1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Litecoin - a lite version of Bitcoin. Launched! on: March 23, 2020, 01:50:55 AM
It has been a few months since I synced my OSX Litecoin Core wallet. I couldn't sync so I updated the client.  And still, after updating, for some reason it is stuck on "Connecting to Peers" with 0 active connections. And I don't remember having this issue before. I'm running version 0.17.1

Do I need to update to a newer node list? What could have changed that is preventing me to sync?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

OK, so I have stressed myself out trying to figure out how to get more than 0 active connections.  I have the latest Mac Wallet. I tried the bootstrap and got nothing but errors. There's gotta be an easier way to sync this wallet.  Any help on adding nodes/connections would be greatly appreciated.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [UNO] Unobtanium Info & Discussion - Update to 0.10 Wallet - Merge Mine w/BTC! on: April 26, 2017, 11:17:26 PM
Hey there, I have the old unobtanium wallet and went to the website and it seems the only new Mac wallet is an electrum wallet. Is it a light weight client? I always prefer downloading the blockchain when possible rather than rely on light weight clients. But I'll take whatever wallet will work. What are my options and how do I utilize my current wallet.dat file? Would I just replace the wallet.dat in whichever wallet I use.

Thanks

well, market sometimes retests, but it certainly looks similar to 2013.
However, in 2013, markets recovered completely in 9-10 days.
We shall see what happens here.

This cycle is about 6 times longer than the previous cycle.  So if it took 10 days in 2013, it would take up to two months in 2016.  If history repeats though, we'd see an epic rise after that

At the end of this week, I'm temporarily ending this campaign.  Too many people not following directions, this campaign has become more of a liability than an asset for now.  

When is the end of the week?  Friday?  Sunday?

Also it seems a bit strange that we need to add up how much we are owed.  What if some of our posts do not qualify for whatever reason?  

Look in the OP, I've explicitly stated the duration of the week. Mon-Sun, eastern standard time.  This is the reason why I'm ending this campaign for now.  Too many people not following directions, this campaign has become an absolute liability.

No worries at all.  I've just suspended my own participation prior to the official suspension of this campaign.  Keep the money.  This has become a liability for my own time as well.  We're talking about spare change here.  It would be a lot easier to just subtract the amount of posts from the previous total posts since the last time the person reported it.  Then nobody would have to follow so specific of directions (especially when some of us have jobs and we get too busy to do it on specific days).

Really doesn't make sense why we should add up our own paychecks.  That's a lot of work for so little reward (when it could be done a lot easier as previously stated) and on top of that I don't see how people wouldn't cheat the system, unless you're checking all their posts.  In that case, the campaign would be a liability in and of itself

The price party being over?
Dude we haven't even started!
Give it a few more months, becoming the market aware of that reward got cut in half, and I'm sure we are going to see some really nice upwards movements!With a bit of luck a 2x increase until january or february 2017 is possible imo.

I agree.  Have patience.  This entire market cycle is playing out at least 6x longer than previous cycles.  So while I definitely think we are going up in the mid to long term, as far as the short term goes, it all just has to play out.  Brexit was just the beginning.  The entire global financial system is on its knees right now
8  Economy / Speculation / Re: Poll: What year will Bitcoin reach $10,000? on: July 12, 2016, 10:19:13 PM
I predict that Bitcoin could reach $10,000 before the ball drops on New Years of 2019.  And I consider this prediction to be conservative.  It could happen before then.  If the global financial system crashes, there's no telling how fast it could rise

Bitcoin price just dropped $30 to $630 lol lmao

Bears have limited amount of time left before they should consider long term hibernation
10  Economy / Speculation / Re: Incoming third bubble..? on: July 08, 2016, 06:28:32 PM
Interest over Bitcoin is about to explode, all the mainstream media is starting to report on it a lot lately. This time a lot of shorter will get burned. There are some know it all smartass guys that think when mainstream media reports you have to sell, but this eventually will not be the case, so those guys will sell and be left out of the game with 0 BTC.

Time to HODL.

Price has been steady at above $600 for a while now. You guys think this is the top already? The halving is already looming yet the market looks to be unresponsive as of yet.

The halving effect has been the price already for several weeks. The real effect of reduced dump has yet to be felt.

The first halving was priced in too....then it went up 5,000% in 12 months.

Just curious, do you think it's possible that the 4+ million bitcoins yet to be mined are already priced as well, due to market foreknowledge alone?
11  Economy / Speculation / Re: Incoming third bubble..? on: July 08, 2016, 06:26:49 PM

I think this is spot on. But we'll need to wait a bit longer than this December.

In the MtGox chart the pre-bubble pad to the $15 peak is 273 days and then the part that you don't show from the $15 peak to the bubble start is another 137 (to 1.01.2013 - the price then was still about $13.5 and it was about to start bubbling up). The downslide is 133 days - so it is about three times less.

Now the downslide was 413 days (to 14.01.2015 the bitstamp lowest point) or 629 (18.08.2015 - the bitfinex lowest point).

So if we want to have the same proportions the next bubble should start either

about 1200 days after 14.01.2015 - that is May 2018
or
about 1900 days after 18.08.2015 - that is October 2020

Wow that was surprising even for me how far away it gets.

It seems like you are treating the two bubbles in 2013 as one. There were two. It bubbled from $15-ish to $200 in a matter of months. Then crashed. Then another bubble went to $1100+ and then it crashed. So we will certainly not have to wait as long as you suggest to see approximately 1,000% gains...assuming history repeats
12  Economy / Speculation / Re: No Big Halvening Price Rise on: July 08, 2016, 05:09:10 PM
The first halving had a bit of a price increase preceding it. The big fireworks though didn't follow until months after. Just look at a price chart from 2012 to 2014. We have a long way to go before the bubble for this cycle bursts

3327    Economy / Speculation / Re: How Much Lower are We Going? Already at $2.25 !!!   on: November 17, 2011, 01:08:25 PM
To answer the question in the thread title...we're going all the way down.  There simply is no reason for bitcoins to be worth more than a $1, no reason at all.  Nagle has been right.  When a bubble pops, it pops all the way, and in the case of bitcoin, there's no reason for a legitimate recovery on the horizon.

 Cheesy

Night of the Living Trolls I tell you. I wonder if these shills are being paid in Bitcoin lol.
The halvening is happening tomorrow. The first halving was followed by a large increase a few months after it happened. Just Hodl and ignore the trolls who have been wrong since $1 lol
14  Economy / Speculation / Re: Aaaand up we go on: July 08, 2016, 05:00:00 PM
Damn, all those people that tried to short and hasn't bough back in already must be really mad. It was so clear that all you had to do is keep buying the dips as they always happen and after the dip is done, the price always goes up no matter what. Bitcoin has only been going UP for years now since the last 150 dollar bottom! people getting out of Bitcoin are INSANE. Big, big, big gains in the future awaits for holders.

Supply and Demand! The supply-issuance is getting cut in half tomorrow. The demand would have to decrease a dramatic amount for the price to not go up. Demand for new coins would have to be cut in half for the price to stay flat. Demand for new coins would have to drop by more than half for the price to go down.

Certainly there is a bit more to price discovery than just this. These dynamics are not always so clearly defined, but supply and demand fundamentals do serve as the foundation for valuation..
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC is over $9,000,000,000 in market capitalization for the 1st time in months on: July 07, 2016, 08:48:14 AM
It's amazing, as I write we're experiencing incredible numbers. Let's hope the uptrend continues!

June 3 update: having reached $576 per BTC, market capitalization has touched $9,000,000,000!
Look at the price we all know that this is impossible and it is not going to happen, we should be more realistic here and focus on what really can happen.
I am hoping for the value to be $1000 which is pretty realistic but some people on here hope for miracles.


Kind of like the many miracles that have happened in Bitcoin? What about the two miracles in 2013? Reality has shown that what really can happen in Bitcoin in a time frame of only 12 months is a 5,000% increase in price
16  Economy / Speculation / Re: Economic facts: BTC price can be 60K up to 1.6M US$ per Bitcoin on: July 07, 2016, 03:11:38 AM
even if only a tiny fraction of the worlds money supply moves into BTC, a price of 10 000 or even 1000 000 is easily possible

check this out

http://money.visualcapitalist.com/all-of-the-worlds-money-and-markets-in-one-visualization/

world money supply 80 000 000 000 000

approximately 67000 $ per bitcoin, even if only 1% of it moves into bitcoin

But wait, total world debt is 200 000 000 000 000, and in case of a fiat currency breakdown, this debt has to be converted into money (so called monetization of debt; typically done as part of a monetary reform). And mind you, if a major currency such as the EUR goes belly-up, the others will follow, as people will wake up and lose confidence in fiat money. What else is out there? Gold? Not broadly available, not practical. The only thing that could replace a broken fiat currency today, is cryptocurrency. If debt is monetized, those scam-tokens will flow into Bitcoin in a matter of weeks.

----> theoretical potential of up to $1.6 million per Bitcoin

Naturally not all money will move into Bitcoin but it is a clear thing, that 10 000 or even 50 000 are a nobrainer, and fiat money (and debt) is exponentially growing

Silver is also good.

Sleep tight LOL  Wink!

and HODL!!!

Anyone who thinks that Bitcoin isn't undervalued right now is certifiably crazy.  The marketcap should be at least 50x higher than it is now
17  Economy / Speculation / Re: Halvening 99% ready, rocket only 2 weeks to go before moon launch!! on: July 07, 2016, 03:05:48 AM
Woohoo! We're almost there! Let's be part of bitcoin history  Grin what should we do to party? Anyone hav any ideas? Half a cake and half a (24 of) beer? Is there going to be half of a ball dropping in New York City? That would be epic.

From your understanding of markets. Do markets generally price in fundamental events before, or after the event?

If markets tend to price things in 'before the event', then what tends to happen after the event?

I think the halving is not new news. We knew this several months ago. So the price is already reflecting that.

knowing or not knowing about halving doesn't make any change. there may be some hype because of knowing it is going to happen and increase the price because of it but also it is all about the supply and demand and when halving happens this supply will be even less.

I agree with this.  There is definitely speculation going on surrounding the halving.  However, pre-established price due to the market knowledge of this event would be like claiming the 4 Million+ bitcoins that haven't been mined yet are already priced in.  Or pick a number.  You can't price these kinds of things in.  It needs to play out in the market

Bears should definitely consider hibernating for the winter...and it could be a very long winter.  I will be quite surprised if we don't hit $1,000 by Christmas
19  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never reach $700 again on: July 07, 2016, 02:57:25 AM
how about this chart ?

source

i think we will see biggest pump before halving Roll Eyes
BIg rebound will come before halving done.

This chart appears to have been fairly accurate.  We are currently riding above the lower parabola and reaching toward the boundary of the upper parabola.
If the price of bitcoin continued a path in alignment with this chart, we would be looking at a lower bound price of at least $750-ish by January 1st of 2017.  The upper bound is harder to tell since the upper parabola is off the chart, but (again, if this chart trend holds), the upper bound would be $1500+ by the time the ball drops on new year's eve

This is a fact.  And think about the hundreds of millions (perhaps billions?) of unbanked people who are also on the internet!  The upside from a $9 Billion market cap is INSANE!
