Moon has entered its hard and cold phase. Only if real interest remains, it will survive and strike back. Only the bold keep mining and buying.

1. because there were more sellers than buyers
2. when there are more buyers than sellers

It won't get any easier than this. The rest is unknown to us (we cannot look into the heads of each seller and buyer). If we knew, we would be rich.

What's the problem: were you expecting $1?

30 Satoshis's is 30 above 0. Good enough for me.

Thanks for the info. At what block will the reset come?

Difficulty is getting so low that my rusty miner is getting trouble submitting work fast enough before a new block is found.

BMW E28 or E34, heavy modified. Sometimes, older is better.

Manage your risk. My 1,000 Doges wont rock the exchange, nor my well being, but it sucks for big holders.

Update your nodes in the .conf file of your client (if necessary, create a .conf file) and restart client. Look earlier in the thread for the nodes to be added.

Actually, this is already happening and could result in Scenario F : a new "new economy bubble". Look at the zillions of altcoins already in existence. I've got some Doges barking in my pocket (mobile phone) worth a couple of dollars. Mooncoin, issuing coins by the billions, is still worth something. Even Bytecoin, a complete 1:1 copy of Bitcoin and totally dead for a long period, is back and has always remained to have some value.

But don't take it from me, just look it up yourself.

The altcoins already play an essential role in the adoption of cryptocurrency and the exploration of its use. I do not see it as a danger to the prospects of this technology, but as an essential requirement thereof. Money (currency) will be freely available, but the value will be established by the free market. Hell, even now you can already buy your own altcoin for 100 mBTC.

_{I seriously think rpietila should create his own altcoin and use it for his services/endeavors as a token of trust/admiration/connection/whatever.}  

To me, this rise of the altcoins proofs that central command of money is not absolutely necessary for currency to work. Apparently, the concept of cryptocurrency has sufficient properties for the coins to be accepted as currency very easily. Of course, it's not that serious when its about fractions of a dollar, but the baby steps do not prove difficult. I bet non-tech people will have no problem using crypto in day to day life if the first 3 transactions clear and result in the groceries in their fridge. Apparently, the construction of agreement between participants that the coin has value is not that hard to achieve.

My exposure to Bitcoin is not as much as it has been. It may still rise to unbelievable heights but I see more value in the protocol itself and the use thereof that has not been established or even invented yet. Micro payments will be possible due to this technology and together with contextual computing, decentralising tendencies and crowdfunding/working, will mark a change in how we do things and get paid.

Society is moving from institutions (initially started as instruments) to emergent networks. The way money works will change (or... is changing already) as well from token to programmable software.

All this combined, the options are limitless.


Something much closer to the reality of tech than eternal faith in that what is now. Invest acccordingly.

I'm still mining it, so it's not dead yet. Just cheap(er).

What is a reasonable bet for the difficulty to reset to normal values again? I may join the mining party if it makes sense (experienced Nibble from the start).

Like mild deflation would stop people from wanting that new tech and car. Right 

Going to load up my Android wallet to show off. Dogelinionaire....

I think they will get lost?

Mining it for fun now and will awai what happens after the first block reset.

I'll give it one week until 11 January before I start submitting my feedback on trustworthiness.

2 Satoshi's now. Lowered my offer to 1 Satoshi. Down or nothing at all 

Did you email them?
