Bearstamp's finally pumped up to $1010. If bearstamp's over $1000 then all the important exchanges should also be above it. The confidence is returning to the market now pools like f2pool are stating they will prevent any attempts at a fork.

You have to ask... What took them so long?

BU hashrate 47,2% the last 24 hours.
SELL, PANIC,
Bitcoin is DEAD Shocked

No, seriously, I am a bit worried. My life saving is all in, it's quite stressing.

Well this is certainly getting Interesting.
The market doesn't massively seem to care yet though. Still pushing $1k.

A sample of what listing a cryptocurrency on a big exchanger does, its price is over the ICO value, and the BIDs volume is ok, not like other coins (*cough* INCENT, *cough* INCENT) are at the moment.


Do you know the phrase 'The tail wags the dog'? Exchanges do not guarantee 'success'. Users do.
If you were looking for a fast exit at profit, you should never have invested. We're not a P&D, we actually want to build real value.
If you want something that has a shot at a long-term future, that's a different matter.

I'll do you a deal, since you clearly took a wrong turn somewhere but I know what's coming down the track. I'll buy your Incent from you at 4196 sats, currently the last price on Cryptopia, up to a maximum of 1 BTC. Details over Slack, you send first or Yassin as escrow.

If you think we have no future, you should sell now. If you think we're going somewhere interesting, this temporary dip shouldn't bother you.

lots of coins went up in value since bitcoin drop down, but INCENT keep there nothing happens ~4k to ~4.2k satoshis, if the value in the bitcoin doesnt change the value of INCT (which is the normal thing to happen) what will do it. Do not answer with the 'market will do it', because when INCT ICO finished and its value dorp down far below the ICO price devs said it was because bitcoin price went up and the value in fiat would be the same, but now what?.

WTF, TOKES on bittrex already! and INCENT isnt and as all of us can see theres no hope it will be right? how much did the ICO rise? theres no 3BTC to list INCT on bittrex?.

Hi Dev, Yeah, Tokes is now on Bittrex so work your magic and try and get this great Incent coin there too.
Investors  are waiting.

       Undecided

We are not actively pursuing listing on Bittrex at the moment, for reasons already explained.
In the next week or two we should be able to roll out our marketmaking strategy, which will add depth to the orderbooks - and allow us to settle with merchants, which we'll also have some news about.
THAT is what will make a successful crypto project that can be adopted by mainstream users, and which consequently might be of interest to exchanges. Not the other way round. Exchange listing isn't a silver bullet for growth or success.

I've held back from trying to discuss my concerns here because I know I'll only get accused of spreading FUD but, since I do have skin in the game too, I'm going to post anyway.

The way I see it, Bitcoin Core vs. Unlimited isn't the problem, the prospect of a hardfork isn't the problem.  The problem is the total inability for Bitcoin to reach any sort of consensus.  I think many of us now are past giving a fuck about how the blocksize issue is resolved.  Double the blocksize or halve it, implement some wizardry or tell the microtransactions to sod off and use alts instead, it really doesn't matter.  What matters is that it is resolved one way or another.  The lack of governance is the real problem, only compounded by the refusal of so many to even acknowledge that there is a problem at all.

As others have said here before me, what makes this crash so difficult to stomach isn't the falling price.  We've all seen bitcoin win all sorts of challenges before.  What makes this one so disturbing is that the threat is on the inside, bitcoin's lack of governance, lack of ability to say "this is a problem and this is how we're going to fix it" is actually tearing it apart from the inside.  I'd rather see bitcoin drop to $200 because of China or the US government than to $900 because of infighting.  At least then I'd have some confidence that it would come through, but Bitcoin can only win through if it's in good fighting form and right now it isn't.

At risk of incurring the wrath of the Bad Analogy Police, Bitcoin right now reminds me of Ellen Ripley.  She could fight off any predator and overcome any threat until the threat came from within her own body.  Then she was forced to destroy herself before it destroyed her.

Yes, she was resurrected stronger and cooler for the fourth movie but that took many years and many failed attempts, and even when they succeeded in bringing her back to life she was fundamentally different as a result of incorporating the alien DNA into her own  Tongue


tl;dr: we just need a solution, any solution, but that does mean first accepting that there's a problem in the first place.

I get what you're saying and it's a good analogy up to a point, but seriously, some things should be allowed to die. 4th Aliens movie is like the 3rd Mad Max. No need to bring that stuff up.

York I apologize for publicly criticizing you. Great calls, I must say. Hope you are right. The past week has been kind of stressful for us bitcoiners.

Dont mention it man. We are here to help each other out.

Credit where it's due, it takes a man to admit he's wrong.
527  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 25, 2017, 07:51:29 AM

Well, you called the dump pretty well. Bottom was $900.20.
528  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 24, 2017, 01:41:25 PM

To get 2/3 or 3/4 of the hashrate isn't THAT easy. At least i think so.



A large mining pool might tip the scales to 51% now. That would be a powerful signal.
95%? Forget it. Ever. Just don't know how that one gets resolved.

51% is not enough to HF securely and you are aware of that 2/3 and 3/4 ≠ 95%?  Wink

Let me just phone Carol Vorderman to check your maths.

Indeed. They're conspiring a 51% attack:

Would anyone seriously preparing a 51% attack tell everyone about it beforehand? Or is this just scare tactics?

I think it's actually smart to do, from the perspective of the attacker. You're essentially saying: I'm doing this. You can get on board now, or suffer later. I.e. by trailing it, you actually help yourself by getting more miners on board in the early stages.

Here you go.

Dump will happen because of fear for a bear market, and lots of traders will jump on the Eth train that started yesterday

So basically your target is ~$800 and if it goes below that, hello bear.

I will jump in if it goes below 900$. But 800$ is possible but i have to admit that i dont have the guts to wait that long.

Ok, thank you. Now we will see if it comes to pass. Smiley
Personally I think it's quite possible that the market's nerves around BU and the failed ETF bid are still to play out.

100% there will be dump, below 900$
Mmm, if everybody starts agreeing with me, I might have to reconsider  Huh     Wink
No trust yourself. The law of the 3 dead cat bounces always works.

Yes, correct.
It always works except in those cases when it doesn't.
You are so wise. You must understand the casus fully. You are the real expert here.

Ok, kids. Cards on the table. Where is the bottom? Or where's the next move up to if there's no dump?
Specifics, please. Then it will be clear who was right and who was wrong after the fact.
534  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 24, 2017, 09:21:26 AM
In the past 24 hours it seems that some percentage of signaling mined blocks have changed from BU to Segwit. (4% over the total, 12% change from BU to Segwit).

https://coin.dance/blocks

BU: 36.1%
Segwit: 31.9%
8MB: 5.6%

Maybe its just an oscillation... but worth pointing it. (ANTPOOL, representing almost half of BU signaling, is still doing it, though).


Which means that right now, Antpool could swing the balance by tipping the total to within a whisker of 51%. Would be a pretty powerful signal.
Wonder if there will be some kind of backhander or closed-doors negotiation and then suddenly, he'll change sides.

Hi sasha,

i´m a bit shocked at the moment. I am using the waves lite client without problems till today. I also uses thic client to recieve tokens and free waves from sites like wavesdrop. Because of the mobilego ico i am expecting a sharp rise in INCENT, so i transfered 10 minutes ago all my 1900 INCNT to my legit cryptopia address. I used a fee of 0.003 waves, more than recommended. I saw the transaction blinking for some moments and than disappearing. It is not shown in my latest transactions nor pending in my cryptopia account. After that i made a small transfer of 1 waves to my cryptopia address also. Here happened the same thing. Now i can see my Waves transfer pending, but no INCNT at all. In past transactions i can get a TX ID but not here. I am not that technical because to check if something and when yes what went wrong with transfers. I am very confused cause my INCNT investment is from the first hour and BIG for my circumstances. If there is no other solution i would also be ready to give u access to my wallet over my seed that u can check it directly.

Appreciate an answer and kind regards

Maybe some other pros can give me an advice what i can do. Waves recieved, INCNT not even shown (and i have no hash or something else). Was the fee too low? I´m curious....

There seems to be some sort of issue with Cryptopia. In the Incent Slack someone reported that Incent deposits aren't working. So it looks like it might be on their end.

95% hashrate activation seems crazy. I can't understand why they ever thought that was going to happen.
537  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: March 23, 2017, 06:20:32 PM
...
If segwit has not activated by the end of one retarget period after 15 November 2017, segwit will cease to be eligible for activation.

So we have time until November to reach 2k$ or higher, then doom (because the fuckin' miners won't let Segwit happen)... good to know.
no segwit means crash? Or fork? Or both? Man why is there always something to screw the btc price Undecided

It's a big ask, and I can't see it happening. But we'll know it's dead well before the deadline, so it won't affect the market.

Good lord, the amount of concern-trolling in this thread has now reached epic levels.   Roll Eyes
bull trap. Thats all i am going to say.

No, I'm pretty sure you're going to say more Smiley

Lmao. Good one!
By the way, when is the bitcoin 1000$ party?!

After next weekend, when PBoC unexpectedly forces US regulators to approve SolidX by threatening to dump its USD reserves and simultaneously disappears Jihan.

Hey guys  Huh
Is it save now to keep BTC on blockchain info
and what happens with it after fork  Huh



Just make sure you have your keys. Blockchain.info lets you access them. Do it and keep them somewhere safe Smiley

ok ty  Wink
crazy stuff is going on with this unlimited  bitcoin Undecided

I'm still very unclear of the odds of it actually happening. Vinny Lingham had some interesting insights earlier. https://vinnylingham.com/the-power-of-the-invisible-hand-56efaedfb544#.19bmedhhn
It seems it was pretty controversial, so I'm just reading his follow up.
