Worst of all is the ENVIRONMENTAL damage caused by the chemical spills from all mining including gold where mercury is used.  Most mining industries have tight standards in developed countries but the pollution left behind trapped in pits and lakes eventually fail and flow into the rivers and aquifers.  The damage is appalling!  In third world countries even children are exposed to mercury in the processes of gold extraction.

This a time delay exploit that the whales traders will be able to use again and again.

They will shake people out, and while their fiat cash out is trapped in limbo, the whales will be able to move the market back up and fiat sitting in limbo won't be able to get back in.

and we dont know who have been pumping bitcoin recently. It could be hedge funds who are going to sell contracts in CME, and we dont know if the banksters who are against bitcoin will be their clients or not.

But dont they interrogate the guys who are arrested?

Ain't seen any mention of this. The Bulgarian authorities seized 213,000 bitcoins from some pesky criminals. I wonder how and where and over how long they gathered so many coins.

No doubt some pencil necks will insist they will dump all on Yobit.

Why there is only an asm version of the fe_mul and not of the fe_add too?

I'd like to know besides if someone know if it is possible to exploit avx instructions to speedup operations with 64 bit representation.

I've actually dreamed of btc and darkcoin (back in the DRK days, not as DASH).

BTC I've had only one dream:


Darkcoin was trading related, I actually saw exact prices of pumps and dumps. I had success more often than not.

The recipe for dreaming such stuff comprises of 3 ingredients

1) Obsession or too-many-hours dealing with something in daytime
2) Thinking about the same thing before going to sleep
3) Being able to suspend one's ego-facade. It seems to interfere with intuition.

where do you get this list? why no arbitrage?

We will need some time until we break this new GDAX ATH (19.7k)

I dont like the idea we are profiting from the North Korean economy. 

South Korea is a technologically advanced developed country driven by a highly educated and skilled workforce, having the world's eighth highest median household income, the highest in Asia.[44] Globally, it ranks highly in personal safety, job security, ease of doing business and healthcare quality, with the world's third highest health adjusted life expectancy and fourth most efficient healthcare system.[45] It is the world's largest spender on R&D per GDP, leading the OECD in graduates in science and engineering[46] and ranking third in the Youth Wellbeing Index.[47] Home of Samsung, LG and Hyundai-Kia, South Korea was named the world's most innovative country for 4 consecutive years since 2014 in the Bloomberg Innovation Index,[48] ranking first in business R&D intensity, manufacturing value-added, patents filed per GDP, second in higher education efficiency and fourth in high-tech density and researcher concentration.[49] In 2005, it became the world's first country to fully transition to high-speed Internet[50] and today it has the world's fastest Internet speed and highest smartphone ownership, ranking first in ICT Development, e-Government[51] and 4G LTE coverage. South Korea currently provides the world's second largest number of Christian missionaries, surpassed by the United States.[52]
