Bitcoin ... mining costs over 1000$ per user a year. How the heck is more people having it going to fix this?!

Amortizing the unit system price across more users does exactly this, silly.

At the end even he confesses that there are newer and better cryptos then bitcoin,

If so, he is wrong. Certainly there are newer cryptos than bitcoin. And there are other cryptos that are better at niche use cases than bitcoin. But as far as being a usable money or store of value, bitcoin remains king of the hill.

This guy doesn't know the heck he is talking about and is possibly having some kind of a mental breakdown.

Odd thing to publicize about yourself, but okay....

The general consensus is we are going down further, maybe to re-test the 6k range or below.  Im hoping we do so I can go all in.  What a great opportunity it was last time and I missed out.  I dont plan on making the same mistake again.

Looks like you are already making the same mistake again.

Q: When is the best day to buy into Bitcoin?
a: Today. The correct answer is always 'Today'. You can't buy it yesterday. Tomorrow might be cheaper, and might not. It may never again be as cheap as today. The only certainty left is that in the future, it will be more expensive.  So, today is the day.

Something is very, very wrong, in the sampling methodology... if there is any at all!

Yes, the sampling methodology is certainly suspect. However, the fact that the percentage that indicated they already hold cryptos is ~ same as those saying they plan on it is very interesting.

40% is probably held (because we can't never know really), by 1000 entities.

So if 'we can't never know really', upon what are you basing your claims?

'Other cryptocurrencies are downright scams...like Bcash''-@jhamel's Testimony to the Canadian Standing Committee on Finance FINA

Hamel had then posted on Reddit prior to giving the crypto testimony, writing, “Spoiler: I'm gonna say ‘Bcash is a scam’ and it's gonna be archived forever in the Parliamentary records (not a blockchain but still...) Donations are welcome,”

Looks like Hamel's pandering statement was exactly that. Pathetic.

As another pointed out:

Quote
“Not to mention the fact that in terms of any governing body trying to distinguish between legitimate tech and true scams, Bcash does not clearly distinguish itself as a 'scam' while leaving Bitcoin legit. Both Bitcoin and Bcash are susceptible to influence by bad actors with enough capital to create a wake. So while assumptions being made about the motivations of actors like Roger Ver might be correct, if you seek to have the government recognize a forked chain of Bitcoin as a scam, how do you anticipate they are going to evaluate the parent technology from which Bcash forked?

The point is there is nothing inherent to Bcash protocol that makes it a ‘scam’ while Bitcoin is not.”

Negative Nelly News: Trump signs Executive Order prohibiting US entities from dealing in/with cryptos from Venezuela's gubmint (i.e, Petro).

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-taking-additional-steps-address-situation-venezuela/

Not that Petro is important. But if POTUS can use the blatantly unconstitutional 'executive order' process to unilaterally ban one crypto, where is the scope creep gonna stop?
3367  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 20, 2018, 05:38:22 PM

This is great news. Only 8% currently own cryptos, and another 8% plan to. IOW, the number planning to get in will double the ranks of crypto owners. BullishAF.

I think Goat drives one too, speaking of tool wagons.

Did he rebuy?

My understanding is that he sold the first one after BTC had retraced, and spent the USD proceeds on hella more BTC than he spent on the Lambo to begin with.

'AAR, so I heard...'

Back where we were before the weekend.
Last 2 days = wiped from my memory.
Continue as before please.
Really, I was preparing to even coldwallet my trading coins and just move to other things for a very long time as I did in 2014.

What's keeping you from doing exactly that?

Addiction to bitcointalk.org?

As a business owner I wouldn't price anything in bitcoin.

I'm still willing to honor my 2011 price for my chart topping CD. Still available for the low price of 1.2 BTC each, including shipping.

(Yes, I sold several at that price)
3373  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 17, 2018, 06:02:30 AM
This sounds lovely but I am deeply suspicious

Good. From a scan, it sounds possibly a long con. And Genesis? Any relation the the Wilnkevii's operation? No? Hmm.

bitcoin is in rekt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and take health coin with self.. dumb believe idiots are here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Delete awful troll post, or leave it up for entertainment value? That is a dilemma we regularly face here.

We're big boyz here. No need to protect our minds from seeing the stoopid.

Thanks, BTW, for restraint. More valuable than scything.

Doesn't legendary mean anything? You understand that transactions are made of data right? Processing more of them requires more bandwidth than processing less of them, right? Why am I having this ridiculous conversation? Are you high?

The amount of bandwidth consumed by industrial mining is negligible.

Do try to keep up.

Sure... if all the witnesses colluded at once then censorship exists.

I don't mean to speak out of my depth here, but currently in Byteball, are not all witnesses tonych?

I'm not a very social person and generally hate most everyone IRL.
Gotta say I find this somewhat surprising.

Tickle my taint with your tongue. Out of the regular posters in this thread, I think I hate you the most. Or maybe r0ach. I dunno. Could be a tie.

Aww. You made me sad.

Make it on Las Vegas during summer and I'm sold. Probably the only place in the world that could stand the assorted and extravagant bunch of us celebrating that awesome milestone in the most extreme and extravagant ways Smiley

Maybe we could even hire the Vodoo Lounge at the Rio (51st floor) just for our party.

Does anyone here have any experience of internet meets? I have a sneaking feeling they'd be fucking horrifying. And for some of the longstanding members there must be people with grudges against them out there, let alone blown opsec with wallet balances being linkable.

I'll send an actor. Or a cat.

Maybe rent one of these perhaps..the Howard Hughes seems apropos.

 I was involved in arranging/attending a BBS party and it was pretty cool.  The difference being that everyone resided within the local calling codes of the BBS.  What was most surprising was that there were no surprises.  Even though we were anonymous and had nicknames, people were pretty much the same as their online personas.  I left the party a little too early though because apparently i missed Rapunzel's table dance.   Cry  If i remember correctly, she was the resident cat lady; an eccentric artist.

Confirmed.

I regularly do RL meetups of folk from the Second Life music community. We take over a hotel and jam, drink, and bullshit for a weekend. Jams all over the planet, about two a quarter. Of  course, everyone in SL is 25 and beautiful. Outside, we're a motley assemblage. But peoples are peoples - pretty much the same in SL or in RL.
