed but extra work is being done to improve standards. I also believe that Gox lost a lot of coins that need to be replaced in order to survive, a challenge that Gox is/should be working on. I also think this so called lawsuit will be dropped once withdraws are opened and I don't believe that Mark will disappear as that would pi$$ off a lot of ruthless individuals. So my only concern is that Gox has enough funds to buy their way out of this mess but how much funds are needed? At what price? does Gox have enough? Essentially, can they buy their way out of this?

Your thoughts.

Please no fud or trolling and no trolling or fud please.

So far I have seen no evidence that Mt.Gox is in a 'Mess' and needs extra money to 'buy their way out'.
Can somebody actually provide some kind of reference for this allegation? It seems that many people on this forum believe in the hype that everything that's happened at Gox is because they have no money - that has no basis in fact that I can see.
If anyone can prove me wrong, please be my guest.

This forum used to be about Speculation when I joined in 2011. While there are still posts of what I consider high quality, my impression is the the amount of junk / troll posts and even threads has considerably increased. Sure, posts like https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=483658.msg5323143#msg5323143 always happened, but not in the density we see today.

I am wondering if most users of this forum see it as a garbage can where frustrated people can dump their intellectual excrement or if that is a minority polluting this forum for the rest of us.

The poll question asks - what should this forum be?

But here you are saying that you are wondering how people see this forum.

That is illogical captain.
243  Economy / Speculation / Re: Hope those suckered into the GOX rally lose everything on: February 23, 2014, 10:38:39 PM
No withdrawals, no prospect of them happening, but fools being parted from their money.

fuck off
244  Economy / Speculation / PayPal & Ebay to Integrate Bitcoin - get ready for $10,000 + on: February 23, 2014, 07:20:03 AM
If and when this happens, bitcoin will soar massively for sure.

"Ebay CEO, John Donahoe, suggested in a Bloomberg interview yesterday that PayPal is working on integrating Bitcoin into its payment processing platform."

245  Economy / Speculation / Re: POLL: Who is sending more fiat to Gox to buy $100 coins? on: February 22, 2014, 04:40:44 AM
Seems like the cheap coins buyers are overtaking the sodlers.
hodlers as always make up the majority.
At least the panic isn't as bad as I thought.
246  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why didn't MtGox halt trading like they've done in the past? on: February 21, 2014, 10:34:31 AM
There's a million and one conspiracy theories on this forum.
How about this one...

1. Gox really did have a bug in their bitcoin software.
2. They need to fix it like they said they do - and need to stop withdrawals to fix it.
3. 99% of bitcoin investors are either paranoid freaks or paranoid fat cats and so they all freaked and decided to sell loads of their coins - because they all read way too much into the hype and hysteria.
4. The price on Gox therefore tanked.
5. They will fix the bug and go right back to where they were before this happened.

Hmmm... almost tooooo simple?
247  Economy / Speculation / Re: OMG! How the hell can I lay my hands on some of these $110 bitcoins, speculate? on: February 21, 2014, 10:30:52 AM
I'm grinding my teeth here.

Seems like you need to go through Mayzus MoneyPolo now. So you need to register with them and then you can deposit as much fiat as you want and buy $100 bitcoins.
248  Economy / Speculation / Re: POLL: Who is sending more fiat to Gox to buy $100 coins? on: February 21, 2014, 06:31:36 AM
no one needs to send anymore USD to Gox to buy BTC.

there's already plenty there ready to be mobilized.

no one?

Anyway - this poll is getting more interesting. Seems like a LOT more people are starting to trend towards buying the cheap coins instead of running away from them. Good news is you ask me.

EDIT: Looks like the Gox price has hit bottom and is starting to rise.
249  Economy / Speculation / Re: POLL: Who is sending more fiat to Gox to buy $100 coins? on: February 21, 2014, 05:14:27 AM
so far we've got 50/50 buying and selling on Gox - so how does that cause a price crash?
250  Economy / Speculation / Re: POLL: Who is sending more fiat to Gox to buy $100 coins? on: February 21, 2014, 04:59:40 AM
more pollers please!
251  Economy / Speculation / Re: POLL: Who is sending more fiat to Gox to buy $100 coins? on: February 21, 2014, 04:26:29 AM
If poll indicates the general market sentiment, then its pretty clear that some kind of manipulating is going on right now.

I think it needs a bit more time to judge that. It will be interesting to see for sure...
252  Economy / Speculation / POLL: Who is sending more fiat to Gox to buy $100 coins? on: February 21, 2014, 03:52:48 AM
is anyone sending more fiat to Gox to buy cheap coins? Or is everyone selling their coins?
253  Economy / Speculation / Re: Who is selling BTC for $100 on Gox and why? on: February 21, 2014, 03:41:51 AM
Thank god I set "MatTheCat" to ignore so I don't have to read any more of his whining garbage.

Thanks for the useful comments everyone else!
254  Economy / Speculation / Who is selling BTC for $100 on Gox and why? on: February 21, 2014, 02:44:02 AM
Can someone explain to me why anyone would be selling their bitcoins for $100 on Gox?
I don't understand how there can be so many people doing that to cause the price drop on Gox.
Considering that is not much real evidence to say that they are going bust or something - is this really caused just by people panic selling? Or is something else going on.

Serious answers only please.
255  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Mt.Gox Class Action Suit on: February 20, 2014, 11:11:51 AM
About how much money do you talk?
100k ? 1M?

ha ha that shut up that prick!
256  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you see the price of BTC above $5000 by the end of 2014? on: February 20, 2014, 11:08:17 AM
yes
257  Economy / Speculation / Re: GOX ANNOUNCEMENT - No withdrawals yet! on: February 20, 2014, 10:55:14 AM
Fucking hilarious.... the guy from the UK rocking up with his protest is probably the "security issue" which has forced them to relocate!! You couldn't make this up.

Yeah there's probably a ton of wankers like that twat from England who turned up there 'protesting'.
You put your money into something like Gox or Bitcoin and you take your chances. There's no indication at all that they want to steal anyone's coins. Just a bunch of paranoid losers who have nothing better to do than make a big fuss.

So Gox decided to go somewhere more secure - sounds like a very good idea.
258  Economy / Speculation / Re: The Bitcoin Conspiracies Thread on: February 19, 2014, 08:45:56 AM
Ok, here's a good one for ya:

<tinfoil hat>

The U.S. Govt current prints about $65B per month right now, correct?  So they decide they want to crash the bitcoin market, cripple confidence, and hopefully get rid of bitcoin all together.  So they take just $1B (a fraction of what they print per month, but 10% of the current bitcoin marketcap), use operatives to buy huge stashes of early adopter and old miner coins, and then systematically flood the market with coins.  Crashing the price to double digits.  Folks panic sell in droves.  Blood in the streets.  The exponential trendline is broken for good.  It's over.

</tinfoil hat>

Interesting.... If it's true that the US maybe even in conjunction with other Nations could easily just buy 10% or 20% of the bitcoin market and then sell then all cheap to crash it - then doesn't that imply that they actually don't want to do that? Because they could have already done it right? Easily. So therefore maybe bitcoin was actually made by the Fed or whoever as the solution to the unstoppable collapse of the USD. Maybe they invented it - and already have massive ownership of the market.
Maybe they are just beta-testing it out right now with us to see if it works before they integrate it into their banking systems.
It is interesting that the Reptillians or whoever have been working towards a cashless society for years and then bitcoin comes along. So convenient. A digital cash that instead of being hated by the anti-establishment types, is actually embraced by them. Genius.
And all along it was all run by the same Banksters as before.

Aaahh - bollocks. I don't believe that.


259  Economy / Speculation / Re: Here's what the Mt. Gox Press Release will say and why on: February 19, 2014, 08:13:10 AM
I think on Friday a lot of people here will feel very silly. Gox will do what they said they will do and that's the end of it.
260  Economy / Speculation / Re: Time travelers are still speculators. on: February 19, 2014, 08:06:57 AM
lol time travelers...

i've been where you are now not to long ago. i ended up in the hospital.... you maybe be under more stress then you realize, "time travelers are still speculators ".  you really NEED to step away from bitcoin speculation for a while, and get some sleep / lots of rest, maybe take a few days off... you're talking crazy talk.




hmmmmm... who's talking crazy talk?!!
