4361  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what is the future of the crazy ICO market? on: June 24, 2017, 07:50:31 AM
This has gone crazy like dot com bubble now.

It is really hard to filter for the 'fair' ICO- premined- scam- free coins that have some real different features than bitcoin. I only encounterd ZCL here but I have not the full overview nor the time for analysing this...


The rest is just the model: Sell to idiots. Few make money.

If you guys tell me he's not trolling any more I'll reconsider.

I'd recommend.  I feel he's more ranting and overdoing rather than 'trolling'. Some USAF guys are 'ranting' same manner and we should be able to filter that kind of porn by ourselves - otherwise I read on reddit/bitcoin if I cant stand that kind.

83.3% support now with NYA in their coinbase so it's reached activation levels. This has been helped by bitclubnetwork joining them, however they've also actually started the real signalling on bit4/1 that activates it in mid-july. The reason is that the admin of that pool is the one that defined BIP91 and wrote the code for it so he's the first to use it as more than just proof of concept.

Well this is good news for a change!

You know, at this point Segwit2x is better than a chain split. Let's hope for the best.
With the segwit component assured now, indeed it is at this point, until we get to the 2x part of it. That's when the next battle begins.

The 2x might buy some time to prepare next scaling steps. Not sure if community is prepared better if this is needed in some years.
4365  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Volatility - major reasons for ?! on: June 22, 2017, 11:01:41 AM
I think the main reason is because the price is undervalued. If bitcoin were trading at $100k a coin, then a swing of $10k in either direction (which would be huge by today's standards) would not be considered so huge.

Bitcoin is traded very freely - you have sellers and buyes finding a price. The evaluation IS market to market - fair and correct.

I guess you speak about the trend - this is clear a massive up-trend and  we see many days with 10% up and a few 20% down - doesn't matter if we are in different price regimes:
2011: 2 -30   
2013: 100-1200
2017: 800 -3000

2022:10k-100k ?

New asset class for sure!
4369  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Volatility - major reasons for ?! on: June 21, 2017, 02:03:16 PM
I think the only reason for that is because Bitcoin does not have a real economy yet. It is just used for trading purpose, unline other traditional currencies which are used to buy and sell stuff

For all bigger currencies there is a huge 'efficient' FX market / huge volume trading in place - that keeps the vola in a narrow range.

And yes - economy is also a fact there and mostly corridored to +2% p.a. - vola is low due to that as well...

let´s look at other factors of dominance, not market cap (which is so easily manipulated, that it does not proof anything).

let´s look at how many goods are bought with bitcoin compared to all other altcoins.

let´s look at how many merchants accept bitcoin compared to all other altcoins.

let´s look what crypto is used for cross border payments.

let´s look how many bitcoin-start-ups are existing compared to all other altcoins.

i bet in every single comparison, bitcoin dominance is still in the 80-90% area. 

Good list, but you missed a few more more.

let's look at what the MSM is obsessed about writing about (Bitcoin) and creating FUD about, and not all other altcoins.

let's look at what the governments of the world are obsessed with trying to regulate (Bitcoin) with little to no mention of all other altcoins.

let's look at what ANYONE is trying to get an ETF approved for (Bitcoin) and NO other altcoin.

1. First they ignore you <----- all altcoins are here, and 99.99% will stay here forever
2. Then they laugh at you <----- 0.01% altcoins will make it here and stay here forever
3. Then they fight you <----- Bitcoin is here now
4. Then you win

I consider altcoins a scaling solution. Profoundly censorship-resistant transfers of value are a serious business; there will always be plenty of new tokens out there for micro-transactions and shameless speculation. Every Doge will have its day.

I'd expect a sharp dot.com like wash out the next few months - (years).
There is not much room for 1k coins most like we have Amazon, Google, Ebay, Apple,Facebook. That's the market and off you go.

4373  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Volatility - major reasons for ?! on: June 21, 2017, 12:55:41 PM
I just try to find the major reasons for the very high volatility of bitcoins price we all encountered over the last years.

1) Exponential Growth ( in trust and usage)

It's clear this is a very strong reason to cause price volatility, since we have double and double of requesters that all needs to get coins from a scarce bitcoin supply.
So we see price squeezes all over the time (more up than down). Further we have no or lost experience with such exponential growth process esp in money (last adoption was gold some 1000 years before)


2) Evaluation Base CCY ?
I have the strong suspicion that bitcoins volatility is positive correlated to the volatility of the lowest trusted fiat currencies' volatility in the world.
Sadly I cannot proof this by averaging the historical volatilities of a 'poor's currency basket' of (Zimbabwe$, Venezuela$, Egypt pound, Jemen slotty, Syria Dinar,..xyz...) but I estimate, that we have same volatility there as in bitcoin. And all people living in those countries should be way better off with bitcoin and it's vola!
We just see and measure BTC/USD - volatility is high, but we forget where it's based on - on the poor ccys all together - but they are dominant here.

3) Heterogeneous / Fragmented Markets
We now have some 100 different exchanges and local places where you can exchange you bitcoin against any other fiat or crypto. There is no condensed order book / matching for a trade and limited arbitrage due to capital protection of some states.
I'd guess we'd see a fraction of the actual volatility, if we would have a (ideal) single world exchange, where all must trade BTC/USD (USD is just a default example for a world fiat and rest crypto ccy) .


Any other reasons you could see?

Last time r0ach was talking about a bearish head and shoulders bitcoin went from $1100 to $3000.

Nah, I said the chart looked bearish and then Scamfinex turned off withdrawals, forcing all sellers to become buyers while also squeezing every short in existence, which artifically pumped the market higher.  Then people saw that rise and thought the cup and handle pattern was in play and just kept pumping it higher.  It was pretty much the perfect storm of Finex manipulation that was not based on any type of fundamentals or news or anything.  

It's much harder to repeat such pumps when the transaction fees are out of control though.  I imagined bitcoin growth would slow down tremendously once transaction fees got to around $2 and excess traffic would leave with Litecoin being the main beneficiary, so with current bitcoin fees spiking to the moon and some exchanges charging $7 transaction fees, that's what is happening.


Hu?  Then go for Satoshis, they are hell of cheap!

4379  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Barry Silbert segwit agreement with >80% miner agreement. (Part II) on: June 14, 2017, 10:15:25 AM
should be discussed by the community in as open and as free a manner as possible.
Then you make a self moderated thread? Tongue

In any case... I'd say stick a fork in it,  but it sounds like Bitmain is now planning on doing just that.  They've announced their intention to fork off onto a new and incompatible direction,  (also publicly announced that they plan to do a 72-hour selfish mine on their fork, which is ... odd to announce).

In my view, that after the near unanimous rejection of segwit2x by active developers (even BU) Bitmain announcing they're gonna do a spinoff is the final killing blow on that absurd agreement.


1. if core is perfect working code, then why does it need "fixes" such as malleability, quadratics
uh, those things are not dealing with "code" features they're limitations in the Bitcoin protocol which are fixed by segwit. Segwit is the fix and it was needed because the protocol design Satoshi had a few limitations.  There have been many softforks in the past to fix other limitations in the original design-- some performed by Satoshi himself, some performed by the current folks that maintain the software.

I'd guess, all what we will do to bitcoin from now on will be backward incompatible per se - or a hack that's shifting the time point a bit further - and than we must do that incompatible change.

The hard task is just to filter out what we NOT want to do.

I still like to see sth as open (source) as possible, small code base, minimum protocol like - multiple clients , markets decide what's best -> evolution!

for the 100,000,000,000th time, nobody cares about the total market capitalization!

altcoins can easily make billions of coin out of thin air and with 0.00000001 price or ever less (yes there are a lot of them worth half a satoshi or 1/100 of a satoshi) and make this total market cap grow out of proportion, just like what your beloved ethereum does Wink
