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

[JorgeStolfi]

Approx. 8.5% xt nodes, almost there!
...
It's not even that I am against raising the limit. (within reason)  I'm mostly just irked by the fear mongering and panic and desperation-driven FUD coming out of the Hearn/Andresen camp.

And 0% XT blocks mined, which is what really matters.  But that in only 2 days, and there are still 6 months to go before the XT have reason to be embarassed.  

On the other hand, subscriptions to /r/bitcoin have been dropping (now at 171,663, 747 online).
On the other hand /r/bitcoin_uncensored got 1485 subscribers in 1-2 days, and another subreddit whose name cannot be uttered in diesen Heil'gen Hallen got 3,227.

did the main exchanges in the west and china comment on core/xt fork situation?

i dont think they will run both core and xt when the times comes or?

what a mess zz

most likely there will be no mess cause 75% miners acceptance won't be reached

is crypto done??

The possible complication is if the community gets stuck in a half-way state, with almost equal mining power on each side.  Then there may be two blockchains, lots of orphaned blocks and branches, etc..  

You don't want to know about that possibility; just pray that it does not happen, and, if it does, just stop issuing transaction until the impasse gets resolved as above.  Even after the critical block, all the unspent coins that were created before that block will remain there, no matter what happens.  

It was my understanding the XT fork will only take place if 75% of hashpower supports it. I suppose miners could change their minds after the fact, but otherwise a "half-way state" will not result in a fork.

Hash power could 'fake support it' i.e. pretend to be XT nodes but not actually fork. This could be a method to ensure a stillborn fork without enough hashpower.

Why did the image pass through my mind of a miner vigorously banging his head with a spoon?

You've been reading too much Gary Larson

It's interesting to see how much this thread recently changed from price movement discussions to block chain and other discussions.
Coming back to price discussions and bitcoin forecast, we see that the technical analysis methodology works fine to predict bitcoin prices. And with that, speculators and investors can save time. No need to worry about blockchains, hashes, etc. More info here: http://bullbearanalytics.com/bullbear-analytics/

I may not post a lot but I've been around for quite some time. It appears to me that the large majority of FUD is coming from the "Core" camp.

It's not just FUD. They have also used censorship and sabotage.

Thank you for saving us from the darkness that is OT. It certainly is the milk of the dark one.

So all I have to do is pay you $300 and I'll get to buy a boat? How can I lose!?!?

You ungrateful git. Every boat you buy is one that he is deliberately foregoing so he can share the good.  

And all can be done by ignoring fundamentals. Seems legit....
