By the way, hasn't Roach got his account back yet?

In times such as this, we could all enjoy some explanation on the power of precious metals - and especially silver. I'm sure the correction we're seeing was orchestrated by the Joos.

 

/s - In case there's anyone with their sarcastometers in need of servicing.

Uh. Some of the things you say are news to me. I don't mean I don't believe you. But... but surely if I own a certain percentage of the stock... surely I mean...  I do get my say, right? Eh...? Right??  (breaking into tears)... And I thought... MOMMYYYYYY!!! Bwaaa, waahh!!! 

My thoughts exactly. So, where are the ones that are not? To my naive mind, ICOs look like a way to rake money without getting one's company ownership swayed as it would be with VC. I'm glad they're being regulated. Want capital? Gimme stocks, so I own (at least part of) what I paid you, so I can vote if I paid enough. You give me these sumthincoins and if (when) value goes to zero, we're good? Meaning YOU're good and I'm out of luck? No way.

The market was being too slow for the taste of those in power. And for once I agree!

Most of these ICO spewing companies don't even need to use blockchain technology for their operation. It's just a way around the SEC or other similar institutions.

Sorry for the rant, nothing personal really. It's just that this thing with premined shitcoins really grinds my gears.

Buying dips as well. It feels like some bearwhale playing dumpy dumpy on low liquidity. Shaking the tree while banks are closed for the long weekend.

Jimbo must be tired of walking back and forth by now...

I do remember that. Crypto was treated as a weapon, so code couldn't be exported. But books could, so there were chapters full of code printed in OCR-friendly fonts.

It's hard to ban ideas.

As time goes on, I think there will be fewer and fewer weak hands and more hardcore hodlers. It will get harder and harder to shake the tree for falling fruit.

No way. I'm betting he's soon going to post about buying at a good price with extra-good commission! 

It isn't, actually. It's still in the 0.120-0.135 BTC range, as yesterday and the day before.

I like your girlfriend. Not booby enough for next ATH, though. Pity.
On second thought, is full nudity OK in this thread?

Is BCH really going up? In real terms (I mean, price relative to BTC), it looks more like sideways to me.

Difficult time to sleep with all the new ATHs indeed, and the newborn won't help a bit in that department. On the other hand, some positive thinking is in order. You will be able to check the price more often when it's your turn to wake up at night.

Congrats indeed, daddy!   

Inadvertently?

Thanks for the tip! Just staked it.

If this is the way things are, I reckon Wu & co. will burn themselves more than they did with the BCH thing.
Just for starters, exchanges don't want to deal with chains without replay protection.

I also didn't manage to sell my BCH at a price that would make me feel good, so I'm justifying myself with a half-assed hedge argument similar to this. Conspirosphere.tk, I totally agree with your point 1). Not so much with point 2), because as altcoins go, technical soundness isn't really that relevant. It's more of a hype and deep pocket whale business IMHO. So BCH might be as good as the next alt, given the support team it has.

Besides, the half-assed hedge argument has partial merit IMO: if/when BCH mining profitably keeps dropping as it is, in order to keep the altcoin from reaching quick irrelevance, there must be pumping. So the "hedge" side of the argument can be turned into "retribution" for the schemers. I wager many long time hodlers, who at the moment can't be bothered to split/move/sell their BCH, will get their asses on the move if BCH price gets interesting enough. I for one will. I've already made a couple BTC on some BCH, and I've got sell orders for another part of my stash set up at 0.5 BTC/BCH.

That's 2025! They already added 6 decimal places (20 bits actually) with the GUF (great utility fork) in 2020, after the bitcoin price surged past 150k USD - roughly equivalent to 120k 2017 USD.

Grrr. You quick lucky SOB. 
I'm still hoping for some pumping action later this year though ;-) 

Maybe someone stopped mining empty blocks?

I still have most of my BCH. I had halfheartedly decided to sell, but then the price started to go too far down for my taste. So I only sold a little, waiting for better times. I could call it a hedge or a speculative bet. There's going to be a fork in November, and a BCH halving a fortnight after that (ok, I'm exaggerating). So who knows - maybe Jihan and Ver will repump the old shitcoin. I'll be ready.
