tumbleweed.jpg  Gosh.. never ceases to amaze me how some members can become so damned bored based on a little bit of BTC consolidation. These are exciting times, no? We seem to be in the early stages of a baby BTC bull.... I appreciate that lambie gonna get pissed off because I am continuing to co-opt his silly-ass exaggerated expression

A catastrphic study by IEA: Bitcoin energy use - mined the gapAs the price of bitcoin skyrocketed in 2017, attention turned to the cryptocurrency’s energy and environmental footprint. High-profile news articles reported that electricity use of the bitcoin network had equalled that of medium-sized countries and was on track to consume as much electricity as the United States in 2019 and all of the world’s energy by 2020. A widely reported article in Nature Climate Change warned that Bitcoin emissions alone could push global warming above 2°C.
By 2024, the heat from bitcoin mining would cause the planet's crust to crispen and catch fire, ending all life forms in complete heat death. By 2026, the earth's heat would be so hot that the planet would likely implode and supernova, creating the galaxy's first twin sun solar system born of the artificial negligence and hubris of mankind. Bitcoin will kill us all...very soon.
Tsk tsk...these journalists these days, just can't be bothered to do the extra research and correct their articles. There, fixed it for them.

This one's about more FUD from centralized institutions, this time in the UK... https://www.forbes.com/sites/billybambrough/2019/08/01/bitcoin-has-no-intrinsic-value-as-uk-moves-towards-crypto-ban/#5617b0ad2d27I guess it's hard to steer a boat when it has centuries worth of inertia. They'll come around eventually of course but I don't think it's going to be a particularly smooth ride for us. I particularly like this quote: "Although not a ban, [the U.K.'s FCA warning is] a move in that direction," said Herbert Sim, head of business development from Broctagon Fintech Group. "This lack of enthusiasm is shared by several countries; the U.S. with its scrutiny of libra, and India, who are looking to implement a similar ban on cryptocurrencies which are not state regulated. These movements could end up coming back to bite. The international competition on cryptocurrencies is heating up and there are huge risks in being left behind." The actual quote in the UK bit merely spoke about some parts of the market being unregulated and beyond the scope of the regulators - and urged caution. This is consistent with UK gov't stance and nowhere near talking of a 'Bitcoin ban' - the UK has never to my knowledge ever considered banning Bitcoin and government is quite happy to issue tax advice about it and allow pension funds to offer (limited) derivative products based upon crypto - provided risk advice is given. As you said - FUD indeed! Billy Bambrough constantly engages in shameless FUD by writing clickbait articles trying to mislead readers that crypto is doomed. This is par for the course for him.

Not really sure why $10,000 is acting like hot coals. It’s not a magic fucking pot of gold, why are people treating it as so?
HODL !
We have always had various price sticking points in BTC... ask Torque. Doesn't seem unusually to me that the price sticking points are going to occur at various round numbers, even though some people are going to argue until they are blue in the face that there is some kind of manipulation or conspiracy... which seems like a decent amount of bullshit, even though if some one wants to attempt to manipulate, it is likely going to be a bit easier to attempt such manipulations and to attempt to take advantage of a pre-existing condition for as long as they are able to accomplish such.. and the longer the are successful in manipulating the price in such sticking point, then the more violent becomes the potential of the break out. Maybe, if we really are connoisseurs of violence, we will get "lucky" and have the BTC price maintained in the $10k arena for two more years... ?

In the good ole days, you used to 'fly off the rails", just like jbreher currently flies of the government agent rails for certain kinds of references in that direction or bawb might fly off the rails if I mention how opportunistic he can be.... I could name a few others, but I think that, for the moment, I have bit off enough personal bashenings in the ad hominem direction.

This is what your idol said https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/1156871402479325184Ok, Ok.. sorry I excluded you .. ADVICE FOR WOMEN: - Get as much as you can from a man as early as possible- Try not to get pregnant until you are 30. - Believe nothing a man says- practice deception. It will serve you well. - follow your heart.

Good job.
A few months ago I asked the members of WO: How they want statistics, with data or images? They prefer images  Thank you. I can give you plots (images), but they are boring plots with just 6 datapoints. I need more data to have attractive plots. If I don't have more datapoints, I do not need to draw boring plots. Here is the only data point I want to see.

Using Bitcoin, you will prevent your GF and your wife of getting as much as she can from you as early as possible.
Spread this as possible, It will help to get people buying Bitcoin. JJG, can you add it to your code.

Last night with my babe to celebrate the 10K$ again   Jealous drivel... Comme d'habitude. It hasn't a chance in hell of ever being in a scene like that. You must be trolling. It might be okay if this broad just wandered in off the street or something, but much like Trollgoossens, you can tell this guy puts in way too much work for it. That goes with the territory of any modern, western woman. Women collude and use collective bargaining power year after year stacking their fairy tale princess demands ever higher until the entire planet was turned into a gynocentric dystopia with people like this dude as their servants. Men used to run the world. Not anymore. You only exist to facilitate the frivolous desires of bimbos. Women have too much power and too high of demands to consider anything about the LTR viable now unless you're some guy that for whatever reason wants to have kids, then I suppose you're forced to deal with it. For some reason average men who make $50k a year forgot to collude with each other to tell women paying $50k+ for weddings (that they'll just want to get divorced from 2 years later then also take the rest of your money) is totally insane. Women are essentially an algorithm whose goal is to target a man and suck up all of it's time + resources. Unless you live in an extreme patriarchy that's ready to lay down the law on such foul creatures, or you're so rich you can just set money on fire and it doesn't even matter, then you will be living as an indentured servant.

She looks like a Cylon and sounds like one of their basestars. She thinks that Bitcoin is a very big deal, huge - and that size matters - do you agree with her?   You going to kick her out of bed for eating crackers, too? Roach will say that he would, but if he actually were to get such an opportunity, he would likely panic.
