Yes, but why?

As an exercise to build a model that works, or more mundanely as an exercise to maximize utility in different scenarios - preparing for both UP or DOWN in times of turbulence, as someone would say in many more words.

I see $8900

I see:

quoted roach garbage

Sometimes I feel like quoting you so the ones ignoring you can see funny artistic things...

And that is exactly how you too get on the list!  Congrats!  Buh bye.

JJG, why the personal attacks here?

I speculate that JJG imagines themself to be the mostest specialest importantest poster in all of Bitcoindom. Perhaps merely marking territory?

1stly) JJG is not plural.    

2ndly) ascribing a self aggrandizing self-assessment seems a form of irrelevant personal attack

3rdly) Marking territory, me?   I thought that I was merely engaging in a back and forth discussion... Surely, I will concede that my back and forth devolved in a bit more of a personality assessment of Rosewater than perhaps necessary, but Rosewater is also bringing some of this on  himself/herself, too.  Further, my assessment  in that earlier post, namely juxtaposing the ideas of toothless and spineless, was meant to communicate about internet sensitivities - all be it, concededly, my post did devolve in a kind of personal way, too.

TLDR:  Shit happens.

See, jbreher? JJG is saying sorry in his slightly convoluted way, but to Jimbo and Rosewater, who don't seem to be too hurt or bothered anyway - not to you. You just keep on blurting out that nutjob bigblocker nonsense, so he just can't help not giving a ratt's ass. Nor can I. It's just that I try to keep it civil. We need another 4MB right now as we need a hole in our head, to quote a dead legend.

Now if you could just be nicer to each other, well that would be great.
(insert meme, I can't be bothered).

Like, say, two esteemed colleagues in ladder practices - it wasn't named the 2J-ladder by chance.

Then, soon we could have a nice Easter barbecue (with veggie options and all), and the world would be a better place.

Go figure.

$9k incoming?  What a weekend this would be for a BTC pump.

A big thanks to the political elite of the world, for continuing to give bitcoin a raison d'etre.

Are you going to support Bitcoin Cash Classic?

[jojo69]

Torque must be the new Mat the Cat claiming that bitcoin is somehow a good buy if the system is about to implode.  Bitcoin is a speculative pump and dump that will perish with everything else in a liquidity crunch and not even close to a safety asset. The only good buy in that circumstance if you believe the end is nigh is the base of Exter's Pyramid aka silver and gold.

Bitcoin is showing strength as the market has moved beyond $8.9k and seems intent on climbing higher. I expect consolidation down to $8.6k over the next few hours and then a possible push to $9.3k and perhaps beyond.

Roger Ver announced Bitcoin.com wallet will only hold bcash lol.

Are they really still going? Do they have anything planned to go against LN? I don't see how they are going to even pretend to be relevant after that.

The only way LN works for mass adoption is like this, but that was the plan all along.  LN is a trojan horse.

I would care about your nonsensical rambling if you properly asserted that literally anybody can open hubs, while hardly anyone can open a bank.

That's not true at all.  The variable of liquidity alone forces it into a TBTF mega-bank model.  Goldman Sachs and friends will also lobby for the govt to impose all the same enormous compliance hurdles, fees, AML/KYC, etc as opening a regular bank.

A plunge at the 200 daily MA was always likely. If it pushes above it this time things should get more interesting. Right now it's pretty much touch and go I'd say.

Bitcoin is dead (Spoiler: hashrate more than doubled in just three months. Wow.)

https://blockchain.info/charts/hash-rate?timespan=all

Does anyone know what electricity costs are at the moment for big minigpools ?

Sometime ago I read about 3000 USD per BTC

But when the hashrate doubled so must electricity costs ;-)
