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

[ErisDiscordia]

This frustrates me as my support for Bitcoin is as a currency, not as some sort of replacement for gold to be exchanged and used for long term savings. The plan was to replace fiat...not just exchange value in fiat.

I have not seen anything to get my hopes up on this at all. When BitPay turned into BitCashPay we lost a major advance toward using Bitcoin as a currency. I have learned that BTCPay is a great solution for this but most companies just want to sign up for a service and have money deposited in their bank accounts.

My hope has always been that it will replace the dollar. Without the dollar, the US cannot print money out of nowhere to fund its endless wars.

Our collective operating system (culture) is lagging behind the possibilities provided by technology (as usual). In order to do things like replace the Dollar, the Bitcoin Network still needs to grow more nodes (users) and that takes time because updating operating systems in humans takes long, is exceedingly cumbersome and sometimes even impossible.

It may take a generation or two for Bitcoin's potential to be fully realized. That Max Planck quote comes to mind: "“A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.”"

I am convinced we'll get there. Let's be patient and keep working on it.

Christ all you people can't you stop talking for one rotten minute? Some of us are trying to think over here.

Gents, let the party begin. Momentum is on our side.

$8971.9 (78.6%) is likely to fall. then next mark is the AYH $9169.5 (100%).

GO BTC GO!

We don't use Bitfinex in these here parts in order to make BTC price references... especially if we are getting into discussions of ATH or AYH or any other general attempt to gauge the relative location or health status of our king daddy  

Accordingly, current AYH happens to be $9,188.10

Volume is still looking nice.

People seem confused and disorientated. Like they just got hit on the head with a hammer, while wearing a hat, before eating it.

Something is wrong with the mayor. seems confused. too much herb?

He's fine. He's right where I left him. Wrapped in plastic.

Now, can we please stay on topic.

I'm trying to think!

I may be naïve?


With a decent bit of money you can build/buy a reasonably good cooling structured building.



Everything for miles around is blasted out of existence every day. Zapped by the sun and the heat.


No more wanky flu germs!

and you got camels for comfort

[Globb0]

But why the hell IN LIGHT OF THE FACT THEY ARE PROVING THEMSELVES TO BE A SCAM is the price going UP?!??!??

Bitcoin Gold got 51% attacked again.

The price went up 18% on the good news.

Just feel and roll with it, baby.

No news is bad news

[soxxx]

Bitcoins above the 200 day moving average on the daily.....

Still, carriers who have virus inside and transmit via mucous (saliva) are immune to radiation from the outside.
For cooling you can build underground, with pretty constant temperature and humidity. clay would be the goto material for covering the walls.
Electric cooling still has the flaw of growing bacteria, unless you cool with water. And what if the cooling becomes defective, what about power outages, what about food?
Living from canned food for weeks? f*ck that, man  

Good idea, overall, but there are important downsides to be weighted.

introducing the unsurprising retrace. Then moon (at least another step towards the latter)

OK so I need some domes, and maybe a moat full of crocodiles

Deserts have snakes. If you want high radiation without bats, snakes or other wild animals, Mars is a good option. The low atmospheric pressure and therefore the need for pressurized spacesuits also help keeping bad stuff out, unless you share habitats, then all bets are off.

I used to have the perfect place to wait out this virus.

Then the Thai Navy got jealous.
