Anyone bullish because of halving? According to halvings in 2016 and 2012 we had one last correction 93 days before halving in 2012 (-57%) and 95 days before halving in 2016 (-40%). We are now in 2020. So this year 95 days before halving puts btc exactly on the start of this correction on the 13 february when bitcoin reached 10.497. We are now almost -8% from the top.

 What's the purpose of this self-deprivation?
Also, why so many size tags?  Maybe you weren't meant to use the internet at all and this is a good thing for the rest of us.  I challenge you to deprive yourself of internet for 1 year.


You don't get the gist of 30th and 31st of February. They don't exist!  Grin

The real bitch of a problem in all this is to find a place where people speak proper english.

that rules out the USA for you then (not that i think thats on your list btw).
Honestly Romania is looking better and better. Communism is illegal, you can live in a castle cheaper than a danish apartment, beautiful girls and everything is cheap, and their language appears to be reasonable to learn, and they speak decent to good english anyway. Couple months till my eastern europe tour, just hope corona-chan doesn't get all the borders closed before then.

 All true ...but the bureaucracy is killer; a holdover from the communist era.  You need papers and papers need translations, legalization, (sometimes) superlegalization, notorization and stamps but you cant pay for the stamps at the place you get the stamp, you have to pay somewhere else where you are issued a receipt... you ask a question and they are happy to oblige but when you get to the office you were told had what you need, you find out that the helpful person didnt know what they were talking about OR maybe they did and the person at the office you've arrived at just sucks at their job... and everything happens a little slower than you'd expect and then some.

HOW MUCH BITCOIN YOU NEED TO BE IN THE RICHEST 1% OF BTC HOLDERS

Quote
According to the BlockWorks Group analyst, you only need 0.28 BTC to be in the top 1% richest of the world (in BTC terms).

No more than 5-10 million people will ever own a full Bitcoin

This naturally implies an unfair distribution of the wealth as “whales, hodlers, nations and institutions” hold the lion’s share.


  Bitcoin is distributed perfectly fairly based on the time, effort and passion each person put into acquiring and holding their share.  The only natural implication here is that most people ignored Bitcoin until it was too late for them to afford their "fair" share.  Do people get paid to write this tripe?

3007  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Request - Project for clean drinking water for everyone. on: February 19, 2020, 07:24:17 PM
I was watching a video last night on this powder that can be placed in filthy water and it binds all the solids and also disinfect the water within 30 minutes. This got me thinking, if someone could get some Blockchain project running to help with the funding for a bunch of these packets, then we can make a real difference in people's lives. Demo : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yG90QjiAWTg

It should be something similar to this : https://www.gcfdn.org/Giving/Funds-of-the-Foundation/Procter-Gamble-Charitable-Giving/Childrens-Safe-Drinking-Water-Fund

A human can go for more than three weeks without food, but the maximum time a person can go without water seems to be a week.

We saw what massive difference the Pineapple fund made to charities, but I think a project like this will make an even bigger impact, because the water sources for many people are filthy around the world and a few packets like this will provide clean drinking water for 1000's of people for a whole year.

Do you have any interesting projects that can be linked to donations for charity projects like this? Please find a way to include this in your projects or to start something new.  Huh

We can also crowd ask that P&G fund to accept donations in Bitcoin to also boost that project, if we cannot start something on our own.  Wink They currently only accept Credit card payments.  Sad - $7.50 - give a child clean water for a year...



  If there is already a charity for safe drinking water and you feel you would like to help, why not donate your fiat currency?  It's not necessary to recreate the wheel.  Also, existing charities can't use Bitcoin in it's digital form; they must convert it to fiat first at further expense which is a waste of your donation.  Accepting Bitcoin will not boost any charity - especially Proctor & Gamble's - with Bitcoin's total value at less than 0.2% of the world's money,  it's not logical to think it would.  Seriously, use your gov't controlled cash for charities.  Keep your Bitcoins for yourself.

Often they use vitamin B12 to treat dyspnea - altitude sickness. For some people methyl B12 is way better than simple vitamin B12. Maybe the cure is methyl B12 plus lots of vitamin C, and added iron.

Cool

 Taken with a nice hot cup of Kenya AA coffee for the synergistic effect Smiley


But drink Ganoderma coffee instead. Ganoderma is the Malaysian word for the Japanese Rieshi mushroom. So, it's mushroom coffee, with a mushroom that uses fungal effect to kill off all kinds of diseases.

Cool

There is often very little data when it comes to alternative medicines and herbal supplements. Especially when it comes to treating viruses.  

Elderberry extract is an exception. It has been shown in randomized trials to be useful against the influenza virus. No one knows for sure how or if it would help against this new coronavirus.

I was thinking Peter Schiff fired r0achie, and put an end to the meaningless copy-paste propaganda on WO, and took it on twitter.

Now how bullish is that?

Bitcoin price hits $9678: What to expect? ris eor fall ??

MARK MY WORDS:


11111 by March 3rd

 Marked.

Is March 3rd significant?


Yes  but just to me.  It crossed 10k on Jan 27 this year my birthday.

March 3rd is my wife birthday  so why not cross 11111? Grin

 LOL Why not?  It's near as good as any TA I've seen regarding Bitcoin. 
 Happy birthday to both of you!

I can remember when it was called a cold.  If it was intended as a bio-weapon, it's a total failure - absolutely useless as one.  Given its ability to paralyze the entire population of China, the Chinese government is a much more effective bio-weapon than the so-called Covid-19.


Of the first 99 confirmed cases of this at the epicenter Wuhan General Hospital overall mortality rate was 11%. This was with extraordinary interventions including ventilation and ECMO

https://marlin-prod.literatumonline.com/pb-assets/Lancet/pdfs/S0140673620302117.pdf

The disease is also extremely contagious. We don’t know for sure how long this can survive on surfaces but members of the Coronavirus family have been shown to survive anywhere from a week in the case of SARS to a month in the case of some known animal Coronaviruses.

https://www.sciencealert.com/study-shows-just-how-long-coronaviruses-can-stick-around-on-a-surface/amp

High infectivity asymptotic spread and survival from days to weeks on surfaces likely mean this disease is utterly uncontainable and will become established in the human population like the influenza virus.

Hopefully one of the following is true.

A) The disease is not as severe globally as initial reports out of China indicate. This might be possible if that small study on ACE2 receptors is accurate or if there are massive numbers of asymptotic infections where people don’t get sick.

Or

B) The initial quarantine measures slow this down enough to develop some effective treatments for it before it gets everywhere.



  Most people with cold or flu-like sypmtoms don't even go to the hospital let alone get admitted to a hospital specializing in infectious disease at the onset of their illness.  The first people to be involved in the study were already very ill - in fact, the first fatality in this study had already had fever and dyspnoea for 7 days prior to going to the hospital.  While the study is useful, we can't draw conclusions about the mortality rate of this disease based on this study alone.

 The reason I replied to this thread was to answer the question  "Is the Corona Virus A Bioweapon?" and I still maintain that it is utterly useless as a bio-weapon.

 It's just a cold.

I'm also a bit oldfashioned but you might have missed that metrosexual is not a thing anymore, in fact since about ten years or so.  Tongue

Jesus, you're right, it was ten years ago! Time fucking flies.

I remember in 2010 being disappointed that we hadn't found any monoliths yet, and we still haven't found a single one.
