In the past 24 hours, US$28 billion of value has been moved on the bitcoin blockchain. No one else even comes close.

Eth for all their talk only moved $3 billion.   Bcash moved $1.6 billion - good for them.

Yes, fees are higher on the bitcoin blockchain. Big demand, higher fees.  No surprises there.  

Now that we have Bitcoin God, can we fork it to make Bitcoin Jesus?

Of course we need more throughput.  But you need to come up with something better than just increasing blocksize by itself because that’s a shit solution from a decentralization point of view.  And I’m not seeing any other options other than LN and other second layer networks.  I’m all ears if you can point to a solution.

Bcash offers an “enhanced” user experience.  You are welcome to change your coins at a favourable exchange rate.

Consensus was that S2X was a steaming dog turd, not the least of which it got stuck on the preceding block. We never even got a chance to experience whatever other glorious bugs lurked in its code.  The reason is because it was not peer reviewed, because 99% of developers agree that a block size increase by itself doesn’t solve anything.

The big blockers had their chance and completely blew it.  They have no credibility left. The rest of us are content to wait for LN in 2018. If we don’t achieve LN in 2018, we can revisit the issue. 

Ibian:  if your solution is to give your own money to Roger Ver, may I suggest you reconsider.

Yes kindly fuck off.  Everyone here has been through all the issues you are raising a hundred times. This isn’t a transaction cost observer thread. Please feel free to start your own.  

Gab0:  we agreed less than three days ago that you weren’t going to come here and pretend to be concerned about block size.  How about you fuck off and take your concerns back to r/BTC

Because Kraken is shit and institutions probably do not want to play in their sandpit.  

is your friend a Nigerian prince?

BTG is 0.018

Superbitcoin currently 0.019

Edit:  I can’t zero.

Also mem pool filling up.   Looks like we have a rip snorter.

I like how Bcash is on a pump and there is a 1,500 BTC wall on Gdax - which is safely out of reach of buyers.  

Whale game on.  I can smell panic sales of Bitcoin this weekend.

Nice 300 BTC sell wall on Stamp @ 16,000

The rabbit hole goes ever deeper:  http://united-bitcoin.com

No she’s gone for a walk with baby bear and papa bear while they wait for their porridge to cool down.

So what’s the game plan here.  Whales going to attack their own walls to simulate a market surge?  And then short LTC and Eth?   

Fucking Ripple up 43%.  What is wrong with these people LOL.  

Oh cmon.  Who doesn’t love a furrie pony. 

Just get the cabana boy to scoop them up. 

I go out for an hour and come home and there’s badger turds in my gold swimming pool.
