https://hitbtc.com/market-analytics"Talk is also starting to pick up in Bitcoin circles that big players might be considering taking some profits from their early entries and mining profitability is starting to get stressed at these prices.

Pretty much everyday you spend in the UK is like bending over to pick up the soap in the showers in a prison full of lifers... you get royal screwed in the ass over and over and over ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) in a financial sense I mean... in many ways this little island totally rocks.. the weather well.... this summer as been amazing... but we did not have one for the two previous years... just drizzle and rain.... it rains a lot... oh what is that ? you want to drive a car to stay dry ? well better pick up that soap. Yup. Something like 80% of the price of petrol in the UK is tax. Glad I got out. Though I mostly left because of the weather. Three years of overcast summers failed completely vs a warm sunny day in November in Florida. True that is.... and worse luck winter is coming ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) Hope sunny Florida is treating you well Tennessee actually ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Florida was just a vacation. Florida is a little too aggressively hot and sandy and full of old people for my taste.

Very creative, Notlambchop, but some of us do NOT give a flying fuck whether he is a professor or NOT.... I mean, unless he is putting it to good use and even really attempting to help with various bitcoin problems. Otherwise, why the fuck does he need to hang out here, and supposedly save us from ourselves and to save us from the various flaws of bitcoin (his latest hang-up seems to be coins getting stolen), but I am sure even if various resolutions are developing in the bitcoin space, some other major bitcoin issue will keep him focused in his attempts to "help" us out.
It's important what he is a professor *of*. Though to be fair, in economic matters, I don't think most professors of economics have much more of a clue than Jorge.

omfg we are so fucked.
No. We have Bitcoin. There will still be fluctuations of course and we'll probably all be driving flying electric cars but it probably means that a gallon of gas in 2020 will cost about the same mBTC as in 2070

whao pretty crap start to my day here.... anyway...
anyone notice the price of gas today? unbelievable, they have been running out of gas since 1970, and then they killed the electric car, only to bring the price of gass up Up UP, because they can. "they" are true asholes. I will buy all the bitcoins that will show them HA!
Have the prices been going up? Or... (OK, recently yes. But still) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Finflationdata.com%2Finflation%2Fimages%2Fcharts%2FOil%2FInflation%2520Adjusted%2520Gasoline2013.jpg&t=663&c=0BHKvBCcG8xqTQ)

these are the skills needed to be a successful professional poker player (in descending order of importance):
1. bankroll/money management (believe it or not, this one is the most important of all) 2. patience and discipline 3. emotional detachment from results - i.e. caring about whether you made a good play, not about what the particular result this time was 4. knowledge of probabilities (i.e. flopping a set, a flush draw arriving etc.) and hand ranges and how to exploit your opponents mistakes through this knowledge. 5. knowledge of human psychology and perception of so called "table dynamics" I maintain that most people have no problem with point 4 and 5, but what would prevent them from becoming a successful poker pro are points 1 - 3.
Probably the best way to make money at poker is to run a poker school or a poker website ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

guys, I am curious about something, I've noticed a huge amount of gambling games (dice games and wheel spining games) the huge amount of these sites suggest that Bitcoiners loves gambling !!?? any of you gamble here ?
I have three rules: Among friends (no house) Low stakes Reasonable odds. The first may be bent from time to time and the second two play off each other somewhat. I know some people apparently can make money from gambling (not dice and wheel games) but I have an idea of the kind of skill and dedication that would take and I'm not willing (or possibly even able) to do so.

![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) The hosting provider for Chartbuddy used to let me keep uploading images even when my account funding ran out and when I put some money in, bang, there they'd be. Not any more. I'll force the upload of the last one.

my theory is that ww3 is short-term bearish, long-term bullish
We're on ww4 now.

He and a lot of his supporters were murdered too, and that is the nature of the activities of revolutionaries attempting to affect change. I am just sticking to basic definitions, and NOT really getting into the substance regarding which ideology was right... but Che Guevarra is a symbol of the people b/c he was NOT funded by big money or status quo institutions and he was acting alike a modern day robin hood to attempt to rob from the rich and to give to the poor ... whether his ultimate ideologies were correct or not, his support was generally coming from broad masses of regular people rather than rich people or institutions.
Screw ideology (though we could go there), he was a murdering, scummy murderer and should be denounced as such. He was murdered/executed too? Well, no one is trying to link those people to Bitcoin, are they?

What a mess, Chartbuddy. A real mess. Chartbuddy glitch or bit stamp glitch? This is tame compared to what we have seen in the past. Nice to see a bit of choppiness though.

again I very likely don't know what I'm talking about..but until something pops like Ebay taking BTC or the facebook twins ETF or some other large movement towards 'adoption' by the masses...there will continue imho to be a slow bleed as the very large PH farms mine more coin and bleed it out to fiat as fast as possible.. it is like a slow leak to a faucet....
Another problem with the changes in mining is it has made adoption much harder. Even only as recently as about a year ago, if Bitcoin caught your attention, it was easy to grab a mid-range video card and accumulate some decent fractions of a bitcoin. Now it's significantly more effort (and risk). Add in that with the rise in price, the faucets have dried up. It would be nice if someone could step up to the plate with a good way to increase distribution but I'm not sure how. Unless somewhere like Newegg would use them as a points-type system or something.

One last design added to my store ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FIcaB1iL.jpg&t=663&c=KPRNLkLnp9hO2w) All sales commission (a lousy 10%) goes towards replacing the coins stolen by Brewster et al. Bitcoin not to be associated with a murdering c*nt pleasethankyou. a symbol of liberation.. depending on perspective. I'm considering the perspective of all the innocent people he murdered. Not a liberating experience, I'm lead to believe.

Adam, your best bet might to be to go here http://www.keepcalm-o-matic.co.uk/ to create a bitmap and go for one big enough to look good printed at t-shirt size. I could still do the SVG but this would let you get things exactly how you'd like them. (Though that wouldn't help you with the crown) but i need the BTC crown. You could cut it from the above bitmap, it just may not scale well. Though it is at least anti-aliased.
