Crossing indicators on the 1 hour. I think we will be testing 9k sooner rather than later.


The same battle is taking place on the daily. A crossing of the trailing MA would indicate a more bullish pattern. Regardless...I think the time for this price range is rapidly closing.

Why is my daemon log showing so many "BLOCK ADDED AS ALTERNATIVE ON HEIGHT ____"? Does anyone have any idea about this?

XMRWallet is a fully client-side wallet offering transaction speeds of around 5-10 seconds, said Nath.
Ummmm... how? This sounds like some scammy dangerous stuff to me.

the people opening the eyes and see the bitcoin is the biggest world reserve of value more and more superior of gold Wink
I disagree. As a reserve asset bitcoin is totally outclassed by gold. Gold is more stable, has a longer history, is more trustworthy (as in maybe bitcoin is flawed or picked bad parameters or maybe it will get owned by quantum computers ect...) and is less arbitrary (there are hundreds of altcoins that aren't fundamentally inferior to bitcoin in any way except for bitcoins network effect). Gold on the other hand is totally outclassed by bitcoin as a value transfer and speculation vehicle.

It looks like most people here is over 40? Noone (no matter which age) that didn't start using computers until the nineties? And absolutely no millenials here?

Interesting if that were the case.

No, several old-timers here have mentioned using Macs from 1979 & Commodore 64s from 1984.

Anyone else start out on a 166mhz pentium?

wtf is this shit??

some kinda joke??


I wish it were. Roger Ver bought @Bitcoin on Twitter.

That guy is walking talking cancer. Why cant he just find a hole somewhere, crawl inside it and spare the rest of humanity.

Is it just me, or is it like almost impossible to corrupt on linux? Tongue

It's not just you. The linux daemon and CLI are so amazingly stable. I haven't ever had a single crash or hick up or corrupted anything, ever, as long as I can remember. It is some of the most stable reliable software I have ever encountered.

Some times it will stop finding new blocks and I have to restart the daemon to get it connected to new peers. I think i'm just getting stuck in some dead end corner of the network from time to time. I don't think that counts towards what I was talking about up there, but I'll add it anyway and let other people judge.

Please do not quote him as everyone has him on ignore. Because we're all jews.

Better yet, quote him really really inaccurately. I bet that will get him going. Especially since he knows that no one will be able to see what he actually said or his protests, so everyone will just assume he actually said it.

If I am understanding correctly Tesla would not have a cent of profit without government handouts. So there is that.
Tesla doesn't have a cent of profit even with government handouts. Someone correct me if I am wrong but I don't think they have ever made a profit. They came close one year by only running 8 digits into the red.


Thats a cool story bro. But the monero miner was crippled deliberately, there are articles online describing in detail by one of the programmers who made an optimised version for himself how the original code looked. if you can be bothered to look for it. The rest of what you say is you guessing what happens within an obfuscated blockchain. By the way 83.7 % of statistics are completely made up.
Look I don't care if you buy monero. Just if you are holding dash beware. It is demonstrably a total and complete scam. Are you aware of the events that took place before dash was called dash and before it was called darkcoin when it was still x-coin?
492  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 10, 2018, 02:42:25 PM

Agree with most of that except the opening. Dash is nothing like Monero and not trying to be.

You are absolutely right:
Monero is decentralized, fairly distributed, without a premine, and truly private.

Dash is none of those.

But this is a bitcoin thread.  I am probably one of the biggest proponents of Monero, but in here I stick to BITCOIN.  Monero is one of the VERY few actually decentralized altcoins with utility.  It will survive as a child of BTC along with Litecoin, and... and... well there *could* be no others.


Good grief you really drinking the cool aid. You don't know what shady stuff is going on in the Monero distribution by design. But the cripple mine at launch is well known. So get the fuck outta here with that nonsense. Yes this is a bitcoin thread, so why you guys keep bringing monero into it and obsessing over Dash. 

The crippled mining situation is real and unfortunate however it was very short lived and not so dramatic that the crippled miner couldn't still be effective and there was no heavily front end weighted distribution curve. And it isn't even clear that there was anything nefarious about it, it's just as likely that the code for the original miner was just poorly written and some enterprising individual realized that he could improve it and use his improved miner to make some money. I highly doubt when it was all said and done that the claymore guy even got away with more than 0.25% of the currency supply. It's unfortunate but not even comparable to evan and co mining something like 70% of the dash currency supply in the first day in secret via a secret launch.

How do people send bitcoin over email these days? You used to be able to use blockchain.info or coinapult to send bitcoin to newbies back in the day but blockchain.info appears to have removed the option and coinapult appears to be no longer supported.

Experts call this event the beginning of the global decline of anonymous cryptocurrencies. Anonymous cryptocurrencies will soon be banned?
We all knew this day would come. Was anyone buying monero with the expectation that it wouldn't be banned in many places? They should probably get their head checked if they were. Censorship is the reason why we need private currencies. Would be censors are just proving our point. They are demonstrating that we were always right to build and invest in this community. If people are sufficiently foolish than maybe this will be the decline, but otherwise it could and should be the beginning of the ascension.

Just a fun way of pointing out your exaggeration. I agree that Bitcoin will likely bring about vast societal change. But the most of any technology ever? Fire? Wheel? Aqueducts? Agriculture? Sanitation? Wheel? Printing Press? Electricity? Mechanization? Radio? Internet?

Also the one that isn't here quite yet but is likely to eclipse all of those things into relative insignificance, AI.
496  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: May 09, 2018, 01:13:41 PM
but the devs need to get their GUI sorted ASAP otherwise I'm out too.

Not really helpful to post such an abstract statement. Would you mind describing your issues in more detail?

The CLI is really nice anyway. He might just consider using that instead. I've tried the GUI and found no reason to want to switch to it from the CLI anyway.

When the sentiment about Monero fluctuates , I 'll be monitoring it in real time with the Amulet Platform data tool just released . Its best way to keep my finger on Monero.
Sounds interesting. Keep us updated if you feel so inclined.


Japanese exchange Coincheck has announced partial resumption of operations with Monero. Its clients will be able to withdraw and sell XMR, but purchases are still unavailable. All previous requests for transactions have been canceled and users will have to initiate new transfers. They will be required to confirm the destination address, and state the purpose of each transaction.

This is very odd. Sell to whom, since each seller requires a buyer. Is the exchange going to trade XMR on its own account?  
Maybe you can put up buy orders but not execute trades?

Bobby Fishers mother was Jewish (also likely his father) and so was he, that was the point I was making.  The problems he attributed as some kind of conspiracy was just a poor way of dealing with his own internal conflicts.

Or maybe he just knows something that you don't from A) being from that community and B) having an IQ that is probably double what yours is. Just a thought.
499  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: May 08, 2018, 07:41:01 PM
One of the many reasons I like XMR: https://moneroblocks.info/richlist
Privacy, in general, is extremely undervalued.

And yet any goods/services bought with XMR that are shipped can still be tracked to shipper or receiver. Somewhat undermining the purpose, yeah?

You don't have to give your real name. And you can have it delivered to somewhere other than your home address. Or you could make a mail pool with other people. And if you really want to go all out you can use one or several remailers. And just because a package is tracked doesn't mean the one doing the tracking knows what is inside the box. But you are right, we live in an imperfect world, so we shouldn't even make any effort to improve the situation at all.

Even better, you can teleport it directly into a lockbox that no one on the earth but you can open. Or split it into 1000 such lockboxes near instantly.

Don't forget that it lacks such inconvenient properties as mass and volume.
