In a bull day I have not come here to read about pet food.
You guys are nuts.

On a completely different note, a few weeks ago bitcoin was dead but now...

In a bear day I have not come here to read about yachts.

You guys are definitely nuts.
I wonder what will happen next time I am going to enter the WO

Next bull run, people talk about what helicopter on their yacht’s flight deck.

Maybe it's just the sort of talk that we need in order to help get out of this bear rut?

That was great though. Lols were had.

And during the one after that people will talk about booking their first space rocket ship tourist flight.

That's not thinking big. Planetary inflation is too high. There are zillions of planets in the universe and just 17mn bitcoins....

...Stepping back and looking at longer times frames indicates we are right on the edge of a substantial growth period. My recent frustration with short term price action has made me realize that I am emotionally over invested. Time for a break and to do some sailing. dyor and ymmv. Peace.

Well, last month was not that bad. And the near-term future looks fine, if history repeats. Enjoy your break!

You should never buy a $20k boat which is 20 years old though. That's a death trap.

Ahem. I did that, except it was 40 years old. It is also extremely seaworthy.

Was it wood or fiber?

Wood can be fixed easily. Fiberglass can get fixed too but harder. A 40 year old fiber boat can be extremely dangerous because of osmosis unless it was maintained well during all those years. If the owner checked the levels of osmosis constantly and took precautions, yes, it can survive without any damage. The stuff on the boat will be old too. Sailing clothes, metal pieces, ropes... They all fall apart in time even if you don't use them because of fckn salty air. You'll need to replace them eventually. I'd prefer to get them all new without taking any risks. But that's just me.

A 15 meter boat is Too Damn Big. If you can't handle it on your own, in a stiff breeze, don't even bother. If a 30 footer is too small for your crew, then better to get two boats instead.

See that's what I'm talking about. That sounds like a yes vote for a new thread! It seems like there are a surprising number of people here who are interested in yachts/boats.

Once you get into boating, everybody knows, it is never big enough. You'll always need a bigger boat.

No. This is totally false. Once the boats get to a certain size I would definitely stop thinking about bigger boats and start thinking about spacecraft.

Do you even sail bro? Ropes, equipment... clothes of all the fucking things...? Stuff gets replaced and fixed over time.

Quote the second, what you want is the smallest boat you can tolerate. This is newbie sailing 100.5.

My point is when you buy a used boat,, not just the boat will be used but every thing you mentioned on (and in) it will also be. If you are going to replace these stuff soon, why not get all new in the first place?

Instead of buying an old boat and making it to look like new, just buy the new one.

This is why you LOOK AT THE FUCKING BOAT BEFORE YOU BUY IT. You decide if it is worth the price or not.

Also new boats cost ten times as much. It's like a car, the second you turn it on its value gets cut in half.

Any analysis regarding whether bitcoin is gonna do a long bear market for 1-2 years, or is going to go sideways and/or upwards from here?

It will not be a long Bear market for 1-2 more years. Could we have another "bearish" month or two...yes. Imho, either Bitcoin grows to become a global asset class or something else will replace it that can. By growth I mean reaching and sustaining a value where institutional and sovereign entities have enough self-interest to support it. Once a layer for truly anonymous transactions is developed, tested and deployed for bitcoin, it will go ballistic. I hate to say it as it is so cliche but we are at a critical junction. The balancing act of growing fast enough to retain current users and promote new adoption and not growing so fast as to be perceived as a threat to said entities is a tight-rope walking act of incredible complexity.

My best guess is it will fall somewhere between the orange and yellow lines I have illustrated. Stepping back and looking at longer times frames indicates we are right on the edge of a substantial growth period. My recent frustration with short term price action has made me realize that I am emotionally over invested. Time for a break and to do some sailing. dyor and ymmv. Peace.
   

Does anyone know what the current status of Confidential Transactions is?

You're not thinking big enough. Pay to have a new planet custom built to your specifications. Why buy an existing old one when you can have a new one built exactly the way you want it? You would get even cooler rings than Saturn's with more moons.

Does anyone know what the current status of Confidential Transactions is?

It's basically in the early research phase, but possible within the next five years, maybe.

.... LOOK AT THE FUCKING BOAT BEFORE YOU BUY IT. You decide if it is worth the price or not.

The multibit dev lived on a boat. After reading this post I decided to view any boat at the coldest point of the winter if I ever decide to buy one. What seems great in the summer might be shit in the winter.

MultiBit HQ is a narrowboat moored on a canal in the UK. Costs are minimized ruthlessly. It is really peaceful living on a narrowboat - plenty of time to get work done.

But this time of year it is a bit ridiculous. There is a cold snap in the UK at the moment. Overnight temp last night was -6 Celcius. The boat does have central heating but you don't run it all the time and not overnight (because of electricity and diesel use). So last night I am in my full body sleeping outfit, in a down sleeping bag, under a duvet, with a throw. Warm and toasty but it is a bit chilly cleaning your teeth in the morning when the temp in the bathroom is exactly 0 Celcius.

Like your pet cat, I always find the warmest spot on the boat so am currently typing on my laptop by the big radiator in the lounge. I am just a ball of insulation.

I will be glad when it is spring. I think that is the best time on a boat.
