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

The weather? Freaking cold. Halfway through one of the mildest Februaries on record, we get a real cold snap, -26C with a windchill of -33. Brrr. Time to put the soup pot on.

That country of yours isn't fit for human habitation. You might as well be on Mars!

At least I'm downtown. It has to be considerably worse in Scarberia. There's a reason they call it Scarboro-ugh. Truth in advertising.

Shhh. I play British Intelligence on the internet.

Checked weather forecast, it said -11C. When I got there it was -32C. I didn't notice before the metal in the car started making popping sounds. Weird stuff starts happening at that temperature.

I've noticed that -32C is the temperature at which the engine oil in my generator freezes solid at my place up the bush. That's when I'm glad I switched to a Honda EU2000i. It's light enough to carry it inside and warm it with the woodstove until it will turn over.

That's why most people who live in the country use a block heater.

It also seems to be the temperature at which the trees start to make cracking noises. I wouldn't want to live in the tropics though. I like how fresh, clean and healthy everything is in the spring. 4 seasons rock.

First Classic block mined.

Because we want to trigger a fork to give bitcoin more capacity for transactions

Oh. Oh my.

Oh. Oh my.

I don't even care who is going to get ahead of all of this civil war as long as everybody else gives finally up and we end the discussion.

Agreed. I must be a Hobbesian. I'd almost rather live under iron rule than perpetual civil war.

Almost.

Oh. Oh my.

You make is sound like that block is >1mb.  It isn't, being a mere ~100kb.

How do you know that block was mined by a RealClassic node, rather than an indistinguishable (until too late) NotClassic one?

Ironically (and self-defeatingly), Gavinistas can only bribe miners with CoreCoins to mine ClassicBlocks until the hard fork occurs, at which time the miners will only accept in-band incentives denominated in CoreCoins, as ClassicCoins are doomed to be orphaned.

Contentious hard froks make me nervous. I just want the madness to end already.

you guise beat it out of them during the bear market ... gonna be a while before moon train days come back, now we just get disaffected sold-out bulls (BJA) and sundry haters and trolls.

[aztecminer]

Fuck me.  It's hard to imagine a worse call.  Well, the market has spoken and the market always gets the last word.

yeah.. that what they do.. ur fukd only cuz u shorted... i see it all the time in pms.. except usually its a call for pms to rise dramatically and then they crash them down .. in this case they are still fukd stuck within a range between 350 and 450 .. my call is right cuz i know how they think, and to discredit me they would have to move outside of the range .. they could go up cuz i aint liquidating anytime soon ... going down is out the question cuz i MIGHT buy ... lol ...  it might be a good call not to buy any more bitcoins anyways . u know pms are still lowballed .. as soon as u buy pms u auto-piss "them" off. .. "they" are fukd there too .

Fuck me.  It's hard to imagine a worse call.  Well, the market has spoken and the market always gets the last word.

I'm glad that you are willing to admit your bad call;  however, I always assert that we can really never know for sure the shortest term price direction unless we happen to be a whale that is able to push it with 10k or more coins  (and/or equivalent in dollars maybe on bitstamp?).

On the other hand, BTC prices had been lingering for so long in the upper $300s after the Hearn fiasco.. and then attempts at pushing it below $350 had really not been going anywhere... at least not yet... and also people seem to be kind of less convinced that there is any real material issue that is dragging down bitcoin as Hearn was arguing.... I mean seeing through the apparent propaganda...

So far this uptrend has not been on very high relative volume (at least from my perspective), so that causes me to believe that it could be put to a halt or reversed with some voluminous dumping (maybe 10k coins would be sufficient?)

That was way more than a 10,000 coin pump. The markets are connected, so pumping on one or two exchanges isn't enough if the others don't follow.  No, the market clearly believes that the miners will be able to convince and/or pressure Core into including a hardfork in the roadmap. I am nearly not so optimistic, but as Keynes said, markets can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.

opposite temperature in Perth Australia, and weird stuff starts happening at high temperatures
