TRUMP 2016! CAN'T STUMP THE TRUMP! Trump will make Bitcoin mining in the USA profitable again! Why should the chinks get all the profits from mining anyway? Trump will deport all bears and shorters to Mexico! TRUMP 2016! Meanwhile, in actual news, Bernie Sanders wants to impose a 0.1% - 0.5% financial transaction tax on trading, PER TRADE (like your broker commission )...

... Pushing for higher miner fees is barking up the wrong tree. Either we manage with lower fees or the system fails, if you ask me. This will be the case regardless of transaction rate.
Can't we just hardfork to a new, better block reward schedule (print more money)? What good would that do? The mining subsidy is the single biggest reason miners suck off such a large portion of wealth stored in BTC at the moment. Mining subsidy coupled with bullish price expectations, that is. (An inflation-corrected BTCUSD chart would probably be pretty illuminating...) That's a really good idea. A chart of BTC price over time adjusted by the amount of total BTC in existence at that point in the chart. SIDE NOTE. Sold some coin today to pay off a few bills. Still positioning myself to wait out the fullblocalypse. Here's a chart of market cap, but I guess you are looking for the opposite effect https://blockchain.info/en/charts/market-cap?timespan=all&daysAverageString=7&scale=0&address=

Define 'crash'. To where, 420? 380? I guess he's not making those kinds of calls anymore because last time he was off by 50% of the move

Shills are people inserted by an agency. These assholes are just serving their own self interests

Every movement up or down looks really big to all the traders because they're looking at a short time frame and don't zoom out, so the movement takes the entire vertical height on the chart. It's the same as when your trading forex and look at a 1 minute chart and think 'oh god look at that huge 5 pip move'
na im talking about the forums I go to, during august there were massive posts going don't buy bitcoin etc etc and by really smart looking people, then everything goes quiet on the uptrend passed 300$s. Then when it drops by 30$ all these people come out of the woodwork back again posting the same EXACT fud from when the price was at 200$s. I used to think shills were a myth or just silly confirmation bias but im starting to believe it. Yes there are lots of traders who post bearish things mostly only during bearish periods. Either because. 1. They're long during the bull periods 2. They don't bother posting during the bull period because they'll be drowned out by bulls and up movement psychology. 3. You don't notice them during bull periods because they're drowned out by tons of bull posts (do you read EVERYTHING? ) they're just traders, assholes, liars, and bears. I don't see what makes them 'shills'

It's the same as when your trading forex and accidentally look at a 1 minute chart and think 'oh god what's happening now. What's this huge move. Oh it's only 5 pips'

I guess a trend of 10 dollar decreases looks terrible when you forget to put it next to the 100 dollar increase (or the 300 dollar increase)

Better keep that candle green to keep krampus away for Christmas

Sha256 and ec will inevitably be completely broken by mathematicians. You won't need a quantum computer, just a pen and paper. However, bulls claim that will be able to see the vulnerabilities coming many years in advance and release forks and issue everyone new private keys beforehand.

Don't forget also that gold is highly valuable for its usages in semiconductors, medicine, space exploration, etc

"The trend is reversing" - on which time frame though?
|
|
|
You know that sentiment has reached adequately negative levels when people think that crypto is done, over some mining issue

It's not just the location of the moon but the lengths of time involved. The Bulls wanted 1000 by Christmas, not mid 2017.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3xnchr/rand_corporation_is_researching_how_to_destroy/The Department of Defense should be aware of the following:
[Virtual Currencies]'s represent the latest step toward decentralized cyber services. In particular, the historical trend suggests the development of a resilient public cyber key terrain, which this report defines as the ability of unsophisticated cyber actors to have persistent, assured access to cyber services regardless of whether a highly sophisticated state actor opposes their use. This has implications for national firewalls, access to extremist rhetoric, the feasibility of nation-state cyber attacks, and the ability to maintain uninterruptible and anonymous encrypted links. This report will examine the potential for terrorist, insurgent, or criminal groups to increase their political and/or economic power by deploying a VC to use as a currency for regular economic transactions rather than exploiting existing VCs as a means of illicit transfer, fundraising, or money laundering. First page of the summary: This report examines the potential for non-state actors, including terrorist and insurgent groups, to increase their political and/or economic power by deploying a VC as a medium for regular economic transactions as opposed to exploiting already-deployed virtual currencies, such as Bitcoin, as a means of illicit transfer, fundraising, or money laundering.
