I reckon this is an easy win for Manny. He has shown the same intensity as when he was young, maybe steroids? hehehe

In any case, Adrien Broner is on the the decline, and this fight is more favorable for him if he wins, than for Manny if Manny wins. Floyd, even now, remains the unconquerable mountain for the Pacman.
7482  Economy / Speculation / Bakkt delays their launch on: November 21, 2018, 02:13:30 AM
Might Bakkt's delay also responsible for the dump? This is very dubious timing hehehe. The whales begun dumping 1 week before Bakkt's announcement of the delay.

I speculate Bakkt might have further delays than their new January target.



Given the volume of interest in Bakkt and work required to get all of the pieces in place, we will now be targeting January 24, 2019 for our launch to ensure that our participants are ready to trade on Day 1. As is often true with product launches, there are new processes, risks and mitigants to test and re-test, and in the case of crypto, a new asset class to which these resources are being applied. So it makes sense to adjust our timeline as we work with the industry toward launch.”

“Second, as we collaborate to help develop this asset class, we are taking opportunities in our start-up phase to expand our offering. We’ll share more about some of these new features in the coming weeks but as a start, I’m pleased to announce that we have insurance for bitcoin in cold storage and are in the process of securing insurance for the warm wallet within the Bakkt Warehouse architecture. We are focused on every aspect of delivering an institutional grade crypto warehouse solution and believe this is a significant step in building confidence in this asset class.

7483  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-11-19]Bitcoin Price will Drop Further to $1,500, Analysts Predict on: November 21, 2018, 01:45:06 AM
$1500! Apparently all the charts, TA and FA analysis don't seem to be working anymore. Bitcoin probably going down more than $1500.

When did it work for forum cave trolls like us who cannot trade and analyze the market good enough hehehe. However we can find peace to this by watching the experts making funny predictions that none of the forum cave trolls trust anymore.
7484  Economy / Speculation / Re: $2000 prospective low for bitcoin says Bitmex CEO Arthur Hayes on: November 21, 2018, 01:31:10 AM
This is not a prediction,it's a wish. Grin
I believe that Hayes wants really cheap bitcoins,most of the crypto whales want really cheap bitcoins,because the time for a big btc price pump is kinda over(no hype amongst the noobs,no enthusiasm),hence bigger profits from short positions and BTC futures trading.
 

Hehehe it might be. However $2000 is where bitcoin is going if the whales continue to dump. The person who certainly is wishing is Tom Lee and his $15,000 prediction. Wait for him to change and reduce it by another 40% again.

Also, staying in the original algorithm before the switch would have helped us attain more hashrate.

Did you believe that the 112Mh hash rate from the ASICS was well spread out on the Aeon network pre-rebase?



Moving forward, The State of AeonTM for 11_18_2018 https://medium.com/@AEON_Community/the-state-of-aeon-11-18-2018-548ed8a8abd2

Maybe not in the beginning, however it will be spread out among different mining pools in the interest of the security of the project. Why would miners attack Aeon and waste their resources?

In any case, what is the consensus of Aeon's leadership and voting system?
7486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC 229: Khabib vs McGregor Prediction and Info Thread on: November 20, 2018, 03:38:14 AM
Khabib's father is selling the idea that Conor should fight his son in boxing during an interview with a Russian media outlet. I reckon he might be trying to get what the fans' reaction would be before proposing it to be included in one of Dana's storyboards.

It might be something the fans would love. However, a rematch in the octagon has to be first and Conor has to win it.
7487  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-11-19]Bitcoin Price will Drop Further to $1,500, Analysts Predict on: November 20, 2018, 03:14:40 AM
@gentlemand. However, what is more conceivable in this market condition? The bagholders would answer $50,000, I reckon hehehe. The unprejudiced and fair answer would be $1500.

winter is coming , brace yourselves
looks like news starting to put even more pressure on the market
some groups want to push the price even further down to buy?
I won't be surprised if the price fell to 1.500$ or even 1000$ , but then I would buy like mad Smiley
hell I think I'd buy at 2000$ , there is no reason not to ,the market is being manipulated and the price will recover if not this year then 2019-2020
do not be fooled by the bs and HODL or buy

No, winter is here.
7488  Economy / Speculation / $2000 prospective low for bitcoin says Bitmex CEO Arthur Hayes on: November 20, 2018, 02:55:23 AM
I reckon when bitcoin was dumped to go under its floor of $10,000 during that time and then $5000, forum cave troll comments like this from Arthur Hayes would incline to become more believable than Tom Lee's $15,000 by the end of December.

I shake my head for 2019.



Arthur Hayes, the famed chief executive at Hong Kong-based BitMEX, unexpectedly predicted that Bitcoin (BTC) didn’t bottom at $5,800, even while the crypto market’s leading analysts begged to differ.

At the time, Hayes, a former Citibank and Deutsche Bank trader/analyst, claimed that “I think we’ve haven’t seen the worst yet,” before adding that BTC was likely to test $5,000 before truly bottoming. Now, after nearly a week of tumultuous price action, which began on Wednesday morning, BTC has fallen under $5,000 for the first time in 2018.

Hayes first told Yahoo Finance that Bitcoin’s bear market could continue well into 2019, citing his five-year experience trading Bitcoin and altcoins in this nascent market. Following up on this claim, just days later, the BitMEX executive doubled-down on his opinion that crypto’s next bull run is months, if not years away.

Then touching on volatility, Hayes explained that BTC “require volatility” to eventually reclaim its position as the mainstream media’s circus freak, adding that the price fluctuations of bitcoin are the “best and most transparent way” to express the health, performance, and maturation of this industry.

So, seeing that volatility has declined (save for the past week), Hayes noted that prices “will slowly leak lower” to a prospective low of $2,000, a “sweet spot” in the eyes of the BitMEX chief and his analyst team.

7491  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-11-17] Two Bitcoin Mining Companies Disappear From Sweden Owing $1.5M on: November 19, 2018, 01:55:40 AM
I'm surprised there hasn't been more of this really.

In the UK you get gangs renting houses, filling them with weed growing and then disappearing with their haul before the police and bills arrive. Perhaps we'll get more rogue miners milking electricity companies in the future.

'Free' electricity is a huge incentive.

I reckon setting up a scam bitcoin mining farm would not be worth the risk similar to those UK gangs renting houses and leaving. The operators have to apply for business permits, pass all the legal documents, set up the mining farm and look for a cheap electricity supplier overseas.

It is possible that they started legitimately.
7492  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How does the team prevent the price of the tokens from falling? on: November 19, 2018, 01:36:26 AM
@batuhantstknn. Most of those teams will not or cannot prevent it. As it happens, most of those teams cause their tokens to fall by selling a percentage of them in the market where the community is left to buy most of it and baghold them.

That sounds very bad but many ICOs did it.
7493  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [AEON] Aeon Speculation on: November 19, 2018, 01:23:45 AM
Not really a bottom for AEON. A month ago price was 7200 at now is 10%  more.   Same with Monero 14 August price was 0.0132 btc. 20% lower as today.   What is lowest  considering 2018 is value of Bitcoin.

Hehe agreed. But only because we know that there might be a certain whale who wants to dump some coins again.

I hope next time, the whale would be more patient and avoid selling on market price. Aeon does not have enough bids to cover his or her dumps in Bittrex.
7494  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2018-11-17] Two Bitcoin Mining Companies Disappear From Sweden Owing $1.5M on: November 18, 2018, 02:22:06 AM
@Thekool1s. It certainly is the bear market that are causing some miners to close down and run. I am not defending the them, however mining's breakeven price cost is higher than bitcoin's trading price and it might become either another cause of worry or FUD hehehe.

7495  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [AEON] Aeon Speculation on: November 18, 2018, 01:58:28 AM
@boomboombazookajeff. That is a very easy wager to make because every cryptocoin is presently beginning to settle on their own bottoms hehehe.

However, we might not be out of it yet. A certain someone might decide to continue dumping hehe.

7496  Economy / Speculation / Tom Lee lowered his prediction to $15k hehehe on: November 18, 2018, 01:41:43 AM
Is this as bearish as can Tom Lee go? $15k might also be too bullish hehehe.

@miners. What is the real breakeven price in mining costs compared to the trading price per bitcoin? I reckon the real war of the miners will occur in bitcoin and Bitmain might begin pushing smaller miners out.

In any case, I also predict that the trading price below mining breakeven price articles will be the new source of FUD.



Wall Street's best-known cryptocurrency bull just cut his bitcoin price target nearly in half.

Tom Lee, co-founder of Fundstrat Global Advisors, lowered his year-end target to $15,000 from $25,000 — still well above where the cryptocurrency was trading on Friday.

A key driver was bitcoin's "break-even" point, the level at which mining costs match the trading price. That level is down to $7,000 from an earlier estimate of $8,000 for the S9 mining machine by Bitmain, according to Fundstrat's data science team. Based on that, Lee estimates that fair value for bitcoin would be roughly 2.2 times the new $7,000 break-even price.

Bitcoin is trading well below that, near $5,539 on Friday, according to data from CoinDesk. This week, the majority of major cryptocurrencies saw double-digit downward swings, and bitcoin hit its lowest level of the year.

But Lee is betting on a recovery. He told clients in a note Friday that even in the depths of a previous bitcoin bear market between 2013 and 2015, it "never sustained a move below breakeven."

Agreed. However many of them were also scams. I use the word scam in this example, similar to the way the altcoin community uses it for ICOs hehehe. A project that has no chance to succeed because of unreachable promises made by a development team that did not have the skills.

I don't personally see the need to switch algo versions on Aeon right now. There is minimal hash rate as it is and the hash rate here is fairly spread out for the most part. I think if we start seeing 20-30mh we could start looking at a fork for algo version change if the hash is centralized and pools see asic style connections.



That was not the question. The question was do we keep copying what Monero does no matter what without having our own identity? Is Aeon the backup plan in case Monero fails?

Also, staying in the original algorithm before the switch would have helped us attain more hashrate.

Fundstrat. The same global company of financial advisors that has Tom Lee. The Tom Lee who predicted and expressed with all his heart that bitcoin will be on $20k - $25k by December. Now, again they are telling us what they predict hehehe.

I reckon a prediction market like Augur might be a more accurate tool than those analysts.
