Looks like you got your purge Bitusher.

I'm getting posts deleted east, west, left and right.

Congratulations!!!

everybody is talking about censorship. You mean here on bitcointalk? Cause I never suffered any! Neither saw it

Censorship, if done properly, does not get noticed by the horde.

Shit, we're down 21 cents. BJA must have finally pulled the trigger and dumped the rest of his stash.

I'm well aware of the Chinese cultural deference to authority. With so much Bitcoin activity in China now, it make it far less attractive as an investment. 

Which is what makes the statements from some Classic supporters so ridiculous, they first want to replace 45 developers from many backgrounds and many different companies with 5 devs from 2-3 companies, than when that fails they threaten to sell their BTC for ETH which is controlled completely by 1 dev ... all because they "distrust authority."  Perhaps the reality has nothing to do with decentralization of development (There always has been multiple implementations with different dev teams) , but a fixation of growing fast and ignoring all concerns along the way.

So the Core devs will quit if they have to work with the same code with 2Mb block size instead of 1Mb?

...the fact that Classic is DOA with the mining and economic majority opposing them. Cheers friend.

You read the letter as a resounding denunciation of Classic and a firm endorsement of Core, interesting.

Upon reading point 3...

In the next 3 weeks, we need the Bitcoin Core developers to work with us and clarify the roadmap with respect to a future hard-fork which includes an increase of the block size.

This is obviously asking Core to do what they have refused to do for a year now, and it gives a deadline.

Let's see if miners will grab the bone they might be thrown. My guess is that it will be a pinky promise for a HF sometime in 2017.

Now, because Core is immune to politics, and will only base decisions on their enabling of future profitability technical superiority... they simply cannot do this. To change Gregory's roadmap is to succumb to political pressure where a mouth breathing majority tramples the sacred rights of the enlightened minority, compromising at all would mean they have been lying all along about that point. Bit of a pickle there. Cheers Friend. 

Let the purge begin! Bitcoin is a settlement tool for central banking, excelsior!

I'm surprised how few people actually understand the letter from a Chinese cultural perspective. Clearly, they give Core a deadline in a face saving way. Superficially, the letter looks like support to Core, while embedded, there's a diktat to include a HF in their roadmap with a deadline of three weeks.

sgbett analyzed the letter and came to the somewhat same conclusion. It is worth reading the whole post, but:

3. In the next 3 weeks, we need the Bitcoin Core developers to work with us and clarify the roadmap with respect to a future hard-fork which includes an increase of the block size. Currently we are in discussions to determine the next best steps. We are as a matter of principle against unduly rushed or controversial hard-forks irrespective of the team proposing and we will not run such code on production systems nor mine any block from that hard-fork. We urge everyone to act rationally and hold off on making any decision to run a contentious hard-fork (Classic/XT or any other).

This is where shit gets real. This is extremely strong language, they specify not only the timescale (3 weeks) but also explicitly state the subject matter (with respect to a future hard-fork which includes an increase of the block size). This could not be any clearer. They want a blocksize and they want a concrete commitment from core within 3 weeks of when that is going to happen. The implications here are twofold, that the timescale had better be satisfactory, and that failure to provide a satisfactory timescale carries and unwritten 'or else' clause "We need" is the key phrase here. Very strong language from the east imho.

Holy crap! Monero just doubled!

   

Oops, wrong thread

Almost 80 BTC traded on that euphoria candle...   All of iCE's hard work is finally paying off! Suckas.

Today, an entry level C class, tomorrow... Pagani. Excelsior!

ETH dump has started?  People going back to btc?

ETH support was absolutely ridiculous yesterday.  Whomever it was has pulled it all, and it's been drifting down all day.

LTC Halvening Pump Dump 2015 ................

[aztecminer]

UPDATE: I now have a 80 coin short in. Want to make it 160? 320? keep pumping, cripplecoiners.

Just dump all of them?  how many you have 600?  more than 1000?  I doubt that you have more than 1000 with your crazy and historical bluffing talk... you sound too desperate, emotional, wrong and whimsical to be able to manage that many coins over a 4 to 5 year period.

that would be great if you could dump, dump, dump in your little fantasy playing all that you like, and in your FUD spreading attempts.

How many can he have when in his world "dump" means "sold 28 coins"?

YEAH, I'M GOING TO TAKE THIS MARKET DOWN WITH MY DUMPS.  ALL 45 COINS, YOU FEEEEEL THAT MARKET?

He seems to have quite a bit of emotional outburst posts, drama and attempts at attention mongering through his nearly 5 year forum history, and there appears to be quite a bit of big talk in various threads which, if he had bet the way he was proposing, he would have lost a whole hell-a-va lot of coins and/or dollars, so we gotta take a lot of BullyJA's assertions with a large grain of salt.. maybe one of those salt blocks that cows lick?   


BJA also seems to describe himself as being smart (or smarter than others) because he identified bitcoin in 2011 and began to participate in bitcoin in 2011, which it is very ironic to be attributing smarts to possible luck and/or coincidence rather than some kind of specific repeatable skill - because merely knowing about something and acting on it, without further details, hardly in itself makes a person smarter than others.

To me, BJA comes off a little bit as having traits of a pathological liar, but it could be just a matter of his various embellishments and his frequent times admitting that he is exaggerating for effects (after he's been called out)... In any event, he may have started out with some version of the truth and some things that actually happened, but then little by little he tweaks the facts and then develops a considerable fictional story around the whole scenario that he has painted himself into describe his circumstances, and may have some difficulties coming clean because he has invested so much into his various embellishments..

that was awe-inspoiring juangee.. you really tore him down good that time! #GimpedCoin

[aztecminer]

from a fundamentals view: bitcoin doesn't scale, it still doesn't scale, which means bitcoin still doesn't scale.

here at BitcoinPure we are have new exciting changes as we develop. ANNOUNCING: Bitcoin2Genuine


that means we have two seperate forks of lightening chain of mega-blocks ready for next tuesdays release!

BitcoinPure
Bitcoin2Genuine


woot woot! miners are already mining our blocks that have a special code in all of the mega-blocks on all lightening chains. assuming we have consensus at the Rubix Cube Meeting next week, BticoinPure + Bitcoin2Geniune will have at least 3/4ths market caps of all the versions of other bitcoin forks..  after the forks are released next week, we expect that 25% hash power of all bitcoin forks will be hasing BitcoinPure and 35% of all hash power will be mining Bitcoin2Genuine ... woot!

A nice warm flood of tripe doesn't even sound that bad, really.

What the fuck, Dude? How the hell am I a pathological liar? If anything, I'm overly candid. I read this article once on how it's basically impossible to communicate with someone who is three standards of deviation lower than you on an IQ test. That's what this has to be. You're too damn stupid to even understand how I think, so you project.

I'm not competing for smarts, and there is a decent chance that you are smarter than me and even smarter than a lot of other posters here.

Actually, no one said that you are not smart; however, I did say that  several times you have asserted that you are smarter than others because you discovered bitcoin before others and began to invest before others, therefore smart......   Maybe I am not smart, but I do find that claim and assertion to be a bit funny in a sort of ironic way?
