Bitcoin: 77000 unconfirmed transactions and an All Time High. Makes Sense Well, I just sold some of my shitcoin and was making a move to Coinbase to cash out like 0.23 BTC so I can pay a bill or two. Guess that isn't going to happen anytime soon. I'm sure this recent spike in backlogged transaction is some kind of manipulation. I haven't bothered to look, but I'm sure the mempool is full of spam right now. Price is skyrocketing, news of ATH is rampant, and all the backlog is spam. Couldn't be that the recent trend has people moving funds to/from exchanges. You know, in order to take advantage of unique trading positions. Naah. Gotta be spam. Right.

Fascinating. From OP - This transaction: is 1 MB in size, has 273.99971476 BTC in fees, contains 99,940 zero-value anyone-can-spend outputs, can only be included on the blockchain if the maximum block size limit is raised, creates a direct incentive for miners to upgrade bitcoin.
(emphasis in the original) Life just gets more and more interesting. On another note, I thought nChain was just Wright's company. I didn't realize it was also the name of a competing blockchain.

Looks like the biggest shill from AMP ( DecentralizeEconomics) has moved to 'rchain' another project doomed to fail.
Wait - what!? Isn't rchain Greg Meredith's spinoff? I thought that toothless attack dog Decentralize Economics was convinced Greg was the reason for Synereo's failure to deliver? That's funny. Well, I won't miss his hideous memes. DefendKebab is a big AMP fudder, DC isn't going anywhere. He's been talking about Synereo for years and he hates Greg. Ha. Yeah, DefendKebab. I've got another set of suspicions about _that_ CHOPper of LAMB. I'm sure we'll see it all shake out over the next day or two.

GDAX at $1514.26.
Anyone ever worry about GDAX doing a DBCooper? I mean, I know that any money on any exchange is at risk, but they've always seemed the safest exchange to me. Comments?

Wait for ridiculous, and then some more.
So, ... ludicrous then? And sell then.
confirmed. but just a bit.

well from what I know a police "raid" doesn't happen just because someone transferred some euros around or has bitcoin
Well then what you know is bunk. Sometimes, raids _do_ just happen because bitcoin. Because the investigators can't discover any other reason, and they (think they) 'know' that bitcoin has no legitimate use. Of course, we don't know the real story for this case, but we do for others. Some of which fully illustrate my point.

Even in the US, you need a license, if you trade above $12,500 in Bitcoins.
Almost true. You need a business license if you 'are engaged in the business of transacting bitcoins'. Is there a dollar amount threshold? No. That threshold is for the prosecutor and your lawyer to argue over. In court. After you have been arrested, and jailed. And after you have spent large sums of money trying to defend your innocence.

This happens in the united states, not with bitcoin but with regular money.
We don't know the real story here as of yet. What we do know, is that here in 'Mer'ca, bitcoin is sometimes the pretext employed by the jackboots to ruin your life. It's a dangerous world out there, my compatriots. Try to stay safe.

I don't see SW atm..
Roger Ver is running out of money, I've got news for you. Despite all the durm und strang in these here controlled venues, Roger Ver has very little to do with the pervasive popularity of BU. Neither does Jihan. But continue to revel in your proud ignorance nevertheless...

500k a month to keep BU propped up,
You seem to be making a claim that some party is expending "500k a month to keep BU propped up". Care to substantiate this? Who is the party making this expenditure? In what way is this expenditure 'keeping BU propped up'? How do you know this to be the case? In an interview, Charlie Shrem made the claim that Roger Ver is spending $500,000/mo to "keep BU propped up". No more details than that were given. Charlie Shrem was the owner of BitInstant, which Roger Ver was a large investor of. Roger Ver denies the claim. So an unsubstantiated rumor. Got it. Now that Bitcoin Jesus has been recast as Bitcoin Judas, with a huge contingent prepared to cast him through the gates of hell, should we not be suspicious of unsubstantiated rumors? I see you've edited, so I shall also: However it is known that Roger Ver is funding >90% of BU development.
No. The vast majority of BU development is pro bono. Roger made a significant donation to the BU Foundation, but most of that cash is sitting dormant.

You are constantly defending bitmain, jihan, big blocks and bashing core with a single-minded obsessiveness, like all day long, every day. No one in their right mind would be on Bitcointalk that many hours a day, saying the same shit over and over again without it being a job. You and jonald are the two biggest shills on this forum for those reasons. I only call people shills who appear to be shills, like you two. If you are not being paid to do this, then you must have something wrong psychologically.
No one spends that amount of time and effort without being paid to do so. So yes, a shill is a shill is a shill and I'll continue to call your brethren out.
Some have a huge financial interest in the continued success of bitcoin. The existence of a direct financial interest in advocating a certain direction for bitcoin's growth does not imply that one is being paid by another party.

Imagine a CAR MANUFACTURER would do that: car can be remotely disabled.

Gee do i have to spell it out?
No need to spell it out - it is quite clear that you are contributing FUD to what might otherwise be an important discussion.

Somebody's got a sense of humor.
On GDAX this morning, 1000 BTC buy wall @ ~ $1325. Stayed stable until it's effect pushed up the price to $1337.00, then pulled.
Part of the chuckle is the price, the other part is that I find it astonishing that someone would have $1.3M un USD on this exchange just for playing games.
Well, maybe not - I had forgotten that GDAX now implements margin. Oh well.
Edit: Price dropped to ~ 1330, and the wall is back - though only 900 strong this time.
Edit2: only rode the wall up to 1336.84 this time. Maybe it wasn't just a joke.

This shit is just too confusing. How the hell is anyone supposed to see where it's going?
What's to get? 8B people, 21M coins. To the extent that Bitcoin does not get eaten by friendlier crypto, the only way to go is up. For whether they realize it or not, the people of the world need an uncensorable concealable money.
