i didn't insult others' intelligences. i teased about how in the past people have mocked my own for the predictions i've made. don't put me in the same boat.
I didn't put you in the same boat, just pointed out that neither of us walk on water... but meh, I'll just tell you what you want to hear so you'll shut up and the thread can move on. You're better than me.

No... anyone who was blindsided by that needs to learn to trade.
your arrogance is unbecoming of a trader. Ok... if you missed it you need to zoom out and quit looking at only the 5 day chart. Is that better? i didn't miss anything. i'm the OP. the charts i posted are 3-month scale. anything else? just because you didn't miss it doesn't make you better than anyone else, it just makes you more money. all i meant is that your comment made you out as a prick. Well, it was in response to this post of yours where you brag about your "predictions": so is this the day when you guys finally start listening to arepo when he makes predictions about the market?
if there are any bears left, i strongly advise you to abandon ship before the waves go HIGHER
so I guess neither of us are saints.

1. Start a seed bank. 2. Find a friend who wants to start a seed bank. Lend them seeds, but require them to give back twice what you give them. 3. Seeds increase 100 fold, yours double, your friend gets to keep 98% of what they grew. 4. Restore what was lent out, go to step 2 with the other half of what you received.
Not only does this drive the cost of living down by making food more plentiful, it gives even people with small amounts of land the ability to have a crop and to have their own savings of valuable seeds.
How's that for greedy?

My dropbox backup is wrapped in a trucrypt volume. I recommend doing the same with any sensitive information you are thinking about uploading anywhere.
Oh, I don't think I will be using dropbox anymore, for anything. I don't like people sniffing into my pants - even if they were encrypted ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I have 2 PCs running 24/7, with 3 different disks at home, plus my phone accessible via ssh - this should be enough for a backup. Screw dropbox if it screws you! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Meh... I still prefer an offsite backup. You know, in case of meteor strike.

I don't see Dwolla posted here. Is it any good?
Sure, but you'll have to jump through hoops to prove your identity to be able to deal with any bitcoin businesses. At the very least, they'll need your SSN and you'll have to wait 30 days after you first transfer money to Dwolla: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=76866.msg858870#msg858870

Since I encrypted my wallet with 0.4.0 I have been doing daily backups to my dropbox account, simply by coping wallet.dat to a dropbox folder. Then after 0.5.0 was released and the security issue was announced: The wallet encryption feature introduced in Bitcoin version 0.4.0 did not sufficiently secure the private keys. An attacker who managed to get a copy of your encrypted wallet.dat file might be able to recover some or all of the unencrypted keys and steal the associated coins. ... I did what it said: generated new addresses and moved all my funds there. Nothing had been stolen. But today I was withdrawing funds from some service... As it turned out later, I had an old withdrawal address configured in there (a one generated/encrypted by the 0.4.0). Since the amount was insignificant I didn't bother to re-check this address - just pressed "withdraw" and went to my bitcoin client to see the unconfirmed transaction. Imagine how surprised I was seeing not one, but two unconfirmed transactions; first one going to my wallet, the other one going from it... ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) And then I realized what happened: Obviously someone (either a dropbox hacker or a dropbox employee) got my encrypted wallet.dat which I backed up there (it wasn't hard to find it since I didn't even rename it) Then he managed to recover the private key from it. And he obviously also has a software that is monitoring all the transactions to the stolen addresses he has and forwarding each of them immediately to his own wallet. So be careful - with both; wallets encrypted by 0.4.0 and with Dropbox. This post is only to warn you - no comments necessary. My dropbox backup is wrapped in a trucrypt volume. I recommend doing the same with any sensitive information you are thinking about uploading anywhere.

The ultimate test of the free market is not one innovation in the market. Bitcoin is just one thing, if the incentives are set up wrong that means bitcoin fails because markets weed out wrong ideas.
But if you all drop out I'll fire up my CPU miner and take all the fees every 10 miuntes.
if your CPU mining, i will pull out my GPU and start preforming 51% attacks will their still be enough miners to make it very hard to take 51% of the network? What's the point of a 51% attack... to have all of something you've just made worthless when you could just have half of all transactions fees/subsidies? Or is it to steal a few coffees? I don't see the point.

current connections on gox are higher than normal.
I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I didn't know there was such a metric. Would you mind sharing how this is determined? http://mtgoxlive.com/orders?darkBottom left- "currently connected: ?" btccharts also has a "? online" in the top right

The point was that mean values can be misleading for certain cases.
That we can agree on... simple examples are usually better than complex ones though.

Can anyone comment on the quality of this service?

And yes, I'm claiming 1% of the population has at least a little of their leg cut off. 1% being legless is probably a stretch, but I know a lot of people who have lost at least a toe.

over 99% of humans have an above average number of legs
False ORLY? Take a ballpark guess of what the average number of legs per person is for the entire population of Earth? If you add up all of the legs that everyone has and divide it by the total number of people, what do you think that number might be? Now what do you think the one percentile is for number of legs? What is the cut off for being in the lowest 1% of the population in regards to number of legs? If you arranged the world population in a line based on how many legs they had, from most to least, how many legs would the guy who is 99% of the way down the line have? Is the one percentile higher or lower than the average? Average number of legs per person... ballpark 1.99998 (some have more, some have less, but probably more with missing/partial legs than people with extra legs) I would say that having both legs off at the hip would put you in the 1%. Legless Joe has less legs than the average. Now let's look at your statement: over 99% of humans have an above average number of legs
You're saying everyone before Joe has more than 1.99998 legs, which is not true because there are people with 1 leg, people with 1.5 legs (off at the knee), etc. Also, I gave you the benefit of the doubt by assuming there are more legless/partial legs than extra legs. Without that, your statement is just patently false.

Unfortunately, on principal alone, I can not bring myself to using IRC, although feel free to let me know if Morse Code or Smoke Signals ever become fashionable again ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Unfortunately, on principal alone, I can not bring myself to consider you anything but a closed-minded idiot, although feel free to let me know if you get off your high horse and are willing to use a solid, proven technology that is freely accessible to anybody with an internet connection and a rudimentary computer ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) .

Is this the sell off that has been NOT happening for the last month? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Hypothetically: If say 1% of the money of a 10% Stock market drop was invested in BTC.. Market cap ~16 trillion. 10% 1.6 trillion.. 1% of 10% 16 billion Imagine.. ~16 billion USD into BTC.. ~16,000,000,000 USD / ~8,000,000 BTC We'd be at ~2k USD per BTC.. This crack I'm smoking is really f'n good!! But what about 1 hundredth of a percent? By your formula, that would be 20 USD per BTC. The big investment banks are aware of bitcoin. What percent of the money flowing out of assets do you think they control? Would they throw a hundredth of a percent at Bitcoin when no other assets will hold value? Perhaps.
