It's just coiling, like a cobra, ready to strike... right?... gentlemen?

have an exaggerated opinion that you can substitute bitcoin to altcoins that don't have this problem or already solved this problem, eventually bitcoin as a platform for consensus-building and testing scenarios of justified and I think , though, that bitcoin has run its course and at this stage it is necessary to concentrate on the more advanced features in this area, but also active implementation at all levels
After those who complain about the high fee left, the bitcoin network will be as good as before, so eventually all the poor people leave for alt-coins and rich people stay at bitcoin, which coin will be more valuable?  The one with more utility. |

If I remember correct my last trades were: buy 315, sell 418, took a vacation, and then when I could I did short above 440.
I am not even sure what my exact entry is but I feel good about said position for now...
You've just summarized a massive amount of incorrect posts in your favor. Nice try. Anyone acting on your input at this point deserves what they get. You may or may not be talking your book, but either way I rank you with Kwukduck. Good day, sir. Yep, freeman is a shill until I see proof he sold at 420. I thought he was legit at the time he said he was out at 420. I left as well. Very stupid to follow anybody's lead, I know. I was lucky enough to get back in right around the same price but lost the opportunity to short at 450, 470 etc. If BTC does go below 400 within the next 6 months I'll eat everything I said. But till then, I consider freeman to be a person or entity casting bait for sheep. Jeez Guise. Belligerently confident bulls don't have the best track record. Sure the dips towards 420 have been pretty nicely bought back up, but on low volume. This market is at the whim of whomever wants to throw some cash/coin around, and these days, I'm more likely to be placing asks than bids. Go ahead and check them, they're real. I'll be back on the good team once we have a dev team with a real plan, one that doesn't centrally plan a $6 billion economy from an irc room, and has less blatant conflicts of interest. |

It looks like rebuilder answered it already. You create an encrypted volume with VeraCrypt (or something else, do your own research as taking suggestions blindly from this forum is a bad idea), then upload that to a host (or 3) of your choosing. The data would be worthless to anyone that isn't able to decrypt it. |

Anyone archive the responses? ( they've been deleted by the posters) I missed it too, anybody? (funny joke)
(failed PUA butthurt) Yeah, I bet those human females are crawling all over you buddy. Hopefully they don't end up like the other visitors to the motel. |

Small blockers are so edgy and cool. I bet they smoke behind the bike sheds at lunchtime too. Watch out gentlemand, Richy_T's gunning for your comedy crown.  Calm, rational discussion punctuated by tourettes outbursts like that... a winning strategy for the "1MB4EVA socioeconomic majority". |

In a stunning display of courage, and with an unwavering commitment to the forging of the truth in the crucible of the dialectical method... Our friend, and highly qualified mentor, has graciously offered to continue the debate of these important ideas rather than retreat like a coward to the wizard's irc clubhouse. Like those who have not #ragequit under adversity before... may his example continue to inspire us in our efforts to fully realize the potential of this bottom-up, community driven effort towards changing the world through a fully decentralized, dialup and raspberryPi compatible, layer 1 settlement network. This, gentlemen is the curtain call. After much consideration I've decided to turn the page on this thread in light of the most recent developments but also so that it stops paying lip service to the lying fraudster above and his cohort of deception artists. (Remind me not to ever create another thread without making it self-moderated) It is clear that we now have a path forward out of this arguable gridlock thanks to the hard work of knowledgeable but most importantly resilient people. ( https://bitcoin.org/en/bitcoin-core/capacity-increases) Although it was never a consideration that a merry bunch of loud mouths with no authority could hijack the project and hardfork Bitcoin into inexistence the schism was of a great service to everyone involved with Bitcoin in that it help identify the malicious actors and to some extent purge them from the ecosystem. The leaders of this governance coup are now nowhere to be seen, Mike Hearn having revealed themselves as the villain he always was is now gone working full time for the bankers he had probably always been in cahoots with. Gavin Andresen has taken residency over at a forum populated by notorious scammer cypherdoc and dangerous, sociopath, charlatan Peter R. After previously advocating for what was deemed a "safe" immediate increase to 20MB, he is now figuratively begging on his knees for 2MB "compromise" only for the sake of forcing a contentious hard fork on Bitcoin in order to undermine the trust of investors in what projects to be the most important year for Bitcoin yet. As for the groups of shills they've spawned their "community" is in shambles largely because of the self-admitted fractious tendencies. In what proved to be its strongest menace to date it is now safe to say Bitcoin has once again demonstrated its value and the strength of its antifragile nature. Seeing as I can't bother responding anymore to the endless barrage of lies and deception spewed here by the shills (and I certainly understand why others have already given up) it would be a disservice to more naive & gullible individuals to leave the thread open and provide a stage for these scammers. Nonetheless it was a good ride and proved to be a most informative experience. I'd like to thank all of the honest contributors who've helped separate the wheat from the chaff (you know who you are). A special mention for iCEBREAKER for being the originator of the #REKT movement. It was an honor to carry the torch. To the rest of you contemptible, lying ph0rkers understand that by the grace of the internet your performances and subsequent downfall will forever be preserved for posterity and serve as a tell-tale of the consequences of going against Bitcoin. May your souls rest in peace. Long live Bitcoin! |

once bitcoin sorts out malleability then retailers will be happy to accept 0 confirms and wont care it it takes 10 minutes or 1 hour to settle as they are guaranteed to get paid.. just like visa
As ATguy mentions, RBF will fully deprecate 0 conf, making double spending a transaction a one button affair available to all. The dream of in-person retail BTC payments, after existing as a brief twinkle in our eye, will be fully sacrificed on the altar of centrally planned production quotas and artificial scarcity. Bitcoin is wealth storage and transfer for the wealthy and as a settlement layer for banks cutting edge payment processors. Poors may use Doge.  |

Not everyone who disagrees with you is a paid shill.  Some wielding massive influence over the argument are paid by organizations with strong incentives to steer the direction of Bitcoin. Perhaps it would be beneficial if you would consider that as well, while you have the conspiratorial part of your brain warmed up and humming. |

The "author" is an obvious Government Stooge working for the Big Banks... you expect me to read that?

A hard fork would break old nodes in an obvious manner. A soft fork would give the illusion that nothing had changed on your old node (even though it had). LukeJr (I believe) is credited with devising some opcode magic to shoehorn segwit in with a soft fork.

If I may... Yes, the blocksize things seems to be a neverending issue, although in most people's eyes it does not seem as complicated and the majority advocates the blocksize rise.
People continue to make such a big deal about the block size. Lots of people want to be able to use Bitcoin and hope to use it more in the future. The person or company that made Bitcoin *Pretending you didn't say that.* Why fix something that isn't broken? It is fine as it is, we don't need to change it. Doing nothing is still doing something, and it could price a bunch of potential users out too early. And here's why soft forks aren't really forks. Am I wrong? Well they're definitely forks... with something like segwit, not so soft unless you upgrade just like you would preceding a hard fork. |

People continue to make such a big deal about the block size. Our opinions aren't going to change anything. The person or company that made Bitcoin, will decide what to do about the block size. The 1MB block size was put in place to stop spam and to increase the security of Bitcoin. Why fix something that isn't broken? It is fine as it is, we don't need to change it.

Very hard to believe the guy with major in humanities is a miner of bitcoin and has a say for
bigger blocks.. seems like there is a hidden agenda with this user.. whoever it is.. he or she is a small minory left to support this altcoin
Better start digging... I'm sure there's some nefarious motive here. |
