Enough to break the trendline?  Grin

That's the wrong one. The one matters goes from 50 through 79 which should still be intact. (I haven't checked though)

This one?



Well yes and no, if you draw it on a linear scale anyhow. (disclaimer! I don't use trendlines)

5k sellwall just popped up @132

I see a lot less wall manipulation these days. we haven't seen a huge bid or ask wall pop up purely to cause panic. good sign IMO
lol adam was faster Grin


lol i say that, and now their is a 5K ask wall


panic time?

I guess so.

you first

Actually I kind of anticipated this, the only surprise is that it might be steeper than expected, which kind of sucks.

Starting to look bad from here...  Lips sealed

Since when cheap coins look bad?

Wink

Always. It hurts the coin.

No only when you are "all in" (which means you are broke and invested more than you can afford to lose)

There's no way ASICS can attack scrypt and I doubt there are FPGA's there yet though there were some huge hashes hitting Goldcoin out of nowhere in last day or two that looked bit suspicious.

Anyway, this fearing stuff it's bit pathetic. If they are attacking it, they have some reason to do it but fear is not the one  Wink

I think that meant spare gpu rigs are used, but who knows could be B.S.

bears taking advantage  of the usa memorial day arent they ? Smiley no worries we can buy coins back at higher prices soon lol

well, 1% daily trading profit is 3678% annual trading profit if you manage that consistently... Smiley
(But almost nobody does, that doesn't stop one from trying though...)

lol if this is true I should probably buy some nibbles.  Cheesy

Paranoid Bitcoin zealots are the best anti-indicator I know of.

My top bearish contender is still BFL, they are the largest concentrated pile of incompetence and still kickin. People (and neither myself) don't pay any attention to them any more but they are continuing to piss people off.
3132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ripple or Bitcoin on: May 27, 2013, 02:07:20 PM
It's interesting that the people arguing against ripple are the ones who stand most to lose, their main fear is that other people would choose XRP as speculative investment over Bitcoin.
3133  Economy / Speculation / Re: This is the Bitcoin Marathon, not the Bitcoin Sprint on: May 27, 2013, 01:20:19 PM
Maybe one day saying you bought a bitcoin in 2011/2012 and held will be like saying you bought a Berkshire Class-A share in 1970 and held.

Still thinking too small. Smiley

No that's exactly fitting.
It will end, just like semiconductor manufacturing will have to be done in space bitcoin will have to be replaced. Technology is improving and in order for it to do that it has to be changing.
3134  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Theymos: What the fuck is up with BFL and TradeFortress? on: May 27, 2013, 11:56:53 AM
Because they don't read Trilema. More importantly, because they can't afford actual consultants and don't have who to give them the quarter to buy a clue with.

So you are parroting everything MP tells you? Or did you look into ripple yourself and have a reason for you opinion?

3136  Local / Trading und Spekulation / Re: Der Aktuelle Kursverlauf on: May 27, 2013, 10:51:12 AM
Ja, dann geht's wirklich ab... Die zwei wichtigsten Fragen m.E.:
Wieviele Bubbles werden wir bis zum "echten" Peak durchlaufen?
und: Wird sich der BTC-Kurs auf einem hohen Plateau stabilisieren oder langfristig abrutschen?


Das hängt davon ab ob BTC aus seiner Rolle verdrängt wird oder nicht. In ein paar Jahrzehnten durchaus wahrscheinlich imo.
3137  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Hardcore on: May 27, 2013, 10:26:58 AM
Just saw this in other forum... any good??

http://research.microsoft.com/apps/video/dl.aspx?id=192058

yes, although patching it into Bitcoin would require a hard-fork.
3138  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is a better store of value than Gold on the long term on: May 27, 2013, 10:02:45 AM
Gold has been mined out steadily year over year. We know gold is scarce and we also know there is more in the ground.
No one is sure about the gold supply. But every bitcoiners know the supply of BTC.

Yes and no but it is the reason for the gold crunch this month.
You see gold, like every resource follows the Hubbert Curve. Peak gold was projected to be some time around 2020. Now what happened was that gold futures piled up to such an extent that it became questionable if it really is this early, not later. So speculative interest coming form the assumption of declining supply rates after that date went away and the price plummeted. Of course gold-bugs will tell you that was because market manipulation or "fake" gold futures for gold which isn't really there, but we should know better Wink

But this does not mean that peak gold won't happen within the next decades so the gold price will not deteriorate completely.

"Fairness" is about you do as much as you can, with your current resource, to get the access to your currency out to as many people as possible, Opencoin can at the blink of an eye start giving away all of their XRPs(or even better, sell them!), yet they refuse to do that.

Well If opencoin gives away this many XRP not only they gonna run out sooner than it would take for ripple to become popular, but also the wealth would be concentrated within this community which I don't think they want.
3140  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Ripple is excellent, but short-sighted. on: May 27, 2013, 09:29:44 AM
Just sain' Satoshi also generated a bunch of Bitcoins for himself.


Keyword ^


Ripple = type 1 and 0's into variable.

Big difference.

Technically yes, but for practical purposes the cost of generating them stands in no relation to the effort it took to come up with Bitcoin and write the software.
The general consensus is that Satoshi has "earned" to have them not because his mining but because his work.

All you can say that you think opencoin is too greedy for your taste. In that case you are free to fork ripple once it is released.
As for myself I consider the valuation of XRP to work like a stock which pay "dividends" by deflation. Added to this I didn't give anybody any money nor did I pay for my XRP, which I gonna keep till ripple comes out of beta.
Haters gonna hate,

You know what, you could have mined all those 1 million bitcoins, and leave not even bread crumbs to Satoshi, this is called "fairness".

And I don't hate XRPs, I just think it's a suckers' investment, you can ask any investor out of this community if they are going to invest in something which a single entity controls 10 times more than everyone else combined, they will call you crazy.

If I did know about and were subscribed to the cypherpunks mailing list, had the knowledge to implement a miner and the necessary computing resources.

I agree that XRP are risky, it's the same kind of risk as with BTC just amplified, but I think the potential gain is there to compensate. If I am wrong, well it's like missing on somebody giving me 1000 bucks, which is unfortunate but not really dramatic.
