You don’t know pressure until are presenting something on screen to 400 people and you have to solve a captcha and it’s click all the mountains. And you have to say to those 400 people I dunno if that’s a mountain or just a hill so you click it and you fail.   And now you have 400 people laughing at you, although not unkindly.

Is this chart bullish or bearish?  I see overall lower highs from ATH in May 2017.  Support looks solid though.

Who wants to build an ETH killer in HTML / CSS with me?

Tera what would you use as an indicator to renter the market?  Or do you stay cashed out and rely on trading the remainder?

I fail to see how you can maintain the same number of Bitcoin AND hold your Bitcoin value to 25% of your portfolio

How exactly does one achieve this?

That's a good question. I would bet that 25% is a point he recently reached and he is now trying to maintain. Also, who said his diversified portfolio+income doesn't grow too?

Let’s not kid ourselves.  His non-Bitcoin diversified portfolio of gold and real property  did not 10x this year.

There is a huge difference based on your start point.

Someone who puts in 50% of their wealth is weak hands.

Someone who puts in 5% of their wealth and allows it to grow to 90% should be strong hands, especially if they have already taken out twice their original investment in profits.

I'm not making a hypothetical argument. The data on Coinmarketcap speaks for itself.

Try selling $100k worth of anything below the top 100 on exchange and let me know how you go with that.  

As I have previous posted, you could drive Bitcoin Unlimited to zero on QUOINEX with less than $1k worth.

He is serious. You won’t get rich restricting your best asset to 25% of the value of your portfolio.

Diversification is very effective at killing moonshot gains.  You need to allow it headroom to grow.  

Give me two more years like 2017.  Is that too much to ask?  Cool

I want neither hookers, blow nor Lambos so obviously will have some difficult decisions coming up.  

Sugar babies, crank, and Teslas it is then.

Socialists like myself prefer babushkas, krokodil and Ladas

There will be a snapshot before the transfer to mainnet in June and in theory all EOS ERC20 tokens will be reflected in the EOS genesis block.  But the hype around this is out of control.  We need to be able to short EOS from launch.
5214  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: April 29, 2018, 09:32:56 PM

If EOS (or the other competitor) convinces people into using their platform rather than using ETH, ETH will die.

Same can happen to bitcoin too *god forbid* if bcash succeeds.  Grin

When has that ever happened, that new, technologically more advanced and efficient products replace the old ones in some industry? Wink


Huh?

EOS replace the system it is built on - Ethereum

Did i miss something?

EOS is not based on ETH. The initial coin distribution is handled through ERC20. This ends after mainnet. This is the reason why EOS will hype most in this year. If the distribution cycle ends in july, then that is it, no more new coins. This will fomo the crap out of the market before launch.


Again when is EOS not built on Ethereum, just trying to understand?


ERC20 is a technical standard used for smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain for implementing tokens.




EOS doesn’t exist “yet”. 

EOS mainnet launch is 2 June 2018.  Until then, they are pumping the shit out of it, including moving to delegated proof of stake with only 21 validation nodes.  It is “fee free” as EOS is inflationary. About 2% of the monetary base is generated each year and goes to the validators.

Go look at btc dominance and tell me more about a limited supply.

I don't understand the question.
BTC dominance have nothing at all to do with the price.


The relevance is, if someone wants to use crypto they are not forced to use bitcoin, and altcoins absorb market cap that bitcoin could have had, lowering bitcoin's price in the long run and also removing arguments about scarcity because crypto is anything but scarce now.

There will come a point when every single ERC20 hasn’t delivered on its roadmap and people will start to wisen up.  As one example, the market is saturated with Storj copycats.  You aren’t going to get people excited about decentralized storage anymore.  

All “X on a blockchain” are shitty ideas except currency and tokens representing assets.

There are no decent competitors in the currency space except possibly XRB which has got nightmare scaling problems. ETH seems to have the tokens market sewn up.  XMR is leading the privacy currency space. Lightning, if consumer friendly, will do away with the need for LTC.  

I haven’t seen any convincing arguments about why VEN needs a blockchain and how they will stop corrrupt data being entered onto the chain. BCH, EOS and ADA are obvious scams, IOTA couldn’t untangle itself from a wet paper bag and I don’t need to discuss XRP, XLM or TRX.  

There really isn’t anything else useful or helpful that I have seen anywhere in the cryptosphere.  Happy to be told I am wrong and am missing things and for those things to be pointed out.

Show me a coin other than BTC, ETH or XMR that deserves to have a value above zero.

SEC Chairman - Bitcoin is not a security but almost all tokens are.  Silent on ETH.

Well I for one do believe that we will see USD 1M within five years.
And I still believe we will se USD 80k end of year.

Thanks for answering. C'on people don't be shy and express your feelings about it.

10 years is too soon.  $1 million in 12 years - after 3 halvenings.

Some rich Chinese guy who is high up in the Communist Party like all senior businessmen. The name probably isn’t important.

Are there any good analysis of how much BTC Bitmain holds?
