You can get a free upgrade to Win10 until 12/31 www.microsoft.com/accessibility/windows10upgrade

I had the impression that Jimbo actually wants his new laptop to have Windows 7! And so right he is...

I'm on Windows 7 and extremely satisfied. I'm going nowhere near a version number > 7 unless I absolutely have to.

Because of that little conversation I sold my 15125 buy at 14800 or so... 3 bucks lost. Here's hoping I catch the bigger dip... But seeing as we're back at 15100... Getting nervous.

Pretty much what the other posters have said. Just HoDL! If you make a move, just stick to it and don't panic. Statistically you will end up losing if you try to outrun the market by acting spasmodically. If it dips more, just buy more (if you have more fiat to spend).

I've also sent some fiat to Kraken for some BTC shopping, and was thinking to buy as soon as the funds become available to spend. But I've been reading about expected dips to $10k or even $8k and lower... What to do? Will wait for a while and then make my move.

From the site's FAQ:

Quote
What cryptocurrencies are supported?

We only accept Bitcoin and Ethereum at this time. ELTCOIN will be supported in our ILO (Initial Lambo Offering).

LOL!

Yes, those are 14 great tweets that can provide some grounding, and assistance to folks who have already accumulated a decent stash of bitcoin, and also to consider that cashing out a decent amount of profits can be decent for protecting from the possible downside and even diversification of some profits can also be provide additional grounding.

JJG, just out of pure curiosity, can you quantify the highlighted phrase?
2685  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 27, 2017, 02:02:57 PM
this bounce can be driven by the B2X fork, you know hold btc to get your forked coins.

We'll see after the 28ish what's what.
Someone posted pages back that we will only get those forked coins if btc is held on certain approved exchanges..
can anyone comment on this?

As Andreas Antonopoulos would say, "this statement makes me want to vomit..."

After colour coins and country coins, the new trend in 2018 will be bitcoin fork coins

B2X is a well balanced fork, 2.5 min block, segwit and 4 mb blocks....not sure about the change of algo tho.

Yeah, with 2.5-minute 4 MB blocks, its blockchain is going to grow at 8-16 times the growth rate of Bitcoin's (assuming full blocks)... It's going to be fun to watch those hard drives getting full with all those coffee TXs...
2688  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: December 25, 2017, 11:47:14 PM
I'm going to take a stab at explaining why bigger blocks are a bad solution to the vending machine problem.

Eventually ( and SOON(tm)) the demands on the worlds premier blockchain will cause it to be impossible to run fully L1 transactions on pedestrian hardware.  And the more demands we make on the hardware that run full nodes (users and miners), the more we shift that job to the hands of the powerful and rich (mostly the miners).  They will be incentivized to build cartels as the validation of transactions on the network become more and more centralized.  



This recent twitter conversation should give a big blocker pause.  Let's just say Microsoft decides to use the BITCOIN blockchain to handle decentralized identity validation.  If this were to happen we would see possibly tens of MILLIONS of transactions a second.  And this kind of stuff WILL happen.  If the blockchain is to remain uncensored it HAS to.

Anyone care to do the math to see how big the BCH block size would have to be to handle this increase?  Suffice it to say nothing close to 8MB will cut it.  And this smashes Moore's law.  Instantly we need drive space, network bandwidth, and computational power to handle MUCH bigger block sizes.  And the time constant stays the same.  We have to be able to do this in 10 minutes for each block.

Instantly we have a small number of people controlling the Bitcoin network.  Will make a 51% attack a piece of cake among other things.

Making Bitcoin blocks 8MB so you can buy a bag of weed with it (why the HELL are you buying weed using a transparent blockchain by the way?  Use Monero for this?) is like putting a bandaid on a bullet wound.

Sidechains are needed, powerful, and INEVITABLE.  The use of sidechains will not preclude transaction made directly on the base chain.  The real Bitcoin will have all this power soon.  Soon enough, believe it or not...  This is why people are saying to use Litecoin, or Monero until the mempool cools down.

BCASH is part of an planned and orchestrated power grabbing attack on Bitcoin.

There is only one Bitcoin.

Well said.

@Neo_Coin: Good work, keep the images and memes coming.

We need more positive attitude here guys! A few minutes ago I had to check to verify that I'm still in the WO thread... Too much Bcash shilling... We had a dip and all the cockroaches and other bugs and rodents came out from under the rocks they've been crawling all their lives...

Why use a shitcoin with a totally different blockchain when you can use Bitcoin Cash that has the same historical blockchain as what Satoshi and Ross used?

Ask it to TPB:



Wow, thanks for this, wasn't aware of it!

Funny thing is, Bcash "CEO" Rick Falkvinge was a supporter of The Pirate Bay! That's a double LOL there!

Pineapple fund is now dropping BCore Coin as well... they make million dollar donations to charity and they can't even use BCore Coin due to fees.

https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/7lnu9w/pineapple_fund_update_homes_in_haiti_education/?st=jbmj0xiz&sh=1a425cb9

This is the second charity in two days that I've seen drop Bitcoin Core in the past few days.

Pale Moon also stopped accepting donations as well. https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?t=17826

I read the reddit article.

So, why are they not using Litecoin, which is a well-established coin, and instead they suggest using Bcash, which is a fork in its infancy and governed by lunatics (read their "Letter from the CEO" as proof of lunacy)? I sense something fishy going on there...

Cause Litecoin fucking sucks.

No one wants to use Litecoin... sorry I know that is heartbreaking for all of y'all shitcoiners.

People want to use Bitcoin because of the historical value behind it and the number of real transactions on it.

But... Bcash is not Bitcoin!

It absolutely is Bitcoin.

Litecoin is not Bitcoin.

I'm not sure why this is so hard for people to grasp.

Aye aye, captain! Now, read this:

"Letter from the CEO"

...to see what Bcash really is, written by the "CEO" himself.

Well   A. Thats not a date and
           B. When is it determined you win?

I win after each incorrect date passes. If the price passes $24777 I lose.

It's not complicated, really.

Then your bet would have to be "None of the dates in the list". In this case, when all dates in the list fail, you win. Otherwise, you lose. No ambiguity.

"Never" is ambiguous, as has already been noted, and micgoossens was right in ignoring your post.

Pale Moon no longer accepts Cryptocurrency donations due to the outrageous fees.

https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?t=17826

I expect we see a flood of services dropping Bitcoin in the coming weeks.

It's a REALLY bad sign when you can't even give away something that is supposed to be money.

Why dropping all cryptocurrencies? It's only Bitcoin that's currently relatively expensive to transfer. They could accept Litecoin instead...

Top-right corner of main area --> Second icon (one that looks like an 'x') --> "Snow" option --> Untick.

Peter - answer the question:  who does Jihan Wu report to?

Putin!

No, wait,  that's Vitalik...


Jihan Wu controls Bcash.  There is a Chinese Communist Party member on Bitmain’s board of supervisors.  Why don’t you Bcash shills do a little research into who really controls your coin.

I suspect there may be legislation in China that requires every China-based company to have a Chinese Communist Party member on their board. This is true in Malaysia, where every company owner is required to have a Malay member in their company, even though the owner may be Chinese Malaysian. Unfair, but that's the law there.
