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

I have just checked three things I used to check very often in the past:

- coinatm - Number of Bitcoin ATM's worldwide still raising at good pace.

- difficulty - Surprisingly, after the drop in december it has stopped dropping and even recovered some to around August levels.

- Lightning network - Still growing at a very good pace.

I guess everything is fine.

Apart from the one idea about attempting to spend as many bitcoins as possible before death, there's going to be a lot of this loss of coins through death happening, which is a little bit problematic for intergenerational maintenance and passing down of value... even though the overall loss of coins is bullish on the BTC price due to increased scarcity.

It's a dilemma. Do you relinquish control and permit your funds to be spent without your express permission, or do you maintain that control but recognise that your stash will die with you.

You generally shouldn’t try to control things from beyond the grave (notable exceptions being dependent vulnerables such as children who cannot make their own decisions or pets)

Make up too many stupid rules and it just ends up getting litigated.

Note that Yefi is not referring to what a guy (or gal) does after being dead, but instead trying to figure out what to do before dying, in terms of putting that information out there that could end up being compromised (spent without your permission).

The article was talking about a multi-sig deadman’s switch but ok, my comment was misplaced.

I feel that if you can’t find people in your life that you can trust with your life savings then you need to work on your relationships.  Appreciate those in unstable marriages may disagree but that’s kinda the point.

Trust is never completely absolute (people can even lose their mind and turn into a completely different person - I have unfortunately witnessed that). I chose to give some persons I trust, enough info so that they could recover my stash by working together (plus some effort). If "they" decided to betray me... well, not only I am confident enough that won't happen.... they should also better kill me as part their plan.

It's not that much money anyways... currently.

Anyways, if JJG doesn't trust some else enough... then I guess that he has no reason to leave anything to anyone. So no problem there.

O.k.  Even though I was not specifically referring to any fact that I might not trust someone else, that angle of inference of trust was raised by yefi, and I don't even think that he was referring to anyone specifically, only as a general concept (or possible motivating factor).  Now, that we have elaborated on the trust factor a bit, I can recognize how that could be a factor for a lot of people, yet I surmise that the more common issue revolves around mere organizing the matters and putting them in one place and just figuring out ways that the information might not be compromised, and it is not merely trust, but having that information out there could cause issues regarding the information getting into the wrong hands whether willful, negligent or accidental. 

In other words, my initial hypothesis was that a lot of coins are likely going to get lost because of deaths, and could be due to lack of organization or due to some of the lack of trust issues that came up subsequently.

Is there some kind of utility in retweeting (recirculating) such nonsense?

Yeah, of course.

Everything is just fine right now.

It’s a joke.  Pick the wrong metric and get a nonsense result.  

To be fair, you probably need to be a native English speaker to know that it is a joke because the nuance of the wording “that is a lot of coins” is a bit hidden. Which makes it funnier because it is pretending to be serious. But yeah.

Hmm.

They are deleting my giant green dildo from Satoshis.place.

I think this calls for something drastic.

Now what text do I include in the next incarnation I upload.

Hmm...

* BobLawblaw goes off to play in Pootyshoop

Can't we club together for a Gay Niggers From Outer Space FULL PAGE takeover of Satoshis.place?  I am in - you bought the beers, time for the thread to payback and have a little fun. Let's blitz it.

I see he did it.. and I already defaced it.

I *will* pitch in. But only via lightning.

Talk to me.

How is your morning, Gentlemen ?

All is well from 30km east of Carolina.



Only worry today is finding a sports bar where the wife can watch the super bowl. We'll watch it again when we get back home. For accordingly experience hath shewn that the super bowl in PR is accompanied by local commercials, rather than the creativity fest shown back on the mainland.

Imagine that... watching TV for the ads. Whatta life.

Jbreher, are you scouting it out for residency?

In a word, yes.

I don't know how productive the trip will be. I've never before scouted an area for residency. But the special cap gains treatment demand investigation. Perhaps most importantly during a down market.

One week here on the east side, next week on the west side. We shall see what we shall see.

For the time being, yo soy Boricua!

[jbreher]

shitcoins... by the way who is selling Merits? I nearly running out of sMerits.

Never selling... never sell!

I defaced it again... but it was  good cause!

Post Superbowl LIII report. Patriots win again over the Rams 13-3 in a defensive battle with the 16 points combined setting the record for lowest in history . While perhaps not to everyones taste, I thought it was still a pretty good smash mouth kinda game as both teams defenses put forth heroic efforts.

The bitcoin market has kinda reflected that...low scoring, not a lot of action and that equals a small spinning top and low volume as we begin a new week of trading.

Stella ad superbowl feat Dude

we'd seen this tho?

Disappointing. Of course, there is something about Sarah Jessica Parker that still makes her look attractive*, despite being a godddamn horse-face for the last twenny years. But the Dude reference is well-nigh shark jumping.

I'm drinking my first white russian in years in order to commiserate. Half and half, and freekin vanilla Kahlua, but one must do what one must do. It's all I have on hand.

Let Bridges and Parker share a communal casket.

Make a goddamned plan. You don't know when you're gonna kick off. You don't want your loved ones thinking you're a first-class douche for seeing the crypto revolution but being unable to handle simple succession planning.
