I am so tired of staring at the price chart, but somehow I can't stop...

Most of these seasteader types are:
1. Lone wolves
2. Anti-social
3. Stubborn
4. Eccentric
5. Nerdy
6. Drug and alcohol users/abusers
7. Entitled
8. Self righteous
9. Egotistical
10. Male
Looks like I should get into seasteading... |

Bittrex is a very good respected exchange that are doing things the right way in the United States.
Polo on the other hand has had some questionable stuff happen early this year that made me switch. I'm sure it will be a trend... Look at the volumes
Also, at current prices, you can only withdraw about 2.9 BTC a day with verification (compared to 100 BTC for Bittrex). You also like/trust Bittrex? I haven't checked them out yet. |

Not sure why everybody moans about BCH, it’s obviously not going to make it long term but it’s free money & some of us are/were very happy Roger & Jihan have pumped it.
I’m not happy because I already sold it all ! It’s ok I still have all my Bgold and it’s coming along nicely. Not even thinking about Bdiamond. It has to say something about Bitcoin that on top of its astronomical rising value, a spin off, that was given away for free,just for holding Bitcoin,can now sell for around $1500 . (not to mention all the other smaller shitcoins players I wont mention) And now the latest giveaway, airdrop, fork (wtf ya wanna call it) tokens, coins ,crypto (wtf you wanna call em) are going for around $400 a pop. Now another two in the wings... (not to be named) WTF?? Its one thing to say this is getting ridiculous,scam, yada yada, and who wouldnt agree? But these things are trading for real money, ferchrissakes! baffling I say..just baffling.... Can you imagine what would happen if Joe Public knew (or even believed FTM) about all this free money sloshing around in the Bitcoin theater? Me neither..... jayzus, I love my BTCitcoin!!! Son of a b'tch I sold my BTG way too early/cheaply. |

In this moment, I am erect.
I have seen so many comments like this that I have to ask. Do some people genuinely get an erection from price rallies or is it only a figure of speech ? |

Are there decent exchanges that accept btg deposits ? |

No and Yes. "We will receive SEPA transfers in EUR and will convert them to USD according to our bank exchange rates."
Bitstamp trades pair BTC/USD. Not pair BTC/EUR.
You can swith to BTC/EUR.  of course, that is simple math. But the trades are i USD. BTW, we have in Europe not only euro. Euro is miserable currency. as far as I know you can trade $ AND €. the € market is not really deep and it is hard to get larger orders through. it is separate from the $ marketplace Yes, you are right. You will send them the euros, and they will convert them to dollars. It is not trading in euro. Dude, you are wrong. Stop it already ! https://cryptowat.ch/bitstamp/btceur |

I appear to have mastered the art of selling low and buying high...

This brings up an interesting tax thought:
If you sell your bitcoin cash for cash then you have to pay the difference between either 0 or the strike price as a profit. This is not unusual and makes sense.
However if you take your bitcoin cash and switch it into bitcoin again what happens? Technically when it split off it reduced the value of bitcoin by its value. Ok, fair enough. But if it had remained bitcoin and bitcoin went up more than bitcoin cash has isn't it technically a capital loss? Or if a gain only the differential between the bitcoin value at the time and now applied to any bitcoins sold after that time that may have been some of the bitcoin cash coins (assuming one is using LIFO, most people want to use FIFO for capital gains thus they would be screwed)?
These are the things I think about while the dryer is running with my pants in it.
Could you expand why most people want to use FIFO instead of LIFO? I would think LIFO would give you the least amount of capital gains. |

I think this will the dumpers last gasp. BTC now 3.1X more profitable to mine than BCH. https://fork.lol/My guess will be that we will see another pump that goes higher than the previous one, but I don't have any money on this. |

Fuck me, looks like I slept through some epic spikes !

Looking back, this BCH move was quite predictable. Mad at myself that I didn't act accordingly. Same goes for BTC price post-announcement of SegWit2x cancellation  Hindsight is 20/20 I guess.  |

Still waiting for the "experts in technology" of this thread to refute this point: Bitcoin’s network is going to work exactly as Satoshi programmed it. At present, miner support for the 2x hard fork is running around 83 percent. Bitcoin developer Jimmy Song made some rough calculations, based on 90 percent miner support for the fork. This is reasonable since statistical variance causes miner support to fluctuate.
Song reasoned that, if 90 percent of Bitcoin’s miners follow through with their current plan to mine SegWit2x, then:
“ Block 494784 splits to 1X and 2X. Initially, 1X has 100 minute blocks, 2X has 11 minute blocks on average. 1X and 2X have the exact same difficulty.”
Legacy Bitcoin (which Song calls “1X”) would have 100 minute blocks. This means a single transaction with a high enough fee to make it into the next block would require 10 hours to receive six confirmations. It would take nearly half a day to fully confirm a transaction on the 1X chain!
How is the ecosystem going to react to a nearly two hour block time? Given the great slowness of the network - an order of magnitude slower than pre-fork--how high will fees rise? If the block size remains the same (on the 1X chain) but there are only a tenth as many blocks, fees will have to rise to monstrous levels since there will be 10 times the competition for space in a block.
This will be no brief inconvenience, either. Song estimates that if the mining split remains as it is today, the 1X chain won’t experience a difficulty drop until Feb. 3, and block times won’t return completely to normal until March 10. Die-hard supporters of the legacy chain will be contending with nearly two hour block times and sky-high fees for about three months!
The thing that the fuckwitted autists who squeal about this never, ever, ever, ever seem to bother to mention is a small group of people known as... wait for it.... users. There are millions of them who wield staggering and overwhelming power. Miners can posture all they like. If they attempt to fuck the users then they triple entry buttfuck themselves with razorwire dildos. Every single doomsday scenario has been played out ad nauseam. We've been told were going to be murdered by everything the tossers who FUD laid out in loving detail. When it came to actual reality the risk of pissing off the users outweighed anything else and nothing happened. Ok, I understand. And the technical reasons? You are basically talking about a transient bad user experience in a hypothetical situation (in which the miners refuse to mine 1X bitcoin while it retains the highest price). This is not a technical issue. |

Guys, i can´t comprehent my sudden wealth, please help me.
This no joke. It´s probably, because i have no use of lambos, don´t know . . .
This is an interesting problem. Not quite sure what you should do other than buy a 70 foot tall grain silo, fill it with gold, and go swimming like scrooge McDuck. Donate to life extension / old-age diseases research, gmaxwell did as well ( https://www.mfoundation.org/300 ). Check www.sens.org --> they accept bitcoin. I hope to become very involved in life extension. Hopefully it will play a big role on the seastead, many seasteaders I've met so far support it. Cool, I really like the fact that it is becoming much less of a fringe idea than before, much like another radical idea/technology that we know . |
