I just posted this in another topic:
Yes that diluted the overall share of bitcoin in the cryptocurrency 'sector' from say 100% to 99%, but so what. Better a smaller share of a larger pie right?
Any valuable technology sector has multiple actors in it, not just one monopoly. Alts like ltc provide redundancy in case of a catastrophe or an alternative if bitcoin becomes idealogically unsound to some people causing large divides in the community (see the heated debate about Mike Hearn and blacklisting).
Anyone who thinks that the bitcoin community will remain totally in agreement in the future is simply either an idiot or protecting their btc holdings with their fanatically closed minded preaching (a la Goldbugs).
'Just fork bitcoin instead' I hear you cry. That isn't going to work as well. Too much confusion. Also you might get a new power struggle etc with the forking teams. Better to have competing alts in parallel the whole time. Ltc and its highly competent dev team (or someone else) can snap at Bitcoins heels continuously 'keeping them in line' and doing a good honest job.
So I hope the threat of alts will give the btc dev team the kick up the arse they need to avoid any mexican standoff type situations. True, new or already working altcoins could function as a "blow-off-vent" for different approaches. Nevertheless imo its a very real threat. |

One word "Government"
Four words "i dont think so"  |

Noticing the recent inner-Bitcoin discussions about "Coin Validity", Bitcoin Foundation etc i think the biggest threat for a successful expansion and adoption of Bitcoin is a possible developer breakup leading to a hard fork or even several forks.
Taking into account the often difficulty and immature personalities in those circles i really see that as a big threat to Bitcoin as a whole. Even bigger than technical problems or governmental issues. Especially since adoption, capitalization and media coverage are strongly building up.
Just my 2 1/2 satoshis...

Can this be compared to back in the days when IBM resisted the new wave of Apple computers?

Aktuell wird bei Bitstamp gerade ein kurzfristiges Dreieck beendet.

sollte sich die zweite schulter bestätigen so kann man schon sehr Bald wieder günstiger nachkaufen, wenn nicht geht es wohl wie gewöhnlich weiter nach Oben.

I don't understand. They must be packaging and shipping them all at once. I hope we aren't waiting on the extras beyond 200 that need to be produced.
2 days have gone by and nothing shipped? I thought they were in stock? Some people could've had them before the weekend.
This industry gives me ulcers.
you definitely should leave this business imo |

was ich mich bei mtgox frag warum ist. warum ist der preis dort hoeher wenn man nicht gescheit an sein geld kommt.  oder ist das die Antwort simpel. stell dir vor du hast dort 1000$ liegen und brauchst das geld zügig. mtgox braucht 6 wochen. also was bleibt? die beste variante ist für 1000$ bitcoins zu kaufen an eine andere börse zu überweisen und dort wieder zu $/€ zu wechseln. was passiert also wenn wir einen kurs von sagen wir mal 100$ haben und es probleme bei mtgox gibt? der kurs bei den anderen börsen fällt leicht da ja jetzt dort mehr coins verkauft werden und bei gox steigt der kurs da dort die auscasher jetzt bitcoins kaufen müssen. je nachdem wo die schmerzgrenze bei den auscashern liegt dort liegt dann auch der aufpreis. |

Everything in KNC world is rainbows and unicorn! Meanwhile, over in HashFast land, the crybabies are bitching about a picture of the CEO holding a big package of their recently delivered chips. The chips were delivered and they're still crying! What the hell is wrong with this world? I'm very happy that I went with KNC and Bitfury. But I wish now that I'd have invested in HF too.  You must not understand the actual situation. They promised end of October/Early November First Batch They just got their "Silicon" (Not Chips) on Feb 7th They stated the Substrate (What surrounds the silicon needed to make it into a "Chip) is delayed until Early-Mid December Once they have the working "Chips" then they have to test them and finally assemble the units. All of this going into the Holiday Season. KnC will ship their second batch before HashFast ships their first and HashFast paid $600 more then KnC November Orders and will receive 150+ LESS GH if their chip runs at 400GH like they state. I'm sure there's more but that should help you understand the mood in that thread. We had EXACTLY the same "mood" aka assholes in this thread. Remember the last weeks of september? Crumbs and others occupied this thread too and just moved on as soon as KNC started to deliver. We need a "ban-function" in this forum to keep posters out that most often arent even invested in the company they are trolling and arent adding one productive bit to the issue. They can open their own thread and keep fudding there but there should always be one "clean" thread where a good discussion about pros/cons or whatever is even possible. |

This is going to be bad.
It is going to be a long 6 weeks waiting.... Now I know why the KNC thread is 1200 pages. At the KNC thread about 90% of the idiots werent even invested in KNC. Thats the funny thing about those guys, have no intention in the whole project but keep throwing dirt. The day KNC delivered they dissapeared suddenly. And here its the same. |

Wer in Steine investiert muss aber auch schon sehr verzweifelt sein, übrigens ist genau das ein weiterer Faktor warum wir noch ne Weile steigen werden. (Meine Meinung)
Ist wie in der "freien Welt" mit dem Gold Stimmt, mal kurz den Blick für Parallelen verloren. Gold ist ja eigentlich auch nichts anderes. gold besitzt im gegensatz zu edelsteinen jedoch eine komplett andere normierungs-möglichkeit. 1 goldbarren = 1 goldbarren. bei edelsteinen geht das nicht. jeder ist unterschiedlich und jeder bewertet muster farbe etc anders. ist folglich eben nicht zu vergleichen. gold = rohstoff edelsteine = dekoration |

gibts irgendwelche harten Fakten / News / Blogs aus dem chinesischen Forum oder Raum die zeigen warum das Interesse so stark ist oder die versuchen zu analysieren wo das Interesse her kommt?
Hatte ich vor ein/zwei Tagen schonmal gepostet: Zwar kein BTC Artikel, aber es erklärt den Investitionswillen. Die haben einfach nicht die Anlegemöglichkeiten die es in der freien Welt gibt. Da kommt Bitcoin gerade recht. Noch dazu kann man dadurch Geld ausser Landes bringen, was sonst nicht so einfach ist. Edit sgat ich soll den Link noch posten: http://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/soziales/investment-wueste-china-schlechte-aussichten-fuer-anleger-a-866741.htmlLustige Formulierung, war das Absicht? Wer in Steine investiert muss aber auch schon sehr verzweifelt sein, übrigens ist genau das ein weiterer Faktor warum wir noch ne Weile steigen werden. (Meine Meinung) "freie Welt" trifft es sehr wohl. hier schreibt mir niemand vor in welche anlageklassen oder währungen ich investieren darf oder nicht. chinesen ist es von ihrem staat verboten geld ausserhalb chinas zu transferieren. ich wüsste nicht das jemand in deutschland oder den usa daran gehindert wird in indische rupien, simbabwe dollars oder afrikanische bohnenplantagen zu investieren falls er das möchte. es mag keine 100% freheit bestehen, logisch, aber es ist immer noch die mit abstand grösste freiheit weltweit die man zurzeit haben kann. soviel mal ot. |

Today I visited the KnC offices in Stockholm....
Any info about the November Batch?? |

...annnnnd this thread is starting to give me cancer again.
Yes they could have conducted this upgrade sale better but OMG I can barely read some of this crap. What is it that makes so many bitcoin miners insanely emotional and entitled?
If I was in KNC shoes I would make a preferred customers list and blacklist 90% of the people here since there is no lack of demand for their products and a seemingly infinite supply of emotionally immature customers with an overwhelming feeling of entitlement. They could save themselves a lot of grief that way...
If you are so unhappy close this thread, never come back and don't buy KNC products.

My point was that I highly doubt they pay more than $80USD to ship 3 modules with insurance to the UK and they charge $180.
My question is WHY?
Because they can. It is obvious that the people who bought the 200 modules believed the price was agreeable (total price, including shipping, import fees, and the separate HSF purchase). And judging by the speed at which they were snapped up, the buyers obviously thought the price was a steal. # they also could have done an auction and the price would have been three times higher for sure |
