Sharding is a rabbit hole and orthagonal to the concept/threat of tech companies printing their own global currency.  But I agree it is a deep rabbit hole for Facebook to fall down.

Still, it does indicate that some shareholders in Circle view the firm as less valuable. “{I] reckon it’s a combination of liquidity discount applied to private companies + crypto bear market + Circle getting absolutely killed on write down of acquisitions + bear market volumes,” one U.K.-based crypto hedge funder said. In 2018, Circle acquired crypto exchange Poloniex, which has seen its trading volumes collapse since it was scooped up by the firm. Today, it sees less than $7 million worth of crypto trade hands each day. Meanwhile, Binance sees approximately $520M in 24-hour trading volumes, whereas Coinbase Pro sees $37M in daily trading volumes.

Excellent news.

What a fucking terrifying nightmare though right? Imagine the data they would be getting from you through all of your transactions, anyone that accepted facebooks facecoin would definitely have bots on their page that see how long you check out each item and what not.

like that isn't already happening

What do you guys think of the avatar I made for my ICO?

ICO's are gayer than Rick and Myself, and more lame than Stephen Hawking without his wheel-chair.

I will slap the gay out of both of you and Hawking back to life.

Such a violent inclination that you have there, goldkingcoiner.

Perhaps you have not had any fortuitous trading luck, recently?  No 80x mistakes in your favor?  

You accidentally make nearly 100k once, and....

.........causes you to become inclined towards violent outbursts.  OMG!!!

just relax and listen to the Hat(e) wearers. they prefer to speak to each other alone. posts of non Hat(e) wearers are not much worth to them. at any cost avoid to get their attention by being rude to them. you won't survive.

Hmm. You don't sound much like the Gyrsur I know.

Yep.

Looks like either a sold account or a hacked account.  which one? and for how long?

What's all this about the Canadian exchange making the rounds? They let a single person hold the password to a cold storage. Rumor is the dude faked his death in India and is still moving coins right now as seen on the blockchain. Gotta fucking love crypto.

Meanwhile banks in Kangaroo land are charging advice fees to dead people, despite knowing they are dead.  For years. The judge running the enquiry said of the NAB bank CEO:

“I thought it telling that Mr Thorburn treated all issues of fees for no service as nothing more than carelessness combined with system deficiencies when the total amount to be repaid by NAB and NULIS on this account is likely to be more than $100 million.

“As I put to Mr Thorburn, his proposition was that ‘this money fell into the pocket of NAB accidentally’. Mr Thornburn’s frank, and inevitable response was: ‘I can’t disagree with that … it wasn’t intended to be ours but it became ours.’

“The amounts of money that just ‘fell into the pocket’ of so many large and sophisticated financial entities, the number of times it happened, and the many years over which it happened, show that it cannot be swept aside as no more than bumbling incompetence or the product of poor computer systems.”

Yay After well over a year and a half I have finally got my original account back after it was hacked.
Thanks to Last of the V8s for the reminder that accounts were being restored.
Any chance of a hat xhomer?
I don’t have an avatar and trust to your creative skills.
I also now have some merits I can start sending.
Hooray.

Nice give him a hint or avatar PIC

Maybe a hat with animation? Here is beautiful I offer.

Edit: Happy Chinese New Year everyone !!

 I'm pretty sure MicG is talking about the original not the original.

Which is, of course, a Supreme fork.

Probably you need to clarify your above statement, jbreher.  

I understand that in the past, you have expressed beliefs that attacking bitcoin, even by fork, is merely a free market dynamic, and therefore, if we believe in free markets, then we should embrace such forkening events.  So, are you still caught up on some kind of suggestion that there is some kind of praise that the bitcoin community should be giving towards various attacks upon it that are likely going to continue, including through various forkening mechanisms?    

Jeeze... lighten up dude or dudette.

We went from Phil Collins to You Can't Hurry Love, which is a song that was first performed by the Supremes. IOW, the Collins version was a fork of the Supremes' original.

 I understood... which probably means I am old.

 The weird thing is he has a hat and was wearing it.  Who is hating against non hat wearers?  I even made r0ach a hat.  The hats are free and they're also free from hate.  This aggression will not stand.

I've been interested in PR for the same reasons.

I think Argentina might now have a higher ratio of white people vs taco people, mestizos, black people, etc than the US does.  Their black population is only 9%.  They even have clean public transportation that's not littered with graffiti and level 5 chimpouts 24 hours a day:

I was actually just looking at the statistics yesterday.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Latin_Americans



Also according to Wikipedia:

[the]total White population [in the US] (including White Hispanics and Latinos) being 76.9%

I started researching Uruguay in some more depth. It's temperate, prosperous, and extremely safe. It makes the short list of possible countries to move. Unlike the economically unstable Argentina, Uruguay was able to weather "The Great Recession", while actually achieving some economic growth.

5.0 is pretty standard for a full strength.

But 8 pints is 13.5 bottles.  I would be face down on the floor long before that.

I stick with 1-2 bottles per hour (for normal strength beers). More than that isn't enjoyable.

IOW you continue in the practice of praising bitcoin forks and likely attack vectors on bitcoin through your analogy.  In that regard, there is no need for me to lighten up about your attempt to paint forks as positives, especially given your recent history in supporting the bcash trash... and likely you have not learned in the right direction from your recent support of scams (aka bitcoin attack vectors).

Your inner idiot is loud and proud and on display, JJG. Better rein that back in.

Gyrsur's account was probably taken over after he wore the hat.. in other words very recently... perhaps days?

Huh?  I already admit that I missed the Supreme reference.. I suppose that the capitalization should have given it away... and then your further explanation.. but I missed it.  So how would you propose that I apologize, beyond merely admitting it?    Do you have some boots for me to polish, or kiss?  You want me to all of a sudden, tell you that you are the greatest, even though you have made some pretty strong bcash pumpings in the past that cause legitimate skepticisms of your btc-related substantive motives?

His particular formatting and punctuation is consistent with his previous posts and so is his activity. No taken over. It's him.
