Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[aztecminer]

still battling for 240 like fourth day in a row .

[NotLambchop]

^ off topic but...

How about we return to discussing something a bit more relevant?
Why don't you have a seat right over there?

Don't turn a blind eye!
Help stop Bitcoin perverts!

Seriously tho, why are Bitcoiners such miscreants/sexual deviants?  I'm not judging, just want to understand...

[empowering]

Fuck off.   

Do not tell me what to do.

^ off topic but cool as hell. Better OT post than whatever the hell the NLC multiple personality disordered crew are currently seeking attention with.

Yeah... they should start rolling these things out... that would be some worthwhile infrastructure investment.

Link all of Europe with one, across Russia and from Russia to Alaska down through Canada and across the US, and down into the South Americas, and then maybe another that ties in Asia and the Middle East/Africa.

I have read that if they were to be rolled out en masse they could be cheaper than motorways to build, lets face it, we are most likely going to end up going down this route... so may as well get building.

[NotLambchop]

Fuck off.

Do not tell me what to do.

Simmer down there you rebel...

Wow, I really didn't think they would be going ahead with it so quickly - can't wait!! And thanks for posting empowering, you're one of a few people here that I actually like to read, unlike BrainDeadMcChopFace:

Thank you, tis a pleasure, and I thought worthy of an OT mention.

Times are a changing.

We all bang on about trains and moons... give it 25 years and the trains will be hyperloops and the moon and mars a possible work destination.

Nah, it was a bad idea.  Just admit it already.

Talking of which I am more than curious to see how these guys get on, if they make it off the ground at all, and if so when, if they make it there, and actually manage to make a go of it, if they win the race, and what will follow.

I am not sure about these guys at all, if they know what they are up to.

Time will tell.

It has been suggested by some that it will take another 100 years before we reach Mars... but then people said the same thing about sequencing the human genome halfway through the project when it was only 1% complete.

It could well be that Orion reaches Mars first... or another project we do not even know the name of yet.

Or not at all.

Going to be interesting finding out though.

To keep their schedule they need to order some doohickey(can't remember what it was) from Lockheed Martin within 6 months, and it looks like they won't. Which means the end of the project.

Yes OT. But not if we can get them to accept bitcoins for the tickets

Ha ha yeah.

One thing is for sure I do not think people will be walking around with folded pieces of finely mashed chopped down dead trees, which they keep in folded pieces of cow hide as a form of value exchange for toooo much longer in the grand scheme of things.

Law of accelerating returns = the world is going to (continue) to change rapidly over the next 25 years, we are at a very interesting time in history.

Normally bias will not stop it from happening.

oh , I had not seen/heard that, last I heard that they had another year delay.

Eitherway these are all interesting ideas..

Interesting to think lockheed could take themselves there if they wanted, as no doubt could a few other corps out there... and they will.. soon as the profit model is locked in.

I heard they were taking people to Mars in 2024. Apparently, there was also a contest from whcih 100 people have already been selected, and 2 will be shortlisted finally.

Same company. (I thought?)

Yeah that is another interesting project.. I have been eyeballing developments in that one for quite some time..

Will be interesting to see if economically it is a valid way to launch people off into space.

I know they have come leaps and bounds since the inception of the idea, especially with the material they are developing to act as the "wire tether" to the geo-orbit platform.

Even if this does become a reality, I still think we will have other projects happening ahead of and around this time.

(thanks for the link btw, not seen that article before)
