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

[Toxic2040]

So what’s with all the champagne socialists being more libertarian than the libertarians.

Heh, no idea but I have to admit these are interesting data points.

Just wanted to share some hopium:

"End of this week we could have for the first time since this bear market 6 green candles in a row for total crypto Marketcap.
This kind of configuration with short but increasing candles in most cases end with an acceleration with bigger candles, IF 140 B is breached"

Some good posts in this thread I’d like to Merit but am out of sMerit. Nice words by JJG, erre, LFC & others.
This thread is brilliant, some great camaraderie. WO brothers

I was lucky, I got some merits in the Russian locale (usually it's almost unrealistic).
So I will replace you today.  

Finally, I have enough merit to give them to everyone who deserves them.  

[JSRAW]

haha, don't let JJG depress you

There's very few people here with 1000BTC. Even three digits is pretty unusual.

Hey.. I was never trying to depress anyone.  I did state what I believed to be "fuck you" parameters in terms of a framework that anyone could attempt to apply to their own situation in order to attempt to figure out at what level they would believe themselves to have reached such status.. I also wanted to paint "fuck you" status in terms of passive income from an asset, but there are other ways to consider "fuck you" status, too.  

Of course, if anyone wanted to use BTC for either achieving that status or supplementing their assets to achieve such status, then it does not need to ONLY be BTC, either.

The subject of "fuck You" status might be a bit depressing in itself, but it has been an ongoing subject of this thread, even if the subject has been called different things... like "when lambo" and "when moon" etc..etc..

Agreed that you never try to put anyone in the depression with 1k BTC's talk but sometimes people go automatically in that zone. -Human nature- I suppose.

if somehow i will get depressed with this discussion then will talk to my other friends (who owns less BTC than me ) state of mind reset to default again- Human nature-

in his hands!

Only he-she can answer that, but my guess, In Paper wallet  to be more precise.

Have you ever seen any Ukrainian women? 
Look, look at them someday (better personally), I guarantee you won't regret it!

Up 100 BTC in one day 

Is it that lightning network traffic? Or something else?

I was in Boryspil & Kiev in May for the Champions League Final. I saw many hot Ukranian girls. If I didn’t have a gf I would seek out a girl from Eastern Europe, they are VERY sexy.

Total network capacity: The sum of all BTC temporarily "locked" in currently active channels.

yup not bad

What’s he been smoking?

[Last of the V8s]

poor sods all bought at $3. they have to believe

[xhomerx10]

yup not bad

 I would call that Bukovinian attire.  They may be Russian but... you would be more likely to find that pattern in Hungary or Romania imho

Here's a picture of the younger girls.

I don't live in Kiev (when I don't travel) and I know what you're talking about! This is one of the reasons why I am still not leaving this country.

Interesting words on the security of symmetric keys.

Abstract. Traditional brute force attacks designed to break a target symmetric key are slow and inefficient. In this paper we introduce two new methods to reduce the time required to break a randomly selected symmetric encryption key. The first method relies on drawing 1-n random test symmetric keys. Extensive reductions in time can be realized through use of powerful hardware and multi-threaded processing of 1-n random test keys. The second method relies on the gambler’s technique of playing the odds to win. This method determines the odds of a target symmetric key containing identical byte sequences that are equal to 0. This will further reduce the time required to break a target symmetric key.

The following assumptions have been made about readers of this paper:

    Understands binary logic
    Understands that lower bits clear when a higher bit is set
    Understands that symmetric keys are made up of random or pseudo-random bytes
    Understands that lower key bytes will clear when higher bits cross byte boundaries

5. Conclusion

The effective strength of AES was theoretically compromised when it was first evaluated, and efforts to theoretically break AES have not abated since that time. While it has not been proven that AES has been compromised, we know it is possible to greatly reduce the complexity of breaking symmetric keys. We have proven that large reductions in complexity are possible, where each bit reduction halves total complexity. Like other paradigm-altering concepts, our solutions are simple, which may indicate they are already in use today.

Network communications rely on AES to encrypt and decrypt traffic through secure web sites, banking applications, online payments, and communications between computers (14)(15). The adoption of AES has greatly accelerated since Intel incorporated AES-NI into all of their CPU's. AES-128 bit keys may be broken using the methods outlined in this paper. AES-192 and AES-256 keys may prove secure for now, but will not remain secure in the future.

Software can be developed to distribute computing load across many processor cores and computers providing an opportunity to break symmetric keys using 1-n computers with 1-n cores. Processing time can be leased on cloud servers, super computers, and quantum computers. CPU's in future will be more powerful, and will support more cores and threads per core. Video graphics cards will be more powerful, and will support more CUDA threads. Memory and storage will increase in capacity, and decrease in relative cost.

While we believe that AES-192 and AES-256 remain secure to use, the size of symmetric keys must eventually be increased. While it may prove difficult to switch technology to more secure forms of symmetric encryption, secure encryption solutions are available that will help smooth the transition.

I'm sure you're wrong, buddy. The colors are traditional. But I also know that Hungary and Romania have similar national costumes.

Every Thursday, we could scoot around on our jet-skis-made-up-as-mock-pirate-ships, and Nerf-Rocket the shit out of JJG's island.
............ I mean, I can dare to dream, right ?

Remember what happened to Snowball in Animal Farm?  or Piggy in Lord of the Flies?
Not looking good for JJG in this "dream".

I studied Lord Of The Flies at school for English GCSE, got a B grade lol.
As soon as dat conch got smashed shit started going down
Ahhhh memories of being at school - What a waste of time that was.

OK. See... I have wordy-man on ignore, so I would not normally see his post, but he has a terribly bad attitude about this possible utopia.

He's not thinking of "fun-factor" for defensive purposes on his end.

Can you imagine ? Coconut trebuchets, slings, and cannons, for example, aimed with some level of skill at us scooting Nerf-Gun-Pirates ?

At worst, some dude gets knocked the fuck off his scooter, life-jacket comes into play, and "pirate-squad" immediately tends to any fallen team-mates.

At best, coconuts float on water, so we'll have a bountiful harvest upon retreat.

Perhaps we up our game, and develop jet-skis with some sort of hydrostatic-pressure based mobile cannons, capable of returning the coconuts, softly, back to JJG's island.

Do I have to plan EVERYTHING ?!??

Now I understand JJG's avatar. He is jumping all over the place trying to dodge all the coconuts shot at him from the jetskis.

It's like... a premonition of $100K. Everything makes sense all of a sudden.
