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

[belmonty]

Christ....I remember when this thread was about walls, trading, speculation and general 'doom' or 'moon'...now its just page after page of people talking incomprehensible blockchain bollox and petty politics.

There has always been some sort of crisis threatening the very existence of BTC, get used to it.

So, all the bed-wetters getting worked up about this: you do realise there are entire sections of this site devoted to these topics.  Perhaps you could all fuck off to those pages and stop boring everyone me to tears with your endless segwit, hardfork fuckwittery.

I hoped to find out a reason for the $6 price increase in this thread, and I hoped people would be discussing it. Instead I found a wall of posts about segwit combined with acronyms like hf and sf. Once upon a time people would have discussed whether the bottom of this dump was in, but now it's all block size debates.

I like the convenience of finding all my Btc news in one thread.  If i want to expand my understanding of any of it I can do so.

As to why Btc went up 1.5%?  Noise, somebody bought a few Btc and it wasn't me.  I am merely hodling until last year's tax burden is settled.

It's less than a quarter of an hour to go until Chinese New Year and I thought that might be influencing the price, but it seems it probably didn't now it's going back down to where it started. Most of the Chinese are probably partying too hard to consider trading Bitcoins or look at the charts.

... let the DDOSing begin now that techignorati who use binaries because they can't build from source are wandering stupidly into the badlands. tally-ho

Oh good, we're coming up to my favorite part of this movie.

[molecular]

It [segwit] also allows elegant scaling solutions to be developed down the road.

Can you explain how? (serious question)

[iCEBREAKER]

And that pretty much sums up your scumbag attitude. I bet you have giftcards for sale too, paid for by stolen credit cards. You are a real asset to the core-devs, a like minded fellow traveler.

Don't blame the messenger.

It's just reality that Bitcoin cannot be DDOSed but Classic can and will be.  The antifragile project deserves to live, the wimpy fork does not.

Better post here while you still can.  I expect your ISP will be nuked from space shortly after you turn on your obnoxious Classic troll node.  

When you phone in to cry to customer service, be sure to tell them you were running a server on your residential connection, and that server effectively painted a giant target on their back(bone).

All that brazen supercilious venom spewed over the last year with potentially nothing to show for haha.

Yes, that's exactly what makes the noisy but supremely ineffectual XT Lolcows such fun to milk.   

Remember last summer, when the brazenly contentious XT fork was supposed to happen in January 2016?  Pepperidge Farm remembers!   

[iCEBREAKER]

look at them Classic nodes springing up! Like mushrooms after an autumn rain

Actually, those classic nodes are more like fungus spreading on the corpses of XT/unlimited nodes.

Scumbag tactics, so you are no better than a scumbag, right? Should we expect anything better from you?

Its just an example of the low-lifes that core devs now associate themselves with.  

How is your plan for removing the need to hold bitcoin to use the Immutable ledger going?

Heh, you cant hold the argument, so its dDos...

"The bitcoin community seems to have a chip on their shoulder," [chairman of the W3C Web Payments community group] Sporny says.

Way to slander our community, poisonous little bankster shill. Gentlemen, can we dox this guy?

Segwit gives the same capacity increase as your hard-fork,

Segwit is accounting fraud. It actually has higher bandwidth demand than a simple blocksize bump of equal effect.

Your post is linguistic and conceptual fraud.  There is nothing "simple" about a contentious hard fork.

Segwit is an elegant solution to numerous extant problems, and the opposite of Classic's hacky, kludgey, hamfisted, simpleton approach.

no one can control bitcoin, no one can control forkers, no one can control ddosers.

The guy tried his best to help fix a problem and was treated as shit for it.

Maybe he should have tried harder to write some actual code.

It doesn't seem like our current conundrum is due to a lack of code.

Oh no, I was rather questioning the image of the industrious guy who tries his best. Seems like he's a slacker to me!

[iCEBREAKER]

Heh, you cant hold the argument, so its dDos...

A successful ddos of Classic demonstrates the validity of arguments of the form "Core is antifragile and deserves to live; Classic is brittle and deserves to die."

Stop blaming the messenger just because you don't like the message.

You can always start your own self-moderated "No Blocksize Discussion Allowed" thread.

Why don't you fuck off to such a greener pasture, and stop adding to amount of whining on this one?

^As idiotic as letting some Vegas casino / bank branch decide the US monetary policy.
Bitcoin protocol has no voting mechanism for hodler of BTC, SFYL

Thats about as intellectual as your arguments get.  Nice Core-Troll.

That's a lot of VanillaIce these last couple of pages. Looks like the bullies are getting nervous.
