Not quite a unicorn..but with 3 forks looming ...about as close as Bitcoin is gonna get...so I call it...... 'look an ugly unicorn' (whatever gets me thru the day of wtf is going on with Bitcoin development)  'tis a black swan  nothing much is happening though in bitcoin, so not to worry meh just the Chinese, Russian and USG's all attacking it through their incompetent proxies. same old story never worked before, just exposes a few more such proxies and shills each time (Garzik, Demirrors...) and causes the female and young to worry about things and matters so hodl till the cows come home and meanwhile post Selmalikes  |

Well fellas, get ready for some fun in the next two weeks. Tomorrow is a solar eclipse. It's also the day that President Trump announces that we're back into the war game in Afghanistan. A build up of troops and more airstrikes likely. This has secretly been in the planning for months and months by the Deep State. But make no mistake, this is really the precursor to war in the Asia Pacific. Can't have all that pesky surplus oil just sitting around stockpiled in tankers everywhere... gotta burn it somehow. "When all else fails [to stimulate the economy], you take 'em to war."Gold market is showing signs of shorts exiting positions. U.S. Stock market is overheated and showing signs of exhaustion. U.S. govt about to hit the debt ceiling.... again. Hedge Funds moving into bitcoin through LedgerX come on line in Sept. Things are heating up fast. Anything can happen in the coming months. Hold HODL on to your butts bitcoin!  add: us warships keep 'crashing into' freighters uk trains keep falling off tracks isis nearly landless pikeys vs inbreeds http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-40990174 might just be the  event to tip things over the edge |

Any ideas how to best prepare for the next fork (which will probably be our own)?
Pls don't say Litecoin.

Isn't Segwit already priced in?
BCH sliding way lower would be better news for BTC price...
http://fork.lol/pow/retargetso much hash on bch now, their diff will go up again in 3.5 days... |

They didn't think much to the Ocean
The waves, they were fiddlin' and small
There was no wrecks and nobody drownded
Fact, nothing to laugh at, at all.

the majority of those addresses are pre fork. i'd like to see ones that were only created after it. it's q useful for seeing that the biggest btc wallets have hardly started shedding their bcc yet... |

Eeww someone said 'mainstream adoption'.
could you not swear quite so disgustingly, please, i feel sick now and haven't even had any breakfast

Thanks for the free money drop, Ver and Wu! Veeeeery nice.
Yeah and it's nice to mine a shitcoin once in a while. ppc, dgb-sha, dem, bcc all convert quite nicely to hard currency. Anyone remember mining paycoin back in the day? How long did Garza get in jail? |

http://bitcoinfibre.org/FIBRE is designed to be easy to operate for anyone already running a network of Bitcoin Core instances http://bitcoinrelaynetwork.org/Some details: * The relay nodes do some data verification to prevent DoS, but in order to keep relay fast, they do not fully verify the data they are relaying, thus YOU SHOULD NEVER mine a block building on top of a relayed block without fully checking it with your own bitcoin validator (as you would any other block relayed from the P2P network). The relay nodes are NOT a replacement for having peers on the standard P2P network, nor should you rely on it as your only fast block relay method.

lies [misattribution by Last of the V8s - ed]
lies? Exactly one of us in this discussion is modifying quotes to misrepresent what the other has said. And it ain't me. So perhaps you'd like to elucidate at least one specific statement of mine that you believe is a lie? For reference: So what? So I am just pointing out that use of this completely countermands the entire 'lots of non-mining, fully-validating nodes are useful to the network as a whole' narrative.
I didn't say anything about BCash - neither about Bitcoin Cash, which is what I assume you meant (BCash is an entirely different project based upon zk-snarks).
I have no complaint about Blockstream broadcasting their blockchain via satellite. More power to them. I'm sure some will find it useful.
And I have no unease regarding the trends in regards to the competition of Bitcoin Segwit vs Bitcoin Cash.
Methinks you are lashing out because Bitcoin Cash has not yet cratered, and this prospect is starting to worry you. But that's just armchair analysis by one not specifically trained in psychology. i don't like quoting your lies. the bolded part. while your uncommon use of 'countermand' muddies the waters somewhat, the whole of your statement is purposefully dishonest. idc about altcoins. No lies here. The Blockstream Satellite project is supposed to broadcast the One True Chain, correct? The Blockstream Satellite project sources this One True Chain from the relay network, correct? The relay network is a high speed backchannel whose primary purpose is to tie all miners together directly in a low latency network free of hops through non-mining nodes, correct? You really can't connect these dots? Although it's great fun and some pr, as it stands I'm not terribly interested in the thing because
45cm Ku Band Satellite Dish (antenna)
PLL LNB (linear polarization) w/ < = 200kHz LO stability
LNB Power Supply
LNB Mounting Bracket
Software Defined Radio interface
Cables, Connectors, and Mounting Hardware
1. Minimum 45cm Satellite Dish (bigger is better)
has to be down only, there is no uplink gear in that BOM thanks so we have to trust the chain they beam down? my node can't reject rule-breaking blocks? jbreher would love this non-starter |

there's a theory that we won't be safe till we're using 51% of the world's energy supply to secure the chain, but let's not tell the lamestream yet
