White northern European here. Part of Aryan culture.
So you are a white guy. Lets pretend I am Arab. If I say something to the effect of " I've never met a white person, but I bet you crackers (or whatever slur towards white people is used in europe) are too dumb to use a computer. You probably just force some minority to use the computer for you, and take all the credit." How would you react to this? Would you think it is a fair characterization of white people? How is it any different than the comment you made towards black people? It is well known fact that different races have different attributes.
No. People have different attributes, but with no correlation to race. Race doesnt exist on a genetic scale.

He's an African, like the rest of us.
True. According to DNA and anthropological evidence, we all came from Africa. Thats one of the reasons I dont get racism...race itself is nonexistant, its just arbitrary lines that blur the closer you look at them. Human migration model based on mitochondriall DNA evidence:

I seriously never got opportunity to do business with niggers. They are rare here and they are even rarer in IT industry. All I got was some angry word exchange with nigger and white slut accompanying him.
That didn't answer my questions at all. I'm not surprised about the fact that you've never met a black person, I'm surprised that you are immediately hostile to people of a race to the point of using slurs and making assumptions about their IQ, even though you haven't had any interactions with someone of that race. Lets try this a different way, What race are you?

Never met a nigger so I have no idea how dumb they are. Probably they are so dumb that they even don't own a computer.
Do you really believe this? Seriously? Or are you just trying to provoke a reaction? I mean the level of ignorance in that statement is amazing. If I said this exact same thing about whatever race you are (including throwing in a racial slur), how would you react? Would you feel it was a fair assessment of your race? Probably not. So why take that attitude towards people of other races?

The porn industry likes credit cards because you can get someone locked into a subscription, and milk them for cash for a very long time (through making it hard to cancel subscriptions, hoping the customer will be too embarassed to call the cc company for chargebacks, the customer being to lazy to cancel subscription, etc)
The subscription model doesn't really work with bitcoin because the customer can stop paying whenever they want.

Fucking A. The level of shitty racism on this site is starting to get ridiculous.

I've never been really interested in charts, but this one started my curiosity. Thanks for putting it up! Does anyone know about webinars where all this stuff is explained? A a weekly bitcoin charts webinar would be a great thing to learn.
http://www.investopedia.com/university/technical/ is a good place to get started.

(it was completely clear until I started warning people about the bubble here in the speculation subforum ). To be fair, you started doing this at levels well below current, post-crash prices So there was a reason. I started warning people in the high twenties, This crash is going to end up resting well below that.

Hah! I constantly made fun of the people that believed in the manipulator... His weary eyes reflected the dim glare of his laptop as he glanced down at the coffee that had turned cold long ago.
"Shit."
He hadn't had time to taste it, he'd been noisily tapping away on the keyboard for hours. Gaining control of the major exchanges hadn't come easy, but the work paid off, and he now had access to every bitcoin being bought and sold on the open market. It was another layer of dominance over the system, and that filled him with an almost primal level of satisfaction.
Part of him was tempted to cash it all out now. He paused with his hands hovering over the keyboard.
I should just empty all the accounts and run with the money.
He sighed, brushed back his sweat-matted hair, and began typing again. He hadn't gotten to this point by acting like an amateur. Stealing the money outright would be quicker, but more risky. He also knew that the real money came from controlling the trading, and if he was smart about it, he could keep the money rolling in for a very long time. It wasn't easy work, though. There's a lot to keep in mind when you control an entire micro-economy. His programming skills combined with a healthy trust fund had made it easy to corner the market at first, but the market was growing. It had become unruly and unpredictable like a caged tiger, and it was threatening to break free from his control.
So, like so many other nights, he spends tonight hunched over his keyboard. No time to sleep now, there are new trade and arbitrage bots to code. His hands move deftly across the keyboard as his thoughts drift back to what he read on a forum earlier in the day. One of the members had somehow stumbled across some of his handy work, and had whipped the rest of the forum up into quite a frenzy. They even came up with a cute nickname for him.
The Manipulator, he chuckled, I like it.

I know its as if you turned the bubble up side down... we are in an inverted bubble! you know what that means. just like when the bubble burst.....this will be like when the flood gates open. money will poor in. what you only like to rant and rave about a bubble but when the coin flipps and we are ready to launch isnt that correct?
Nope. The downside is definitely finite (BTC worth $0 USD), and I expect the price to settle at a point quite a bit higher than that (somewhere $5 USD) based on its first point of real stability after the last bubble popped. Also, I dont believe the price will go straight to singles...I think we will see points where the price drop stalls for a while; as I've said before, I expect a long slow slide to singles. So you are pretty much wrong all around.

Actually both look pretty bad, especially the first...
But hey, anything can happen I suppose...

smoothie is an ass hole??? so am i an ass hole cuz i wan the price of bitcoins to go up?
Nah, just smoothie...he made the alt cryptocurrency subforum unreadable with his asinine bullshit back when it first opened (I think he was even banned for a while).

This looks bullish to you? or this? what about this one? ...maybe this one?
|
|
|
True - but if you sold you could now buy 4 times more BTC for your long term.
This.
|
|
|
if everyone has to buy 4x as many coins to purchase something, if an influx of people needing to buy something will have to buy 4x as many coins, thus making less coins available to speculators/investors.
This makes no sense at all.

Based on what?
Every single veiw on the charts look bearish.
|
|
|
I'm not one for TA, but actually, in the last hour of trading or so, it looks like a bottom might be forming.... waiting for confirmation.
This thing isn't anywhere close to a bottom yet.
