No whale wants to be the one who breaks $4K just to see the rest don't follow or dump on him at 4.1-4.2. I wonder if the price will just keep slowly raising until $4K simply gets crossed without a "pump". 4.2-4.3 will be a very hard nut to crack. Better to arrive there when ready, not before. |

I'm not trying to be mr psuedobadass,
Yes, you are.  How do Elton John glasses tone down the flamboyance?
How do you figure, Elton John? I know Elton John wore circular, but did he wear technical gadget nerdy, too? all eccentric flamboyant sunglasses=elton John. It should be o.k. My earlier hat (besides the transparent background upgrade) was one of the first batch of hats, and so very old school.. and perhaps Beta version. I was actually getting somewhat envious of several of the nexgen 3d hat avatars that were coming out for other members, and so I appreciate this 3D upgrade. I already uploaded the new hat image more than 10 minutes ago, but so far, it is not changing to the new one... I will just wait a bit longer, before I become too excited. I didn't have Elton John in mind while accessorizing this hat but I would like to point out that Ozzy Osbourne, John Lennon, Steve Jobs and Mahatma Ghandi are also associated with round glasses. At any rate, I was going for a high-tech, industrial steampunk look. Those glasses are available for €300 online1 if you like them. 1 not an affiliate link

Still struggling to break through $4,000. I was expecting a concerted effort by major players to get us past $4,000 this weekend. I guess there’s still time but it really is acting as a strong resistance.

There's no point in concerting an effort now to break $4k when the hardest resistance is a bit higher (4.3). One step at a time. |

Sometimes I post as if I knew anything, when I don't. And yes, $4k is for sure a psychological resistance, but one that we have crossed a few times just to cross it back lower. 4.3K would probably be different, or at least, would establish $4K as lowest dip before rebounding. Again, I am just speculating. I don't even know if we are gonna cross $4K anytime soon, even if it seems the most probable outcome. |

No, really, I appreciate they being innovators at including that feature for mainstream adoption. Every *Android* user that can afford to get one, should. |

Anybody here getting one? But what do you do about your private keys if you lose your phone? According to the T&Cs, the private keys stored in the S10’s Keystore are backed up in a personal account provided by Samsung. If the phone is lost or stolen, users can access the device and delete the private key through its Find My Mobile service. Further, if a private key is accidentally deleted, users can restore it via the service. Centralizing key storage in this way is bound to raise questions about security and it remains to be seen what would happen if someone gained access to your Find My Mobile service and if Samsung might provide further protections. ....... In other words, keys are stored in a cloud that potentially can be hacked. I wouldn't use it as a replacement of a HW of course. May be just for micro payments. Anyway, this is good news in terms of mass adoption. Next step is to be able to buy directly in Google Play or Apple Store with Bitcoins and ETH. |

The other day when JJG advocated for glassed on Rocket Racoon it must have planted a subliminal suggestion in my mind... or something. Anyway, whatever it was manifested itself tonight in the form of an upgrade.  Avatar-sized  If you like. It changes the nuance of the avatar a bit.. kind of tones down the flamboyant and causes a kind of more technically nerdy... ... O.k... sure... I will try it out for a while... and see if it feels comfortable. Thanks, xhomer. What a thoroughly graceless response. Just you wait till Thursday. edit i see you went banging on about it a bit further on. still, grace-less You go girl!!!!! |

^ If you can afford a $1K phone you sure can store on it $1K. If the cloud was hacked you would probably be compensated. It would be shitshow not only for Samsung but for us. That being said, the wallet probably has additional encryption layers so even if you get access to the backup you still can't access the plaintext of it. And even if they don't have that right now (remember they are innovating here) that's something that could be added later.
I would not store my whole stash there. Same as I wouldn't go to the bank withdraw all my fiat and carry it on my pocket wallet.
I don't see any problem in storing any amount between $50 to $1K, depending on your needs. Maybe even way more if you are fucking rich. Just an amount you could afford to lose without jumping off a bridge.
It's great news no matter what. An amazing milestone for mainstream adoption.
