Your shitcoin ponzis are collapsing around you, your frauds are exposed, your bags worthless.
We the people hold over 75% of all the sound money there will ever be in this world.
Maybe a few of you have a few thousand btc? So does the guy in his boxers, and he knows how to secure it against you and your black vans.
The bitcoin protocol ticks over with or without you.
Whaddayagonnado?


Don't give them any ideas, please.
Remember what FDR did in 1933?
I fully expect an attempt to dissociate early adopters from their bitcoin in due course.
How? I have a few concerns/potential routes, not going to spell it out.
Will it succeed? Hopefully, not, but you can't seriously expect PTB to acquiesce with just 4-5 mil (at the most) ownership out of the final 21 mil.
I think that PTB did not start buying until the middle of last year, hence the math.

ML: "А на стоках нынче жопа."
Google translate: "And the sewers are now an asshole."

bad google is bad.

I think that he means stocks, it is just russian spelling of an english word "stocks" without translating it, hence the meaning probably is:

"Stocks are in the ass right now", which would be an equivalent of more exact "stocks are s--t right now"

I think that ml does this heavy jargon on purpose.

In theory all the oxygen in the room you currently reside in could go to the roof, leaving your with a nice mix of co2 and nitrate to try breathing. In theory.

Not without an influx of energy in order to overcome the entropy.

Energy, entropy...how about a block universe idea (strangely rhyming with blockchain).
I think that blockchain now informs some new interesting ideas in physics.

Read an interesting discussion on time, entropy and block universe here:

I would like a place with nice weather Wink where I may eventually retire.
The whole ERTH thing started to get on my nerves. Too much crap all over.
I would like to have an ability to be left pretty much alone with my immediate family, yet maintain some western style comforts.
Too much to ask?

What would be of crypto without all its nonsense drama?

They probably don't realize it or care, but it's people like Roger, CSW, and Mcafee that are hindering mass adoption. They are putting the face of crazy on Bitcoin and crypto. Average Joes don't want to be associated with such nonsense.

I kind of agree with the point, but here is a counterpoint: Elon Musk (an absolute WS and MSM hero in the last few years) sometimes does say a nonsensical thing or two, but his latest joke was roundly criticized. Why? Because CEO of a company which stock declined 30% and debt was downgraded and is trading at 90c/$ should not make these kind of jokes.
Conclusion: when your stock is hot, everyone ignores a misstep or two, but when it is declining fairly rapidly, you should be a bit more CRAEFUL with what you say, I guess.

TL;DR this is not about bch, Roger or CSW, but rather about nonsensical statements and mass adoption/perception.

I call BS on these rumors.

It's too early for governments to start buying btc as a part of a basket of currencies.

An interesting take on bitcoin (it could have been posted here, but it is a first time I have seen it):

https://s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/john-pfeffer/An+Investor%27s+Take+on+Cryptoassets+v6.pdf

Major points:

1. $4.4-9.9 tril final value for the store of value use, but could rapidly (months) increase to $1.5 tril (which is about $112K or $86k fully diluted). My opinion: he wrote it when btc was at 15-17K, so run up in months to $1.5 tril would be postponed, most likely.

2. An interesting comparison with AMZN, which was $107 in 2000 but was $1600 recently. In between AMZN declined to $5-6.
The author says that if you calculate by dec 2017 AMZN price, it increased "only" by 14% yearly between buying during internet "bubble" peak and Dec 2017. I recalculated to the recent AMZN peak of $1600 and it is rather 16.5% yearly.
However, if you count from 2001 AMZN low of  5.76, you'll get 39.5% yearly return from 2001-2018.
Well , 39.5 is much better than 14-16.5%, but even 16.5% is OK.

I guess my point is that those who bought at $17-20K would be similar to investors who bought AMZN at around $100 in 2000 and those who bought either earlier (up to btc $1000) or later (at the bottom whenever it comes) would be in a similar situation to AMZN buyers at either IPO or in 2001. They would just have to wait maybe a decade or so. The upper target in the article is 260-800K/btc.

if you're one of the 15 (10? 5? 1?) percent of traders which are profitable - congratulations!

yep, the more you trade, the less likely is that you would be profitable.
that is, if you are human and not an algo.

re gold: maybe not a bad idea, but how would I know that it is real gold and not fake with all these cases of high quality fake gold spreading lately. Bitcoin cannot be fake.

Re lambo- nice ride, congrats.
5174  Economy / Speculation / Re: Log graph of bitcoins growth in price from 2010-18 - ? catch a falling knife? on: April 01, 2018, 06:54:12 AM
The thing is ... I don't believe in the logarithmic line.

Simply because it takes double the amount if FIAT to rise from 10k to 20k than it does from 5k to 10k.

You have do double the FIAT again to rise from 20k to 40k.

Where should this exponentially rising money come from?

Did stock market somehow got twice as much money to raise from 12K Dow in 2012to 24K today?
Short answer: it does not work this way.
You need much less than a full value to move the market. How much? Maybe as little as 10%.

Well that block should cheer up everyone who didn't do a runner coz of February Smiley

So for this year, Jan+Feb+Mar luck is back over 100% if we add all 3 months together,
i.e. including the bad luck of February, and will stay over 100% since:
if we find more blocks in the last day, there's only 21 hours left in the month after that one, it'll keep us on the good line Smiley

Also looks like a low diff change coming for the start of April

Mine on!

Actually, it goes now all the way to last October (58 vs 58.19 expected, which is essentially 100%).
one more and it would be above 100% for the latest five months (it's above 100% already for oldies mining for more than a year-check that 57.5wk number!).
excellent!

I've used to make 17,000 2Pacs with pretty fair reliability.

17K? Wow. That's getting close to a mass market.
I recall that that there were only about 1-2K of the original stick (Compac, single chip), but maybe more were made later.

On bull and bear in btc...

There were too few bull/bear markets in btc, but assuming that average bull bear in btc is at least similar to stock markets, here is an interesting snippet:

One source indicates that stock bull averages 97mo while bear 18 mo, while another source states 31 mo bull and 10 mo bear, yet a third one says that average bull lasted 48mo and bear 14 mo.
A have no idea why the numbers vary so much, maybe because of underlying methodology (pretty much all counted since 1925-1930 until today).

https://www.forbes.com/sites/robertlenzner/2015/01/02/bull-markets-last-five-times-longer-than-bear-markets/
https://www.ftportfolios.com/Common/ContentFileLoader.aspx?ContentGUID=4ecfa978-d0bb-4924-92c8-628ff9bfe12d
https://paulmerriman.com/22-things-know-bear-markets/
https://www.mackenzieinvestments.com/en/assets/documents/marketingmaterials/mm-bull-bear-markets-sp500-en.pdf

Entry points:

31 and 10
48 and 14
108 and 16.8
97 and 18

If, for simplification purposes, we ignore the duration and just focus on bull/bear ratio, then we get bull/bear duration (proportion) at 3.1, 3.42, 5.38 and 6.43.

Applying these numbers back to the prior bitcoin bull that lasted approx 35mo (which is very similar to the first two aforementioned stock market bulls, incidentally), then 3.1 ratio would give us 11.3mo bear, 3.42-10.2 mo, 5.38-6.5 mo and the last 5.44 mo bear.
That said, the latter corresponds to a very long bull, which we did not have; ours was more like the first two.
5.44 mo from Dec 16 is the end of May, which is most optimistic with October-Nov of 2018 fitting data a bit better

TL;DR this model suggests a 5.44-11.3 mo long bear, which indicates bear lasting until May 30-Nov 24, 2018.
