Thanks billbags. I emailed everyone on the cryptography mailing list who had replied but nobody had a copy.

I actually downloaded and read it at the time. But I'm not sure I have a copy. Anyway not on any media which is readily accessible.

I made this reddit thread if anyone wants to upvote : https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2tfcsc/2008_revision_of_bitcoin_whitepaper/
263  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / 2008 revision of bitcoin whitepaper on: January 23, 2015, 06:16:18 PM
The current version of the whitepaper uploaded on Sourceforge is from 2009-03-24. This is the second version of the whitepaper. The first version was published on 2008-10-31. It was uploaded to www.bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf which is where the current version also resides. Does anyone have the original version of the whitepaper?

I have emailed the Satoshi Nakamoto Institute but have not heard back from them. Sergio Demian Lerner mentions the first version of the whitepaper on his blog but I have been unable to get him to send me a copy.

Anyone have an archive of chodpaba's posts? I would like to review what he had to say about volatility over the years. I seem to recall him predicting drops like this for a long time to come.

It's happening. Smiley Ron Paul graphic needed.

Smart money, place your bets. Short or long step up and speak now or forever hold your peace.

So none of these bubble inflated quite the same way bitcoin has again and again?

How much time before bitstamp resumes its trading ?
Coins might be available cheap on sell orders set before the hack . Not sure if they reset that .

There's about 10 minutes left.

9 minutes

8 minutes ( but who' s counting?)
7!

Thanks for the analysis. Now that I have accumulated a bit more at this low I will resume my holding strategy.
271  Economy / Speculation / Re: History repeates 2011 right now? on: January 06, 2015, 09:27:01 PM
The 2011 bubble ended with a Mt. Gox hack which brought bitcoin down to 2$.
Now, Bitstamp got hacked after a long bear market following the last bubble.

If 2011 bottom formed from 35$ to 2$ to 230$ and the history really is more or less repeating itself then
2014 bottom would be 1200$ to 250$ to 28750$ (assuming 250$ was the bottom this time). 

Considering that the Winglewii EDF impending upon us, 5 digits seem realistic. If I remember correctly someone predicted 40k $ per BTC a fair price in the world where EDG has manifested.

The Gox hack was at about $17 and had 5 more months of decline after that. So if we extrapolate that to now, then we have about 3 more years of bear market Cheesy
It could be true. But if it takes us to such stratospheric highs then who cares? Smiley

From a value-oriented investing perspective (best represented by Warren Buffett), the value of one bitcoin is zero. Who is being more rational here, the bull or the bear?

now that is just ignorance at an appalling level.  w.b. would smack you down.
Any updates from the monkey?
273  Economy / Speculation / Re: A MAJOR Factor Contributing to the Price Crash... Not Yet Addressed on: January 05, 2015, 09:47:09 PM
During the bubble in 2013 we saw an increase of 30.70% in network difficulty on Nov 5.

This is a nice increase in speed of the network though. The halving has moved up a day to July 30, 2016.

don't forget that Theymos, owner of this forum, is actively helping the US Attorney convict Mr. Ulbricht by providing evidence.
How?

* masterluc buying frenzy  Grin




Not sure I get the "buying frenzy" line.

Care to explain?

I believe what the master is trying to convey is that he is feverishly and madly buying.  Smiley
I just bought a bunch. Got back about 2/3 of what I had sold in late 2013 (this includes what I bought during oda's signal).
277  Economy / Speculation / Re: Was it ever this hard to hold? on: January 04, 2015, 10:36:13 PM
This ain't nothing, kids. Smiley Tell us about your greatest fears in life. At the end of the day it is just cash cash dollar dollar. Yet the coin remains strong. Play on.
278  Economy / Speculation / $193 would give us a market cap of $2.6b which was the previous ATH on: January 04, 2015, 10:25:33 PM
Last time we were at $266 the market cap was $2.6 billion.

Now we are at $3.6 billion.

To get to the old market cap of $2.6 billion we would have to drop to $193.

Has bitcoin ever fallen below the old market cap? No. Smiley

Let's flirt with it though to get some real despair in. Not sure if this will happen but it is within the range of the possible. I place it as a lower bound on the current bear, but if we make it that low it won't be for long. We can however grind sideways around this current price for awhile.
279  Economy / Speculation / Re: Prepare to retest $266 and possibly drop below for a bit on: January 04, 2015, 09:48:36 PM
I've now bought back a total of about 2/3 of what I had sold around $1,100.

Looks like it is happening. Smiley
