I don't consider your initial investment very wise, but I must admit I'm impressed that you didn't fold.

We're currently paying ~10% of the network's worth, per year, to secure it. In other words, we're paying $1 to store $10 for a year.

1. Is this optimal?
2. If a bank charged you 10%, yearly, to store your money, would you use it?

3. What does it matter? They use to pay $1 to store $1. If that wasn't sufficient discouragement, $1 for $10 sure isn't.

from what ive read it seems pretty convincing, i know some have said about the emails being fake and some ot the forum posts have been edited, but i would gave to say it the most convincing so far.......

There is only one true contender, and it isn't this joker.

I made a petition thread once to have NLC's permaban lifted. It got nuked. I don't care what any of you say (or what I may say in the future), the troll as you call him might be one of the sharpest tools in this shed.

Edit: he's still kind of a tool, tho.

He's more like a pneumatic drill than a scythe, to be honest.

Jorge, I would suggest you read this:

Because he's never heard of that before...

Never mind the images I posted? There's a similar trend around this time each year that makes bubbles pop, this one is also popping sooner or later. Christmas holidays, new year's eve and Chinese new year are just more safety thresholds.

There is no content in your images for the mind. There is no similar trend this time each year.

Do I think we could have a pullback? Most certainly.
2408  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 11, 2015, 11:47:52 AM
if willy bot had never existed what would the 2 year price chart look like do you think? would this be the ATH now?

We probably would have been around 250/300$ which is not bad at all. Considering the amount of investments into the Bitcoin ecosystem and the protocol itself Willy just gave us a taste of what is going to be one day.  Wink

yeah, it's taken us a long time to get the taste of willy out of our mouths Sad

Don't underestimate greed. A bubble will happen again....

Yep, talk about fundamentals is a bit of a joke really when companies with no profits, no revenue and even no assets are valued more highly. About the only fundamental requirement is for the gateways to be wide enough to handle the cash<->btc exchange.

Historical data does in fact stand behind what I'm saying in the OP.

Apart from the fact that it doesn't.

At first I thought this was the usual nonsense, but those are some damn strange responses by his family, friends and associates.

edit: on looking over this more thoroughly, it appears to be the usual nonsense after all.
2412  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 08, 2015, 10:58:10 PM
Something has to happen for us to soar past previous ATH

What has to happen is disregard, then incredulity, anger, remorse and finally submission.

H&S right out the window.....

BTC ramped once again on Huobi...is their volume even real, or is it just a means of ramping BTC for dumps on USD exchanges and some rather lucrative capital flight gains?

Who knows how much further this will pop......but clearly...only a fucking idiot or Stop Hunter with access to exchange order books would be buying Bitcoin here........

....look for long setups now on correction which must surely be in the post.

I thought you said you wouldn't be buying in until later?

Going to 6 tps from 3, and 12 tps from there, until 2019 at the earliest, is nothing like trying to replicate a visa or swift. This all or nothing crap is tiresome, on both sides.

Essentially block size should be increased so long as the balance between security and performance is maintained. Striving for it to match Visa is a bad idea.
2417  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 03, 2015, 04:31:25 AM
Technically, *unlimited*.
You must also realize that I don't buy groceries with SWIFT. Few people do.
I use cash or CC, of which Visa is but one. Visa has a peak capacity of around 56,000tps.

That's roughly 19,000 times more than Bitcoin Smiley

Bitcoin wasn't meant for buying groceries. That it was based on Bit Gold gives a hint of its purpose. This mediocratization of the system to facilitate the transaction of individual corn nuts will end badly.
2418  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: November 30, 2015, 11:44:05 AM
With this change, a transaction that is still unconfirmed will be replaced in the queues by a later transaction that spends the same inputs (even to totally different outputs), if it pays a higher transaction fee.  Howeve the first transaction must have a tag saying that it can be replaced 9at least in this version of the patch).  

This feature is useful only when there is a backlog of unconfirmed transactions: it provides a way for the user to bump the fee on a stuck transaction, to increse its priority.  It also lets a user to cancel an incorrect trasnaction, if he notices the error and reacts before the bad transaction is confirmed.

I'm surprised it's taken this long to implement retroactive transaction fees. Not sure about spending to different outputs though.

@molecular

Ditto that. Maybe it was because I was a bubble virgin back then, but the $266 top was definitely the stressful one. There were situations where I really didn't know what to do, and was splashing about in the water aimlessly.

There was also an exchange that popped up after things looked awful for Gox where you could sell your right to Mt. Gox coins for real bitcoin, albeit at a significant discount.  Some smart / paranoid people were able to salvage some of their losses...

Let's not forget the swap thread we had here. Members were willing to trade up to .8 real BTC for every Gox IOU BTC: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=455243.0
