Looks like XT is a piece of shady bullshit. What will be in the next version ? Direct reporting to NSA ?
confirmed, totally shady. I have had my suspicions about Gavin for a long time, CIA visit (no transcript), CFR talk, the CA/TLS payment protocol privacy leak but this is damning if he wants to sign off on this shit. And the way the XT panopticoin fork is being pitched reads like a bad infomercial. Never trust an Aussie, Gavin, you just made it onto my blacklist (and it is quite short). hey us aussie's are OK you mean never trust an aussie that moves to the USA n works with the NSA, CIA etc

i don't think its been dumped hard...............yet seriously though i don't think the dump was about the fork debate/war but more someone or group, trying to panic the market for quick profits, as it was triggered too instantly.

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LTC calm before the storm ?

I accidentally bought LTC from 3.60$. I don't want to hold for a long time. Where to sell these? 4$? 4.50$?
this threads not about giving individual investment advice, sure your big enough and ugly enough to make these decisions yourself Sure, but I don't believe any storm will happen anymore. At least I lost my belief to see a pump before block halving. I asked an exit point from your point of view. i'm not in the game for fiat profit but from my point of view, from a curious observes view, i think we'll see a ltc pump this weekend, having said that bitcoin itself is looking in trouble (v USD) so that could affect how effective any crypto pump is at this time. i alteast see ltc improving v btc in the shortterm.

I dunno if C-Cex is even worth it. You can easily buy yourself on it with a BTC or two.
They don't seem to be that trustworthy though, IMO.
This coin does not deserve to be tainted by C-Cex. That place is messed up and is basically an troll house and an ICO pit. I know this as I'm in the troll box on a daily basis. Only ever around 30 people logged in. If you do want to get on there, try and get community votes as you'll end up paying the btc then either pick you at random or screw up the voting winner ( happened on a few occasions ) All this being said, the Trolls in the troll box are first class and thats different to cryptsy, how ?

If you had a Bitfinex account and a Coinbase account, you couldve made some easy money. Coinbase went under $200 for a split second but Bitfinex stayed under $200 for 10 minutes, hitting $162. The spread was huge for those 5 minutes They require confirmations, wouldn't be possible to arbitrage. tell me about it but you can kinda do it if you set a spread up across exchanges ready for such events. but yeah ton of arbitrage ops present themselves purely because arbitrage is so difficult to do in crypto trading.

I wish the Winklevoss twins would make a statement about this to calm stuff down. Yes of course, The Winkies.... explain why them making a statement would calm this down. I have more faith in them then anyone with Bitcoin. They have over $1 billion in BTC and worked their asses off in getting their Gemini through U.S. regulations to launch. They literally are putting everything behind BTC. Most of these other experts don't have much skin in the game. actually agree, the biggest experts in crypto on this board are often ignorant to the opinion of the big money.

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No less than 250 Bitcoin XT nodes are virtual servers, likely free trials
|

I undertook the painstaking effort of seeing how many virtual servers/cloud servers were being used as nodes for Bitcoin XT, since the node # rose alot the past few days. No less than 250 nodes are virtual servers from Amazon, Microsoft, Digital Ocean, etc. Seems like almost every company that offers free trials has at least a handful of Bitcoin XT servers. There might be quite a bit more since I didn't have time to research all the different companies. So 40+ % of Bitcoin XT nodes are definitely virtual servers, they're trying to inflate their numbers to appear credible. Free virtual servers have little power so they're obviously not mining, and won't help Bitcoin XT gain ability to take over the network. The only thing they do is create an illusion. https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/nodes/?q=/Bitcoin%20XT:0.11.0/more then a happy coincidence one would say. replies can twist all they want tis obvious someones faking.
