I was not the dumper this time. I *was* tempted to script things to delete posts to keep us on page 10,000 for a while which would have been entertaining but decided to have a lazy Sunday instead.

Since someone mentioned the 2+2=5 quote from 1984, I'm gonna take the opportunity and go ahead and post the full movie on youtube of the cinematic rendition of Brave New World that I recently saw. Go watch it. It's old but it's very good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wlb1bdU-G7o...Feel free to keep going with whatever you were talking about tho ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) That was made for TV in a transatlantic collaboration. Sadly it never had a repeat showing. People have been trying to get hold of it for years until it finally surfaced on the internet.

... I truly hope you'll lose all your money. That would make my day.
It's the little things that bring us so much joy and make life worth living ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) True. For some it's the smile of a small child. For others, It's seeing a starving man eat for the first time in days and there's some where it's a soldier returning to his family after a long, arduous tour of duty. For shroomsy, it's seeing a man reduced to poverty.

Funny that J.P. Morgan stated that back then... ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) That wasn't a statement, that was a game plan.

I don't think it would be realistic to run the full blockchain on a phone so the kind of wallet he is thinking of would have to talk back to a version of the bitcoin client running on a computer you control. I suspect this one, like Mycelium, talks to a server hosting the blockchain. (Though with Mycelium, at least, the transaction signing does occur on the phone so it should be safe for certain values of safe) Yes, I checked the linked software. It seems to be a web wallet with an offline GUI. Does the Android version of Mycelium work the same way as the PC version? @mymenace - This is not even in the ballpark. I was not aware of a PC version. On the Android version, it relies on a server to process the blockchain but the keys are kept entirely on the local phone.

The best you can do is invest in things that actually produce valuable goods or services, such as stocks of solid companies, or real estate that you can rent. Not even that. The presses have been running and these things are in a bubble (in the case of real estate, still in a bubble since the last one was not allowed to deflate as was needed). There is really no great place to put money right now. Possibly food & ammunition.

Why do you people keep quoting that idiot Stolfi Shromskit ? Why? Don't you still not get it. If you say white pump he says black dump, when you say right he says left. He only does this because of his sick need for attention. The subject is irrelevant. He will always say the opposite just so you reply to him to be overdramatic and catch attention. Stop doing it. Don't give that retard what he wants.
Oops I did it again ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) And now Brittney Spears. It's like some weird version of Bonaroo in here.

Jaws was never his scene and he don't like Star Wars. I think Shroomsy wants to ride his bicycle.

Thank you! I have saved a few of them myself too, though my preservation of history has mainly been screencapping ATHs on bitcoinity. If only there was some way to permanently store information in a collectively agreed account of history. A public ledger if you will. None that I know of:( Could maybe torrent the data.

I hate that the old chart buddies don't work. They are ideal when you go back over old posts. There are a part of history man!
The images linked to on those posts are long gone. Cost too much to keep them around (though I do have all the data archived). Well, I am glad you found a way to automate the process - it was a bugger doing it all by hand with 7777. Good job!! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I figured 100 pages was plenty. Though I do still have more than 1600 posts in reserve ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

or small chance some people aka "post dumpers" found a way of automatization the deleting of own posts via an bot/script/macro ...
Now who could do something like that? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

10000? never gonna happen.
It is inevitable to happen. May take a week, but it is inevitable, inspite of the many childish post dumpers. Many? To get 100 pages of dumps, that is 2,000 posts, no? Well, o.k. I agree, maybe "many" was a bad word choice? Many posts but not many dumpers ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Oh my dog, hundreds of very meaningful posts here have suddenly disappeared.
I assure you, that is not the case. They were all "The Bitcointalk Image Proxy Cannot Display This Image" or whatever guff it says.

What I'm saying is there's a link between Bitcoin market cap and market cap of companies that deal exclusively or mainly in Bitcoin. So that if there were twenty (hell, ten or five would be sufficient as well due to synergy and other factors besides companies) Coinbases and they were valued the same, then one can definitely argue that Bitcoin is undervalued.
In this age of rampant "quantitative easing", I would rather argue that Coinbase is over-valued (note that this is not a slight against Coinbase).

Note that the timestamp suddenly jumps backwards to that 1416032002 value. I'll add in a bit of code to exclude old data.
