I've got some Dr Who comics from the 80s. Marvel Premiere #57 (first US appearance) US series # 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,13,14,15,17,20,21,22, and 23 (last issue). About half are in NM (great) condition, the rest are FN (good) condition.  |

Shorts are out in force today. They're borrowing about 3,000 XMR from me. Probably the ones at 0.00144. I'd guess a total of 12k are being lent ATM. If anybody wants to squeeze them, LMK and I'll pull my the rest of my coins off the lending and Sell markets.  |

It appears the entire black market / shady soviets are moving to altcoins till post-bitcoin classic armageddon is resolved with a single chain.
Moving to altcoins...that aren't named Monero! Why XMR and ETH only alts in deep red today? So crazy. Is it International Pump A Shitcoin Day?  yup, dow is bouncing. ps: thx for the inputs above, red the segwit faq since it came out, yet still not convinced, i'd rather have my money secured by lean code. There are known problems with Bitcoin's existing code we need SW to fix. IE, your money isn't currently secured as well as it could be given segwit. SW doesn't add as much code as the Tooministas and their Buttcoin allies FUD on about. It's an elegant solution to about 10 problems - not a gimmick or a Trojan horse or a kludge. That's why wallet devs are eager to make their products compatible with the planned upgrade (presently undergoing testing). |

Classic is coming, like it or not.
OK sure, just like 3 months ago 64MB Unlimited blocks were coming, like it or not. OK sure, just like 6 months ago 8MB XTblocks were coming, like it or not. OK sure, just like 9 months ago 20MB Gavinblocks were coming, like it or not. Wake me up when somebody actually wastes the opportunity to mine a real block by solving a ToominBlock. The life of that orphan chain will be nasty, brutish, and short. I'll need to make some new #rekt memes for the occasion.  |

Sometimes the manual process of preparing Dashcoins to be Instant-X Dark-sendable takes a couple of days. That's especially true for large amounts, such as the hoard stolen from Cryptsy. If BigVern is trying to pre-mix 14,000+ stolen Dash, it's going to take years, depending on the number of other people willing to mix their coins with stolen/tracked/monitored/dirty dash. |

Donald Trump will boycott next Republican debate
Good choice. Megyn was going to tear Donald's throat out on live TV. While smiling and retaining her customary charm, composure, and mastery of the facts of the matter. Please don't hurt'em Miss Megyn!   |

I'll leave you with how I would invision this working for simpletons like me....with the following story in the near future.
Lets say I have a couple of kids, John & Suzy. I believe the future is digital currencies and I want to make a wallet for each of my children. In each of their wallets they could have an address for College Fund, Candy money, Favorite Charity...etc etc. in each of their wallets. I also want a wallet for my own personal things and shopping and maybe a wallet for my home business(in the future everyone is using DASH).
I'd want to install all these on my home pc server....someday I'll give lil Johny and Suzy their digital wallets...but for now I manage them all and sock money away for them. Dad(me) knows nothing about computers...and i want to simply create these 3 or 4 wallets with a click of a mouse and just simply label each wallet as DASH Johnny, DASH Suzy and DASH Daddy and DASH ABC Repair...and thats it. I now have 3 or 4 simple digital wallets all self contained and ready for non techie dad to use everyday.
That should be how simple this should be. no config line programing, no moving and copying things around. Until crypto can be that simple to use...no main stream will EVER happen. Thats my thoughts....
 Family MerkleTree MakerThe capability you want already exists in Bitcoin. Your problem is you expect such bespoke software to be duplicated in Dash, when a) Masternode blinding is still "pending" and b) the new Evolution roadmap leaves no resources for polishing the existing product (EG, see point a.). |

Sigs aren't being excised from the Holy Ledger, merely segregated from tx. That makes the Holy Leger more secure by patching up some outstanding maintenance issues. The tps bump is just a nice side effect. I trust the BIP process will work out any bugs with segwit and sidechains. So far, so good. Eh, to me they are introducing further points of failure and security breach (centralization, 3rd parties, etc...) whilst over-complexifying Bitcoin's code. I'd rather have efficient (transparent?) off chain solutions to scaling as it will necessarily lead to centralization. I just don't like my money being forked to please the social media and their mass adoption coffee cups urges. "Wouldn't it be extremely inefficient to copy every single coffee purchase on everyone's computer?" https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/42tcqm/eli5_wouldnt_it_be_extremely_inefficient_to_copy/ is a long read, but well worth the time*effort. There's no centralization or TPPs involved in segwit. For one thing, Bitcoin CEO Adam Back (Ph.D. in distributed systems) wouldn't stand for it. Segwit isn't being done for coffees-on-the-blockchain. The tps bump is merely a serendipitous bonus, and just the thing for shutting up the 2MB ClassicCoin troll-forkers. Segwit is being done to make our potentially disruptive experiment an eventually viable candidate for the job of high-powered digital cash, capable of being the provably honest mother of all settlement networks. Segwit fixes several points of potential failure and security breach. It also enables some amazing features, IE linear sighash scaling. What can we do with tx signed by groups of 100 or 100k users? I have no idea but am in favor of finding out, because I like Nice Things. Details aside, look at the big picture here. SW is being done as a soft fork, so there is nothing anyone can do to prevent its deployment (besides finding a deal-breaker bug or other flaw). We can't force people to desegregate their tx and sig data. Node operators are free to construct their blocks however they like. Almost all of them will choose to use the new option of segregated witness, because of the apparently overwhelming advantages and acceptably negligible trade-offs. We can run the old version and refuse to look in the newly provided companion blocks for sig data, but that doesn't change anything but our own opsec. We are obligated to fight features, but at some point some of them begin to smell like a done deal. Remember when everyone was upset ("rabble rabble Peter Todd rabble") about CLTV, but then some wag called it OP_HODL and suddenly all was well?  The BIP process has worked like a charm so far. I don't see any reason to stop trusting it for fear of segwit, sidechains, and RBF (oh my!). The white smoke for segwit, sidechains, Lightning, and RBF went up at the HK #ScalingBitcoin. They're coming, and the world is preparing for a Bitcoin that is ready to scale, eventually. |

I love the show! It's been corupting me since I was 8! I'm surprized my parents actually let me watch it! I've seen ever episode up to date at least twice
They tricked you into watching something educational.  |

every day without an inch of movement from Blockstream, increases the possibility. The fact that they start bringing up PoW changes when backed into a corner gives even more weight to the idea that they would rather go to war than compromise to 2MB.
Blockstream is moving rapidly on segwit, sidechains, and Lightning. They are meticulously preparing Bitcoin to be carefully scaled ASAP. Classic, OTOH, is spreading '2MB? Not much testing needed' nonsense. And yes, we will "go to war" to defend Bitcoin's diverse/diffuse/defensible/resilient characteristics, from which its key interesting property of antifragility emerges. Whine about it all you want. Nothing you do can move our Honey Badger's needle one iota. You have no power here. I still have doubts regarding sidechains security: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3vg06a/official_release_rootstock_white_paper/cxnfe6nAs for the segwit thing, I am still quite opposed to the excision of cryptographic signatures from the holy ledger (also implying the introduction of 3rd trusted parties).. WHat you think? Sigs aren't being excised from the Holy Ledger, merely segregated from tx. That makes the Holy Leger more secure by patching up some outstanding maintenance issues. The tps bump is just a nice side effect. I trust the BIP process will work out any bugs with segwit and sidechains. So far, so good. |

The 20-30 years is hyperbole.
No it is opinion, though a bit on the conservative end of the spectrum compared with some others. Your opinion that it ought to be used right now (or soon) is at the opposite end. The other thing that very well may happen is the methods continue to evolve and be replaced with clearly superior methods, but that implies continual immaturity. It may take a long time to reach the point of maturity where you both stability and confidence in those methods. This already happened with Zerocoin where the developers of it pushed hard to have it integrated with Bitcoin only to be laughed at. They then went and developed Zerocash in a year or two and now no one talks about Zerocoin much any more. Zerocash as it is now constructed will very likely be superseded within a few years with some superior method. Of course we can't consider the advantages and disadvantages of that method until it is published. TPTB, often ill and generally in appalling health, lives hand-to-mouth with no hope of children or other form of legacy. Thus his time preference is very high, and we get to hear his endless Veruca Salt impersonation. I'm very happy with the low time preferences of the Monero crowd. Our wise crypto-elephant may take much longer to gestate and deliver than a vapid altcoin chipmunk, but we will enjoy a lower rate of infant mortality as a result. |

Maybe bitcoiners just aren't as excited about bitcoin as human nature turns it a bit sour. That's my sentiment atm.
Nonsense. Every day Bitcoin survives is another day I get more excited about it. Your sour "sentiment" is irrelevant to Honey Badger, thank God. We don't need endless copypasta from Zerohedge duplicated here. Just open a new tab, because it's not the same without Boris Alotovcrap (I love that guy). |

Oh so this is basically a copy of agar.io is this even legal? I mean the game is really good, it's not yours but it's good, the idea is also very good but in the end it can be boring, I played too much agar and after a while it gets boring.
I never played agar.io, but I think that in one of the first pages the devs say chopcoin is based on agar, but with their own modifications... Legal or not? I have no idea, but I am guessing it is. There are other "clones" too, but chopcoin is definitely more fun. Being able to win BTC from playing a great game is why I like it so much, it's a great combo. If lots of more players joined in the lowroller or the higher playgrounds, we could earn even more BTC. I only hope that the devs manage to work things out so that the business model is sustainable. Again, more communication with the community is key here. Great job you guys!!! I see chopcoin.io as an ideal 'proof of human' model for BTC and other crypto fountains. Is it open source? Can I buy modified versions to use for Monero and Decred fountains? |

Actually I expect that in such a scenario most exchanges will not have dual trading but will rather use an event like that as an opportunity to confiscate BTCs as their own and replace them with BTCCs. Especially if they have political reasons of siding with BTCC. So you either find a reliable dual exchange that has both BTC and BTCC (which may be hard to find or even DDOSed), or you move with alts as a vehicle of +1 step.
Let's hope we never find out.
I hope we do find out. More adversity benefits Bitcoin's antifragility. Or Bitcoin dies and we relaunch the experiment starting at square one. I can't wait to hear the howls of protest as Coinbase, Circle, and the other Toominista exchanges confiscate everyone's Bitcoins, then replace them with ToominCoins. The price of BTC will skyrocket, as anyone idiotic and unprepared enough to lose and/or ruin their genuine coins with Toomin-taint will have to replace them. Such a 'teachable moment' will have a salubrious clarifying effect on the Bitcoin ecosystem, and we won't have to hear whining about Sensor Ships for at least another 6 months. |

Who is the initiator behind Silver Law group law suit against Cryptsy?
How many people have signed the lawsuit till date?
If it was Cryptsy behind this law suit (inside job), then people get scammed again
Any individual law suit?
Thank you!
Silver Law group has no incentive to act, now that they know all the money is either long gone, or about to be long gone in a divorce. |
