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

Wot?

Adam is fired??

Firing seems a bit much.

On the other hand, some of his posts (maybe up to 10% of them or so) were getting a bit crazy in terms of spreading fucd in relation to achieving Bitcoin consensus.

Who's gonna make the weekly polls, now?

Maybe the rumor is not true?

Buddy, You have to know that you're stupid, right? I mean you sort of recognize those patient tolerant looks you get from people you know to be smart. Deep down you know you just don't have the cognitive horsepower. You try to tell yourself that your feels are just as important as those smartypant's thinks and in truth maybe they are, but they're not the same thing, are they?  I don't have a problem with stupid people. I work with stupid people everyday and we usually get along fine. Nobody at the firestation is trying to write a white paper critical of string theory. The problem I have is with stupid people who don't know they're stupid. These are the truly dangerous people who vote for sociopaths and give all sorts of terrible advice.

Actually, this is one of the dummiest posts that I ever read.

I am wondering what, in regards to my above post, sparked your post to proclaim thou art more smarter?

In essence, I am in no competition regarding smartiness.

Generally, I agree with you about the annoyance of people who attempt to go beyond their competence, but overall, I tend to have a pretty high tolerance of differences.

I have a practice in which I attempt NOT to give any advice to anyone except to the extent that they may be asking me, and even if asked, I tend to be reserved with my dolling out advice.  Accordingly, I am of the perception that each person needs to choose his/her own path.

Just tell me you know how dumb you are so I can relax and feel better, because otherwise I'm afraid you may be a threat to yourself and others.  or don't even tell me. Why should you care if I feel better? Just be honest with yourself. It's not the end of the world. everybody has limitations. You're probably nice to your family and kind to animals. It's not your fault that you can't process information very well, recognize patterns or apply logic to premises to gain a valid conclusion.

Is there any substance to your post?

It hurts my brain to follow your muddled disorganized thought processes whenever I read your writing. I can do it, but i just don't enjoy it.

It's your choice regarding which posts you choose to read.  Personally, I tend to not read posts that I do not enjoy.

I have to tell most of my brain to do something else when I do it. it's like watching a Shakespeare performance by a stutterer or listening to a tone deaf person sing.

Well, at least you have some strategies that may be helpful to you regarding this practice of yours.

I'm sure you're good at something, just not at thinking. Find that thing and do it.

I agree with you.  Most people have some things that they are better at than others.  Some people can learn, and get better, and other people are only going to become so good at any thing that they attempt.  There are also people who lack focus, and never really get too good at anything.

I am pretty good (above average) at a few things. Sometimes I do those things that I am good at, and other times, I attempt to learn new things.

What I am trying to say is that you have a tragic inability to understand the effect you have on people who have the misfortune of your company.  I am not attempting to be substantive because I know that it is futile.  You're too dumb to even know how dumb you are. It's not that you are unconvinced of your lack of intelligence. It's that you are unconvincible. It's like you've turned being a moron into a superpower. It's vexing. In a less civilized society this could perhaps be resolved with blunt force trauma to your cranium, but all we can do is suffer your existence.

You're the real world equivalent of Scrappy Doo.

There you go again using the royal "we."  You seem to think that there is some kind of consensus in your little brain, merely because you think something.  For some reason you are resentful because I publicly (and with good reasons) solicited you to be either banned or suspended from posting due to your apparent trolling, repetition, exaggerations, FUCD spreading, etc, and you have run out of arguments, and you are resorting to baloney personal attacks that have no merit at all...


maybe you have nothing better to do, because chartbuddy has disappeared?

Hopefully, I am not sinking to your low and pathetic level by even entertaining you in your nonsense.  In other words: Go fuck yourself.     

Consensus only matters if agreement is required. I am not attempting to persuade you. I am informing you that smart people already know that you're not one of us. There is universal consensus among the people who know that you are a moron that you are a moron. It's not obvious to everybody, but it is obvious to smart people. It may even be apparent to some dumb people, but for some inexplicable reason it is not apparent or even detectable to you.

It's not some subjective thing like whether you have good taste in clothing or literature. It's an objective fact  that you are a dullard. a numbskull. a person lacking full mental ability, the knowledge of that handicap, and the ability to ever acquire that knowledge. 

Imagine a baby born blind who grew up refusing to believe that such a thing as sight even existed. That's you, Pal. What can even be done with a person like that?

ETH market cap just lost 100 million.  But no rise in btc?

Le me 'splain.
The same fuckin' bitcoins that startid the pump has continued the pump. There ain't no new moneys, get it? and the best part, it's the same fuckin bitcoin that was given to them in the ipo. Free money to pump their worthless fuckin' shit.
BRILLIANT.

Nobody can ever call Vitalik anything other than brilliant. He's a bona fide genius.

I saw him speak at Decentral in Toronto back in January 2014, on the eve of the ETH IPO.. He was brilliant and almost had me convinced that giving him bitcoins for ethers would have been a great deal.

I looked into ETH, read the white paper and decided that while the concept of smart contracts and a decentralized P2P programming platform were ground-breaking, and the "ASIC-proof" mining algorith was impressive, something just didn't smell right about the business model.

I took a pass on the IPO. Needless to say, during these last few weeks I've come to question that decision as the price soared. I've always thought that Ethereum has great promise and it was only the way they marketed it that made me skeptical. Maybe I'll still consider buying some ethers once the inevitable crash occurs.

Well, he became a millionaire spinning his bullshit, so yeah, I'd say he's brilliant. That thing you smelled, btw, was bullshit.

Yes, it should be pretty obvious to everyone that you are not attempting to persuade me.

You are using the royal we, and describing the situation as some kind of "we" because you are attempting to imply some kind of authority.. that is really ridiculous.. if this were intended as any kind of meaningful or substantive interaction (which you have already admitted that you are not attempting).  In other words, you are merely trolling, and attempting to raise irrelevant topics (even if hypothetically you were substantively correct).

He certainly knows how to spread technobabble thick. I've read his white papers since his "Second Bitcoin" one first Ethereum White paper. I can't find the earliest version. He takes a long time to make a point and you're not even sure if it is. He is not eloquent because he doesn't really know what he's talking about. I suggested that gas is a protocol level fee market, which is what I've advocated for years, but he said no it is a fee cost, but you can figure out the market. Potato potato. IOW he spins everything to make an argument even when there isn't one. He's smart, but he seems to prefer to make money over a useful system. So he made an OS out of Bitcoin. People have been writing systems for decades. He still thinks PoS is a good idea ffs.

Yeah, Ethereum devs can spend more time skiing in the Alps now. No more crying about the 9M they "lost" when they sucked the value out of the bitcoins raised in their IPO.

Yep there is that........this could make paycoin and gaw look like amateur hour as far as 'scams' ...bigger faster stronger...tata ho (old enb mmorpg aside)

(then on the other hand had a buddy talk me into 1 btc into the lisk ico ...sheesh......at least I could have put it in a paper wallet and had a nice 1 btc bonfire likely)

silly hairless human primates..tossing 'poo' ..what does a person expect (no wonder the rest of the universe imho avoids us at all costs..we are like the hillbilly relatives )

Full marks for that reference   I had been thinking exactly the same thing.

I am reminded of the joke about two bald men fighting over a comb; in this case its two arrogant fools fighting over who has the least self-awareness.

[mmitech]

The Bitcoin cult is so butt hurt over Ethereum, we all agree that  the price is forming an obvious bubble, but anyone trying to convince me that Bitcoin is superior to Ethereum is either an ignorant or didn't spend enough time to study what Ethereum is and/or what it can do. What a shame, instead of embracing a great innovation, Bitcoiners are swimming in denial and delusion....


Disclaimer: I don't own any Ethers nor BTC, won't buy Ethereum because it is an obvious bubble and won't buy Bitcoin until I see actual development regarding the latest issues.

So it is "the latest issues" that have prevented you from buying bitcoin this whole time?

 

Hopefully they clear up the latest issues so we can be so privileged to have some of your precious fiat.

[Morecoin Freeman]

If my understanding is correct, bitcoin and ETH are something vastly different.
ETH can't be superior because its purpose is different. Bitcoin is not even attempting to do what ETH does.

Also we are in need of more commercial breaks in here.

You're understanding is perfectly correct. But nobody understands it. Thousands of idiots own ETH without even understanding what it is and what is its purpose...

This is why btc can't lose to ETH, simply because it doesn't fight it. It's like claiming a fork is better than a knife. They're too different to be even compared.

[becoin]

Not true. Rootstock is doing it better because it is using the safest blockchain on this planet - the bitcoin blockchain.

Bitcoin is the swiss knife in the crypto world. It can be used to fit all your needs.

Oh? You can seal a contract with btc? Then please what can you say you lend me 50btc and we seal the contract through btc?
