9 up votes on such an idiotic comment that makes no sense.

This is internet. Trolls are new rising stars in this decade.

Bitcoin price is stuck at 225$, I think it goes down to 190-200$ again this week.
If the market indeed see bitcoin prices will stuck or down.
because the issue of Bitcoin XT is still quite influential

Don't worry, the evil XT node IP's are under UDP flood ddos attack. Should quiet those wascally wabbits down so moon launch can commence.

Another mention of the Barclays tale.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3216246/Barclays-UK-high-street-bank-accept-bitcoin.html

This site is the queen of mindless comments. I enjoy getting banned on there regularly.

I cant wait till the day they realize that BTC is legit after all. Those faces the're pulling will be priceless.

The seemingly never ending Chinese strife in early 2014 certainly did the job as did Gox, but maybe they contributed to underlying trends rather than defining them.

The only time good news did it was during the senate hearings. I remember it going up a hundred or so as soon as positive noises started dribbling out.

So is this stress testing thing happening?

The only direct contact anyone has had with CoinWallet about it is ibtimes. All they were told is that it will be in early September. CoinWallet has already demonstrated their ability to perform a spam attack earlier this summer and I don't think they are bluffing about their intention of conducting another soon. I'd estimate the spam attack will start in the next week or two.

UK-based mining service CoinWallet is gearing up to conduct a stress test of the Bitcoin network in early September, which it said will likely render most standard wallet software "worthless" and create "nearly a 30-day backlog".

A CoinWallet representative told IBTimes in an email exchange: "I don't have a set date, but it will be early September. I'm too busy this month to fully devote a large amount of time to executing the 'test'.

It's bizzarre to me that anyone can claim that Bitcoin's PRIMARY utility is as a store of value. A store of value does not lose over 80% of it's market cap in less than 2 years.

Bitcoin needs to scale in order to survive. The people who sell bitcoin don't seem to think so. The people who buy Bitcoin absolutely do. Ever heard the saying "the customer is always right?"

Those were not real "spam attacks" because they used fixed and relatively low fees (0.2 mBTC/kB), so the backlog was easily bypassed by clients who knew what was going on.  

A real spam atttack will try to ajust the fees dynamically so as to keep some significant fraction of the legitimate traffic perpetually out of the blockchain, even while the legitimate clients adjust their fees to try to get through.  

At least that interview gave a plausible explanation for the "stress tests":  Coinwallet.eu has a wallet that, they claim, will correctly compute the fee needed to get through the traffic jams... that they create themseves.  Hum.  

It would be diabolically nice if someone else did a REAL spam attack during their stress test, so as to really test their supersmart wallet (and other supersmart wallets out there).  Their "stress test" may even save the spam attacker some coins...

YAY it's crashing and my long is still open. Thank god it's almost over.  Grin

if you are long, you want them to go up, right?

Nah I've already decided crypto is a shit investment. Maybe long term holding works for some but if you want a day trading experience it's expensive.

I'm not going to pull my money out though. I'd feel shame.
I will give it every chance it to redeem itself. But I'm just ready for it to end. I want it to either die hard or give me my money back ASAP. I will continue to try to "make money" fight the good fight. But really i'm tired of this game. It just looks like a ponzi scheme to me. But before I was playing computer games, at least now i've gotten a new hobby to kill time.

FYI I'm actually invested in Litecoin, I was making it not so bad back with bitcoin, and would have maybe broke even in fact, but I saw litecoin as a shortcut when it went up 4 dollars in a month.

Now Litecoin does exactly what Bitcoin does, & is not going up like it used to. That litecoin boom was and still IS a ponzi scheme. Litecoin is the shitcoin. Don't fuck with it.

But i'm a fighter so It's all or nothing for me. I'll gladly take nothing if only to move on with my life & stop wasting time circling my pathetic investment. lol.

The value to me is having learned quite a bit about economics.
Not everything, but allot more that I used to know. So i've gotten a good education, and I know the cryptocurrency thing is a dud, unless perhaps you're an experienced trader and know the market very well. There is quite a bit to learn and it's a 24/7 job.

Some Chinese turds have my money and they control the market. Chinese are the most devious people on earth. They are cunning. I live in China now, it's a "me first" greed fest from what I can tell, but then my Chinese isn't so good. Otherwise they are not such bad people. But they want money and authority with a passion, it's a nationalistic thing and unconscious passion just like everyone else.

Unless I can somehow reverse this death spiral, and which I will try, but highly doubt, I consider crypto a no-go, unless using it perhaps to transfer money in very tight periods of time.

BUT It's simply not a good investment from a layman's perspective, because it's expensive and complicated to buy, you have to go through 2 or 3 middlemen just to get it, then 2 or 3 middlemen to use it. It also depreciates allot more than it appreciates. If for example I asked my boss to pay me in bitcoin i'd be in bigger straits than with fiat.

It's just a stupid game / experiment to me. I'd never put in money I actually need to survive in this ridiculous ponzi scheme.

But I liked the idea of Bitcoin. But I kinda agree with Snowden. It's obviously flawed.

Death can be a relief. So either way i'm happy.

I await my margin call...  Grin


You are ridiculous and coming off as a bit trollish or at least disingenuous.

You make a whole bunch of unsubstantiated generalizations regarding Bitcoin in general and it's possible future market performance, in part seeming to be based on your bad investment luck and what appears to be considerable deficiencies in your outlook and expectations
