Bitcoin is ours!

Indeed. 

Bitcoin is defined by the code we choose to run. 

As a btc user, I never had the opportunity to chose which code I was going to use.

Did you threw dice to construct the URL of your wallet software?

v0.12 bitcoin is being released ... watch and learn what real network uptake looks like.

0.12 is awesome , I have been beta testing for a couple weeks now and have noticed up to +5x syncing with libsecp256k1, the new tools to reduce upload traffic to keep limited nodes from using too much bandwidth are great, mempool limit adjusting is good to keep raspberry pi nodes from crashing,  automated use of TOR, conf conflict detection ,  and more .

I haven't played around with pruned Full node features yet , and that is the next thing to test. 2GB ~full nodes is an amazing option for many people with limited disk space.

Last one I tested ...

Candidate 5 ...

oh good

it works slightly better with a raspberry pi now

sure good that they've got their priorities right

Anyhew... how many of you will dump Bitcoin when the next speculative bubble bursts and we have to rely on adoption to make this turd float?

Using "plug and play" spv or core wallets and trading on centralized exchanges does not make you a "bitcoin user" technically speaking.

So for you someone using electrum and saving his private keys is not a btc user?
What is a btc user then?

He appears to think of a Bitcoin user as a miner, someone who runs a full node, or at least runs some flavor of a core wallet. Do only "kids" run SPV wallets although you can do advanced things like multisig with them, and Satoshi invented the SPV wallet concept for Bitcoin users to use?

I think it's important to be aware of the fact that hdbuck is a fucking idiot.

People are no longer cashing out on Eth and Bitcoin still going up aggressively... general sentiment bullish.

Getting rid of physical cash ongoing ... to prepare for negative interest rates and more control of your assets.

Bills killed -
500 bill
1000 bill
5000 bill
10,000 bill

Next target to kill -

100 dollar bill ... all while the dollar keeps dropping in spending power due to inflation. If anything larger bills should be introduced.

For the last 14k years , anonymous currency has been the norm and an essential and important right for privacy and autonomy. They are trying to take this away and further enslave everyone.

We're probably on our way for a royal whopping rally.

Too bad Bitcoin will have to remain a tool for speculators for the next couple of years. If we're lucky.

Ok thanks guys, I didn't really understand in what I was not a btc user but everything is much more clear right now ^^

[xslugx]

this bitcoin rise the last days looks realy interesting.
for me it looks like the beginning of bigger rises.
would not surprise me if we are more high end of this week.

Seems like it's mostly due to Chinese fiat decrease in value, so it's solid but shouldn't go too far!

Burger King (Arnhem, The Netherlands) accepts Bitcoin payments! To celebrate the 100-retailer milestone, a mystery event will be held at Burger King Arnhem tomorrow evening.

I dont live near Arnhem but it's worth the trip to buy a hamburger menu with Bitcoin

Yes listen to the trolls and forkers here, they surely know what they are talking about.

Bitcoin's point is to remove the middleman, to be your own bank, hence spv, or exchanges are not a technically sound practice within the bitcoin sphere.

Just like using facebook and giving up all your information to Google et al. does not make you a sane internet user.

So technically, bitcoin has, at most *less than 5,000 Correction: about 6,000 users, due to recent explosive growth of Classic!*: because that's how many full nodes there are, and some (*gasp*) run more than one node

[BlindMayorBitcorn]

We should try to curb adoption early. Too many users not running full core nodes weakens the system. Like parasites

You're serious?
I mean if you are, then seems like you have a very "elite" perception of cryptocurrencies...
