Just wondering have you ever need to use it?

Never had to use it, but there was one situation where I had to make a motion towards my sidearm and command someone "Stay right where you are and don't come any closer" to stave off a situation from possibly escalating to something worse than it could have been.

Was top-down in my baby, and another brother was approaching me on foot, with ill-intent on the face.

I hope I never, EVER, have to legitimately brandish it in defense of myself or another.

EDIT: Meta: Situational awareness is a helluva thing. I'm wondering if that's subtly one of the reasons for anxiety in people. Brain is working in overdrive to constantly analyze nervous-system input, and that can be taxing on your serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine infra.

You could move somewhere safe.  Just sayin...

There is nowhere absolutely safe. Think of it as mere insurance.
Denmark. No guns, no criminals with guns, no excessive amount of niggers and the ones we have never step excessively out of line. Of course, there are the freezing temperatures but hey.

There were a total of 57 murders in Denmark in 2017. Sauce: wikipedia. So: low, but non-negligible.

It's just a tool, people. One you don't ... uh ... need. Until and if you really need it. At which point, few substitutes are satisfactory.

There is quite the gap between absolute and relative, relatively speaking.

I'm absolutely sure of it.

You mentioned/implied on WO, that exchanges make money using BCH (if I remember correctly).
Interesting view point. I mean why not any other coin, or just the fees. Care to elaborate?

If I know of which comment it is to which you refer, it would be my reply to someone who thought exchanges would be well served by delisting BSV. My reply was something along the lines of 'That would reduce profits. Hint: it is in the name'.

My reply was not BSV specific. It was merely pointing out the futility of exchanges delisting ANY coin. Especially one of the top market cap coins such as BSV. Picture an exchange that delists all but one asset. No trading can be accomplished. As the exchanges make a percentage of each trade, if no trading can be accomplished, then no profits.

Delisting any coin carries the price of not making a profit on exchanges of that asset. Pretty basic, that.



Now you know how I feel, when all you shills promote this crap on the Bitcoin Wall Observer thread.

If it were the BTC Wall Observer thread, you might have a valid point.
It is.

When was it renamed? That certainly isn't the name under which Adam opened it.

http://web.archive.org/web/20131110204535/https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178336.msg1858442
so he musta renamed it in the first ~6 months?
he was already plotting against us then? certain?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85687
His first go-round doesn't help either way

Again. If he had named it BTC Wall Observer, then you may have a point. But he did not. So neither do you.
1406  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 26, 2019, 08:28:16 PM
I sold a little a couple of hours ago, you are welcome.

Yes, thank you for your selfless service.
1407  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 26, 2019, 08:10:14 PM
By the way, only 8 more hours before the weekly candle closes, and she doesn't seem willing to turn green.  We would hav to get to a bit above $8,200 for this week's candle to close green

Well, that comment didn't age particularly well.

I'm guessing you're not very broken up over it, tho.
1408  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 26, 2019, 08:08:21 PM
Well, the last half-hour has been interesting.

Cue Vegeta. Curtain call time?

Good Morning, Bitcoinlandia.

Just got back from running around grocery shopping with Rick, and remember; personal hygiene and personal safety are very important to any HODLing regimen.

Stay safe and clean, HOLDers !



I sense much wisdom. 1911 pattern protection.

I seem to be noticing a disturbing acceleration of the trend of otherwise respected WO members trying to turn this thread into some crappy substitute for facegram or instabook. Do the contents of your digestive tract really have anything to do with Bitcoin price?
1412  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 26, 2019, 07:39:54 PM
Wall observing has been most pleasant these last few minutes. Over $8500 on Coinbase. How long Vegeta?

But seriously, if you have access to it, try metformin, it helps tremendously.


its there online but you have to pretend a doctor told you that you need it. you already take it etc. can you just blag it? some say UK pharmacy they must cross reference the name and address or something?



I don't know about the UK but it's available OTC in many countries. It shouldn't be too hard to get online.
You don't need it to get into ketosis, the diet will do that but it's a good supplement all in all.

Plus, all the life extension hackers take it too.

Hmm. Not much of a loss.

Lemon Tea, Lime, Orange, Shock Top, Shandy, Citra, Wheat... Not much beer on that 'beer' list anyhow.

Hello brothers WO`s! Cool
You can sign the petition by clicking here.
https://www.change.org/p/karyn-temple-remove-craig-wright-s-name-from-bitcoin-whitepaper-copyright
They demand that Craig's name be removed from the copyright registration for Bitcoin Whitepaper.

It ain't just a river in Egypt.

No, I'm not speaking about whether or not CSW is Satoshi. I'm speaking about the fact the procedures set by the Copyright Office are run as per regulations in the Federal Register, which are in turn a codification of the requirements set upon said office by legislation passed by congress and enacted into law by the President.

You think the Copyright Office is going to overturn the way the entire US Government works in order to satisfy an ignorable number armchair warriors emboldened in righteous indignation?

Silly English bed-wetting types... I fart in your general direction.

Do ya own research

BSV follows the white paper closest.

Wanna dispute that with same weak crap?

Bye

LOL, seems like you never read the WP...


In the whitepaper: "7.Reclaiming Disk Space" https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf


A  block   header   with   no   transactions   would   be   about   80   bytes.     If   we   suppose   blocks   aregenerated every 10 minutes, 80 bytes * 6 * 24 * 365 = 4.2MB per year.  With computer systemstypically selling with 2GB of RAM as of 2008, and Moore's Law predicting current growth of 1.2GB   per   year,   storage   should   not   be   a   problem   even   if   the   block   headers   must   be   kept   in memory."

So according to the whitepaper, Bitcoin should be light enough so that anyone with a standard computer can store the blockchain.


BSV "vision" of the whitepaper ?
https://bitcoinsv.io/vision/

2 – Scalability
[...]

"Massive scaling is also important to convince enterprises to use BSV for their blockchain applications – which will require big blocks and large throughput capacity."


Big blocks are in no way the vision of the real Satoshi. His vision is the average Joe being able to run a full node on an everyday computer.




Moreover, what's the very title of the whitepaper ?  "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System"

NO smart contracts, Bitcoin was not designed to be Ethereum, there is not a single reference to "smart contracts".

Amazing that you read all that without understanding that it explicitly says that Moore's (so-called) Law will allow us to process big blocks (your emphasis) while storage   should   not   be   a   problem (again, your emphasis).



Now you know how I feel, when all you shills promote this crap on the Bitcoin Wall Observer thread.

Have a nice life.

Thanks. So far, so good.



Interesting article from Crypto Law Review:

https://medium.com/cryptolawreview/bitcoin-battle-668349176b38

Reads as though they were likely already convinced of SV's superiority before they wrote the article. But even read with such a bias in mind, it contains useful insights on the battle between BTC, BCH and SV in the hearts and minds of the people.
1418  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bitcoin Cash - Pro on-chain scaling - Cheaper fees on: May 25, 2019, 11:08:42 PM
With BTC wait 3 confirms to be assumed safe.
With BCH wait 6 confirms to be assumed safe.

Any reorg higher than those #s,
then double spends could occur, and then you have the panic, anything below those #s, and no one really cares.

There's a reason why with BTC its 3 and BCH its 6, you forgot to mention that part...


The reason is the same for both,
that is the recommend confirmations from the developers for assumed safe transactions.   Smiley

Feel free to outline a post why there is a difference in the numbers of confirmations required by the developers.

"The reason is the same for both" doesn't even make sense as an answer.

But to give you an outline, it has to do with hash rate. It means that a BCH transaction is much more vulnerable at 3 confirmations than BTC.

https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/hashrate-btc-bch.html

True.

But hashrate per chain is plastic. Hashrate is freely transferable between BTC, BCH, and SV. Currently, it is 1.8% more profitable to mine on BTC than it is on BCH (source: coin.dance). What would happen if BCH becomes significantly more profitable?

So, yes. To reiterate Khaos77's statement, the reason is the same for both.

Just consider the bitcasino one. 0.02BTC times 52 weeks and that 1.04BTC a year.

Sometimes I feel this urge to wear the WO hat but then again I tell myself every satoshi counts for the future and when it's free then just take it. I also feel honored to wear this sig by the way. I mean look at the campaign we are only five here. It's a privilege too.

Anyone comfortably placed in a decent campaign would be barking mad to give it up. In five or ten or more years from now people posting here will be vomiting in amazement at how much posting one's dick pics added up to.

Or, you know, you could spend the price of a good meal each week on Bitcoin, and maintain your self-respect.

All I see is the letter B and then a text that is not very specific, sorry.
Ah, after you added the note, I understand.
Thank God you finally got it LOL
Do you spend all your time only in the WO? Seems like you have no idea what is going on in the other boards LOL

There are no other boards. Only sources of yammering chaos and disinformation.
