Summary:

Altcoins are breaking free from Bitcoin, many going into new all time highs while Bitcoin continues to struggle to break it's ATH, now over 3 years old. Barely any money flows into Bitcoin while top alts get swamped. Great time to sell the top 10 altcoins that have performed the best for top 10-30 coins that will likely pump more as money trickles down. Also good idea to invest in more scalable cryptocurrencies using POS and DAG technology before it becomes an investment theme.

EDIT: a coiner named 'ExploitAgency' from over on the Bitcointalk GRS ANN thread won the Btc-prize Guessing-Game. S/he will get 1,000 GRS from me, and one Uno from B.N. (or me).

Good guess!

Well, although us D L Ex denizens like to joke about Bitcoin falling in a ditch like a dead donkey, it remains the case that the present situation is pretty heavy duty:

' . . . some miners have even been discussing a possible attack on the old blockchain once they move on to mining the new one – dialogue that has prompted concerning statements from exchanges and other industry startups.

It's unclear if either will happen, and others aren't terribly concerned, with some going as far as to describe the recent frenzy as an attempt at price manipulation.'

http://www.coindesk.com/fire-the-miners-radical-ideas-emerge-as-bitcoin-fork-talk-escalates/

And the price-manipulation thang has crossed my mind. (I bet it crossed B.N.'s!!)

' . . .  global financial markets took fright at the prospect that Donald Trump would fail to deliver on his growth-boosting promises.'

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2017/mar/22/nervous-markets-take-fright-at-prospect-of-trump-failing-to-deliver

Well, okay . . . that's pretty fantastic! tee hee

but then: 'blah blah blah blah the future of quantitative easing under higher inflation blah blah . . . '

There it is, campers!! So, what is the smart thing to do when you're in super-extra-mega debt but you must raise interest rates? Well, finding a clean razor blade while you run a hot bath is an option that comes immediately to mind.

' . . . the proposal would find 'Schnorr signatures' replacing the ECDSA signatures bitcoin uses today to sign transactions. By making the switch, developers argue they can decrease the total data in bitcoin's blockchain by up to 25%.'

i like the BTC in red bear mode Wink

It is not a dip.
CHINA <<< are we clear?

I am so screwed on not dumping at 7000 CNY, I thought it would at least tick up to 7011.  Smashes to ashes 6000 CNY.  

There is the dynamo that drives BTC.  YUAN.

and it aint cracking 7000 again, the next leg down will be a bloody spike.

sigh: I snuck out a while ago, but one of our 'passengers' still has 4.5.

Big Picture, though: this sends the whole altcoin-world-set-up-in-XBT-pairs thing wonky . I'll be offering P2Ps starting next week.

Is this fork going to increase the overall value of our holdings, like ETH/ETC?
Or is ETC denying value to ETH?
And in the end, does it really matter to those who held prior to the fork?

Trying to wrap my head 'round all this.

Good to see you hear, F.K., the Neutral Place for Long Timers to Wrap Their Heads around Stuff Like All This.

What my outfit is sure of is that we are seeing tectonic shifts: firstly, capital 'flowing past' Bitcoin to ETH/DASH/XMR -- and obviously doing so in frustration over The Never-Ending (Block-Size) Story -- then flowing further, down the charts.

Towards us . . .


And I noted Unobtanium's v. high volume this morning, and spread across the range of pairs.

My Little Report (on visiting the 'Real World')

My trips to the city are infrequent, guys; and I don't watch television sometimes for 12-14 months at a time. But I'm just on my way home from several days in the Big Smoke. Looked hard at The Reality of Australian Life that I see, and talked to people about cryptos. Here's my report:

Australians, at least, have become bliss ninnies. The term that comes to mind is 'diminishing returns': just how fantastic an experience -- requiring 'going harder' and 'being all the me I can be' -- can buying a packet of toothpicks be?!? Every waking second is utterly crammed with me-me-me activities that require purchasing something.

So, crypto adoption? There's no sense of economic or political crisis. (Australia's economy pivots on exports to China. Nothing is going too wonky here at this second, regardless of what is going on in China.) Thus, 'safe-haven adoption' makes no sense.

And technology? Here it gets interesting. The technological complexity of daily life -- to a guy who pops into it from the Faraway Farmhouse -- is simply fantastic. And although every one understands how to connect everything to everything to everything, it is all so time-consuming that the idea of jemmy-ing an entirely new (libertarian) currency system into the middle of the present model, as an improved payment system, just won't make sense.

Conclusion: the waves of capital coming into crypto this year will be from the smarties on Wall Street rather than mom and pop -- assuming that the system doesn't cack its pants in that time. It'll be safe-haven investment not grass-roots mass adoption.

So we have a really really good opportunity to trade the rhythm of spikes and dips that will be involved.
