Bitcoin: I see we're approaching the median of the uptrend channel again, still can't post images because of newbie reset restrictions.
Have one for the informative post. Every bit helps  |

I don't get why people still follow someone like masterluc who is not willing to post his analysis here for constructive criticism. The shine has worn off that particular penny IMO. That being said I expect any correction to stop at the weekly 20 MA. Let's see who is correct. Do I get a hat if I win?
I for one often report about masterluc here. He was the first analyst to impress me with his long term prediction. I agree he's lost his edge, but I also think there's little damage to hear his more recent short term calls - even if they're off more often than not. And I think you could get a hat even without winning, if you want it. |

I was reminded

Yes, it is Sunday

so here's my 2 cents

Lots of 502's/504's landing on CloudFlare page. Physiological pump reaction or half-assed DDoS?
EDIT Seems I'm not the first to notice.

WOOT GO BTC!!!!!! Fuck, I am too drunk to determine who won. At first instance it looks like it was eddie13. Is that right? P.S.: On other news... WE ALL WON  I believe so. I'm 8 seconds slower. Congratz eddie13
If, after sobriety has been reclaimed, and/or rigorous examination of the photo finish determines me the winner, the address in my profile is good  -redacted-https://youtu.be/qR7U1HIhxfA <needs a BTC remix.. I suggest addresses be communicated via PM. It makes it all too easy to link user to address (receiver and sender). |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTwEFa5NW2k Peterson Family Update - February 2020 His daughter updates us on his state of health. Why she doesn't need a shirt to do so is perhaps a question for another time. Especially as this may be pretty raw and relevant for one of our popular temporarily absent bros. Benzos in North America are abused to criminal extents. I hope the temporarily absent bro comes back in due time to moonparty. |

For anyone looking to really smoke some Hopium, here goes.
What if the Chinese Communist Party ends up losing power from the Coronavirus and transitions to a Democracy in the next few years. What would that mean for Bitcoin.
Ill tell you what it means. We will get full legalization of Bitcoin as a currency in China, a return of Chinese Bitcoin exchanges, a Chinese Bitcoin ETF, and much more.
Percent probability of China suddenly going democratic? Ultra ultra low? In the ballpark of 1.034% (extra digits are for JJG) |

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/more-400-million-people-lockdown-guangzhou-joins-quarantine"Guangzhou, the capital of China's southwestern Guangdong Province and the country's fifth largest city with nearly 15 million residents, has just joined the ranks of cities imposing a mandatory lockdown on all citizens, effectively trapping residents inside their homes, with only limited permission to venture into the outside world to buy essential supplies. That's more than 400 million people forcibly locked inside their homes for 638 deaths? Just think about that: If there was ever a reason to believe that Beijing is lying about the numbers (and not just because Tencent accidentally leaked the real data), this is it." I am giving this a 10% chance of bringing down the Chinese government. I suspect the government could just kill half of them, burn the bodies and bury the ashes in some desert pit - and still not stumble. |

Since when do you need to login to browse reddit? They for a while have been aggressively pushing for using the app, but could still be ignored. Desperate to track and profile its users it seems. Bye Reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinNo login required here. Old style computer and browser. Maybe it's a mobile thing only? EDIT @Phil_S I like old.reddit.com better anyway Neither old or new require me to login atm. |

Total restructuring and regulation will occur when bitcoin is integrated into existing traditional ATMs installed in or owned by banks. Even privately owned (by individuals) ATMs are a form of centralization. The more governments and other corporations try to regulate them, the more people will turn to other more decentralized options like person-to-person transactions behind closed doors. True decentralization consists of unofficial community of individuals worldwide. As in, pre-KYC/AML localbitcoins. Over Tor, with feedback ratings. |

While catching up, I got a glimpse of more shitcoin shilling. Here I'm back on it straightening out big blockers so that noobs are warned Craig Wright's lack of principles and honesty is objectively indefensible. This has been proven in a court of law. He has lied under oath; it is not unreasonable to conclude he lives a tissue of lies.
When any man is obviously of sound mind and intelligent, but still disregards the obvious and will not condemn this plainly malignant, transparent liar, one can only conclude he is either; as corrupt as the man he defends, too egotistical, or too weak and foolish to look in the mirror and admit that he might be wrong.
And again, you conflate my support of BSV with support of CSW. Just no. Kurious might be conflating all right, but BSV is mined at the bid of a conflated jerk - be it CSW or CA. This could defy decentralization a bit in practice. That's the difference between the protocol as deployed in real life as opposed to the protocol in an ideal world. At any rate, the sense talked by uncle D dosn't conflate anyone now does it. I'm sure I've said it before, but I'll say it again.
There's nothing wrong with saying aspects of BlockstreamBorgLizardAxaCoreSegShitcoin go against what you initially signed up for and believe in.
What I am amazed at is how few who believe that are capable of stating that the alternative projects that shout this the loudest are clearly pieces of shit that drown many of the principles that it does still work hard to respect in a fountain of shitty shit.
Why is it so painful to acknowledge?
Please stop it, jbreher. The noobs do get confused. Bandwidth and storage jerks don't taint the protocol high requirements do #haiku(EDIT Congrats @ivomm! One more hero joins our ranks.) |

Here's the picnic bear at it again. TL;DR jbreher argues big blocks with byzantine precision and aggressively low intellectual honesty. Beware: he's good at it. Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain! He's only the chief scientist of the protocol and self proclaimed creator, a patent troll who copyrighted the whitepaper and trying to build a patent forest around the tech, other than that BSv is as decentralized as bitcoin. Keep trying to preach new n00bs in. Even in his best case scenario miners will just go behind tor, then who he's going to sue? But go ahead go fight the internet that always turns out well  Correct. BSV is just as decentralized as BTC. Craig's escapades notwithstanding. As they are irrelevant from the standpoint of the protocol and the chain. Craig's escapades are indeed irrelevant to the protocol. Which, in a world of infinite straight lines and dimensionless points, has just as much centralization as BTC. However, in a world where there's a positive lower bound to the cost of resources, keeping verification costs near that lower bound conflicts with the number of lanes in the highway, so to say. Small vs big blocks becomes a matter of politics, or better said religion. |

LN can and will help with fungibility. One aspect of the Lightning Network that few commenters mention.

The comments, only partially visible on the archive site, were a mixed bag of btc haters, moonboys (few), and informed people posting useful corrections. As I mentioned, NotLambChop couldn't refrain from putting a couple words in either.
EDIT When I first posted the link, the article was already archived. V8 top scout as usual.

That above linked article is behind some kind of paywall (registration wall). Me, not gonna do it.  For some reason, I didn't get any wall. And no, I'm not registered. The article itself is just a piece of classic Wall St against crypto mentality. I'll try to paste it here later. |
