Dollar index value has generally been weaker for this year despite Federal reserve raising rates.  The real threat would be if they reversed QE or if government closed the deficit but until then I see open inflation and dollar weakness.

U.S. economy looks like a near dead stop despite the Fed hiking rates:

Market cap down from 115 to 80 billion.

Buy the bottom.

DIE ETHEREUM DIEEE!!!

If the sort of dystopian, hyper-inflationary future that gold bugs predict actually happens, it seems likely to me that there will be jackbooted thugs kicking down their doors to take their gold. This has happened before, even in the US.

If they want to steal my bitcoins, they'd better be able to crack SHA-256.

Or crack your knees with a hammer until you give them your private key

Such an old chestnut - which was resolved approximately 3 decades ago when the first duress password system was designed.

you change topic name guys ?

BTW its a long time many people want btc to slow down, why are you so afraid if it happen ?

maybe it will dip to 1200-1400$, that's a good price. don't panic. let them panic and buy USDT.

https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@r0achtheunsavory/the-r0ach-report-18-the-great-pow-lie

I am touched.

You say that cryptocurrency does not improve on metals in any way?

I shall make you a deal- if you can send me 1 Ounce of Gold to arrive to me in the next hour- I shall pay you  $10,000 (because thats how much I loves me some gold)  for it in Bitcoin which should likewise arrive within the hour? Sounds like a fair deal to me.

By the way I am on the motorway right now - on the way to the train station, on the way to the airport...


GO!


(ps It was precious metals that got me into trading, investing, and the concepts of sound money in the first place - many moons before cryptocurrency)


(pps I could always pay you in Steem if you prefer that?)

It looks like the big altcoin crypto bubble is bursting on all frontiers currently:

• Altcoins crashing in Bitcoin ratio

• GPU mining rewards decreased by 75%

• Poloniex Bitcoin lending market down to a wooping 0.03%/day when it was 0.7% at some point

As an altcoin gpu miner I've felt that in my flesh. But as a Bitcoin fanatic and long term believer I only mine ETC to exchange for Bitcoin and increase my stash, thus this reward decrease is actually being excellent to me, as we got from May to June an outstandingly increase in mining competition that dried GPU stores off. Roger Ver's shameful news outlet reported a mass of unemployed in many eastern-European countries were gpu-mining to complement their incomes, and that made things more difficult for those who were previously mining. Now that it is not profitable anymore (at least for those who aim on mining to sell and earn Fiat), alts gpu mining is back for those who see as a good investment to change their electricity bill for Bitcoins. Or buy Bitcoins with their electricity bill, whatever way you want to see it.

https://np.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/6mmp49/new_release_of_bitcoin_abc_0142_rbitcoinabc/

This release include various changes. The most notable is a difficulty adjustment algorithm that decrease the difficulty in case hashrate gets very low. We obviously which that this feature won't be used, and it won't kick in if hashrate stay above 8% of the global hashrate. However, this ensure that this chain will survive no matter what, as long as someone think it is valuable.

Maybe if you have some old ASICs, they can be useful again ...

How long for this code to be implemented?

Maybe in the winter, but not now, it's already too hot!

It is already here:

It is on the links that I've put before.

I shall make you a deal- if you can send me 1 Ounce of Gold to arrive to me in the next hour- I shall pay you  $10,000 (because thats how much I loves me some gold)  for it in Bitcoin which should likewise arrive within the hour? Sounds like a fair deal to me.

It's not a valid argument.  It's like complaing about the speed of light existing, while if it did not exist, everything would happen at the same time.  That friction is required for anything to exist at all and also for things like decentralization to exist.  Reducing friction to zero is not actually a beneficial trait, especialy when doing so requires you to change from sound money to unsound money.  It's a pro-hyper globalization argument when globalization just leads to collapse.  

It's like Joseph Tainter says, "collapse is rapid simplification on a mass scale".  Such a thing can only happen if all systems are interconnected under globalization.  It's necessary to buffer systems off from one another induced by friction to avoid said outcome.

Wow, there are over 20K BTC available for loan offers on Polio. Guess few want to go long on bullshit.

August 1st will be a fun date it's basically the cliffhanger and season finale we have all been waiting for drama wise.
Since we have been on a rerun of lets do something for the last couple months and before that 2016 then saw the limit and backlogs increasing txt fees and people finally going zomg its a happening lets do something now.
Volcanos will rise up during the month of August.
Let the popcorn be eaten.

Haven't you forgotten there just about the inherent latent repulsion forces sourced by the Nash equilibrium in Satoshi-PoW, that causing a big price drop if 'the centralization' (needs to be defined) is unveiled to the masses > trust is lost?

This is not working in metals ...
