... your bear cred appears to be expiring much faster than bitcoin's utility value. The market can stay wrong longer than you can remain solvent and in the long term fundamentals will inevitably be priced in, don't bet more than you can afford to lose.
And you are still unable to post anything meaningful that could contribute to the ongoing subject. Still just a troll, trying to dig out some emotional response. bear trolling is eminently useful in a bitcoin enthusiasts forum you plonker. Trolling is always useful and fun when it's creative. But you, sir, are as creative as a rock. Maybe try something else besides trolling? why would I waste perfectly good creativity on a bear trolling thread? ... this is where I come to dump on bitcoin haters, the creative magic happens elsewhere, it would be wasted on dolts like you besides.

very stable price it's good Good for what? Not for trading at least... if you're not into blind gambling, then you'll start to play only after there is some observable momentum. Good for use as a currency. Temporal stability doesn't make bitcoin good as a currency. Stability should be predictable and stable for a lot longer periods then days, weeks or even months. Currently it's just a low quality currency losing it's only attractive attribute that is being good for speculation. ... your bear cred appears to be expiring much faster than bitcoin's utility value.

Does anyone here ever actually talk about the price movement?
... has there been any price movement?

Oh yeah, the whole "you're just not ready" excuse Just put him on ignore like me and you will be better off. XT is a failed takeover of Bitcoin. Everyone should accept its fate by now. XT is not a takeover of Bitcoin, I wish you would stop saying this, I can respect your position, but saying that XT is a takeover actually harms all of Bitcoin regardless of what you believe. Rule by the economic majority is how Bitcoin is meant to be governed. So if the majority of people freely choose to adopt an alternative implementation of the Bitcoin protocol then this should be considered legitimate, even if you disagree. XT requires seventy five percent consensus in order for it to even initiate a fork after all. If Core was the client introducing BIP101 and XT represented the alternative choice for one megabyte blocks you might not have been so quick to describe XT as a takeover of Bitcoin. I do not think it is even possible to "takeover" Bitcoin. The only way for Bitcoin to lose its inherent freedom would be if people chose to give up their freedom, which is why I find such totalitarian conceptions of Bitcoin to be harmful, since Bitcoin does reflect the culture of its participants. XT can only be considered a takeover if you believe that Core should or does rule Bitcoin, which is the same as saying that this small group of technical experts should decide on the future of Bitcoin. I find this mentality to be totalitarian in nature and antithetical to the ethos of Bitcoin. The only way to destroy freedom, is to convince people they are safer without it. This is exactly what is happening to Bitcoin. https://medium.com/@riprowan/the-entire-debate-transcends-block-sizes-and-gets-to-the-fundamental-principles-of-bitcoin-as-c7f7bc1a493#.e6tlubrv7Your posts are an oasis of rationality, nuance, and higher level understanding in this thread. Thank you for posting -- I'm sure there are many other lurkers like me who appreciate it. The lack of intelligent, thoughtful responses you see to your posts says a lot about the caliber of most of those posting opposing viewpoints (not all! some are thoughtful -- you know who you are, thank you). Rather he's a charlatan, or prolific shill, who you have been sucked in by, All you are doing is demonstrating your lack of knowledge of the art, or intelligence to know you are out of your field, passing judgement on things you are not equipped to be assessing.

The miniblockists are finally quiet: Nothing left to say since Hearn has RageQuit ... the general has left soldier, battle is over, go home to your wife and kids and farm some bitcoins.

Mike's final "Fuck You!!!" to Bitcoin: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3tftas/mike_hearn_now_working_for_r3cv_blockchain/cx5wwwu"The current Bitcoin system, I mean the system we actually use today with the block chain, isn't going to change the world at all due to the 1mb limit. Unless the community changes direction very clearly (which in practice will require getting rid of Bitcoin Core completely), then "the system" will simply wither on the vine whilst the community waits for Lightning, or whatever solution they're being sold. But Lightning bears no resemblance to the Bitcoin I signed up to work on 5 years ago. It's an entirely different design which looks very much like the existing model of banking - nodes that hold people's money (i.e. may end up regulated), route it between them, no support for smart contracts, byzantine complexity due to being built on a 'legacy' layer that wasn't designed for it, occasional settlement between parties etc. Assuming it even works at all. So if I have a choice between helping the existing financial system build something better than what they have today that resembles Bitcoin, or helping the Bitcoin community build something worse than what they have today that resembles banking, then I may as well go where the users are and work with the banks."... qualifies as a legitimate open source RageQuit. Free to compete on your merits Mike. Good luck with the incompetent banks coming up with a better bitcoin.

mmmm, lamb-chops on the grill is good Lamb's always a point of contention in my house. I love the rich, unique flavor and wondrous, delicious fat of lamb, while my wife opts out of it for the exact same reasons. In researching for this lamb-grilling guide, I may have finally swayed her to my side with a set of perfectly grilled lamb chops, further solidifying my notion that the grill makes just about everything better.
So whether you're a lamb love, hater, or somewhere in between, it's worth trying your hand at lamb on the grill. It's one of the greatest ways to cook this incredible meat. http://www.seriouseats.com/2012/07/how-to-grill-perfect-lamb-rib-or-loin-chops.html

The identity of the one you all know as "lambie" and her many other sockpuppets is none other than Izabella Kaminska. Her twitter is https://twitter.com/izakaminskaShe is employed as a "journalist" by FT Alphaville. She should have been more careful, but oh well, I am good at what I do and it probably wouldn't have stopped me if she had been. Enjoy this gift I bring to you friends and sleep easy knowing that I will not do this to any of you as long as you don't engage in behavior similar to hers. Yours Truly, The Doxing interesting ... fits the failed-intellectual, sick-mind, "fatal attractionesque" spurned bitter-crone, fiat-suck-up profile, proof will be good.

Nothing to see here. The cheerleaders of the Judean Front National still believe to represent Bitcoin. Unbelievable. Even in the censored subreddit Mike gets the most upvotes.
... sounds like you're another footsoldier for BankCoin, report to Hearn for duties.

More ad hominem from the usual suspects. I do not care who writes the code, what matters is what is in the code itself. Even if the code was written by the devil himself or any other monster from the annals of history, I would still support it, because the code that is within BIP101 does represent the best path for Bitcoin going into the future, compared to the alternatives.
It's verifiable facts. Your understanding of fallacies is that of a 14 year-old. I am saying that I do not care about who writes the code and what kind of a person they are or even what their motivations might be, it should not be a popularity contest. This is my opinion and the verifiable facts do not change this whatsoever. Hearn's code is crap too ... so you are on our page.

... It's a shame the political and social narative of the modern world is shaped entirely by people with mental disorders.
*narrative How is it that these mentally deficient inferior mongrel weaklings triumphed over your clearly superior [for a c0ckr0ach] genetic stock Probably the same reason the least useful members of civilization: sports players, actors, hedge fund managers, make a million times more than people who produce food, clothing and shelter. where do hot refugees fit into that line-up? http://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/life/74194603/horrendous-website-makes-light-of-refugee-crisis-by-ranking-hot-syrian-women

Two of my children have a brown hair as opposed to my wife's black and though all three of my children have brown eyes they are a far lighter shade of brown then that of my wife. People often ask my wife if her husband is western after seeing my children as they can tell they are mixed. ^^ DNA testing? jk.
