By the way jbreher, recently I had mentioned you as a guy who seemed to be having difficulties with unit bias, so hopefully you have recently gotten over gifting bitcoin in 1 coin increments.  
I stopped gifting in 1 BTC increments when the $USD value of 1 BTC exceeded the IRS nontaxable gift maximums.
What a legend  Cool
Nah - just a person with patience and a vision...
Your vision (or would it be visions?) with bcash and bsv (ie bcash sv) did not go very well.
Your kidding, right? You gotta be.
Current market price notwithstanding, name a more _capable_ blockchain than BSV.

I can wait....

You may well be waiting for a long time at that picnic table like a skeleton of your former lil bear selfie.

Of course, I am not kidding.. Why should anyone, including yours truly, even need to go down this path with your ongoing, persistent and irrational stubborn lil selfie.

It seems that through all of these years, you still have not figured out by now that the value in bitcoin is not merely about a few features here and there.

If any shitcoin wants to beat the incumbent (namely dee cornz), they need to be clearly and unambiguously in the ballpark of 10x better that the cornz, other wise the incumbent is going to hang onto its position.

Have you heard of bitcoin?

Bitcoin is more than 10x better than the dollar and gold.. and that is why it is going to continue to beat the shit out of both of them and continue to take market share from both of them (including other places where monetary value is stored and/or even transacted).  There is no shitcoin that is even close to bitcoin in terms of sound money qualities, including but not limited to your supposed lovely little project with the scammer manipulators,  i.e. bcash sv.. ..

Yeah, sure there are going to be all kinds of ways to transact value, including bitcoin, but bitcoin does not completely get its value merely for its ability to be transacted without difficulties, it gets its value from other sound money attributes that include but not limited to its scarcity, verifiability, portability, divisibility, etc.

It's sad that you have not learned your lesson and/or learned what bitcoin is over the past many years, even though you are a technical guy and you do not seem to be dumb, but for some reason you still seem to think some arguable technical superiorities (even if such technical superiorities were true) would be enough to steal away bitcoin's network effects (in the spirit of those outlined by Trace Mayer).   

And, of course bitcoin has an ability to be spent directly, yet Gresham law principles are going to continue to incentivize folks to spend their inferior monies before spending their bitcoin, so the mere fact that other coins are being transacted upon does not give them value - especially if no one is really wanting to hold them, besides nutjob speculators who might not even understand the thing that they are holding does not have as much value as they consider it to have.

By the way, we have had these kinds of discussions in the past, and if you are going to persuade any of us to want to consider any shitcoin (including Bcash sv, aka BSV) as some kind of better product, you have to persuade factually (meaning that you have the burden of production of evidence) and you have to persuade logically (burden of persuasion that the various logical pieces fit together to support your conclusion, ie that BSV, shitcoin, is superior to bitcoin)..

You want to suggest that I (or any other person supporting bitcoin) has any such burdens?  Bullshit.. You almost deserve batslap for that nonsense - if some of us did not miss you so much, you are going to quickly go back to your previous argumentative self..  about about a dumbass scam shitcoin?  You go... you have the burden, so no need to wait for me to try to produce evidence or logic to dispute your baloney assertions... even if you are likely technically smarter than me (and many guys here) you are seemingly otherwise retarded about what brings value to bitcoin (sorry to come out with hardball assertions in regards to what you seem to be wanting to suggest that you were not wrong about that shitcoin, BSV).

Yeah, go fuck your wall-o-text, JJG. If you did not want to discuss BSV, then why the fuck did you bring it up?

Please just don't.
Not again.
Maybe make a new thread, if such not already exists?

HEY!!! I'm not the one who brought it up - RIGHT?

Samson Mow talks about an "omega candle".  I think hes probably onto something.  We will see...

Some guy (who speaks a bit like the "mad hatter" from "Alice in wonderland") proudly predicts MSTR bankruptcy scenario in 2026.

I dunno. I don't see any mathematical possibility for MSTR to go bankrupt. Saylor seems to have engineered it well.

OTOH, I'm not convinced that everyone that has bought their stock will be above water in perpetuity.

YMMV. DYOR.

Every move up is preceded by a few ants dumping. This smells like intimidation. Let us not be scared.

The royal "us"?

The WO us.

Synonymous?

We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair

And we'll never be royals (Royals)

so, basically we will be able to gift whole cornz again later this year?

buy the dip lol?

Personally, I don't think we've come close the the face melting blowoff top this cycle. Though I do envision it ending in a huge crash - to .... umm ... maybe $200K?

Not to glorify trading, but there are likely ways to learn too, as long as we do not get too greedy, and personally I could not justify more than 10% of my BTC holdings being employed in such direction, yet there are likely some guys (based on their skill set) who might be able to reasonably justify 30% or more of the size of their BTC holdings getting deployed in such trading/hedging plays.

Nice to see an ole curmudgeon still alive and kicking.  Wink

Are you saying that you agree or no?

I'm saying thinking you're superskilledtrader (that's the rhetorical 'you', not accusatorially being the JJG you) and risking 30% on any single trade is more likely than not gonna backfire. Maybe not the first time, but certainly at some point. And likely kill you in the end.

OTOH, I'm still selling the rip and buying the dip. Like clockwork.

I stumbled upon this beauty:

Hodlers: an apology

"Still right, still poor"

Alphaville wrote an apology to everyone who didn't buy Bitcoin reading the column.

Great, satisfying read!
 

Nice find.

FTAV: Still right clueless. Still poor.

edit: FTAV: Still right clueless laboring inaccurately yet haughtily under disproven axioms. Still poor.

It will be extremely difficult not to sell too early if this happens. I’m still expecting the peak to be in October, so if we are so high so early it will be hard to not start selling. The more and more I see how much buying is on the way, the more I think we could be looking at $500K next year. That will be hard to hold up to.

Yet another virtue of the laddered standing order strategy. It imposes its own discipline.

Funny how Global Warming Climate Change deals always involves huge sums of money for someone.

Almost as if the whole notion is just a a shitcoin type of scam, almost eh?

"How dare you, BitcoinBunny!"



checks many important aspects of a scamming someone:


- inducing stress by fear mongering

- time pressure

- astroturfing (Greta movement etc)

- critics are labeled as bad or crazy people (holocaust climate change denier, right wingers)

- global elite was pushing that shit from day one (politicians, Hollywood stars,..)

- "give me money!  

- "It's your fault!"

- "People will die"


and much more



not for nothing i see and have experienced the human growth go from 2.7 billion to 8.1 billion.

So when I was 10 for every person I saw there are now 3.

This issue is real.  And 100% fixable with two solutions blowjobs and muffs jobs for the next five years.

Zero birth rate world wide. Yet it gets zero talk zero media. And I am one of the few people that ever writes about it.

I simply dont get why it has zero traction basically anywhere at all.


Btw colonize mars and develop the warp drive is the other solution.


"global fertility rate stands at 2.25 live births per woman".
https://population.un.org/wpp/Publications/Files/WPP2024_Summary_of_Results.pdf

Population growth has almost come to a halt. (2.0 means zero growth, everything under that means humans are vanishing)

The problem you describe is a nothingburger.


And even if there were growth we would figure out solutions for any problem via access to education. Education will soon be accessible and free for anyone because of the world wide digitalization (internet, AI etc). But again, there is no significant growth anymore.




I will likely be dead, but until we are are 1.95 and shrinking or until we go off planet . I am correct and you are wrong.

Math is very simple we are still growing not shrinking or expanding out space.

If we start to shrink population or we expand our space you then become correct ☑️ .

Don’t argue or gaslight its pretty simple math.



Now you could say you think we have enough room and resources to support 10 billion. Well we are getting closer to 10 billion not further.

If you consider the earht to be what it is a bis ass terrarium it has  a balance to maintain.

Ie only x amount of humans and it then fails.

so far I still see us gaining on x.

so do you.
We don’t know what x is I sure as fuck don't
 I do not think you know what x is.



so do you what to play what happens when do we hit x?

I don’t.

I am certain the world words with under 8.1 billion

I watch it work from 2.7 to 8.1 billion

I would prefer to back off 8.1 billion not search for the max number and then crash and burn 🔥


Malthusians. Wrong, year after year. Since... well... long before the birth of Malthus.

Sorry, Phillipma. Just calling it like I see it.

... the one who got worms in his brain and because of that killed a bear and left it in Central Park NY next to an old bicycle thinking that people would think that the bear was really killed by some crazy cyclist...

Maybe the bear was the crazy cyclist trying to make his escape.



Isn't there a zoo in Central Park?

It is too easy to get bogged down in the poor skills with which the bear is engaging in bicycling, without stopping to wonder in the fact that the bear is bicycling at all.

You forgot the part where he willingly tried to hire a hitman (who was an undercover agent) to kill someone.

Never entered into evidence.

It was entered into evidence, the charge was dropped in 2018.


OK, Entered into evidence, then dismissed WITH PREJUDICE. Wonder why a prosecutor would engage in such a tactic?

Whatevs.

Do you have a reasonable hypothesis on what the backstage to this show might have been?
Or a sensible guess?
Or a crazy, tinfoil hat one?

My only take (I've not studied the issue in depth) is somewhere between sensible guess and tinfoil hat: to wit - likely entrapment.
