Yep....keanu reeves could pretty much kill BTC just from excessive memes...he is evil....lol )

Hope you are an Oracle. I have 💯 BTC!

Laughing ass off on above. BFL Final ship date Feb 2013. My Jally showed up Oct 31st 2013!

Lots of stuff to forget in 2013 than BTC ATH!

Hey! You! On the plains of fiat land. It's us conquering mt. Gox, the gold mountain.

And you Yahoo!'s on the fiat plains, said it couldn't be done!

(Sticks out tongue 👅 to make huge raspberry psssssssst)

Lamer's

Well, a two fer.   

GOX ATH of $1242. PASSED  (checked off list of pet peeves)

Price of GOLD also PASSED.  (another pet peeve gone)

All on the same day March 2nd 2017.

Now if the ETF was to go thru. 😳 WOW.

ACK! Makes sense though on why they are in their words ...planning to release something.  Or so the
Scam goes to keep the authorities away. Only reason that makes a lick of sense.

I have 💯 btc or will eol Titan miners

I gripe but I always  hold. Can't lose imho.

I've no clue on who is correct on this block size debate..I will say again that from what I can tell the bitcoin core devs have no care about transaction fee rises nor confirmation times or other stuff that makes BTC anything remotely like being used as currency..they see BTC as a store of value (gold) only it seems to me...thus as long as price rises and no protocol to go over the current block size...they will call it a win and move on imho

not a happy camper about the lack of talk between the 2 camps on a solution ..but again feel as long as price of btc rises and works as a store of value...bitcoin core folk will just putter along with their vision..thus stalemate on this issue far into the future

maybe bitcoin core is correct and it don't matter ..but the FUD just sucks on the lack of even discussion on somehting in between..but again don't code nor know zip on which camp is right nor even if it matters....just what I THINK I am following from the bleachers...from the actions of all involved...it kinda looks lame for the above reasons to me anyway..this lack of any real movement or attempt to work it out

Anyone on here want to 'compile' this or anything linux wise you need to do to get me a copy (or on here) that is simple to set up?

Me ..the last thing I coded was applesoft BASIC in 1979 I think it was...I got as far as the LOOP command and quit and never looked back

IF someone can get me something to try..WITH lightfoots qberty bridge board fix..I'll have 5 controllers (pi) then and enough beagle bones

and jupiters left to play with an install

then perhaps...once the above is done...I can then link the file on here I used from above (making it idiot proof for me)

and then I can further make instructions on how to use that file and/or my results

(yes I am that lame...the .bin file install from KNC had me confused for days back in 2013 on the first update)

we also serve who have no coding skills.....but I can play minon and put the stuff on a couple cards and test

reply here and/or pm me if anyone hacks together something a novice can get up on an SD card

edit: gen tarkin you on? in on this action? ....setup a a donation page for lightfoot and then do your own magic on the GUI and or your other tweaks for a bit of $$$ on your page
for this version ....I myself think lightfoot should get some compensation for this but he seems firm on the pm it is not needed..still giving him a donation link and a jump off
point to port your tarky titan stuff to a BBB would be kinda keen....thou having a mess of 1 cube units using BBB's  whirlying about the house may be a bit of overkill

When it rains it pours

I think they are gonna fail the ETF a few days before...just to pull the same stunt the IRS pulled with 'guidelines' in 2013 10 days before the
tax deadline saying BTC spent (mined) etc conditions.

its how bureaucrats roll don't ya know

I also think BTC will dump as a result ..but worse case won't be under 1k imho

we will be the first to know I guess

Yeah. Some Linux devs said on some stuff they'd almost come to blows. But no one
Cared about Linux at that point of open source development angst. The problem with
BTC is at same timeline all that money and all this dev attention etc. ugh.

Wish I could find the link. But you pretty much nailed this in your post.

I could be wrong..but I seem to remember the page saying 150 usd at one time and I was very tempted..perhaps it was an error....but 90%
sure I looked at that price for a long time on that page...but alas..did not jump into the pool...ran away (coward that I am..)

He just has bigger fish to fry..from what I understand most of his fortune is now in BTC anyway.

My concern has always been the lack of asking questions......what do you guys want from LTC....is there some innovation we can add?

just the months w/o any news at all in the past...shows if not being lazy..just a lasse fare I don't care attitude

you can only ride on btc coat tails so long imho...right now LTC looks like it is going the way of Scrypt-N coins...lots of mining briefly

blew up the coin....down to worthlessness..lots of pow scrypt miners now trying to mine LTC but no price support nor development support

and other alts competing now vs 2013-2015...not a good group of actions/options to bounce up from in use and or price

does not bode well, but I guess it makes sense if the devs are not excited about LTC then it is hard to get a base/group of others to embrace LTC

my 2 ltc's worth

soon (tm bfl) in two weeks (tm bfl) to the moon (paycoin gaw)

alpha (we regret not getting ) tm alpha

they are simply playing this out to keep the British authorities at bay at this point in time......eventually their lawyers will say
they played this out enough (2-3yrs) and can claim bankruptcy then and cry and claim it was not a scam etc etc

only reason this farce is still ongoing in my view...or they would have pulled the plug and gone bankrupt 2 years ago

yeah I should probably get one..but still on the fence...probably should have gotten a mini on your 150 usd sale...alas....life issues

Someday maybe *running my TItan's into the dirt at the low LTC price...when they go doorstop I will have to look into these units*

anyway from the sidelines...a suggestion....raise your warranty to like 180 days like Bitmain..if you are having NO real issues on RMA's and returns...would look good with little risk

just my view

by the by ....when is your next miner model coming out (fall 2017 maybe) ....er if you can't say a simple 'likely in fall we will have a new model miner..also works for me)

later

yeah.....true....but 25% of them I have to wait a year to spend or 40% capital gains etc....(don't plan on it)

kinda interesting thou...at 95 btc now will be at a bit more then 100 btc at end of titans...will have ZERO invested at that time..thus 'mined' my way
out of it (dumb luck ..it was all dumb luck.not really kidding on that either)

thus ...life is the same..I'm still bored and on here.....even if what you say is true.....would reguire I get off my butt and go someplace

but then again I retire at 65 so 3 years to go from march on.... so we will see

I must admit ....if you can tuck some away (attic mine the junk in my attic on ebay to buy btc is my next goal now that home mining is dead) anyway

it does seem to make a big mental diff on your outlook on the whole thing...from your point 5x up sure.....from the other side it all goes 'tulips' the

only thing invested is time/labor/hobby

probably as close to thinking like Warren Buffet and using money (in this case as a tool only) as I'm ever gonna get close to..

but again was mostly circumstances and luck ..others on here can point that out in more detail

we will see..but it is an entirely weird way to look at this whole crypto/btc/ltc mining etc thing now since 2013 when I started...

hopefully whatever your amount of crypto you have will go up 10x ...thus you will be in my current position $$$ wise at that point ..and me...

well I'll just be further befuddled about the whole thing yet at a bigger $$$ level

its weird thou I'll give you that

Yeah ....just for a mental game of .....about time that happens...I'd like the mt. gox all time high shattered and the price of BTC to go above gold

and that be the NEW floor at worst...

mainly because I was a newbie in 2013 and the ATH was made...and it would be just mentally nice to have it all be new territory on price and adoption

from that point on.......no more revisiting the past ATH from 2013 and of course just to be 1 up on gold price as a fact would also be nice

petty perhaps..but then again I have no life...what this as a 'gimmie' (I'm on here an't I ......thus rest my case of needing lame stuff like this......life wise)

What was the price? Yuan is Ok I can convert to usd. Curious

I'm tempted to agree with you about the ETF....BUT in this case I don't think so.

My logic is that with EVERYONE saying the ETF only has a 1 out of 4 chance to pass...I think in this case the price is built in.....sure it may dump 10% if the ETF
does not pass...but folk that are putting money in BTC NOW imho ...are NOT doing so on an ETF pump of any note.

The price is going up on the past actions in the last year of BTC doubling and FOMO...

now IF the ETF did pass..then it would be bubble city and it would all bubble/surge/pop at that point

I just don't see it with the ETF odds at this time, adding all that much to the price...

anyway we will see I guess


edit: on the othe hand if the folk giving the rubber stamp to the ETF are anything like the IRS and HATE us pesky (non-banker) BTC types..they will wait to March 10th
and THEN say it is a no go....Like the IRS did on guidelines in 2013 for mining and BTC and crypto announced it 10 days before the April 15th tax filing day or some such.

If so on March 10th we will be provided with a bit of MIRTH by the powers that be..if they slap it down then.....to try and put us minions with tulip money in our place

A bureaucratic Yuk Yuk at our expense

Yep I agree......as a 'comeback' on the old 'btc is tulips' argument thou......BTC at above the value of Gold and more or less with that as a price floor from now on..sure would be nice

But yeah...a floor over a 1000 usd per btc and bringing the usage back to  like 1.00 mbit would be handy as well
