Looks like the BTG community is learning a hard lesson about the consequences of abandoning a multibillion USD investment in system security.

All Bitcoin forks are scam (including bCASH) made to make some people rich

Of course, in the case of Bitcoin Cash, 'some people' is defined as 'everyone who held Bitcoin on the Satoshi chain at the moment of fork'.

So in this context, your use of the word 'scam' does not meet any recognized definition.

Nice try, though.

How much effect on the market will this Corda thing have, a distributed ledger database (sames as Ripple)
It is not invest able and want be found on Coinmarketcap. Made by the Banks for the Banks not public viewable, trade-able.

It is irrelevant.

Well, that kind of depends upon disambiguating Robin,Hood's use of 'the market'.

If we are talking about the cryptocurrency market, the effect is likely to be negligible. This would be just one more example of potential utility that won't get carried out on the Bitcoin blockchain. If it existed on the Bitcoin blockchain, it's effect would be accretive in proportion to the amount of activity.

However, if talking about the financial trade services market, and if -- and this is key -- if they can figure out how to properly maintain a permissioned blockchain, then its effect could be huge. Of course, the world has not yet seen a blockchain that has been battle-tested, that does not reward the maintainers in a native token. So there's that. What's the incentive?

Did satoshi and the core devs build bitcoin because the thought it was going to moon and be the new world reserve currency or just because it was a fun tech project?

Do you troll here just to talk your book, or because you have nothing better to do?

I dunno... seems like a reasonable point to ponder. Why does it appear to you as either book-talkin' or trolling?

Like I keep telling you, I sold at the top. Yes, while I was shilling bcash. What of it?

Wow, jbreher the troll finally comes clean.

1. He admits to shilling

2. He correctly calls the shitcoin 'bcash'

::le sigh:: This is what happens when obvious misquotes go without direct challenge. Damn you, Rosewater!

It's called moral outrage. You slime-licking toad. Smiley

I have heard of this 'toad licking' activity. Evidently, all the cool kids are doing it.

I personally would never retire early with just two million.

Neither would I.

Cheers!

Buying a house in cash is a waste of equity. Think bigger!

What about paying off an existing mortgage with free BCash, investing over $2M in a managed portfolio for the next 20 years, and retiring early ?  Kiss

Now see, that sounds like a solid plan, Bob.

Gotta congratulate you jbreher, if you were lucky enough to pull out a bit of excess dollar generation in price areas that were in the ballpark of 20x beyond the short term BTC price expectations that many of us were having in mid-2016.. 

Thanks, JJG. My lambo popped up on my radar screen just as Bitcoin was skying. I hadn't been actively looking. But the stars seemed to align. It seemed prudent to diversify a bit.
3091  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 17, 2018, 04:32:03 AM
Lambos are better associated with the BCash and ICO/shitcoin crowd. I mean, Roger and CSW drive them, so....?

My lambo is my brand new fully paid off house. Less flashy but also less childish.

Why would you pay for a home with cash when at least 80% of it could have been reinvested?

I closed in late January of this year. Figure it out.

I don't care if you cashed out at 20,000 per btc and made half a million dollars. That doesn't change what I said. Buying a house in cash is a waste of equity. Think bigger!

Think big? I'd rather live large. What the hell is the money for anyhow?

(It's not like I needed to liquidate, or anything even approaching that...)

Meanwhile, in BCash Land, many lulz are being had.

Quick - Someone send a shipment of bananas to the bcash development team so they can fix this shit!

Presumably, you realize that node operators running deprecated software is nothing for which the devs are responsible for, right?

It should be made clear that the protocol upgrade is implemented as a hard -fork so that people have to update .

Not quite.

Everyone has to either:
1) upgrade; or
2) cut out on a deprecated fork that they need to find a way to get miners to mine.

Choice 2) seems rather unlikely, but it is an option. For anyone misguided enough to try.

The addition of 3 new assets on Gemini and being licensed by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) shows Gemini is making a wider spectrum of crypto available to institutional investors

Why would they add beecash? wtf?

Maybe because they expect that Bitcoin Cash's greater utility -- as compared to Bitcoin Segwit -- will result in continued increase in market share for BCH.

Or maybe just because it is market cap #4. Or market cap #2 as defined by free of problematic Securities issues - which excludes Ethereum and Ripple due to their initial distributions.

Either way, they expect to make money by offering it.

Why is it that the best buying dips always seem to happen when I have no access to buying?

It's all right, we fixed it for you. In light of the fact that your travel coincides with a fall in price, we have revoked your passport. Effective upon your return home.

bitcoin cash can beat in the future bitcoin core?

If you are asking about market dominance, then yes it _can_. Whether or not it _will_ is an open question. I am betting that it will. Literally. Somewhat hedged, but betting so.

If you are talking about utility, it already does. Which is, of course, why I expect it will also eventually lead in market dominance.
3100  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can we remove @Bitcoin on twitter on: May 11, 2018, 10:35:31 PM
I think bitcoin cash will be real bitcoin in near future..I don't think BTC will hit $100000 but BCH will hit it definitely..what you think about that...just wait and watch the drama bitween BTC and BCH..... Grin Grin Grin

You should elaborate as to why you believe this!
It's a discussion forum!
I'd be very interested to hear why you believe Bitcoin Cash will overtake Bitcoin, and even reach $100,000 per coin.

Because Bitcoin Cash supports all the use cases that Blockstream/Core threw overboard in their insane Raspberry Pi fetish.

More utility leads to more use leads to more demand leads to greater price.
