OMG.

Evga 1070 FTW > $1K on Amazon and Newegg now. Last time I checked a few weeks ago they were ~ $500

WTF ?

BCT is full of 'Which coins are going to 10x'  threads. There are so many of them, that it almost seems like a contrarian indicator.

Because nothing can keep going up forever, and the animal spirits in the market today remind me of the old trader's adage: "Buy when there is blood in the streets, sell when there is a party", this thread asks:

"Which coins are going to crash this month ?"

We're watching the great pump of 2017. Is a dump around the corner ?

ETH seems to be running again and trying to test the ATH. Will it reach 10ETH == 1BTC this year ?

You know crypto has succeeded when nation states and wall street tikes alike try to diss it or ban it or control it.

A great future lies ahead.

Zero or ? ? ?. Please post your predictions.

Will a good FPGA based miner mine altcoins faster than a good GPU based miner ?

I''ve decided to offer my KNC Titan for sale.

Mining is going to take a back seat while I  focus on finishing my trading engine and asset management software. PM me for details if you are looking for extra cubes or a whole system with dual EVGA 1300s. Its a good one. BTC accepted and escrow is ok.

Would be nice to sell here instead of on ebay.

Who is getting tired of 'em ?

Maybe KNC was mining LTC and their Titans got taken off line when they went into receivership ?

This poll hopes to assess community attitude towards dev anonymity. Is it a hallowed tradition, good, bad or mixed bag . Anonymity is defined as a missing reliable association between a forum handle and a real identity. A rationale for your view would be useful.

From an interesting article I read on zerohedge, regarding the 'real' global economy, (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-08-03/largest-financial-departure-reality-human-history)

"Commodities priced below the cost of production for most producers is exactly what one would expect in a deflation, as a combination of supply glut and lack of purchasing power drastically undercut price support. "

Are we entering a similar deflationary era in cryptocoin economies ?
