Good to be reminded about the fact that once upon a time Greeks were actually working.

Or wait a minute. They had slaves doing the work for them, right?

Disclaimer: sincere apologies to my Greek friends. I'm visiting your wonderful country with your delicious cuisine at least once a year, but I just couldn't let that one slip.

Don't forget that the Bavarians brought the financial system and the choke hold to Greece

Again, you are reading from the history books = bullshit

The statue is now in the land of the greeks, but no one can tell you who was in those sites when that was built or in the process of building, that is what the history books are missing 

Of course they know, it's from Archaic Greece period and they found lots of similar statues from that period, they call them Kouros https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kouros

That particular unfinished statue is either Apollo or Dionysos.

The most magnificent is Göbekli Tepe in Turkey. Not because of what they built, but because of when it was built. 11000 years ago, so in Neolithic and all was built with stone tools. Worth for everyone to google it and check.

Also worth mentioning is the ancient Greeks' methods of perspective correction when designing their monuments. It's amazing that such methods were used at that period of time. It screams "high-tech", even by today's standards!

Once again, they made a lot of clunks that looked like shit at a distance. This led them to design in the perpsective POV so people would pay them money to build buildings. The best ones are still around.

Interesting stuff, but no aliens needed.

The future is decentralision, not centralisation. BTC

'One day everyone will use China's digital currency'.

Chandler Guo was a pioneer in cryptocurrency, the digital currencies that can be created and used independently of national central banks and governments.

In 2014 he set up an operation to produce one of those currencies, Bitcoin, in a secret location in western China.

"Mining" Bitcoin is a power hungry enterprise involving dozens of computers so he used power from a hydroelectric station, in partnership with a local Chinese government official.

At its peak his machines were capable of mining 30% of the world's Bitcoin. He believed Bitcoin would one day change the world and replace the dollar.

But now he sees a new force emerging - a payment system created by the Chinese state and known as Digital Currency Electronic Payment (DCEP).

It's really a digital version of China's official currency, the yuan, and Mr Guo feels DCEP will become the dominant global currency. "One day everyone in the world will be using DCEP," he says.

It's a bit frustrating to see that we've had practically the same lows for 3 years (2018-2020), but if we look at the 2014-2016 period we can see a very similar situation.

Let's hope the price moons after this.

Great point.

So many of us get a bit deceived and delusional, even though we should not by these relatively flat periods that seem damned long while we are going through them.

There have been long ass period of seeming correlation between bitcoin and traditional markets - and that seeming correlation comes during these kinds of long ass periods of what is bitcoin's relatively flat performance.

Of course, we are not guaranteed further bitcoin price appreciation spikes, yet like you suggested, we likely felt very similarly from 2014 to 2016..... seems like such a long period, while we are suffering through it (those of us who are suffering with our glass half full perspectives - not really claiming myself to be in that doom and gloom camp - even while I appreciate that there are no guarantees).

Just another loser having sold their bitcoins and holding alt coin bags.

tbh it feels like 2011 to 2014 to me. lots of bleh with random noise tossed in. then the terror. then the disbelief. then the joy.. well still waiting on joy kinda in this cycle although im happy enough where we are.

Ah, so you saying it's well confirmed by math and science... ok.

So how old is Machu Picchu, then?
