I juuust told our website maintainers to update them.

BK is a standup guy and you are a yobit scammer pushing your trash...

Scum of the earth u r says yoda !

Disclaimer :Bitcoin 5k$ in 2018  

there are news to indicate hype, but other way too, nothing new in crypto.
Would be fun to see news that someone takeover this project, and what happen after...

Clever ?
Do u mean it is fake news  ?

In the mean time... the BTC fees continue to climb.

According to this chart the minimum fee is at 280 satoshi/byte..
https://bitcoinfees.21.co/

As users like me get fucked by the BTC network.. have 6 transactions stuck for 5 days now and a useless wallet that I am afraid to touch until my transactions get rejected or executed.

Nice to see my (useless) BTC stash go up! ... and now go down!

What is Vertcoin?

Vertcoin is different. Unlike many other coins you will see on this forum, Vertcoin has a purpose, a goal which drives the community and developers to constantly innovate. Committed to the decentralisation Satoshi originally dreamed of, Vert has consistently evolved over time to combat the threats to this dream. As a result, one of our main features is ASIC resistance, having forked successfully to a new proof of work algorithm called "Lyra2RE" upon discovering that Scrypt-N ASICs were being developed, and Lyra2reV2 after discovering a botnet. We believe that by keeping the mining process in the hands of those with generalised, low-risk, consumer grade hardware, we can lower the entry requirement for miners, increasing the number of individuals mining the coin which in turn leads to true decentralisation.

Our primary innovations

Current hashing algorithm: Lyra2REv2

White paper: https://vertcoin.org/downloads/Vertcoin_Lyra2RE_Paper_11292014.pdf

Our revolutionary new proof of work algorithm, designed to be ASIC resistant at its core, made its debut at block 208301. In addition, responding to calls from our miners, Lyra2RE has a ~15% power usage reduction on X11. Lyra2RE has replaced Scrypt-N, our previous proof of work and a Vertcoin innovation in itself, in order to defeat the ASIC miners that were released for it. The fork has successfully been carried out, once again making Vertcoin a decentralised, ASIC-free zone and fulfilling Vertcoin's promise to hard-fork if an ASIC threat becomes apparent, a promise which Litecoin made, but didn't deliver on.

A splendid good morning ladies and gentlemen of Bitcoinland.

Another day, another ATH, another correction and consolidation... currently $1846USD (Bitcoinaverage).

Seems to be forming a nice bullish pennant, preparing for the next leg up.

We all know this can't go on forever. There's bound to be a more substantial correction eventually. The questions are when and how deep.

Now that we're trading over $2500CAD according to all major indexes, I'd jump all over any dip below $2000 as a buying opportunity.

I can't believe I'm actually looking at two grand as a bargain basement price.  

Go Bitcoin go.

So, straight to 10K ? 

Dooglus IS satoshi fool.

Bow down and suck his Bitcoin making pecker! 

There is a strong correlation between trading Stellar and trading CLAMs on Poloniex.  Perhaps the single entity driving the price of both coins.

Here is the 1 week charts for both:

Sorry hodlers, but I just sold out to FIAT... I am expecting at least a small correction soon.

Maybe we go back up after a small correction, or maybe there is a large correction looming.

I think I will buy back after the small correction, and curse the gods if there is a large correction.  

===>

** News Flash: Scammer calls out people he/she thinks that are scammers too, not one piece of evidence available to back up what they say, not one piece of credabilty available either, you stink of mistrust. Don't even know why I'm conversing with a thief, but at least people know what kind of person you are.

RSI is really overbought on the daily Bitstamp chart at 90. Last time RSI was 90 was back on January 3 the day before we had a $389 drop. $1780 was also an important Fibonacci extension. 

a few days ago it was like a pump to 1700
now its like a dump to 1700

The smart money is already in Flo. I'm just waiting for the pump now. I expect 10K sat by the end of the weekend and 100K by the end of the month. Could be even quicker than that with all the pumps on polo.
