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

Down before up?

Well, 1% of inflation per year would not destroy that argument; at most, it would delay the growth a little.  After all,  that growth of 1000% per year happened while the miners were creating an inflation of more than 10% per year.

By the time all of the 21 million are distributed it will be a world currency. The price will not rise from new users, it will hold its value.

Keynes need not be involved in the new world currency. He has done enough damage already.

coindesk's centralization scaling conference:












...

Is anyone here attending the conference, and is it like hdbuck's depiction of it? That had me rolling round on the floor in stitches of laughter. Are tickets for it really $1500? If they really cost that much then the scammers here would make more money organizing conferences than creating shitcoin IPOs.

Any substantive discussion on scaling will have to wait until the Hong Kong portion of the show. https://twitter.com/jgarzik/status/642397611178217472

Looks like there's not gonna be any resolution this weekend. Another good reason to support XT.

We already knew there would not be a resolution this weekend, only the possibility of a resolution at the next conference in Dec(?)

But have no doubt there will be lots from this conference to speculate about regarding the various possibilities of resolution.

I can hardly wait

I just want this debate to end. It's dumbing people down. It makes my brain go numb.

I wonder why anyone needs a bleedin' conference to make a decision. Maybe superior beings can only reach consensus when they're wearing a name tag and lining up an innocent intern to nail after they've pwned their panel discussion.

I still believe that bitcon's price will go to zero in a few years; but almost certainly not by that route...

Would you put money where your mouth is?

By keeping his money (instead "investing" it in BTCeanies or Bitcoin), that's exactly what he's doing.
So now you know

I think he meant wiring the money to a bucketshop and "shorting" Bitcoin, only to be told SFYL
But you're right.

Everything will go to zero in a few years, luckily useless computer scientists will be the first ones to die... so enjoy your last years as a troll.  You put a smile on my face every day.
