Holy shit, you guys are still here.
well yeah...duh you missed it dude, we had page count parity for a while Ha. Nice. I was listening to the Proudhon song, and at one point in the video there is an image of all the forum avatars of the old timers from this thread. I remember being pissed that mine didn't make the cut. Then I was like... are those guys still there? Is Proudhon still here? He/she was calling bubble before anyone even heard of bitcoin, haha. Then I saw the video uploader was TheKoziTwo, who I seem to recall poured a shit ton of cash into Gox before it collapsed.... ouch. Hope he/she is still around. Good luck with all the wall watching guys. I moved on to crypto twitter. Still HODLing. Chalkie ! That's been a while !

Lol, Central Bank dudes have been saying similar stuff since forever. This is just zerohedge playing their favourite game of backfitting (if that is even a word) the data.

This Peter Van Valckenburgh guy knows his shit. He has a bit of a tendency to overspeak the other guys, but then again, with Peter Schiff being there you kind of have to, and it must be frustrating to be the only guy in the room who really knows what is going on and having to bite your tongue all the time.

Jimbo on a rampage with forum bug. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Annoying as phuque. Kept going to cloudflare, kept retrying, kept getting that annoying "another reply has been posted you may wish to review" message, finally find out I'd posted the same message a half dozen times. I then wasted almost as much time deleting the extraneous messages. Perhaps Theymos should consider disabling that annoying message during DDoS attacks or other periods of stress on the servers.Agreed. Or if there is like >10 messages a minute being posted on a thread. We need cutting edge scaling technology for our Wall Observer thread ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) .

Meh. Not sure what the fuss is about these future markets. It only seems to be people gambling for or against the bitcoin price in the future with fiat and settling with fiat. No BTC is ever acquired or sold at all. Because the settlement price is based on the BTC prices on exchanges, this allows arbitrage, so they are somewhat communicating vessels. I really hate 10 min delayed data though. That's what I like about regular bitcoin trading, most of the data is open to everybody.

Not all of us are suffering from an embarrassment of riches. ![Kiss](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/kiss.gif) Just HODL. You will soon join the suffering. If and when that happens, the "cheap tx fee" will be the equivalent of $500. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) If I have a few millions I would be okay with that too. No matter how many millions I might have sometime in the future. $500 is still a lot of money. One thing is defending LN is the real scaling solution vs linear block size increase -although they are both compatible-, and another very different one using the argument that with current prices fees are reasonable. They are not. That's wrong. Fees are too expensive currently. Agreed, it ticks me off when people act like we shouldn't strive to do better (and the devs, they are striving as we speak).

(in before jbreher makes the bogus claim everyone will have their own foundry in their backyard within 2 years).
You know what? Fuck you and the pre-historic ancestor of the dromedary that you rode in on. WTF that I have stated have you misinterpreted as a claim that the average person will be able to own their own semiconductor foundry. Please. Oh - you can't? I return you to the opening. Fuck You. This guy is one of the few people I have on ignore here, I suggest you do the same. Apparently a mix of self-righteousness, stupidity, hatred and delusions of grandeur can indeed produce pure poison... I bet he gets off on it too...

I feel like the oxygen masks should drop from the ceiling.
Rosewater...breathe into the bag man
Funny, I felt quite high a while ago (when it spiked to 15-16k usd), but I am quite unphased now. Of course, I did sell a sizeable portion of my stash around 14k, which probably explains it. That ended up not being the best decision, but I am fine with it, as it means I can sleep better. On the other hand if this baby soars to $50k, I might be having trouble sleeping from that decision ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) .

one that can scale right now to peak-time VISA levels, by design.
Y'all realizer yer fabled LN can't scale to Visa levels without a huge block size increase, right? I can't prove to you that it can, but I believe that it is several orders of magnitude better than a mere block size increase. It can't, but it is still a huge advancement technology-wise. I am guessing there will be a range of options developed, going from more decentralized to less decentralized, with different trade-offs (different levels of transactional cost, convenience of use, privacy, security, level of control over funds...). Now that the userbase is larger and the fee situation is getting more precarious, we should definitely see businesses get on top of this. Most people today are fine with keeping their money in the bank, so while we definitely should strive to do better, just using bitcoin bank accounts would already be an improvement over the current situation.

Me too - but there are plenty of people here from 'murica that seem not to have noticed. Maybe they're all for freedom being sold off, I guess enough of 'em voted for....
Ok, never mind. I will keep quiet and just be (very quietly) flabbergasted.
You are not the only one. I was beginning to wonder.... Net neutrality is 'meh'?!!! Very sad development.

I have no f*cking clue what Cardano is or tries to archieve (nor am I very interested after a quick glance), but this https://iohk.io/ homepage effect is quite neat.

I learned long ago that posts on this thread have no influence on price since the big money moved in. We are all small fish, even though some are bigger small fish.
However this thread is great for helping keep my finger on the pulse, new news, and a few good lulz in between. Exactly

Note: The above is a very, very bad way to think. Are there meditation techniques to fix this?
Yes, travel into your cave and find your power animal. The first rule of Bitcoin Club is: you do not stop talking about Bitcoin Club. The second rule of Bitcoin Club is: you DO NOT stop talking about Bitcoin Club! Third rule of Bitcoin Club: Never stop hodling. Never yell “stop!”, go limp and tap out. Fourth rule of Bitcoin Club: Never tell how many coins you are hodling.

Wtf litecoin
Fuck retiring off BTC. At this rate, I'm going to be able to retire early just off LTC alone, and sit on my entire BTC stash until 2020 ! I LOVE THIS FUCKING CRYPTO SHIT !!!I had a big 10x leverage long ltc futures which I opened around $85 I think. I put in additional orders to capture a 10% dip as to avoid liquidation. Then I bought some more. I realized I needed to raise the price of my safety orders so I cancelled the previous one, then got distracted by sudden btc price action. Then my train arrived and I needed to head off to work and just plain forgot to put them back. Needless to say the dip occurred, I got liquidated, and if I had put in my safety orders I would not have been liquidated and would have been sitting extremely pretty.

Holy shit guys, massive volume on the futures, a full 70 BTC traded so far....
I am sure it will pick up though.

Most luxury items are stupid, from "limited edition sneakers" to diamonds to those "super" cars.
Basically a "stupid tax".
Well, I guess they serve a purpose in signalling wealth for people who want to use that to attract people of the opposite sex, but I mostly agree with you on the "stupid tax" thing.
