C'est pas une question technique, au contraire, c'est une question de trading, mais je viens de jeter un oeil au graphe du DRK comparé au BTC et le DRK pique méchamment du nez là. Sauf que la dernière fois qu'il est arrivé plus ou moins au niveau où il est maintenant il a commencé à faire la fusée (pis il a explosé en vol, ce qui nous amène à aujourd'hui). Par contre maintenant, pour peu qu'on dézoome un peu, ce qui m'a sauté aux yeux c'est un RSI incroyablement bas, et ce de façon constante depuis octobre dernier. J'avais encore jamais vu un RSI aussi bas sur une période aussi longue. D'ailleurs c'est du jamais vu dans l'histoire du DRK aussi. En plus il y a clairement deux palliers : un qui commence en octobre 2015 et se termine maintenant, où le RSI est globalement aux alentours de 20 et l'autre qui commence maintenant, qui a vu une chute drastique du prix du DRK et qui montre un RSI de 1. OUAIS UN QUOI.
Ça veut dire quoi tout ça   ?

So funny, I had a similar thought today.
It is notorious that Warren Buffet has no interest in bitcoin but knowing that the guy owns $66.7 billion and that there are, as of now, about 15 million BTC out, there, each of them, worth $450 (which bring the total value of all bitcoins out there to (15*10^6)*450=6,750,000,000 : $6.75 billion).
Warren Buffet has enough dollars to buy every single existing bitcoin 10 times. Who said that banks couldn't fuck the whole system up if they wanted to? I'm telling you that a single insanely rich dude already has much more power than is need on his own.

Either I'm wrong either this is some weird news (and somehow it's good news, though I'm sure that I can't be the first person to come up with that conclusion) : no one seems to be lifting a finger, either because they don't want to, either because for some reason they can't, although A LOT of people technically have the power to fuck the whole thing up and it doesn't even seem that demanding for them (if Warren Buffet felt threatened by bitcoin I'm sure that 6.7 billions wouldn't be such a big deal to him, and besides, banks have much more money than he even does).

What do you mean "The faith on bitcoin is backing it's success so far"?
Faith is the only thing it needs to be successful. Faith is actually the only thing any currency needs to be successful. If John Lennon had been a bitcoiner he'd have sung "all you need is faith". I can't think of anything else that bitcoin would need but faith, really.

Je ne suis même pas sûr de sa propre intégrité neuronale en fait.
Par exemple, quand je lis :
Ça n'a pas l'air d'avoir beaucoup de sens, comme ça, à première vue, mais une fois remis en contexte dans le paragraphe, tout s'éclaire : en fait le mec est sous acides.

A partir du moment où tu doutes c'est très simple, tu es agnostique.
Les athées c'est juste une autre sorte de croyants. Mais ils sont tout ausi croyants et aveugles que les religieux, ni plus ni moins. Ils sont persuadés que Dieu n'existe pas et ils vont te sortir des trucs du genre "la science a prouvé ça, ça et ça" alors que kedal, la science ne peut rien prouver.
Le scientifique d'ailleurs, c'est un agnostique.

J'aime beaucoup cette comparaison pour illustrer les différences :
L'agnostique en gros il entend dans une oreille le religieux et dans l'autre l'athée, et il continue à chercher le chat avec sa lampe de poche sans trop comprendre pourquoi ces deux-là se mentent à eux-même et aux autres.

Ah bah oui, il est remonté  

Les bulls sont de sortie. La montée vient de commencer à 10h du matin, heure chinoise, juste quand j'émergeais d'une soirée arosée hier.
Juste que les bourses chinoises sont à nouveau fermées   . Ça sent la panique. Mais cette fois bitcoin en a profité autant que l'or. Une montée de 20~30 dollars en quelques heures, c'est un excellent remède contre la gueule de bois

Great. This is precisely the nemesis of bitcoin. I was talking about bitcoin today, advertising it to some friends, and this precise point is the one I said I was afraid of. Bitcoin was created as an alternative to inflationary fiat, which is at the basis of today's crisis. If fiat becomes deflationary, than that's a serious blow to bitcoin. I don't fear banks as much as I fear another alternative to the inflationary-based crisis.

Of course bitcoin has other advantages than being deflationary but right now, the biggest one is that one, because of the inflation getting out of control.
Besides, bitcoin is still young, and, I was about to say, weak. It needs to be consolidated. It doesn't need a nemesis. I'm not saying that this is the death of bitcoin because it would be too easy and bitcoin is already stronger than that, but it sure will be a big blow :-/
Especially for the European market, since the other big advantage of bitcoin is cheap transactions, which Europeans don't care about because they already have them.

The news is from the end of last December. I guess this is one of the reasons why BTC dropped from $460+ to $430 recently. Only guessing here, though. If so and provided everything stays in place from now, than it seems to be quite ok. The market didn't lose much faith, comparatively to my fears.

Haha I love this thread. I mean it's so remnant of the 10000 BTC for one pizza thread. So true. That's exactly my type of humour.
Now, still, if someone offered to sell me pizza for 10000 satoshis, I'd happily buy a dozen of them and pay 90000 satoshis as a fee. Who cares ? I can buy it all back for just a few dollars. Or maybe play a faucet during two days. And there it is. Free pizza. Or almost. Without giving away a single satoshi.

Ça a quoi comme implication pour bitcoin, que leur bourse soit gelée ? Ils ont toujours accès à bitcoin, non ? Du coup ça devrait vouloir dire que c'est justement une excellente nouvelle pour bitcoin vu que ça reste leur seul endroit possible pour protéger leur argent.

Parce que j'ai envie de dire, si bitcoin leur est interdit, par quelque moyen que ce soit, l'hiver qui arrive c'est le genre d'hiver qui va faire vachement mal aux gencives.

Je suppose que cette question doit vous paraître stupide mais il faut bien que j'apprenne quelque part :-/

These are the blockchain's applications and potential. Not exactly bitcoin's 

But yeah, that's the potential that it has. A voting system based on a blockchain could bring real transparency to the system. Referendums would become extremely easy to set up.
Now I'm afraid that democracy can easily become a very blind-as-to-the-future kind of system, and such a true democracy, where the population can easily tell their mind about every new bills coming out, given the average degree of education in any country that I can think of, would result in a lot of bullets in the foot. I mean to say, this is not a good idea as long as the people aren't more politically, economically and historically educated.

CDs are gone? Well that's first news, man. I didn't know  

Your obsolete stuff was once massively popular before it became obsolete, and the reason is that something more massive came up and took its place. Answering machines still exist.
Fax machines are obsolete in most countries (notably not Japan though) because of the email.
Laser disks... errr what exactly is that bird? (seriously, I mean, I don't know what that is. How is it different from a CD ?).
8-track tapes and cassette tapes became obsolete because of the CD
Cd's and Dvd's are still well alive, maybe even more so than blu-ray. For some reason blu-ray never made it to become broadly used and remained a bourgeois thing. I, for one, have never used one, not ever.

And it's funny because following the exact same logic you had here, I'd say that the deflationary system modern fiat is based on is right about to become obsolete because of bitcoin. I have an idea. Let's meet again in 10 years and see which one of us was right  .

I'll give it to you: bitcoin also might simply fail at becoming popular and end up like a lot of great inventions that just failed for some reason. Only that it becomes harder and harder for it to fail with every passing day as it increases in popularity. The trend is not exactly that bitcoin is failing at becoming popular. Actually it's quite the opposite, really.
Bitcoin is not easy to use and it is indeed a very important issue now, but you can trust developers and engineers to come up with ideas to change in in the coming years. This problem is only one because the blockchain is a new technology. Time and hard work will get us a way around that.

12000 satoshis c'est 0.00012000 BTC. Tu as oublié un zéro. Ça peut aider d'écrire tous les zéros, dans le cas de petites sommes du style. L'oeil voit mieux.

Quelqu'un d'autre connait ce faucet sinon ?

Apparemment c'est pas trop ça en Chine : http://www.lemonde.fr/economie/article/2016/01/04/les-bourses-chinoises-ferment-pour-la-journee-apres-une-chute-de-7_4841181_3234.html

A part ça j'ai aussi lu d'autres trucs sur le forum, ici par exemple, sur le même sujet. C'est peut-être le moment d'acheter.

J'ai cherché cette application sur le site http://moonbit.co.in/faucet et elle ne s y trouve pas. Ensuite j'ai essayé de la googler pour pas plus de résultats. Où l'as-tu trouvée ? Ah, oui, je cherche un endroit où je pourrais la télécharger en .apk pour bien faire, depuis mon PC.

That's good work, pal. How long have you been drawing? Do you also draw other comics not bitcoin-related?

Keep on like that. The community needs artists to promote it too!

On the whole this article is still very positive and insists on the revolutionary side of bitcoin and the blockchain as well as their potential.

Sad that they had to use the word "cumbersome" when writing about the process of paying with bitcoin, and also that they insisted that bitcoin was used by criminals. But on the whole it still is very positive.

Who said that we needed to reach 60+ aged people and 10- aged kids? I mean, especially the kids. They barely know how to use paper money before 10 (ok they might have bought candies here and there since they were 6 but that's still less then 1 USD and I don't consider it "using money"). We need to reach more young adults first. Oh, and also, investors are the market we want, I think. Then as bitcoin becomes easier to use and its price more stable we can slowly begin to try and reach seniors and sellers. But really that's not a priority now. And forget about kids. They don't even know how to count past a hundred.

100M users sure is a challenge and I don't know if it's reachable in one year, but we have to make it, the quicker the better.

Et la rentrée administrative va provoquer un mouvement vers quelle direction d'après-toi ? Haut ou bas ? (Gauche ou droite ?)
J'ai pas encore bien l'habitude de ce genre de signaux.

Is this about plutocracy?

Because if it's only about voting through the blockchain than it's only a democracy, with no real difference. It's not gonna be any fairer. And plutocracy is especially unfair for that matter (but it's kind of already the world we're living in: a world where banks and petrol corporations have all the power, behind the curtain).

It doesn't work like that.
1) No other cryptocurrency is anywhere close to what bitcoin is. LTC might stay there but the rest are all jokes. And this is important because LTC was created to be able to do something that bitcoin still can't do (faster transactions) but even with that, it didn't manage to bring bitcoin down.
Now ok maybe Ethereum could stay too. I don't really understand Ethereum. But one thing is certain: no alts can bring bitcoin down. The danger is not coming from that direction.
2) No it's not something vital but who cares? Smartphones aren't vital but if I could go back in time and buy some Apple's shares before they made them popular I'd do it. Windows is not vital. Bitcoin never was either. And I can go on and on.
3) Bitcoin is still revolutionary. Or actually, the blockchain is. But it doesn't matter because bitcoin is intrinsically linked to it. And we're only at the beginning of the revolution. Now banks are trying to use it. And I have a good  feeling about the raise in popularity it's going to bring to bitcoin. Think about that early XXth century picture of a car pulled by a horse that people like to post here to make a comparison between that guy and his horse and banks when they're trying to use the blockchain for fiat and imagine for a second: it's early, no one know cars, then you have this guy using a horse to pull a car. You have a carriage. What do you do? You wonder what a car is. You ask the guy what it is. He tells you that it's a new means of transportation. You get interested. You ask a car dealer more questions and he tells you that it's gonna replace horses. Now you get really interested. You buy one, then you buy a petrol tank on the way home and bingo!
That's exactly what banks are doing for bitcoin while trying to use the blockchain for themselves: free advertisement.
