Is this a joke? You need to pay taxes when it rains in New Jersey?

Is it even allowed to catch rainwater for your own use?  Undecided

https://newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/02/04/rain-tax-likely-to-become-reality-in-new-jersey/#.XGHnBuf1tMg.twitter

overly shrill headlines

Stormwater management is, in fact, a thing.  It does cost actual money, here in the real world.
Insurances and more than 60% of income taxed aren't enough yet? Why?

He is right. We've Lightning now and 300kb blocks is something more than logical!

Please tell me you are joking; it's so hard to detect sarcasm Sad

In the interest of maintaining civility, and playing your scenario out, do you foresee 150kb/150kb == 300kb or 300kb/300kb == 600kb Blocks, accounting for SegWit data ?

No, I'm not joking! Chinese mining cartel is selling every bitcoin they mine to defend bcash price. Lowering blocksize is the ultimate argument of showing them what they do is futile. Plus, it will be a big incentive for Lightning adoption!


I support 300kb blocksize too. Segwit increased the effective blocksize and it's best if that is undone. It won't happen though, and in a way I'm happy that it's so hard to make large changes (even though this one would be positive).

Never sacrifice security for something pitiful like "low fees".

Huh? Segwit is not going to be undone.

You have to get consensus to undo segwit, and recall segwit passed by nearly unanimous consent. 

I doubt that sentiment has changed very much, in terms of undoing segwit. 

It seems that there remains a vast majority of support for segwit that you would have to overcome if you want to undo it... a simple majority would be inadequate.. bitcoin no work like dat...

Lol not undo segwit. But with segwit came an implicit blocksize increase as segwit transactions are discounted. By reducing thel blocksize to 300 kb that effective increase is undone and the previous situation restored.

Fair enough... but segwit is not only about scaling (even though segwit contributes to scaling, like you said).

I know we're supposed to be capitulating. True story bro! Caught a glimpse of the future.
 I met a mid 20's Bitcoiner/robotics engineer out in the wild today. Very interesting chat and I felt the bull stirring again. He believes machines will use a digital currency (likely bitcoin) in the not so distant future once they start to move among us.  Shocked
About a 5-10 year horizon.  

I am fully capitulated. Good thing I still have patience.

Bitcoin self-selects for people with:

* Low time preference
* Long attention span
* Commitment
* Authenticity
* Patience
* Persistence
* Ability to focus
* Ability to go against the mainstream

Bitcoin is a marathon, not a sprint.

(I have it saved and I read it when I'm capitulated like you. Cool)

Mostly speculative equity investing.

"The fund will also hold a small percentage of its value in liquid cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin"

A small percentage of $40M is nothing.

I feel like this is a once in a lifetime chance who missed all those old bitcoin faucets back in the day. There aren't many fork airdrops but I'm really excited about bitcoinhex since its free to claim.

Are you trying to suggest that Craig is making some kind of value contribution to truth in some kind of way?

The guys spouts out so much bullshit, that even if he happens to say some things that are true, who gives a ratt's ass?

There are scam artist and conmen who likely speak more than 90% truth.. that is how the whole practice operates.  You convince people to follow you because a lot of the things that you are saying is true.

However, in the end, the more important part remains that Craig is a narcissistic conman and a scam artist, and the exact percentage of what he says that happens to be true is largely irrelevant to the correct overall conclusion about his character.  There are others in the bitcoin, bcash and crypto space who also clearly and unambiguously fit into the conman and scam artist, and certainly the level of con and scam is going to vary from person to person, whether we are talking about Roger Ver, Jihan Wu, Vitalik Buterin, Vinny Lingham, annunymint, or some other known character in the space.

The morning should start with the right coffee  Wink


Do you personally have one of those kinds of customizable coffee makers too?  or did you go to a coffee shop or find the image on the interwebs?  Mic has access to one of those machines, but no one has yet explained how they work in the real world including if the coffee shops just charge an extra fee for such service or they make those potentially customizable images for free  (like hats, but the hats are surely more understandably done through knowledge, creativity and playing around with photoshop features).

I am afraid dear hodlers, that soon we will have a big problem! No, I am not talking about a crash! I am talking about going above 10K. Last time some of us (like me) didn't sell anything, but what will you do, when we hit 15K-ish zone again? I am just curious (this may be kinda of a new poll), if you have any strategy? Hodl all, sell 1/3, sell 1/2, sell all, or other. I am pumping up myself to hodl everything until I reach the right amount for a nice beach villa, new car and savings equivalent to my salary before my retirement after 20 years.  Hopefully the property will be paid with BTC, so I may not sell BTC at all  Grin So far, I have only one strategy for BTC:


There should be no problem with any strategy that continues to shave off small amounts of Bitcoin all the way up to $20k.. and maybe even considering proceeds from those sales as insurance to buy back on the way back down, if the price goes down.  I use something in the territory of 1% for every 10% price rise, and variations of that can work.

I do recognize a kind of phenomenon that tweaks down could be made around the $20k territory because once we get that close (assuming so), then there becomes a real decently increased likelihood that the price will shoot well past the previous ATH.  30% past?  50% past?  100% past?  There are going to be corrections along the way, but sometimes when the price is shooting up, any person might not be able to figure out when the price is going to pause in its upwards trajectory and even with small sell amounts along the way, feel as if s/he is selling too much because the price just keeps going up... but then likely the same person will thank himself/herself for selling along the way when the price suddenly and unexpectedly stops going up and gets into a 10%, 20%, 50% correction phase that could last several weeks before resuming UP.



but what will you do, when we hit 15K-ish zone again? I am just curious (this may be kinda of a new poll), if you have any strategy? Hodl all, sell 1/3, sell 1/2, sell all, or other.

The baseline doesn't change. Sell X coins every Y increase in price, buy X coins every Y decrease in price. When the bankroll starts getting small, change the buys to X-epsilon.

Of course, this can be modified by bulk sells to fund interesting things. I'm likely to sell a couple percent when it gets to $25k or $50k or somesuch.

But mostly hodl. Always be hodling. You don't want to feel like a chump when it 10x's from your exit point, and you ain't got nothing but a semi-big pile of stinky fiat.

Yes...  Thanks for that jbreher.. You have provided a good and succinct way of describing a sound and prudent long-term BTC guidance strategy that helps any of us to make sure that we are reasonably accumulating BTC and preparing for BTC price volatility that is not only expected but in the territory of inevitable.   Cool
