So overall crypto market cap is rising, and Bitcoin's marketcap is also rising while alts are falling.

Poor poor lil' alties. I guess that flippening coup d'etat just wasn't meant to be. 

Stuff is happening.

You didn't have the guts to buy when it was 400.

You don't have the guts to buy now.

You won't have the guts to buy when it is $50k/btc.

You won't have any guts to buy when it becomes the next major thing, just like the Internet and Social Media.

Sorry that you don't have any guts.  

Yeah guys, Bitcoin is done. Kaput. Over. Finished.

Never will it become popular and rise to unimaginable heights in the future.

Listen to your world Financial Gurus, they know what is best for you.

Wow, the same whale that pumped the market on 10/11 is now dumping?

Whodda thunk it?  

4900 incoming.

Every time someone announces one of these YOLO moves, people have to come out of the woodwork and be FRWs (Financial Responsibility Warriors).

FFS, what nannies everyone has become. If it's not the world's Governments, Bankers, or Financial Gurus telling you what to do with your money (or how to spend it), it's your fkn fellow man. And typically it's unsolicited financial advice from the guy next to you that doesn't have a pot to piss in.

Just stop. Let people do what they want.

God forbid this family actually scores big time. Like poor miserable crabs in a bucket, everyone else wants to pull the escaping crab back in.

What a great idea, let's brainwash our fellow man and eliminate all big risk taking in our modern society, that way no one ever will.

Except, ya'know, the wealthy elite oligarchs of this world that control everything. They don't give a shit what other people think. They take big financial risks every single day, and reap the rewards and get richer, while Average Joe gets poorer and poorer because he doesn't take any risks. Ever.

And what about that guy that sold his house for bitcoin in 2013 and went all in? Who is laughing now?

Well let's just say that the BCH crew saw a fairly sizable sell order hit the books two nights ago when they were asleep at the wheel wash trading, and they panicked. In a completely fake market, it wouldn't take much.

Don't ask me how I would know that.   Or why I was LMAO yesterday.

Oh silly us, that's right. There's 3 including yourself.

It's possible they won't just trade their bch for btc, but perhaps other alt coins as well.

Either way though, I don't see any path for bch other than into the ground.

"Alas, poor Yorick..."

So they're like running the Fed and the Central Bank for BCash to keep it propped up? Hilarious.

Haha, as I predicted it is already starting.

I guess we'll finally get to see if they really have "outsized demand" or not.

One revision to the rulebook, though, that I'm not too keen on:
https://ledgerx.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/9-19-17-LedgerX-40-6-Submission-Rulebook.pdf

"Except as otherwise provided herein, Collateral must be and remain unencumbered. Each Participant posting collateral hereby grants to the Exchange a continuing first priority security interest in and lien on, lien on, right of setoff against and collateral assignment of all of such Participant’s right, title and interest in and to any property and collateral deposited with the Exchange by the Participant, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, ...."

The bolded wording above was recently added to their rulebook. Doesn't the phrase "or hereafter acquired or arising" defeat the whole 'fully collateralized' backing notion, if the collateral has not been acquired yet? Am I reading that correctly?

Seems like some funny legalese to me. I fear this wording could allow naked swap positions.

Well with the Trezor, I know from experience that the small box comes wrapped in tight cellophane, and then the box itself has several security tamper-proof seals. SatoshiLabs says to send the Trezor back if any of these have been compromised.  

They also made changes to their existing packaging as follows:

• TREZOR logo does not say “TREZOR The Bitcoin Safe”, but “TREZOR” only the package is slightly bigger (100 x 100 x 13 mm)
• There is less text on the package
• Sticker with barcode, UPC code and product name is on every package
• In the instructions is written to go to trezor.io/start instead of mytrezor.com
• There are two holographic stickers in this batch (one on each side)

At least they're trying to help with security. I don't think there is much else they can do.

So question, is BCH ever going to get pumped again? Wondering when I should jettison the rest. 

Dark matter and space-time are to humans like the ocean is to fish.... the fish aren't aware of the "substance" they swim in and thus have no way to discern it and separate it from their reality.

It's only a problem for a crypto who dev team has an official "head" dev like Ethereum does. Or like BCH, lol.

Bitcoin has 100+ voluntary developers. Many will come and go.

Also keep in mind, Linus Torvalds is still kicking and he's had enemies within the state for decades.

Eh, what difference does it make when companies like Equifax get hacked?  

There's another reason never to listen to what this guy says:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamie_Dimon

Jim Kramer comments on Bitcoin in 2014. Never forget, the establishment is against us.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kEySHOd4JU

Thank god she doesn't listen to her idiot father.

I mean J-coin.... really?

Also, he goes on saying that bitcoin is worthless, yet "Governments will someday crush it." So Mr. Dimon, why would they bother to try and crush it if it is worthless? And how exactly would they do that?

And then he says this about fiat currencies: "And a central bank — of course they can misuse it. The central bank [can also] inflate it. So there is a use case for bitcoin."

Yeah we know that you idiot, that's exactly why we like bitcoin!
