I was expecting an expert proclaiming a vulnerabilty of bitcoin software. Instead, I got Julian from TenX talking about (when looking through the comments) about 'chain reorganisations'? Anyway, things must be busy over at TenX (chirp..... chirp..... nope, no card over here..... nope, no card over there.... ). But perhaps I am missing the point I saw this posted on reddit. Didn't watch it, but commenters were saying he basically "discovered" the 51% attack.

Enough said: Is this real? How do I use it? Or what is a good resource to explain how to use it? Run Your Own Mainnet Lightning NodeBob and possibly a few others here have experience setting up a node. I'm looking into it as well.

If you use shapeshift.io, you might want to look into alternatives. I wonder how much this cost Bitcoin Judas?

Investors Business Daily is hosting a free one-hour cryptocurrency seminar at 2:30pm EST. It's going to go over chart reading techniques. It will probably be pretty basic, but might help some people. IBD Cryptocurrency Seminar

Bitcoin grew out of the cypherpunk movement, which started in the 70s-80s. A lot of pioneers of bitcoin came from that movement: Adam Back, Hal Finney, Nick Szabo, probably Satoshi Nakamoto, etc. So, Bitcoin was birthed by a bunch of old guys. Guys who'd been around long enough to not only figure out how elliptic curve cryptography works, but also to draw the necessary lines from/to economy, game theory and all that. Younger people can pull off great discoveries in specific fields - indeed, it's usually younger folks who do that - but large interdisciplinary endeavors are more suited to mature people IMO. That's a good point. I'll also take the opportunity to rant a bit. Out of those four I mentioned, one is AWOL, one is dead, and the other two are fervent supporters of Bitcoin over BCash. Bitcoin is much more closely aligned with the original cypherpunk principles that elevate privacy and decentralization.
It's not even worth discussing. A forkcoin more or less signed into existence by an agreement of a few commercial enterprises and kept alive by a single conglomerate through the use of dubious tactics... That was aimed at the handful of bcash supporters/sympathizers here. Are you reading all this jbreher?

I'm leaning towards going the like-kind route.
Considering that the law regarding like-kind transfers is crystal clear from 2018 on, they may not try fight with people on it over cryptos, a very murky area, for 2017. Normally if they want to expend a bunch of legal resources it's to set a precedent going forward. In this case, a series of expensive legal battles simply isn't worth it.
Even if it doesn't fly, the IRS won't penalize you too hard, as long as you file the proper paperwork. If they see you tried to do your best, they'll be fair with you if you owe money.
In the end it's all just a gamble.

So basically, if a guy is wearing a hat, he'll go either way.

Criminally undervalued, Can't wait for ledger integration too. Literally the only technology in the world that can successfully accomplish the function it's claiming
I have a new unwrapped ledger waiting for it, too. Same. I have a few other altcoins I could throw on there, but I don't plan on holding them long enough to make it worthwhile.

The curious question about the jews is why does nobody like them? Hitler was not the first Hitler, and he won't be the last. The jews have been kicked out of hundreds of places around the world over the last few thousand years. But why? What is it about them that makes them so detestable to, apparently, most of the world?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balfour_DeclarationWhen i read this over a few years back i went ARE U FOR FXXKIN REAL lets displace millions of people now i do not hate followers (brainwashed) of evil c$%nts but what was done here is inexcusable "His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object" Why why whywhy if I am British do I give a flying f#$ck about these people Perhaps the people who benefited from the Balfour Declaration promised to push for and finance America's entry into WWI, on the side of Britain.

Happened that I'm tired arguing with you about obvious. You stated: Germany was the elephant (better technology, better trained, better generals, etc.) the Soviets were the ants (huge numbers) and I've shoved you the figures that in 1944 when the Germans where truly defeated there were 3,370,000 Hitler's fighters confronted to 6,425,000 Soviet fighters. If that complies with your definition of one elephant vs huge number of ants then I'm out of the discussion. You are right that those 3,3M fighters had better technology, were better trained, had superior command infrastructure and still they are defeated by 6.4M fighters. It certainly was not the "ant psychology" that gained victory with such less then 1:2 number difference. Hitler was a retard when it came to military science. His strategies were terrible, and his micromanagement was even worse. If he would've left the war to the generals, most of Eurasia would be speaking German now.

~$5,900 is bedrock, and the increasingly bearish sentiment is bullish. That is all.

And that's your 1165th post??!?!
Yes. Don't be surprised when you raise a few eyebrows coming in here posting as Mr. Bear Troll for your first post. Why don't you show the noob absolutely who you are by giving him a complementary post delete? That may be considered an abuse of power though...But sometimes these noobs need a little swat on the behind. It's very tempting

Hi All.
I see BTC shaping up for a bad, or really bad week. Looking forward to the buy zone @ ~2k
Haha yea right. Bring it. Pretty sure takes more than $2000 to mine one bitcoin. Unless you’re a philanthropist you’re not gonna sell it for such a price. Well I'm quite sure BTC crashed -94% TWICE before, please explain in detail why this (or similar) wouldn't happen again For higher, we need to go lower. (much lower) That's your first post?! And that's your 1165th post??!?! Yes. Don't be surprised when you raise a few eyebrows coming in here posting as Mr. Bear Troll for your first post. Also, show me all those 94% drops please.
