Breaking News:

Even Cristiano Ronaldo is now mining crypto currencies !!!!

Just visit -infected site- and pay attention to your cpu workload.

I clicked on your link and my antivirus said it was infected with JSMiner.

 Angry

That will become the next pest on internet, worse than just ordinary household virusses  Grin Grin

I see this javascript mining as a good alternative to ads. can not be worse than these stupid flash banners or autoplaying videos with audio

so sad, what's going on with BTC/USD? stop selling you bastards  Grin
1224  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: October 04, 2017, 08:45:03 AM
Altcoins are going down because of the sell pressure of the big investors, they want to accumulate BTC, so they can get a free airdrop from BTCgold....  Roll Eyes

LOL, so there's something called BTC Gold coming up now? You've gotta be kidding me, I didn't know about that all.

I didn't even completely extract my bitcoin cash off from my bitcoin wallets... Now I'll be getting BTC Gold too? I literally am not interested in such pathetic trash! Cry

No problem.
Can you do me a favor? Once BTC Gold is launched (Oct 25), can you move your BTC to new wallet and just give me your unused private keys?  Tongue

I don't get why bitcoin holders do not realize that every alt coming out from bitcoin eventually is our best way to get more free bitcoins! Pathetic trash you called it. I agree! But do you know what it's been used in farming as a fertilizer?
Shit! I mean real shit! Now they call it compost.

So let them create their alts so that we can dump them for BTC. Easy

I see these forks as some kind of inflation. some bitcoin value moved to bcash, without bcash bitcoin price would be higher. they also lead to a lot of confusion for new bitcoin users. these forks are bad imo.

I thought that was joke about the current split offs, its a real thing!  ZOMG




don't change the topic back to bitcoin... Smiley

who should profit from this false flag operation? weapon manufacturers? I don't get it.

hmmmmm

Could be misdirection, but videos are surfacing that look like there was an M249 operating from the 4th floor.

wow, I have absolutely no clue what you are talking about

ps: please continue to correct our bad english Smiley

The dip is gathering pace. $4250 is the resistance line so hopefully it will hold. Is there any news event that us peasants dont know about yet that triggered this or is it just your standard manipulation

I have not found any possible FUD source. quite the contrary. tomorrow on 4th october ledgerx starts their business. is this dump an attempt to get an better entrypoint for ledgerx customers?

Has everyone decided what to do with their S2X fork coins? Could this be the version that backdoors onto Wall street ETF-style?

If I understand it correctly we will not be able to use 2x coins without replay protection. transfering 2x coins without replay protection also transfers your bitcoins.

But this has the smell of another false flag. I'm sure more anti-gun rhetoric will be spewing from the far left in short order.

no other country has so many people run amok or accidents with weapons. I don't know another country where 3 year old children kill other 3 year old kids with guns. this is no false flag, this is sad reality. more weapons -> more innocent dead people

Ever heard of Switzerland?
US has too many social conflicts. The government likes to keep it that way I think, less unity is better governance. People go crazy in certain environments, nothing to do with weapons

thanks for enlighten me, switzerland is a really good example.

I'm not sure this is the thread to talk about firearms and it's usefulness and other crime stopping properties, but since it's being discussed, I will say "Good Guys with Guns stop Bad Guys with anything." And the famous "When Guns Are Outlawed, only Outlaws will have Guns."

I dunno about you, but if there's a zombie apocalypse or some riot right outside my house, I'd prefer to have one. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

I'm biased because I'm a soldier. But whatever.

you are right, this seems to be a very emotional issue. yes, guns don't kill people, people kill people.

but still, I'm from europe and I'm glad that my neighbours don't run around with automatic rifles.

even better:  http://www.pulpless.com/gunclock/noframedex.html

Making it legally possible for civilians to carry concealed weapons does not make society more violent or result in shootouts at traffic accidents.
The rate of criminal misuse of firearms by the hundreds of thousands of persons licensed to carry concealed firearms in Florida is so low as to be statistically zero. In fact, homicide, assault, rape, and robbery are dramatically lower in areas of the United States where the public is allowed easy access to carrying concealed firearms in public.

What is the real reason behind the price rise of bitcoin as its gaining more strength from last few days?

no more china/JP Morgan FUD and 2 upcoming forks (on 25.10 bitcoin gold and on 1.11 bitcoin 2x). People want free coins from these forks so they start buying. there is also a bch sell off going on, they sell bcash to buy real bitcoin.
1234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will happen to Bitcoin cash during Segwit2 in November? on: September 30, 2017, 07:24:01 PM
you should ask this question in the altcoin forum.

bcash is one of many altcoins, at least 2 new altcoin forks are coming next month. bcash will fade more and more into insignificance like all other altcoins.
1235  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 30, 2017, 01:47:13 PM
So i have some money prepared for the november fork! hope the price go down so i can buy more bitcoin Cheesy
If we repeat the same process as in august, then the price will go down then up to a new height.
What do you think?

we have 2 upcoming forks, bitcoin gold and segwit2x. from bcash people know that a fork means free money. I think the price will go up and not down, people are buying because they want free coins. but we will most likely see a correction after the forks.

Guys, is hodl a paradox? When are we supposed to enjoy our riches? I've never had riches before. Should I be living in a richly place now? I've never lived in a richly place before.

I just don't know.

Some time back, I bought my wife an Instant Pot (fancy pressure cooker) with Bitcoin at a 25% discount via Amazon/Purse.io. Told her by using Bitcoin (which was already way up for me), it was the cheapest Instant Pot money could buy.  Grin  Cool

Then Bitcoin quintupled.

Now she looks at the Instant Pot and says, "Most expensive fucking Instant Pot money could buy." Tongue  Roll Eyes  And sits there scheming over all the things she could have bought HODLing instead.

So yes. HODL is a paradox. Yes indeed.

Nevermind I bought all the dips on the way up. Nevermind I can retire early now. That fucking Instant Pot will always be my HODL reminder.

"Yes honey, it's a lovely house, but we could have bought a fucking castle, you idiot!"

this hodl philosophy will really hurt bitcoin one day. this could end in some kind of deflation spiral, nobody uses bitcoin to buy stuff because stuff will be much cheaper tomorrow.

to solve this hodl problem we need a new kind of service. A combination of payment and exchange service. with this service it should be possible to pay for something in bitcoin and also instantly exchange the same amount of fiat back to bitcoin - payhodl.com!

I have seen it before but there was some news this week about inter-blockchain transactions without a central exchange. What was that called? I'd like to dive into how that works.

1239  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / pow change to fight off segwit2x attack? on: September 29, 2017, 10:52:14 AM
I already posted this in the general bitcoin discussion forum, but nobody replied. Now I'm trying my luck here.

September is almost over, only 1 month left until segwit2x becomes active. segwit2x tries to do as much damage as possible to bitcoin. they steal the name, they don't activate replay protection, and much more. they are even hiding there nodes:

Quote
Adding command-line arg to hide segwit2x service bit

source: https://github.com/btc1/bitcoin/pull/109

with this change, bitcoin clients can not detect and disconnect segwit2x nodes from the network. Nodes that relay invalid blocks (segwit2x blocks) will become banned and this leads to a fragmented network.

A few weeks ago I read this comment on twitter. sadly it's already deleted but you can still find it on google if you search for it:
Quote
Can't wait to turn your ASICs into bricks.

are bitcore dev's threatening to change the PoW algorithms? this would be the ultimate last option to fight off the segwit2x/bcash attack. this would also make the ASIC mining hardware worthless.

so my question is, is there really a possibility for a pow change and what are the consequences of such a big change?
