In SoCal, yes it is legal and I'm actually not sure why because it looks incredibly hair-ball unless cars are at a dead stop. I'll probably ride for a week before I even try it. It is going to feel nice cutting 30 minutes off my commute, though. SoCal's freeways rarely run the speed limit at all anymore, lol.

You know, I think this article is right. The fastest way to mass adoption of bitcoin is to link it to porn. After all, the only thing the internet is good for is porn, right? On a more serious note, walk in to any major datacenter and ask them who their biggest customers are. They will point to huge racks *full* of servers that serve porn sites -- not joking. It is a large industry.

I'm more scared of learning how to split lanes than I am doing a rocky hillclimb, jumping things, or getting sideways on my dirt bike, lol. But yeah, I know what you mean. When I drive the freeways I drive like every single idiot is ready to turn their car into me at any moment for no reason whatsoever. It's like an freakin' obstacle course just to get to work...and that's in a full size car!

I'm 28. Only about 6 years ago did I start paying attention to financial news, started watching the stock market, etc. I've learned a lot about investing since then, and Bitcoin was my first real investment and first real trading experience. I'm glad I took the gamble - I've purchased all my street bike safety gear and my MSF course with nothing but BTC profits, close to buying my bike from a friend now.
Awesome! I have also invested in gear from BTC, I just wish I could buy gear IN btc.. Welcome rider, keep the shiny side up and the rubber down.. // Ride safe! I hit bambi last year and removed my elbow, was riding in tshirt and jeans.. I learned my lesson, ATGATTYou dont wanna be like me an in the hospital asking how they are going to stitch me up and the nurses all laughing.. They said you have to have skin to stitch up first... :S If I had my gear on, I could have walked away from the bambi slaying incident.. Heres a pic of the stupid cop that was about to eviscerate the baby dear with a shot gun.. He was quickly called an idiot when the animal control yelled at him and said his side arm was much more relevant, and to get back, he has a needle for this sorta thing. /snip Ah shit man, you hit Bambi!!! Well, I didn't skimp on my dirt bike safety gear and I definitely didn't skimp on my street bike gear either. Still doesn't mean I won't get hurt. Fell down in 1st gear learning how to slide the rear and tore up my knee again. Buddy was wearing full gear on New Years and tried to take a little jump and ended up in a helicopter with 5 broken ribs, punctured lung, knocked out, air entering chest cavity under his skin, etc. Motorcycles are just freakin' dangerous and I fully realize it.

So, who profits from volatility?
Good traders. It's like christmas for them. I'm stuck in a long position above $7 and I refuse to liquidate. If I wasn't stuck in a position I would have had an orgasm during that swing.

That is one hell of a candlestick. Does anybody have the technical name for it? You know, like those other 40 names for candlesticks like morning star and shit?
