So... Time to mine a block is spiking again...
Did core or anybody come with a solution or this time we are iced for good? Anybody knows? Huh

Solution for what?


My understanding is that they reduced the difficulty again forking today on BCH and probably they will keep doing it...
So profitability for BTC will remain down indefinitely, leading us back to >24h for a transaction - but this time we have no real hope for the situation to improve

or did I miss something?

Good article from ZH about BCH de-escalation  Grin
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-11-13/bitcoin-soars-erases-weekend-losses-cash-gets-cut-half

Glad the article also mentions Vitalik - would never bet on a coin where the main dev says thank you after being overtaken, this is not the olympics...

Yes I am serious. Did you read the paper? Are your reading skills that abysmal? The CEO appellation was clearly tongue-in-cheek! Jeebus Cripes! From the first page thereof: The Bitcoin Cash organization has no titles other than those which we make up for fun in the spur of the moment, or to make fun of the organizations of the old world that care for titles

I did. That is a hell of a lot of pages and newspeak (from a politician) to be tongue-in-cheek!
I think you are taking a huge leap of faith when you think that BCH has no structure internally and they are just joking given what is written in that doc. Please put the puzzle together, we have a politician here with connections to the EU that wants to be involved (tongue-in-cheek CEO) in a project to take over BTC. Does that not raise some red flags to you? If the project has not enough red flags, they talk about 'teams' of developers, yet the contributors are a handful.
Now, you want to 'fire' the core devs, fine. But if you want to do so, why the hell would you want to fork a code written by the core team?!?!?!
You will tell me this is not yet a red flag, so here is another...
Setgwit2x is not a solution. BCH is not scalable. Let's assume BCH becomes the world currency, S2X is just a bit more scalable than BTC, BCH will die and the team of engineers (mostly nicknames), have hardly proven themselves.
I can go on forever, but seems listening to guys before that this is useless, so I leave it there...

EDIT: I got scammed once, and since then I've learnt my lesson and start doing some serious investigation before throwing money around

He made a new post that even with google translate I can't understand.
Seems like he is not using very kind words for the BCH guys
206  Economy / Speculation / Re: Analysis on: November 13, 2017, 01:21:47 AM
New masterluc update. It is very unclear.

Quote from: Google Translate
Oh, wei! Bitcoin Kaput. Save who can!

Those who do not know that bitcoin in the future have the 2nd level of the financial model OSI and the entire world financial system are screaming, and in BCH in the future there can be only one more fork on the next increase in the block size.

From a technical point of view, opening the schedule of the previous post, we look at the second bottom of the trend line, we see that it is not broken and we go on to sleep.

https://vk.com/bitcoin_vanga?w=wall-130254204_3631




OSI layer is the communication theory behind TCP/IP (or internet). I think what he implies that the lightning network will set the base for the next financial system, while BCH can only look forward to the next fork with a bigger block size.
The second sentence is quite clear so... Completely agree!

Thanks for sharing Gab0

How Many btc could they stil have to dump  Huh  Huh

Only the first 10,000 of the 160,000 stuck transactions went through.  There are many people who've been trying to sell BTC for over 1 day now, but have had their coins stuck in mempool:

As the remaining 150,000 stuck transactions get processed, we could see continued dumping.  

I think we'll see BTC fall to a low between $3,000 to $4,500 over the next few weeks, before the BCH FOMO wears off for this wave and we get a significant rebound.


How do you know they are sell orders? I tried to buy and failed (or at least, haven't seen any yet)

The set of Bitcoin Cash miners is pretty much identical to the set of Bitcoin Segwit miners.

Though I see you have not yet provided any sort of response to my post. To wit:

Perhaps if you could make a cogent case showing how Bitcoin Segwit is in any way more decentralized than Bitcoin Cash, you might have a point. But so far, all I've seen from you or others is mere hand waving.
You serious bro?
How about a letter from the CEO (how decentralized). They carefully removed it from the website, but google cache is still helpful

Don't bother ragnar0k. JBreher will just hand-wave those ramblings of their CEO madman away as unimportant and ignore you.

Tho I agree with one of their BCH principles, they are obviously sticking to it:

EToro just added BCH to the coins available, if nothing its gaining visibility. I wonder how many other surprises they have

Bought some 150$ worth of BTC 6 hours ago from coinbase and still waiting for them to reach my wallet.
Not sure if BTC completely dead or CB not helping

It is a good idea to check the bitcoin memory pool before sending to see if there is a transaction backlog. If there are more than 50K transactions waiting to be confirmed consider waiting. The memory pool should clear later today when Bitcoin Cash difficulty increases by 400% and miners switch back to mining Bitcoin.

And hopefully the fuck*r crashes forever, as I am getting tired of this game Sad
Thanks for the suggestion tho!

Glad I slept through what was hopefully the worst part...

In any case, I dumped my ETH - this guy is really sad - Vitalik saying congrats to Ver & co...

The strange thing here is that despite the massive volumes, crypto market cap is still mostly the same.

Latest move is caused by Wu and Ver selling their BTC stash and buying BCH trash. There is no fiat involved. This is why market cap measured in fiat is the same.


Seriously, how much f***ing bitcoins do they have?! If I had 20BN the last thing I'd do is play stupid crypto wars like this. Go figure.

Moving BTC around in anticipation of BTC bear mode. Look at big alts on 1 day candlesticks, including BCH, they grow after the ATH of BTC.
Take your positions. But these movements don't bother long time hodler.  Grin

Bear mode is possibly maximum 4.5k... So not too far away! Hodling steady alas a bit shaky Smiley

Better to sleep over this and see our neighbour ethereum relocating tomorrow Sad
I'll miss it.

This is definitely mostly people panicing or some big whales holding and moving BTCs around. That is a massive red flag to me...
But then again, I've sold my BCH time ago, so I am partial on this story
217  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: November 11, 2017, 09:26:27 PM
Alts are going green... Maybe BCH pump is over and money are going back to their intended place?  Shocked
218  Economy / Speculation / Re: Analysis on: November 11, 2017, 11:42:02 AM
This has been few pages already, I like reading this thread and now it has been flooded...
Dude, I find you posting on this group as a way to say to the world you are just as good as masterluc. You know, maybe you are (as of now though, you are behaving like a self entitled tool), time will tell - if so just open your own thread and people will notice your predictions like they did with ML. Posting here I find is a bit out of place, I click everytime there is a new thread entry and I find nothing new from ML, its quite disappointing...
219  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: November 10, 2017, 02:06:59 PM
Balls, we are going to 5xxx. I'll wait for the dead cat to sell the play btc Sad

There’s always good buying opportunities at times like this, especially if it goes to 5xxx. Don’t be the idiot(s) who sell at the bottom.

If it follows the old patterns, we'll go up again for a short while before going full bear and I'll sell there (not my actual BTCs that are hidden away in case I have any bad ideas). Hopefully we recover by EOY!


My predictions are pretty crappy and unreliable at best, but this one makes sense I think - would be great to hear other opinions


On the other hand, I really look forward to a 5k dip as I just received my Wirex card, would be a good top-up point  Grin Grin
