While proof-of-work obviously tickles the braincells in various ways, AnonyMint's posts strongly suggest that technical design is merely secondary to some agenda he's obsessing about. In spite of all his showy keyboard bashing, he sure refuses to engage in meaningful discussions.

Usually he likes to attack the intelligence of his readers and then takes his toys and claims to be leaving the forum.

I have witnessed a half dozen of his net-suicides at least.

He is an intelligent man, obviously, but something is out of balance.

Mt Gox is no longer a good metric for bitcoin price IMHO.  That said it is not meaningless.  Gox still matters, and it might just drag us down with itself.
so complaining only on the down side ?

Not in the least.  I think Gox has been relatively invalid for quite a while.  But it is currently like another planet with its own economy reflected by the sentiment that it may be insolvent. Things ARE different now.

Be wary for Bitstamp price. It is much higher than the other functioning exchanges now. If Gox finds all the bitcoins and withdrawals are resumed, they will be sold in other exchanges (bitstamp being the only one with fiat withdraw option) with massive damage to bitcoin price.


I don't think Gox is going to "find all the coins".  At least I think it is likely they lost quite a bit.  That plus the seizure of their bank account and regulatory problems means they might have to replace rather than find, both coins AND USD.

I think the Mt Gox price reflects the overall sentiment that they may be insolvent...  I don't think the arbitrage will last very long if it turns out they are not.

This is a rare opportunity, but the trick is divining what the actual opportunity is. Wink

You know, the FBI and DEA etc etc would be KURAZY not to have a room full of the most talented savant/analyst/tech gurus just pounding away 24/7 on ways to do exactly what just happened...

I bet they are mad the owner beat them to it this time.

And some of you think he doesn't have an incentive to take the money and run.

LOL.

Christ, reading this it's like Occam came to bitcointalk and traded in his razor for a plastic spork.

Contender for best post in thread.

Setting a fee threshold for low transactions might work.  It would have to be the same as the minimum at least.
5827  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gox & Karpeles still blaiming bitcoin protocol -> price crashing on: February 14, 2014, 05:54:47 AM
That is anti semitic BS. 

Seriously.

We don't need BS or racism to paint an unflattering picture of this idiot or his terrible company.  There is plenty of good hard REAL evidence against him to make this mistake.

It makes people on the right(eous) side of this argument look bad by association.

Disappearing BTC is not new, and not a single person has ever been arrested for pilfering BTC and never will.

Yeah... That's never ever happened...

I have shown my truth over and over.  I do not even know why I try to help any more.

No you haven't.  You have just been trolling with the same baseless jabbering all over the forum.

Either list some concrete evidence or shut up.

As to the subject of late registration...  how does seals stop multiaccounters from turning every tourney with a late reg into a rebuy tournament?

This would be especially applicable if the late reg period is long like an hour.

But instead they've decided to point fingers and spread the fud, knowing that it would cause a crash and damage their reputation even more.

The only motive for their act is ultimate desperation.

I believe it is connected to the "Enjoy Sochi" satoshis that are spamming the blockchain right now...

5836  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Enjoy? on: February 11, 2014, 01:44:22 AM
In my case they are only sending a satoshi to addresses with only a single input (ie cold wallets).  At one point a transaction I made seemed to be a doublespend attempt in the blockchain because of it.

Odd...  mildly concerning.

5838  Economy / Speculation / Re: What do you think the price of bitcoin will be 1 year from today (feb 2015)? on: February 09, 2014, 09:09:12 AM
I like to look at past trends and the history of bitcoin has been phenominal.  What price do you think 1 btc will cost one year from today (feb 2015)?

From seeing the past trend it seems to be exponential to me.

You might do well to consider the possibility of Bitcoin not even existing by Feb 2015. I am not saying that I think this will happen; although it is certainly possible that this star has shone too bright too soon, I am just saying that it might do your frame of mind the world of good to consider this possibility and the many ways that a Bitcoin death event might be brought about.

If you came to Bitcoin back in October or November with your obvious level of enthusiasm and anxiety to get invested. You would have done very well. But it is a very different market right now. Instead of dreaming about exponential profits, try focussing on learning to read these markets and choosing a good entry point, and then nursing your position and ensuring that you aren't going to go underwater on it. Let Feb 2015 take care of Feb 2015 itself.

I will bet you 25BTC that Bitcoin will indeed exist in Feb 2015.

Malwarebytes is blocking me from getting in. Should I be worried about getting on the site?

Does Malwarebytes know how bad you are at poker?  Could be that? Wink

Malwarebytes may have blacklisted SWC back when there was a security problem which has been fixed since.
