Thanks for posting Adam, that looks like some useful milestones.

nice catch. I'm picking that we could have a good night or two swapping similar stories over some bottles ... edit: just noticed that there were still nothing in the comments after 8 years for that damning article about the countrywide CEO making off with $150 million before the company collapsed (and was bailed out?) |

A crash is never announced in MSM. I guess it will take a few more years until faith is lost.
... you would be surprised about how many articles, like this telegraph one, I read in MSM before the 2007 seizure in the CDO, CDS markets in august that ultimately led to the 2008 stock crash. No one can say they "never saw it coming", BIS, IMF and others all were warning. I believe it depends totally on your filtering mechanism (read normalcy bias), now that there is so much information available. It is snippets from the trade floor and signs that insiders are getting out, CEO early retirements, moving to other sectors, etc, that are most valuable. If a room of traders anywhere near the capital markets, i.e. money market funds, MUNIS, corporate paper, T-bonds, gilds, LIBOR, gold, etc is saying they sense something different, pay attention. This is by no means a MSM article anyway, it is a side note by a financial section read by very small percentage of overall population. I suggest you go ask the man-on-street what the mood in the corporate bond market is currently to test your stupid comment if you believe the MSM is spouting this stuff. Basically, I think you wrong and you will lose money because of it.  |

What is the fucking obsession with talking about under age children & pedophilia on this forum?
It's disgusting.
It is a pathetic attempt to appeal to base emotions and slur bitcoin by association ... because that's all they have left. It is bottom of the barrel "real politik" employed usually by the worst regimes known. Thing is you cannot play politics with a technology revolution, so they are beaten before they even started but are really too stupid to know that, or even contemplate engaging in any other way. |

If whitelisting becomes a thing, I will make a point by only accepting black (non-whitelisted) coins.
whitelisting is dead on arrival. The technologies already exist to partially if not mostly obviate any such mis-guided efforts, it is only a matter of time for refinement, usability, improvements and probably even better fundamental advancements. At this stage, I would say bitcoins are about as good as cash. If someone robs a bank and gets away with a bag of loot they cannot just go around spending that in size at will. It might be left to go mouldy under the ground somewhere or divided up into hundreds or thousands of smaller parts. Bitcoins are similar, you could sit on "hot" coins for years or divide them up, wash them through Cayman's accounts. But being programmable money those features will inevitably be improved upon. Law enforcement needs to look ahead and start making plans for when solving crime is not as simple as "follow the money", which was always a bad idea anyway since it ushered in the police state of money and took away basic freedoms. |

People who are shorting and dissing on bitcoin will look back at themselves in deep regret in 10-20 years time.
I can only imagine how bitter and twisted a person might become to know they were present for the birth of but so negative on a new technology that is probably the most significant invention since the computer itself.

shorts wont recognise the runaway breakout when it begins because they will be the ones feeding it, as they cut their looses.

We will soon be arriving at the point where it is no longer worth keeping money in the bank (hey, 0.1% interest), nor even working when ever-more of our income will be taken by the parasite PTB.
While it is very hard to avoid the banking sector completely (I am involved in a formal business), it is not hard to pull assets away from the money-changers as well as to just say "NO!" to spending on crap you do not need... That lessens the amount of income you need, that might wind up being seized anyway when .gov gets bigger and badder.
what I find most bizarre and troubling that as the risks to leaving money on deposit in a bank have gone UP, the interest return has gone DOWN (now negative returns in some countries) ?! ... this is a huge disconnect from reality and historical precedents, something is very broken somewhere in the capital allocation machinery and the central banks are at the center of the brokenness with their hand firmly on the interest rate stick ... as the global economy spirals violently down in a sickening flat spin |

Support stacking under 260 - Only a significant wall visible before 265.
We might be going up, or the smart seller of late wants to cash a good dump.
Eth.

I was traveling for work since March 09. Eight days without hearing, reading, writing or saying the word "bitcoin". Logged back in today March/17 at about 14:00 UTC. I see that the price hasn't changed much, has it?  .. that explains NotLampTroll's absence then. |

Lightning payment channels just ended all FUD.
yup ... and some. Payment channels technology are (another) game changer ... (multi-hop off-chain transaction routing, now that is the TCP/IP of money) |
