Non-mining nodes count for nothing /s
That's the underlying assumption for bcashers and other big blocker nutjobs(TM). Someone could tell them to "get the fuck out of here with...(TM)" Oops, someone told them already! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Hope to see you soon then! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Maybe you’ve all stopped bitch slapping each other by then.
Don't count on it. Slapping, trolling and flaming is an integral part of WO reality. Filtering helps.

Would love to hear about some of these cheap, large hard drive VPSs out there though if someone wants to share.
Not cheap, but OVH let's you add up to 500 GB of space? Get their cheapest VPS for under $5 a month then add $0.06/month/GB. I haven't tried it yet though, someone else would have to chime in.

jbreher the BCash lover wants to go on and on about how Bitcoin fungibility is somehow "compromised" with SegWit. But on this BCash compromise (ie. complete failure)? Dead silence. Crickets.

No, Bitcoin Won't Use Up All The World's EnergyBitcoin using too much energy is thus pure FUD as it originates in the sectors that will lose more or be disrupted most by the blockchain, the latest being the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), a core piece of the global banking infrastructure. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies also potentially replace gold as an international asset of last resort and it is said the energy expended raping the earth for the precious gold monetary relic is five times that expended on bitcoin. Even if it was a 1:1, the replacement of gold by bitcoin would surely be an environmental good. https://www.forbes.com/sites/investor/2018/06/18/no-bitcoin-wont-use-up-all-the-worlds-energy/ Interesting point here. I was wondering how much the current bank system demands in terms of energy consumption. It's true that the bank system offers a lot of services but do we really need all this stuff? Considering ATMs, servers, offices, premises and so on, I would say running the Bitcoin system is not that bad. It's also interesting the fact associated with the environmental exploitation of metals that are linked with the old system. I wouldn't say Bitcoin system is the final solution to energy problems but, c'mon, the current money system definitely isn't more efficient than the crypto's one. Environmentalists point the finger against Bitcoin while they still use and benefit from the bank system. I mean, the real problem lays at the base, certainly not at the blockchain technology.

but at the same time, he doesn't need our BTC since he seems to have more than we do, and he's got nothing for sale that we could pay in BTC.
Well, if that BTC-denominated digital music distributor is still in business, you can still by a copy of my CD for 1.2 BTC. I'd even accept 1.2 Segwit coins for a copy. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Aren't you undermining your own argument when you are seeming to give the EXACT same value to legacy BTC and segwit tainted coins? Would you like to specify (or correct yourself) further here, jbear? Nope. If you want to negotiate with me, I'd be willing to send you a CD of my (charting) album for less than 1 BTC - as long as that BTC isn't tainted by Segwit in its past. That's better than 17% discount! Such a deal for you! Could I pirate it for free? Why wouldn't you pay for "The Soundtrack to Your Lives tm"? He's even gonna let you get rid of some of your Segwit coin.

Bitcoin started a divergence with its fair value in March. It is currently listed as having a Price to Earnings equivalent of 6.78. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Foi68.tinypic.com%2F14vtw8x.jpg&t=670&c=BEavbRrjav4lPw)

We are really in the bottom indeed! i like what's on the inner side loool XD. really looking forward to see Bitcoin back again at it's 10k mark atleast.

I will check it out. One day I read an article about a pro-environment guy (I have nothing against this) claiming the Bitcoin infrastructure would have been eager of energy, a total waste of resources. Totally wrong or at least unfair considering environmental issues existed even before cryptos and everything nowadays runs on the Internet infrastructure.

Bitcoin
Starting from mined precious metals
Metals to produce valuable technology
Technology to utilize energy and peer to peer networks
Networks layered with mathematics to decentralize and share information
Information across vast distances and industry
Bringing real currency - Bitcoin, to the world
Keep your dollar
That was the worst attempt at pumping shitcoins I've ever seen. You probably made the price go down typing that.
